Chapter 156 The Child is Yours, Pei Jiuyan
Chen Boxu didn't know if he was already used to Yun Zhaozhao's sharp tongue, or if he felt that since Yun Zhaozhao was now in his hands, it didn't matter if he let her scold him a few times. In any case, he didn't get angry. On the contrary, he seemed a little happy.
"Am I as cunning as Pei Jiuyan? I haven't even used half of the tricks he used."
"You don't need to compare yourself to him. Or are dogs just like to compete for attention?"
Yun Zhaozhao didn't back down at all, leaving Chen Boxu speechless. He couldn't help but reach out to pinch Yun Zhaozhao's face, but Yun Zhaozhao slapped his hand away.
"Don't touch me."
Now, Chen Boxu's face turned cold. He felt that he had been too good to Yun Zhaozhao, to the point that she dared to be so disrespectful.
He gave his subordinate a wink, and the man understood and stepped forward, grabbing Yun Zhaozhao's hand and dragging her forward.
"Boss, are we really leaving?"
They've been delayed for too long; the police are probably on their way.
Upon hearing this, Chen Boxu quickened his pace. Although he had arranged an escape route, all of that was contingent on leaving the capital. Only by going abroad would he be truly safe.
The car he found appeared to be abandoned, but it was actually still usable, and this was the fastest way to leave the capital.
However, to his surprise, Pei Jiuyan arrived even before the police.
His pupils contracted the moment he saw Pei Jiuyan.
"Pei Jiuyan, are you here to die?"
He wasn't the only one with this question; Yun Zhaozhao had the same question. What on earth was this person doing? He was so badly injured, didn't he know to rest?
Yun Zhaozhao's gaze fell on his disheveled face. His right hand had been given emergency treatment, but it was still bleeding.
Their eyes met, and Yun Zhaozhao saw relief in Pei Jiuyan's eyes.
Pei Jiuyan gave her a reassuring look before turning to Chen Boxu: "The person you're dealing with is me. Let her go."
Hearing his words, Chen Boxu sneered: "Pei Jiuyan, have you misunderstood something? I hold the initiative now, and I am the one who sets the rules. You are not in a position to negotiate with me."
Chen Boxu was not afraid of Pei Jiuyan at all at this moment. With Yun Zhaozhao in his hands, he was not worried at all.
"You refused to choose between yourself and your daughter before, so what about now?"
As soon as Chen Boxu finished speaking, he pulled Yun Zhaozhao over and grabbed her by the neck: "Now what do you want to choose?"
"Don't touch her!"
Although Pei Jiuyan was in a sorry state, his aura remained undiminished, and even became more intimidating.
Chen Boxu used to be on good terms with Pei Jiuyan, but he only knew that Pei Jiuyan was ruthless. However, the two had never faced each other directly. At this moment, seeing Pei Jiuyan, who looked like a vicious wolf, he couldn't help but be startled. No wonder no one wanted to confront Pei Jiuyan. This person was really terrifying.
"Don't come any closer."
Seeing that Pei Jiuyan was about to come over, Chen Boxu tightened his grip on Yun Zhaozhao's hand, and Pei Jiuyan indeed stopped in his tracks.
Chen Boxu laughed triumphantly. So what if Pei Jiuyan is fierce? As long as Yun Zhaozhao is in his hands, Pei Jiuyan is like a snake whose vital spot is being held, unable to move.
The sound of sirens blared all around. Yun Zhaozhao said, "You can't escape. Don't make another mistake."
As soon as she finished speaking, Chen Boxu applied a little force to her hand, and Yun Zhaozhao felt pain and was unable to speak.
"Chen Boxu!"
Pei Jiuyan clenched her hands tightly, as if she couldn't feel the pain in them.
He couldn't bear to see Yun Zhaozhao suffer even the slightest harm, yet Yun Zhaozhao was currently being manipulated by Chen Boxu.
Although Chen Boxu was insane, not all of his men were either. They didn't want to die, and they panicked when they heard the sirens.
"Boss, let's go first."
If we don't leave now, it will really be too late.
They still have a chance to survive while the waters haven't been completely surrounded.
Although Chen Boxu wanted Pei Jiuyan to pay the price, he didn't want to lose his own life. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's go!"
He gave the order, and a group of people led Yun Zhaozhao toward the wrecked ship. Pei Jiuyan didn't dare to stop them at all.
As they passed Pei Jiuyan, Chen Boxu said, "Bring President Pei along."
More people means more leverage, which will make it easier to negotiate with the police later.
Moreover, Pei Jiuyan's identity is unusual, so the police will be even more wary.
Pei Jiuyan was more than happy to go, and without needing Chen Boxu's men to invite him, he followed along on his own. Seeing this, Yun Zhaozhao couldn't help but yell, "Pei Jiuyan, have you really lost your mind?"
Chen Boxu hates him so much, what good can come of him falling into Chen Boxu's hands? He's already half-dead, and he might not even survive in the end.
Hearing Yun Zhaozhao's angry rebuke, Pei Jiuyan simply smiled.
He made a effort to walk to Yun Zhaozhao's side.
“Zhaozhao”.
Chen Boxu couldn't bear to see the two together and wanted his men to separate them, but his men hurriedly left and pushed the two together, which only made them stay together.
Pei Jiuyan held Yun Zhaozhao's hand and whispered, "Don't be afraid."
Yun Zhaozhao glared at him fiercely, wanting to say something, but when her gaze fell on the blood-soaked gauze, she ultimately remained silent.
She wanted to ask Pei Jiuyan if it hurt. He was still bleeding after being stabbed like that, and she also wanted to ask him why he came.
But she already knew the answers to all of these questions.
There's no reason why; he came because she was there.
Yun Zhaozhao turned her head away, and after a while said, "-Pei Jiuyan, Grandpa and Xixi are both alright."
She had called Pei Jiuyan in a moment of panic, but she didn't know if he had heard her.
"I know."
Pei Jiuyan said slowly.
“Pei Jiuyan, Xixi is your daughter.”
Yun Zhaozhao finally blurted it out. She thought she would keep it from Pei Jiuyan for the rest of her life, and even if he heard the news, she would never admit it.
However, they still don't know if they will survive, and she wants to tell Pei Jiuyan about it.
This time, Pei Jiuyan's voice rang out after a long time: "Thank you, Zhaozhao."
Thank you for giving me such a lovely child, thank you for telling me all this.
Chen Boxu couldn't bear to see the two of them so affectionate. Just as he was about to speak, Pei Jiuyan suddenly attacked, knocking down the person next to her with one hand, and then pounced on Yun Zhaozhao.
Gunshots rang out immediately.
Just now, when Yun Zhaozhao was talking to Pei Jiuyan about the child, Pei Jiuyan received a message from the police that the sniper was in position.
Everyone knows that once they leave this place, it will be difficult to save them again.
Therefore, the best time is before boarding the ship.
Yun Zhaozhao was held tightly in Pei Jiuyan's arms when several gunshots rang out.
The gunfire stopped after a long while, but Pei Jiuyan still didn't move.
“Pei Jiuyan…”
She called out softly.
Pei Jiuyan still did not move.
"Pei Jiuyan!"
Yun Zhaozhao pushed Pei Jiuyan off her with force, and suddenly felt something strange on her hand. She opened her hand and saw that it was covered in blood.
