Chapter 3954: Chapter 3954: What a Coincidence, Master Wang and Sister Nian Did the Same Thing
Ye Wangchuan released his grip without asking why, moved the dagger away, and signaled for the young man to leave.
Sangs initially wanted to take advantage of Ye Wangchuan, who was without a weapon, but when his peripheral vision caught the eyes of the girl playing with a remote control not far away, he hesitated, gritted his teeth, and told his men, "Let’s go!"
Lu Zhi’s people had long wanted to retreat, and were just waiting for his command. As soon as he gave the order, a group of people dropped their weapons and quickly left...
During this process, Qiao Nian had been playing with the black remote control in her hand, seemingly not caring about their departure, until the last silhouette disappeared at the door.
She suddenly released the remote control onto the ground, took three steps forward to grab the man’s shoulders, and asked sternly, "Where are you injured?"
When she touched his wound, Ye Wangchuan’s brow slightly twitched. He pulled her hand away, his pale lips still in the mood to joke with Qiao Nian, "God Qiao, aren’t you going to take your micro-bombs back?"
Qiao Nian roughly saw his shoulder shrink back in a moment, guessed where he was injured, furrowed her brows, and fixed her gaze on the area he had wrapped with a simple bandage, then looked up with her dark eyes devoid of light, "You got shot in the right shoulder?"
Ye Wangchuan avoided her hand trying to check, and said lightly, "It’s just a minor wound. It doesn’t hurt. Let’s get out first and talk."
Seeing her left hand come up empty, Qiao Nian felt a surge of violent emotion but quickly controlled herself with reason. She said quickly, "The people I arranged will be here soon, those outside won’t be able to escape."
"You arranged more people?" Ye Wangchuan was surprised.
"Mhm." Qiao Nian responded, her left hand instinctively tried to check his wound again but only curled her fingers and put it back into her pocket, managing her tone as she said, "I had Jian Jin investigate the situation here on my way in. I knew Lu Zhi was here, so I arranged for all available personnel to come over..."
She paused, then added, "There aren’t many people. Logically, it’s not enough to contend with Lu Zhi, but he brought few people tonight, so we have the advantage."
In the illegal zone, Lu Zhi is the Crowned King after all, while she usually stays around Rao City and only occasionally comes by when she went to college in Beijing. And her stay is limited.
The Red Alliance has never been strong in combative power and maintained its ranking among top forces in the illegal zone through the backing of David from Continent F and recent close ties with Tian Chen.
Tian Chen and the Red Alliance are completely different.
Lu Zhi is very strategic; he’s been setting up forces in the illegal zone early on, recruiting a large batch of capable helpers.
In the illegal zone, no one can stop Lu Zhi from acting against someone. The same goes for her!
But tonight Lu Zhi made a fatal error—assuming she couldn’t return in time and that Ye Wangchuan wouldn’t hold out for long. This led him to bring fewer people, giving her a chance to counterattack.
Sharp pain came from Ye Wangchuan’s shoulder, and the loss of blood gave him a slight sense of powerlessness. To hide his condition, he lightly leaned against the wall, stood with his arms crossed as usual, appearing proud yet lazy, squinting slightly, "By coincidence, I also arranged for some manpower. Without any surprises, Lu Zhi is already planning to leave."
Qiao Nian immediately met his gaze, visibly surprised, "You..."
Her gaze slid down, catching the man’s pallid lips again, her brows furrowing as she stood up straight, unusually vexed, "Forget it, let’s talk once we’re outside."
**
Ye Wangchuan’s guess was very accurate.
Outside, after Sangs and the others went out, they found Lu Zhi already preparing to retreat.
