Chapter 444: The Assassin's Target

Number 18, six o'clock in the morning.

Liang Shishi woke Lin Feng up, and they had a meal together.

"Not hungry!"

Lin Feng shook his head.

"I'm hungry!"

Saying that, she forcibly pulled Lin Feng up.

Lin Feng suddenly realized that the former Liang director should have maintained composure.

Only now did she reveal her true self.

During the meal, she no longer cared about her image.

She used to look quite ladylike.

Now…

Lin Feng thought of the football coach from the richest person in West Red City, performing the bit of eating a suckling pig in three bites.

"Eat slowly!"

Lin Feng reminded.

Saying that, he snatched the skewer she was holding.

"What are you doing?"

Liang Shishi gave Lin Feng a dismissive look.

Lin Feng said: "I noticed you're a bit different today."

Liang Shishi said: "Because I'm tired, I'm not pretending anymore; I'm laying my cards on the table with you!"

Lin Feng's defenses were completely shattered by that line.

"Pfft~"

A mouthful of Milk splashed onto her face.

Lin Feng picked up a napkin and handed it to her, "Sorry."

Liang Shishi shook her head in refusal, lightly opened her vermilion lips, and curled her tongue.

Lin Feng froze.

He almost did it again.

Liang Shishi let out a 'pfft' laugh, "You're really not fun to tease."

Lin Feng gave a wry smile and said: "Is it that I can't control my rudeness for the first time, or are you, Director Liang, just that impressive!"

"Really?"

Liang Shishi was somewhat doubtful.

Because many people have dined with Lin Feng, this situation should have happened long ago!

Saying that, she used a napkin to wipe the Milk off her face clean.

Never mind, don't believe it.

Lin Feng did not explain.

Next, they got down to business.

Actually, they discussed the upcoming work.

Liang Shishi turned around, her back to Lin Feng, looking out the window, and murmured her opinion.

Her opinion was old-fashioned, yet it seemed new, containing profound truths.

"You're just trying to survive by playing both sides!"

Lin Feng laughed and said.

Liang Shishi glanced at Lin Feng and said, "You're quite eloquent; try to beat me in debate!"

Lin Feng laughed and said: "I won't fall for it! Look at you—you raised the question yourself and now you've made it muddy, like starch paste."

"Really?"

Liang Shishi furrowed her brows, "Did overusing the core last night make you sick?"

Lin Feng shook his head, "No, that's normal; it shows you're too excited right now."

Liang Shishi knew Lin Feng understood medicine, and hearing him say that put her mind at ease.

As long as there's no illness, that's good!

"Cough cough!"

Lin Feng gave Liang Shishi a hint, then began.

His way of solving problems has always been relatively direct.

And looking at Liang Shishi's appearance, she also seemed unable to wait.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Liang Shishi raised her hand and surrendered.

Number 18, one-eight, gonna strike it rich!

It's the sixteenth of the lunar month again.

It was supposed to be a good day.

But something happened on Qi Yao's side.

After finishing breakfast, Liang Shishi was carefully cleaning up the utensils when Lin Feng's phone rang.

It was the female Biao Biao beside Qi Yao calling.

"Mr. Lin, something happened…… someone attacked Miss Qi……"

The female Biao Biao's voice sounded very distressed.

Lin Feng heard it and instantly knew she was hurt, and his heart went thump.

Qi Yao was Lin Feng's beloved.

After hanging up the phone, he immediately drove to the scene of the incident.

Lin Feng felt uneasy and drove at a relatively high speed.

Just after leaving the Bieshu area and turning onto the main road, he almost rear‑ended a junk‑hauling truck.

Although they didn't collide, a piece of metal fell from the truck and struck the front windshield.

The strong inertia shattered the windshield, and the shards skimmed past Lin Feng's cheek.

Lin Feng suddenly felt a burning pain on his right cheek, raised his hand to touch it, and found his hand covered in blood.

But there was no time to worry about that; after slamming the brakes, he turned the steering wheel to change lanes, then floored the accelerator.

"Damn! He's hurrying to be reborn!"

A driver in a sedan behind them cursed loudly.

Lin Feng had just changed lanes and almost collided.

Lin Feng heard it but ignored it, thinking it was his own fault anyway.

The place where Qi Yao was attacked wasn't far from the Beautiful City Century Community where she lived.

It was 7:30; Qi Yao had just driven out, and under the escort of a female Biao Biao, she left the community, turned onto a side street, and was blocked by a black sedan.

Qi Yao slammed on the brakes and stopped.

The car ahead opened its doors, and four men in black got out, guns in hand.

They then pointed their barrels at Qi Yao and fired through the glass.

The four assassins didn't expect Qi Yao's car to have bulletproof glass!

The handgun bullets couldn't penetrate.

The female Biao Biao, unarmed, opened her door, got out, and threw a dagger.

Unfortunately it didn't hit the assassin.

She was instead shot, the bullet striking her right chest.

Luckily it missed her heart.

The assassins' target was Qi Yao, and they ignored the Biao Biao.

At that moment, a patrolling police car arrived and engaged the four assassins in a gunfight.

In less than three minutes, two police officers were killed and wounded.

Two of the four assassins were also killed.

More police arrived.

One assassin smashed Qi Yao's car window, opened the door, and pointed his gun at her, taking her as a hostage.

He then led Qi Yao into a nearby restaurant.

By then the restaurant's patrons and owner had already fled.

The female Biao Biao then took out her phone and notified Lin Feng.

When Lin Feng arrived, the restaurant was already surrounded by police on all sides.

One assassin clasped Qi Yao's neck, gun barrel aimed at her.

Another assassin kept watch at the back door.

"Consultant Lin!"

When Lin Feng arrived, Detachment Captain Liu was pleased.

Now that Lin Feng was here, they should be able to quickly eliminate the two assassins and rescue Professor Qi.

Lin Feng nodded at Team Captain Liu and then looked toward the restaurant.

The restaurant's door was a glass door with red lettering; Qi Yao and the assassins were on the left side near the door, and snipers couldn't reach them from any direction.

Although these four guys' Gun Technique was poor, they seemed to have received some training.

Lin Feng furrowed his brows, thinking of a plan as his mind raced.

At that moment, Qi Yao was speaking to the assassins, "You can't get away; just surrender!"

The assassin sneered, "Surrendering still means death! So surrender is impossible; you'll never surrender in this life!"

Qi Yao said, "You want to kill me, right?"

The assassin replied, "Ten million dollars! Not just us, there are more assassins. So Professor Qi, even if you don't die at our hands, you'll die at other assassins' hands."

"Who wants my life?"

Qi Yao furrowed her brows and asked.

At that moment, Qi Yao saw Lin Feng, and saw him holding a gun.

She knew Lin Feng's Gun Technique; if she gave him a second, she could be saved.

The assassin said, "We don't know, we just take the money. We didn't expect your car to have bulletproof glass!"

As soon as the words finished, Qi Yao said, "Do you feel something missing?"

"Hmm?"

The assassin was startled.

Then he felt a sharp pain in his stomach.

Looking down, he realized he had been... gutted!

A bunch of stuff fell out.

Qi Yao was holding a Scalpel!

Damn it!

While the assassin was still shocked, Qi Yao seized the chance and dropped into a crouch on the ground.

Almost simultaneously, gunfire rang out.

A bullet pierced the glass and struck the assassin's forehead.

The breakfast shop's glass door was not bulletproof.

However, the matter was not over.

There was another assassin!

Lin Feng immediately rushed over.

Just then, a grenade appeared in the air.

"Bang bang bang!"

Lin Feng fired several shots, shattering the glass door, and rushed into the shop.

He could not detonate the grenade by shooting it.

Doing so would cause even greater destructive power.

There's no time!

Lin Feng rushed forward, spread his arms, and shielded Qi Yao in the corner.

"Boom~"

The grenade exploded as soon as it hit the ground.

This was a defensive grenade capable of scattering countless steel pellets.

Although its blast power was not great, its lethal effect in a small area was astonishing.
