Chapter 1346 Comradeship 3

Bare ground greeted their sight, and straight ahead, they could see a lump of something dark on the side like some sort of haystack?

Qi Lei squinted to look, and in an instant, his eyes suddenly lit up while a smile spread across his pale face!

“This is the corn stalk haystack that villages gather. That means someone must have farmed on this land, so there must be households nearby!” Ah Mo thought that Qi Lei did not understand, so he explained.

Upon hearing that, Qi Lei’s eyes flashed with joy. He quickly said, “Yes! There must be households nearby! What are we waiting for then? It should be this road ahead. Let’s go quickly!”

Ah Mo responded, and quickened his steps...

Indeed, about two kilometers ahead, they saw more than ten low-rise wooden houses that were far and few in between...

“There are households! Ah Mo, look!” Qi Lei was relieved as he pointed at the village ahead.

“Let’s go then! We’ll see if there’s a doctor to treat the two of you first.”

“Let’s go!”

...

“What did you say? They escaped? Eight people couldn’t even watch over three cold and hungry people?”

Inside the luxurious hotel, Doris listened to the black-clothed man beside Glenn report to her while her face was gathered with a reckless layer of stormy expression as she coldly looked at the man before him.

“Sorry, Miss, the rain was too heavy. In fact, they set things on fire and tied our people up, so we could only save our people first, and based on the whole situation, they had planned this way in advanced. They remembered the courtyard’s layout very well, andthey...”

“Enough! I don’t want to hear any more excuses. I’m just asking you where they are right now. Where are Mu Lingmo and Qi Lei? Have you caught them yet?” Doris put out the cigarette in her hand and clenched her teeth as she said gloomily.

“Our people have gone out to chase them. However...we lost them, but, Miss, don’t worry. We’ve already sent out more people. The terrain in that area is complicated. In fact, we’ve gone deep into the mountains, and the car won’t be able to last for long, so it must be very hard for them to get out. Our people are familiar with the terrain. Plus, they don’t have any communication tools on them, so I’m sure they won’t be able to get out. Give us a bit more time. We’ll definitely catch them!” the man in black said a little worriedly and uneasily. When he saw Doris’ cold gaze about to burst into a fury, he was slightly afraid.

“Your capabilities are getting worse! If you can’t even handle this one little thing, why should I keep you? Useless! All of you are useless! Get out!”

Doris picked up the cup on the table and tossed it hard to the ground, frightening the man until he quickly knelt to beg, “Miss, please don’t be angry. Give us one more chance. We will definitely catch them again! Don’t worry!”

“Miss, actually, you can’t blame them entirely for this. They have to face Mu Lingmo and Qi Lei. Those two aren’t easy characters to deal with. Otherwise, Qi Feng wouldn’t have tossed this to you to do. We cannot be a mess because of this matter. We must speed up our actions.”

Glenn was Doris’s capable assistant, it would not be wrong to call him her strategist since many of the plans required his opinions as a reference too.

Thus, when Glenn said that, Doris calmed down slightly and looked coldly at the black-clothed man who suddenly knelt before her. She said coldly, “Get up. Get someone to search for their traces. Block every road entrance. We can’t let them get away.”

When the man in black heard that, he felt relieved. He did not say anything much. He only responded shortly before leaving, “Yes, Miss!”

Only Glenn and Doris were left in the room now. It instantly fell quiet, and the air subconsciously felt heavier.

After a while, Doris pointed at the sofa across and said to Glenn as she picked up a cigarette box, “You sit down too.” She lit a stick up herself and took a deep breath. Amidst the smoke, Glenn sat down too.

“Miss, you need to be more careful. Your heath’s been deteriorating recently.”

Doris leaned back and fell onto the sofa behind her while she let out a drag of smoke, and said with some frustration, “This isn’t as simple as it seems. If Qi Feng pushed all of these to me, I’m sure that means he’s also all prepared. Everything from before will go on as planned, and now, suddenly with all these new things popping up, we’re being obstructed once again.”

At this, she suddenly inhaled and relaxed a while, then she continued, “Glenn, I suddenly feel like this seems to be slowly getting off track. Why would Mu Yuchen suddenly come back? In this past month, it was because we’ve been playing hide and seek with him that our time got dragged on. Gu Qiwu’s playing guerrilla warfare with me now too.”

The longer this dragged out, the less it was looking up for them. Look, now something had happened.

Doris combed through her hair with her fingers and could not help but laugh bitterly. “You know what I’m most thankful for right now?”

“Miss...” Glenn called out softly, thought about it then said, “You...”

“The thing I’m most thankful for is that I didn’t confuse myself because of Gu Qiwu, that I wasn’t as dumb as Mu Zi was all those years ago. I’ve been married to him for so many years. Of course, there were good times, but I never lowered my guard as I didn’t want to end up the way my mother did.” Doris sighed softly, cleared her throat, and then flicked the cigarette between her fingers. “This all just proves that I was right to do that. Otherwise, today, I could’ve become the second Mu Zi.”

“Miss, you’re beautiful and elegant. You can’t be compared to Mu Zi. Miss, you shouldn’t sell yourself short,” Glenn could not bear to hear Doris say this, so he consoled her.

“I know how I am. Since we’ve reached this point, we have to take our time making decisions. On the one hand, we should hasten our plans. We can’t let Mu Yuchen and Gu Qiwu find out that Mu Lingmo and Qi Lei are no longer in our hands. Also, the other thing needs to be considered thoroughly too. We have to prepare to retreat. If anything happens, we’ll be a mess! We must find the three of them again. We have to do something about Gu Qiwu and Mu Lingshi right away!”
