Chapter 782 Speed of Life and Death: Lu Jingchen's Rescue
Lu Jingchen, who usually showed a gentle side in front of Jiang Ciyou, was like a cheetah that had been dormant for a long time and suddenly awakened, exuding a frightening and fierce aura. When he caught a hint of Jiang Ciyou's husband's conspiracy from his carefully laid out intelligence network, the string called "care" in his heart was instantly tightened to the extreme, as if it would break in the next second.
He knew that Jiang Ciyou was in a more dangerous situation than ever before. Her business difficulties were like thorns, and every step forward was accompanied by bloody pain. The emotional entanglement made her exhausted, like a lonely boat in the stormy waves, drifting unsteadily. Now, the crazy husband actually tried to use the most extreme way - hiring a killer to completely wipe her out from this world, which Lu Jingchen absolutely could not tolerate.
All kinds of dangerous scenes that Jiang Ciyou might encounter flashed through his mind, and Lu Jingchen's eyes instantly became cold as ice, as if they could freeze the air around him. His slender and powerful fingers tightly grasped the phone, his knuckles turned white due to the force, and he almost crushed the phone. The moment the call was connected, he issued one command after another in a low and unquestionable voice, with unprecedented urgency and determination in his voice: "A Ming, mobilize all our elite personnel in the South District, bring the most advanced equipment, and gather at the headquarters within five minutes! A Qiang, go check Jiang Ciyou's recent whereabouts, contact all people around her who may know the clues, and be sure to lock her location in the shortest time! Also, notify the technical team, be on standby at any time, and be ready to crack all possible electronic surveillance obstacles!"
Every word that came out of his mouth was full of force, like a heavy hammer hitting the heart of the caller, making them dare not slack off. And after hanging up the phone, Lu Jingchen almost ran to the underground garage. His steps were quick and firm, and the crisp sound of his leather shoes hitting the ground echoed in the empty corridor, like a countdown drumbeat in a race against death.
In the garage, his cool black supercar was like a beast ready to go, quietly waiting for its owner to drive it. Lu Jingchen suddenly opened the car door, sat in the driver's seat with a nimble figure, and held the steering wheel tightly with both hands. The leather material on the steering wheel was slightly soaked by the sweat from his palms. He took a deep breath, trying to calm his manic heart a little, but the anxiety in his eyes was like a blazing fire, burning more and more.
As the engine roared, the supercar sped out like an arrow from a bow, and the friction between the tires and the ground made a piercing scream, leaving a black mark in the air. Lu Jingchen stepped on the accelerator to the bottom, and the speedometer needle soared wildly. The scenery outside the window passed by like lightning, blurring into a piece of light and shadow. His eyes were fixed on the road ahead, as if he wanted to use his eyes to penetrate all obstacles and find Jiang Ciyou directly.
Along the way, he kept communicating with his men through the car's communication equipment: "Have you found any clues? Where might she go? Quick! Quicker!" His voice trembled slightly because of anxiety, and his usual calmness and composure had long since disappeared. Every time he asked without getting a definite answer, his heart felt like it was being tightly grasped by an invisible hand. He knew that with every second that passed, Jiang Ciyou would face more danger, which made him extremely anxious and he wished he could grow wings and fly to her side immediately.
When the car approached the target area, Lu Jingchen saw several suspicious people wandering around an abandoned factory from a distance. His heart sank suddenly, and the strong premonition became more and more certain - Jiang Ciyou was very likely inside. Without any hesitation, he quickly drove the car to a hidden corner and stopped, then whispered into the communicator: "The target appears, prepare for action. Listen to my command, make sure to hit it in one shot, and don't let them have the chance to sound the alarm."
At this moment, Lu Jingchen was like a general about to go to the battlefield, exuding a terrifying majesty. He scanned the surrounding environment with a cold look, observing the enemy's every move, and quickly formulated a battle plan in his mind. He knew that this operation could not afford any mistakes. If he was not careful, Jiang Ciyou might fall into an irretrievable situation.
After confirming that his men were in place, Lu Jingchen took the lead. He flashed out from the shadows like a ghost, and his figure was as fast as lightning, quietly approaching the guard closest to him. Before the guard had time to react, Lu Jingchen had already come behind him, swung out with his right hand, and a sharp knife accurately chopped the guard's neck. The guard didn't even have time to utter a muffled groan before he fell limply.
After dealing with the first target, Lu Jingchen did not pause at all, and his eyes quickly locked onto the next enemy. Like a hunter in the dark night, he moved freely around the periphery of the abandoned factory, using the surrounding debris as cover to quietly approach the guards. Every time he attacked, he was determined to kill, and his movements were clean and neat, without any delay.
Soon, the guards outside the factory were almost cleared by him and his men. Lu Jingchen was breathing heavily, his hair was soaked with sweat, and a few strands of hair stuck to his stern face, but his eyes were still as sharp as an eagle. He knew that this was only the first step, and the real challenge was still inside the factory. Jiang Ciyou's life and death were uncertain, and her safety was like a huge rock, weighing heavily on his heart, making him dare not stop for a moment.
He approached the factory gate cautiously, taking every step with extreme caution, fearing to alert the enemies hiding inside. The factory was dimly lit, filled with a pungent stench, and piled with debris, as if it were an abandoned ghost town. Lu Jingchen's eyes were like torches, not missing any corner. His heartbeat was particularly clear in this silent environment, and every beat seemed to be shouting Jiang Ciyou's name.
He walked slowly along the wall, holding a special pistol tightly in his hand, which was his last guarantee. Although he was very skilled, he dared not be careless in the face of unknown dangers. Suddenly, there was a slight sound of footsteps in front of him. Lu Jingchen quickly turned sideways and hid behind a pillar, holding his breath, his eyes fixed on the direction where the sound came from. A man who looked like a killer came over with a dagger in his hand, looking around vigilantly. Lu Jingchen waited for the best opportunity. At the moment when the man passed by the pillar, he suddenly stretched out his foot and tripped the other party to the ground. At the same time, he quickly pressed the gun in his hand against the man's temple and shouted in a low voice: "Where is Jiang Ciyou? Speak!"
The killer's eyes widened in horror, and just as he was about to open his mouth to shout, Lu Jingchen was quick and punched him in the chin, blocking his voice. Blood flowed from the corners of the killer's mouth, and his eyes were full of fear and unwillingness, but under Lu Jingchen's cold gaze, he finally gave in and pointed his shaking hands in a direction deep in the factory.
Lu Jingchen's heart tightened, and he ran in the direction pointed by the killer. His steps were hurried and flustered, which was a state he had never been in before. In the past, no matter what kind of difficulties he faced, he could always stay calm, but at this moment, Jiang Ciyou's safety made him lose his composure. He prayed silently in his heart, hoping that he could make it in time, and that Jiang Ciyou was still safe.
The deeper into the factory, the darker the light became, and the stronger the stench became. Lu Jingchen endured the discomfort and quickened his pace. He had only one belief in his heart: to find Jiang Ciyou and protect her. Even if it meant making the whole world his enemy, he would do it.
Finally, in a remote corner, he saw a pile of old boxes. For some reason, his intuition told him that Jiang Ciyou was there. He slowly approached, his heart pounding like thunder, and every step he took felt like he had used up all his strength. When he walked around the box and saw the figure curled up in the corner, shivering, his heart instantly tightened.
At that moment, Lu Jingchen knew that he had found the most important person in his life. He secretly vowed that no matter how many difficulties and obstacles there were in the future, he would never let Jiang Ciyou suffer the slightest harm. He wanted to be her safe haven, her guardian angel, and use his life to make up for all the suffering she had suffered.
At this moment, the coldness in Lu Jingchen's eyes faded, replaced by endless tenderness and determination. He gently walked to Jiang Ciyou, squatted down, stretched out his hand, wanted to hold her in his arms and give her the warmest comfort. He knew that this thrilling rescue was just a twist in their lives, but as long as they walked hand in hand, nothing could stop them from moving towards a happy future.
