Chapter 805: Ling Pinyuan Shows Her Might
When Ling Pinyuan finished speaking, Old Master Chi, Old Master Wu, and Wu Pingting looked at Zhong Nuannuan simultaneously. Even though Ling Pinyuan was in charge of this matter, Zhong Nuannuan was the one who was going to protect them.
“We can understand that Chi Yang’s grandfather and Elder Wu are elderly, but the three of them are so young. Why should they go in first?”
Even though everyone admired Zhong Nuannuan before their lives were at stake, who would be willing to give in to her and Selina just because of their special statuses?
However, the next moment, Ling Pinyuan suddenly took out a gun from her bag and fired at the ceiling with a loud bang. Everyone screamed in fear, especially the woman who objected.
Ling Pinyuan spoke forcefully at this moment.
“There’s no reason for that! Either you do as I say, or you get on the elevator last. If anyone refuses to listen to my orders, you’ll be labeled a spy and terminated. Your questioning will only waste everyone’s time and their lives.”
With that, no one dared to comment.
“Miss Zhong, please.”
Zhong Nuannuan glanced at Ling Pinyuan and said, “No, I’ll cover the rear. You should let them leave first.”
Zhong Nuannuan’s words surprised everyone. They all thanked her and rushed into the elevator without waiting for Ling Pinyuan to speak.
Ling Pinyuan was in a daze. A lot of people had already stormed into the elevator. With more than twenty people already inside the elevator, there were still a few who tried to squeeze themselves in. However, Ling Pinyuan exerted a lot of force and pulled women who were swarming in from behind out without saying anything else.
“I’ll say it one last time. Those who disrupt order; those who don’t listen to my orders, will be terminated for espionage.”
Although those women fell to the ground, they did not dare to say anything in front of an insistent Ling Pinyuan.
The elevator descended very quickly. Soon, it reached the first floor.
At that moment, the firefighters downstairs were already in position. When they saw the escapees, they brought them to the ambulance to measure their blood pressure and examine their bodies for injuries.
The elevator returned to the 76th floor to pick up more people.
After the first successful transport, everyone was much calmer now.
Since it was a traction elevator, and no one had pressed the elevator button between the first floor to the floor everyone was at, the return journey only took three minutes.
Three minutes later, the elevator doors opened again. This time, the group that entered the elevator was much more orderly.
The elevator doors closed, and the second batch of people successfully exited.
There were only about 200 people in total who attended the auction, including the workers from Lijing Mansion. Most of them were men who followed Chi Yang down the stairs. There were less than 100 women and elderly there.
After the two groups of people entered the elevator, the number of people outside decreased by half, and everyone’s hearts calmed down.
“Auntie Yang, you’re not feeling well. When the elevator arrives next, you should leave first.”
Yang Min stood beside Zhong Nuannuan and rejected her without hesitation.
“That won’t do! I’m Old Qu’s wife, and I used to be a female soldier in the special forces. No matter who leaves first, it won’t be someone like me.”
“But…”
“That’s enough, Nuannuan. I’ll come with you to cover the rear. Besides, Old Qu entrusted me in your care.”
Zhong Nuannuan sighed and said, “Alright. I just saw that your face was a little pale. Do you have a headache?”
