Chapter 2385
Murong Zhuan was silent and tilted his face to the side, not retorting.
But doing so didn’t make Master Jin take his breath away, and he turned his gaze to me again, and after just one look, he turned and sat back impatiently before commanding, “Finish this woman.”
At once almost the entire house of bodyguards raised their wooden bins and the The sound of bullets being loaded rose and fell in the living room.
At this moment Murong Zhuan suddenly spoke in an extremely high voice, “Whoever wants to get everyone killed should all open their wooden bins!”
The people who should have been pulling the trigger instantly stalled in their movements and looked towards Master Jin on the sofa in unison, waiting for him to give the final order.
But before Master Jin could speak, Murong Zhuan dropped his cards first, “The explosives buried around the house, enough to instantly level everything in this land, were originally used against my sworn enemy, Fu Shen Yan, Master Jin, you mustn’t push me too far.”
My heart immediately tightened and a cold wind drifted across my back.
He had actually made such a terrible design, which I hadn’t noticed until today.
Just how much more outrageous Murong Zhuan could be.
The same face was also on Master Jin’s cadre of men, who were not afraid of death, but obviously did not want to be accounted for here for my sake either.
After hearing Murong Zhuan’s words, Master Jin fell into silence, staring up at him wordlessly, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a long time, he came back to his senses, sneered sarcastically and said to himself, “I really raised a good dog, I didn’t catch any prey, and now you want to bite me back, not bad, Murong Zhuan, you are very good!”
With that, he slapped the sofa and stood up, confronting Murong Zhuan face to face, with only one fist distance between them.
Master Jin was a cut shorter than Murong Zhuan, but all of them made up for it in their aura, and for a while the two sides were in a neck-and-neck situation.
“Do you really think I would believe that you would even give up your life for this woman?” Master Jin’s eyes narrowed and his killing intent grew thicker.
Murong Zhuan looked straight into his eyes, steady as a mountain, “Master Jin might as well try?”
The lines of sight met in the air, invisibly as if there was a flash of swords and shadows, the atmosphere became tense and could get out of hand at any moment.
After a minute long confrontation, Master Jin’s face was the first to ease and he raised one hand, signalling his men to put away the wooden barn.
He knew very well that dogs jump to the wall in a hurry, not to mention that Murong Zhuan had never been one to follow common sense, and to die together was something Murong Zhuan could do.
“You think you can keep her?” Master Jin said coldly, “Just from Southeast Asia alone, there’s no way they’ll let this woman live!”
“Don’t scare me Master Jin, I’m not a three-year-old child.” Murong Zhuan smiled a dangerously horrible smile, “As long as you don’t say anything, they can’t produce evidence that those things are related to my woman, even if you have it, Master Jin, handing over the evidence and trying to rise again in the future, will anyone still trust you? You are a wise man and know what is best for you and me.”
“You, for sure, will protect me, what happened abroad is just an excuse for you to take advantage of the opportunity to get rid of Shen Shu, am I right?”
Master Jin’s mind was broken by his words, his face immediately became somewhat impatient, for a long day, before he sneered again with a leathery smile, “You are indeed clever, as I said, only you are qualified to be my heir, unfortunately, this time, you have used your cleverness in the wrong place, I will wait to see how you die!”
“Maybe it will call for Master Jin to be disappointed again too.” Murong Zhuan held the corners of his mouth, but there was not a hint of laughter in his eyes.
“Hmph, withdraw!” Master Jin snorted coldly, and then led his men away.
Chapter 2386
As soon as they left, Murong Zhuan let go of me and sat down on the sofa with a long sigh of relief.
I gave him a look and turned around to go upstairs.
“I’ve saved your life again, don’t you even say thank you?” Murong Zhuan’s eyes were lightly glazed over, clearly resting with his eyes closed, yet he was aware of my every movement.
If it were any ordinary person, I would have said thank you, but not him.
“Then I really have to thank you for planting such powerful explosives in my house without my knowledge, Mr. Zhuan, if you had detonated them earlier, you wouldn’t have to break your head over such a trivial matter as me not saying thank you now!” I suppressed the indignation in my heart and said sarcastically.
To say you loved me when you obviously wanted to kill my family, I really didn’t know what kind of love that was.
“But I don’t.” Murong argued stubbornly, “The law also has a lighter sentence for attempted crimes, I haven’t done anything yet and you can’t wait to give me the death sentence.”
It was simply a strong argument, “If you had really done it, I wouldn’t have had the chance to speak at all, Murong Zhuan, get it straight, you wanted to kill me, you wanted to kill my family, do I need to remind you of how many people you’ve killed? I’m not even going to overdo it by killing you!”
“Then you can do it.” Murong Zhuan suddenly deflated and broke down as if, “I’m still happier to die in your hands.”
“Crazy.” I spat, not bothering to argue with him any further, and was just about to go upstairs when two thumps of the wooden barn rang out at the door.
Thinking it was Master Jin’s men killing back, I turned my eyes to see that it was Fu Shen Yan’s figure that burst into view.
The two of them glanced at each other in the air, but Fu Shenyan was the first to look away and called to me in a soft voice, “Xiao Shu, come to my side.”
He held a wooden hamster in his hand, but without the bloodthirsty ferocity, as if he was afraid of frightening me, even the speed of his speech was slowed down.
I nodded and quickly trotted over.
Fu Shen Yan opened his arms and held me steady in his embrace.
The familiar smell and temperature, like a century long, can finally get what it wants.
I felt Murong Zhuan’s barbed gaze, and I suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly let go of Fu Shen Yan, reminding, “Quickly go, Murong Zhuan has buried explosives in this house. The bomb!”
With that, I grabbed Fu Shen Yan’s hand and ran outside, without even looking at Murong Zhuan.
However, Fu Shen Yan pulled me back and gently closed his eyes, indicating me to stay calm, then his handsome eyes sank and he looked at Murong Zhuan inside the house.
He had already stood up, and when enemies met, he did not hide his emotions, and his hands and feet were full of hostility towards Fu Shen Yan.
“The police are already on their way, you still have five minutes to escape.” Fu Shen Yan was the first to break the silence.
My heart dropped halfway, it seemed he had already arranged everything.
“Escape?” Murong Zhuan’s eyes darkened, his face hung with a bit of carelessness as he spread his hands and said, “That’s no fun, why don’t we just hand ourselves in here together and get it over with?”
I was still unsure when I saw how close he was to going crazy, so I tugged on Fu Shen Yan’s coat and stressed again, “Let’s go, even Master Jin’s gang has been scared off, we are not ashamed to leave now, it’s hard to make it this far, I can’t afford to have any more accidents.”
Fu Shen Yan however shook his head and told me to relax, “They don’t know Murong Zhuan, he wouldn’t do that.”
