Lu Lin took this position with an iron fist and offended many people.

Those people couldn't find any loopholes in his business and couldn't punish him.

The only way to deal with him is through simple and brutal means such as assassination.

The car finally stopped on a remote mountain road.

They could see from the rearview mirror that the two black cars behind them had also stopped.

The car doors opened at the same time, and eight strong men got out.

Under Yan Wanning's shocked gaze, Cheng Lei took out a gun from the central armrest and calmly got out of the car.

Lu Lin noticed her expression and asked, "Are you scared?"

Yan Wanning answered truthfully: "Afraid."

Although she had seen many bloody scenes in prison, this was the first time she had seen a gun being used openly.

Lu Lin sneered: "Don't worry, you will be fine."

There were bursts of gunfire outside the car, and Yan Wanning asked, "Do you often encounter this kind of situation?"

Lu Lin was stunned for a moment. Her eyes... was this sympathy? Worry?

She was imagining the suffering he had endured and felt pity and distress for him.

Lu Lin hummed softly, and his voice was so gentle that even he himself found it incredibly gentle.

Ten minutes later, Cheng Lei got in the car and said, "Second Master, it's all done."

He put the gun back into the center armrest, took out a towel and wiped the blood off his hands.

Lu Lin: "Well, let's go."

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a bang beside Yan Wanning. She turned around and saw two bloody handprints on the car window.

Then, a bloody man climbed up.

A pair of dark eyes were staring at them in the car through the half-open window.

"what!"

Yan Wanning was so frightened that her face turned pale and she couldn't control herself and screamed.

The man outside the car raised his gun with trembling hands.

Lu Lin's face was cold. He pressed Yan Wanning's head into his arms with one hand, and raised his other hand, holding a pistol.

Yan Wanning's entire face was pressed into Lu Lin's arms, her vision was pitch black, and her ears were covered by Lu Lin's big hands.

After a few gunshots, Lu Lin released his hands that were covering her ears.

Cheng Lei got out of the car, wiped the blood off the window, then drove away from the scene quickly.

Yan Wanning slowly got up from Lu Lin's arms and looked in the rearview mirror at the corpses in the middle of the mountain road, which were getting farther and farther away and smaller.

Her eyes were red and her slightly trembling body unconsciously shrank into the corner of the car.

Seeing her so scared, Lu Lin felt a little bit reluctant and looked at Cheng Lei with anger in his eyes.

Cheng Lei saw Lu Lin’s angry eyes in the rearview mirror.

He knew that Lu Lin was really angry this time. His face turned pale and his palms, which were gripping the steering wheel, were full of sweat.

"I'm sorry, Master! I was careless just now. This kind of thing will never happen again!"

Lu Lin said coldly: "I give you one day to find out who is behind this! Otherwise, you don't have to follow me anymore!"

Cheng Lei: “Yes!”

Lu Lin glanced at Yan Wanning and ordered, "Don't go to the hospital, go home."

Yan Wanning looked at him puzzledly.

Lu Lin said expressionlessly: "Go home and have a good rest before visiting my mother. Don't let her see any clues."

Yan Wanning calmed down and shook her head, "No, I'm fine."

Lu Lin frowned: "You're so scared, but you're still okay?"

Compared to Yan Wanning's panic, Lu Lin and Cheng Lei seemed too calm.

This made Yan Wanning a little annoyed. She defended herself by saying, "I have recovered now. I won't reveal the truth in front of Aunt Chen."

Lu Lin was skeptical: "Really?"

Yan Wanning nodded seriously, "Really!"

She had a stubborn look in her eyes, as if to prove that she was not a coward.

Lu Lin couldn't help but find it funny.

What on earth was going on in her head? Why was she so arrogant?

Is it so hard to admit that she was scared and cried? No one will laugh at her.

"Okay, whatever."

In the end, Lu Lin asked Cheng Lei to drive the car towards the hospital.

Because of what just happened, the atmosphere in the car was depressing.

Yan Wanning didn't want to talk, so she just kept looking at the scenery outside the window.

After the car drove into the city, she noticed a snack shop on the street.

"parking!"

Lu Lin frowned slightly: "What's wrong with you?"

Yan Wanning pointed in the direction of the store and said, "I heard Aunt Chen mention it before. She likes to eat the chestnut cake from Chengdongnanji."

Lu Lin sighed, "Cheng Lei."

Cheng Lei immediately said, "I'll go down and buy it now."

Yan Wanning said, "I'll go!"

After saying that, she got out of the car.

When she came back, she had two more bags of chestnut cakes in her hands.

She handed one of the bags of chestnut cakes to Lu Lin, a smile on her face, "I just tried it, it tastes really good."

Lu Lin became a little lost in her smile. After coming back to his senses, he immediately said, "No."

Yan Wanning did not take back the chestnut cake from him, but stuffed it directly into his arms and said seriously, "Try it, it's really delicious."

Lu Lin's body was a little stiff and the tips of his ears were slightly red.

He took the bag of chestnut cakes hesitantly and asked, "Why did you buy this for me?"

Yan Wanning smiled and said, "Thank you for protecting me just now."

Lu Lin: “…Yeah.”

Only after Yan Wanning got off the car outside the hospital did Lu Lin open the bag of chestnut cakes.

The square pastry lies in the middle of the greaseproof paper and tastes sweet and soft.

He seldom eats sweets, as he feels that they are something only little girls like, and that men would look feminine if they ate them.

But this chestnut cake is really good.

Cheng Lei was terrified all the way and dared not breathe.

He had been secretly observing Lu Lin's expression through the rearview mirror so that he could adjust the way he spoke to him at any time so as not to further anger Lu Lin.

Then he saw that Lu Lin, who originally had a murderous look on his face, suddenly brightened up his eyes after eating a piece of chestnut cake.

Cheng Lei was a little confused. Is it really that delicious?

He wanted to try it, but didn't dare ask Lu Lin for it.

He decided to buy a pack after get off work to try it out.

Chen Meiqing was in a good mood after eating the chestnut cake brought by Yan Wanning. She was forgiven for being more than an hour later than usual today.

Yan Wanning asked: "Is it the taste you remember?"

Chen Meiqing nodded repeatedly: "Yes! This is the taste! I haven't eaten it for many years. I didn't expect that store is still open."

Yan Wanning smiled and said, "As long as you like it, I'll buy it for you tomorrow."

Chen Meiqing was very happy, "That's great, come, try it too."

She took out a piece of chestnut cake and handed it to Yan Wanning's mouth.

Yan Wanning ate it in one gulp, "Thank you, Mom."

Chen Meiqing suddenly asked: "By the way, Wanwan, are you free next Monday?"

Yan Wanning thought about it and from what Lu Lin said in the morning, she should be able to return to the crew to act soon.

So if nothing unexpected happens, she should be playing a supporting role in the crew next Monday.

"I should be free. I have more freedom in my schedule as an extra. Even if I have a scene on the same day, I can make adjustments on the spot."

"Mom, what's going on next Monday?"
