The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife

Ailina picked up the rifle and fired a burst at the Mothman, concentrating the bullets in one spot. Finally, she pierced through the shell and shot into the brain of the Mothman, green blood splattering out, and one Mothman fell dead.

"Hurry." Ailina shouted loudly, as the other side was already pressing in, and now, the other Hidden Guards had also entered the tunnel.

"Commander Ailina, you can come down now." The Hidden Guards below shouted.

"Okay." Ailina took out a grenade, pulled the safety pin, and just as she was about to release the safety lever, a large hand suddenly pressed down tightly from the side. She turned her head to see a tall man in a black mask standing in front of her, his right hand in black rubber gloves tightly gripping her left hand holding the grenade. Ailina immediately recognized that this was Boss Xing. She instinctively resisted, but Boss Xing's strength was beyond her expectation, his hand like a hydraulic press clamping tightly, making it impossible for her to throw the grenade.

Ailina mustered all her Inner Strength, her right hand forming a palm strike aimed directly at Boss Xing's chest, yet the force of the palm strike was like a stone sinking into the sea, as Boss Xing did not react at all, as if the strike was nothing more than a back massage.

Boss Xing suddenly threw a punch, hitting Ailina heavily in the abdomen, the powerful force of the punch almost sending her flying. But since her left hand was still held by Boss Xing, she ended up being pulled back. Compared to their previous encounter, his strength had advanced by leaps and bounds, even... he had already surpassed the Divine Separation stage. In comparison, Ailina was only capable of being beaten in his presence.

Boss Xing lifted his knee abruptly, striking directly at Ailina's chin, which was lethal, and with a swift motion, he snatched the grenade from her hand, tossing it into the open ground door. Below, the Hidden Guards immediately lay prone to avoid the grenade's blast.

"Go quickly." Ailina shouted loudly, blood oozing from her mouth, her eyes unfocused. Boss Xing had almost made a deadly move, rendering her utterly incapable of resisting, and even leaving her life hanging by a thread.

"Go!"

Summoning every ounce of her strength, Ailina suddenly leapt up and forcefully closed the heavy ground door.

Click.

With the sound of metal clicking together, a pale and serene expression appeared on Ailina's face. The ground door was shut, and next... she could finally embrace Death's embrace.

She had no regrets; the moment she entered the Netherworld Palace, she had already considered this kind of outcome. Death was something she had long since disregarded.

Previously, she had playfully asked Ye Shikai, "Aren't you called the Netherworld King? If so, you shouldn't fear death, right?"

Ye Shikai had replied with, "When you die, I'll come to embrace you."

Though facing death now without being able to embrace him once in life, in death... she could embrace him forever after...

"Sir, the self-destruct system of the base has been activated. We don't have time to dismantle the C4 explosives." The Poisonous Concubine hurried to Boss Xing's side, speaking respectfully.

"Then let's go." Boss Xing spoke in a deep, hoarse voice, his piercing eyes continuously fixed on Ailina lying on the ground.

"Take her with us. This woman is still useful to us."

"Yes, sir."

Boom.

With a loud explosion, the building on the ground collapsed with a bang. The base had been reduced to ashes, and tonight, no one would know what had happened here.

....................................

Bai Qi's Relics.

"For a woman like Miss Ji to venture into the relics, I, Tang, truly respect her." Along the way, this Second Young Master Tang continuously lavished praise on Ji Qian, while Wuyan beside them snorted coldly with disdain. These young masters weren't born with silver spoons in their mouths; what they had were "diamond spoons." With noble origins and untold wealth, winning women's hearts was ridiculously easy for them, so... the methods of this Second Young Master Tang for charming women really seemed a bit low.

Relentlessly complimenting someone was utterly useless, especially for Ji Qian, whose heart belonged to Ye Shikai. Tang Nie's actions could only be described as fawning.

"Second Young Master Tang, aren't you afraid?" Wuyan said blandly. In usual circumstances, a random little girl suddenly interrupting would have led Tang Nie to have her kicked out, but with Ji Qian present, he needed to act more gentlemanly. Plus, there was something about Wuyan's demeanor, suggesting she was more than just an ordinary girl. If Tang Nie knew that this eighteen-year-old girl was the famous Sect Leader of the Worm Sect in Huaxia, he'd probably be shocked speechless.

"What kind of talk is that? I've been to quite a few relics, two or three dozen at least." Tang Nie replied casually.

"Then we must rely heavily on you, Second Young Master Tang. After all... there are still many dangers within the relics."

"Naturally."

"Wait a moment, there's someone ahead." Ji Qian pointed ahead and said. Through the thin layer of dust, the silhouettes of dozens of people could be faintly seen. Everyone halted, observing the situation ahead.

"Isn't that the eldest Miss of the Wang Family, Wang Qian?" Tang Nie commented casually upon recognizing the figure.

"Yes." Ji Qian nodded. The Wang Family was one of the four major families in Yanjing, possessing considerable power and naturally interested in Bai Qi's relics.

"Miss Ji, and... this should be Second Young Master Tang, right?" Wang Qian smiled faintly, with a hint of surprise in her eyes. She knew Ji Qian well enough, especially since she was Ye Shikai's ex-girlfriend. How curious it was to see her with Tang Nie, yet Ji Tao and others weren't in sight, and where was Ji Feng?

A flash of deep thought appeared in Wang Qian's eyes. On the day Ji Qian returned, Ji Tao had specially hosted a banquet, inviting the entire high society of Yanjing. And on that day, Wang Qian and Ji Feng had deliberated in a small chamber for a full half-hour...

"Miss Wang, what a coincidence, to meet you here." Ji Qian was well aware of Wang Qian's scheming nature; she was always an ambitious person with deep foresight.

"Indeed, what a surprise to see Miss Ji with Mr. Tang. Are you two...?" Wang Qian deliberately wore a very shocked expression. Naturally, Ji Qian could never be with Tang Nie, and Wang Qian knew this well. Nonetheless, she still tried to "matchmake," knowing this would not only cause pain to Ji Qian but also help win over Tang Nie.

"We just happened to meet on the road, so we're traveling together." Ji Qian stated directly. Sure enough, as those words landed, Tang Nie's expression slightly trembled.

"Since we've met, how about you join us, Miss Wang?" Ji Qian extended her hand, smiling lightly.

"That would be best." Wang Qian stepped forward and extended her hand, and the two women's hands clasped together.

"Miss Ji, why haven't I seen your father?" Along the way, Wang Qian suddenly asked probing.

"I brought a team through this entrance into the relics, while my father took another route with his team."
