"Everyone get ready, as soon as they get out of the car, move in immediately and capture them. Remember, we need them alive."
Blood Wolf guessed that the two would eventually return here. Although he followed them all along, he had his subordinates lying in ambush waiting.
Watching the car slowly drive into the underground parking, Blood Wolf's car also followed gradually. He didn't dare to alert them; the lesson from his last injury taught him what patience means.
Actually, Shen Junjie and the others were waiting downstairs, some distance from the underground parking lot. They didn't know that Xiaofan could drive, and didn't guess Xiaofan would have a car to drive. They weren't even sure if Ye Xiaofan would return here in the end, let alone with Shen Zuimo. So, even with his sister nearby, Shen Junjie hadn't discovered anything.
On the other side, unaware of being surrounded, Xiaofan slowly drove into the garage. Because it's a temporary parking spot, every entry and exit requires a ticket.
"Zuimo, have you still been having nightmares recently?" Xiaofan asked softly as they waited for the car in front to take a ticket.
"Hmm? Not when I'm sleeping with you, I sleep very soundly. But don't get too cocky... huh?" Originally, Shen Zuimo thought Xiaofan was teasing her, but she didn't expect Xiaofan's expression to be somewhat serious.
"I've had nightmares, so I kind of understand how you feel. In that incident before, I fired shots and probably killed about six people. Before meeting you, I never thought I could kill a living person. But you were right, if you don't kill the other person, then you'll be killed. Such a painful realization." Xiaofan said, shaking his head with a bitter smile.
"I'm sorry, it's all my fault..."
"No, I've never regretted meeting you. Saving you that day at Phoenix Mountain was the best thing I've ever done. I just wonder, how have you managed all these years? Being an assassin must be painful, right?"
Faced with Xiaofan's tenderness, Shen Zuimo suddenly felt choked up. She really didn't expect a man to be so considerate of her own feelings. Even though she had lost her memory, the pain in her heart hadn't disappeared; there were always lingering shadows in her deepest memories.
Shen Zuimo had wanted to confide in someone multiple times, but her pride stopped her from showing her vulnerable side to others. Yet this guy completely enveloped her inner world.
"Hey, what's wrong?" Seeing Shen Zuimo suddenly shed a tear without warning, Xiaofan panicked a bit.
'Pfft.'
Indeed, she had irretrievably fallen for this younger guy, completely smitten.
Shen Zuimo suddenly throwing herself over surprised Xiaofan a bit, but he quickly made the right response, soothing the lovely person in front of him.
"Whew. Little rascal?" Shen Zuimo gently pulled away, glancing at the paw still resting on her.
"Ahem, a habitual gesture, damn it, I can't seem to change it." Xiaofan laughed and pulled back his paw, then used his other hand to slap himself twice, "How many times have I told you? If you mess around again, it'll get chopped off."
"Ah, you rascal." Watching Xiaofan fool around, Shen Zuimo playfully scolded and lunged at him.
The two started to play fight in the confined space. This playful tussle, similar to displaying affection, ended with Xiaofan tightly holding Shen Zuimo in an embrace.
"Zuimo, if possible, I wish to stay by your side forever, so you'll never have another nightmare."
Her heart was once again deeply touched by this man. The sense of being moved flowed out like a flood.
She knew this wasn't real and also understood that nothing lasts forever. Yet she was still incredibly touched. She almost wanted to tease Xiaofan by asking, what about Liu Siyan? But in the end, she didn't say it, because a sensible woman wouldn't dampen a man's spirits at such a moment.
"Alright, let's get going." Shen Zuimo giggled, gave Xiaofan a light kiss on the cheek, tidied her messy clothes, and prepared to open the car door to leave.
But just as Shen Zuimo was about to open the door, all the car doors and windows suddenly locked tight.
"Xiaofan, stop messing around." Shen Zuimo rolled her eyes, knowing that the only way to lock all the doors and windows at once was from the driver's seat. But when she saw Xiaofan's expression, she froze.
His demeanor was solemn, as if he had discovered something terrible.
"Buckle up. We might be surrounded. Moreover, it could be the same group of assassins that chased you last time. If it were the police, they would have blocked all entrances and exits as soon as we entered the underground parking lot, with a swarm of officers rushing in, not quietly hiding in the back waiting for us to step out."
Yes, when Xiaofan saw Zuimo about to get out, he instinctively glanced at the rearview mirror. It's a reflex for drivers to check behind before opening the door, even in an underground parking lot. This instinctive glance allowed him to spot a man about seven or eight meters away hiding behind the car, peeking their way.
The atmosphere changed too fast. When Shen Zuimo reacted again, Xiaofan had already restarted the car.
"Don't panic; they might not know we've spotted them. They want us to get out. Stay calm, stay calm, and we'll drive back out slowly. Phew, phew..." Xiaofan said to calm himself, but he was scared stiff. He didn't know how many assassins there were, and if each of them had Zuimo's skills, he'd be dead for sure.
"Blood Wolf, they started the car again. A moment ago they stopped for a bit, playfully bickering inside, now they're preparing to leave. Did they forget to buy something?"
"Playfully bickering?" Blood Wolf, who hadn't entered the underground parking yet, was a little surprised when he received the call. Just when Nightingale was about to fall into their trap, why were they leaving?
"Yeah, they even kissed inside the car earlier. Almost got the car rocking." The assassin on the phone watched as Xiaofan drove the car out slowly, continuing, "They're about to leave. Should we make a move or wait?"
"Wait a bit..." Blood Wolf had already heard a car driving his way. The boss gave strict orders, demanding them alive. If they refused to come out from the car, they'd have to resort to special measures. Causing a scene here would draw attention and lead to mistakes, and Blood Wolf certainly didn't want to die from that. So he didn't dare act rashly.
The car slowly drove past Blood Wolf. However, at that moment, Blood Wolf's pupils suddenly dilated.
"Damn it, they've spotted you. Everyone get in the cars and chase them!" Blood Wolf immediately swung his car around, cranked the engine, and gave chase.
Indeed, Blood Wolf had seen from the car that Xiaofan and Shen Zuimo's faces were pale, their expressions serious. There was no hint of the tenderness from moments ago, clearly indicating they'd realized someone was tailing them.
It was fortunate that Xiaofan acted natural; he drove leisurely, giving no hint of suspecting anything.
Once they hit the road, Xiaofan quickly shifted from second gear to fourth, stomped on the accelerator, and sped away. A man at the roadside nearly got hit by Xiaofan while lighting a newly bought cigarette but managed an acrobatic dodge. Before he could swear, Blood Wolf's car raced past, followed by several other vehicles.
The man holding the cigarette showed a startled expression and quickly picked up his phone: "Hey, Junjie, I just saw that kid and your sister, and Blood Wolf is chasing them."
