Chapter 35 (2/2)

But at this time, a squad member in the human wall suddenly stumbled, and his body collapsed onto the ground with a heavy thud.

Liang Zhaohui gave a cursory glance and saw a pool of shockingly red blood gradually spreading from the fallen squad member.

“Captain Zhong, another brother has been shot!”

“Keep going!”

Zhong Wei steeled his face, not showing even a trace of hesitation. He was certain that if the hooligans overran them, the few squad members left would be hard-pressed to guarantee Nanrong Wanqing’s safety.

The intersection was straight ahead. As soon as they could cross the intersection, the parking lot would be within reach.

Noticing they were getting closer and closer to their goal, everyone quickly speeded up, preparing to make a final sprint.

However, at this crucial moment, a squad member that was following right behind Zhong Wei lurched forward suddenly, and his collapsing upper body coincidentally knocked into Zhong Wei’s legs.

The brunt impact immediately caused Zhong Wei to lose his centre of gravity, and he heavily crashed onto the ground. The wheelchair, which he had been gripping onto tightly, flew forward.

Propelled by inertia, Nanrong Wanqing’s wheelchair rapidly drifted forward, and she lost control of it in an instant.

“Chairwoman!”

“Big Sis!”

Nanrong Hao was horrified, and he dashed forward in a mad frenzy, trying his hardest to catch up with the out-of-control wheelchair.

At that moment, Nanrong Wanqing, who was sitting on the wheelchair, was tightly biting her lips, and her face was deathly pale. Although the wheelchair had a braking mechanism, given the insane speed that she was travelling, the moment the braking mechanism was activated, she would fly out of the wheelchair.

Alas, she soon noticed that not far in front of her, she was swiftly approaching a barrier. At this speed, even if she did not brake, once she collided with the barrier, she would similarly be flung out of the wheelchair as well.

Is there no way to escape this predicament?

Her lips curved up, revealing a weak and bitter smile. She promptly closed her eyes, moving her hand towards the wheelchair’s braking mechanism.

Squeak!

When the brake was activated, the wheelchair that was rampantly moving forward screeched to an emergency stop. At the same time, Nanrong Wanqing felt a strong force overcoming her body. She was forcefully flung out of the wheelchair and immediately made a rapid descent towards the concrete floor in front. She squeezed her eyelids even tightly shut and braced herself for the inevitable impact.

However, after a few seconds, Nanrong Wanqing became acutely aware that she seemed to be okay. The concrete floor was not as hard as she thought, but slightly soft and even elastic.

Thinking of this, her hands naturally started caressing the “floor”, wanting to get a better understanding on why she was unscathed.

“Chairwoman, if you continue messing around, then don’t blame me for reporting you for molestation!”

A familiar and annoying voice rang beside her ears, and Nanrong Wanqing promptly opened her eyes, only to see a smug smirk coming into view.

“Ling Chen?”

It took quite a moment before her full lips managed to utter these two words, astonishment was evident in her voice.

No wonder I was okay. So, it turns out that he managed to catch me.

“Chairwoman, can you move your hand aside first?”

Although Ling Chen relished the intimate contact, Nanrong Wanqing had placed her hand in that place, and it was far too stimulating for him to bear.

As he reminded her, Nanrong Wanqing immediately came to her senses. She noticed that her hand was still at the base of his thigh, less than a few centimetres from his little brother.

Suddenly, a trace of disgust and embarrassment flashed in her eyes, and she recoiled violently.

“Let me down.”

Hearing her authoritative tone, Ling Chen merely shrugged and gently placed her on the ground.
