My Villainous Wife - Chapter 175

Shen Liu rolled out of the table even before Yan Xiaoran could go to him. It was as if his buŧŧ was on fire. He hit his head on the way out and crawled on all fours.

‘Shit! Shit… why is this happening to me?’  ​​

While Shen Liu was asking why two misfortunes already fell on top of his head, he coincidentally collided with Yan Xiaoran.

“Are you alright?” she asked.

Shen Liu swallowed hard, trying to speak as much as he can. But with his anxiety going to the highest peak f the mountain, he bȧrėly could form a word. “I…uh… bo….”

Yan Xiaoran frowned. What’s wrong with him? Since Shen Liu wasn’t about to get his ability to talk, she observed his body first, even under the dark. She could see that he was alright and there seem not anything wrong with him. So, it might be all in his head.

Feeling guilty for bringing him to this place, Yan Xiaoran thought she should be responsible for Shen Liu’s safety.

Shen Liu shook his head like a wet puppy and finally said what he wanted to tell her. “There are bombs under the table!”

Yan Xiaoran did not waste any movements as she went to look down under the table. But as she was about to kneel and lift the tablecloth, Alexander beat her to it.

“Stand up. I’ll check it.” He said.

Alexander looked under and saw nothing. Then he looked up. There, he saw the same view that almost shocked Shen Liu to death.

[00:11:09]

After looking, Alexander stood up from his kneeling position. He disregarded his image and turned back to look at Yan Xiaoran.

“How is it?”

Alexander shook his head. His eyes were grim as he replied, “We have 10 minutes to evacuate everyone.”

Soon, Alexander and Yan Xiaoran moved. They both went to the four brothers standing a few meters away and informed them about the bombs. To not put the crowd into disorder and make the situation worse, the only people they told about these bombs were the brothers.

Being the eldest, Jin Woo thought that he should be responsible to his younger brothers. He quickly took out his gun from inside his jacket and said, “I’ll make way to the door and open it. You guys should ensure your own safety and guide the guests outside.”

“I’ll stay in the rear,” Reo said.

“I’ll stay with Reo,” Lucas added.

Jin Woo nodded. He knew Reo’s skills and didn’t underestimate him. Even Lucas, who was the smallest, was not to be looked down on. He turned towards Alexander and saw that he was only looking at the beautiful woman next to him and sighed.

He said, “As for you… ha… You should keep your wife safe.”

Alexander didn’t utter any objection as he readily nodded.

Long Jie, who did not get any role: “What about me?”

Reo stared at him, “What? You want to stay with me?”

“Who wants to stay with you?!” Long Jie objected and looked at Alexander with pleading eyes. “Third Brother… you’re going to keep me safe, right?”

“Are you not a grown man? Protect yourself instead of asking others.” Alexander coldly glanced at him.

Long Jie, who was abandoned: “….”

‘Why is everyone treating me like this? Am I not their youngest and cutest brother?’

Yan Xiaoran almost laughed out loud if only there weren’t any bombs about to explode in 10 minutes. She turned to Shen Liu, who was trembling in fear and deeply sighed.

“It’s alright.” She patted his shoulder. “We’ll get out of here safely.”

Hearing her say that, Shen Liu reluctantly believed her and looked up at her as if she had a shining halo around her head.

“Yan Xiaoran… you have to promise you’ll take care of me, right?”

Yan Xiaoran smiled gently at him, “I will.”

“Let’s go,” Alexander said.

Soon, the five brothers moved separately. Reo and Lucas went to the other end of the hall while Jin Woo walked to the front door. Jin Woo found that the door was locked from the outside and tried pulling it open with force, but it won’t just budge.

He tried to kick it, testing how strong the door was and when it still didn’t budge under his strength, he finally decided to shoot it with his gun.

‘Bang!’

‘Bang!’

‘Bang!’

And after the first shot, screams of terror soon accompanied it.

“Ahh! That man has a gun!”

“Get away from him!”

The people who were closer to the door retreated with quick steps. They moved away from the Jin Woo and the door.

Jin Woo glanced dangerously at them and thought that these people were too much. He was saving their lives, for goodness sake!

But he considered that they did not know about the bombs and didn’t try to scold them. Besides, if he were to announce that there were bombs under the table, he couldn’t have the freedom to shoot at the door.

And so, he continued his mistreatment to the door.

‘Bang!’

‘Bang!’

At the rear, Reo and Lucas also arrived at their destination. They flipped the tables without making much noise to alert the enemies and started to take the bombs from the tapes that attached them to the table.

Their task was quite dangerous since they will both handle the bombs, which was also why Long Jie did not want to go with them.

“There are about 20 tables in the hall. We should check each one of them and see if there are any bombs attached to them.” Reo said.

Lucas nodded, “I’ll check the right side. You check the left side. Also… try to see if there are any bombs under the chair.” They couldn’t miss anything now. Any moment, the bomb should go off, and all of them could die.

Despite that, Reo and Lucas, who were handling the bombs, weren’t afraid. On the contrary, both of them looked excited in front of the jaws of death.
