He needed to buy time until Nian Jiezhen's arrival.

Not long after he arrived in the place, three black cars stopped and a couple of armed men came out.

"Does he think he can hide here? He's not so smart after all." Lin Yiyang snickered. 

"Find him and kill him!" He ordered his men.

They entered the abandoned building. The building was empty. The corrugated walls were rusted. They searched for Lu Yifeng inside, every one of them in high alert.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

Lu Yifeng has already managed to get on the fifth floor, his footsteps were as quiet as possible.

Lin Yiyang and his men kept looking for him and while they did, a gunshot was suddenly heard.

One of Lin Yiyang's men who reached the fifth floor was shot dead by Lu Yifeng.

...

Upon reaching the abandoned building, Nian Jiezhen and the police entered, all of them careful since there were armed men insides.

It was then that they heard gunshots coming from above that they started rus.h.i.+ng to where it was.

One of Lin Yiyang's men saw the police and instead of putting his weapon down, he started shooting at them.

The police didn't have a choice but to shoot back since their lives were in danger.

It was then that Lin Yiyang and his men started shooting back at the police.

While they were at it, Nian Jiezhen went looking for Lu Yifeng while they were being covered by other police.

Lu Yifeng was hiding inside a room. He was out of bullets and knowing that Nian Jiezhen and her team arrived, he felt relieved.

When Nian Jiezhen saw Lu Yifeng, she sighed in relief. She rushed to his side.

"Took you long enough." Lu Yifeng chuckled a bit.

"I never thought that a day will come where I have to save your a.s.s." Nian Jiezhen snickered, handing Lu Yifeng her extra gun.

"It can't be helped. I can't die right now."

"Anyway, we should get going."

Lu Yifeng and Nian Jiezhen left the room. 

Allen went towards them, "We've captured everyone. They finally gave up."

"Thank goodness they did."

As they head out of the building, Lu Yifeng noticed that there was one missing person in Lin Yiyang's group. It was Lin Yiyang himself.

"It's not everyone, he's not here."

"Who?" Nian Jiezhen furrowed her brows.

"Lin Yiyang."

Nian Jiezhen was about to say something when she suddenly noticed someone hiding behind a tree that was not far from them. She was only able to see him because he was pointing his gun towards Lu Yifeng.

"Watch out!"

It has been days since Ren s.h.i.+yuan last left his suite. Ever since Nian Jiezhen rejected his proposal, he locked himself in his place because of the severe heartache he felt.

"Ren s.h.i.+yuan, wake up!" Tang Bin, Ren s.h.i.+yuan's manager exclaimed while he was cleaning his room since it was full of canned beer and other alcoholic beverages that were on the bottles.

Ren s.h.i.+yuan groaned as he felt his headache. Aside from that, he was feeling groggy.

"There's a hangover soup in the dining room, go eat it before it gets cold. You have to meet with Mr. Yun today so get up already."

With a heavy body, Ren s.h.i.+yuan got off his bed, his eyes blank and empty. For the past few days, Nian Jiezhen's rejection was really a fatal blow for him. Everything was going well for them and they managed to work things out with each other but what went wrong with his proposal?

He still couldn't get over the fact that she rejected him for real and that they broke up in the end.

After eating the hangover soup, he went to get some bath and wore a black s.h.i.+rt with a navy coat over.

He was tempted to give Nian Jiezhen a call but he didn't know what to say to her.

Come back to him?

Will she even listen to what he will have to say to her?

Ren s.h.i.+yuan was already in the car as his manager drove him to the place where he will be meeting a Director.

When Ren s.h.i.+yuan took his phone out and checked for any calls or messages, he saw a message from Nian Jiezhen. His heart started pounding like crazy when he saw the pet name he gave for her.

[From: Princess ♥

8:34 AM

Can we talk?]

The message was sent early this morning and it was already past lunchtime.

Worried that Nian Jiezhen might misunderstand him for not replying, he quickly started typing a message for her.

[Where should we meet?]

After sending the message, he quickly added, [And what time?]

Ren s.h.i.+yuan kept tapping his finger on his lap as he waited for a reply but minutes past and there was no reply from her.

As he was being impatient, he tried calling her instead but... his call didn't go through since her phone was off.

Ren s.h.i.+yuan couldn't help but feel irritated when Nian Jiezhen wasn't answering his call. What was she doing right now? Where was she? Why was she not answering him?

"... shooting nearby the National Park. According to the information we got, Lin Yiyang, a subordinate of Yong Biqi was after Lu Yifeng's life. The police were able to get in time but because Lin Yiyang and his men refused to give themselves up, the police were forced to fight back. As a result, Five were killed in Lin Yiyang's side, including himself while, four from the law enforcers were injured and one Interpol officer was shot dead..."

Interpol officer? 

Didn't Nian Jiezhen come because she was working in a case? If he remembered correctly, it was a case that involved Xia Meilin, right?

Ren s.h.i.+yuan furrowed his brows when he heard the report from the radio. "Make it louder."

"Huh?"

"The News!"

Tang Bin was startled because of Ren s.h.i.+yuan's sudden loud remark. He quickly turned the radio loud for him.

"A total of 12 people were brought to Chanyang hospital for-"

"Turn the car around!" Ren s.h.i.+yuan shouted. For some reason, he couldn't stop himself from thinking of Nian Jiezhen.

One dead Interpol officer? It couldn't be Nian Jiezhen, right? But why was he suddenly feeling so nervous about it?

Nian Jiezhen wasn't answering his messages or calls. He couldn't reach her at all.

"But Mr. Yun is-"

"I don't give an f*ck! Turn the car around and drive fast to Chanyang Hospital! NOW!!!"

He could only hope that the Interpol officer that was shot dead wasn't Nian Jiezhen.
