It was already very late at night, and A Yuan should have had dinner, but he only ate a few bites of fried chicken.
Logically, he should never drink cola; at this time, he would normally have already finished listening to the story and fallen asleep.
But he was exceptionally well-behaved; even though he was extremely sleepy, he didn't make a fuss and just sat there obediently.
Since he said he was waiting for his mother, it proves that he knew she had gone to a dangerous place. However, he neither looked for Nie Zhao nor asked anyone else to bring his mother back; he just waited obediently.
Nie Yao had seen other people's children before, some of whom were crying, some were making a fuss, and some were annoying. But this was the first time he had seen A Yuan so well-behaved. He even had the illusion that he, a single man, could take care of such a child.
The child was anxious, and so was he. Secretary An had gone out again, and he couldn't stand it any longer, so he knocked on the door.
Wade quickly opened the living room door and asked, "Second Master, is there something you need?"
Nie Yao was tall, and looking over him at Nie Zhao, he didn't know how to ask, so he just asked, "Isn't it over yet?"
Of course, Nie Zhao only rolled his eyes at him, Wade said sorry, and closed the door.
Nie Yao turned around and saw that A Yuan had slipped off the sofa at some point and was standing behind him.
He picked up the child, and in his haste, he walked around in the stairwell, which eventually lulled A Yuan to sleep.
The little guy was perched on his shoulder, his mouth still pursed and stained with brown dirt.
Nie Yao leaned closer and smelled it. Okay, it was cola syrup.
Inside the room, Nie Zhao wanted to crush his earphones, but the phone kept ringing.
Bob, Nie Zhao remembered that guy, a young man in his late twenties.
They actually said he was old, ugly, and skinny?
Nie Zhao wished he could go to the scene himself, knock that bastard down with two punches, and show him just how strong he really was.
But of course, deep down he admits that he's just a weakling.
He couldn't imagine what that basement looked like, while his wife was currently engaged in a bloody battle.
It sounds like a long time, but it actually only takes a few dozen seconds.
At Chen Rou's signal, A Kang stood at the door and grasped the doorknob.
Chen Rou still held the dagger to Bob's throat with one hand, while the other hung limply at her side, holding a knife that had been wiped clean again. Of course, no matter how vigilant she was, she couldn't do two things at once.
Bob, overconfident, only brought a handgun with him when he arrived.
The gun had originally been taken by A-Kang, but Chen Rou took it back and tucked it into her waistband.
Even if a knife is fast, it can't outrun a gun, right? And even if it could, what about two guns?
Tom must have realized something was wrong, because their laser gates are usually left open.
Not only was the laser door closed, but even after he had kept the ventilation fan running for so long, there was still a strong smell of blood in the corridor.
Moreover, Chen Rou was too prolific; before A Kang could even wipe her away the blood, it had already started flowing out.
There was no sound outside, but Ah Kang could hear it. He gestured with his hand to let Chen Rou know that the person was already outside the door.
Of course, Chen Rou heard it immediately too; there was a faint click, which was Tom outside opening the insurance.
At the same time, because Chen Rou was distracted, Bob also immediately grabbed a gun.
In the end, he and Tom fired at the same time, and one of them was bound to hit Chen Rou and kill her.
This beautiful yet ruthless, death-like woman—it would be a real shame to kill her.
But there's no way around it; either she dies today, or Bob dies.
Tom kicked the door open, but at the same time he kicked, Kang was pulling it in. Tom's strength had already been released, and of course, he couldn't stop it. The door was wide open, and he suddenly rushed in, along with Chen Rou's knife that she instantly drew.
This time she was using only one hand, so of course she could only slash people but not behead them.
But as she slashed with her longsword, she dropped it and ran away from Bob.
In the blink of an eye, she was behind Tom, but the dagger in her hand was still against Tom's neck.
She hesitated for a moment, then sheathed her knife, snatched the gun from Tom's hand, turned around, and aimed at Bob behind her.
Bob was also holding a gun, with the safety off, and pulled the trigger without hesitation.
Afraid that Chen Rou was about to be blown up in the head, Ah Kang dodged to block it, but then he couldn't help but laugh.
Bob pulled the trigger, but the bullet didn't fire as he expected.
He subconsciously shook his head before realizing that Chen Rou had moved the magazine and removed the bullets.
Even now, Tom's eyes are still open, his eyelids are still blinking, and blood is still gushing from his throat.
He was still conscious, and probably couldn't understand how he could have died like that.
Bob was devastated, because Tom's life could have been exchanged for his. If he hadn't lingered in the fight and had jumped onto the ceiling to escape, he could have survived.
However, he was bewitched by Chen Rou, or perhaps he was just too stupid.
Because he didn't see Chen Rou unload the bullets, he assumed that the bullets in his gun were still inside.
Chen Rou set a trap for him, making him think that killing her would be easy, and he ended up falling into it.
What else can be done? This woman can kill with both a long knife and a short knife.
Especially the way the Phoenix Saber cleaved the throat—it was clean and swift.
Bob finally gave up resisting completely and obediently followed Chen Rou back to her office, where he picked up his phone.
Sir James was getting increasingly anxious: "BOB, why haven't you answered the phone for so long?"
Bob remained expressionless, his voice cold: "Go to the toilet."
Sir James believed him and asked, "Does that mean Colonel Rango isn't coming over tonight?"
