Just as the two bodyguards arrived, they saw a scene that made them want to spew blood.

As expected, those thirty plus people accomplished their mission, with the numbers at their advantage that is. However, the problem now was—not only did they captured Gu Hai, Tong Zhe has also been implicated. The second they saw the rough fist connected with Tong Zhe's stomach, the two bodyguards' face was redesigned to pale palette.

Fuck, they actually made a big mistake! They quickly rushed over while shouting at the top of their lungs: "Don't hit him, don't hit him. He's one of us!!"

Just as Tong Zhe collapsed on Gu Hai, and had yet to stand firmly, he saw the two bodyguards bolting over.

"Vice President, I'm sorry. I gave you the wrong direction earlier."

It didn't take long for Tong Zhe's face to change from pure green to deathly white once he processed those words. Such an unnecessary mistake had inadvertently caused that wretched pain to twist his muscles, and it was only the adrenaline that coursed through his veins which made it possible for him to plant his foot on the ground.

The other bodyguard faced those people and cursed in rage at them. "What were you guys looking at, huh? This is our Vice President. You guys just started fighting without asking clearly?!" Once he finished, he turned to look at Tong Zhe and instantly softened his voice. "Vice President, you must be startled."

Tong Zhe hesitantly replied, "...it's alright."

The bodyguard turned to face those people again, "What are you guys standing there for? Quickly arrest the target! Are you all fucking happy? You struck the person you shouldn't have while the person you should've is still standing there unscathed. What kind of bullshit is this?!"

As those angry words filtered the air, the group of people encircled them again. But, all of a sudden, Gu Hai pulled out a gun from his jacket and pointed the muzzle directly at Tong Zhe's temple.

"Don't come any closer!"

He really knows how to take advantage of the opportunity...Tong Zhe couldn't help but to admire Gu Hai.

"Retreat, retreat..." the bodyguard said as he stared tenaciously at Gu Hai's finger as he incessantly ordered the people surrounding them. "Human life is beyond value. There's no need for anyone to act recklessly!"

Gu Hai was apoplectic with rage as he screamed, "Draw back 30 meters, hurry up!!"

As those people drew back, Gu Hai also pulled Tong Zhe slowly toward the back while carefully keeping an eye out at his surrounding as to avoid a surprise attack.

When they reached the head of the stairs, the group of people's footsteps abruptly came to a stop. But, the second Gu Hai turned, they immediately charged toward them. Seeing that, Gu Hai suddenly open fire—causing the entire airport lobby to sink into chaos. Once the masses started to frantically flee in all directions, that decidedly created the perfect opportunity for Gu Hai and Tong Zhe to make their getaway.

"Over here, over here!" Tong Zhe shouted out to Gu Hai.

Bypassing one lobby after another while keeping their eyes out for an exit, they suddenly saw a group of suspicious people appear ahead of them.

Gu Hai came to a sudden halt, turned to look around and saw a changing room at the side. Then—without saying anything, he tilted his head to the side and signaled to Tong Zhe that he should enter.
