Chapter 121: Stay Still, Don't Move
In the midst of the fight, Fang Yu was unaware that nearby the food stall, two women were almost crying in desperation.
One was the graceful and charming Xu Zhaopei, and the other was the mature and composed Shao Xin.
Both were scratching their heads in anxiety, yet helpless.
"Shao Xin senior, will that Boss Gu really help?" Xu Zhaopei asked worriedly.
"Hopefully. I think Boss Gu's attitude towards Fang Yu is not ordinary; their relationship should also be deep," said Shao Xin full of hope.
"What if he doesn't help?" Xu Zhaopei was burning with impatience.
"I'll call him again," said Shao Xin.
At this point, she wasn't going to worry about whether it was appropriate or not; after all, a life was at stake.
Just then—
A military vehicle came speeding over, like a tiger, and stopped in front of the food stall.
A soldier jumped out of the vehicle, his face stern and his eyebrows furrowed.
"Is it you?" Xu Zhaopei recognized the man at a glance. It was he who was dining with Yan Hu and helped Fang Yu deal with Lin Kun during her first dinner with Fang Yu at the Eastern Pearl restaurant.
"Isn't this the sister-in-law? We meet again; my name is Tang Yan."
Seeing the serious and cold Tang Yan appear, Xu Zhaopei didn't care anymore and ran up to him.
Hearing this title made Shao Xin's heart skip a beat; they really were in a relationship...
Tang Yan quickly gestured to stop his brothers behind him.
"Quick, save Fang Yu..." Xu Zhaopei cried out, her tears flowing. She barely had time to explain before stating what she wanted.
"I'm already aware of this, don't worry," Tang Yan hastily comforted, "Get in the vehicle, let's charge in!"
"Yes!" The group of brothers behind him climbed into the vehicle.
Xu Zhaopei and Shao Xin, both confused, didn't have time to ask how he knew about the situation and followed them onto the vehicle.
…
…
As dusk fell, near the dimly lit little black room.
Blood had formed a winding river on the ground, and Jiang Shijie was sprawled on the floor like a dead dog, motionless.
Fang Yu's eyes were fixed on Lu Youxun ahead of him.
He chuckled coldly and said, "Who gave you the confidence to say I'm certain to die?"
But then, Lu Youxun took a step back, his left hand reaching into his pocket, let out a pained smile, and soon pulled out a dark object—gun.
Pointing it at Fang Yu's head, he said viciously, "Because of this!"
Seeing that gun, Fang Yu's mouth twitched, and his face showed a sinister smirk.
At this point, Fang Yu was determined.
Lu Youxun.
Must die!
It felt different from his sentiments in the past. Back then, as a part of the family, Lu Youxun was despicable, but after all, he was kin, and he couldn't bring himself to kill!
Now, Lu Youxun had become even darker and more vicious.
Without the ties of kinship, devoid of human emotion.
Selfish and deceitful, with a dark heart!
So tell me, shouldn't such a scum die?
Fang Yu's murderous intent grew stronger, and his right fist gradually withdrew. Lu Youxun felt the breath of death emanating from him.
"Do you truly think you can kill me?" Lu Youxun laughed coldly, shaking the weapon in his hand, "Too bad it's too late!"
"It is very late," Fang Yu sneered coldly, his blood boiling violently.
"Do you really think you can overcome what's in my hand?" Lu Youxun clenched his teeth, ready to pull the trigger.
Bang!
The sound was like a stone falling in the mountains, producing a muffled noise.
But, Fang Yu remained unscathed in his spot.
When Lu Youxun felt a sharp pain in his left arm, he realized what had happened.
His hand shook, and the gun fell.
Yes, it was just before Lu Youxun managed to pull the trigger, someone behind him had fired a shot, accurately hitting Lu Youxun's arm.
Damn it!
Lu Youxun glared in fury, trying to pick up the weapon from the ground.
As he bent over, Fang Yu's hand involuntarily rested on the Mandala Flower on his chest. Fang Yu saw the rescue team had arrived, it was the military man he had met briefly at the Eastern Pearl Restaurant, who seemed to have quite the status to be able to freely enter this place. Heh, he really does have some connections.
"Don't move!"
A harsh shout came from behind.
Lu Youxun, who hadn't yet touched his weapon, shivered and bent down, but he did not continue to lower himself, instead, he was startled by the shout and involuntarily turned his head to look back.
"Who are you?" Lu Youxun turned his head and asked with alarm.
Clutching his injured arm, he saw a bulky, mature military officer slowly walking towards him. In his hand, he held something dark and indistinct. Clearly, it was he who had just aimed a cold gun from behind.
Also, behind the military officer, there were two breathtakingly beautiful women, crying and with faces full of worry. Seeing the scene before them, they were completely petrified, their teeth chattering. The Fang Yu they were worried about stood in front of them, unharmed.
"Lu Youxun! If you don't want to die, I advise you not to move!" Tang Yan's eyes flashed with a trace of coldness as he bellowed.
"How dare you!" Lu Youxun shouted loudly, "Do you know who you've offended?"
"Still stubborn?" Tang Yan sneered, "A creature that's not even as good as a beast, completely devoid of any human dignity, just a dog."
Lu Youxun's eyes reddened and he said, "You—"
He stumbled.
Staggering backwards from Tang Yan's vicious words, he nearly couldn't stand his ground.
Bang!
Indeed. Tang Yan pulled the trigger once more, and a ferociously deadly bullet entered Lu Youxun's chest like a bolt of lightning.
Lu Youxun grunted and fell to his knees.
"I'll say it again. Don't move!"
Good heavens, I damn well didn't want to move!!
But at that moment, he was like a frail old man in his twilight years, unable to support his body any longer.
His right hand disabled, his left hand shot, and now hit in the chest, he felt life slipping away. All he could do was to glare at Tang Yan.
"Still moving?! Do you think I'm blind?"
Bang!
"——" Lu Youxun's eyes bulged, his heart damnably stifled. If he could shout, he would certainly yell: I damn well didn't move!
...
...
As Fang Yu had said, everyone who had seen the Mandala died. But who could have expected that his killer would not be Fang Yu?
"What a waste." Tang Yan said with contempt, "Lu Youxun, for violating laws and murdering recklessly, committing heinous crimes, you are executed on the spot by me!"
As these words fell.
Lu Youxun's face turned ashen.
Is this turning the tables, using his own methods against him?
Suddenly, Lu Youxun plunged to the ground headfirst, lifeless.
"Fang Yu—" The concern Xu Zhaopei could no longer contain burst forth, tears flowing like the unstoppable flooding of the Yellow River. She ran up and hugged Fang Yu, constantly sobbing.
An inexplicable feeling stirred in Fang Yu's heart. He extended his rough old hand to Xu Zhaopei's shoulder and gently patted it, saying: "See, I'm fine, ain't I? I promised you I'd come back unscathed."
Xu Zhaopei sobbed silently.
Who would have thought that Xu Zhaopei, who had been through several major events, was feeling at the moment.
She dared to say that in her past twenty years, she had not gone through as many twists and turns, nor felt such stimulation and fear, as she had in these past few months with Fang Yu.
Fortunately, Fang Yu was alright.
During the last assassination attempt, Fang Yu got her to drive out, and he was fine.
Now, captured in this special place (mosaic location), he was also fine.
After comforting Xu Zhaopei, Fang Yu's gaze wandered and turned mildly towards Shao Xin, his senior, behind him, saying, "Thank you."
Shao Xin spoke softly, "As long as you're okay, everything is good!"
Who could have known that his former arch-rival was such a person of deep loyalty, and a woman at that.
She was truly brave.
Women can match men in toughness.
Hidden beside the small dark room, Jiang Shijie's blood had almost stopped flowing.
Realizing how serious his mistake was as he felt life ebbing away, Jiang Shijie saw a silhouette standing indistinctly before him in his dying moments—
"Jiang Shijie, the biggest mistake of my life was marrying you... and the best decision I ever made was divorcing you!"
