The Beloved and Pampered Girl

Chapter 957: Chapter 957: Does the Idea Have to Be So Upright?

Jian Dan and Ling Xiaoyang had just finished their meal and were preparing to leave when they heard a very noisy commotion by the entrance. Although it wasn’t very clear, they could still vaguely make out some of it.

“Ling Xiaoyang, something must be happening!” Jian Dan deduced from the snippets of conversation he heard.

“It must be a bank robbery!” Ling Xiaoyang thought, recalling that there was a bank on the same floor they had noticed when they arrived.

Jian Dan nodded solemnly.

To encounter such a once-in-a-century event just while eating, is it extremely lucky or extremely unfortunate?

“Little Jian Dan, you stay here while I go check it out!” Ling Xiaoyang turned to Jian Dan and said.

“I’m coming with you!” Jian Dan couldn’t possibly let Ling Xiaoyang face danger alone.

“Listen to me, I’m a soldier, it’s my responsibility!” Ling Xiaoyang spoke seriously.

“Don’t talk to me about responsibility! To me, you’re not just a soldier, you’re also my friend, even family. I absolutely won’t allow my family to risk their lives alone!” Jian Dan said in an irrefutable tone.

“But…”

“No buts, have you forgotten? I’m also pretty formidable now, no less than an ordinary soldier.”

“Then you must listen to me later!”

“Okay!”

“Be careful!”

The two of them moved slowly towards the outside and saw that the entire floor had been taken control of by those people, and they were armed with serious firepower.

Jian Dan and Ling Xiaoyang exchanged glances, their expressions exceptionally somber.

Because the situation was very complicated, in addition to robbing the bank, these crooks actually had additional demands: the release of the internationally wanted criminal Xiang Zhiqiang who had been captured recently!

And they demanded that after releasing him, a helicopter be prepared to whisk them away.

No wonder they required so many hostages.

Jian Dan and Ling Xiaoyang were both acutely aware that such demands would never be met; the current negotiations were only a tactic to buy more time to devise a rescue plan.

Given the criminals’ heavy weapons, what Jian Dan and Ling Xiaoyang could do was to ensure the safety of the hostages present as much as possible.

Suddenly, a man clutched his chest and fell to the ground. “Dad~ what’s wrong with you? Where’s your medicine?” A young girl kneeled on the ground next to him, frantically searching his body for something!

Such a scene, which would normally only be seen on television, was now happening in real life. It’s difficult for ordinary people not to be afraid, let alone someone with a heart condition.

This sudden incident caught the attention of the robbers. The leader walked over to their side, followed by a burly man wielding an AK47.

“What’s going on?” the voice was cold and carried a bandit’s menace.

“My father has a heart condition. Can you please, please let me take him to the hospital? Otherwise, my father will surely die!” the young girl pleaded with the man leading the robbers.

“Little girl, you might be overthinking it. If I don’t get my brother out today, none of you are leaving here.

If he dies here today, that’s his fate, understand?” the criminal spoke bluntly without leaving any room for negotiation.

“Please, I’m begging you!” the girl pleaded again, refusing to give up hope.

“If you keep making noise, I’ll end him right now!” said the man behind him as he already pointed the gun at the old man.

The girl was frightened and promptly shut her mouth, no longer daring to say another word…

“Let me have a look at him!” At that moment, a female student standing beside Jian Dan stood up and spoke.

“Are you a doctor?” the girl asked with a hint of hope.

“I’m not, I’m just a resident doctor, but I should be able to administer some emergency treatment!” The female student’s voice was clearly trembling as she spoke.

In such a situation, her courage to stand up was truly brave, earning the admiration of those around her!
