Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife-Chapter 399 Countdown

Surrounded by unfamiliar men with taser guns, Adelle and Xuan Yi, who had never been in such a dangerous situation, felt faint and cried inside her heart. Was it necessary for them to be included in this deadly event?

But unfortunately, they had no choice over the matter because they were tricked and forced to stay in that place along with the others.

On the other hand, Ran Xueyi, who had been in the Underworld during her stay in Ren Country due to Jian Yiling's business and lifestyle, was not so afraid of being pointed with a real gun, much less a taser gun which could only knock down people to sleep.

However, it was precisely because of the effect it would bring to her that she was being cautious against these people.

After all, once they were shot and fell unconscious, they would be taken somewhere else where they would be 'punished' according to what she remembered in the past.

Anyway, there's still a minute before Song Yu Han's plan could happen. So, among the three girls, Ran Xueyi was the first to step forward and pushed the other two behind her back.

"What are you doing?"

Surprisingly, as soon as she pushed them behind her, Adelle pulled on her arm and questioned her with a pale face.

"I'm trying to protect you," Ran Xueyi said a matter of factly.

Adelle, however, suddenly pulled her so she could stand in front and said, "I'm your manager, since when did managers hide behind their artists?!"

Is this really the time to be acting manager and artist?

Besides, looking at her trembling legs that resembled a fawn, Ran Xueyi had a hard time believing her words of protection. She was even more afraid that any second now, Adelle would have a heart attack and faint. It would be more difficult to protect and look after her if that happened.

Ran Xueyi was about to persuade Adelle to let her handle this, but another surprise appeared in front of her.

Xuan Yi, like a vibrating phone, stood beside Adelle, creating an illusion of a human wall with Ran Xueyi behind them.

"I'll protect you too…"

Ran Xueyi: "..."

A minute was not too long, but in a dire situation where life was at stake, one would even think that an eternity has passed. The hands of clock moved so slowly that when the three were arguing who would take the center position, the guards who surrounded them were like goose eating melon

Eating Melon: Gossipmongers/onlookers who like to watch fights/drama/love quarrels.

They never thought that a scene like this where three females fight who should be first to be executed would happen in front of their eyes.

But as much as they wanted to continue watching the ridiculous scene before them, they still have missions to complete, and that is to capture these women and bring them back to Mr. Qing.

The guards tacitly looked at each other and understood the meaning in their eyes.

They should capture these women while they're unguarded!

Two steps, three steps, four steps forward… The guards silently shortened the distance between them.

When they were sure that they could sandwich the ladies, the guards moved to grab them.

However, before they could touch any one of the ladies, Ran Xueyi made use of her training and quickly countered his hand by grabbing it before twisting it towards another guard approaching them.

Whilst doing this, Ran Xueyi pulled both Adelle and Xuan Yi behind her to the wall, regardless of their protest and starting attacking the guards trying to grab them.

One versus several men with arms was never fair. It was easy to see that things were looking bad for them. e from the guards but behind Ran Xueyi.

Ran Xueyi looked back behind her for a split second and said, "Yu Han gave it to me."

It was the kitchen knife he stole from the kitchen which he handed out to her in secret before moving separately.

That answer was enough for her question. Adelle had no doubts.

As expected, the Big Boss still protects and cares about Ran Xueyi even if he's not around!

Adelle confirmed Song Yu Han's love to Ran Xueyi once more and relaxed.

"Heh, even if you have a knife, will you even be able to escape our guns?" a guard taunted and raised his taser gun at them.

-Bang!

A kick sliced through the air and the gun that the guard was holding in his hand fell to the floor with a clatter.

Ran Xueyi grinned at the man and taunted back, "You were saying?"

There's only 15 seconds left...

The guard was provoked but before he could run to her, another guard stopped him. "Don't be a fool. You don't have a gun and she has a knife. Do you want to be sliced into ribbons?"

Besides, this woman also showed her expertise in martial arts and fearlessness despite seeing their guns. 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢

No matter how strong an opponent turns out to be, once the other side shows their fearlessness and indifference, the strong opponent will feel a sense of insecurity and start to raise up their guard.

The guard who stopped the other guard was wary towards Ran Xueyi because even though they were surrounded and most of them held a gun in their hands, she didn't show fear and the flames burning in her eyes were not extinguished as if… as if she was waiting for something…

But what?

The smart guard didn't have enough time to think nor did the other guards do anything. They only heard the woman in front of them count down to 0 and smiled wickedly at them.

At the same time, a shrill sound of alarm pierced through the peaceful villa accompanied by the sound of a loud explosion and smell of smoke.

-BANG!
