The accident happened too fast, without any time to react. Jiang Junlin instinctively held onto Ji Chi’s head and pressed it against his chest, protecting Ji Chi’s head! The car was struck off the road, rolling over several times, shattering all the windows, and tumbling on the ground. Jiang Junlin felt like the world was spinning, and his head hit the remaining shards of glass on the car door, creating a gash from his forehead down to the corner of his eye.

One piece of shattered glass lodged into his back, but Ji Chi, protected by him, was unharmed.

Jiang Junlin took a deep breath, grabbed the glass stuck in his back, and pulled it out. As he did, blood flowed from the wound, and intense pain shot through him. He didn’t even furrow his brow and kicked open the car door with his foot! “He’s fine!” Jiang Junlin replied as he pulled out the glass. After removing it, blood gushed out, and intense pain surged through him. But he didn’t even furrow his brow and kicked the car door open with his foot!

Several security vehicles rushed out from both sides, directly opening fire on Ji Chi’s guards.

Nick, with eyes red and furious, said, “Mr. Jiang, you have to stop them!”

Jiang Junlin kicked the car door open and slapped Ji Chi on the face, “Wake up!”

He turned to Nick, “Give me a gun; these aren’t my people!”

Both sides were now engaged in a firefight, bullets rained onto the car, but Jiang Junlin forcefully pulled Ji Chi out of the car. Even though their lives were hanging by a thread, Jiang Junlin didn’t let go of Ji Chi.

Perhaps Jiang Juniin’s punch had been too strong; Ji Chi still hadn’t regained consciousness. Nick pulled the gun from the unconscious driver and handed it to Jiang Junlin.

“These aren’t your people?”

Given Jiang’s long history of lying and deception, Nick wasn’t sure if he should believe him, but if Mr. Jiang died, his master would go mad when he woke up. Nick had no choice but to trust Jiang Junlin.

Jiang Junlin kept Ji Chi hidden behind the car while the other side of the vehicle was nearly demolished. Ji Chi’s guards returned fire and quickly reported to the nearby Black Hawk security team.

Ji Chi woke up, his head throbbing. He remembered Jiang Junlin knocking him out but before he could get angry, he was grabbed by Jiang Junlin and thrown out of the car. Jiang Junlin ran a few steps forward and then crouched on the ground, one hand holding Ji Chi’s head.

The car they were hiding behind had its fuel tank hit and exploded directly, shattering into pieces. A chunk of it came hurtling toward them, and Ji Chi and Jiang Junlin rolled in opposite directions. Fragments, ablaze with fire, rained down between them.

Four security vehicles arrived, with a total of eleven heavily armed individuals, all firing indiscriminately at Ji Chi’s guards, turning the scene into a river of blood.

“What’s going on?” Ji Chi adjusted the frequency of his earpiece.

Nick said, “Master, we’re under ambush. These aren’t Mr. Jiang’s people!”

Ji Chi’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Jiang Junlin. Jiang Junlin moved to a different cover, but the bullets seemed to follow him relentlessly, hitting him like a hornet’s nest. Jiang Junlin sustained one injury after another, his complexion paling. Nick said, “Rong Li’s people will arrive in ten minutes. Their firepower is too intense, Master, you need to go first. We’ll cover you!” “Find Jiang Junlin!” The attackers, all wearing masks, shouted in Chinese, clearly targeting Jiang Junlin. Ji Chi made a quick decision. “Cover me!” “Yes!”

Under the protective fire of his guards, Ji Chi pulled Jiang Junlin and ran towards the lake. At the lakeside, there was a small forest that would provide some cover. Once inside the forest, they would have at least one piece of cover, but the bullets continued to chase after them. Ji Chi had noticed that Jiang Junlin’s head and back were covered in blood, and it was a horrifying sight. He pushed Jiang Junlin forward and took the lead, shielding Jiang Junlin from the bullets from behind.

“He’s alive, and no one will take Jiang Junlin’s life!” Ji Chi thought fiercely. “Anyone who wants to kill Jiang Junlin will have to step over my dead body!” As they ran, Ji Chi fired shots behind them.

The two of them reached the edge of the small forest.

“Chase them!” The group behind them was relentless, led by someone who waved their hand, and they were coming straight towards the lake.

Once inside the small forest, Jiang Junlin and Ji Chi didn’t pause for breath. Ji Chi used his fingers to peel open Jiang Junlin’s shirt, revealing a piece of glass embedded nearly five centimeters deep into his lower back, visible bone, and flesh turned outward, a gruesome sight.

Ji Chi’s head was buzzing, and he couldn’t help but mock, “Planning to escape? How come you weren’t better prepared? You look so pathetic getting chased like this.”

“Shut up!” Jiang Junlin snapped back, his voice harsh. He didn’t stop moving; they couldn’t afford to. The small forest was only a hundred meters away, and Ji Chi could tell from the sound of the wind and snow that they were being pursued closely.

“Where are your people?” Ji Chi asked.

“I’ve been with you the whole time. How would I know?” Jiang Junlin frowned. Ji Chi had transferred him once, but not far. Cici should have pinpointed his location long ago, and the team sent to rescue him would have been prepared to act immediately. So why were the ones coming after him assassins?

As they continued running, Ji Chi gradually lost contact with Nick over the earpiece. The signal was disrupted, likely due to signal jammers. Their movements in the small forest couldn’t be hidden; this wasn’t a dense forest. “Hold on…” Jiang Junlin stopped abruptly. “Listen, the pursuit behind us has stopped!”

The two leaned against a tree, listening to the silence behind them. Indeed, there was no sound of pursuit. Ji Chi and Jiang Junlin exchanged a glance, both seeing the seriousness in each other’s eyes. Jiang Junlin said, “Let’s head east, but not in a straight line!”

“If they’ve set traps ahead, no matter which path you take, there will be someone waiting!” Ji Chi reasoned.

“Resources are limited; they’ll concentrate their firepower in the predicted direction. Let’s go!” Jiang Junlin said in a low voice. “I’m familiar with this assassination pattern. Follow me!”

Jiang Junlin changed their path halfway, and although Ji Chi was tempted to taunt him, in the midst of their escape, he chose not to argue. Instead, he followed Jiang Junlin as they moved forward. Suddenly, Jiang Junlin’s vision went black, and he leaned against a tree, feeling dizzy.

Ji Chi held onto his arm. “What’s wrong?”

Jiang Junlin took a deep breath and pushed Ji Chi away, lowering his voice, “You’ve done quite a job, haven’t you? And you have the nerve to ask!”

Due to his limited food intake, low blood sugar, and significant blood loss, Jiang Junlin had almost exhausted his stamina. Ji Chi understood this from his pallor. Jiang Junlin’s injuries needed immediate attention.

“Will you listen to me and behave?” Ji Chi said in annoyance. “Is this the right time for your stomachache? You insisted on running, and now look at the situation. We’re chased into the woods, running for our lives, and being shot at. Is this what you wanted? You’re better off locked in a dark room by me.” “Don’t force me to hit you!”

Ji Chi sneered, “Go ahead, you’ve hit me before.”

Jiang Junlin took a deep breath, his anger making his head spin.

As they reached the forest’s edge, they crawled on the ground and continued forward. Visibility was low at night.

“Brother, does this remind you of when we were on the run together?”

“Shut up, be quiet!”

Jiang Junlin listened carefully to the sounds outside the forest.

After waiting for a moment, Jiang Junlin pointed to three directions. Ji Chi nodded, blindly fired a shot, immediately drawing three return shots. After their pursuers fired back, Jiang Junlin raised his hand and fired three shots as well.

“Let’s go!”
