Zhou Zhilei's clothes were creased. Her hair was an absolute mess, and it made her look dishevelled. She nodded her head solemnly, "Older Brother Ming, Tony is banking on the fact that he has a hostage in his hands, so we would not choose to take action on him to use weaponry to catch him. He dares to be so arrogant, and now he wants to escape. We can only choose to catch him."
Lu Shaoming grunted slightly for a few seconds, and his thin lips moved, wanting to order the next step.
At this moment, "Shaoming." Ning Qing ran over to their direction.
Everyone's gaze in the big lounge focused on Ning Qing. Ning Qing ran to Lu Shaoming's side and tugged on his sleeve as she said, "Shaoming, you cannot go. There is danger!"
At this moment, Zhou Zhilei saw her enemy, Ning Qing, and was especially jealous. She went to open the door a half an hour ago, and a service staff member who had been bribed by Ning Qing blocked her mouth with a towel, then the worker dragged her into a neighbouring room and locked her inside and only let her come out half an hour later.
When she came out and went to look for Lu Shaoming again, there was a bright lamp in the room, and there was still a thick scent in the air that had not dissipated. Lu Shaoming did not have a top on, and his back faced her while he put on his belt.
She looked at his handsome and straight back, there were many scratch marks. She did not have to guess to know what had happened just now.
Ning Qing was too shameless.
Zhou Zhilei laughed coldly and said, "Miss Ning, what are you talking about? Don't you know that this is a critical time? Don't spout nonsense when you do not know a single thing. If you waste a single minute of Older Brother Ming's time, the pregnant woman will be in more danger as time passes."
The director of the factory and some workers saw Ning Qing coming out and they came to stop her. They all stretched out their fingers to point at her and chide her, "Young lady, we will ask you to leave immediately. Don't waste our time; let us focus on our work."
Ning Qing did not take their opinions to heart, and she only looked towards Lu Shaoming and said, "Shaoming, don't go. There is danger out there, that pregnant lady was saved by me."
"What, you saved my wife?" The director of the factory heard her words and was very agitated.
Lu Shaoming lowered his gaze to look at the girl. He had yet to speak, but Zhou Zhilei laughed mockingly and said, "Miss Ning, is it okay for you to be blurting out nonsense right now? You do not even understand the situation at hand, and you also do not know the pregnant lady. How did you get to save her? Okay, let me ask you then. Where is the pregnant lady you saved then? Why did she not come over with you?"
"Her entire body is weak, and her steps were taking too long. She will probably need another few minutes before she can get here. I ran over first to let you all know. Shaoming, you really cannot go. It is very dangerous outside. Tony..."
"Enough Miss Ning, how much longer do you want to continue to keep lying for? You keep asking Older Brother Ming not to go, and you are actually thinking of having him all to yourself. Miss Ning, don't you think that you are being selfish right now? There is a 6 month old baby in the pregnant woman's belly right now. If anything goes wrong, it will end with 2 deaths in one body."
The director of the factory and the workers all channelled their gazes over to Zhou Zhilei's side and said, "That's right, young lady. We do not believe you. We all trust Miss Zhou instead. Miss Zhou is Young Master Lu's girlfriend. She has been with all throughout all these days and battled together with us. We ask you to leave as soon as possible."
"Exactly, you looked like such an innocent and beautiful young lady. I didn't think that you would be so cunning. You actually bear to ignore a pregnant woman and leave her all alone."
"I think you are here to fight with for Young Master Lu. Miss Zhou is trustworthy, and all you know is to fight for a man. Please leave quickly, don't hamper our effort to save this woman..."
The workers spoke more and their words got more and more insulting. Ning Qing firmly tugged on Lu Shaoming's sleeves and slowly shook her head, "Shaoming, please trust me, you really cannot go. I..."
At this moment, the bodyguard bent down by Lu Shaoming's ear and whispered, "Young Master Lu, if we do not take action now, we won't have another opportunity to do so. Tony is already preparing to board the plane."
"Sii." Ning Qing scrunched up her eyebrows tightly and grunted out in pain.
Lu Shaoming quickly held onto her small, cold hand and worriedly asked in a low voice, "What is wrong?"
At this moment, Zhou Zhilei laughed coldly and said, "Miss Ning, have you gotten enough of what you wanted? You saw that you couldn't persuade Older Brother Ming to stay, and so you chose such a shoddy method..."
The workers all wanted to agree with her once again.
At this moment, Lu Shaoming looked sideways and his cold and sharp gaze that resembled a hawk's scanned the group, and the crowd only felt a cold breeze go down their backs eerily and trembled in fear.
Everyone got silent and shut their mouths.
Seeing him protecting her, Ning Qing felt warm inside her heart, and even the pain in her abdomen area seemed to lessen significantly. She continued, "Shaoming, trust me, What I am saying is all the truth..."
Lu Shaoming held onto her small hand, slowly shook her hand off the sleeve of his shirt, and said, "Ning Qing, stop making a fuss now. I have other matters that I am busy with. Isn't your body feeling uncomfortable? I will ask someone to bring you back to your room to rest. You give me some time. I will come to accompany you when I am done handling these matters; be obedient."
Ning Qing's eyes contracted, and she withdrew her small hand, taking two steps back."Shaoming, even you don't believe me?"
Lu Shaoming looked at her small pale face and her lost eyes and tightly knitted his brows together. He did not know if it was because he was hard on her in the room just now, but her small hands were icy cold.
"Young Master Lu, let us proceed with our plans quickly. My wife is still in Tony's hands, " the director of the factory hurriedly shouted.
Lu Shaoming withdrew his gaze from Ning Qing's face and he nodded his head lightly."Okay..."
A group of people prepared to head in the direction of the door and at this moment, they heard, "Dear..." The pregnant woman walked towards them.
The director looked back and saw his wife. His expression immediately turned joyous and he ran quickly to hug his own wife into his embrace and said, "Dear, this is such a miracle. Where did you come from? We all thought that you were still in Tony's hands."
The pregnant lady shook her husband off and shrugged her shoulders in disbelief."How could this be, didn't I ask Miss Ning to come to inform everyone first? It is all thanks to Miss Ning. She's the one who saved me."
The director froze, and he turned his head slowly to look at Ning Qing.
Everyone froze, and they all turned their gaze to look towards Ning Qing.
The girl said she saved the pregnant woman a while ago, but nobody believed her.
At this moment, the girl was standing in a corner in a daze, her face was deathly pale, and the lights of the large hall shone on her face. Her skin was sparkling bright without a single trace of blood.
The green veins on Lu Shaoming's forehead jumped in anger, and he took a step forward and went to hold Ning Qing's small hand."Ning Qing... Sorry..."
He had yet to say "sorry" because the girl took a step backwards, not allowing him to touch her.
Her avoidance made Lu Shaoming's facial expression darken, and he unknowingly had a heavier tone in his voice and bore a solemn express as he unhappily said, "Ning Qing."
He knew how much the girl took his feelings to heart. She had chased after him after they met for the first time in America. No matter how upset he was, like that time in the elevator when he used his words to insult her, like how he stayed with Zhou Zhilei today, how Zhou Zhilei even kissed him... But she always had a smile on her face, and her eyebrows were relaxed as she accompanied him.
She seemed not to have her own emotions before, and he was the core of her life.
His cold attitude towards her only made her work harder.
He thought it would be no different this time.
But the girl's frail and moist eyes only gave him a plain stare, then she turned around firmly and ran away briskly.
She ran away.
"Ning Qing!" Lu Shaoming hastily took a few steps forward, wanting to give chase.
"President." But his subordinates called him and said, "Tony is about to board the plane, what should we do next?"
At this moment, he was the commander, and everyone was waiting for his command.
Lu Shaoming frowned eerily and his firm expression on his face had a touch of a cold desire to kill. He forced some words out of his throat and said, "If you are unable to catch him alive, then you will catch him dead."
"Yes, sir." The subordinates understood the order and walked to the direction of the main doors.
"Ay, you cannot go to the main doors." The pregnant woman quickly ran forward. Her director husband followed behind her, afraid that she would fall. The pregnant woman was extremely furious, "What is wrong with you all? Didn't Miss Ning tell you that there is a high chance that Tony planted bombs outside the main doors?"
The director: "...." Yes, she did want to say that, but she did not have the chance to do so, because nobody would believe her.
Lu Shaoming gave his subordinate a look, and the subordinate nodded his head and took out his phone to make a call.
"Dear, what is going on exactly? Tell us all quickly!"
"This is what happened. I was originally tied up in the warehouse of the hotel, and then Miss Ning came to rescue me. She sensed that besides one of Tony's subordinates, there was no one else that was looking after me. She knew I was the ace up Tony's sleeve. This was all very amiss, so Miss Ning guessed that Tony had given us a show to watch. He trapped all of us here, then planted explosives outside the hotel. As long as a person steps outside, the explosives would explode, and all of us would die!"
The crowd heard her words and their expression changed drastically. At this moment, a subordinate came to Lu Shaoming's side and bent down to report to him."President, there are explosives outside this hotel, I have already informed the bomb detonation team to come down."
The crowd: "..." Everyone all looked in the direction that the girl had disappeared in, and they were embarrassed and felt awkward.
The director apologized to Lu Shaoming softly and said, "Young Master Lu, it seems that we have mistaken Miss Ning. Not only did she save my wife, but she also saw through Tony's plot merely by a minor detail. She has saved all of us, and Miss Ning is extremely brave. She is also very intelligent; she possesses both wits and guts."
"That's right..." The workers all agreed in unison while nodding their heads.
The pregnant lady still did not know of what had occurred previously, and she walked in front of Lu Shaoming and asked curiously, "Young Master Lu, where did Miss Ning go? You might not have known, but when Miss Ning wanted to save me just now, she was kicked by Tony's subordinate, and I saw her holding onto her abdomen in pain while being unable to stand up."
"What?" The director was taken aback.
Lu Shaoming's deep eyes finally had some colour in them, and the large palm that he had by his side was tightly held into a fist. No wonder she had grunted in pain and her small hand was so cold.
Actually, she was not a person who would say she was hurt.
She had never said that she was in pain in front of him before.
Actually it was not that she did not feel pain, it was probably because she did not dare to do so. He was not someone who she could be in pain around.
She had such a hopeful gaze that was begging him to look at her just now. Why did he not choose to believe in her?
"Where is that evil subordinate; I want to shatter him into pieces." The director of the factory was raging with fury.
The pregnant lady was satisfied as she said, "That evil subordinate fainted when Miss Ning used a wooden stick to hit him. He is still lying inside the warehouse now. Young Master Lu, Miss Ning risked her life to come and save me. A girl so brave is definitely doing this because of a person that she loves. I guess that Miss Ning must love you very much, and you need to cherish her well."
The crowd heard her words and all channelled their gazes to Zhou Zhilei.
Didn't she claim to be Young Master Lu's girlfriend?
The crowd recalled that Young Master Lu had so gentle towards that girl just now, and even told her to be "obedient." It was intimate speech between lovers.
It turned out that this Zhou Zhilei was the one being jealous over everything.
When they thought of the girl grunting in pain, they had said so many insulting words for her. If not for Zhou Zhilei leading them on, they would not have mistaken the girl so easily.
