Read Novel I Want A Lifetime With You Chapter 553

Even though Pei Huan was currently afraid, she couldn't show her fear. Otherwise, it would make Song Zhe panic even more. Therefore, she shook her head and said, "Focus on driving, Song Zhe. You don't need to worry about me and Huo Ling. We'll take care of ourselves." Although she said that, her eyes were fixed on her phone.

She knew she couldn't panic and put more stress on Li Heng. Thus, she could only hold Bao tightly and comforted, "Don't be afraid, Bao. I'm here." Li Heng's eyes were turning reddish when he heard her voice over the phone. "Drive faster, Shaoqing!"

Su Shaoqing pressed down hard on the gas pedal and suddenly thought of something.

He hurriedly turned on his phone and called Fu Chengyan. "Chengyan, I haven't had the time to take care of Ling lately. If it's true that the enemy is targeting the Fu clan, then Ling is "

"I got it!" Fu Chengyan had actually hired people to protect Fu Ling all this while. However, when he heard Su Shaoqing say that, he immediately called Zhou Zheng and asked, "Who has been following Fu Ling lately?"

"It's Zhou Zhi, Mr. Fu!" Zhou Zheng replied. "Is there a problem, Mr. Fu?" "Tell Zhou Zhi to bring Ling to the Fu residence right now!" He paused before continuing, "Also, send more people to protect Bai at the hospital!"

"But, Mr. Fu, is it really okay to send her to the Fu residence?" After all, both the Fu clan and Fu Ling had a common understanding about Fu Ling's departure from the Fu residence previously.

Fu Chengyan stayed silent for a while before saying, "Tell Zhou Zhi to take her there. If the old man asked about it, tell him it's my order!"

Su Shaoqing was still worried after hanging up the phone. Just as he was about to give

Fu Ling a call, Li Heng grabbed the phone away from him. "Focus on driving!"

Su Shaoqing furrowed his eyebrows, but he had to obey Li Heng. After all, Pei Huan was in greater danger at the moment.

Once Li Heng locked on the target, he ordered, "Huan, turned on the speaker and let Song Zhe listen!"

Pei Huan immediately turned on the speaker, allowing Li Heng to speak to Song Zhe.

"When you reach the spot five hundred meters ahead, turn around and enter a narrow path. You need to get rid of the car on your right first."

"Understood, Mr. Li!" Upon receiving his order, Song Zhe sped up the car. "Ms. Huo, Madam, sit tight!"

His driving skills were pretty good. Even though the car had suffered a significant amount of damage, it was still able to swerve and get rid of the car on the right. "I got rid of the car, Mr. Li!"

"Good. Now, I need you to turn left and enter the tunnel. Get rid of the car behind you." Li Heng paused before asking, "Do you know how to use a gun, Huo Ling?"

"I do, Great Mr. Li!" Huo Ling quickly replied. Song Zhe understood that and threw the gun he pulled out from his waistbelt to her. "Do you know how to use this one, Ms.

Huo?"

"I do!" Even though she came from a family of doctors, there were still some other skills she needed to learn. After all, she was a very important person. Ever since she was a child, she was required to learn different self-defense skills to protect herself. Therefore, it was natural that she was good with guns.

Huo Ling was holding the gun in her hand when Li Heng said, "Take out one of the cars inside the tunnel! You don't need to shoot the people. Just hitting the tire will be enough!"

"Got it!" Just as Song Zhe made the swift turn, she took the opportunity and crawled to the passenger seat.

"Keep Bao safe, Goddess!" As she spoke, she wound down the car window. When Song Zhe drove the car into the tunnel, Huo Ling observed one of the pursuers' cars. When they arrived at the middle section of the tunnel, she took her aim and fired two rounds at the tire.

When Song Zhe drove the car out of the tunnel, he noticed that they had gotten rid of the car. He couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. However, the danger wasn't over

yet. A car suddenly appeared in front of him, causing him to panic and turn the steering wheel to the side. The car smashed into the guardrail at the side of the road.

A loud bang was heard from the car due to the impact. He quickly asked, "Are you all right, Madam?"

"I'm fine!" Pei Huan could feel herself getting hit pretty hard since the pain was making her wince. Still, she gritted her teeth and comforted, "I'm here, Bao."

Bao was very calm throughout the whole journey. It wasn't that he was unafraid; it was just that he didn't want Pei Huan to worry.

Song Zhe reversed the car and drove forward again. The cars behind them were still chasing after them relentlessly. Eventually, his car was surrounded by the pursuers.

Song Zhe's face turned pale. "Stay in the car, Madam. I" Before he could finish, a gunshot was heard. He immediately pushed everyone down and protected them with his body.

Thankfully, Li Heng and Pei Jingxiu had made it in time. When the former saw that Song

Zhe's car was surrounded, he pulled out his gun and fired. He was quick and accurate. Before the pursuers realized what was going on, a few of them were already dead with a bullet in their heads. The others in the cars exited their vehicles and prepared to head straight toward Pei Huan.

Pei Jingxiu and Ning Xi hurriedly got out of the car and began an all-out gunfight with the pursuers.

There were a lot of people on the opposing side. Even though Li Heng's side consisted of a large number of men, it still wasn't easy to take the enemies all out.

It was clear that the enemies came prepared. Their target was clear. They were there to capture the people in Song Zhe's car.

Just as the enemies were keeping Li Heng and Pei Jingxiu busy, two of them went over to where Pei Huan was and pointed a gun at her head. However, this time around, they did not capture Pei Huan. Instead, they were targeting Huo Ling.

Huo Ling found the right opportunity, aimed her gun at the guy's head, and pulled the trigger. A hole was formed in between the guy's eyebrows before he dropped dead to the ground.

She was pretty skillful in using a gun. With Song Zhe's support, she managed to take down a few men in black clothing.

The scene currently playing out on the empty road was thrilling and horrifying. The gunfight didn't last very long. After Pei Jingxiu and Li Heng took down the enemies one after another, Li Heng approached Pei Huan and saw that Bao was still in her embrace. At that moment, Pei Huan was trembling violently, but she was still holding her child in a really safe position.

"Huan!" He carried her out of the car and gently patted her back. "It's over, Huan!"

Pei Huan lifted her head and stared at him. "Heng!"

"Good girl!" He gazed at her with a gentle look.

Huo Ling finished off the rest of the enemies and hurried toward the couple. "You're finally here, Great Mr. Li!"

He nodded and was really impressed by her. After what had happened, he changed his opinion of her. "Sorry for this frightening experience today, Ms. Huo."

"Li Heng, you bring them back first." Pei Jingxiu swept his gaze across his surroundings. "I'll stay back and take care of this mess. Go, now."

Li Heng nodded. "All right!"

Li Heng left with Pei Huan, Bao, and Huo Ling first. Pei Jingxiu, Su Shaoqing, and the others remained behind.

Pei Jingxiu checked the surrounding surveillance cameras before dialing Liang Lin's number. "Did you erase the footage?"

"I did, Mr. Pei!" Liang Lin was pretty quick. The footage taken by the surveillance cameras was already wiped a few minutes ago. "I've already retrieved everything involving the chase and the gunfight." After hearing that, Pei Jingxiu hummed in response. "Ling, check and see if there is anyone still alive," he instructed.

"No, Mr. Pei!"

He nodded. "Good. Let's go!"

"Hey, Mr. Pei!" Su Shaoqing pointed at the bodies on the ground. "Don't tell me you're going to leave this mess unattended? Do you know how chaotic Jiang City will be when the words get out tomorrow?" "That's the plan." Pei Jingxiu sneered, "I want to see how far these b*stards will go. Let's move!"

Su Shaoqing pouted. "Fine!" After he got in the car, he didn't forget to give Fu Ling a call.

At the moment, Fu Ling had just gotten off work due to overtime. An unfamiliar man promptly stopped her path. "My name is Zhou Zhi, Ms. Fu!”

Fu Ling was stunned for a moment and stared at him cautiously. "I don't know you!" "I'm one of Mr. Fu's men, Ms. Fu. Zhou Zheng is my older brother!" As he spoke, Zhou Zhi pulled out his ID card. "Mr. Fu has asked me to bring you back, Ms. Fu!" "Back?" She stared at him perplexedly. "Back where? Mr. Zhou, I'm heading to the hospital right now."

Even though he claimed to be one of Fu Chengyan's men, she didn't know him, so she didn't plan to follow him. Zhou Zhi had no choice but to call Fu Chengyan. "Yes, Mr. Fu. She's currently here with me, but she's unwilling to leave with me!"

Then, he handed the phone to her. "Ms. Fu, Mr. Fu would like to speak to you."

She suspiciously grabbed the phone and heard Fu Chengyan's voice coming from the other end of the line. "Follow Zhou Zhi back to the Fu residence first, Ling."

Her eyebrows immediately furrowed in disdain when she heard that. "No need. I'm currently living in a pretty good place right now. You don't need to worry about me." "Ling, listen to me." Fu Chengyan pinched his glabella. "This is not the time for you to be

willful."

"What's wrong?" She could tell that there was a tinge of exhaustion in his voice. "Why must I return to the Fu residence? I want to visit Bai at the hospital!"

Fu Chengyan went silent for a while before saying, "Fine, then let Zhou Zhi take you to the hospital."

"No need." She rejected his offer without a second thought.

"Listen to me. If you don't allow Zhou Zhi to send you to the hospital, then you're going back to the Fu residence!" His voice sounded resolute. She had no choice but to agree. "Fine." She ended the call and returned the phone to Zhou Zhi. "Please send me to the hospital right now, Mr. Zhou!"

Zhou Zhi nodded. "Please follow me to the car, Ms. Fu!"

Because there had been a gunfight on the road to the hospital, Zhou Zhi saw police cars surrounding the place where the gunfight had taken place when he was driving her to her location. There were a lot of police and onlookers gathering around the scene.

Since the gunfight had happened at night, and it was on a highway, even if someone knew a gunfight had transpired, no one would care. Even if they cared, no one could make out the culprits' faces. That was why the police were setting up roadblocks to investigate the incident.

Because of that, Fu Ling and Zhou Zhi had to be questioned by the police for a while before they were allowed to leave. She thought that it was odd. It wasn't until the car was far away before she looked away and commented, "I wonder how the gunfight happened."

Zhou Zhi's expression froze when he heard that. He merely smiled and answered, "No idea. It's not safe to be out at night nowadays."

She stayed silent and lowered her head. No one could tell what was on her mind.

Right then, her phone rang. It was from Su Shaoqing. She hung up on him without a second thought, but he kept calling. Her phone rang again and again. After a while, Zhou Zhi's phone rang. "Yes, Mr. Su. Ms. Fu's currently in my car. We're about to arrive at the hospital."
