Chapter 1791: Chapter 1791: You Can Only Do It With Me!

In the sunlight, I could only see the cold gleam of firearms.

Bam—

Another shot fired, aimed with precision.

If it weren’t for Nan Yi’s speed, he’d probably have been shot in the head by now!

Nan Yi, burning with rage, fiercely gazed at the opposite mountaintop.

Someone dared to shoot from the shadows!

At this moment, he couldn’t bother about Xia Weibao. With a flicker, Nan Yi vanished before my eyes, sprinting toward the opposite peak.

Xia Weibao glanced at Nan Yi running downhill, then at the mountaintop across.

She really wanted to fly over using qinggong; it would be much faster than running down the hill and climbing up.

But things like qinggong shouldn’t be shown publicly, as she didn’t want certain agencies to whisk her away for research.

So Xia Weibao also started running downhill.

By the time she ran down and reached the opposite mountaintop, it was deserted.

There were messy footprints on the ground, one large, one small. The larger one should be Nan Yi’s, the smaller one should belong to a woman.

Just as Xia Weibao was about to give chase, her phone rang.

Seeing it was a call from Lu Hualiang, she felt inexplicably guilty.

"Hey, darling."

Hearing this deliberately ingratiating tone, Director Lu’s face darkened.

Definitely something suspicious!

"Where are you?"

"I’m on a mountain in the suburbs, gathering herbs for Third Uncle."

"Just gathering herbs?"

"Yeah, if not gathering herbs, I might as well herd sheep up here, right?"

"If you’re just gathering herbs, why do you feel guilty?"

"I’m not guilty." Her Majesty the Empress looked earnestly serious.

Lu Hualiang sneered, "Honey, maybe you haven’t noticed. You only call me darling sweetly when you’ve done something wrong."

Xia Weibao, "..."

Darn it, why didn’t she even know!

Now caught, she innocently rubbed her nose, "I really was just gathering herbs..."

Just happened to defend myself a bit.

"Did you go out with Nan Yi?"

"..." Xia Weibao, "Yes, I happened to meet him, wanted to lure him out, then deal with him."

From the phone came a man’s roar, "You can only deal with me!!!"

Xia Weibao, ears tingling from the shout, "..."

Goodness, I meant deal with as in kill!

She didn’t even want to ridicule him.

"I meant kill! By the way, did you send someone to secretly follow me?"

"No, why ask that?"

He didn’t know she’d go out, given her temper, no one in the Xia family dared provoke her!

Hearing reports upon return that she went out with Nan Yi nearly scared him to death.

Xia Weibao scratched her head, this was odd, who was the person who fired?

After recounting the recent events, Lu Hualiang listened with unease.

He wished he could fly to her side immediately.

Nan Yi’s reputation on the street was fearsome; anyone daring to shoot at him was definitely not simple. Though Xia Weibao could fight well, she knew little about the complexities of this world, and it was too dangerous outside!

Xia Weibao didn’t want him to travel back and forth. She picked the herbs and went back.

As for Nan Yi, he didn’t return until evening.

Heard he came back with a sullen face, apparently without capturing anyone.

Xia Weibao deliberately took on Xia Chuyan’s name to peek at the Southern Group’s courtyard, and seeing Nan Yi return all blackened from an explosion, she laughed out loud on the spot.

"Mr. Nan, did you get blown up like a roast duck?"

Nan Yi, "..." Roast duck...

"What are you here for."

"Isn’t your Southern Group’s dining managed by my second sister? She was unavailable today, so I came to deliver some roast duck for you."
