Her heart sank. As she turned to leave, a voice suddenly boomed, "Sister Nian!" It was Bai Yuan.
Li Beinian jumped and almost took to her heels on reflex.
Gu Mingye's party, on the other hand, was stunned momentarily before they shouted, "Give chase!"
In all her life, Li Beinian had never felt this sort of guilt.
Her knees went wobbly, and she couldn't be sure if it was from the activity of the previous night or from being chased by these men.
She was about to run down the escalator when, from the corner of her eyes, she saw the elevator stopping on this floor.
She took a quick turn and ran towards the elevator.
The men giving chase were all trained veteran soldiers from the special forces. So, they were naturally very quick on their feet.
It didn't take much effort for them to catch up.
Alas, Li Beinian had managed to squeeze into the elevator just as the doors were shutting.
