Chapter 923 - He Can’t Return Anymore! (2/2)
For the Royal family, for the country, for the people, he sacrificed himself!
Bo Yan bit down on his molars hard, his eyes immediately turning red!
…
Shangguan Wan, who was still on the lorry, heard a loud boom and stretched her head out of the window, looking at the direction where the base was no longer in sight.
All she saw was that the skies there having turned a flaming red.
Shangguan Wan’s heart thumped, that bad feeling within her growing stronger!
She glanced at the soldier who was driving. “Turn around, we’re going back!”
“Lieutenant, we can only go forward and not turn back!”
Shangguan Wan’s eyes suddenly turned red and she screamed hoa.r.s.ely, “I’m telling you to go back!”
“My superior’s order is that we can only go forward!”
Shangguan Wan reached out to take control of the steering wheel.
At this moment, another person who was sitting behind them said his apologies before he lifted his hand to hit the back of Shangguan Wan’s neck.
…
Shangguan Wan opened her heavy eyes slowly. All she saw were a white ceiling, a white wall and the heavy smell of disinfectant permeating into her nose.
Her head was still aching slightly.
Staring at the endless white in front of her, it took her a long time before her sight slowly cleared.
She looked around her, finding herself in a hospital.
Pus.h.i.+ng her extremely sore body up, she sat up on the bed. She was about to get off the bed, though her action to remove the blanket suddenly stopped.
The scene before she lost consciousness was pushed to the front of her mind. Shangguan Wan tightened her grip on the blanket, using so much strength that her knuckles had turned pale.
The explosion, the sky that turned red…
Ye Yanfeng, Bo Yan, the rest…
Shangguan Wan trembled all over, all of the blood within her turning colder by the second.
At this moment, the door was pushed open and a cold and aloof figure walked in.
Bo Yan.
It was Bo Yan!
Shangguan Wan’s tense heart relaxed a little. If Bo Yan was fine, then Ye Yanfeng should be safe too!
Seeing that Shangguan Wan was awake, Bo Yan put down the fruits he was holding on the table and said, “You’ve been unconscious for three days.”
Shangguan Wan nodded dismissively. “Is everyone alright?”
Bo Yan naturally knew who her everyone included.
He pursed his lips tightly, saying hoa.r.s.ely, “We’ve sacrificed fifteen soldiers in total, and…”
Shangguan Wan’s heart was raised to the top of her throat once more, a cold clamminess making her palms sweat.
“The Prince was shot. The bullet was a few centimeters away from his heart, it’s fortunate that he survived. However, he will not have it easy. The base is now destroyed and all of the higher management the survived have been captured.”
Shangguan Wan nodded. “All of you did very well.” She glanced at Bo Yan, asking him with her eyes about that person. How was he? Was he already back safely?
Not daring to meet Shangguan Wan’s eyes, Bo Yan looked away, his hands clenching into tight fists. “As for His Highness…”
Shangguan Wan blinked at Bo Yan, her pretty nose trembling. However, she did her best to control her emotions as she asked softly, “What about him?”
Bo Yan looked out of the window, saying seriously, “His Highness personally went to the weaponry with a bomb prepared. He won’t be coming back.”
