Chapter 159 No Need to Wait
"Meng Zhenyue!"
Xie Yanchuan's violent voice was heard in the small and dark space.
At the same time, the extremely terrifying and powerful pressure from the man also reached its peak at this moment.
There was a rage brewing wildly in his eyes, which made Meng Zhenyue's hand, which had just held the knife, tremble unconsciously.
I don’t know if it was the residual force of the bullet or because he was scared by Xie Yanchuan’s terrifying appearance.
Anyway, this was the first time Meng Zhenyue had seen such emotions in Xie Yanchuan since she became conscious.
After all, the man in her memory had once treated her with "tenderness".
Even though such emotions disappeared in a flash, the other party had never shown such a terrifying state in front of her because of these emotions.
So after a brief moment of shock, Meng Zhenyue was quickly swept away by more jealousy and madness. Then, in front of everyone's astonished eyes, she quickly snatched the dagger from Jiang Wanning's hand and put it on the latter's neck.
Jiang Wanning was caught off guard when Meng Zhenyue stabbed her in the abdomen.
The excessive pain had already eroded most of her sanity at that moment.
The bleeding in her abdomen wouldn't stop, and she couldn't seem to stop it even with her hands.
Her body, already filled with coldness, now had the last bit of warmth taken away from her. She seemed to have lost all her strength at this moment, allowing Meng Zhenyue to do whatever he wanted with her.
On the other side, Meng Zhenyue saw that she had taken the initiative. She looked up at Xie Yanchuan and her eyes were filled with pride: "Xie Yanchuan, Jiang Wanning is in my hands now, you...!"
However, before she could finish her slightly smug words, Xie Yanchuan on the opposite side raised his hand again, this time pointing the gun at her forehead.
Meng Zhenyue couldn't believe it: "Aren't you afraid that Jiang Wanning will die here because of you?!"
"You can make a bet: which is faster, your knife or my bullet?"
As he spoke, Xie Yanchuan had already pulled the trigger.
Meng Zhenyue was completely panicked when she saw this.
Of course she didn't dare to gamble. As Xie Yanchuan's former fiancée, she knew the latter's marksmanship too well.
The other party would definitely shoot a bullet through her head before she could take action.
Even though Meng Zhenyue had already prepared herself for death.
But when death really came upon her head, she still felt a sense of overwhelming panic.
Meng Zhenyue's hand holding the knife was shaking badly at this moment: "You can't do this to me, Xie Yanchuan, the old man...!"
But before he could finish his words, another gunshot rang out.
Meng Zhenyue widened her eyes in disbelief, watching Xie Yanchuan walk quickly past the warehouse door and take Jiang Wanning away from her.
At the same time, the dagger she had been holding tightly finally fell down at this moment and rolled into a pool of blood.
And all this happened in just a moment.
Even Shi Wang, who was standing aside, hadn't reacted to what was happening before Meng Zhenyue fell down in front of him.
Xie Yanchuan's move was quick and decisive, not giving anyone a chance to react.
This was probably the first time that Shi Wang had come across such a scene in his twenty-plus years of life.
For a moment, the man who was originally as cold as dust turned as pale as paper.
"Wait, Xie Yanchuan..." He was just about to step forward to stop the other party.
But when he raised his foot, he froze completely in mid-air when he met Xie Yanchuan's frosty and terrifying eyes.
It was as if a pair of invisible hands firmly restrained Shi Wang's heart at that moment, as if if he dared to take another step forward, he would suffer the same fate as Meng Zhenyue behind him.
And at the moment he hesitated, Xie Yanchuan had already hurriedly left the underground warehouse with Jiang Wanning in his arms.
…
"Ningning, don't sleep."
Unlike the man with a violent face in the warehouse just now, Xie Yanchuan, who was rushing out with Jiang Wanning in his arms, lowered his eyes and looked at the person in his arms, his eyes full of panic and heartache, and his tone was so gentle as if he was about to cry in the next second.
God knows how terrified Xie Yanchuan was when he found out Jiang Wanning's location and rushed over, only to see her being stabbed by Meng Zhenyue.
At this moment, he regretted more than ever before. When Jiang Wanning made this suggestion, why didn't he be more firm and stop her?
As long as she insisted, Jiang Wanning would not have taken the risk and suffered such serious injuries.
Xie Yanchuan hated it.
If only he could be a little stronger.
If he could be stronger enough to help her avoid all these unknown dangers, would she never have to face such a thing again?
…
It seemed as if a drop of hot and wet liquid fell on Jiang Wanning's face.
Her already dizzy consciousness returned for a moment.
She vaguely felt the warmth behind her, which formed a sharp contrast with the coldness in her abdomen that was trying to take away all the heat from her body.
No matter how hard Jiang Wanning tried, her increasingly heavy eyelids eventually took away her last bit of consciousness.
Jiang Wanning tried her best to think.
If only I could open my eyes.
I can comfort Xie Yanchuan and tell him that I am fine.
I'm just a little sleepy. I'll take a nap and wake up soon.
But unfortunately, Jiang Wanning was unable to say these words in the end.
The solid chest behind her was so warm that she couldn't help but shrink a little tighter against it despite feeling cold all over. At the same time, she couldn't hold it in any longer and fell into a deep sleep.
Jiang Wanning slept for a long time.
It was so long that she even dreamed of a younger and smaller version of Xie Yanchuan.
The man at that time seemed far less calm and solemn than he is now. He stood in front of her, looking very immature and shy, with his head lowered.
…
About the same time.
On the other side, in the most luxurious hotel banquet hall in Beijing.
The originally silent atmosphere among the crowd, like watching a play, finally became noisy again as the clock on the wall ticked by.
Someone in the crowd looked at Mr. Xie, who was resting his eyes on the stage, and asked, "Mr. Xie, it's almost half past eight. Is Mr. Xie really playing a trick on us?"
"That's right. I've been waiting since this morning. Even if the Xie family is powerful in Beijing, they should give us an explanation, right?"
"It's already this late. In my opinion, there's no need to wait any longer!"
