Chapter 190 - 190 Unforeseen Turn Of Events
190 Unforeseen Turn Of Events
All was quiet, both inside and outside the room. Everyone held their breath and focused on the sounds outside the door.
Shen Yin hoped that it was Wu Zheng and the others. At least they had guns and would not face the criminals unarmed.
However, her hopes were destined to be dashed.
She could clearly hear her own heartbeat. Soon, the person outside seemed to lose his patience. He kicked the door open with a bang.
The thugs behind the door, armed with tasers and knives, swarmed toward the person at the door.
Lian Jing held a gun in his hand. With a cold gaze, he shot an approaching person and broke his leg.
The others did not dare to move. Their eyes filled with terror when they saw Lian Jing’s cold face.
This person was like Death. They had no doubt that if they dared to move again, he would take their lives next.
Only Fourth Brother quietly put his hands behind his back and swiped his fingers back and forth on the phone screen.
Shen Yin could not speak, but she could not watch him send a message without doing something about it. She suddenly leaned forward and knocked her forehead heavily against his phone, causing it to fall to the ground.
Fourth Brother immediately turned around and glared at her angrily. He swiftly placed the knife against her neck and threatened Lian Jing, “Give me the gun, or I’ll kill her!”
Lian Jing narrowed his eyes. He was about to explode with rage. He looked at the hooligan expressionlessly and flung his gun aside. “You want it? Then get it yourself.”
“Aren’t you afraid that she’ll die?” The hooligan gritted his teeth and glared at Lian Jing, his eyes wary. “Tell the police outside to let us go. Otherwise, my knife might slip and she might die instantly”
His messy hair blocked Shen Yin’s line of sight. She could not see Lian Jing’s expression clearly, but she still shook her head slightly at him.
When she first encountered these criminals, she had already prepared herself to die.
She was not afraid of death. Even without her, Shen Nian would grow up safely with Lian Jing.
However, these thugs would not change. Their hands were stained with blood. They could not be allowed to escape and harm innocent people!
Lian Jing understood the determined look on Shen Yin’s face, and his heart ached.
He must not lose her like that. Even if he had to give up everything, including his life, he must let her live.
He slowly took out his phone and pretended to call the police outside. His eyes were fixed on the dagger at Shen Yin’s neck. “I can call them, but you have to put down the knife.”
The hooligan sneered. “You have no right to negotiate with me!”
Lian Jing knew that the only way to save Shen Yin now was to pretend that he did not care about her. If the other party realized Shen Yin’s value, it would really kill her.
He pretended to look away coldly and said calmly, “It’s the same for all of you. If I don’t let you go, all of you will have to stay and die with me today! My request is very simple. Drop the knife and I’ll immediately call the police outside!”
The hooligan hesitated for a moment and loosened his grip a little. Shen Yin seized her chance and suddenly used her head to knock aside the man behind her. She fell backwards, still tied to the stool.
When the back of her head hit the floor heavily, Shen Yin felt her vision go black. However, she had no time to hesitate. She kicked aside the hooligan who rushed over, spat out the loose rag in her mouth, and shouted, “Lian Jing, grab your gun!”
Lian Jing did not let her down. He did not waste the time that she had fought so hard to obtain. He picked up the pistol that he had thrown into the corner and shot the hooligan’s arm.
Blood spurted out and splattered on Shen Yin, but she could not care less about her image. She trembled as she looked at the secret door that had suddenly opened.
A group of criminals with knives suddenly rushed in. The man in the lead held Shen Nian tightly in his arms.
“Fortunately, we found this. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to save you.” The man sneered and lifted Shen Nian’s chin. “Is this child from your family? He looks so similar to you. He came to us himself. It’s not our fault!”
“Nian Nian!” Shen Yin had been calm since the beginning of this kidnapping incident, but now she suddenly lost her rationality. She lay on the ground and raised her head, trying her best to check every part of Shen Nian’s body. “Don’t hurt him. I can be your hostage. You can have me in exchange for him, okay?”
“Mom! No!” Shen Nian hated himself for being careless.
He had tracked Shen Yin’s cell phone and entered the secret passage. However, he lost his way inside and was caught by this group of drug lords.
If he had not been so useless, they would not be able to threaten his mother now!
The little child’s eyes were filled with determination. Shen Nian focused on Shen Yin and Lian Jing one last time and smiled gratefully. “Nian Nian is very happy to have Mom by my side all these years. Dad, you must be good to Mom. Don’t let me down. I won’t let anyone have the chance to hurt Mom, let alone let anyone use me to threaten Mom!”
“Nian Nian! Don’t do anything stupid!” Shen Yin saw the grim determination in his eyes and shouted loudly, afraid that he would give up his young life so as not to implicate her.
