“Bang! Bang! Bang…”

A few men in black were once again entangled by Ning Xue.

The old man shouted, “Aren’t you all assassins? Just because she knows some kung fu, you can’t do anything to her?”

The men in black were speechless.

Chinese kung fu was very powerful, okay?

After getting rid of all the men, Ning Xue quickly started running. Not far away, there was a path, which looked very isolated.

The old man shouted hysterically behind her, “Forget it! Use your guns! Shoot her legs, don’t aim her hands!”

Ning Xue was shocked. They had guns? !

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

A few shots were fired.

“You’re dead!”

The old man shouted.

“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Several bullets flew by Ning Xue.

“Bang!””Bang!””Bang!”

“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang…”

One bullet hit Ning Xue’s waist; she’s bleeding immediately.

“Ah!”Ning Xue let out a low cry of pain.

“Hurry up, go get her! Don’t let her escape, don’t let her escape, don’t let her escape!”

“Important things need to be said three times!”

The old man roared from behind.

“Yes!”

Ning Xue fell to the ground. Her body landed next to a tree by the road; she felt a sharp pain coming from the wound.

She crawled behind the tree and hid.

Suddenly, a big hand circled her waist, pulled her up into a warm embrace, and covered her mouth.

“Don’t be scared. It’s me.”

Jiang Sheng didn’t leave. He felt something strange about the old man. Besides, he’d like to find out whether Ning Xue was the mysterious international artist ISI, therefore, he decided to stay in the park.

As soon as he saw the group of men in black, he called the police.

The police should be here soon.

Just as the men in black were getting closer to Ning Xue and Jiang Sheng who were hiding behind the tree, they heard the sound of police sirens.

The men in black went back immediately.

“The police are here. We have to leave.”

The old man cursed, “Damn it! Don’t worry. There are no surveillance cameras here. The police won’t believe the words of an unknown artist. I’ll protect you all.”

He shouted again, “Little girl, if you dare to talk nonsense, I swear I’ll kill you next time.”

Jiang Sheng felt Ning Xue was shaking in his arms. He took off his coat and wrapped it around her.

“You’re injured badly. I’ll send you to the hospital now.”

“Don’t…”

“If you don’t let me send you to the hospital, then you’ll have to let me carry you away.”

Jiang Sheng threatened coldly.

Without even waiting for her answer, he lifted her up and walked towards the exit of the park carrying her.

“You…”

The Old Man’s face turned ashen when he saw them.

“Michael, is it? Consider yourself dead.”

Jiang Sheng coldly threatened the old man.

“You…”

The old man was so angry that his entire body was trembling. The assassins he hired had left already; they slipped into the crowd in disguise so that they wouldn’t expose themselves in front of the police.

To his surprise, Jiang Sheng would actually threaten him because of a woman he hardly knew.

After all, he was an internationally famous painter, and behind Jiang Sheng was the Jiang Group of China.

They should be friends.

He was never treated like this before!

At this moment, a few police cars quickly drove into the park.

“Hello, May I ask what happened here?”

A policeman got out of the car and walked towards the old man.

“Hello, Officer! We are trying to catch a thief, but she escaped. We are about to call the police!”

The old man said quickly.

“Really? Then you need to help us with our investigation.”

The police officer showed the old man his badge.

“Okay.”

The old man checked the badge obediently.

“You need to come with us first.”

The police officer said.

“Okay, okay.”

The old man nodded yes.

He had never thought that he would suffer such a humiliating defeat because of a little girl.

Who was she anyway?

The old man was a little puzzled. Could she be one of those top mercenaries in the world?

Jiang Sheng carried Ning Xue and ran towards the park’s gate. He felt relieved.

Ning Xue survived. That was great!

Ning Xue was held tightly by Jiang Sheng. She could easily smell his unique male scent, which made Ning Xue a little uncomfortable.

She was not used to being so close to a man’s body.

But she had to admit she didn’t hate it, and she felt very warm.

Jiang Sheng carried Ning Xue to the car.

The driver quickly started the car and drove away.

Ning Xue lay in the car. Her face was pale, her body was twisted because of pain, and her face was covered in cold sweat.

“Are you okay?”

Jiang Sheng asked her anxiously.

“I. . .”

Ning Xue opened her eyes with some difficulty and looked at Jiang Sheng weakly.

Jiang Sheng looked at Ning Xue’s pale face and became even more anxious.

He reached out and grabbed Ning Xue’s wrist.

“I’m Fine!”

Ning Xue spat out two words with great difficulty.

Jiang Sheng frowned even more when he heard that.

“I understand. Don’t worry. You’ll be fine. Don’t be afraid.”

“Ok, thank you.”

“I know that your identity is probably a secret. If you don’t want to go to the hospital, how about coming to my house? I have a family doctor.”

“Okay.”

Ning Xue did not know that she would be injured so seriously this time..
