Chapter 1097: Retribution Befalls Her

Sure enough, Shen Kang answered the phone.

A subordinate of his was on the other end: "Assistant Shen, something’s wrong! Song Anqi has escaped!"

Shen Kang furrowed his brow, covered the receiver, and looked up at Lu Jihan, reporting honestly: "Mr. Lu, Song Anqi has run away."

"What? Run away? That stupid woman! If she had stayed put and cooperated with me, I could have kept her safe. Now that she’s fleeing, she’s just jumping into the fire!"

Lu Jihan couldn’t help but curse, starting to swear.

"Quickly send more men to the nursing home. Her father is still there; she shouldn’t be able to escape so easily."

"Yes!"

Shen Kang received the order and instructed the driver to speed up.

......

Meanwhile, at Fushoukang Nursing Home.

Song Anqi took advantage of the two bodyguards’ distraction and climbed out of the bathroom window.

Fortunately, this building wasn’t high; she was on the third floor, and after tearing down the curtain fabric and bed sheets, she made a long rope ladder.

She slid down the cloth ladder, successfully reaching the first floor.

She knew Yan Zhengxiong would not let her go, so she had to escape before Yan Zhengxiong arrived.

Originally, she could just leave her father behind and escape, but she couldn’t abandon her father, Song Huaizhong.

As she was about to run out the back door, she turned back.

She wanted to check on her father.

However, there were still Lu Jihan’s bodyguards at the entrance; if she ran over now, it would reveal she had escaped.

If they discovered her, she wouldn’t be able to get away.

As she hesitated, she suddenly heard slight yet rapidly approaching footsteps coming from the bottom of the emergency stairwell.

The footsteps were quick, as if someone was jogging upstairs.

Her heart instinctively jolted, and she peeked down the stairway, spotting a tall man dressed in a black leather jacket and black casual pants, wearing a black baseball cap.

The man was tall and robust, agile on his feet.

As Song Anqi lowered her head to look at him, the man happened to look up at her from the staircase.

Their eyes met, causing Song Anqi to tremble inside.

The man in black was Yan Zhengxiong’s bodyguard!

Boom—

Her mind went numb; Song Anqi realized her death was near.

That person must be the reaper sent by Yan Zhengxiong to claim her life!

Thinking of this, she shivered all over, no longer daring to linger.

Song Anqi quickly opened the emergency stairwell door and fled down the stairs on the other side.

The nursing home building was already very old. In addition to the two elevators in the middle, there were emergency stairwells on both sides.

Poor her, with prosthetic limbs and a fresh injury on her leg yet untreated, now having to run for her life...

But she couldn’t afford to think about that. Surviving was the priority!

She ran out of the nursing home building, glanced around, and chose to run down a secluded mountain path.

Song Anqi didn’t know she had chosen the wrong path.

The end of that mountain path was actually a cliff!

All she could think about was survival and fleeing, with only one thought in her mind: escape, escape, as far away as possible.

She couldn’t even spare a glance back, no matter what, as long as she kept running forward.

She had seen the bodyguard beside Yan Zhengxiong before.

He was carrying a gun!

Could it be that retribution had caught up with her so quickly?

No, no! She hasn’t avenged herself yet; she wouldn’t die like this!

Imagining being shot dead with a single bullet, Song Anqi quickened her pace.

However, the road ahead wasn’t easy. She began regretting choosing the mountain path, as clusters of vines, tangled and sprawling plants, along with towering trees, gradually led her astray.
