Chapter 1035 He Persevered to the End
"You..." Gu Jinlan was about to speak.
But Zhao Jinheng spoke first. He spoke very quickly and did not give Gu Jinlan any chance to interrupt:
"It's not for you anyway. I just don't want you to die saving me, and I don't want to make my parents sad. Now that you've finally returned to them, they definitely won't be able to accept losing you again."
Right, that is it!
Gu Jinlan couldn't help laughing when she saw Zhao Jinheng avoiding her gaze.
This guy is too embarrassed to do that.
"Zhao Lao Er, you don't have to feel embarrassed to face me."
Hearing this, Zhao Jinheng frowned slightly.
The name 'Zhao Lao Er' is really ugly!
The first time they heard her call him that, they almost got into a fight.
Gu Jinlan continued, "I came to save you, but not for you.
I am doing this for Mr. Chen. He saved my life, and saving you is the same as repaying him for saving my life.
I have the same reason as you, and it’s also for the Zhao family. They have been very kind to me, and I don’t want to see them sad because of your death.”
Zhao Jinheng was stunned for a moment, then he slowly let out a breath, "That's good."
Gu Jinlan took off his mask and took a deep breath of the fresh air in the forest. "You should have said it earlier. I'm suffocating with the mask on."
Zhao Jinheng then turned around and looked at Gu Jinlan, seeing her bright smile.
The rippling water of the river was reflected in her eyes, as lively as an elf in the forest.
The Gu Jinlan in front of him seemed to be a different person from the Gu Jinlan he knew in the past.
"Then I will apply medicine on you. Just scream out if it hurts." Gu Jinlan continued to treat Zhao Jinheng's wound.
“It doesn’t hurt…hiss…” Before he could finish his words, Zhao Jinheng closed his eyes tightly in pain and took a deep breath.
Gu Jinlan glanced at him.
Let you act strong and be tough!
She continued to apply hemostatic and antiseptic medicine to Zhao Jinheng, without slowing down her movements.
"Okay, put on your clothes." Gu Jinlan packed up the medical bag and turned around to continue driving the speedboat.
Zhao Jinheng put on his clothes and asked, "Where are we going now?"
Gu Jinlan said, "I'll take you to a safe place first, and then we'll make plans later. Anyway, you can't be seen walking around outside."
Zhao Jinheng just escaped like that, and the organization had no way to explain to their employer, so they would definitely continue to hunt down Zhao Jinheng.
The road ahead may even be more dangerous.
Since they can't get what they want from Zhao Jinheng, they will never let Zhao Jinheng go back alive.
Gu Jinlan took out his headphones and put them on, then flicked the switch and prepared to contact Si Mo.
Zhao Jinheng asked: "Where is the safe place you mentioned?"
"It's a beautiful and peaceful farm, like a paradise on earth..." As Gu Jinlan was speaking, his voice suddenly stopped.
She couldn't contact Si Mo.
She suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart and quickly took off her headphones to check if there was any damage.
The signal light on the headset was flashing normally, indicating that the headset was not broken and there was no problem with the signal on her side.
Putting on the headphones again, Gu Jinlan's voice revealed a hint of nervousness, "Call, call..."
There was still no response from the headphones, only the "sizzling" sound of electricity.
The signal from Si Mo was disconnected.
Gu Jinlan's expression turned serious.
Recalling what happened in the mental hospital just now, the ward door suddenly malfunctioned, and the weird music playing on the radio as usual.
That should have been the time when Si Mo was wrestling with the hackers from the organization.
Something happened to Si Mo.
But he persevered to the end.
Seeing that Gu Jinlan didn't continue talking, Zhao Jinheng asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"
"We can't go to that place. I'll take you to Matt's place. Matt is the founder of blue. You should have met him at my third brother's wedding. He is my good friend and you can trust him."
Zhao Jinheng looked at Gu Jinlan with some surprise.
She actually changed her name to calling Jingchuan Third Brother, but still called herself Zhao Second.
Gu Jinlan's tone of voice was calm and nothing sounded unusual. When Zhao Jinheng looked at her, he noticed that her expression was abnormal.
There was no longer the lively light in her eyes, and although there was no expression on her face, it was obvious that she was trying hard to suppress some emotion.
Zhao Jinheng asked hesitantly, "Did something happen to your friend on the farm?"
"Yeah." Gu Jinlan responded indifferently.
"I'm sorry." Zhao Jinheng looked ashamed.
The person who had the accident on the farm should be the one who remotely cooperated with Gu Jinlan to save him.
"Oh, it's okay. It has nothing to do with you." Gu Jinlan smiled at Zhao Jinheng. "In our line of work, sacrifices are inevitable. As long as the mission is completed, that's all. I'm going to speed up. Hold on tight."
After saying that, Gu Jinlan increased the horsepower of the speedboat.
The moment she turned her head and looked forward, her vision instantly became blurred.
A drop of salty tear seeped into the corner of her raised lips.
Zhao Jinheng did not see the tears on Gu Jinlan's face, but noticed that Gu Jinlan's thin shoulders trembled slightly.
He looked at her thin back with a frown on his face, and opened his mouth several times to say something comforting, but each time he stopped himself.
-
Matt, who was still sleeping, was awakened by a sudden doorbell ring.
"Who is it so early in the morning?" Matt got out of bed impatiently.
Putting on his slippers, he ruffled his messy short hair, squinted one eye and opened the door.
When Matt saw Gu Jinlan coming outside the door, his squinting eye immediately widened, "Damn! Did I get up the wrong way today?"
Normally, Gu Jinlan seldom comes to see him.
Especially after having the Tenth Master, Gu Jinlan began to value women over friendship and would never contact him unless necessary.
After making sure that he was not sleepwalking, Matt opened his other closed eye.
"It's really you. What gust of wind blew this big Buddha like you here?"
"Let's talk after we go in."
Gu Jinlan walked in quickly, and Matt then saw Zhao Jinheng following behind her. He exclaimed in surprise, "Second Young Master Zhao!"
Zhao Jinheng nodded gently to Zhao Jinheng in a gentlemanly manner, "Sorry for bothering you."
Matt was still in a daze when Gu Jinlan and Zhao Jinheng walked into the room.
Matt found it incredible to see the two of them appear at the same time. "Don't you two usually get along? How come you are together?"
"..." Zhao Jinheng pulled the corner of his lips awkwardly, and he could understand Matt's shock.
Just like when he saw the face behind the mask in the morning, it was hard for him to believe his eyes.
"Don't ask so many questions, just go get us something to eat." Gu Jinlan said.
She knew there was no need to remind or instruct Matt, and Matt would not reveal their whereabouts.
All these years, Matt had no idea what exactly she was doing.
People always joke that she is like a superhero who is rarely seen. When she is not around, she is saving the world.
Maybe Matt guessed something.
But Matt was very strict about her affairs.
He is a friend who can make her feel at ease and trustworthy.
