Chapter 2379
I subconsciously wanted to stop it, and just turned around, but Murong Jin had already indifferently thrown out the answer, “Feel free.”
The two words were light, as if the four seasons were some insignificant passerby.
Maybe to him, but not to me.
I hastily shook my hand at Quinn and Lucas, “No, that’s not what he meant, we’ll take responsibility for what Four Seasons did, I will, don’t you hit on her!”
But Quinn didn’t listen to me at all, he just waited for Murong Jin to say something, and when he didn’t respond, his face went cold, so he picked up the wooden barn and stood up, gritting his teeth and threatening, “Jin, I hope you can afford the consequences of this decision!”
“Go!”
With that, he wore Lucas with him and left in a huff.
If Murong Jin didn’t care, it meant that he wouldn’t protect the Four Seasons, so that even if it was just the two of them, they wouldn’t have to worry about being outnumbered when they went to retaliate against the Four Seasons.
Once they left, it meant that the Four Seasons were not safe.
It was too easy for someone from the gang to assassinate someone.
I tried to chase them out to stop them, but I had only just left the restaurant when their figures had disappeared from the doorway.
These two guys were furious and would probably find the Four Seasons by now. In a moment of anger, I snarled at Murong Jin like he was crazy, “Are you sick? Why did you tell them to say that to who? Even if you didn’t want to protect the Four Seasons, couldn’t you have stalled them for my sake and said something false to get rid of them? If you say those things, the Four Seasons will die, do you know that!”
“It has nothing to do with me.” Murong Jin continued eating without changing his face, as if nothing had happened, “It’s hard enough reading you, I’m not interested in other women.”
“You-” I was so angry that I was speechless, there was no reasoning with such a person.
Too late to think about it, I rushed straight out with my bag and drove straight to the clubhouse.
All the way there, I was praying that Quinn and Lucas’ driving skills would be so bad that they would let me get there before them.
But the skies were not kind, and I hit three red lights in a row on the way, and by the time I reached the clubhouse, it was already an hour later.
Sitting in the car, I couldn’t stop straining my neck to see the entrance before I reached it.
It wasn’t even business hours yet, and only a few employees were in and out of the door, so it looked like nothing was happening.
I didn’t have time to think about it, so I parked across the road and got out of the car, ready to walk over.
I had tried calling the Four Seasons on the way here, but it was always on hold. I didn’t know if something had happened or if the number had changed, and I had to go in and confirm it as soon as possible.
However, I had only just reached the middle of the road when I saw Four Seasons walking out of the lobby, followed by Cheng Junyu.
He had obviously left, when did he come back?
But at this point I couldn’t think about that, I just wanted to warn Four Seasons, so I shouted at the top of my lungs, “Four Seasons! Go back!”
Perhaps the distance was too far, but the Four Seasons turned their faces when they heard my shout, but did not back up.
At the same time, the door of one of the many cars parked in front of the clubhouse suddenly popped open.
Quinn and Lucas jerked out of the car and aimed at the clubhouse door with their wooden bins.
“Run! Run!” I shouted, not even caring about the passing cars.
No sooner had the words left my mouth than the sound of sub. The sound of bullets rang out in quick succession.
“Bang, bang, bang-”
Quinn and Lucas opened their wooden bins one after the other, bullets flying one after the other in the direction of the Four Seasons.
My heart was instantly in my throat, but the next second, Cheng Junyu made a sideways turn, blocking Four Seasons behind him.
Chapter 2380
In just an instant, four or five bullets. The bullets hit Cheng Junyu in the chest at the same time.
A few employees who were following beside him were also more or less injured.
At the same time, a group of soldiers wearing military… uniformed military… men jumped out violently from all sides and opened wooden silos to fire back.
Under fire, Quinn and Lucas were soon hit and fell in a pool of blood. Quinn and Lucas were quickly shot and fell in a pool of blood.
Before I could react, the long, piercing sound of a horn rushed towards me from near and far.
The moment I turned my head, the black car was almost in front of me.
The next moment, however, a man jumped out from behind me and threw me forward.
When I opened my eyes, it was Fu Shenyan’s face that met my eyes.
Each other’s breathing was a little heavy, and when I looked again, the car had already taken off.
All that remained was the hubbub over at the clubhouse.
The war in Mukura had caused quite a stir, and when the military stepped in to control the scene, the masses who were not afraid to die swarmed around the entrance to the clubhouse, forming a small circle.
Fu Shenyan picked me up and escorted me all the way through the crowd.
The injured people were all taken into the clubhouse lobby, and when we entered, Cheng Junyu was already out of breath.
When we went in, Cheng Junyu was already out of breath. Four Seasons didn’t say a word as she held him, but her eyes were red and bloodshot, and tears were falling through her eyelashes and hitting the floor, making people sad along with her.
In fact, for the four seasons, without seeing with his own eyes the harm that Cheng Junyu had done to Muzi, the man in his arms was just the father who had given him life.
Hate, it was thin, but blood kinship, it was engraved in the bones.
Now this man died for him again, but she was too late to call him father. The regret in her heart may never be solved in this lifetime.
I wanted to go forward to comfort her, but Fu Shenyan pulled me back, “Let them be alone for a while longer.”
There would be no chance of that later.
The latter half of the sentence was my own realization, but I think it should also be what Fu Shen Yan meant.
We stayed by the Four Seasons’ side in this silent manner until the ambulance arrived and took Cheng Junyu’s body away.
As we watched the Four Seasons leave with the car, we were about to go back to the clubhouse to make amends, when I glanced over my shoulder and saw Murong Jin’s figure in the crowd.
He was standing behind the crowd, a long way behind, like a lone ghost, standing there alone, with a cold aura, his face drooping, a “do not approach” sign in human form.
Even from such a distance, I could clearly sense that he was looking at me.
Perhaps not only now, but the scene where Fu Shenyan flew to save me had also caught his eye.
But he was just standing there, from such a distance, making it clear to me that he knew everything, but not putting it on the table.
It felt like a man who knew his wife was cheating on him, but didn’t want to upset the balance of their relationship, both knowing that they knew about the cheating, but tacitly choosing to ignore it.
And he did.
When I returned home again with unease, Murong Jinan sat on the sofa, neither asking me nor looking for words, calmly as if nothing had happened.
He didn’t say anything, so I played dumb and stayed by his side in peace, waiting for the opportunity to carry out my final plan.
This delicate relationship continued for about a week, and that afternoon, shortly after Murong Jin had gone out, he suddenly came back in.
When I saw him barge in, I couldn’t help myself and gave him a sarcastic remark, “What, you can’t stand it anymore and are coming back to check up on me? Are you going to take back your right to give me my freedom next?”
