Ma Qiqi was stunned after cursing in one breath. She was clearly there to ask for help from Nianzhi!
How did it become hatred?!
She wanted to die so badly …
What if Huo Shao got angry and didn't save Nianzhi?
Ma Qiqi opened her mouth again, but when she saw Huo Shaoheng's cold and stern gaze, her earlier anger instantly dissipated. She wanted to find a hole to hide in.
Most of the people present were dumbstruck and couldn't react for a moment.
The room had been full of laughter a moment ago, but now it was completely silent. It was as if Ma Qiqi's clear voice was still echoing in everyone's ears.
The director of the TV station was the first to react and immediately cut off the live broadcast.
Actually, their live broadcast wasn't a real live broadcast. It was delayed by five minutes to facilitate immediate censorship and to deal with unexpected situations like this.
Therefore, the clip of Ma Qiqi scolding Huo Shao wasn't broadcast at all.
Other than the people present, no other TV viewers saw this scene.
…
Gu Nianzhi, who was taken away by Reinitz, found herself back in the small villa she used to live in.
She sneered internally, but her body was exhausted. Reinitz placed her on the chaise longue she used to curl up in.
Reinitz brought her milk, cake, and her favorite white sausage and bread. He placed them on the small coffee table in front of her, but she didn't want to eat them at all. She turned to look out the window, her stubborn expression giving Reinitz a headache.
He didn't know how to comfort her, and it was awkward for the two of them to not talk in the room. He brought his laptop over and searched for Huaxia Empire videos for her to watch.
He randomly clicked on the most popular video on Huaxia Empire social media.
Gu Nianzhi saw "Huo Shaoheng" in the title of the video and was immediately captivated. She couldn't help watching it.
Seeing that she was interested in something, Reinitz finally sighed in relief. He walked to the window and leaned against the windowsill to study Gu Nianzhi with narrowed eyes.
Gu Nianzhi quietly watched the video and slowly straightened. Her expression went from excitement to paleness and emptiness. It was as if she had instantly gone from the height of summer to the depths of winter.
The high-definition screen on the laptop showed the scene of Huo Shaoheng and Tan Guiren walking down the plane stairs together.
She watched him get off the plane, watched him listen to what others were saying, watched him smile, watched him help the Prime Minister's daughter, who almost sprained her ankle, and watched cute children send flowers to welcome the couple.
As for him, he casually accepted the bouquet from the Prime Minister's daughter. It was so natural and casual, as though he had done it thousands of times before. In Gu Nianzhi's eyes, there was a strange tacit understanding between them.
Gu Nianzhi smiled as she read. She didn't realize she was crying until there was a small pool of water on the keyboard.
She wiped her tears and continued to smile at the computer. Her big black pupils were like the dark night that had been washed by the rain. They were crystal clear, but there was no end to them.
Reinitz had been watching her from the window. He watched her smile and cry. It was like watching a flower that hadn't bloomed to its fullest, but had already bloomed to its fullest.
Gu Nianzhi's hopeless smile hurt him. He was about to speak when he suddenly heard the rumbling of a car outside the window, followed by the sound of orderly footsteps coming from all directions.
Then, he heard a cold and indifferent voice coming from outside the window.
It was standard Hanoverian German.
"Reinitz, you have eight people here. We've already locked on to their positions. Don't worry, we all have armor-piercing bullets. We can guarantee a headshot through the wall. If you know what's good for you, put down your weapons, line up at the door, and crouch down with your hands on your head. I'll count to three. If you don't leave, I won't be polite. I'll warn you again. Do not touch Nianzhi. If any of you take a step in her direction, I promise you'll immediately be covered in blood. You can try if you don't believe me. "
He Zhichu's voice came from outside the window. Gu Nianzhi didn't know what device he was using to transmit the message, but his voice was so clear it sounded like it was right beside her ear.
But Gu Nianzhi didn't move. She was like a clay statue. She didn't hear him at all.
Reinitz sighed and looked down to see a small red dot where his heart was. He knew it was the laser guidance system's location. He Zhichu was even using such a weapon. They really couldn't fight him head-on.
He shook his head and said into his Bluetooth headset, "Retreat."
Then his people walked out of the small villa. They threw their weapons out the window and walked out the door with their hands on their heads.
They saw He Zhichu and dozens of masked men with heavy weapons standing in the open space outside the door.
There were several cars behind him. They were obviously bulletproof and as sturdy as armored vehicles. They were going to war …
Reinitz didn't start a fight with him. Instead, he looked at him silently and reached out to point at him. Then he turned around and squatted down with his men with their hands on their heads.
A masked man walked up and pointed a gun at Reinitz and his men. He stared at them and didn't let them move.
He Zhichu was the first to rush into Reinitz's small villa.
As soon as he entered, he saw a skinny girl sitting dazedly on a chaise lounge in a small, warmly decorated living room. There was a laptop in front of her, and her eyes were fixed on the laptop, as if she wanted to see through the screen.
He Zhichu's heart ached. He quickly walked over and hugged Gu Nianzhi. "Nianzhi, I'll take you home."
Gu Nianzhi's eyes were blank. She slowly looked up and saw the person standing in front of her. He Zhichu.
Her dark eyes shifted, and large tears finally flowed out. Gu Nianzhi buried her head in his arms.
Gu Nianzhi buried her head in his chest. At first, she only cried quietly, but her whole body gradually trembled, then sobbed, and finally wailed. Her cries were so painful that even the expressionless mercenaries, who were used to licking blood and killing as a profession, couldn't bear it and looked away one by one.
He Zhichu hugged her tightly and kept stroking her back to comfort her.
She cried until she almost fainted.
"Professor He, I'm so sad! I'm so sad! It's even worse than when they hit me and electrocuted me! I'm being tortured here, and he's beside another woman. He even helps her sprain her ankle … I can't stand it! I really can't stand it! I know it's not his fault. I know he definitely doesn't know what happened to me! But I still feel bad! I still blame him! I was wrong! I was wrong! I was wrong! I'm not that great! I'm selfish! I'm petty! I'm not presentable! I don't care about the big picture! I don't have a father or a mother! I'm not a Ms. Perfect! I'm just a little beggar who was picked up! I shouldn't have wishful thinking! I don't deserve to be with him! I reap what I sow! I deserve it! I deserve it! I deserve it! "
She said "I deserve it" three times in a row. Her whole body was convulsing from crying, and she was on the verge of breaking down.
He Zhichu felt like a knife was being twisted in his heart, and tears rolled down his cheeks. "Nianzhi, you're not … You're not … It's my fault … Come home with me … I'll take you home …"
Gu Nianzhi cried until she fainted. He Zhichu carried her out of Reinitz's villa and quickly got into the car.
Reinitz and his men were temporarily tied up there, so He Zhichu didn't have much time to retreat.
He Zhichu used all his connections and bribed them with astronomical prices to find Reinitz's stronghold and successfully rescue Gu Nianzhi.
They rushed and finally boarded their private plane before Reinitz and his men were rescued. They flew out of German airspace.
…
On the tarmac in front of Terminal T3 in the Hua Xia Empire's imperial capital, a sudden accident happened.
The bodyguards of the new First Lady, Cai Songyin, turned pale with fright as soon as Ma Qiqi screamed. A few burly men immediately rushed over and hugged Ma Qiqi from behind to cover her mouth. Two other people held her on both sides, and one of them slapped her face several times.
Ma Qiqi had never been hit like this in her entire life, and the person's hand was heavy. She was stunned immediately, and her cute round face immediately swelled up as tears fell uncontrollably.
She didn't want to cry in front of so many people, but it really hurt …
In that instant, she could only think of when Gu Nianzhi was electrocuted. It must have been a thousand times more painful than what she was feeling right now.
Ma Qiqi began to cry even more sadly.
However, the bodyguards didn't care whether she lived or died. They frantically covered her mouth and only wanted to drag her away immediately.
Tan Guiren was furious when she saw this.
She had never been used to seeing others bully the weak, let alone slapping an innocent girl in front of her!
"Let her go! Let her go! " Tan Guiren quickly walked over and pointed at the bodyguards. She said sternly, "Let her go right now! In broad daylight, is there still any law?! "
The bodyguards froze and couldn't help but look at Tan Guiren's mother, Cai Songyin.
Cai Songyin gave them a look, and they finally let go.
Tan Guiren quickly hugged Ma Qiqi and took out a handkerchief to wipe her tears. She said, "Don't be afraid. No one will dare to hit you again."
Ma Qiqi pushed her away and said angrily, "Who wants you to pretend to be nice? Go away! Don't touch me! "
Tan Guiren took a few steps back in shock and looked at her mother, Cai Songyin, at a loss. Then she looked at Huo Shaoheng behind her.
Huo Shaoheng's expression was normal, and she couldn't tell what he was thinking. However, his deep eyes carried a heavy sense of pressure. Even Tan Guiren didn't dare to look at him for too long. One look was enough to scare her and she quickly looked away.
Cai Songyin didn't say anything and only pulled on Tan Guiren's hand to indicate that she shouldn't be nosy.
Cai Songyin's bodyguards surrounded Ma Qiqi again and grabbed her arms from both sides. Another person gagged her mouth.
At that moment, Yin Shixiong caught up from behind. His hand was like a knife as he quickly snatched Ma Qiqi from the hands of the bodyguards. Then, he coldly warned the First Lady, Cai Songyin, who was smiling as she watched from the side. "Mrs. Tan, your husband hasn't officially taken office yet, but your bodyguards have already severely injured our citizen. I think many people will be very interested in this piece of news."
Cai Songyin smiled and said casually, "If they're interested, then they'll be interested. They rely on this to make a living, so we can't ruin their livelihood, right? "
She wasn't at all worried about how the media would write about their family.
At that moment, the Secret Service security guards who were maintaining order at the airport also rushed over. They pointed at Ma Qiqi and said to Yin Shixiong, "This person trespassed on the restricted area of the airport and may have broken the law. Please hand her over to us."
Of course, Yin Shixiong didn't want to, but he could handle Cai Songyin's bodyguards alone, but he couldn't handle the elite Secret Service agents who were also soldiers.
Soon, Ma Qiqi was taken over by the Secret Service. One person grabbed Ma Qiqi's arm and clamped it behind her back. Another female agent took out handcuffs and was about to put them on Ma Qiqi.
Huo Shaoheng had been silent on the side, but his brows gradually furrowed. It wasn't until he saw Yin Shixiong appear that his brows couldn't help twitching.
His heart sank.
Ma Qiqi's words couldn't have been baseless. Something had really happened to Nianzhi.
He didn't believe it at first. How could he not know something had happened to Nianzhi with the strict security measures he had put in place?
At first, he thought Ma Qiqi was making a mountain out of a molehill. After all, she was only a student who had always been in school. Perhaps she would cry for three days if her boyfriend cheated on her.
But now, even Yin Shixiong was helping her. It seemed like this was no small matter.
Huo Shaoheng threw away the flowers in his hand and strode over to Ma Qiqi. He stood in front of her with his hands behind his back and said dryly to the Secret Service agent, "Let her go."
The Secret Service agent in charge of security refused. Moreover, they were now part of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and not under the jurisdiction of the military. Therefore, he could only say, "Chief, please don't make it difficult for us. We …"
Huo Shaoheng didn't wait for him to finish. He pulled out his gun without hesitation and pressed it against the man's chest. "Are you going to let her go or not?"
"Gun!"
"He's going to shoot!"
The people present immediately screamed hysterically and began to push and shove as they ran in all directions.
Fortunately, the director of the TV station had already cut off the live broadcast. At that moment, even the cameras were about to be smashed. They hurriedly led their reporters and cameramen to hide inside the terminal.
However, the entrance to the terminal was blocked by a group of armed soldiers. It was the people Yin Shixiong had brought.
All of them had their guns loaded and pointed outwards at the people who wanted to enter.
Huo Shaoheng's eyes narrowed slightly. His finger lightly tapped the trigger, and the gun made a light click.
The Secret Service agent who had clamped Ma Qiqi's hands behind her back immediately let go. Yin Shixiong quickly half-supported and half-hugged Ma Qiqi.
Zhao Liangze had just gotten off the plane. Seeing the chaos, he quickly ran over and asked, "What happened?"
Yin Shixiong said anxiously, "I'll tell you in the car! I brought everything! "
Huo Shaoheng strode towards the terminal door. Yin Shixiong held Ma Qiqi's hand. "You come with us."
Ma Qiqi's face was streaked with tears. She choked out, "Are you still going to save Nianzhi?!"
"Of course!" Yin Shixiong said without hesitation. He took her hand and walked quickly behind Huo Shaoheng.
Zhao Liangze finally understood that something had happened to Gu Nianzhi!
He immediately said to Yin Shixiong, "Big Xiong, did you bring your phone? I didn't bring my work phone, so I can't connect to the system. "
He wanted to immediately connect to the Special Operations Forces' central control system so that he could activate the satellite tracking system to locate Gu Nianzhi.
Yin Shixiong's face darkened. He shook his head and said, "The system in the car can be used. You can use that."
Zhao Liangze knew something was wrong. Something big must have happened. His expression also became serious.

This was the first chapter of the 4,000-word chapter. Seeing how anxious everyone was, he didn't separate it into two installments.
A reminder for everyone's recommendation votes!
There won't be any more chapters today.
