“Colonel how long do we have to wait? Yangyi is running out of ammo. If anything happens to him, it will be too late.”
Ji Guangming got impatient in the car behind He Jingyan and he talked anxiously in the Bluetooth.
He Jingyan did not reply. Instead, he looked around at the alley and found that a group of men were approaching Nan Xiao quietly.
Were they sent by Gong Cheng?
He Jingyan was confused, frowning. If Gong Cheng’s men took actions here, they would be obviously suspected. If He Jingyan pretended that he didn’t know about Gong Cheng’s men, his plan might be seen through by Ke Jie.
“How is it over there?” He Jingyan suddenly talked in the Bluetooth.
Ji Guangming was startled as he didn’t know what He Jingyan meant. He thought that the question was posed to him.
Just as he was scratching his head and thinking about what was going on, a man’s voice came from the Bluetooth. “Gong Cheng is right now with me.”
As the man spoke, he glanced at Gong Cheng, who was staring at him in the front passenger seat.
“What is going on?” Gong Cheng took a sharp glance at Yan Chengyu, who was reporting to He Jingyan in the Bluetooth.
Yan Chengyu smiled. “Didn’t I just say it? I work in He Jingyan’s unit and now I’m on a mission.”
Yan Chengyu and Gong Cheng had known each other before. Just now he stopped the car and saw Gong Cheng in the driver’s seat, there was so no gunplay happening.
“I can’t explain to you without the order, but I’m doing this for the sake of Yangyi. Your men should wait and see instead of ruining the Colonel’s plan.”
In the end, he glanced at the dozen of the cars blocking his way and indicated Gong Cheng to ask his men to leave first.
Actually, Gong Cheng was not the only one who was surprised. Yan Chengyu was shocked as well, as he had known Gong Cheng for a long time, but he had no idea that Gong Cheng had so many underlings. What’s more, when something happened to Xu Yangyi, his men all swarmed out.
‘I used to feel there must be someone hiding behind Yangyi’s family, but I have never imagined that it is Gong Cheng, who looks like an ordinary editor, that is not a simple man.’
“Where’s He Jingyan?” Gong Cheng said coldly without showing any respect to He Jingyan, as if Gong Cheng was blaming He Jingyan for allowing Xu Yangyi to leave the unit.
“Don’t worry. Yangyi will be fine. He is the wife of He Jingyan, who will not let anyone hurt him.” Yan Chengyu said when he noticed Gong Cheng was worried.
But Gong Cheng didn’t seem to listen, nor did he speak. He was pondering.
He Jingyan should have had his own plans, and he would not let Yangyi show up on the streets without any protection.
After all, He Jingyan was the son of “that man”, so he must have his own considerations.
“Retreat.”
Gong Cheng didn’t waste time. He ordered his men outside and was about to get out of the car, but he was stopped by Yan Chengyu.
“Brother Gong Cheng, my mission is to take you to see the Colonel. You can’t just leave like that.”
Gong Cheng paused and then said, “Your mission has been completed.” He got into the car beside him and left.
“He always have his own way!” Yan Chengyu sighed and then said to He Jingyan, “What should we do now? Do you want me to bring him back?”
He Jingyan didn’t say anything, staring at his phone. He had already received a text from his dad, telling him to let Gong Cheng go and stop making more investigation.
It seemed that these two people did have some inconvenient secrets.
