Chapter 455 - Nice To Meet You Again

The leader pressed the gun against her temple. He was still rattled seeing the dead bodies of all his men, lying in a puddle of their own pool of blood. It was a horrifying scene that sent chills down his spine.

At first, he saw his men pouncing on Lu Bojing, and he was arrogant that he would be dead in no time. As a leader, he left such a minion type job to his subordinates. But to his terror, blood was spilled from his men and not that lone man.

Lu Bojing's moves seemed ten times deadlier. Something was odd about his strength. One careless move, and death was on the other side of the door. He was agitated, but he was quick to realize that it was hopeless to fight against him.

So in that advantage of confusion and ruckus, he quietly slipped from the crowd and began to approach Lihua. After seeing the cat viciously kill one of his men by tearing apart his throat, he couldn't thank his stars enough that he wasn't reckless like him. Nobody knew that the cat was equally ferocious.

After Qingqing and Lu Bojing were on one end, he jumped on this chance to attack her as she was alone.

"You bastard! Now I have the upper hand!"

Lu Bojing blinked his eyes. He looked like a ghost. Pointing a gun at Lihua's head…

"You are not doing the right thing…" tears plopped from his eyes, "Put the g-gun down. You will pay for this...you will pay for this…"

He blamed himself for the situation coming to this point.

I am so useless! I am so useless! How did I miss him?

Qingqing was itching to tear his face apart, but her sharp intuition said that something was amiss. She didn't dare to make any reckless move.

Lu Bojing had only moved a bit and that leader immediately jammed the gun tighter. "Don't fucking move or I will blow her brains out!"

Lihua stood terrified. If it was before, then she wouldn't have. But now her baby's safety made her anxious and fearful.

That leader knew Lu Bojing was agile and strong. He couldn't relax even for a second, or he would lose this golden chance too.

"Just come with us, and I will spare her. If you did anything unnecessary then…"

Lu Bojing trembled. His knuckles made a crackling sound as he clenched his fingers. "You will pay for this…You let her go."

"Shut up! You will do as I say. Go back and sit in the driver seat of that car behind you."

Lu Bojing didn't move.

The leader's finger pressed on the trigger. Lihua hastily shook her head. "Bojing. Please do as he says…"

He stiffened. His eyes teared up, and he felt pathetic and angry at himself. Qingqing felt his muscles tense up, and the sorrow emanating from his aura. His cries twitched her ears.

*Meow*

She lightly licked his index finger and nudged her head.

It's not your fault, human.

Lihua pursed her lips. "You know we cannot be reckless…"

For the sake of the child's life, they couldn't. A bullet was faster. She didn't want to risk it.

Lu Bojing shook his head. "He won't kill you…"

The leader's face blackened.

"Y-you won't do it because it's an order from your Boss...He wants something from her, so it m-means that he wants her alive. That's why you want to kidnap her...If you kill her, your Boss will kill you for disobedience."

The leader froze.

What Lu Bojing was saying was absolutely true. Jiang Zhen wanted Lihua. He didn't know the purpose, but she had some use for him.

"I don't think," Lu Bojing shriveled, "you wish to die…"

The leader gritted his teeth. "Shut up! Even if he wants her alive, so what? Do you think I am afraid of your threat!? You fucking killed my whole A-team! It would be unnatural if I don't do this!"

Lu Bojing tilted his head. "This was your A-team?" He pursed his lips and lowered his head, "Weak…"

His face contorted into an ugly expression.

Lihua knew it wasn't the time to laugh, but her lips twitched uncontrollably.

The leader sneered. "Do you really want to challenge my patience?" Sure, the Boss wants me to bring her alive, but once he knows that you killed my entire team, and killing this bitch was the only way to stop you, do you think he would blame me for that?"

The situation came to a stalemate. In a life or death situation, it wasn't impossible for the original mission to change.

Lihua quickly said, "Bojing, let it go. Don't argue anymore…"

Lu Bojing bit his lip with tears shining in his eyes.

"Now, quick! Get in the car, you piece of shit! You will drive the car. This bitch and I sit at the back so that you don't pull any tricks! Get in!"

He obliged. He sat in the driver's seat with Qingqing on his lap. She was hissing fiercely in anger.

The leader pushed Lihua in his front, not relaxing the gun even for a moment. Her heart raced in trepidation. She only prayed for her child, Lu Bojing and Qingqing's safety.

He sneered. "Let's go. Time to meet the Boss."

---

"Boss, I have brought her!"

They stepped into a mansion filled with darkness and gloom. The air was heavy and suffocating.

Lihua saw a big chair and someone seated with his right leg on top of his left as if he was some king. His face was shrouded in darkness and was leaning on his right hand.

"Welcome, Song Lihua."

An eerie voice spoke.

She frowned.

He is Jiang Shan? He doesn't sound like an old person…

In fact, the voice sounded young. But it was strange. Lihua felt as if she had heard that voice before. She shuddered unknowingly.

The man got up from his chair and slowly walked towards her, his every step echoing hauntingly in the eerie silence.

As he came into the light and came face to face with her, Lihua and Lu Bojing froze in their spot.

"You…?"

He smiled. "Nice to meet you again. I am Jiang Zhen.. Welcome to the true Jiang's residence."
