Chapter 182 - A Promise is A Promise (2/2)

“You know me, Captain Xia.” His voice had a soothing power, which instantly calmed down Ye Jian’s nerves. “Everything is well. We are being locked in a room on the fourth floor of a bar. I guess we are safe until midnight. But I’m not sure what will happen after midnight.”

Gao Yiyang was also resting with his eyes closed. When he heard Ye Jian speaking, he thought she was just uttering nonsense in her sleep.

But after listening to her words clearly, Gao Yiyang stood up abruptly. Dumbstruck, he gazed at Ye Jian.

Captain Xia? Who… Who was she talking to? How did she get in touch with people outside?

Gao Yiyang’s head was overwhelmed by a myriad of questions and felt a bit dizzy from standing up too fast. He saw Ye Jian smiling gently and speaking with someone at a moderate speed which made him wonder if he was hallucinating.

“Both of us are fine. The kidnappers are not very alert since we are just students. Proceed with your operation first. I can protect myself.” Within one hour or so after Ye Jian sent out her location, Xia Jinyuan arrived. He must have tried his best not to waste a single minute.

She knew he would come. She never doubted him.

When Xia Jinyuan heard his little fox’s innocent and calm voice, he realized that she was safe and sound. A warm smile appeared on his handsome but cold face. “Okay, wait for my good news. We will meet before midnight.”

He a.s.sured Ye Jian that he would meet her before any danger would bestow upon her.

A man’s promise inadvertently delivered in a time like this was as good as gold.

“If I can get myself out, you won’t have to come over,” Ye Jian answered, smiling with her bright and witty eyes. “It’s a rare opportunity for actual combat. I want to be a part of it.”
