"Alright."
Gong Chen threw the gun in his hand without hesitation.
The jet ski approached the boat, boarding the deck.
Bai Zhengxian was very alert, staring hard at Gong Chen.
"Raise your hands. Third Young Master, you’d better not play tricks. I’m at my wits’ end and don’t mind taking someone down with me."
While speaking.
Lin Zhiyi tolerated the pressure on her jaw and slightly tugged at the jacket at her waist.
Revealing the black gun butt.
Gong Chen’s eyes lowered slightly, and he slowly raised his hands.
He looked at Lin Zhiyi, his eyes flickering.
"There’s no point in capturing Lin Zhiyi, I’m more valuable than her. I’ll exchange myself for her."
Upon hearing this.
Bai Zhengxian was a bit shocked.
"Third Young Master, you want to replace her? Aren’t you afraid to die?"
"Exchange or not?"
Gong Chen’s sharp eyebrows and handsome eyes coldly fixated on Bai Zhengxian.
Even now, he was at a disadvantage, but his imposing aura was intimidating.
Bai Zhengxian was well aware of his situation; leveraging Gong Chen was indeed his last hope.
"Exchange."
His gun moved from Lin Zhiyi’s chin to her back, and he pushed her forward.
"Don’t try any tricks, my gun doesn’t have eyes."
"..."
Lin Zhiyi nodded.
Slowly approached Gong Chen.
Gong Chen looked at her, his gaze swept down.
Lin Zhiyi instinctively followed his gaze down, instantly understanding something.
When the two were face to face, Gong Chen suddenly raised his eyes to look at Bai Zhengxian.
In a flash, Lin Zhiyi turned sideways to let Gong Chen pull out the gun at her waist.
Meanwhile, she ducked under his arm to his back, pulling out the gun from his waist.
Kneeling on the ground, she fired a shot at Bai Zhengxian.
Gong Chen shot Bai Zhengxian’s gun away.
As for Lin Zhiyi... she hit him between the legs.
"Ah!"
Bai Zhengxian fell to the ground in pain, struggling to grab the gun on the ground, while he painfully ordered his bodyguards.
"Kill them! Kill them!"
Unbeknownst to him.
The police had long boarded the boat during Gong Chen and Bai Zhengxian’s confrontation, taking control of the bodyguards.
At this time, the gun was already pointed at his forehead.
Gong Chen handed the gun to the police and reached out to pull Lin Zhiyi up.
"Not bad, you didn’t waste my teachings."
Lin Zhiyi pursed her lips: "I actually wanted to hit his leg."
Upon hearing, both Gong Chen and the police looked at Bai Zhengxian.
This deviation...
Gong Chen defended her: "Hitting is enough, doesn’t matter, but don’t play with guns in the future."
Lin Zhiyi: "..."
The leading officer stepped forward.
"Mr. Gong, thank you for providing the information and your cooperation."
"Just doing what I should. Bai Zhengxian is in a hurry to leave; he must have taken all the hidden evidence with him." Gong Chen said.
Soon, the police found three laptops, two large boxes of documents, and a significant amount of cash and firearms in the cabin.
Evidence was conclusive.
Lin Zhiyi looked at the evidence and suddenly understood, turning to Gong Chen.
"Did you jump into the sea on purpose to let Bai Zhengxian escape?"
"Yes, the cruise ship is too big, and the Bai Family forms a crime network. If we interrogate them one by one, they’ll cover for each other, wasting time and manpower. The only way is to let Bai Zhengxian escape; he’ll definitely take the most crucial evidence with him, so we don’t need to waste time searching."
Gong Chen was extraordinarily calm, as if everything was within his expectations.
On the ground, Bai Zhengxian’s face turned ashen, glaring fiercely at Gong Chen.
"Why don’t you kill me?"
"Kill you? Too easy for you."
Gong Chen looked down at him condescendingly.
Lin Zhiyi froze for a moment; she had thought Gong Chen missed his shot too, but he did it intentionally.
Indeed.
Then sat back down.
Gong Yao’s face was swelling, looking at Gong Chen with resentment.
Why didn’t he die!
Gong Chen stepped forward: "Unconvinced? Then I’ll give you another chance."
With that, he threw the long umbrella in Gong Yao’s arms.
"Get up, don’t let everyone despise you." Gong Chen said disdainfully.
This statement seemed to touch Gong Yao’s sore spot.
He clutched the umbrella and charged at Gong Chen but couldn’t even withstand three moves before rolling three times on the ground.
Now sitting in the hall were people from Jing City’s inner circle who could speak.
With this roll, Gong Yao could never climb back up in the circle for life.
He looked at Gong Chen, eyes filled with the desire to kill him.
Yet even getting up was difficult.
Gong Chen expressionlessly broke the umbrella in his hand and threw it in front of Gong Yao.
"Next time, this will be your fate."
Having said that, Gong Chen left with Lin Zhiyi.
Leaving Gong Yao to endure the ridicule of the onlookers.
...
Cargo hold.
A few hours ago.
After waking up, Fang Sisi freed herself.
When Xiaorui and Jingjing went to open the car compartment, she put on a jacket and headed upstairs.
The surrounding area was chaotic; she grabbed a random Bai Family subordinate.
"I’m the second young lady; quickly take me away!"
"Crazy! Second young lady? It’s all a lie to you!"
He pushed Fang Sisi to the ground, running off by himself.
Fang Sisi got up, leaning against the wall, muttering to herself.
"Not fake, it’s real."
Suddenly, she recalled Lin Zhiyi and Chu Yin mentioning taking the kids to the medical room.
They had saved her before and were bound to save her again.
