After the divorce, I became a rich girl

He Zhizhou took a deep breath and said to the staff, "I will be responsible for my own safety." After that, he ignored the staff's obstruction and walked straight into the elevator to go downstairs.

Seeing that He Zhizhou was determined to go down, several lawyers who had come from China to support him said, "Lawyer He, we will go down with you."

Although He Zhizhou knew that there is strength in numbers, he still declined, saying, "It's very dangerous outside right now, and if so many of us go out together, it will easily attract attention. I can go alone."

However, as soon as He Zhizhou stepped out of the hotel lobby, he felt a gust of air rushing past his ear, followed by a sharp pain in his earlobe.

He subconsciously jumped up quickly and lay down beside the flower bed. The height of the flower bed just covered his body, forming a protective barrier.

He Zhizhou lay on the ground, not daring to move too much. At this moment, he saw a woman lying less than 20 meters away from him, with blood gushing out from under her.

He Zhizhou had never experienced such a thrilling scene. He was so nervous that his throat became dry and he swallowed involuntarily.

He felt a piercing pain in his left ear and subconsciously reached out to touch his earlobe, but his fingers touched something sticky.

He held his finger up to his eyes and saw that it was covered in blood.

And there was a bullet hole on the hotel door behind him on the left.

At this moment, a strong sense of fear arose from the bottom of his heart.

If he hadn't subconsciously turned his head just now, the bullet would not have just grazed his earlobe, but would have gone straight through his eyebrows.

Just as He Zhizhou was trying to calm his inner fear, a sirens sounded from far away, and it was obvious that the police had finally arrived.

The speed at which the foreign police respond to calls is really disappointing. If it were in China, the police would arrive at the scene one minute after the criminals opened fire, instead of waiting more than ten minutes for the police to arrive.

He Zhizhou did not hear any more gunshots, nor did he care about the wound on his earlobe. He slowly stood up, crouched down and moved forward, wanting only to find Li Yan as quickly as possible.

When He Zhizhou bent over and passed by the woman, he heard her weak groaning. He Zhizhou really couldn't sit idly by and watch this dying life. If he let her bleed like this, she would probably die from excessive blood loss before the ambulance arrived.

He Zhizhou quickly bent down, picked up the woman, and quickly returned to the hotel. Fortunately, the hotel staff saw him return and immediately opened the door.

Five-star hotels are usually equipped with emergency personnel. The woman was shot in the left chest, but fortunately no vital parts were injured. The emergency personnel immediately gave her simple treatment.

Seeing that the woman was being taken care of, He Zhizhou left the hotel again despite others' attempts to stop him.

Fortunately, after the police arrived this time, the gunman had lost his previous arrogance. He Zhizhou successfully left the hotel and took advantage of the break to check whether Li Yan was among the injured lying on the ground.

It was somewhat comforting that Li Yan was not among those who fell and were injured.

Just when He Zhizhou felt relieved, he looked up and saw Li Yan wrestling with a masked man holding a gun in an alley across the street.

He Zhizhou's heart instantly rose to his throat and he ran over without thinking.

When he got closer, he kicked the man in the side. The huge impact made the man fly several meters away and fall heavily to the ground.

Seeing that it was He Zhizhou, Li Yan forced a smile. Without saying anything more, he rushed over to the man and pressed down his gun-holding hand.

Seeing this, He Zhizhou immediately reached out to grab the weapon from the man's hand.

However, this man had obviously received professional training. Although He Zhizhou and Li Yan had also learned some martial arts, they had very little time to practice in recent years except for daily fitness exercises, and their hands and feet had become somewhat stiff.

The two men tried very hard but were unable to completely subdue the man. They could only barely hold down his hands and prevent him from shooting.

Just when the two men felt their strength was rapidly depleting and they were about to be unable to control the man, fortunately the police heard the noise and rushed over.

Seeing the three people fighting and the masked man pinned to the ground, the police immediately understood the situation.

Two policemen immediately stepped forward to help, and He Zhizhou couldn't help but relax a little. The man took the opportunity to hit He Zhizhou's stomach with his knee.

He Zhizhou only felt a sharp pain, and the pain made him subconsciously release the hand that was suppressing the man.

The man seized the opportunity, broke free from Li Yan's restraints, quickly pointed the gun at He Zhizhou and pulled the trigger.

In a flash, Li Yan leaped up and pounced on He Zhizhou. He Zhizhou only heard three gunshots in succession and then lost consciousness.

When He Zhizhou regained consciousness, he found himself lying on a hospital bed, and everything around him was very quiet.

Because he just woke up, his mind was blank until he saw the infusion needle on the back of his left hand, and the memories before he fell into a coma instantly flooded his mind.

He suddenly sat up from the bed, pulled the needle, and blood immediately flowed back into the infusion tube.

The pain on the back of his hand made him more awake. He reached out and pulled out the needle from the back of his hand and was about to get out of bed.

At this time, a man pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing He Zhizhou's behavior, he hurried forward to stop him and said, "Zhizhou, what are you doing? Lie down quickly!"

"Ziqian!" When He Zhizhou saw that the person coming was Wei Ziqian, he felt relieved and asked hurriedly, "How is Li Yan?"

Wei Ziqian looked at the concerned look on He Zhizhou's face, sighed helplessly, and said, "He was shot in the back, but it wasn't a vital injury. Thanks to the timely rescue, he's out of danger."

Hearing Wei Ziqian's words, He Zhizhou couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief and said, "It's good that there's no danger to life!"

Wei Ziqian looked at He Zhizhou's bleeding left hand, sighed again, and walked forward to press the pager on the bedside.

After the nurse came over and re-infused He Zhizhou's fluids, Wei Ziqian said with lingering fear, "You two were too reckless. If the police had been even a minute later, you and Li Yan would have both died at the hands of that criminal today."

He Zhizhou rubbed his aching stomach. Just now, when he lifted up his clothes to take a look, his stomach was covered with bruises, which showed how strong the man was and how cruel he was.

Recalling his desperate actions at that time, and now having narrowly escaped death, He Zhizhou couldn't help but feel a wave of fear in his heart. He said, "This time, it was thanks to Li Yan that he saved me. The gun was originally aimed at me, but he helped me block it."
