Chapter 1240 - 1310: We Were Wrong

"We..." An’an wanted to say something, but Chen Huaying already apologized with guilt. "Minister Hai, we were wrong."

Damn, being stared at silently by Su Huai’an like this really made her nervous!

"Come back with me! I don’t think Sheng Ning would want to see you two get caught. One of you is her best friend, and the other is her beloved sister."

"But I can’t stop worrying, I’m scared." An’an’s stubborn little face finally showed a trace of vulnerability and panic, "I’m afraid I’ll never see my sister again once I close my eyes."

"Trust me, we all care about Sheng Ning very much." Hai Yunfeng wished he could hold his precious daughter in his arms, comfort her, and spoil her as he did when she was little.

But he knew Bao’er hadn’t accepted him yet.

"Let’s go back!" Chen Huaying was the first to give up. Even though she had a gun in her hand moments ago, she wasn’t confident she could kill Li Xia. This was a huge blow to her, destroying all the confidence she’d ever had.

She had been too arrogant before, thinking there was no mountain higher than hers. Once she returned and came out of confinement, she had to work hard and train diligently.

"Okay!"

An’an’s willingness to go back showed that she had listened to him, which made Hai Yunfeng smile with a hint of joy.

"Chen Huaying, you’ll ride with Huai’an, and An’an will come with me in my car." After giving his instructions, Hai Yunfeng took An’an to the car first.

Chen Huaying stood there in a daze, "I... you can’t just leave me behind!"

"And me!" Su Huai’an finally spoke, forcefully pulling her hand into the passenger seat of his car.

"Hehehe..." Chen Huaying laughed awkwardly, not expecting half of it before Su Huai’an bit her shoulder. Through her clothes, she could feel his soft and burning lips.

Her cheeks turned red, and she naively pulled her clothing down a bit, exposing her right smooth and fair shoulder. There was a shallow bite mark, but it felt like it had been etched into her bones.

"What are you doing?" Su Huai’an was almost infuriated by her, "You’re a girl, who told you to pull your clothes like that?"

"Ah? Oh!" Chen Huaying snapped back to reality and hastily fixed her clothes.

Su Huai’an glared at her, stepping on the gas pedal to catch up with Hai Yunfeng’s car.

"When you get back, you’re going into confinement and writing a ten thousand-word reflection." He was really infuriated by her, doing whatever she pleased without any organization or discipline. She was bold enough to tear a hole in the sky.

It was bad enough that she stole his gun, but she also dared to steal one from the shooting range. Couldn’t she have taken a better look when she sneaked into his room to steal the gun? Would it have killed her to search a few more drawers?

He had such a collection of guns; wasn’t it enough to take a few from there without having to steal from the shooting range?

She was truly beyond help.

"Did they leave?" Xu Qigang put down the telescope and asked Chen Yingjie.

"Yes, it’s in the hands of Minister Hai and Su Huai’an."

"That’s good!" When he observed An’an hiding behind the barrel through the telescope just now, Xu Qigang broke out in a cold sweat. Xiao Ning’s situation was dangerous enough; he couldn’t let anything happen to An’an.

Seeing Xiao Ning being tortured just now hurt him more than anyone else, making him long to rush over immediately. But he couldn’t; he was not only a husband but also a rescue comrade.

At times like this, one must remain calm.

Chen Yingjie picked up his telescope to observe the distance, and was startled to find Li Xia holding Sheng Ning hostage and talking with a few men.

He had only been away for ten minutes, and suddenly so many people appeared?
