Shadow Confronting Black Rose

Jiang Yue, upon learning that Gu Ming Tao was with Xiang Lin, pulled over to the side of the road to wait for them. She stood outside the car, still holding Xiao An in her arms, and before long, two cars stopped in the middle of the road.

Approaching them swiftly, Jiang Yue took two steps forward but abruptly halted, her hand swiftly reaching for her gun in its holster. She aimed it at one of the three individuals who had just arrived.

Surprised, Xiang Lin raised both hands in surrender, "What is this about?"

Scarlet, who had also exited her car, looked on in shock and confusion.

Gu Ming Tao, accustomed to being pursued for his abilities and having faced danger before, couldn't shake off his nervousness in this unexpected situation.

His gaze fell upon the boy cradled in the young woman's arms. The child's head nestled in the crook of her neck as he clung to her. Observing that the boy could still endure the pain brought a sigh of relief from him.
