Song Fan quickly reached the next location, and the three of them continued to coordinate their attacks.

However, the opponents were not that easy to deal with. They not only had ample ammunition but also occupied a highly advantageous position, resulting in a fierce exchange of fire.

Song Fan’s expression became even more unpleasant. If it weren’t for Sasha and Gu Chen holding her back, she would have charged in.

Gu Chen pulled her to a safer place. “What were you trying to do just now? If you charge in, those people won’t spare you. It’s suicidal.”

“I won’t die,” Song Fan said coldly. “I’ll make sure they die in front of me.”

Upon seeing her tense, Gu Chen put down his gun and reached out to embrace her. This action took Song Fan by surprise, and she stiffened, unsure how to respond. However, Gu Chen’s embrace was genuinely warm, and she couldn’t bring herself to push him away.

Slowly, Song Fan leaned into his arms, losing the fierce aura she had moments ago.

Gu Chen raised his hand to comfortingly stroke her back, silently reassuring her of his presence.

“I know you’re feeling wronged, but you can’t neglect your well-being,” Gu Chen whispered, lowering his voice.

“How do you know I’m feeling wronged?” Song Fan’s voice came from within his embrace.

Gu Chen chuckled softly. “When something you’ve been hoping for finally comes, and a bunch of b*stards ruins it, of course, you’d feel wronged.”

Although Song Fan was formidable, she was only 19 years old this year. In the eyes of those who didn’t know her, she was just a young girl.

Those around her were accustomed to her strength and subconsciously overlooked her emotions, unable to see that she was upset because she had lost something she desired.

In both lifetimes, Song Fan had lived for quite a long time, but in the previous life, she was always focused on studying. In the end, she entered the lab, never having a life or entertainment of her own. She died at a young age.

As someone who lived for so long, no one ever loved her. Her godmother took care of her with all her strength, looking for jobs everywhere to make money, and didn’t have much time to be with her.

Song Fan used a cold shell to disguise herself as if she didn’t need love and could live well on her own.

But she was still a living, emotional person. Being abandoned would naturally make her sad. After going through so much, she wished someone could comfort her, but these feelings had to be buried deep within her. Now, Gu Chen asked about her grievances, and she couldn’t hold back anymore.

Song Fan didn’t want to let others see her tears. She buried herself in Gu Chen’s embrace, unwilling to let go. She wiped her tears on his clothes.

Gu Chen remained still, holding Song Fan and continually stroking her back, comforting her in this silent manner.

After a long while, Song Fan calmed down and stood up. After crying, she was still the invincible Song Fan, just stronger in her heart.

She picked up her gun and said, “Since they don’t want to come out, then let them all die inside.”

However, those inside had no idea what happened outside. Upon seeing Song Fan not launching an attack, they assumed she was preparing for something.

Amid such speculation, hearts were restless. The captain knew they couldn’t continue like this. It was better to charge out and face Song Fan head-on; maybe they could achieve victory amid the chaos. It was certainly better than waiting here to die.

Just as Song Fan was still pulling Sasha to get explosives, those people suddenly rushed out from inside. They were firing randomly, not bothering to aim, creating a chaotic slaughter.

Song Fan quickly pulled Sasha toward cover, and Gu Chen behind them wasn’t worried at all.

“These b*stards!” Song Fan cursed.

Sasha was even more infuriated, continuously swearing in a foreign language. Although Song Fan could understand what he was saying, it still felt noisy to her ears.

Amid the chaos, she heard someone shout, “Gu Chen is here!”

Song Fan then remembered that there was still a live target on her side. Even if these people were risking their lives, they were after a bounty, and they wouldn’t let the chance to kill Gu Chen slip away.

Without considering the overall situation, she ran toward Gu Chen’s direction.

But when she arrived, she realized there was no need to worry. Gu Chen could handle these people himself. He had been chased by others for many years, and if he only relied on bodyguards, he would have died countless times.

Upon feeling sorry for Song Fan’s grievances, Gu Chen felt even more disgusted with these people. He acted decisively and efficiently, killing them all. This made the mercenaries doubt their abilities, as no matter who they sent, Gu Chen could handle them all..
