Chapter 108: Something Happened

The unexpected attack caused Gu Lingling a moment of panic, but she quickly calmed down, her mind coolly recalling the techniques Yang Yunhai had taught her.

She hadn’t expected that just as she made her move, the opponent seemed to know her intentions in advance and intercepted her.

"It’s me." A familiar deep voice sounded in Gu Lingling’s ear.

How could it be Yang Yunhai?

Wasn’t he out on a mission?

"Don’t make a sound, can you climb up there?" He pointed to the old elm tree in front.

Gu Lingling nodded, and Yang Yunhai pushed her up the tree.

Gu Lingling stayed on the tree, her whole body cold, and held Yang Yunhai’s hand, "That’s my brother..."

"Don’t worry, I’ll definitely bring him back safely. Wait for me to return, don’t come down until I do." Yang Yunhai patted the girl’s slender and white hand, his voice as deep and charming as ever.

Gu Lingling’s originally restless heart was instantly soothed.

The old elm tree was very thick, and hidden there, no one could see Gu Lingling, of course, she couldn’t see anything else either, only faintly seeing Yang Yunhai quietly moving along the wall forward.

Time passed minute by minute.

Just when Gu Lingling was wondering whether to go down and see what was happening, she suddenly heard gunshots from the front.

Why were there gunshots?

Gu Lingling was suddenly flustered.

Just as she wanted to jump down from the tree, she heard hurried footsteps, "Don’t run, stop!"

Gu Lingling was startled, quickly hid her body, and saw a man in a black leather jacket running towards this side.

Then came another gunshot, seemingly hitting the man’s leg in the leather jacket, and he fell backward.

Rolling in pain.

Suddenly, Gu Lingling felt a chill as if the man had seen her.

The man’s cold gaze glared at Gu Lingling, making her feel that her heart was about to jump out.

She had never seen such a terrifying gaze.

"Let’s see you run now." Finally, someone ran over, kicked the man in the leather jacket twice, and swiftly handcuffed him.

It was Liu Jun, whom she hadn’t seen for a long time.

Gu Lingling covered her mouth in shock.

As Liu Jun dragged the leather jacket man away, he gave Gu Lingling hiding in the tree a meaningful look.

"Come down." Yang Yunhai’s voice came from below the tree, looking at Gu Lingling’s pale face, he frowned, "Were you scared just now? It’s all over now."

His voice was softly gentle, he directly pulled her down from the tree.

"I... I..." Gu Lingling hesitated about whether to tell Yang Yunhai what had just happened.

"What’s wrong?" Yang Yunhai looked at her, "Did you see Liu Jun? That man has been a criminal we’ve been pursuing recently. It’s over, don’t be scared."

He patted her back.

"I think he saw me." Gu Lingling said in a low voice.

"Are you sure?" Yang Yunhai frowned.

Gu Lingling nodded.

"It’s okay, he won’t be coming out again in his lifetime." Yang Yunhai comforted, "Let’s go see a child who got injured in front, see if you recognize him?"

"Is it my brother?" Gu Lingling urgently grabbed Yang Yunhai’s hand, "I’ll go see."

Then she let go of his hand and hurriedly ran forward.

Forgetting that Yang Yunhai only mentioned there was a child, not Yao Jingsong.

Yang Yunhai stared at his hand, the one Gu Lingling had pulled, filled with calluses, clearly his own hand, yet why did it feel so different today?
