Lian Du let out a muffled snort of cold laughter in his chest: "Leave? Don't even think about it."
"Xu Qian, listen to me, come with me, at least you won't die."
He was conflicted inside. He knew Xu Qian was the one who destroyed the base, an enemy of the X Group.
But he couldn't bear to see her die.
He didn't want her to die.
As soon as Hui Feichi arrived, he saw two planes in the sky "chatting." He frowned and asked, "Weren't you told to shoot them down?"
The leader lowered his head and said, "Young Master Lian ordered us to persuade them to surrender personally."
"Absurd!"
He grabbed the intercom and shouted, "Lian Du, get back here immediately, or I'll have you bombed too!"
Lian Du ignored him. After a moment of thought, he said, "Xu Qian, don't move."
Since she was unwilling to open her heart, he would knock on the door himself.
Even if Xu Qian wanted to move, she couldn't. If it came to it, she'd retreat into her space, as she couldn't rely on Lian Du.
After Lian Du set the autopilot, the military aircraft's canopy automatically lifted.
The man stood up in the cockpit, staggering slightly from the cold wind.
He stepped onto the canopy and, from the military aircraft, onto her chopper's roof, step by step.
Xu Qian's pupils contracted to their absolute limit in an instant. She gasped, calling him crazy.
Was there such a person in the world?
The man's face was pale. He knocked on her windshield.
"Open the door."
Xu Qian couldn't hear him speak, but she could guess what he wanted to say.
She truly hadn't expected him to be so reckless!
Even if this wasn't thousands of feet up, it was still dozens of meters high!
He had no safety measures whatsoever!
Falling would only have one outcome.
Being smashed to pieces.
Soon, Xu Qian's expression returned to normal. She leaned back in her seat, her dark eyes devoid of any emotion.
For a moment, she didn't know how best to kill him.
[Ding, system notification: The antagonist is deeply devoted to you. It is recommended to keep him as an assistant.]
Xu Qian paused, then sighed.
The system wouldn't remind her for no reason.
Fine, with him around, at least they wouldn't easily shoot her down.
Perhaps he could even help her.
Xu Qian opened the passenger door, allowing him to climb in.
Lian Du's face lit up with joy. As expected, if he showed his true feelings, she would...
"Xu Qian..."
Xu Qian pursed her lips slightly and said coldly, "Shut up!"
Lian Du obediently closed his mouth, his fox-like eyes narrowing slightly.
Xu Qian strained with all her might to ascend again, but the helicopter remained motionless.
Lian Du glanced at her and said lightly, "You can't pull it up like that. I'll teach you."
The man took over the pilot's seat and manually pulled the helicopter up.
It ascended rapidly.
The people below exchanged glances, unsure whether to attack or not.
"Young Master Hui..."
Hui Feichi's lips were tightly pressed. He raised his hand and massaged his throbbing temple.
"Let him be."
Lian Du had been their companion since childhood; they couldn't possibly kill him over Xu Qian.
Lian Du had always prioritized the interests of the X Group. Normally, he would never side with an outsider.
He hoped Lian Du would consider the group and bring her back.
Before the gates closed, the helicopter shot out through the gap.
The helicopter flew steadily.
Xu Qian hadn't fully recovered. She had been taken away by the enemy?
After flying for nearly 10 minutes, it began to descend.
Lian Du opened the cabin door and jumped out, then circled around to open the pilot's door, intending to carry her down personally.
Xu Qian would not let him carry her.
Her gaze was cold as she looked him up and down, then she jumped off the helicopter herself.
Had her charm reached this point?
