“Brother Nan Xiao, what shall we do? Did First Prince say anything?” Seeing that Nan Xiao looked blank after hanging up, the man in the driver’s seat asked in a panic. After all, he knew that Nan Xiao was taking actions without orders. If Ke Jie was angry, he would not be spared as he was part of the operation.

Nan Xiao didn’t reply, immersed in his thoughts. After a minute, he looked up at the man with creepy eyes.

The man got frightened and trembled instinctively.

“Bro… Brother Nan Xiao?” The man tried to call Nan Xiao with a trembling voice, as Nan Xiao looked frightening.

Nan Xiao didn’t say anything, but his eyes suddenly turned fierce. He aimed his gun at the man’s chest and pulled the trigger.

The man widened his eyes in disbelief. He looked at Nan Xiao and then looked down at his bleeding chest.

“Nan, Nan Xiao, you…” Before he could finish his words, the man spat out a mouthful of blood and died, his eyes wide open in surprise.

Nan Xiao didn’t feel guilty about the shooting at all. He loaded the gun and shot his own arm without hesitation. He didn’t stop there, as he was afraid it didn’t look real. He punched himself on the face a few more times until the corner of his mouth was bleeding.

“This should do.” He frowned in pain as he examined his ‘miserable’ state. After he checked carefully, he believed everything was perfectly concealed, he covered his injured arm and stumbled out of the cab.

Nan Xiao did this because he was afraid that the man would tell Ke Jie that he had taken action without the order. Besides, he was also afraid the man would lose his composure and ruin his plan. Therefore, Nan Xiao killed the man to silence him.

When Ji Guangming heard the gunshot from the alley not far away, his eyes lit up, and he shouted excitedly, “Yangyi.” He asked the driver to drive towards the direction of the sound and told He Jingyan that it must be Xu Yangyi.

However, He Jingyan remaind cold and impassive. He didn’t say he would not go, nor did he forbid Ji Guangming to go there.

However, when Ji Guangming got to the alley, he was disappointed, as that was not Xu Yangyi, but he was surprised as well.

‘What happened? How could the Adjutant be injured?’

“I’m sorry, Colonel. I am late.” Nan Xiao pretended to feel guilty as he stood beside He Jingyan’s car and lowered his head, as if blaming himself.

He Jingyan glanced at him and his wound without saying anything.

He Jingyan’s silence worried Nan Xiao, who didn’t know if his identity was exposed.

“It’s all my fault that got Yangyi in danger.” He took the blame and lowered his head. He glanced at He Jingyan’s car from the corner of his eye and saw no trace of Xu Yangyi.

He thought that Xu Yangyi was in Ji Guangming’s car, and he glanced over there, but he didn’t see Xu Yangyi either.

‘Xu Yangyi is not here? What happened?’

Nan Xiao was puzzled, as he didn’t know that someone had seized the moment and had taken Xu Yangyi away.

“Get in the car.” He Jingyan said coldly. A dead silence fell upon.

Nan Xiao did not know what was going on, but he did not dare to ask, afraid of exposing himself.

“Yes, Colonel.”
