Chapter 1526: Chapter 1545: Finally Found
Emil: “…” Dad, there’s a woman scarier than the Tyrant!
“I think you’d be better off coming back to my country with ! I can guarantee your safety.”
“No way.” Emil made an adorably fierce expression, full of disdain as he said, “You want to trick ? Try in the next life! I’m the smartest little prince of the Kannaya Royal Family.”
“Not good!” Nan Fei’s expression suddenly changed drastically. She abruptly stood up from the flat rock and bent down, pressing her ear tightly to the ground to listen intently.
Emil, being a clever little one, reacted faster than anyone else and imdiately hid behind Nan Fei.
Xing Yu, who had just set up the tent, also switched to alert mode. “Nan Fei, what’s wrong?” He had co to trust Nan Fei’s extraordinary hearing.
“There’s the sound of cars heading in our direction.”
“Quick, get in the car!”
“It’s too late!” Nan Fei pressed both palms firmly to the ground. The more she listened, the worse her expression beca. “The cars are moving too fast, and there are four of them—all top-performance Humrs. Our pickup can’t outrun them.” Four vehicles—it was enough to block off every direction they could possibly escape to.
“Calculating their current distance and speed, even if we push our car to its maximum, they’ll catch up with us in less than half an hour.”
Xing Yu quickly made a decision. “Take this little brat and leave first. I’ll distract them.”
Nan Fei’s small, fair ears twitched slightly as she continued to focus on listening. This ti she wasn’t hasty, nor did she rush to make an ergency decision. She devoted her full attention to discerning the sounds.
Countless intertwined sounds surged like waves into her ears, and she ticulously distinguished them thread by thread.
Xing Yu and Emil were both growing anxious, eager to urge her but afraid to pressure her.
Suddenly, Nan Fei’s face turned pale as she collapsed to the ground. A fine sheen of sweat was already on her forehead, and her breathing grew heavier.
“Nan Fei, what’s wrong?” Xing Yu quickly stepped forward to support her, helping her sit back on the rock.
Nan Fei felt utterly exhausted, teetering on the edge of fainting, but she gritted her teeth and persevered. A faint, weak smile appeared on her face. “Don’t worry! It’s Huo Beijiang’s people coming—leading them should be Lin Yizhong.”
She had heard familiar Mandarin, faintly carrying the tone of a command she had once heard before.
If her guess was correct, it must be Lin Yizhong.
Xing Yu exhaled in relief, his tall and imposing figure now looking a bit forlorn.
“That’s good,” he said softly. “When they arrive, I’ll go find Gongxi Yunqi.”
“You don’t need to. They must have found Gongxi Yunqi before coming.” Nan Fei’s expression grew colder, and she gritted her teeth with determination as she said fiercely, “They wouldn’t dare leave Gongxi Yunqi behind. If they do, then Huo Beijiang and I would truly be finished for good.”
In a surge of emotion, Xing Yu blurted out, “You’re still planning to be with him? Didn’t you two divorce?” He regretted his words imdiately, fumbling awkwardly as he apologized. “Sorry! I shouldn’t have said sothing to upset you.”
Nan Fei heard his words, and all emotion drained from her face, replaced by an expression of wistful loss. She instinctively touched her eyes, revealing a trace of a bitter smile.
“You’re right.” As for what she agreed with, she didn’t say—but the aning was crystal clear.
Lin Yizhong moved quickly. Four Humrs roared across the desert, their speed kicking up clouds of flying sand that filled the air. The convoy operated with extre precision—fast and efficient. When they finally reached Nan Fei and the others, the four vehicles simultaneously skidded to a halt in perfect alignnt.
The doors of all four vehicles opened simultaneously. From the lead car, Lin Yizhong practically rolled out. The mont he caught sight of Nan Fei calmly sitting on the rock, he felt like he had finally co back to life.
