Chapter 1044: The Story of Ling and Heng (307)
At this moment, such an act was tantamount to courting death.
Feng Ling struggled to look back at him but was still pushed to the door by the man. She glanced at the windows and reached out to pull him. “Li Nanheng!”
“You go first!” Li Nanheng seized every minute to let her leave first without any hesitation. “Go!”
Almost at that instant, Feng Ling, who was very familiar with sniper rifles, suddenly glanced out the window and shouted, “Watch out—-”
At the moment when the bullet shot in through the window, Li Nanheng grabbed Feng Ling’s arm and led her to bend down to dodge the bullet. The bullet made a huge noise on the wall and it was followed by another shot. Li Nanheng frowned when he saw that Feng Ling had not been able to get out of this room. What he was worried about was that Raisa and her companion might have small explosives tied to them. If Feng Ling stayed here, she might be implicated.
He had no time to think about it though. He dragged Feng Ling to hide behind the sofa and pressed her head into his arms. The bullets shot through the window one after another with a loud noise. The whole room was filled with the smell of gunpowder smoke and the tranquility of this community was completely broken.
Feng Ling raised her head from his arms. Li Nanheng glanced outside and then looked down at her, whispering, “Their target is me. Don’t get involved. Just run away if you can.”
“Then what about you?” Feng Ling clenched his cuff. “Let’s run out together.”
“If I run out with you, the bullets will also follow! How many innocent people are outside? Don’t forget the mission of XI Base. We are not crazy enough to sacrifice innocent people for our own heroism. What is behind us are the military and the police!” With that, he suddenly pulled her out of his arms. “Go!”
Feng Ling was still holding his cuff. “Let’s go together!”
Knowing how stubborn she was in nature, Li Nanheng gazed at her helplessly. When the sofa behind them was riddled with bullets, he stared into her eyes and suddenly laughed. “I won’t die. Do you think I’ll be moved? No! I don’t want to die together with you.”
Feng Ling: “…”
Who wanted to move him? This shameless bastard!
She yanked his sleeves hard. “Go with me!”
They couldn’t stay here any longer. Otherwise, the only barrier in this room—-the sofa, would be completely blasted.
Li Nanheng frowned and was about to get up. At this moment, Raisa, who had been lying on the ground, slowly moved her hand towards her own calf. Bullets kept shooting in from the three windows behind, and Li Nanheng pulled Feng Ling up and ran to the door, holding her firmly in his arms and walking out.
The two of them moved quickly and skillfully avoided the bullets behind them. However, when they were about to step out the door, Raisa had successfully taken out the miniature silencer gun hidden in the hidden pocket on her trousers, aimed at Li Nanheng and Feng Ling, and fired a shot.
The bullets from the sniper rifles were so loud that Feng Ling could not hear the muffled sound of the silencer gun. She only noticed that Li Nanheng suddenly turned his body sideways and froze, but after a short while, when she looked up at him, she could only see the man’s chiseled chin but could not see his instantly paled face. He rushed out with her in his arms.
Finally rushing out of the door, Li Nanheng took her to hide behind a wall. He panted violently and said, “There should be people lurking in the stairways and the elevator. You go down alone. They don’t know you and won’t do anything to you even if they meet you in the elevator.”
However, Feng Ling turned around and pushed open the door of the stairways and took a look. After checking around, she turned around and was about to call him, only to see that the wall behind the man was stained with blood. Her eyebrows immediately twitched. “Are you injured?”
“It’s okay. Just a small injury.” Li Nanheng gasped. His face was ghastly pale, but he didn’t even frown. He smiled at her. “Just quickly go!”
Feng Ling suddenly remembered the movement of Raisa just now. At that time, in order to avoid the bullets of the sniper rifle outside the window, the situation was urgent. She ignored that although the gun of the Asian man had dropped to the ground, the woman named Resa hadn’t taken out any gun. They forgot that she might have a gun!
She didn’t hear the sound and hadn’t found the gun on Raisa’s body. It must be a special kind of miniature silencer gun.
Feng Ling didn’t say anymore but stepped forward to hold the man’s arm. “Go!”
Li Nanheng looked at her. “I said, quickly go! Didn’t you hear me?”
Feng Ling looked at him with deep and cold eyes. “Boss Li, if you were me now, will you go?”
“Why not?! Don’t you hate me and are disgusted by me?” Li Nanheng laughed but slightly tremble because his laugh pulled the injury on his back. He held back the pain and said nothing.
Looking at his pale face, Feng Ling didn’t refute or admit it, her face grim. She dragged his arm hard, turned to push open the door of the stairway, and forcibly dragged him in.
Li Nanheng staggered, and after being forcibly dragged in, he glanced at the stairway, which seemed quiet, but based on his experience, there must be people lurking around. But it was safer than the elevator where they might be ambushed.
Feng Ling took the gun out of him, held it in one hand, and helped him down with the other. “Let’s go!”
Even if Li Nanheng was badly injured, he could walk by himself, but Feng Ling insisted on holding him. If they continued to waste any time here, none of them would be able to escape.
The man who was being dragged by her sighed. “No rush. Don’t fall over.”
Feng Ling looked back at him. “Are you going or not?”
Li Nanheng’s face was pale and his lips turned pale too. Seeing her angry and impatient eyes, he sighed and smiled. “Fine, I’m going with you.”
