Chapter 314: Who Threatens Who
As soon as Yan Jue finished speaking, the psychic he brought with him received the order and walked directly towards Shen Yang.
The girl who had been keeping her head down looked up at the group of people in astonishment, and finally realized their true purpose.
Like a hen protecting her chicks, she rushed out and stood in front of the bed, waving the tray vigorously to block the two approaching people.
Don't get near him!
There was a voice in her heart roaring madly, the girl's eyes were red, and she had no intention of giving in.
"Hey, is this girl trying to be a hero and save the damsel in distress?" Yan Jue laughed heartily at the girl's actions. "Look, the eldest young master of the Shen family actually has to rely on a woman for protection! Hahahahaha!"
He laughed, and the people who followed him laughed too, and the ironic laughter echoed in the room.
"Hey." Shen Yang lowered his voice and spoke to the girl standing in front of the bed, "Help me up."
The girl looked back at him - he was seriously injured and couldn't even stand up on his own. Now he was forced into a desperate situation with no way to retreat.
Once you understand this, girls will no longer be afraid.
She threw the tray in her hand towards Yan Jue who was laughing.
The man was close by and was smiling happily. He was caught off guard and was hit in the face by the tray thrown by the girl. The hit was neither light nor heavy, but it successfully made him stop smiling.
He wiped his face and saw the girl bending down to help Shen Yang, but he was not in a hurry and just watched leisurely.
He just loved to watch his prey struggle to death.
What would a loser like Shen Yang do even if he stood up? With so many people here today, even if he had ten hands, he wouldn't be able to escape.
With the girl's support, the young man successfully stood on the ground.
He bent slightly in pain and took a breath.
The newly changed bandage was stained with blood again, but he ignored it and looked up at the group of people opposite him.
"You want to force me to give up the leadership of the base? Fine." He stared at Yan Jue and smiled. "I'm curious, now that the Shen family has withdrawn, who are you going to find to take over this position?"
Obviously, the other party was just a second-rate playboy, but when he was stared at by him, Yan Jue inexplicably felt a little guilty.
He stuttered for a moment and blurted out: "This, this kind of thing is none of your business!"
"I don't care, I'm just curious." His body was trembling slightly, and he spoke with a lack of energy, but his tone was calm, without a trace of flaw. "Who have you taken a fancy to? Could it be Luo Rui and Xie Chengzhi who came back a few days ago?"
His tone was frivolous, as if their prioritizing Luo Rui and Xie Chengzhi was foolish. Yan Jue angrily said, "Luo Rui is the eldest daughter of the Luo family in Nanjun County and has the Luo family's support. She's also quite capable, and Xie Chengzhi is also a high-level water-based psychic—in what ways are they not better than you? What qualifications do you have to question our decision?!"
"So you all know that Luo Rui is from the Luo family in Nanjun?" He was certain that these people weren't stupid, they had no brains at all. "You are really... hopelessly stupid."
"You said--" Yan Jue took a step forward angrily, and heard a sharp loud noise coming from outside - after the loud noise, flames broke out and debris flew everywhere.
The entire manor shook at the explosion.
The girl was frightened by the sudden explosion and hunched her shoulders. Because of the person who was supporting her, she restrained herself from running away.
The hand on her shoulder patted her twice as if to comfort her, and the young man whispered softly: "Don't be afraid."
She looked up at him, right into his dark eyes.
My pounding heart suddenly calmed down.
She raised the corner of her mouth slightly, telling him that she was not afraid.
The young man patted her shoulder again and looked away at the panicked provocateur opposite him.
It was just a small explosion, and he panicked? This kind of idiot, don't you really think that the Luo family will promote him when they get promoted?
…
"What's going on outside?!"
The sound of the explosion was very close, probably inside the Shen family manor. Yan Jue looked at the dancing light and shadow outside the window and said angrily: "Send someone out to take a look!"
Is it possible that besides them, there is someone else who is also eyeing the Shen family?
"No need to look." Before the man left, Shen Yang said, "I planted the bomb."
He chuckled leisurely, his expression aloof and unfazed, like someone facing a mountain collapse. "So that when necessary, I can perish together with fools with ulterior motives like you."
Yan Jue's eyes widened in disbelief: "W-what do you mean?!"
"Aside from the one that just exploded, I've planted a total of eighteen bombs beneath the three walls of this villa and base." The man shook his left hand, allowing everyone to see the watch on his hand. "I had Chen Bai modify the controller. As long as it can't sense my pulse, the eighteen bombs will explode immediately. Of course, the bombs will also explode if I press the button. Do you want to try it?"
"You!" Yan Jue didn't expect the man to hold back like this. His face flushed red and he pointed at him, "Shen Yang! You actually joked about the tens of thousands of lives at the base!"
"As long as you leave obediently, no one in the base will die." Shen Yang said calmly, "Didn't I tell you that there are bombs buried in the villa too? The one just now was buried in the back garden. If you don't believe me, I can blow up a few more for you to hear."
As he spoke, he reached out to touch his watch.
"Stop!" Yan Jue was shocked and angry, his voice trembling, "Do you want to kill everyone here?"
"If I don't kill you, you'll kill me... If that's the case, why not die together? What do you think, Vice President Yan?"
He had never expected that he would be so ruthless as to even count his own life for it. Yan Jue didn't want to give up his life here, and he couldn't let the man blow up the city wall. He could only grit his teeth and ask, "What do you want?"
"Me?" Knowing that the man was about to give in, Shen Yang endured the pain of his chest muscles tearing and said word by word, "I want you to withdraw from the Shen family, and... cough cough!"
There was a fishy-sweet taste in his throat, and he was interrupted by a cough while talking.
The man bent over slightly and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Just as he looked away, Yan Jue suddenly moved.
He was a speed-type mutant. After activating his superpowers, he was next to the young man in the blink of an eye.
He kicked away the girl who was supporting the young man, and saw her hit the wall and slide to the ground motionless. Yan Jue laughed contemptuously, grabbed the young man's left hand, and with a little force, he twisted his arms behind his back and pressed him to the ground.
"You were so proud just now, Young Master Shen?" Yan Jue restrained the young man and let out a ferocious smile. "Don't worry, I won't let you touch the switch, and I won't let you die easily..."
He looked at his companions and ordered: "Break his hands and feet for me. Remember, don't let him die!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a shadow bypassed the crowd and rushed towards him.
Before he could come to his senses, he felt a pain in his chest, just like when he kicked the innocent girl just now. He was kicked in the chest and kicked away.
The man smashed down on the table, crushing the sturdy table to pieces.
Before everyone came back to their senses, the only sound in the room was Yan Jue's painful groans.
After kicking the man away, the girl cautiously reached out to help the young man who was coughing up blood: "Brother, how are you?"
The young man had little strength and could only stand with the help of her.
She saw his bloodstained shirt and pale face, and a flash of pain flashed in her eyes: "Brother, I'll help you to the bed..."
He covered his lips, and when he coughed, blood dripped through his fingers.
"Jiang Ran..." He murmured her name, "You, what are you doing... It's very dangerous here now..."
"Brother, don't say anything for now." Jiang Ran's eyes were red as she helped him to the bed. "Lie down first. I've asked Si Xu to find a doctor..."
He looked at her, saw her red eyes, and after a long moment, he breathed a sigh of relief and said in a hoarse voice, "Jiang Xiaoran, you're back."
