The Young Marshal’s Abandoned Wife (109)
Immediately, everyone’s guns were simultaneously aimed at Bai Weiwei and Chen Ru who were standing at the doorway.
Chen Ru’s fingers kept trembling. She was inexperienced and had never encountered such a large-scale situation with so many guns pointed at her.
She couldn’t even speak.
Bai Weiwei was so frustrated with Chen Ru that she almost wanted to shake her by the arms and give her a reminder of her role.
Come on, you are a villain! Be tough. Be angry. Explode!
Threaten her quickly! Torment her!
Otherwise, where would the gold bars come from? Where would the favorability points come from?
Bai Weiwei was so infuriated by this villain that she felt like she was having a heart attack. She gritted her teeth and said in a low voice, “Steady your hand. Hide behind me, and don’t show your head.”
Otherwise, Fu Beizhe, who was a great sharpshooter, could blow Chen Ru’s head off with one shot.
Chen Ru’s voice choked, “I was wrong. I don’t dare. I’ll let you go. Can you spare my life?”
She was really terrified in this grand setting.
Bai Weiwei gnashed her teeth and said in a low voice, “If you dare put down the gun, I’ll turn you into a sieve immediately. Get your act together as a kidnapper. Your predecessors would be rolling in their graves if they saw you like this.”
Chen Ru thought that the hostage and the people who came to rescue the hostage were both terrifying.
She had truly fallen into an abyss.
Coerced by Bai Weiwei, Chen Ru shouted in a compromising manner, “Bai Weiwei is in my hands. If any of you dares to move, I’ll kill her.”
Bai Weiwei immediately cooperated, her face turning a bit paler. Her fingers were gripping tightly, and her brows were furrowed, displaying an indescribable sense of softness and vulnerability.
But she spoke exceptionally sternly, “Don’t mind me. She won’t shoot.”
Chen Ru truly didn’t dare to shoot.
If she had any thoughts of using Bai Weiwei as a hostage to threaten Fu Beizhe earlier, they were completely shattered by the imposing manner of Fu Beizhe’s army.
Not to mention Li Xinghe also led an army here
Now she was very aware of the fact that if anything were to ever happen to Bai Weiwei in her hands, she wouldn’t even be able to escape the country—let alone, she would be able to leave this place. She could have an instant, gruesome death on the spot.
She had many years of life ahead of her, and she couldn’t bear to die.
She wished she could just throw the gun away.
But Bai Weiwei wouldn’t let her. She was simply a demon.
Fu Beizhe waved his hand, ordering everyone to drop their guns. He looked expressionlessly at Chen Ru, “Let her go, and I’ll give you a way out.”
Chen Ru was on the verge of nodding.
But Bai Weiwei firmly held her hand, and Chen Ru was about to cry.
She was riding a tiger now and found it difficult to get off1. There was no way of knowing if she’ll survive, whether she decided to drop the gun or not.
Fu Beizhe’s hand reached into his pocket, placing the gun inside its holster. His demeanor was cold and tense as he looked at the gun resting on Bai Weiwei’s head.
His heartbeat was slightly rising in tension.
Chen Ru’s hand was trembling, and he keenly noticed it.
Chen Ru didn’t have much experience holding a gun; with a little carelessness, the gun could easily go off.
This was a mistake that beginners were prone to commit.
And this mistake was something he couldn’t bear.
Fu Beizhe suppressed the anxiety from making him tremble. He restrained the anger from making him rage. His expression was only dark and calm.
“I’ll be giving you two choices. Release Weiwei, and I’ll make sure to provide a box of gold bars and a guarantee that we won’t trouble you.”
This choice was incredibly tempting.
Chen Ru was moved.
She knew that Fu Beizhe always valued promises, so his words could be believed.
Then she heard Fu Beizhe’s voice, cold as snow.
“The second choice is that if you ever dare to harm her… I’ll kill your whole family, and it would be in the cruelest way.”
Chen Ru had a weakness, and that was that she cared deeply about her own family.
Upon hearing this, her face turned deathly pale. “Fu Beizhe, don’t use my family to threaten me.”
Fu Beizhe had been attacking her family recently.
This was the reason why she completely lost her mind and came to kidnap Bai Weiwei.
1: 骑虎难下 (ride a tiger and find it hard to get off) – used to describe a situation where someone is in a difficult position and finds it hard to extricate themselves. It implies being in a predicament where taking action or making a decision is challenging and potentially risky, similar to riding a tiger—you’re in a dangerous situation and finding a safe way out is difficult.↩
Rika: I never expected that chen Ru would have such affection for her family, kinda nice to see some sense of humane in her lol.
