Chapter 938: Chapter 938
"Alright, wait a moment," He Jingyao said as he stood up and walked into the bedroom.
Zhixi was still quietly sleeping.
He Jingyao smiled faintly, placing a hand on her stomach, but didn’t feel any movement. It seemed the baby, like their mother, was also asleep.
He leaned down and kissed Zhixi on the forehead.
She woke up with a start, her eyes wide open: "Jingyao?"
"Yes," he smiled slightly, "Did you sleep well?"
She nodded dazedly as she sat up with his help.
Seeing the man’s somewhat gloomy expression, she suddenly understood: "Is it... is it..."
"Yes." He Jingyao gently ruffled her hair, "I’ll have someone take you back to the old house soon. You and Xiaobao wait for me there."
Zhixi felt her heart pounding.
"So... so you’re planning to stay and face Lawrence and that bomb codenamed N39 alone? What if... what if something unexpected happens..." Zhixi clutched his collar tightly, her voice a bit stammered.
"It won’t. I’ve already found a solution," He Jingyao comforted softly, "I won’t give the bomb a chance to explode."
Zhixi leaned into his embrace, wanting to say that if there was no danger, she should stay with him.
But she knew, He Jingyao wouldn’t allow it.
"Then... Xiaobao and I will wait for you at the old house for dinner." She murmured, "You have to come pick us up, you must..."
"Don’t be afraid." He Jingyao saw her eyes welling up with tears, a mix of heartache and amusement, "I will definitely come to pick you up, okay?"
Zhixi took a deep breath and nodded.
In matters like these, she always believed in him unconditionally. Because he had never broken a promise.
So this time, it would surely be thrilling but safe.
He Jingyao held her in his arms, then after a while, cupped her face and kissed her deeply.
Two minutes later, He Jingyao sent her into the car.
"Wait for me at the old house," he smiled slightly, kissing her palm.
"Okay." Zhixi bit her lip and nodded, tears welling in her eyes again.
He Jingyao’s Adam’s apple bobbed, but considering that Lawrence might appear nearby soon, he didn’t dare delay any longer, quickly letting go of her and shutting the car door.
Li Bo quickly started the car.
The car sped away in a cloud of dust.
Huo Yanhui stood beside him, sighing: "Sending your wife to a safe place and having your buddy stay to face death with you... I think you’re truly in love with me, wanting to die together on the same day, month, and year." Googlᴇ search N0velFire.ɴet
He Jingyao gave him a cold glance.
Huo Yanhui closed his mouth with an awkward smile.
Five minutes later, a stumbling middle-aged white man appeared in the park.
His legs seemed to have been injured, and he walked very slowly, keeping his head down, slowly moving from one end of the park to the other.
The pedestrians passing by only glanced at him casually before looking away, not paying him much attention.
No one recognized that this man was once a leader of Al-Qaeda, his name appearing on countless nations’ wanted lists.
Gradually, he reached the entrance of the apartment building.
Suddenly, two men in black appeared out of nowhere, pinning him fiercely to the ground and quickly restraining him!
He struggled violently, but to no avail.
Suddenly, he felt a shadow appear before his eyes.
