Chapter Eighteen: Bankruptcy

  After buying things, Lin Hui was ready to go back to school.

  "Hey." Just then, Lin Hui's shoulder was tapped by someone.

  Lin Hui turned his head and looked, it was actually Chen Yanxin. A milky white flower-edged shirt, a tight-fitting jeans wrapped tightly around those two long and straight beautiful legs, her skin was delicate and smooth, without any makeup, still pure and beautiful, standing on the street like a stunning scenery.

  Lin Hui couldn't help but admit Chen Yanxin's beauty, "What a coincidence, what are you doing here?"

  "Of course I'm out shopping, what about you, why are you alone here?" Chen Yanxin said to Lin Hui.

  "Something has come up and I'm on my way to school," said Lin Hui.

  When Lin Hui said that, Chen Yanxin's eyes lit up instantly. "That means you don't have anything else to do, right? Accompany me to the bank, and we'll head back to school together later. Well, it's settled then."

  Lin Hui was crying and laughing at the same time, it seemed like he hadn't said anything at all?

  "How can you just watch a beauty carry so many things?" Chen Yanxin couldn't help but say, seeing Lin Hui's completely unmoved expression.

  Looking at the bags in Chen Yanxin's hands, Lin Hui finally knew what she was up to and smiled, saying, "What's there to be embarrassed about? It's not my stuff. Besides, your self-perception is exceptionally good."

  "This is called confidence, okay?" Chen Yanxin said, "Can you really bear me carrying so many things?"

  "Didn't your elementary school teacher ever tell you to take care of your own affairs? Who told you to buy so many things?" Lin Hui said seriously, without showing any emotion.

  "I didn't know things would turn out like this, that girl with no humanity would abandon me for a man and dump all these things on me." Chen Yanxin put on a pitiful expression, "Brother Lin, good Brother Lin, you wouldn't be heartless enough to watch a poor girl suffer, would you?"

  "Stop it, stop it, can't I even make a suggestion?" Lin Hui was defeated by Chen Yanxin, and who knows what weird thing she'll say next.

  "I knew you'd be the best." As he spoke, he handed over nearly ten bags to Lin Hui's hands and even swung his arm. "Finally know the benefits of having a boyfriend."

  "What's wrong, has your heart been stirred up?" Lin Hui joked.

  "Pfft, you're just infatuated now. A man who can catch my eye hasn't appeared yet." Chen Yanxin said with wide eyes.

  Lin Hui didn't bother to argue with her, knowing that this woman's taste was not ordinary. However, Lin Hui could understand, coming from a wealthy family, being beautiful and talented, a typical rich beauty, it would be strange if she liked an ordinary person.

  Soon, the two people arrived at the Bank of China.

  "I'll wait for you here, at most ten minutes." After saying that to Lin Hui, Chen Yanxin ran in quickly.

  Seeing many people inside, Lin Hui did not follow them in.

  Just as Lin Hui and others were getting a bit bored, a van stopped not far away, and four people got out of the car one after another. Lin Hui didn't pay attention to it either.

  Just the next moment, Lin Hui's eyes suddenly fixed. Just as the last man got off the bus, he saw a black handgun at his waist, and Lin Hui was sure he didn't see it wrong.

  Lin Hui realized that something was off, and carefully looked at the few people who had already gotten off the bus. They were all young and strong, and with his enhanced vision after entering the Qi Refining Realm, Lin Hui clearly saw that their faces had been altered, making it impossible to recognize their original appearance.

  "Really? Is my luck that good?" Lin Hui was already 50-60% sure of his guess, and hastily turned around to enter the bank. To be exact, Chen Yanxin was still inside.

  As soon as they were out of sight of the four people, Lin Hui rushed towards Chen Yanxin.

  "Hurry up and leave here." Lin Hui grabbed Chen Yanxin and pulled her out. "Someone is going to rob the bank, if we're slow, it'll be too late." Lin Hui's heart was already in his throat, he had never encountered such a thing before.

  Chen Yanxin was taken aback at first, then smiled and said, "How is that possible? Don't joke around. Wait a bit longer, it'll be my turn soon..."

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!!"

  No sooner had Chen Yanxin's words fallen than three shots rang out, like three thunderclaps on a quiet night.

  Lin Hui's heart sank, knowing it was too late, the other party had already made their move.

  Those four people have walked to the door and slowly put on black masks. Didn't they fire the gun just now?

  Turning his head to look at the other side, he saw two people wearing black masks holding guns in their hands. The other party has accomplices!

  "With both hands covering my head and squatting on the spot, I'll count to three. If not, don't blame me for being impolite. 3..." Just then, a loud voice rang out.

  At this time, Chen Yanxin was already frightened, when had she ever encountered such a thing? Her face was a little pale, losing its original color, and her eyes revealed a hint of horror, but she didn't lose her composure. It wasn't until now that she knew Lin Hui hadn't lied to him.

  After a brief panic, looking at the somewhat chaotic hall, Lin Hui calmed down instead.

  "Follow me." Lin Hui pulled Chen Yanxin, half-crouching and moving to a safer place behind the crowd. Compared to the front, this place was much safer. Who knew if the other side would suddenly start shooting wildly later?

  Looking at Chen Yanxin, who seemed normal, Lin Hui was also slightly surprised. What he worried about most was that Chen Yanxin would lose her mind, but Chen Yanxin's performance was much better than he had imagined.

  The entire hall was in chaos, with screams, shouts and cries for help, but under the intimidation of the gun, almost everyone chose to shut up and squat down obediently.

  Looking at those who had already lost their composure and were trying to rush out, Lin Hui's face showed a look of unbearable pain. He had seen the four people at the door raise the guns in their hands, while the person on the other side had already counted down to three.

  Although unbearable, he won't do anything. At this time, standing out is undoubtedly seeking death. It can only be blamed on their own psychological quality being too poor, losing basic rationality at this time.

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!"

  As the shots rang out, the three people who rushed to the door fell down directly, and until the moment they fell, their eyes were still filled with terror and unwillingness.

  "Don't look anymore, don't make a sound later." Lin Hui took a deep breath and comforted Chen Yanxin. Judging from the situation just now, this group of people is absolutely not ordinary people. You know, this is in the downtown area, generally even if the robbery is successful, it's hard to escape.

  "Sorry." Chen Yanxin said softly, her face even paler than before. If she hadn't hesitated earlier, the two of them could have left, but now Lin Hui was stuck here with her.

  "There's nothing to apologize for, just squat down and don't speak." Lin Hui said while secretly observing the surrounding situation. There were six people wearing masks, all holding guns.

  His eyes were sharp and his movements professional, he didn't look like an ordinary person at all. Unlike most robbers, the other party seemed to be without a hint of panic, nor was he in a hurry. Upon seeing this, Lin Hui couldn't help but furrow his brow.

  "Bang bang..."

  Just as Lin Hui was still observing, several more gunshots were heard, seemingly coming from upstairs.

  Lin Hui's heart sank, and it turned out that the other party had people on the upper floor. It seemed that this action had been planned for a long time. He had known before that this bank had three floors, but Lin Hui was not clear about what was specifically on the top floor.

  In less than a minute, the entire hall was already under their control, and more than 20 people were squatting honestly on the ground.

  "Alright, big brother." A rough voice came through the headset.

  "Is anyone there?" said a man wearing a black jacket on the east side of the first floor hall.

  "It's under control now, lao si is watching."

  "Alright, proceed as planned. Take care of Lao Si, those two cannot move for now."

  After the call ended, the man in black said coldly, "The second floor is already under control. Proceed according to plan and be on high alert. If anything goes wrong, don't blame me for turning against you."

  "Yes!" The people beside him froze for a moment, they knew that the person in front of them was not joking.

  The man in black didn't say anything else and walked directly to the second floor after glancing at the people in the hall.

  "Get up slowly with your hands behind your head, line up quickly! The gun in my hand doesn't have eyes." As the black-clad man left, one person shouted loudly, waving the gun in his hand.

  Obviously, the ruthless and merciless tactics of the other side had intimidated everyone. In just a moment, more than 20 people lined up in a row with their heads bowed.

  "Our purpose is for money, as long as you listen to us, we won't hurt you, but if you play any tricks, don't blame us for being impolite..." One of them shouted while holding a gun, "Get your heads down and go up to the second floor one by one."

  Lin Hui naturally wouldn't believe the other's nonsense, and it was clear that they weren't just after money. With so many banks in Jiangnan City, why did they choose to rob a bank in the busiest district? Anyone with half a brain would know that even if they managed to get the money, it would be hard to escape.

  The words of that black jacket man just now 'Is anyone there?' 'Those two people can't move for the time being' further confirmed his speculation.

  About 45 minutes later, more than 20 people went upstairs to the second floor.

  In the middle of the hall, a dozen or so people were huddled together with their heads down, next to them were two security personnel corpses, apparently shot dead. Around the crowd stood several masked men holding guns, their eyes constantly scanning the surroundings.

  "Go get a hostage over here, the police are about to arrive, hehe, the good show is officially starting." A man said in front of the window facing the main street.

  Upon hearing this, a person beside nodded and quickly walked towards the hall, while Lin Hui and his group were just about to crouch down.

  "You don't have to squat down anymore, come with me." The man said to Chen Yanxin, and upon seeing Chen Yanxin's appearance, the man's eyes lit up noticeably.

  Lin Hui's face changed suddenly, and no one here knew better than him what the past represented. Although they were not close, after entering the Qi Refining Realm, his hearing had increased several times, and he could vaguely hear what that person had just said.

  What is hostage? It's cannon fodder.

  The other party's intention is already very clear, which is to wait for the police to arrive. In order to strengthen their bargaining chips and take control of the situation, they will definitely kill someone as a warning first. Although Lin Hui had never experienced such things before, he thought it through clearly.

  If Chen Yanxin is taken away, it will absolutely be a disaster!

  Lin Hui's back was already sweating, while Chen Yanxin, although unaware of what the other party wanted to take her to do, knew that it was absolutely not a good thing. Her face was deathly pale, and her eyes revealed layers of terror, shaking her head slightly as if making a final struggle.

  "I'll go for her!" Lin Hui suddenly spoke up at this time.
