"Who killed them?" Gu Lili supported him as they walked over, opened the car door, and let the injured him lean against the back of the seat while she checked the dead bodies.
She squatted down, removed the black masks from the faces of the dead, and looked up at Long Yubei, "They are from Country T."
"There’s no escape, it was his doing, it seems he now has the capability to put the Long Family members to death."
"He probably isn’t planning to hide his identity anymore, sending such obvious people to kill you, it’s clear, he likely did it on purpose."
Gu Lili searched their bodies but didn’t find anything.
Tang Qingli arrived later, Gu Lili and Long Yubei got into his car, leaving him and others to deal with the aftermath.
Long Yubei did not return to Qin Garden before he fainted. Once home, the family doctor removed the bullet from Long Yubei’s back, applied medicine, bandaged it, and fixed an IV before Gu Lili came in from outside.
He was lying there with his eyes tightly closed, his face turned towards her, motionless.
Gu Lili bent down and kissed his face, her hand resting on his hair.
Tonight, he made her heart flutter.
The next day at dawn, Gu Lili woke up.
She opened her eyes and met his gaze.
Gu Lili’s eyes fell on his hair, "Did you... take a bath?" The source of thɪs content is n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
"You’re crazy, you have a wound on your back, what if it gets infected?"
Long Yubei grinned, "I didn’t let the wound touch water."
Gu Lili rested her head on his arm, "Last night was unexpectedly dangerous, this Andong Fengling, we didn’t bother him, yet he keeps provoking us."
"He probably had everything planned out long ago, purposefully carrying out his mad plan."
"What are you planning to do?"
He stroked her hair, "You don’t need to worry about that, your husband has his own plans."
"Knock, knock, knock."
Tang Qingli reported from outside the door, "Young master, the surveillance at Ring River broke last night, no one knows about this incident, I’ve already handled the corpses of those dead, and the helicopter that fell into the river last night has been salvaged. According to the aircraft type, it’s confirmed to be the one bought by the Anton Family the year before last. I’ve already contacted the old master of the Anton Family in Country T, negotiated this matter with them, and they said they would investigate this thoroughly and give us an explanation soon."
"Got it, prepare breakfast, I’m hungry."
Tang Qingli’s footsteps receded, Long Yubei turned to face her, "What do you think the Anton Family’s so-called explanation will be?"
"Compensation." Gu Lili didn’t even need to guess, "These people have nothing but money, I don’t believe Andong Fengling used the helicopter without the Anton Family knowing. Andong Fengling isn’t Antonio; he’s not the heir, how could he have the right to use the helicopter? Could it be that the Anton Family is greedy, thinking of using the fact that Andong Fengling is your father’s illegitimate son to target the Long Group?"
"You are indeed my wife, right on the mark. What you said is also what I was thinking, capitalists are always greedy."
"May they choke on their greed."
"Who really carried out the act of the helicopter crashing into the river and those masked men who died by our car, it’s a bit baffling."
"Why do I always feel like it might have been Thunderstruck?"
He smiled faintly, "It’s not that easy to get struck into the river, plus, as heavy as last night’s rain was, the lightning and Thunderstruck were much lesser, it’s definitely someone else’s doing."
