Adopting and Raising the Male Lead and the Villain - Chapter 242

Chapter 242

Gu Yuling continued leaning towards Zhong Yuhuan.

Zhong Yuhuan was slightly surprised at first but quickly reacted. Taking into account the chocolate, she raised her hand and put it on Gu Yuling’s shoulder, saying, “It’s nothing. Don’t worry.”

After she said that, Zhong Yuhuan felt like her action was very boyfriend-like!

Li JInyuan looked at them and said, “I’ll go out to see.”

Huo Chengming hurriedly followed. “I’ll go instead.”

Li Jinyuan paused and not knowing why, he nodded. “Sure, then brother Huo can go. I’ll stay here and protect Huanhuan.”

Wen Yongchen opened his mouth and opened it again, but still closed it in the end.

There was basically no room for him to cut in.

Wen Yongchen slightly lowered his head, hiding his slightly strange gaze.

Like when he went to get water, Huo Chengming returned very quickly. He walked to Zhong Yuhuan’s side, and then turned to the others to say, “The people picking us up are here.”

Everyone was finally completely relieved.

The director also let out a breath, and hurriedly walked to Huo Chengming, asking, “Are they from the embassy? Or…”

Huo Chengming: “Not the embassy.”

Li Jinyuan added, “This time, the army’s appetite was too big, so the embassy is still negotiating with them. Also, there are a few hundred Chinese tourists stranded a block away, so after the negotiations, they’ll probably pick up the people there first.”

After all, there were only a dozen or so people in the program group.

The director hurriedly nodded. “Then the people picking us up…”

Huo Chengming didn’t answer and first looked at the cameramen. “They can’t film anymore.”

The director immediately understood that there were definitely some things that couldn’t be filmed. The director nodded, thinking that the footage so far was enough. As long as they can safely return, then the footage could easily occupy a lot of hot searches.

“Can you walk?” Huo Chengming asked Zhong Yuhuan.

Zhong Yuhuan nodded.

At this time, she had to walk, even if she couldn’t.

If she let Li Jinyuan or Huo Chengming carry her, wouldn’t it be adding to the mess?

This was the “dragging down others” part that only appeared in those dog-blood, brain-damaged films!

A bit of regret seemed to flash across Huo Chengming’s face.

Zhong Yuhuan: “???”

Why are you regretful?

Do you want to carry me?

They didn’t talk for that long. Huo Chengming and Li Jinyuan sandwiched Zhong Yuhuan, leading her outside like guards. Gu Yuling was cruelly pushed away from Zhong Yuhuan’s side.

The cameramen quickly packed up.

The celebrities’ bodyguards and assistants followed their artists out, leaving just the workers.

Everyone was lost, not knowing what type of people were waiting outside. However, with Zhong Yuhuan, Huo Chengming, and Li Jinyuan walking in the front, they had nothing to worry about.

When they stepped out of the church, the first thing everyone saw was the plaza outside the church. Further down the road, they could see wrecked and abandoned cars, broken glass, fresh blood, and even people lying on the ground…

Everyone normally lived in a safe environment. The most frightening thing in life was people who rebel against society to kill others… where would they have seen such a scene?

While everyone was feeling horrified and panicked, they turned and saw a fleet of cars.

No… they weren’t a fleet of cars.

Because the cars in the plaza were large, off-road trucks. Each truck had very thick glass, resembling bulletproof glass.

And in the back of the truck, a patch of black heads could be seen.

Meaning that it was full of people.

Looking at it now, how did it seem like a fleet of cars?

It was more like a military team!

Everyone instantly became more confused.

Just who are these people?

They also weren’t like the Turkish army who had started the coup they had seen before!

At this time, the door to the off-road vehicle opened and a tall foreign man came out.

The man walked over, calling out, “Mr. Huo.”

Everyone held their breaths, thinking…

Yin Qiqi was so shortsighted before. When she heard that Huo Chengming was in primary and secondary industry, she felt like he couldn’t be as rich as those in real estate or film investment… they just knew that people from this type of background couldn’t be normal! Not to mention that there was a class system in non-service sectors, and those who do well could even become a pillar of the country.

Only then did Zhong Yuhuan think that she only understood a little bit of Huo Chengming.

She blinked, looking at the foreign man in surprise.

And that foreign man quickly looked towards her.

“Oh! This must be Miss Zhong?” the foreign man smiled.

“Hello.” Zhong Yuhuan couldn’t figure out his identity, but from Huo Chengming’s behavior, he didn’t seem like someone important, so she only slightly greeted him.

The foreign man became more enthusiastic and smilingly added, “I often hear Mr. Huo talk about Miss Zhong.”

“Φοιβη*.” He used Greek to say a phrase.

*Φοιβη means “Phoebe”

Zhong Yuhuan was startled and asked, “He said what?”

The foreign man was stunned. “… Oh, Miss Zhong can understand.”

Of course, Zhong Yuhuan could understand.

She turned to Huo Chengming.

And Huo Chengming was looking at the foreign man. His eyes were cold and the foreign man trembled under his stare.

But when Zhong Yuhuan turned around, Huo Chengming neatly took back his gaze, not betraying anything. He slightly lowered his eyes and pretended to be dumb.
