Chapter 114 Crisis

"Miss Shen, stay in the car. I'll go down and check." In this situation, the bodyguards were far more vigilant than usual.

One bodyguard got out of the car to investigate, while the other two stayed inside, tightly gripping their weapons.

As soon as the bodyguard opened the car door and stepped out, a gunshot suddenly rang out. The bodyguard fell to the ground. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and wasn't hit in a vital area.

"There's an ambush! Protect Miss Shen well." The bodyguard quickly closed the car door. The one outside leaned against the side of the car and reported the situation.

There were no visible enemies on the surface. It was probably a sniper hiding in the dark, which was the most dangerous. They didn't dare to be the least bit careless.

Fortunately, the bodyguards around Ling Xiaoxiao had truly fought on the battlefield. Facing this situation, they weren't overly panicked. Instead, they comforted Shen Nanyi.

"I'm fine. You handle the situation as you see fit. I won't cause you any trouble." After all, Shen Nanyi had seen the world. Although she had never witnessed a gunfight, she had truly seen battles on the battlefield. The scenes were no better than this one, and were even more brutal.

Even though Shen Nanyi had lived a relatively happy life in this lifetime, some memories were engraved in her bones. Therefore, Shen Nanyi calmed down in the shortest possible time.

The bodyguards were completely surprised by Shen Nanyi's calmness. They were less worried and began to focus on dealing with the situation outside.

There was no movement outside the car, and the bodyguards around Shen Nanyi didn't move either. They stayed inside the car.

No one knew if the people outside had left. Staying in the car was the safest option at this time. After all, the car Shen Nanyi was in had been modified, and ordinary bullets wouldn't cause much damage to the car itself.

All the sounds around seemed to quiet down at this moment. The sound of the wind could be clearly heard.

With one hand tightly clenched under her clothes, Shen Nanyi didn't want to show her nervousness. It had been a long time since she had encountered such a situation, and she needed time to calm down.

The people outside didn't act in a hurry, as if they had given up.

The people inside the car didn't relax at all. They knew that if the person outside was a top - notch sniper, even a slight mistake on their part would be exploited by the other side.

The injured bodyguard outside the car had taken out a bandage from his body and quickly started to bandage his wound. He looked around, observing the most ideal hiding place.

Time passed by minute by minute. Neither side was willing to make the first move, as if the first one to act would lose.

At this moment, the sound of a speeding car rang out. A car of the same level as the one Shen Nanyi was in rushed towards them at a very high speed.

From a distance, the people in the car could tell that the approaching vehicle had also been modified. If it really crashed into them, neither side would benefit.

The driver quickly honked the horn and made a prompt decision to drive. The injured bodyguard outside heard the horn and grabbed the car door with one hand and jumped in.

When he got in, Shen Nanyi noticed that the bodyguard's injury was close to his chest. Fortunately, it didn't hit a vital area, but even so, his clothes were stained red, and it looked quite serious.

But the bodyguard himself seemed to be unaware of the pain. He stared straight out of the window, his body upright.

For them, they could never let the other side detect any weakness, no matter what. Even if they were extremely weak, they couldn't show it to the enemy.

The driver quickly reversed the car, made a turn - the whole action was smooth and skillful. Under the driver's proficient driving skills, Shen Nanyi and the others started to speed away.

But one of the car tires had burst. No matter how fast the driver drove, they couldn't outrun the car behind. Seeing that the car behind was about to catch up, the driver gritted his teeth and turned the steering wheel sharply, driving into a small path on one side.

The car behind missed the small path because of its high speed and rushed straight ahead. By the time it reversed back, Shen Nanyi and the others had already driven a certain distance.

Feeling that they had been tricked, the people in the other car accelerated and chased after them.

Sitting in the car, Shen Nanyi felt like she was in a real - life version of *Fast & Furious*. It was extremely exciting.

"When we reach the bush up ahead, you all get out. I'll drive to lead them away." In the chaos, the driver was quite calm and quickly came up with an escape plan.

The people around quickly nodded. When the car reached the bush, the driver slowed down. A bodyguard helped Shen Nanyi out, and the others followed closely behind.

The whole process was carried out very quickly. Moreover, the place the driver chose was very clever, a turning point. The car behind didn't even notice that someone had gotten out of the car and continued to follow the car in front.

Even though she was protected by the bodyguards, Shen Nanyi still fell hard.

The few people lay motionless in the bush, listening to the surrounding sounds.

As soon as they got out of the car and stabilized, the driver took out his phone and tried to call for help, but all the signals around had disappeared, and he couldn't make a call at all.

From afar, there seemed to be the sound of footsteps approaching them. The few people held their breaths. Shen Nanyi could even clearly hear her own heartbeat.

It was obvious that the other side was after her. No matter who they were, if she was captured, her situation would definitely not be good. Naturally, Shen Nanyi was nervous at this time.

Fortunately, the footsteps stopped some distance away from them and then walked in another direction.

Taking advantage of this moment, the bodyguard quickly carried Shen Nanyi on his back and walked in another direction. If he remembered correctly, that was the national highway.

Even though Singapore was a country where gun ownership was legal, no one would dare to kidnap someone openly on the national highway.

Once someone was kidnapped on the national highway, it would be an affront to the dignity of the whole country. Unless it was absolutely necessary, such a situation would not occur.

Without a signal or external support, the national highway was their closest escape route.

Shen Nanyi on the bodyguard's back didn't try to be brave and say that she could walk by herself. She obediently lay on the bodyguard's shoulder and tightly held on.

It seemed that they were about to reach the national highway, and the journey had been surprisingly smooth. The bodyguards were a bit puzzled.

Judging from the other side's previous methods, they were clearly well - prepared. How could they let them go so easily?

But they didn't have time to think too much. They could only head towards the national highway. Just as they were about to reach it, a deep pit suddenly appeared in front of them.

The pit was about one person deep. Judging from the soil, it should have been dug recently. If they went down, the people in the high - ground would definitely notice them immediately.

Looking at the long gully, the bodyguards knew that it was impossible to reach the national highway from this road.

The other side had really gone to great lengths to dig such a large pit. There must be a sniper in the high - ground.

Making a prompt decision, the few people quickly retreated and hid back in the bush, thinking about a countermeasure.

When the sound of footsteps behind them sounded again, Shen Nanyi held her breath and didn't move.

Just as the footsteps were about to get closer, the previously injured bodyguard suddenly rushed out and ran in another direction.

While running away, the bodyguard deliberately shook the surrounding bushes to make noise, attracting the attention of those people.

The footsteps that were originally about to reach Shen Nanyi's side changed direction and chased after the injured bodyguard.

Shen Nanyi hadn't said much, but it didn't mean that she was in a good mood. Watching others risk their lives to save her, it was a bad feeling for Shen Nanyi.

But what she had to do now was to try her best to protect herself. If she was captured, it would really hurt those who had sacrificed for her.

It was already evening. The wind blowing around made Shen Nanyi's face ache. Shen Nanyi squatted there, her hands and feet were numb and she had no feeling at all, but she didn't know what to do.

Maybe realizing that dragging things out was unfavorable for them, the number of people searching on the other side significantly increased, and the sound of footsteps became more and more dense.

Several times when the people were about to find Shen Nanyi, the bodyguard beside her would lead the other people away. By now, there was only one bodyguard left beside Shen Nanyi.

Hearing the approaching footsteps again, the only remaining bodyguard had made all the preparations and was about to rush out to buy some more time for Shen Nanyi.

Shen Nanyi, who hadn't said much all this time, grabbed the bodyguard and shook her head at him.

She had no self - protection ability. If there was no one to protect her, even if she could divert others' attention for a short time, she would still be discovered in the end. Instead of that, it was better for the two of them to stay together.

Looking into Shen Nanyi's eyes, the bodyguard seemed to understand what she meant and continued to squat there.

However, if you looked closely, you could see that the bodyguard's squatting position was a bit different from Shen Nanyi's. He was directly in front of Shen Nanyi.

"Don't struggle later." He quietly wrote a few words on the ground, and Shen Nanyi quickly wiped them off.

She had figured it out now. Since the other side wanted to capture her, they must have a use for her. She shouldn't be in any immediate danger.

The bodyguard was first puzzled, then he nodded. From this little girl's performance recently, somehow he felt that he should trust this young girl in front of him.

The footsteps were getting closer, and Shen Nanyi's heart was beating faster and faster.

Just as the people were about to come over, Shen Nanyi couldn't help but take a half - step back. Suddenly, she felt a force, and then she and the bodyguard fell into a pit beside them.
