853: Chapter 852: Giving You a Piece of Advice
“Was it really a technical mistake?!”
Seeing Bamboo Pole’s righteous and confident deanor, Hao Jian’s face shifted between light and shadow.
He lacked enough evidence to prove his suspicions.
If he had indeed wronged Bamboo Pole, it wouldn’t be good news for him either.
At the very least, it would deal a blow to his reputation.
“Yes!
Yes!
It really was a technical mistake!”
Noticing the decrease in Hao Jian’s killing intent, Bamboo Pole felt a surge of joy in his heart.
Without changing his expression, he quickly responded.
Although he was unclear about how Hao Jian had managed to avoid the bomb’s explosion, the priority was to stabilize Hao Jian for the ti being.
As long as his cover wasn’t blown, he could guide the rcenary Alliance mbers to co.
Once they caught up, they would kill Hao Jian and capture the doctor.
The orders Bamboo Pole received in his ho country were to deal with Hao Jian, if possible…
“Then I will tentatively believe you.
But if I find you making similar mistakes again, I, Hao Jian, will definitely not show rcy!”
After pondering, Hao Jian decided to let this guy off for now.
After all, if he killed Bamboo Pole without any evidence, it would inevitably unsettle the Divine Tiger mbers.
However, this didn’t an Hao Jian trusted him; his instincts told him this guy was hiding sothing…
But Hao Jian didn’t point it out, since he had already said he would tentatively trust him, so he would do just that.
“Leader.”
Upon seeing Hao Jian turn around, Lion glanced at Bamboo Pole, who lay on the ground gasping for air, and then at Hao Jian, hesitating before speaking.
“It’s nothing.”
Hao Jian shook his head, with no intention of explaining anything to Lion.
He walked over to his car, patted Chi Ruo on the shoulder, and called out, “Hey, wake up!”
Hao Jian didn’t put much force into it, rely enough to knock her unconscious.
Considering they had left the rcenary Alliance base and taken a long detour to avoid surveillance caras that could track them back to the base, she should be about to wake up.
“Huh?
Is it morning?”
Chi Ruo sleepily opened her eyes to find brightness before her.
She stretched lazily and uttered the words that imdiately made Hao Jian’s face fall.
How on earth did this woman co up with sothing that caught the attention of both the nation and the rcenary Alliance?!
How could she be so oblivious?!
Watching Chi Ruo’s deanor, Hao Jian felt rather helpless.
He had originally wanted to wake her up to argue about how she almost got him caught back at the base, but seeing her like this, Hao Jian no longer pursued the matter…
Because he realized that even if he did pursue it, it would be of no use whatsoever!
“Why am I here?
You…
you didn’t go to rescue them!
And you knocked
out?”
In the next mont, Chi Ruo’s eyes widened, fury gradually filling them, as she shouted at Hao Jian, “Why didn’t you save them?!”
“You think I didn’t want to?!
Did you even look at the situation at that ti?!
I almost got killed because of you.
If it weren’t for that old man’s orders to bring you back safely to the nation, I couldn’t care less about you!”
Faced with Chi Ruo’s unfair accusations, Hao Jian couldn’t hold back his ire, rolling his eyes and retorting irritably, “Do you think the rcenary Alliance guys are easygoing?!
If it weren’t for my quick thinking, I would be dead by now, and you would have been taken by them to endlessly continue with your damned research!”
If it weren’t because Chi Ruo was a woman, Hao Jian might have cursed even more viciously.
But Chi Ruo didn’t take in Hao Jian’s words and continued to yell at him, saying, “Even if I die, that’s my own business!
It’s none of your concern, you cold-blooded animal!”
“I don’t care about your reasons!
All I know is you didn’t go to save them!
Don’t talk to
about how tough those rcenary Alliance people are!
I won’t listen!”
“You…”
Hao Jian truly didn’t expect to encounter such an extrely bizarre woman, and in anger, he laughed mockingly, “I can’t be bothered to argue with you!”
“Hmph!”
With a cold snort, Hao Jian directly opened the car door and got in, no longer caring about Chi Ruo’s mood.
Although he was sowhat angry with the unreasonable woman, the mission from that old guy at the Ministry of Defense dictated that he had to bring her back.
“As a woman, can’t you be a bit more rational?!”
Hao Jian couldn’t help but make this remark, but all it elicited was a furious scolding from Chi Ruo.
“I’ve been completely rational!
You actually didn’t save those people!
They are all my research colleagues!
They are my most important friends, and now I’m the only one alive!
How am I supposed to face their families!”
Upon hearing this, Hao Jian’s heart also stirred slightly, and he imdiately sighed inwardly.
If he could have saved them, he would have done so long ago; after all, they were his fellow countryn.
But at that ti, he truly had no ans…
“You bastard, cold-blooded animal!”
“You need to calm down!”
Hao Jian gestured with his hand, and then promptly pressed on several spots on Chi Ruo’s shoulder, sealing her mute acupoint.
If he didn’t do this, this woman would never stop.
If it wasn’t for the lack of trust, Hao Jian probably would have left this woman to be watched by soone else by now.
Because of Bamboo Pole, Hao Jian still did not trust Divine Tiger.
This guy almost blew him up and had so other unusual behaviors.
If that was the case, it’s not beyond reason to suspect he might have covetous intentions toward Chi Ruo; Hao Jian couldn’t afford to let Chi Ruo out of his sight.
In case she was hard by such a person, how would Hao Jian explain upon his return to the country?!
“Mmm mmm mmm…”
Chi Ruo, whose mute acupoint was sealed by Hao Jian, did not know what he did to make her unable to speak, so she was filled with fear.
She opened her mouth trying to speak, but couldn’t make any sound.
She could only widen her eyes and stare fiercely at Hao Jian, her beautiful eyes filled with anger.
“You better just sit quietly in the car, otherwise you won’t even know how you die later.
You’re preoccupied with others when you should be concerned about yourself.”
Hao Jian shook his head helplessly.
If it wasn’t for this woman being so annoying, he wouldn’t want to do this.
But that’s alright, now he must prepare to face the pursuit of the rcenary Alliance.
“Lion, co here.”
Hao Jian called over to Lion, who was not far away.
Seeing Hao Jian beckoning him, Lion put down his work and ran over quickly.
Arriving before Hao Jian, Lion gave a military salute.
“Leader!
Is there sothing you need?!”
Hao Jian nodded and then pointed to Lion’s van, speaking in a grave tone, “Your van will only have you, Ling Hai, and Ling He in it later.
Make absolutely sure not to let Bamboo Pole into your vehicle, otherwise, I can’t guarantee your safety…”
Hearing this, Lion beca visibly puzzled and hesitated before speaking, “Leader, didn’t Bamboo Pole say it was just a technical error?
Why are you still suspicious?”
“A technical error?
You are all mbers of Divine Tiger, would you make such low-level mistakes?” Hao Jian scoffed coldly.
For people like them who lick blood off knife-edges, mistakes are not tolerated, let alone serious ones like this.
“But…”
“Don’t worry about it, just listen to , and you won’t be wrong.”
Seeing Lion still wanting to speak, Hao Jian waved his hand and walked toward his car.
He had said all he intended to; whether Lion trusted his words was not his concern.
After all, the only person he had to protect was Chi Ruo; the lives of others didn’t weigh as much as hers.
Even if Lion’s attitude towards him changed, that didn’t an much.
Hao Jian did not appreciate an underling who had doubts about him.
If this ti Lion did well and safely returned ho, Hao Jian wouldn’t mind promoting this guy.
After all, his capabilities were rare.
Although this guy was part of Divine Tiger, not long after joining, he went out on a mission with Ling Hai and Ling He, so relatively speaking, his sentint towards Divine Tiger wasn’t all that deep.
………………………………………
The group packed up quickly; within six minutes after Hao Jian gave Lion a warning, they were ready.
Three SUVs were leading the way, with two vans carrying important tools in the middle, followed by Lion’s business van and Hao Jian’s rcedes sports car at the rear.
In the end, Lion heeded Hao Jian’s advice and did not let Bamboo Pole get into his van, instead having him go with the people in the van.
As for Hao Jian, even if Bamboo Pole had a hundred tis the courage, he wouldn’t dare approach, not wanting to reveal any flaws for Hao Jian to discover.
Besides, Hao Jian’s sports car only had two seats, one of which was already taken by Chi Ruo.
How could there be room for him?
“Wuu wuu wuu…”
Right after Hao Jian’s group had just left the base, over a hundred vehicles with sirens appeared at the forrly occupied gates of their base…
These vehicles were of various makes and models, all of them, but they all had one thing in common – they were all SUVs…
“It seems they haven’t left long ago…”
Will descended from a vehicle, looked at the building in front of him with its independent yard, pondered for a mont, then waved his big hand, and a subordinate ran over quickly.
“Take so people and search this place, see if 34 has left us any clues!”
Will didn’t believe that the liaison officer would leave them without any signal.
That female doctor was very important to the rcenary Alliance, and if they couldn’t bring her back, even Will’s status in the rcenary Alliance would be futile, and he would be discarded…
