Chapter 596: Chapter 596: Want to Separate the Two of Them

Instead of enjoying the scenery like now, she also worried about the potential dangers that might occur.

Rong Shaoze stopped walking, his tall frame casting a long shadow under the streetlight.

"Later we can come here for a vacation, and you can play as long as you want," he said.

"Okay, it’s a deal! You have to bring me here in the future," she responded.

"Shall we pinky swear like our son does?" Rong Shaoze asked with a raised eyebrow and a smile, extending his pinky.

Lin Xinlan curved her lips into a smile, hooked his pinky with hers, and they pulled slightly before pressing their thumbs together as a promise.

"You mentioned Xiaocong, and now I suddenly miss him so much." Lin Xinlan said somewhat wistfully. It had been a long time since she had seen her son, and she had no idea how he was doing.

Noticing her mood, he hugged her and comforted her, "He’s doing well. With Meiying protecting him, he won’t be in any danger. You’ll see him once we leave Rome tomorrow."

"I really wish tomorrow would come sooner."

"But I still want to take a romantic stroll with you on the streets of Rome. Opportunities to enjoy ourselves amidst hardship are rare."

Lin Xinlan chuckled, nodding in agreement, "True, there are few people who, while being hunted down, still have the mood to appreciate the night scenery. This experience is indeed rare, we should cherish it."

The man laughed too. Even though he had changed his appearance, his smile was still charming and dazzling.

"Then let’s continue, we can’t waste any time."

"Mhm!"

...

They wandered the streets till late at night, finally deciding to return to their apartment.

It was too late, and the quiet streets were empty of pedestrians, illuminated only by streetlights.

But with Rong Shaoze by her side, Lin Xinlan didn’t feel afraid.

Suddenly, a red dot swept across Rong Shaoze’s face and settled on Lin Xinlan’s forehead.

Rong Shaoze’s expression turned fierce as he sharply pushed Lin Xinlan away. At the same time, a gunshot sounded, and the bullet hit right in between where they had been standing.

Lin Xinlan fell to the ground and heard another gunshot, completely dumbfounded.

She turned her head and immediately locked eyes with Rong Shaoze.

He tried to run over and grab her hand, but suddenly many bullets flew between them, preventing Rong Shaoze from moving forward and forcing him to retreat.

"Xinlan!" he yelled, his eyes staring intensely at her, worried that she might be hurt.

But after a few seconds, he figured out the attackers’ intentions.

They were only trying to separate the two of them and did not intend to harm Lin Xinlan.

However, they did intend to harm him.

Relying on instinct, Rong Shaoze continuously dodged the dense rain of bullets, a sight that terrified Lin Xinlan.

She got up, wanting to rush over, but as soon as she moved, bullets hit the ground in front of her, forcing her to scream and back off.

Rong Shaoze pulled out his handgun and had already killed several shooters.

But there were too many attackers, and they were hiding in the shadows; he was unable to deal with them all.

Lin Xinlan also realized their goal and yelled at him, "Rong Shaoze, don’t worry about me, just run!"

The man ignored her, continuing to fire his gun while trying to get closer to her.

Not far away, a sniper rifle aimed at his right arm, and with a loud shot, the bullet struck his arm. He grunted and, twisting his body, took cover behind a utility pole.

"Rong Shaoze!" Lin Xinlan was so frightened that her face went pale, and her heart almost broke.

"Please go, I’m begging you, just go!"

With his right hand injured, Rong Shaoze started shooting with his left hand.

His left hand was just as dexterous as his right.
