Chapter 3 - Her Identity

"What?! Are you sure?" Qin Zirui exclaimed.

He grabbed the ID once again and looked at the girl in front of the car.

"Allico Intelligence's Software Engineer is a 17-year-old?!" Qin Zirui still can't believe it, he looked at the ID, "I mean, she's turning 18 in a few days, but still! She's too smart for her age!"

He looked back at Luo Zhelan and squinted his eyes as he asked, "How did you know?"

"Instinct."

Qin Zirui's lips couldn't help but twitch.

"Bro..."

"Go help them."

Yang Lei who was still stupefied by what he just heard, nodded and walked towards the young lady.

He looked at the woman in front of him and he couldn't help but be more respectful, "Our Young Master is willing to help. Where are your companions Miss?"

Jiang Yue glanced at the inside of the car and looked back at the man in front of her, "Thank you."

She went back to the car and explained the situation to Jiang Xiu and Wen Gang.

She hid the gun on the back of the waist of her pants and then put her arms around the waist of Jiang Xiu as her other hand put pressure on the wound on the thigh.

They then entered the second car.

It was an SUV so all of them fit inside.

For Jing Xiu to be able to lie on the seat, Wen Gang was sitting in the third-row seat of the SUV.

The man who just talked to her came to her and handed her a box.

"Here's a bleed kit. Maybe it can help you." Jiang Yue nodded and said her thanks.

The man driving the car looked back at the back seat, "I'll do it, Miss."

He offered as he had also been shot before and he knows how to treat it.

"It's fine." Jiang Yue refused.

"You might not know how to—"

The girl suddenly looked up, her cold gaze penetrating him. He immediately stopped talking and lowered his head.

She slowly removed the cloth and started cleaning the wound. With the available materials, Jiang Yue made a tourniquet and wrapped it around near the girl's groin.

The car's door was open on Jiang Yue's side.

Luo Zhelan and Qin Zirui have seen how fast she cleaned and handled the wound. Not many know about the tourniquet, yet she performed it in a fast and precise manner.

"Young Master Luo, we found 13 dead bodies in the forest. All of them were shot in their head." A subordinate reported to him.

"All shot in their head?" Qin Zirui can't believe what he just heard.

He turned his head at the girl inside the car.

Quite unbelievable that a girl as young as her could kill 13 men with just one shot through their heads.

"Yes, Young Master Qin."

"Clean it all up." Luo Zhelan ordered as he stared at the girl also.

Seeing that she doesn't need any help with the wound, he said to Yang Lei, "Let's go to the nearest hospital."

Jiang Xiu groaned as she felt the tourniquet tightening more.

Seeing her ghost-like skin, and how much blood she lost, Jiang Yue couldn't help but look down at her bloodied hands.

"Jiang Yue, do you know these people?" Wen Gang whispered to her, although it was still discernible.

"I don't."

She weakly laid on the back seat of the car.

How can it happen again?

She promised herself that an incident like this will never happen again.

But what is she doing?

Her sister is once again laying weakly, pale, and a bullet lodged in her thigh.

It was not long after they arrived at the hospital.

Jiang Xiu was put on a stretcher and was immediately sent into the emergency room to remove the bullet.

She came out in a while, and the doctor said that she was fine.

She was transferred to a ward afterward.

She only suffered from blood loss and the gunshot wound didn't do any further damage other than that.

She sat on the hospital corridors seat.

Luo Zhelan who was waiting all this time, came in front of her and asked, "Are you not gonna come in?"

Hearing his question, she simply shook her head.

She doesn't dare to face Jiang Xiu yet.

Suddenly, there was a mineral water that came into her sight. She looked up, quite tedious since the man was tall and she was sitting, then finally an unfamiliar yet handsome face entered her vision.

Her eyebrows furrowed as her frigid and domineering aura once again enveloped her.

Luo Zhelan couldn't help but grin when he perceived her changes. "Destroying the bridge after crossing the river, Ms. Jiang?"

Hearing what he said, Jiang Yue realized that the man in front of her was the Young Master who helped her.

Her nerves immediately relaxed.

She looked at the mineral bottle and accepted it. "Thank you."

Luo Zhelan gestured towards the bottle, "For the water or for taking you here?"

Jiang Yue was silent for a minute before she replied in a low voice. "Both."

"Why don't you clean up yourself first?" He suggested when he saw her bloody hands. His gaze suddenly stopped on her shoulder.

His eyes narrowed when he noticed how the cloth on her shoulder blade was soaked with blood. He didn't notice it before because she was wearing a black shirt.

"Are you injured?" He asked in a deep and low voice.
