The military wife is pregnant and the tycoon, who has no heir, spoils her rotten.

Chapter 29 Speed ​​of Life and Death

"what!"

The two people who were talking looked warily in her direction.

Hiding in the bushes, Xia Zhixin's heart was in her throat. Two burly men with guns—if she took a gamble, her bicycle would turn into a motorcycle.

……

Down the mountain, Lu Beiting sat in the doorway basking in the sun, his gaze fixed on the vacant lot that Xia Zhi had cleared out the night before. Just as he was about to turn around and go back inside, it felt like something had hit him on the head.

Then he felt a weight in his arms. Looking down, he saw a dirty little monkey rubbing its head, which had been bruised, and making muffled noises, as if it really hurt.

The little monkey looked up at him, then tugged at his clothes, and then excitedly began to pull at them.

Lu Beiting looked at the little monkey in his arms with a puzzled expression, picked it up with one hand, and saw the candy that had fallen off its body.

"Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi!"

Hearing the loud voice, Zhang Yi rushed in, "What's wrong, Battalion Commander?"

"Go with him up the mountain to see if anything has happened. Remember to bring a few extra people with you," Lu Beiting said, tossing the little monkey to him.

Zhang Yi carried the little monkey to look for someone, while Lu Beiting looked at the surrounding mountains with a furrowed brow. A few seconds later, he looked down at his legs in frustration.

He can't do anything, so what's the difference between him and a piece of trash?

It will only harm Xia Zhi; she deserves better.

Lu Beiting clenched his fists repeatedly on his lap, then relaxed them, turning back into the house with an ambiguous expression in his eyes.

Led by the little monkey, Zhang Yi went up the mountain. Seeing that they were heading deeper into the mountains, Zhang Yi and Xu Rufeng exchanged a glance, and then the group bent over and carefully walked into the mountains.

Meanwhile, Xia Zhi was running through the woods.

"Quickly grab her, don't let her tell on us."

"Damn it, that bitch shattered my silencer, otherwise I would have shot her dead!"

Xia Zhi ran, weaving left and right, with the two people chasing after her relentlessly.

When the two men first noticed her location, they walked toward her. Just then, a rabbit ran out from behind her, which dispelled their doubts.

She originally planned to hide quietly and wait for someone to come, but the two people went in the direction of the giant pandas, and after some hesitation...

She picked up a stone from the side, and while the man wasn't looking, she argued with him for a while, smashed the muffler, and ran away.

Fortunately, her gamble paid off; without the silencer, the two men dared not fire.

She gripped the anesthetic in her hand tightly, ready to take a gamble if absolutely necessary.

Xia Zhi realized she had run quite far and couldn't help but feel anxious. At this rate, even if someone arrived, they might not be able to find her.

Zhang Yi and Xu Rufeng led their men to search the mountain and soon found animal carcasses scattered on the ground, as well as fragments of a silencer in the nearby bushes.

"This... Oh no, my sister-in-law may have already run into the people on the other side."

Xu Rufeng's expression was grave. "The silencer is gone, but no gunshots have been fired, which means the person is safe. Speed ​​things up."

And Zhang San, you go down the mountain immediately and inform them to flank us from the opposite mountain.

"Okay." Zhang San, carrying his gear, sprinted down the mountain. For them, going downhill wasn't difficult; they just needed to choose the right route and run straight down. (Haha, tested this in middle school! Just run straight down!)
Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, Zhang San rushed directly into the army camp and began calling for reinforcements.

Hearing the commotion outside, Lu Beiting finally went out. As soon as he came out, he encountered Zhang San, who was leading a group of men and looking menacing.

"Zhang San, what happened?"

His clear eyes scanned the surroundings but did not see Xia Zhi and the others, and his brows furrowed involuntarily.

"Oh, Battalion Commander, those guys over there are causing trouble. They've crossed the border. Squad Leader Xu ordered me to lead men to outflank them from that mountain." Zhang San said, pointing to another mountain not far away. Lu Beiting was so anxious that he tried to get up, but after moving for a while, he realized that he couldn't even stand up.

He let out a heavy sigh. "Yes, if necessary, don't leave any survivors."

"Yes!"

Zhang San gave a military salute, then led his men and ran quickly up the mountain.

Lu Beiting went back into the house to get his binoculars and then began searching the mountains.

We don't know what their purpose is this time, but whatever it is, never think about getting past their defenses!

……

"Old Yao, how can that damn woman run so fast? Damn it, she's really exhausted me!"

The two chased after Xia Zhi for half an hour, gradually becoming exhausted, but the woman not far ahead showed no signs of stopping.

"Damn, I should have brought more people. Hurry up and chase her! I don't believe she can run all day. If all else fails..."

Yao Dashan glared at his companion with a sinister look. "If all else fails, we'll drive her to the other side. There are Burmese troops there; it's our territory. We'll see what she does then!"

His companion Liu Wen gave him a thumbs up, "Old Yao, you're amazing! This woman's in such good physical condition, she might just pull off a big heist!"

The two exchanged a smile, their eyes revealing greed.

Yao Dashan patted his shoulder and pointed to a side path, "You should go that way."

Yao Dashan took a breath and continued chasing. He didn't know if the woman was doing it on purpose, but she kept running along the edge of the road.

Xia Zhi looked at the two people chasing after her relentlessly and gradually became exhausted. It was unlikely that she could run back now.

She took out the adrenaline she had redeemed with her points and gave herself an injection. Her pale cheeks were covered in beads of sweat, and there were several noticeable needle marks on her arm.

She needs to find a way to deal with these two people; running away like this isn't a solution.

She surveyed the surrounding terrain and was about to head towards the pile of rubble when Liu Wen appeared there, panting heavily.

Liu Wen looked at Xia Zhi, whose face didn't look too good, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "You old hag, run! Keep running! Damn it, you can run so fast, I'll break your legs later."

Liu Wen's gaze fell on the syringe on the ground, and he immediately snorted coldly, "I knew this damn woman could run so fast, turns out she had something inside."

Liu Wen's face was contorted with rage as he pointed the object in his hand at her.

Xia Zhi's breath hitched, a fear spreading from the depths of her heart making her breathing quicken.

Xia Zhi, don't panic. You've seen all sorts of big scenes. It's just two people.
You can do it for sure.

After mentally preparing herself, Xia Zhi turned around and saw Yao Dashan flanking her from the other side, also pointing a weapon at her.

"Run, huh? You think you're so fast? If you keep running, believe me, I'll shoot you dead!" Yao Dashan gritted his teeth, glaring at her with murderous intent. Damn woman, he almost lost half his life running away.

Let's see how she runs now!
Xia Zhi grabbed the basket on her back, looked around, gripped the anesthetic in her other hand, then threw it at Liu Wen and forcefully smashed the basket against Yao Dashan.

The two, who had already let their guard down, never expected Xia Zhi to pull such a move.

Enraged, Yao Dashan slammed his fist on the basket that had hit his face, yelling, "Damn it, I'll blow your brains out!"

There was a "bang" sound.

Startled, nearby birds flew out, their calls rising and falling in waves.

Thank you all for your votes, I love you all!
