"Wei Ming, stop messing around!"

Along with this terrified cry, Wei Ming's finger pressed the trigger again without hesitation.

However, at this critical moment, Wu Liang, who had been standing silently by the side, suddenly made a move like lightning and quickly moved the pistol away.

Due to Wu Liang's sudden action, the bullet originally aimed at Huo Shucheng's vital parts deviated from its direction.

Despite this, Huo Shucheng was unable to completely avoid the attack. The bullet grazed his left arm, and blood splattered everywhere, flowing down his arm.

Surprisingly, no one had noticed Wu Liang undid the heavy handcuffs before this. At this moment, his face revealed a hint of determination and courage.

Gu Yan, who was already exhausted, sat powerlessly on the cold ground, breathing heavily, his eyes fixed on Huo Shucheng who was also injured not far away.

When she found out that Huo Shucheng was only injured in his arm, her tense nerves finally relaxed a little, and her heart fell back into her chest.

Although she and Huo Shucheng were not very familiar with each other, and could even be said to be strangers to each other, the innate bond of kinship flowing in their blood was like an invisible force, quietly influencing her mood.

It turned out that she was much more loyal and righteous than he thought, and not as cold and heartless as she appeared.

On the other side, Huo Shucheng's face turned pale due to the severe pain in his arm. He gritted his teeth, endured the pain and half-knelt on the ground.

At this moment, the two people who were at the same height met each other's eyes, and there seemed to be thousands of words that they wanted to say but could not.

Fortunately, although Gu Yan's face was still frighteningly pale at this moment, the wound on his thigh had been treated preliminarily and was no longer as bloody and shocking as before.

However, the current situation remains grim.

Huo Shucheng was extremely anxious and secretly prayed that the reinforcements led by He Li would arrive as soon as possible.

Because their manpower suffered heavy losses in the fierce confrontation just now, most of them have lost their combat capability. If they cannot get support in time, the consequences will be disastrous.

"He's Huo Shucheng, the Huo family's only son! If you really kill him, the Huo family will never let you go. They will definitely try every possible way to make you pay a heavy price!"

Wu Liang shouted loudly, his voice full of warning.

Hearing this, Wei Ming couldn't help but narrow his eyes, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

He knew very well that the Huo and He families were now related by marriage. If Huo Shucheng knew about this place, it would not be long before He Li would hear the news and rush over.

Thinking of this, Wei Ming suddenly realized that his situation had become extremely dangerous. The nest he had painstakingly cultivated for many years was probably exposed. Staying here would be like sitting and waiting for death, like a turtle in a jar, at the mercy of others.

Just as Wei Ming was pondering this, he suddenly heard a slight noise from the corner of the second floor. Wei Ming's nerves immediately tensed up, and he shouted in that direction without hesitation, "Get out!"

Wu Zhenzhen knew very well that there was no way to avoid it this time. She took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and stood up slowly as if she had made up her mind.

Her body was trembling slightly and her steps seemed a little unsteady. Under Wei Ming's threatening gaze, she walked towards the stairs with a trembling step.

When Wu Liang finally saw Wu Zhenzhen, his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down a little.

However, at this moment, a light and hurried sound of footsteps suddenly came from outside the house.

"This... could it be that He Li arrived so quickly?"

Wu Liang thought to himself, but then shook his head and denied the idea.

"That shouldn't be the case. According to the estimated time, there's no way he could have arrived so quickly!"

Huo Shucheng, who was standing aside, was also frowning and lost in thought, trying to figure out what had happened.

Just when everyone was still puzzled, they heard a loud "bang" and the door outside the house was violently pushed open by a powerful force!

Everyone's eyes were instantly focused on the door. The person who appeared before them was not the imagined He Li, but another unexpected person - Fu Xu!

It turned out that Fu Xu and He Li had always maintained close communication.

Just about ten minutes ago, when Fu Xu was sitting at the table pondering his next course of action, his cell phone suddenly vibrated.

He picked it up and saw the latest news from Heli on the screen. Fu Xu's eyes immediately became sharp and he quickly read the message.

After a careful analysis and accurate judgment of the current geographical locations of both parties, a surprising result emerged - Fu Xu's location was actually closer to the target location.

Without any hesitation, Fu Xu rushed out of the room like a flash of lightning, his feet moving like the wind, and rushed towards his destination at the fastest speed he could achieve.

As time passed, Fu Xu became more and more anxious, but he never slowed down.

Finally, a familiar figure appeared in front.

That's right, it was Wei Ming and the others! The moment he saw them, the anger in Fu Xu's eyes was instantly ignited like a volcanic eruption.

"Wei Ming, you are such a heartless beast! My poor sister was just a weak, innocent and kind little girl. How could you be so cruel and brutal to kill her?"

Fu Xu questioned angrily, his voice trembling with anger.

Facing Fu Xu's angry rebuke, Wei Ming showed no shame at all. Instead, he revealed a ferocious smile: "Haha, Fu Xu, ah Fu Xu, it turns out it's you who's here. I thought you were some big shot! Your sister isn't as innocent and weak as you think. She's a cripple, and she's much more sinister and cunning than any normal person. She's terrifying. If I hadn't taken the initiative, by the time Gu Yan was taken to the hospital by He Li, she would have been taken away. I saved the woman I love, and you are nothing but a worthless loser!"

At this moment, time was too tight to allow anyone to waste even a moment's time arguing or arguing. Fu Xu, driven by the urgency of the situation, had hurried here, accompanied only by a handful of trusted confidants.

Just when Fu Xu made up his mind to take action, something unexpected happened - Wei Ming suddenly opened his coat, revealing a mysterious object tied around his waist!

In an instant, everyone present was dumbfounded. No one expected that Wei Ming would be so cruel as to tie explosives to himself!

"Wei Ming, have you gone crazy? Don't you even want to live anymore?"

Wu Liang was filled with regret at this moment, and he felt like his intestines were turning green with regret. He couldn't understand why he had been so obsessed as to agree to cooperate with this madman.

Now it seems that working with such a vicious person is like seeking the skin of a tiger! However, facing the astonishment and accusations of the crowd, Wei Ming remained calm and composed.

"Hmph, don't worry. I haven't enjoyed enough of this world's glory and wealth yet, so I won't give up my life easily. But..." Wei Ming's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile. He continued, "My men will arrive on this rooftop by helicopter in fifteen minutes. By then, I don't plan to take anyone else with me except Gu Yan."

After saying that, he stared at Fu Xu and the others with his cold eyes, as if warning them not to act rashly.

Gu Yan gritted her teeth, struggling to hold her shaky body upright, and cast her gaze at Wei Ming with all her strength. However, Wei Ming's sharp, hawk-like eyes seemed to be able to see through everything. He seemed to be able to see through the deepest and most secret corners of Gu Yan's heart, and ruthlessly exposed her newly germinated thoughts to her face.

"Hmph, don't even think about playing any tricks! Three years ago, that extremely stupid Gu Yan tried to kill me even if he risked his own life, but in the end it was all in vain, right? And now, what can you, a fellow who is equally ignorant of your own abilities, do to me? Gu Yan, oh Gu Yan, I no longer expect you to fall in love with me, but I will never let you go easily and let you live happily! Hahahaha..." Wei Ming let out a creepy laugh, and that laugh was like the roar of a devil from the abyss of hell, echoing in the air for a long time.

At this moment, Wei Ming roughly dragged Gu Yan towards the top floor.

Moments later, accompanied by the roar of rapidly spinning propellers, a helicopter appeared before everyone's eyes like a giant steel beast descending from the sky. Standing at the cabin door, the stern-faced man was none other than He Li, who had sped in. From his perch, he surveyed the chaotic scene below.

It turned out that He Li had received a mysterious anonymous message twenty minutes earlier. Like a ray of light in the darkness, this message clearly indicated Wei Ming's escape route. Drawing on years of experience and keen intuition, He Li acted decisively, boarded the long-awaited helicopter, and sped towards his target location.

However, the development of things is often full of variables.

Just two minutes ago, He Li received another urgent notification from Fu Xu—Wei Ming was carrying a powerful bomb! This sudden change instantly put He Li in a dilemma. Wei Ming had committed countless crimes and deserved death, but now, like a trapped beast at the end of his rope, he held the innocent Gu Yan hostage as his last bargaining chip.

Faced with such a difficult situation, He Li was filled with anxiety. He knew that while he could rely on the police's immense power to subdue Wei Ming, a single mistake could trigger a bomb explosion, killing Gu Yan. Such a consequence was something he could not afford. After all, Gu Yan's life was more important to him than anything else. Even if there was only a one-in-ten-thousand chance, he would never take the risk.
