Reborn in the 70s: Pampered by Regiment Commander-Chapter 1233 - 812: Escape (2)
"Screech!"
A sudden brake, Ye Meiru’s head hit the front seat, and stars exploded in front of her eyes... When she raised her head, she found Zuo Hai pointing a gun at the driver, stubbornly staring at the man in the passenger seat.
"You..." Ye Meiru’s face was full of surprise, "How did you do it?"
Zuo Hai glanced at her eagerly: "Meiru, I won’t let you go to that place, you’re my woman, and I definitely won’t let you suffer like that!"
By that time, the man in the passenger seat had already gotten out of the car, and Zuo Hai indifferently glanced at the driver: "Get out!"
The driver obediently lifted his leg out of the car, but just as his foot touched the ground, his body suddenly lunged forward, his head heavily striking Zuo Hai’s head, and swiftly snatched Zuo Hai’s gun.
The driver snorted coldly: "You think you can play at kidnapping?"
The passenger brought over a rope and quickly tied up Zuo Hai, then threw him into the backseat.
By the time Zuo Hai came to his senses, the car had already driven a long distance, and he was tied up and thrown in the back, feeling like his body was about to fall apart, yet the corners of his mouth lifted happily.
An hour later, looking at the three people lying in the car, Zuo Hai smiled blissfully, threw the driver and passenger out, then covered Ye Meiru’s nose with a treated wet towel, and soon, Ye Meiru groggily woke up.
Zuo Hai looked at her as if claiming credit: "Meiru, where do you want to go? I’ll take you."
After a long while, Ye Meiru regained her senses, looking at Zuo Hai somewhat incredulously: "How did you do it?"
"Did you forget what I research? It’s not difficult for me." Zuo Hai scratched his head somewhat bashfully, "But I still need to better my skills so I can protect you."
Ye Meiru glanced at the two men cowering on the ground: "Will they die?"
Zuo Hai shook his head: "No, they’ll wake up automatically in three hours."
"That’s good." Ye Meiru breathed a sigh of relief, "Though I don’t agree with what my grandfather did, I don’t want to kill them, and I don’t want you to be burdened as a murderer."
"Don’t worry, I won’t do anything illegal, I just want to save you, not let you go to your death." Zuo Hai asked again, "Where should we go now?"
"Let’s head back." Hesitating, Ye Meiru looked at him, "Have you been following from the start?"
"Of course not." Zuo Hai started the car, turned around, and continued, "When I called, you were always unavailable, and later, your grandfather finally answered, saying if I need something, I should speak directly to him.
Connecting the dots with past events, I knew you were definitely being punished, I thought they’d sent you abroad again, so I reached out to find out which country.
But I couldn’t find any record of your going abroad, using all my connections, I finally found out your whereabouts and took a shortcut to catch up.
Last night, while y’all were eating, I hid under the car. Meiru, no matter what you decide to do next, I’ll help you.
I, Zuo Hai, have said it, this life I’m committed to you, come hell or high water, whatever you ask, I’ll do my utmost to satisfy you."
"You..." after a pause, Ye Meiru sighed, "Zuo Hai, what you’ve done really moved me, but I don’t deserve it."
"I think you do, in this world, only you warrant this." Zuo Hai’s tone was firm when he said it, moving Ye Meiru, if only for a moment.
Until now, no man has ever treated her so unconditionally, even Zhou Mikang included.
But, it was just a moment, right after, she regained her composure, yet his dedication created a rare sense of guilt in her, and she straightforwardly said: "Zuo Hai, I never truly liked you. Wanting to be with you initially was because I found out your brother and Lin Chuxia were admitted to the same school.
The intention was to have you persuade your brother to deal with Lin Chuxia, but later, learning you couldn’t do that, I cooled off towards you, I believe you sensed it.
I have a poor reputation outside, but it’s not because I like promiscuity, every action was for Zhou Mikang’s sake, with Huang Xinlong, I’m helping Zhou Mikang.
Even though I find Huang Xinlong revolting, for Zhou Mikang’s safety, I forced myself to marry him, become his wife, although Zhou Mikang doesn’t appreciate it, I don’t regret it.
I’ve told you I hate Lin Chuxia, and that’s definitely true, because she indeed robbed me of my happiness, entering 401, gotten involved with Huang Baoquan, all to retaliate against Lin Chuxia.
Unfortunately, it didn’t hurt Lin Chuxia, instead, I’ve lost my own dignity, I admit I love foolishly and without self-respect, injuring myself deeply for so-called love, yet still relishing it.
As such a person, why waste time and affection with me? Especially when I’ve been using you all along, I’m telling you now, not wanting a genuine, good-hearted man to be hurt further.
Zuo Hai, I’m glad I met you, no matter the future, thinking back will always fill me with warmth..." after a pause, she sighed again, "Take me to Capital City, then catch the bus back to the unit yourself, the rest I’ll handle."
