Although in this day and age, there were many women who felt good about themselves and asked for things endlessly, there was no lack of true feelings. When one liked a person to the extent of love, they could not care about anything else. Even if they lived a poor and simple life, as long as they were together with the person, it would be like heaven on earth.
It was a beautiful and pure feeling, without anything else. It was just like that time when Liu Jie wanted to be with me. She had proposed to elope to a faraway place. Her courage was enough for me to cherish her. I would use my life to protect her.
Although we had a disagreement not long ago, we had managed to get through it. I felt lucky. Sometimes, when one's emotions reached a critical point, it was easy to do something stupid. It was enough to show the problems between us. When these obstacles were solved, our relationship was also stabilized.
Not long after, delicious dishes were served on the table. Since we had walked a long way in the morning, we ate with gusto. We finished the three dishes and one soup.
After strolling around, we prepared to go back. Since it was still early, it was better to go back. If something happened in Yuncheng, we wouldn't be able to go back for a while.
Along the way, we played music and played games. Time passed quickly.
By the time we got off the highway, it was only 3: 30 pm, so it was still early. Liu Jie said that there was an orchard nearby, so it would be better to buy some fresh fruits. I didn't mind. Although fruits could be bought in supermarkets, it was a different feeling to go to an orchard and pick them myself.
Then, we searched on our phone and found the right location. It was just a few kilometers away. Not long after that, we arrived at the orchard. We happily picked two baskets of fruits. After paying, we prepared to move them to the car.
However, we saw a flashy off-road Mercedes-Benz parked in front of us. "Whose car is that? Why did it stop there?" The sister-in-law was a little depressed. Even if there were no traffic police in this place, they shouldn't block people's way.
Liu Jie nodded. "It looks like a Mercedes-Benz G63. It's a monstrous off-road car.
When we came here, we didn't see this car. In other words, it came after us. Why did it block the road? What did it mean?
"Hey, whose Mercedes-Benz off-road vehicle is this? Come and move it."
I yelled at the top of my lungs. Although this place was remote, the fresh fruits here were of good quality and cheap. Many people were attracted to this place. There were at least a dozen of them.
As soon as I said that, I had a bad premonition.
In the next moment. "Bang."
A sudden gunshot rang out, followed by a flat tire. The air was filled with the faint smell of gunpowder.
"Ah."
Sister-in-law and Liu Jie were stunned, including the tourists in the orchard. They screamed, and the scene was a mess.
There was a simple house not far from us. A man in black was standing on the roof. He held a gun in his hand and wore a playful smile on his face.
"Motherf * cker, why are you shooting at me? Get over here!" I was furious and glared at him.
The man ignored me and fired a few shots at me, but I dodged them all. "Quick, find a place to hide," I reminded him.
This sudden attack caught me off guard. Even if it was a hail of bullets, I could deal with it. However, I was worried that once I was shot, it would be troublesome.
"Okay."
They reacted quickly and hid behind a big tree. When the tourists heard the gunshot, they ran away. Some of them were shot.
I took a deep breath. After the two women hid, I ran toward the man in black.
The man fired a few more shots, but he still couldn't hurt me. He looked surprised. "Not bad. No wonder Leng Yue failed her mission."
As soon as I heard that, I got some information. If I wasn't mistaken, he was also an assassin. Unlike assassinations, he had appeared openly. He had purposely shot the tire with his first shot.
Because he was confident, in just a few breaths' time, I leaped onto the roof like a bolt of lightning and started fighting with him.
There was no doubt that guns were lethal from a distance. Even a martial artist at the Ming Jing stage would have a hard time resisting them. Only if they reached the Concealing Jing stage and had a qualitative leap in reflexes could they escape death.
It wasn't difficult for me to dodge bullets. The Yi Jinjing had changed me fundamentally. My senses in all aspects were far better than those of martial artists at the same stage.
However, this guy wasn't weak either. Apart from his accurate shooting skills, he was also at the peak of Concealing Jing!
This surprised me. In the elite competition, the top geniuses in each city were at the middle stage of Concealing Jing. There weren't many who were at the late stage of Concealing Jing, let alone the peak of Concealing Jing. Except for Ou Yangjun, who had burned his blood essence and reached Neutralizing Jing Master in a short time, there weren't any contestants who were above the peak of Concealing Jing!
In just one or two minutes, we had fought more than twenty rounds. Our punches and palms were accompanied by shocking sounds and energy fluctuations.
However, the man in black always had the upper hand. I only used sixty to seventy percent of my strength. I wanted to see what other trump cards he had.
If it was a head-on fight, I might not be able to get the upper hand. However, if it was a competition of endurance, I wasn't afraid of him. Like this, the man in black found something wrong.
He threw a punch and pulled away from me. "Boy, you are just a Concealing Jing early stage martial artist. How can you have such strong energy?" The man in black asked.
"Hehe, what? You don't believe me?" I curled my lips and said disapprovingly.
"Oh, I'm giving you face. I was just testing you. Tell me, what did you do to Leng Yue!" The man in black glared at me and asked.
"What's your relationship with her?"
I frowned. Looking at him, he seemed to care about Leng Yue. Could he be her protector?
Obviously, if he wanted to control a woman like Leng Yue, his strength must be above hers. If he couldn't reach this standard, then it would be very difficult to succeed.
"She's my woman. Ever since she came back this morning, she's been absent-minded. Moreover, because she failed to assassinate you, her ranking has dropped to over a hundred. You're actually leisurely and elegant, following two beauties in the orchard." The black-clothed man said coldly, giving off a feeling that he was not smiling.
