Chapter 172 The fight to the death
There was a hint of disbelief in Lu Anan's voice, but also a bit of relief.
Lu Wenjing nodded: "Yes, An'an."
Lu Anan nodded, patted Lu Wenjing's shoulder with relief, and said with a smile: "Forget it, in this case, I forgive you."
After that, she pointed at the bodyguards standing by quietly at the bottom of the stairs and asked doubtfully, "Brother, you brought so many bodyguards to the hospital, are you planning to do something big?"
Hearing this, Lu Wenjing explained, "Your third brother called me and insisted that I find him a hundred bodyguards to protect his personal safety and prevent any medical troubles. I couldn't persuade him, so I brought these. A hundred would be too ostentatious, so I found twenty just to show my respect."
The corners of Lu Anan's mouth twitched.
[What a touching brotherly love this is, just show your appreciation. ]
Lu Wenjing smiled and rubbed Lu Anan's hair. "It's because Big Brother knows that with you by his side, there's no need to worry about his safety. That's why he's so relieved. These 20 bodyguards, after all, are more to protect you. Your Third Brother... is lucky."
[I said I forgot something. The issue of my heart’s voice has not been resolved yet! ]
Lu Anan hadn't gotten used to the fact that they could respond to her thoughts yet, so she didn't dare to think too much. She smiled stiffly and pushed Lu Wenjing into the elevator. When the elevator door slowly closed, she quickly waved her hand, "Brother, go find the second and third brothers first. I'll do something downstairs and come up later!"
Watching the elevator slowly go up, Lu Anan breathed a sigh of relief and began to frantically call customer service.
【7758!!! Please connect me to the master!!!】
The customer service representative was slacking off at his workstation. When he heard Lu Anan's voice, he was startled and hurriedly connected online to reply.
[Customer Service: Dear~ Can you tell me your request first? If 7758 can solve the problem, there is no need to contact your superior~]
Lu Anan had no expression on her face.
[Can you help me solve the problem of having my voice heard? ]
【customer service:……】
[Customer Service: Please wait a moment, we are transferring your call. ]
Lu Anan snorted coldly.
【Little waste.】
The customer service staff swallowed their anger and contacted their own director for Lu Anan.
At this time, the master had just adjusted himself, leisurely took out a novel about the group pet in the crematorium, and prepared to spend a leisurely afternoon, when he received eight consecutive fatal calls from the customer service.
He took out his communicator and asked lazily, "What happened?"
The customer service’s explanation was tearful.
"Director, your apprentice asked me to contact you. I hope you can help solve the problem of her mind being read by someone."
The master was stunned for a moment, raised his hand and touched the tip of his nose, with a hint of embarrassment on his face: "Forget about this, tell her that I have adjusted the authority of the inner voice, and she can control it as she pleases from now on."
The customer service stepped back and quickly conveyed the news to Lu Anan.
[Customer Service: Dear, your master said that the permissions for listening to your inner voice have been changed. You can control the time and scope of listening to your inner voice yourself~]
Lu Anan nodded with satisfaction, and then asked with some disgust.
【Your selection is not over yet? 】
[Customer Service: It’s the final round! So I must stay alive! ]
Lu Anan's eyes twitched.
[Everything is different, I wish you success. 】
The customer service pretended not to understand Lu Anan's ridicule.
[Customer Service: OK dear ~ Thank you for your praise ~ Welcome to use it next time ~]
Lu Anan: "..."
Have I become too skilled at self-deception?
As the matter of being eavesdropped on was resolved, Lu Anan breathed a sigh of relief. When she turned around, she inadvertently caught a glimpse of a silver-white sedan parked not far away, which made her involuntarily cast a few more inquiring glances.
At this moment, the car window slowly lowered, and Pei Sheng's deep eyes, with some indescribable emotions, looked at her from afar.
The two looked at each other from a distance, and there was a subtle atmosphere of confrontation in the air.
Lu Anan stared at Pei Sheng, raised his hand, slowly wiped his neck, made an international hand gesture, then turned around without hesitation and entered the hospital.
Pei Sheng's deep gaze was fixed on Lu Anan's receding back for a long time, and a self-deprecating arc appeared at the corner of his mouth. Then, he slowly raised the car window and told the driver to drive.
He lowered his head and crossed his legs elegantly. Although the pain from the wound in his abdomen continued to bother him, he had no time to pay attention to it.
At this moment, the memories that had been tormenting him invaded his brain one after another, making his eyes gradually filled with hostility.
Number One, who was sitting next to him, keenly sensed the murderous aura in Pei Sheng that was almost capable of destroying the world. A deep sense of worry surged in his heart, and he called out softly, "Master?"
Pei Sheng gently closed his eyes, his body slowly relaxed with the rhythm of his breathing, leaning back on the chair, his tone was indifferent but could not hide the alienation and indifference underneath: "It's okay."
He slowly closed his eyes, hiding those eyes that were filled with self-mockery and hidden pain. A smile appeared on his lips, but it was so cold that there was no warmth at all.
Why am I still so upset?
Obviously, you've gotten used to it, haven't you?
After a long while, Pei Sheng opened his eyes again. His eyes had regained their usual calmness, and he said indifferently, "As for Lu Xunran, the original plan may not work. All the scattered personnel should be withdrawn. Perhaps we should fight a quick battle and make a quick decision."
He paused for a moment, then slowly turned his head and looked at No. 1, who had always been respectful to him. His expression was gloomy and unclear: "Xiaoyi, are you afraid of death?"
Upon hearing this, Number One's body trembled slightly, but it only lasted for a moment. He then returned to his calm demeanor and replied respectfully, "Master, if you want me to die, I will carefully select the right tools for you."
Pei Sheng laughed softly: "Xiaoyi...you really are..."
He gently raised two fingers and placed them on his forehead, saying in a playful voice, "It's time for the captured Gu Master to play a role. It will be fun if the capital city becomes chaotic."
When Number One heard this, he already understood Pei Sheng's intention. Without saying much, he just responded softly and began to make a series of detailed plans.
Suddenly, his movements paused, his eyes flickered for a moment, and he finally uttered a word that crossed the line: "Master, Number One hopes to live well with you, Master."
He silently continued his unfinished words in his heart.
If... he can't survive, it doesn't matter. As long as his master can live safely in this world, he will be satisfied.
Pei Sheng was slightly startled when he heard this, then a hint of sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and his tone suddenly turned cold: "Go back and accept your punishment. If you don't know what you shouldn't say, there is no need for you to continue sitting in this position."
Number One pursed his lips slightly and accepted the punishment.
Pei Sheng closed his eyes again, his thoughts flashing back like the tide, every scene was as clear as yesterday. He thought of the eye contact between Lu Anan and him just now, and curled his lips in sarcasm again.
An An, should I think that you are back or that you are dead?
