A Warm Wedding and A New Bride of Young Master Lu

Chapter 476 Xu Youning Escaped (2)

“Ah Guang, you are out of your mind!” Jie shouted, “You’re betraying Seventh Brother if you cooperate with her like that!”

“Betrayal is better than regret!” Ah Guang’s attitude was tougher than ever, “Put down the gun and go back to the car!”

Xu Youning observed the situation. She moved the gun slowly away from Ah Guang’s head and pointed at Jason. With a sound, a bullet ran through the silencer and shot out with sparkles. It rushed out by Jason’s ear.

And Jason who was known for his accurate aiming barely saw Xu Youning’s movement, not to mention how Xu Youning aimed in such a dark condition.

Xu Youning’s voice was cold, “Do as Ah Guang told you. Or else, the bullet will do more than pass by your ears.

“Ah Guang!” Jie tightly held the gun in his hand and tried to persuade Ah Guang into changing his mind.

Ah Guang interrupted Jie immediately, “I’ve thought it through and I know what I’m doing now. Go back to the car and wait for me.”

“What about the consequences? Have you thought about that?” Jie asked.

Ah Guang answered firmly and clearly, “Of course.”

Jie finally stopped talking. He signaled Jason to follow him into the car. Right at the moment they closed the door, Ah Guang locked the car and turned on the signal jammer inside the car.

They would be unable to reach Mu Sijue unless they crashed the window and ran out.

Xu Youning finally asked Ah Guang, “Why did you help me? We could act a scene.”

According to Xu Youning’s plan, she should be the one to defeat Jason and Jie. Then she could escape from Ah Guang’s control. Thus, Ah Guang could be out of suspicion. Even if Mu Sijue wanted to blame someone for her escape, Ah Guang wouldn’t be the one.

But Ah Guang allowed her to capture him in front of Jie. Then her escape would all be Ah Guang’s fault.

“You wouldn’t be able to defeat Jie and Jason at the same time. Besides, they would have found a chance to get in touch with Seventh Brother,” Ah Guang said, “You can run away successful only if I help you.”

“Have you thought that...”

Xu Youning was interrupted by Ah Guang before she could finish talking. Ah Guang was extremely bright over this. “I have.” He stopped for a minute and then continued, “In fact, I was just making a bet.”

“On what?” Xu Youning couldn’t understand Ah Guang’s meaning at the moment.

Ah Guang shook his head, “I’ll find some time to tell you later. You should leave now. It’s not difficult for them to crack a signal jammer.”

Xu Youning took a look a Jason who was crazily patting on the door and nodded. Then she followed Ah Guang and their figures rapidly disappear in the darkness.

Ah Guang led Xu Youning around and soon they arrived at the other road on the hill. By the side of the road stood a useful SUV.

It was apparent that Xu Youning didn’t expect Ah Guang to even prepare a car for her. She thought for a second and said, “Thank you.”

“There’s no need. In fact, I’m the one who should say thanks.” Ah Guang pulled out a smile. “Seventh Brother made you investigate me on purpose. If you had pulled me into trouble at that moment, Seventh Brother would definitely have sent me to a deserted land, telling you that I had been killed. But you didn’t. You were really kind to me. It’s not a big deal for me to do such a little favor for you.”

Xu Youning shook her head. “Ah Guang, you think I didn’t get you into trouble because of kindness? Why don’t you think—I shouldn’t anyways.”

“I don’t care. I just know that you didn’t.” Ah Guang gave the car keys to Xu Youning, “There’s a backpack in the car. Your fake ID is inside, as well as cash and some bullets. That’s all I can do for you.”

“It’s enough.” Xu Youning took over the keys. “Ah Guang, I owe you one. I’ll repay you by the time I finish my work.”

Ah Guang smiled and realized something abnormal. He caught Xu Youning’s hand. “What’s the deal? What do you mean about work?”

Xu Youning knew she had said something she shouldn’t. There was something in her eyes but she quickly covered it with a smile. “Of course I mean avenging my grandma. What I mean is that I wouldn’t hurt you when I come back for Mu Sijue.”

Ah Guang’s eyes became very deep. “Sister Youning, in fact...”

“I should go.” Xu Youning sensed what Ah Guang was going to say and quickly interrupted him, “Goodbye.”

Being interrupted like this and recalling Mu Sijue’s words, Ah Guang didn’t mention the truth. He just nodded. “Bye.”

Xu Youning gave Ah Guang a bright smile and stepped backwards. Then she opened the door of the car and got on the driver’s seat. At last, she started the car and drove downhill.

The whole process went smoothly without a second of hesitation.

Once she left, she might not return ever again. She was afraid she would reveal something once she stopped.

In fact, she knew. She knew everything.

She knew Mu Sijue was not the real murderer of her grandma. She knew the so-called truth the police had was fake.

She also knew whom she should find to get her revenge.

Mu Sijue once asked her why she believed he was the murderer of her grandma and why she thought he would do such a horrible thing to an old woman.

She firmly told Mu Sijue that he was that kind of person, so he had to be the murderer without asking him why.

It was because she knew better than anyone else that Mu Sijue wasn’t like that, and he would definitely not hurt an innocent old woman.

From the very beginning, she didn’t believe the murderer was Mu Sijue.

For her, the best choice would have been to stay and become Mu Sijue’s follower. Then she could help him against Kang Ruicheng.

But, even if Mu Sijue was willing to keep her, she didn’t know how to face Su Jianan and Su Yicheng. Besides, according to the current circumstances, it would be the most beneficial if she went back to Kang Ruicheng.

As for the risks of going back with him, she didn’t care anymore. Life had lost its meaning since the moment her grandma had left.

However, although she thought that way, her heart still ached when she was about to leave.

She didn’t want to admit the fact that she didn’t want to leave Mu Sijue.

The true reason why she was going back to Kang Ruicheng’s side would be discovered someday. But there was no Ah Guang next to Kang Ruicheng who would take risks for her. It would be impossible for her to escape by then.

If she stayed with Mu Sijue, he would leave her at a dead end. If she went back to Kang Ruicheng, death would also be in front of her.

She could only tell herself that there was death in everyone’s lives. An early death might be a relief.

Thinking about it, Xu Youning wiped her watery eyes. She stepped on the accelerator and sped up to leave.

Soon, the last light of the car disappeared from Ah Guang’s sight.

Ah Guang was relieved. He turned around to go back, but ended stumbling with some root. Then he realized he had given the night goggles to Xu Youning. He mentally cursed, then turned on his phone’s flashlight and made his way back.

When he returned, Jie and Jason had just cracked the lock and gotten out of the car. They shot him annoyed glares, then they took out their phones.

“It’s no use trying to call Seventh Brother now,” Ah Guang said, “Xu Youning is gone. Oh, and she has a car.”

“You prepared a car for her?” Jie was upset as he put down the phone. “Ah Guang, aren’t you afraid that Seventh Brother may punish you?”

“Of course I’m afraid.” Ah Guang shrugged and smiled. “But, it’s difficult to say whether Seventh Brother will punish me or not.”

“...” Both Jason and Jie thought Ah Guang was dreaming—the three of them couldn’t finish the task of killing someone. How could Seventh Brother go easy on them?

“Just wait and see.” Ah Guang got in the car and kicked Jason who was on the driver’s seat, “Let’s go. Take me to the old house.”

Jason started the car and said, “Are you going to turn your life in? You should run away with Xu Youning, or Seventh Brother will send you to the frontier of Vietnam.”

“I wish he sends me to a deserted land.” Ah Guang yawned. “Then I will have a long holiday.”

“...” Jie and Jason were completely speechless.

In a short while, they reached the old house of the Mu family. Ah Guang got out and turned around to say to the two men in the car, “You can go back now.”

“We shouldn’t.” Jie reached poked his head out and said to Ah Guang, “We can ask Seventh Brother to forgive you if he wants to kill you.”

Ah Guang: “...Fuck off!”

He directly went into the house and saw Aunt Zhou cleaning some antiques in the living room. He greeted to Aunt Zhou and asked, “Where is Seventh Brother?”

Aunt Zhou pointed at the second floor, “He’s in the room. He slept all day woke up until dusk. Then he said he was hungry and told me to cook something for him. But he didn’t come down until the noodles I made for him turned cold.”

Ah Guang asked confused, “Why don’t you go and ask him?”

Aunt Zhou shook her head smilingly, “I don’t dare to call him at the moment. Well, the affair he told you to deal with... how did it go?”

“Xu Youning escaped.” After a pause, Ah Guang continued, “I released her.”

Aunt Zhou thought about it. “That’s good. Xu Youning is still alive. So it’s not too late if Xiao Qi regrets.”

“Aunt Zhou, I did the right thing, right?” Ah Guang smiled. “Help me stop Seventh Brother if he wants to beat me to death.”

Then, Ah Guang went to the second floor.

When he was about to get to Mu Sijue’s door, Ah Guang’s steps slowed down.

The old house of the Mu family was like the safety harbor for Mu Sijue. Every time he ran into something, he liked to go home and sleep.

But he had never locked himself in the house for a whole day.

Maybe this time he was really sad.

After standing by the door for quite a while, Ah Guang finally knocked but there was no sound inside. So he knocked again.

After quite a while, he finally heard Mu Sijue’s voice. “Aunt Zhou, I’m not hungry.”

His voice was very low and husky. Ah Guang felt sad after hearing his voice.

“Seventh Brother, it’s me,” Ah Guang said, “I’m back.”

“...”

This time, Mu Sijue kept quiet for a long time as if he had not heard him.

Ah Guang imagined—maybe Mu Sijue was afraid to hear the result?

If so, he had made the right guess.

While thinking, Ah Guang pushed the door open and what he saw was a complete darkness. After quite a while, his eyes were accustomed and he saw Mu Sijue standing by the room’s window...
