Lu Beichen.
Lu Beichen was still suspended in the air. His face was pale and his body was thin.
Gu Jingyan's heart tightened. She wondered if the motionless man had already … passed away.
"Lu Beichen!" She screamed and threw herself at him.
Seeing that he was securely tied to the rope, she took out a dagger from her leather boots. The dagger could cut through iron as if it was mud, and she cut the rope on his hands in one go.
Lu Beichen fell into the water with a splash.
Gu Jingyan quickly hugged Lu Beichen.
"Lu Beichen, wake up, wake up …" She reached out and patted his cheek hard.
Lu Beichen was in a daze. He felt as if he was in a warm embrace.
He had been feeling cold and damp recently. He had forgotten how long it had been since he had felt so warm.
He finally forced himself to open his eyes. He squinted at Gu Jingyan.
"Jing … Jingyan?"
For a moment, he thought that he was dreaming.
Wasn't she still in the country? Why was she here?
Gu Jingyan touched his hand. "It's me, it's me. How are you?"
She rubbed his cold hand, but it was useless.
She knew that if she didn't bring him out soon, he would be half-dead even if he didn't die. He might even suffer from a lingering illness.
She quickly pulled him up. "I'm here to save you. Let's go out. They've been lured to the back, but they'll be here soon."
Lu Beichen murmured and nodded, forcing himself to stand up.
Outside, the Gu family's bodyguards rushed over.
The few of them helped to drag Lu Beichen out of the room.
But Lu Beichen didn't want to let go of Gu Jingyan's hand. He held on to her hand and mumbled, "Gu Jingyan, do you remember how surprised I was when I first saw you in school?"
"Gu Jingyan, I couldn't stand you being so good."
"Gu Jingyan, I didn't want you to be the campus belle either."
"My score could have been higher than yours. It's true. I just couldn't bear to do it."
At this moment, Gu Jingyan wanted to laugh.
What nonsense was he talking about?
She said, "Alright, stop talking. Save some energy to run."
"What if I die …"
"Fool, you won't die!" How could she allow him to die?
He was Apple's father.
"If I die, everything under my name will be handed over to you."
"…"
What was he talking about?
However, Gu Jingyan felt a strange warmth in her heart. Although feelings couldn't be measured with money, the trust he gave her made her feel that she was valued.
She paused for a moment before continuing, "Alright, I got it. Don't say anymore, or else I'll want to murder my husband."
Lu Beichen was taken aback by those words.
Murder her husband?
"You said I'm your husband?"
"…"
Gu Jingyan hurriedly said, "I was wrong. Okay, anyway, don't talk anymore. Don't talk anymore."
But in that instant, Lu Beichen felt as if he had come back to life.
But at this moment, they met.
The Arabs were coming.
"Gu Jingyan, run!"
Lu Beichen immediately exerted his strength and began to walk forward.
Although it was weak, at least he could walk.
Gu Jingyan looked at the people in front of her and stopped.
They didn't expect a woman to be able to find this place and kill so many of their brothers with a bomb. She also lured the tiger away from the mountain.
"Haha, I've heard that the people from Country C are very cunning. Indeed …"
Gu Jingyan looked at them and said, "We don't have any enmity with each other. If you let me go, we'll pretend that nothing happened. Anyway, it's just a small misunderstanding, right?"
They pointed at the pile of corpses behind them and said, "Look, those corpses are our brothers. They died because of you."
Gu Jingyan smiled and said, "If your relatives were tied up like this, you'd be so angry that you'd want to kill them too. You're in the wrong in the first place."
"We don't care who's in the wrong now. Anyway, don't think about leaving here. Don't even think about …"
As the Arabian man spoke, he raised his gun and pointed it at them.
Lu Beichen stood in front of Gu Jingyan.
He looked at the people in front of him with a tragic expression.
But at this moment …
There was a gunshot.
But it wasn't the one in front of them. It was the one behind them.
The Arab who was holding the gun fell to the ground. The blood on his forehead said it all.
He was dead.
Someone shot him in the forehead from behind.
Gu Jingyan looked up and saw a group of people behind her. The Gu family's bodyguards had already rushed in.
She was stunned for a moment and then realized who it was.
Damn it, it was Gu Jingze.
Didn't Second Brother say that he wouldn't come?
Lu Beichen heaved a sigh of relief. He looked outside and said, "No wonder you came in on your own. So there's someone outside to help you. It must be Gu Jingze's plan."
She knew that Gu Jingze was a sly old fox.
Gu Jingyan's face darkened.
"What plan? I don't even know about it. How can it be called a plan?"
"What?"
Gu Jingyan said, "I said, I didn't know he would come."
"…"
Lu Beichen suddenly understood.
Gu Jingyan murmured, "Oh, he let me lure them out first. When the fight was almost over, his men came to finish it off. Really …"
Lu Beichen also understood.
Really …
What a sly old fox.
As expected, the people inside were quickly cleaned up by someone.
And Gu Jingze was walking in from outside, not a speck of dust could be seen.
Looking at the suit that was not even wrinkled, Gu Jingyan cursed in her heart. Then she said, "You still came."
"Looks like these people can't withstand a single blow." Gu Jingze smiled and praised Gu Jingyan, "You did a good job of luring the tiger away from the mountain."
"…"
Gu Jingyan wanted to say more, but Lu Beichen's body couldn't take it anymore.
Seeing that Lu Beichen was about to fall, Gu Jingyan hurriedly held him.
Gu Jingze gave a look behind him and the people below immediately helped Lu Beichen up.
Together, they helped Lu Beichen out of this damp and cold place.
In the hospital.
Gu Jingze said to Lin Che, "He's fine. You didn't have to rush here."
Lin Che hurried over. Seeing that Gu Jingyan was inside, he tactfully didn't go in and disturb her.
"What about those Arabs …"
"There are no Arabs left."
"…"
They were all wiped out?
Alright.
Lin Che said, "The Williams sent this invitation. Take a look."
Gu Jingze took the gold-lined invitation and nodded. "Okay, let's go."
