Chapter 353: Chapter 354 These Things Don’t Concern You

Given Qiao Liang’s current condition, it was impossible for him to jump from the third floor. Chu Xinqing had already observed that there were no more than ten guards here, and escaping with him should be feasible.

Upon hearing footsteps, the guards in the hallway ran over as well.

"What’s going on?"

Bang!

Knowing their cover was blown, Gan Yuan didn’t bother to hide any longer. She raised her hand, shot the approaching guard in the arm, and with Qiao Liang in tow, dashed up the stairs. Two more henchmen who rushed from downstairs were swiftly kicked aside by her, one each with her powerful legs.

The one who came out from the second floor got a bullet in his shoulder.

...

Gan Yuan made her way through the guards as if in an uninhabited territory, and in less than twenty minutes, she had managed to get Qiao Liang out the front door from the third floor.

Behind them, the guards moaned in pain.

After helping Qiao Liang to the off-road vehicle parked in the courtyard, she opened the door, stuffed him into the back seat, and swiftly returned to the driver’s seat. She started the car and burst through the manor’s gates.

Qiao Liang, disregarding his pain, clutched the handle and watched her drive, his mind filled with questions, "Littleyuan, you..."

Gan Yuan cut him off, "Do you have friends here you can trust?"

Qiao Liang knew now was not the time for questions and quickly responded, "Xinqing is here!"

Of course, he had other contacts, but under the circumstances, he didn’t plan to let his father know.

"Call her!" Gan Yuan tossed a cell phone to him while glancing at the car’s built-in map, "Tell her to wait for us on XX Street."

Qiao Liang caught the phone and dialed Chu Xinqing’s number.

"Xinqing, it’s Qiao Liang... I’m okay... Don’t ask too much, just come to XX Street right now... Alright..." At the end, he didn’t forget to remind her, "Be careful on the way."

Gan Yuan turned the vehicle onto the highway back to the city and glanced at his pale face in the rear-view mirror.

"How are you doing?"

"I’m fine."

Qiao Liang tried to offer a comforting smile, but just then the car jolted, aggravating his wound. He grimaced in pain, and the smile contorted.

Seeing his pain-stricken expression, a wave of guilt washed over Gan Yuan.

"I’m sorry."

"It’s not your fault... Actually, it’s not at all... Yikes—"

He had intended to say it didn’t hurt, but the pain in his wound made him gasp sharply.

The bullet was still in his leg; even the slightest movement sent spasms of agony through him. How could he bear it?

Gan Yuan said nothing more and just gently pressed the brakes, slightly slowing down the car.

Fortunately, the journey wasn’t too long, and soon they arrived at the location they’d arranged with Chu Xinqing.

After parking the car next to a drugstore, Gan Yuan hurried out. She returned moments later with a first-aid kit in her hands.

Opening the back door of the car, she quickly took out an anti-inflammatory, grasped his elbow, and injected it into his upper arm.

"I’ll take care of your wound first. When Miss Chu arrives, leave immediately. Don’t go to a hospital; change cities before seeking medical help," she instructed.

Then, she took a syringe, this time inserting it directly into his injured calf.

Qiao Liang broke out in a cold sweat from the pain but didn’t want to show it in front of her, so he just bit down hard on his teeth.

"Who exactly is Moses?"

"These matters don’t concern you, don’t ask too much," Gan Yuan took out an empty syringe glancing up into his eyes, "Promise me, don’t call the police!"

Gan Yuan knew Moses’ character well—he wouldn’t let the other party catch even a hint of leverage. Even if Qiao Liang called the police, it was unlikely to harm Moses. Instead, it might provoke him into even more frenzied retaliation. At that point, Qiao Liang’s troubles would be much more severe than just a gunshot wound.
