Chapter 3796: A New Addition (412)

Gu Jinglian, however, would not slack off. He drew his pistol and fired four more shots into his joint. That way, even if he had been still alive, he would not be a threat to them.
He had come into this room through an underground tunnel. It was a very narrow passageway. In his condition, he would have been able to pass through it easily. But not Chu He. She was more than nine months pregnant, and her belly was too swollen. He would be worried if she forced her way through.
Looking around, he said, “There must be a door to this place.”
Chu He replied, “I remember there was a door, but it was locked from the inside. I think Black Panther swallowed the key.”
“Swallowed it just like that?”
“Yeah.” Chu He continued, “Before you got here, I saw him coughing up a lot of blood. I don’t know what condition he had but he kept saying that his days were numbered. Could it be terminal or something?”
Gu Jinglian frowned. No wonder he was so unscrupulous. He really didn’t have long to live. He wanted to go down with him!
He knew there was nothing he could do to Gu Jinglian. So he targeted Chu He, who was more than nine months pregnant.
Damn him. But he was careless.
Gu Jinglian asked, “How did you end up in his hands?”
“Uh…” Chu He said, “Meng Qingxue contacted me on WeChat and asked to meet. She said she wanted to talk to me.”
“How did you know that it was Meng Qingxue for sure?”
Chu He pursed her lips. “I’m sorry. I was careless. I really wasn’t thinking.”
“Listen …” Gu Jinglian said in a low voice, “The Gu family has made many enemies in the underworld, so…”
There was a pause, but he did not continue.
It suddenly occurred to him that Chu He was about to give birth. In the future, he and Chu He would be a family of six. A wife and four children. At that point, if any enemies came looking for trouble, it would be tricky.
In the past, the Gu family had many enemies in the underworld. However, he was used to such a life, so he did not care. But after what had happened to Chu He, it was a lesson learned. What if it should happen again, the target could be Xiaobao, or Lin Xi, or…
He didn’t want that to happen again!
Chu He saw his grave expression and asked worriedly, “Jinglian, what’s wrong?”
“I won’t let this happen again!” Gu Jinglian changed the subject. “But now is not the time for that. The priority is to figure out how to get out of here.”
‘I know which way the door is.’
“Where?”
Chu He led Gu Jinglian to the front of the door. As expected, it was a steel door. However, it was locked twice and from the inside. Chu He said that Black Panther had swallowed the key.
Without a key, the only way was to force it open! Gu Jinglian ordered Chu He to stand to the side and took half a step back. He rushed forward and delivered a solid kick. The two locks shook under the impact, but only slightly loosened.
Chu He said, “We need to try it a few more times.”
“Okay.”
The man kicked the lock several more times until it finally broke. He opened the door and took Chu He’s hand. “Follow me,” he reminded her. “Be careful!”
“Okay.”
He turned on the flashlight on his phone and lit the way ahead. Relying on his sense of direction, he felt his way to the door of the dark room where he had been in earlier. He walked in. Qingjiu was still sitting there waiting for him.
He had tried to break the chain, but it was too strong and could not be broken.
