Stunned by this scene, the other people finally returned to their senses and hurriedly fired at the tail of the car.
However, it was too late.
The black Buick pulled steadily into the road amid a jumble of gunfire, and as the traffic faded out of sight—
At this moment, the fat executive finally found a backup electric light to illuminate the lobby, but he only saw Shadow’s ashen face and the mess on the ground.
“Are… are you alright?”
He carefully went forward tomfort him.
Shadow’s head buzzed and his face was ashen. He kicked the trash can beside him and panted heavily. His mind went blank!
He had never expected this oume.
He was just a little bit away from catching Qiao Nian. Just a little bit… Heuld already feel that he had forced her into arner.
Just give him another minute—no, ten snds—and heuld have caught her!
But in the blink of an eye, she was saved.
Shadow did not know how to explain this to Nie Qingru. He felt that he had made a big mistake this time, so big that heuldn’t accept it.
…
Ten minutes later, Nie Qingru’s car stopped outside the bank building.
Leaving the car, she saw the mess outside and the dejected security guards cleaning up the mess…
She walked in quickly but did not see Shadow. However, she had a bad feeling and vaguely realized that things might be out of herntrol.
Her eyes darkened when she finally found Shadow but saw no trace of that evil creature. She waved her hand and ordered, “Follow me!”
Shadow left the paperwork to someone else and followed her.
Nie Qingru quickly walked in front without stopping.
She did not even have the patience to find a room and turned into the emergencyrridor.
Shadow did not dare to delay and followed.
As soon as he entered, the person walking in front suddenly turned around and slapped him hard, causing his head to tilt heavily to the right.
Shadow did not even dare to touch his face. He stood there with his hands by his side, feeling the numbness on half of his face. He spat out a mouthful of blood and apologized in a low voice. “I’m sorry, Empress.”
Nie Qingru prided herself on being noble and rarely took action personally. This time, sheuld notntrol her emotions and slapped him.
As if looking at a dead person, she lowered her head and asked fiercely, “Where is she?!”
“She ran away.” Shadow lowered his head. He did not even dare to look at her as a fishy taste spread from his throat.
Nie Qingru’s slap was too heavy. His right ear was still buzzing, and he was listening to her questions with his left ear.
However, Shadow did not resent Nie Qingru for slapping him. This time, he let down the Empress’ trust by letting Qiao Nian escape. He deserved to die.
“It’s my mistake this time. I have nothing to refute. You can punish me however you want. Even if you want my life… I have nomplaints!”
Nie Qingru’s anger receded and she calmed down after hearing his words. She glanced at him as if she was looking at a dog. “I didn’t save you back then to let you die in front of me. If you wanted to die, you shouldn’t have begged me to save you back then.”
Shadow quickly raised his head. “But I didn’tmplete your mission…”
“That’s enough!” Nie Qingru interrupted him. Her expression was still ugly, but at least she did not losentrol like before. She turned away and expressionlessly asked, “Do you know who saved her?”
