Chapter 374: I’m Old Enough to Be His Grandmother
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Wait a minute! I’ll ask one last question!” Young Master Wang was afraid that Du Yue would get impatient, so he spoke faster. “Xia Ju, is she okay?”
“She’s doing fine now, but if you continue to dawdle, it might not be the case.” “Okay, okay, okay. I’ll go find someone now!”
Young Master Wang was extremely anxious. After saying this, he directly hung up the call. It was obvious that he had gone to make arrangements. Du Yue handed the phone to Xia Ju. “He’s quite worried about you. Now that An Wu is dead, his father should be in charge here in the future. If you stay, he should treat you well.”
Xia Ju took the phone and rolled her eyes speechlessly. “I’m old enough to be his grandmother. How could I fall for such a child?!”
Seeing Xia Ju’s speechless expression, Du Yue did not try to persuade her anymore. What if she got impatient and wanted to fight with her? Du Yue looked to the side and was surprised that He Xing was not there. Just as she was wondering where He Xing had gone, she saw He Xing walk in from outside. “Lu Xun was shot and has lost consciousness. However, the bullet didn’t hurt his vital points. As long as he’s treated in time, his life shouldn’t be in danger…” “I’m right here!” Xia Ju immediately strode out. “Don’t worry. With me around, he won’t die.”
Du Yue and He Xing looked at each other and quickly followed. Du Yue thought that her walking speed was fast enough, but she did not expect that she was still much slower than Xia Ju.
Xia Ju squatted beside Lu Xun, fiddling with something. There was a bullet stained with blood beside Xia Ju’s feet. She was just a step late and the bullet was already out? Xia Ju stood up and looked over. “It’s not convenient in the corridor. He Xing, carry him to my room.”
Xia Ju turned around and left after saying that. When He Xing came in with Lu Xun, he saw that a treatment chamber had appeared in the room. This treatment chamber was no different from the one on the fifth floor. It looked exactly the same.
Xia Ju opened the hatch and let He Xing put Lu Xun in before closing the hatch. “Fortunately, his injury isn’t serious. He’ll probably be fine after staying in there for two days.”
Through the glass, they could see Lu Xun lying on the bed. His breathing was smooth, and his complexion was not too bad. Knowing that Lu Xun would be fine, Du Yue was relieved. At least, she did not let innocent people lose their lives because of her. However, she could not stay in the third base anymore. “What’s upstairs?” Du Yue asked Xia Ju. “Have you gone up to take a look?”
“I’ve never been there, but I heard An Wu mention it before. There are helicopters and helipads up there.” Hearing that there was a helicopter, Du Yue’s eyes were instantly filled with surprise. She was just thinking about how to leave the third base as soon as possible when she found out there were helicopters here.
“We’re leaving. What do you plan to do?”
Xia Ju immediately took two steps closer to Du Yue. “Of course, I want to go with you! Don’t tell me you don’t want to bring me along? Didn’t you see it just now? I’m really amazing!”
After seeing Xia Ju easily remove the bullet from Lu Xun’s body, Du Yue also believed that she was indeed capable.
“It’s fine if you want to come with us, but we have our rules. Before you want to do anything, you have to get our approval. You can’t act rashly. Otherwise, we’ll just throw you into the wilderness and feed you to the wild beasts.”
Xia Ju looked at Du Yue pitifully. “Indeed, beautiful roses have thorns. But I’m willing!”
After the three of them discussed, Xia Ju searched An Wu’s body again and found the elevator card.
When she left, Du Yue did not forget to take An Wu’s phone with her. She was still waiting for news from Young Master Wang. They had not walked out of the building for a few days, and they did not have windows to see what was outside. It was not until they reached the roof that Du Yue realized a problem. “Has the sandstorm stopped?”
Xia Ju looked at Du Yue in confusion. “Sandstorm? What sandstorm?”
From Xia Ju’s words, they knew that she had been imprisoned by An Wu for too long and had no idea what had happened outside during this period of time.
Therefore, the three of them knew nothing about what had happened outside these few days. Fortunately, as soon as they walked out of the elevator, Young Master Wang called. After Du Yue picked up the call, she did not wait for Young Master Wang to speak and asked directly, “Has the sandstorm stopped?”
“Yeah, somewhat,” Young Master Wang answered subconsciously and quickly asked, “Why are you asking this? By the way, I’ve already taken care of the people lying in ambush outside Sunshine Courtyard. Don’t worry.
“My dad has also sent people to the research center. You just have to wait patiently. I’m also rushing there.. I’ll be there soon…”
