Reborn as a True Heiress and Becomes a Boss

Chapter 268 Gunfight (Part 2)
Having a capable son-in-law is also very useful. Gu Rongrong hesitated for a moment and then nodded, saying, "I'll bring it up another time when I have the chance."

Everyone nodded; this matter needed to be handled step by step.

"Old He, go find some people and form a team! Repair Rongrong's mental damage as soon as possible," Gu Xiyuan instructed Old He.

"Okay," Old He replied and said goodbye to the Gu family.

Everyone felt a sense of heaviness. The enemy was in the shadows, while they were in the open. Who could possibly have attacked Gu Rongrong so stealthily?
Gu Xiyuan instructed his two sons to investigate secretly.

Time flies, and three days have passed in the blink of an eye. Gu Tangtang ran to Fan Meini's class. There was no evening self-study today, so she went with Fan Meini to find Yang Nianqing.

"Nini!" Gu Tangtang waved frantically at the door of Fan Meini's classroom.

Fan Meini glanced at her watch. It had only been two minutes since get out of class ended. Gu Tangtang's class was three floors away from theirs. How did she get here so quickly?

Kong Fu glanced at the doorway and asked in confusion, "Is that Gu Tangtang? When did you two become so close?"

Fan Meini quickly packed her things and said, "It's only been a few days. She's my sister-in-law's younger sister."

"Oh?" Kong Fu nodded, becoming even more curious about her sister-in-law, Fan Meini.

"I'm leaving now! Bye-bye!" Fan Meini said goodbye to Ruji and hurriedly ran towards Gu Tangtang.

The two walked out of the school gate hand in hand.

"Let's go to your house quickly," Gu Tangtang suggested, preparing to call the driver to pick them up.

"Hey, wait a minute, my sister-in-law isn't home." Fan Meini quickly stopped her.

"Hmm?" Gu Tangtang was a little confused. She had been visiting Fan Meini's house every day for the past few days and had noticed how much her brother-in-law, Fan Ruichen, cared for her cousin, Yang Nianqing. He treated her like a precious gem. Yesterday, she heard that Fan Ruichen had to handle work at the company. How could he bear to let her cousin go out alone? Could it be that her cousin was at Fan Ruichen's company?

Gu Tangtang guessed correctly; Yang Nianqing was indeed in Fan Ruichen's office, but Fan Ruichen was busy with work and had no time to pay attention to her. She was bored there, so after talking to Fan Ruichen, she left with Mo Mo and Guan Yu.

Although Fan Ruichen was a little worried, Guan Yu was highly skilled in martial arts, Mo Mo was a demon, and Qing Qing was also very powerful, so nothing should happen to her. He also needed to give her some space, so after instructing Yang Nianqing, Mo Mo, and Guan Yu, Fan Ruichen agreed to let them go out.

Guan Yu and Mo Mo exchanged a glance, then helplessly shrugged. Fan Ruichen was just too nervous.

After the group left the Shengshi Group building, Guan Yu and Mo Mo both looked at Yang Nianqing.

"Miss Qing, where are we going now?" Guan Yu asked curiously.

Having spent the last bit of time drawing talismans at home, Yang Nianqing felt quite bored. After being in Kyoto for so long, she inquired about the area and said, "Let's set up a stall at Watanabe Bridge."

Huh? Setting up a stall? Guan Yu and Mo Mo looked at each other in surprise. They came to Kyoto and had to set up a stall?

Yang Nianqing had inquired and found that Watanabe Bridge is a major scenic spot in Kyoto. It is close to a famous food street in Kyoto, so there are many stalls there, including fortune-telling stalls. It is also a popular street in Kyoto.

She felt quite bored lately, so going out for a stroll wouldn't be a bad idea, since she might not be able to relax like this for a while.

So the three of them set off for Watanabe Bridge.

Fan Meini had sent a message to Yang Nianqing beforehand, so she knew that Yang Nianqing was not at home or with her brother. Now the two of them were preparing to go to Watanabe Bridge to find Yang Nianqing.

Gu Tangtang instructed the driver to go to the Watanabe Bridge where Yang Nianqing and the others were.

Everything was normal the whole way, but when we drove onto a slightly more secluded mountain road, something felt off; it seemed a bit too quiet.

Before the group could realize something was wrong, they suddenly heard loud gunfire.

Gunshots? How could there be gunshots?

"Boom!!!"

A car sped past Gu Tangtang and the others, and then a bullet pierced the windshield in front of them. The driver jerked his head to the side, and Gu Tangtang screamed and reflexively tilted her head as well. With a "thud," the bullet lodged in the back of the seat next to Gu Tangtang's head.

Gu Tangtang stared in horror at the still-smoking bullet hole. If she had been a second slower to turn her head, the bullet would have gone straight into her head!

What's going on? How did we get into a gunfight?
Their car's windshield was half shattered, and a strong wind rushed into the car, making it difficult to breathe. The driver made a quick decision and pulled over to the side of the road. Then several other cars sped away.

"Ladies, lie down quickly!" the driver hurriedly reminded them, and then he quickly lay down himself.

Upon hearing this, Gu Tangtang and Fan Meini quickly ducked under their seats. Sure enough, the next second they heard the clanging sound of bullets hitting the car body.

The group could even feel the impact of the bullets; it was indeed terrifying.

Fortunately, their car was expensive and had excellent bulletproof capabilities. Although they could feel the impact of the bullets, they did not penetrate the car body, so they were safe for the time being.

But the prerequisite is that those armed people do not stop or walk towards them.

But not long after, the gunfire stopped, and the three of them heard the sound of brakes.

Someone stopped!

Everyone felt their hearts were pounding in their throats. Fan Meini raised her head slightly, looking outside warily, secretly channeling her supernatural power into her hands, ready to fight if necessary!

"Are you alright?" a man's voice came from inside.

The three of them looked up at the same time and saw a man in a police uniform. At that moment, another policeman walked over, holding a gun and warily looking around. "How are you? Are you hurt?"

The group breathed a sigh of relief; it was the police who had arrived, so they should be safe.

"We're fine, we're not injured," Fan Meini said, withdrawing her supernatural powers and standing up.

The police reached out to open Gu Tangtang's car door, but the door was already deformed from being hit. The police knocked on it several times before they were able to open the deformed door.

"Get out quickly!" the police shouted hurriedly. They didn't know if the assassins would come back, but it was very dangerous to stay here. The police had blocked the road, but a citizen's car still managed to get in.

Several people got out of the car one after another, and a black car that was clearly not from the police station stopped. The police officer was startled and quickly said, "Get out of the way!" As he spoke, he grabbed Gu Tangtang, who was closest to him, and hid behind the police.

Fan Meini and another police officer, along with the driver, quickly moved aside.

Sure enough, the next second bullets clattered and struck where they had been standing, deforming the car body.

A police officer, head bowed and dodging bullets, muttered, "Are these assassins insane? Why are they engaging us in such a high-profile, large-scale battle?"

"It's understandable that they're furious. Their names are all on file, so they can't escape even if they want to. But this operation was all done in secret, so how come they seem to have had a premonition?" another officer replied. If it weren't for that, things wouldn't have turned out this way today. Although they temporarily changed commanders, the new commander is a professional and much more capable than the original commander. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to dismantle that murderous organization so quickly.

Commander Qin Zifeng is a renowned elite soldier in the military! He is absolutely loyal to the country, so it's impossible that the commander leaked the operation. The most likely explanation is that there is a traitor within their ranks. After this operation, everyone involved will probably be investigated, but only if they leave here alive.

The police officer glanced at Gu Tangtang, Fan Meini, and their driver, his eyes showing seriousness. No matter what, these citizens were innocent, and they had to be taken to a safe place first.

Gu Tangtang was still a little shaken. This was the first time she had ever encountered such a scene, and it was completely different from what she had seen on TV! All she could feel was bullets whizzing past her head, her heart racing, and her scalp tingling.

Fan Meini felt similarly, but her situation was slightly better than Gu Tangtang's. The Fan family had started out in the underworld, and although Fan Meini had never experienced a gunfight like this before, marksmanship was something the Fan family had to know! Now, without a gun, she had no way to fight back.

The policeman crouching next to Fan Meini seized the opportunity and shot one of the assassins in the passenger seat dead. But the next moment, his arm was wounded by another assassin, and his pistol flew out of his hand and went far away!
"It happened!"

Fan Meini glanced at the location of the gun. She figured she could quickly pick it up from there and then roll over to hide behind the car they had just left in. Fan Meini nodded.

Gu Tangtang knew exactly what she was up to at a glance and grabbed her, "Holy crap! What are you trying to do! Are you out of your mind?"

Fan Meini glanced anxiously at the gun, then at the killers in the car. They were all unarmed, and one of the policemen was injured. If they didn't find a way out, they might all perish here.

With a loud bang, the car window above their heads shattered, covering them completely.

The other party switched to a gun with a shorter range and greater lethality, and shattered the bulletproof glass of the police car with just one shot.

If we don't hurry, it will really be too late!

Fan Meini patted Gu Tangtang's hand and said, "Don't be afraid! How could I, the eldest daughter of the Fan family, die here!" As she spoke, Fan Meini broke free from Gu Tangtang's hand, rolled on the ground, quickly picked up the gun, and hid behind the car.

Fan Meini's movements indeed attracted the attention of the assassins, who all opened fire on her.

Everyone held their breath; even the two policemen hadn't expected Fan Meini to be so bold.

Fan Meini dodged quickly, and the bullet didn't hit her.

The moment Fan Meini got her hands on the gun, her eyes changed. She touched the police gun in her hand, quickly loaded and unloaded the bullets, cocked the gun, familiarized herself with it, took a deep breath, and aimed at the assassin in the black car through the shattered glass.

"Boom!"

With a sharp look in her eyes, Fan Meini fired two shots in quick succession, instantly wounding the two assassins opposite her. They clutched their shoulders, unable to fire. To prevent them from retaliating, Fan Meini fired two more shots, wounding their other shoulders as well. But there was still one person inside the car!
Fan Meini moved her gun towards the assassin and immediately fired a shot!
The man suddenly leaned back, and the bullet missed him but struck the pendant swinging in front of him, sending it flying. The assassin tried to get up and retaliate, but then he saw a gun pointed at him.

"Don't move!" the newcomer shouted.

It turned out that the police had unknowingly circled around to their backs, and then another siren blared.

The police rescue team had arrived and confirmed that the killers had been captured. Fan Meini breathed a sigh of relief and slumped to the ground, wiping the sweat from her forehead with lingering fear. It was her first time firing a gun in such a dangerous situation, and it was indeed quite different from shooting at the shooting range.

"Nini!" Gu Tangtang rushed over and hugged her. "You scared me to death, you brat! Aren't you crazy? You dare to act tough in a situation like this?"

Fan Meini smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? I, Fan Meini, am a famous sharpshooter in the shooting club. I never miss a shot! No problem!" Fan Meini gave her a thumbs up.

Gu Tangtang: "………………"

Seeing the other person's hands trembling involuntarily, Gu Tangtang refrained from exposing her; this silly girl was also terrified today.

After a moment of silence, Fan Meini gave an awkward laugh, "Um, Tangtang, can you help me up? My legs are weak!"

"Sigh!" Gu Tangtang sighed and helped Fan Meini up, dragging and carrying her.

Next, the police handled the scene, and Fan Meini and the others were taken to the police station to give statements and assist in the investigation.

After a long time, the road blockade was lifted, and everything returned to calm and normal.

A man walked down the mountain, crossed the sidewalk, and prepared to hail a taxi on the other side. A soft light flashed in the flower bed. The man frowned and bent down to take a look. It was a white jade pendant, shaped like an animal. It was snow-white all over, with a long, slanted head, resembling a lion, and its limbs had fire patterns.

"Is this the Bai Ze divine beast?" It wards off evil spirits and is also a fine piece of ancient jade. It's a good omen and doesn't look cheap. How did it end up here?
The man looked around, but there was no one there, not even a security camera nearby, and he had no idea who had fallen there.

The man tossed the pendant aside, exclaiming, "This is what you call good luck! You can't stop it!" He'd gotten a valuable white jade pendant for free; what great luck!

The phone rang, and the man took it out to look at it. The caller ID made him frown involuntarily. "Tsk! How annoying!"

It's annoying, but business still has to be done.

The man answered the phone, and the other party immediately launched into a barrage of questions and insults.

What exactly is going on with your Qingxuan Sect?! Can you even resolve this?!

[If you can't solve it, you should have said so earlier! Why are you dragging this out?! That woman is haunting my dreams every day! You have to help me beat her to ashes!]

She's a demon! She's got lives on her hands!

Killing him was your duty!

[Where have you been? You took ten million from me! You need to get rid of her right now!]

The man on the other end of the phone sounded hysterical, clearly indicating he had mental problems.

I've had a really bad cold these past couple of days, I've been coughing non-stop and my whole body aches terribly. I'll try my best to keep updating, please understand. Thank you all for your continued support, love you all, sending you love.
