“Nanchen, thank you for always accompanying me,” Wu Mei said in a low voice.
When she pulled the worried Li Nanchen out of the villa, Li Nanchen could have rejected or objected, but he did not.
Regardless of the outcome, Li Nanchen stood by her side.
Li Nanchen’s eyes dimmed slightly. As he hugged her back, he smiled dejectedly. “I just hope that you can think about yourself and think about me.”
“I-I do.” Wu Mei hugged Li Nanchen even tighter. She seemed to want to convey all her feelings to Li Nanchen.
The bodyguard in charge of driving interrupted their conversation softly, “Young Master, Madam, is it the car in front?”
They had no choice but to let go of each other and settle the important issue first.
Wu Mei looked at the image displayed on the computer screen, then looked at the style and model of the car. She frowned and said, “It’s this car. It actually didn’t leave? Let’s park opposite that road.”
The bodyguard turned the steering wheel and parked the car where Wu Mei had indicated. He could clearly see the scene inside Wu Pang’s car.
Wu Pang was sitting in the driver’s seat, eating. There was obviously someone in the back seat, but he couldn’t see that person clearly.
Wu Mei opened the car door and said, “I’ll go over.” Li Nanchen abruptly tugged on her wrist.
She turned around in surprise and met Li Nanchen’s worried gaze. She comforted him, “Don’t worry, I’ll be careful.”
Li Nanchen clearly knew that the person Wu Mei wanted to save was her mother. No one could stop her.
He forced a smile. “Okay. I’ll wait until you get back.”
Everything was going according to plan.
When Wu Mei came out of the car and went around to the other side, the bodyguard honked.
It seemed to be a signal.
As expected, the person in the car moved.
He straightened his suit, pulled down his hat, put his hand in his trouser pocket, and hurried over.
Li Nanchen was shocked to see a gun in Wu Pang’s pocket.
Wu Pang had learned a lot from Mo Li.
Li Nanchen lowered his voice and reminded the bodyguard, “You have to be careful. He has a gun in his hand.”
The bodyguard nodded seriously. “Don’t worry, President Li. The car windows are bulletproof.”
Li Nanchen was stunned at first, but then he could not help but sneer. “That’s true. They have to be more careful.”
On the other side, Wu Mei walked along the inner side of the car and bent down to approach the door of the backseat.
If the person in the car was not Mother Wu but someone else who had ambushed her earlier, she would not show any mercy.
Wu Mei opened the car door and gasped when she saw that Mother Wu’s mouth was wrapped in duct tape and her hands were tied. Her forehead was injured and her face was flushed with an abnormal redness.
She tore off the tape and ripped the rope that was not secure, so that Mother Wu could get some air.
Mother Wu opened her eyes in a daze and muttered, “Wu Pang, you are not human.” After which, she was helped out of the car by Wu Mei.
“No, I don’t want to leave, you don’t…” Mother Wu thought that the person holding her was Wu Pang, so she immediately used her strength to push the person away.
Wu Mei lowered her voice and kept calling, “Mom, Mom, it’s me.”
When Mother Wu heard Wu Mei’s voice, she carefully looked at the person in front of her. When she realized that it was Wu Mei, she immediately revealed a surprised expression and then became especially frightened.
Without hesitation, she reached out and pushed Wu Mei away. “Leave, leave quickly.”
“Yes, it’s me.” Wu Mei mistakenly thought that Mother Wu was in a confused state of mind once again after being threatened by Wu Pang. She was secretly glad that she was the one who came to save Mother Wu and not Li Nanchen.
Mother Wu cried anxiously, “Wu Pang has gotten in touch with Mo Li. They set this up.”
Wu Mei was stunned for a moment. At the same time, she felt that someone was secretly approaching her.
“Mom, hide well,” Wu Mei immediately told Mother Wu.
Mother Wu quickly retreated and saw a man in a suit and a baseball cap. He had a pistol in his hand and was aiming it at Wu Mei.
Was Wu Pang back?
No.
Wu Mei quickly turned around and grabbed the wrist of the man who was holding the gun. She shoved his hand towards the sky and noticed that the man only had a face shaped like Wu Pang. It was probably to confuse the person who came to save Mother Wu.
The man who had just come out of the car was also dressed like this.
They had more than one person lying in ambush.
Wu Mei was so angry that she let out a cold laugh. “Are you a killer? Mo Li is so considerate.” She immediately pulled the killer in front of her.
The killer noticed the movement of Wu Mei’s hand and immediately showed a frightened expression. When he dodged backwards, it gave Wu Mei a chance.
Wu Mei dismantled the gun with one hand and let the bullet fall to the floor. She raised her hand to strike the killer’s jaw.
Instinctively, the killer opened his mouth to spit out a tooth that had been knocked out, before turning to flee.
This was not enough.
When she thought about how this was a trap set up by Wu Pang and Mo Li, Wu Mei held back her anger and grabbed the back of the killer’s collar, dragging him back.
The killer was about to turn around and resist when Wu Mei struck his neck several times.
The killer fainted on the ground.
Wu Mei flicked her wrist and smiled disdainfully. “Arranging such a weak killer, is there no one else?”
All of this happened in less than ten seconds.
Wu Mei deliberately left a survivor in the hope that it would be helpful for further interrogation.
She turned to face Mother Wu and said, “Mom, let’s go somewhere safe first.”
