After Rebirth, I Married the Archenemy of My Ex-Husband

Chapter 513

The room.

Only subtle sounds of breathing.

Very tense.

An Nuan kept her body taut, feeling the footsteps gradually approaching.

Her heartbeat was also racing, getting more and more frantic.

A pair of black leather boots stopped right beside An Nuan.

The footsteps only needed to move slightly to touch An Nuan.

An Nuan dared not move.

Yet she was so tense that her body was trembling.

If she were truly discovered, she would be shot in the head in the next second.

In her previous life, even when persecuted to the extreme, she had never encountered such a heart-pounding situation, at most she was stabbed to death by Gu Yansheng.

However, in this life.

She had been threatened with guns repeatedly.

If this continued, she could not guarantee that her sanity would not be driven to madness.

Time ticked by, second by second.

In the dark room, the four people seemed to have found nothing.

Yet they could not leave either.

An Nuan suddenly heard a man's muffled voice say into the transmitter, "Find the switch."

Once the lights were turned on.

An Nuan did not know where Qin Jiang and Hu Feng were hiding, but she would undoubtedly be killed.

She bit her lip, controlling her heart rate and trying to calmly think of how to escape.

At that moment.

A loud sound suddenly erupted in the room.

A vase was shattered on the floor not far away.

At the same time, the four scattered people instantly rushed towards the sound.

An Nuan saw a figure swiftly fleeing from the room.

The other four people were frantically giving chase.

Before An Nuan could catch her breath, she was abruptly grabbed by someone.

"It's me, Madam," Hu Feng's hurried and rapid voice.

An Nuan was nearly scared to death.

"Mr. Qin has gone to lure them away, I'll take you out first, and then they'll realize we're distracting them." Hu Feng pulled her by the arm, heading outside.

An Nuan didn't care that she wasn't wearing shoes or winter clothes, she just ran out with Hu Feng.

The two dared not take the elevator.

They took the emergency stairwell.

From the 14th floor, they ran all the way down to the parking garage without stopping.

They had arranged for a car to be parked there earlier, and Hu Feng and An Nuan got into the sedan.

Hu Feng floored the accelerator, frantically driving out of the hotel.

While driving, he called Qin Jiang, "Mr. Qin, I've already taken Madam away from the hotel. So far, there's no sign of anyone following us. How about your side?!"

"I'm shaking them off. Don't worry about me, meet at the usual place."

After saying that, Qin Jiang hung up the phone.

Hu Feng didn't delay a second, quickly driving to the "usual place."

An Nuan didn't know where their usual place was.

But she had a feeling they could find a safer place to take shelter.

The sedan soon arrived at a glitzy nightclub.

After Hu Feng parked the car, An Nuan got out with him.

After they got out, the vehicle was taken away by someone else, seemingly to prevent anyone from tracking their whereabouts through the car.

An Nuan followed Hu Feng into the nightclub.

Passing through the waves of sounds and crowds in the main hall, led by staff, they entered a private room.

When An Nuan thought it would just be Qin Jiang's designated private room like in Qingcheng, she saw the sofa in the room being pushed aside, revealing a hidden door that led to another room.

An Nuan tried her best to remain calm, following them inside.

After entering, the hidden door was closed behind them.

The room was left with only Hu Feng and An Nuan, and in such an enclosed space, An Nuan couldn't help but feel... oppressed and even lacking a sense of safety.

Hu Feng seemed to notice An Nuan's thoughts and quickly said, "Don't worry, all the nightclubs in North Wen Country are Qin Jiang's territory, there won't be any problems."

An Nuan nodded.

It wasn't that she didn't trust them.

She just felt that the deeper she went, the more astonishing secrets she would discover.

The two sat in the room for a while.

The hidden door opened again.

Qin Jiang appeared, somewhat out of breath.

His complexion didn't seem too good either.

He plopped down on a chair, looking uncomfortable.

"What's wrong?" An Nuan went over to him.

As she approached, she caught a whiff of a bloody smell.

Looking closer, she saw a bullet had pierced through Qin Jiang's pants on his thigh, the bullet still lodged there, looking vicious.

An Nuan was so shocked she couldn't say a word.

Qin Jiang told Hu Feng, "Get the first aid kit, help me remove the bullet."

"Okay." Hu Feng nodded quickly.

An Nuan just stood by, watching Qin Jiang.

Watching him in so much pain that his whole body was contorted, yet he kept his mouth shut, gritting his teeth without a word.

Hu Feng quickly found the first aid kit and began removing the bullet from Qin Jiang.

"Turn around," Qin Jiang said to An Nuan.

An Nuan was taken aback.

Was her fear so apparent?!

"I'm afraid Jinghuai will scold me later for scaring you," Qin Jiang joked through the pain.

An Nuan pursed her lips, then turned around.

It wasn't fear.

Or perhaps there was some fear.

But it definitely wasn't the main reason.

She was simply respecting their way of life.

Perhaps Qin Jiang didn't want anyone to see him in such a wretched state.

From behind, she only heard muffled groans.

An Nuan wondered.

Why, even though they were all scions of wealthy families, even though they were all privileged young masters, why had their lives been so different from others?

After about half an hour.

Qin Jiang's bullet was removed, and his wound was dressed.

He slumped on the sofa, in so much pain he seemed faint, eyes closed as if letting himself recover.

"There are rooms upstairs," Qin Jiang said with his eyes closed. "An Nuan, you go rest for a while."

"Aren't you going to sleep?"

"I'll sit here for a bit first. Don't worry, since this is our hideout, there will definitely be enough room for us to rest."

Qin Jiang thought she was worried there wouldn't be a place for him to sleep if she took a room.

But she had already surveyed the place after arriving.

This so-called private room was actually a hidden house, with a living room and kitchen downstairs, and it appeared there were 3 or 4 bedrooms upstairs.

"If you're not going to sleep, I'd like to talk to you for a bit," An Nuan sat down beside Qin Jiang.

Qin Jiang looked at An Nuan squarely and said bluntly, "I won't say anything, if you have something to ask, go ask Jinghuai."

"I won't make you say anything," An Nuan was a little exasperated - this guy was so guarded.

She had thought Qin Jiang seemed unreliable and flippant.

But in fact, he was far more rigorous than most people.

"I just want to talk to you about the case involving Ye Jinghuai."

"Hmm." Qin Jiang nodded in agreement.

"As soon as we arrived in Jiang City, we were ambushed and almost assassinated. This shows that Ye Jinghuai must have been framed, because they are afraid we'll find evidence, so they want to silence us and eliminate potential trouble," An Nuan returned to the main topic.

"What nonsense!" Qin Jiang said scornfully. "My brother has such upright character, he would never embezzle that little bit of money! The money he casually gives to women is way more than that!"
