Li Jing was carrying a travel bag and walking chicly on a road in the suburbs.
After being fired by Tang Xiaobao, she returned to the Cao family.
She was given a long leave.
Although Cao Jianguo didn't say it explicitly, she understood the meaning behind his words.
So she went on a trip.
Cao Jianguo actually gave him a card, but she refused.
Her work for the Cao family has never been about monetary rewards.
This life was given to the Cao family, so doing things for the Cao family is a matter of course.
A long time ago, she had no feeling for life, no hope, no happiness, no family affection, no friendship, nothing.
Like a walking corpse, like a dog raised by the Cao family.
But she had no choice, because she was a person with a clear sense of grudges at heart. She remembered more clearly one morning twenty years ago, when she was lying on the street with a fever of 39 degrees. She had not eaten for two days, it was snowing heavily, and pedestrians were walking around.
She walked past, plucking one thing after another, and no one stopped to ask her if she was hungry.
At that time, she despaired of the world. At that time, she thought that as long as someone could give her a bite of food and allow her to survive, she would be willing to give everything, including her body and life.
Just when she was desperately preparing to die, a car stopped and a young man carried her into the car. She still remembers the compassion in the man's eyes, which was very light, but after so many years,
That image was still deeply imprinted in her mind.
That young man is Cao Jianguo.
Later, her illness recovered, and she met Cao Ying. At the Cao family's old house, Cao Ying always gave her the best things and would secretly buy her delicious and fun things.
She received rigorous training and education, and finally joined the army. When she came out again, she became a sword in Cao Jianguo's hand.
She was assigned to Shenlong Pharmaceutical and became Shen Mengyao's assistant and bodyguard.
When she was a child, Cao Ying made her feel cared for, and with more contact with Shen Mengyao, Li Jing's heart softened again.
Shen Mengyao was very kind to her, as close as a sister.
The company's core secrets have never been deliberately hidden from her.
Because of this, she was able to successfully complete the tasks assigned by Cao Jianguo.
But day by day, Li Jing was suffering inside.
If not, with her ability, how could Shen Mengyao notice that something was wrong with her.
When she came out of Shenlong Pharmaceutical, Li Jing thought she was finally free.
But after traveling for so long, her heart has never been truly peaceful.
She changed her mobile phone number. This was Cao Jianguo's wish, and she wanted to change it herself.
After traveling most of China, Li Jing still finds it difficult to truly let go.
Coming out of the town, this road leads to nowhere.
In the distance, there are some tile-roofed houses built in the 1970s and 1980s. They are very dilapidated and scattered in the countryside.
On both sides of the road, there are patches of corn stalks, a vast expanse of green that stretches as far as the eye can see, all the way to the foot of the mountain in the distance.
Swinging her travel bag behind her, Li Jing's skin was a little darkened, as if she had left traces of time after all the vicissitudes of life.
Suddenly, the roar of a car engine came from behind.
Li Jing turned her head and took a look.
An off-road vehicle without a license plate, and several people could be vaguely seen sitting in the vehicle.
The off-road vehicle didn't honk its horn, didn't drive very fast, and came slowly.
Li Jing turned back, moved to the side, and continued walking forward.
She walked aimlessly until the roar behind her suddenly became frantic.
Her face suddenly changed, her brows furrowed, and Li Jing turned around suddenly.
But it's too late.
She only had time to see the arrogant and cruel smiles on the faces of the two men in the cab.
Li Jing has experienced life and death, no, she has experienced too many life and death, so she can tell some problems from the other person's expression.
For example, the opponent must be a desperado.
For example, the other party has received professional training like her.
For example, the other party came to kill her.
The off-road vehicle hit hard.
Bang!
Although Li Jing had dodged quickly, she still did not completely dodge, and her body was knocked away.
Then, she fell heavily into the ditch on the roadside.
The travel bag was thrown next to her.
The ditch is not deep, only about half a meter high.
The off-road vehicle screeched to the brakes, and four people jumped out of the vehicle, each with a gun in their hand.
Four guns were pointed at Li Jing together.
Li Jing's body suddenly flew up, grabbed her travel bag, ran into the cornfield on the side, and fled away quickly.
Several gunshots were heard behind him.
The four men looked at each other and chased each other together.
They cooperated tacitly and moved forward from different angles.
Soon, gunshots were heard from time to time in the cornfield.
Half an hour later, they passed through the cornfield.
At the end of the cornfield, there is a small river.
Of the four men, only three could stand at this time.
The other one was lying on the ground with a streak of blood on his neck. He was clutching his throat, but he was already dead.
During the previous tracking process, Li Jing was injured, and one of the four killers was also killed by Li Jing.
A lot of blood was flowing on the river ahead.
Li Jing escaped.
"What should I do?" someone asked.
The leader of the killer flashed a fierce light in his eyes and said: "Deal with the third child as soon as possible and then notify others. I believe she will not hide too far."
Someone said: "Yes, she was shot by me too. It seems she escaped from the river. Let's search along the river bank and we should be able to find her soon."
Downstream of the river, both sides of the river are covered with reeds.
Li Jing was lying in a patch of reeds at this time, with the lower half of her body still soaked in the water. The blood soaked the river water until it turned red, and blood would emerge from time to time.
She lay there quietly, fainting, but her travel bag was slung across her shoulder.
A group of swimming fish swam over smelling the smell of blood and swam next to Li Jing's legs.
The river breeze blows and the coolness is strong.
With a jolt, Li Jing woke up.
She slowly opened her eyes, didn't move at first, rolled her eyes, and then listened.
It's quiet all around.
It took a full two minutes before Li Jing started to move.
She crawled to the shore. Her clothes were soaked and her right leg was still bleeding. There was a gunshot wound there.
He was bleeding from his shoulder, where he had also been shot.
Just climbing up from the river, Li Jing was already exhausted, her forehead was covered with sweat, and her body was shaking slightly. She lay down behind a stone, shivering in pain.
After resting for a moment, Li Jing looked around.
There was a tile-roofed house a thousand meters away, hidden in a forest, faintly, it was almost dusk, but there was no sound of people there, it didn't look like someone was living there.
Not far away, there is a mottled stone bridge across the river. The bridge is covered with moss. The bridge is very simple and ancient, but full of historical flavor. (To be continued)
