Seeing his father-in-law's anxious expression, Han Yixian felt that there were some things he should let his father-in-law know.
Han Yi looked around the living room and saw only his father, father-in-law, and himself. He said, "Actually, Scorpion's plan was very good. Everyone had gone up the mountain to harvest potatoes and sweet potatoes, and I was the only one at home. When that man pointed a gun at me to kill me, I didn't have a weapon at all. I thought I was going to die."
Han Xiao frowned upon hearing his son's words and said, "Didn't you happen to have a gun and kill the other person?"
Han Yixian shook his head and said, "Actually, I didn't have a gun at the time. At the critical moment, Yuhan came back and saw someone in the yard pointing a gun at my head and about to shoot me, so she shot and killed that person."
Han Xiao and He Chenglin found Han Yixian's words unbelievable. How could Yu Han possibly shoot and kill someone? Where did she get a gun in that critical moment, and how could she fire it with such accurate marksmanship?
Seeing the shocked expressions on his father and father-in-law's faces, Han Yixian said, "You should also know how extraordinary Yuhan is. She does have a gun, and her marksmanship is very accurate. She shot that man in the head with one shot."
Yuhan was terrified at the time, and I couldn't let anyone know about Yuhan's past, otherwise it would cause a lot of trouble, so I covered for her. That way, no one would investigate where Yuhan got the gun.
Han Xiao thought of what his son had said about his daughter-in-law having that incredible treasure, and then all of this made sense.
He Chenglin knew his daughter was very capable, but he never knew she also had a gun and was such a skilled marksman.
He asked, somewhat incredulously, "Yuhan has a gun, and she always carries a pistol with her? What about this time?"
Han Yixian said, "Of course I brought it this time too."
He Chenglin then asked, "Won't the enemy find out?"
Han Yi glanced at his father-in-law and said, "Dad, Yuhan has a treasure like a magic bag from mythology. She carries many things with her without anyone noticing, and she can take them out and use them whenever she wants. Even a handgun is the same."
I think you've long suspected the origins of Yuhan's things, haven't you?
He Chenglin nodded and said, "I did have my suspicions. Yuhan didn't deliberately hide it from me, but I didn't want to put her in a difficult position, so I didn't ask her directly. I didn't expect it to be the situation you described. Now, many things make sense."
So it seems you already knew, and your in-laws knew too?
Han Yixian said, "My dad just found out too. I knew about it earlier. Yuhan and I are husband and wife after all, and we have to live together. Yuhan can't hide it from me unless she does nothing and doesn't use the things in the space."
I'm telling you this to let you know that Yuhan has ways to protect herself. And Yuhan is quite skilled; she could easily handle a few men who aren't too strong. Scorpion catching Yuhan might be digging his own grave.
Scorpion's target is me. He wants to use Yuhan and the child to control me, so he probably won't do anything to them for now. However, given Scorpion's ruthlessness, we should rescue Yuhan and the child as soon as possible to avoid any unforeseen complications.
He Chenglin nodded, sighed, and said, "Hearing you say that gives me some hope. I hope Yuhan can turn bad luck into good."
There's nothing they can do right now but wait for news.
When Scorpion and his men were almost at D City in their truck, they didn't let Liu Shichun drive into the city. Instead, they had him drive directly to the dock, where a fishing boat that Scorpion had arranged was already waiting.
After the car arrived at the dock, Scorpion forced He Yuhan, holding the child, at gunpoint onto a fishing boat moored in a corner of the dock. The Liu brothers also boarded the boat.
Liu Shichun knew he had to bring his younger brother onto the boat now, or they would be caught soon. The car was too conspicuous, and their whereabouts would be exposed quickly.
Once they're on the ship and out at sea, they'll be impossible to find after dark. By the time night falls, they'll have long since escaped capture.
With a gun pointed at her, He Yuhan had no choice but to board the fishing boat. She needed to find a way to send the child into the space.
The ship soon left the dock and headed into the deep sea.
Once on the boat, Scorpion knew He Yuhan couldn't escape, and since he couldn't pull any tricks, he relaxed his watch on her a bit.
The wind at sea was quite strong. He Yuhan asked Liu Shichun for a coat and wrapped the child inside. She sat in a corner of the fishing boat and secretly fed the child milk with a bottle under the cover of the coat.
Little Xurui was very well-behaved in his mother's arms, and even when he was being fussy, he fell asleep after drinking his milk.
The scorpion had no experience in raising children and thought the child wasn't crying or fussing because it was in its mother's arms.
As darkness fell, a large ship appeared on the sea. Scorpion saw the ship from afar and quickly stood up, then stood at the bow and waved at the ship.
The large ship and the small ship gradually approached each other, and soon the small ship was close to the large ship.
Someone on the large ship lowered a rope and used it to pull Liu Shijie and Liu Shichun aboard.
Seeing this, He Yuhan knew her opportunity had arrived. She immediately put her son into her spatial storage, then wrapped a stone inside the clothes that were covering him. She planned to use a clever escape tactic to get her son out of danger first.
It's almost dark now. Stone, wrapped in clothes, fell into the sea and you can't see what it is. You'd just think it was a child who fell into the sea.
Without the child's constraints, she could act much more easily, and the child was safer.
Liu Shijie and Liu Shichun got on the big ship first, and the rope was lowered again. Scorpion, holding a gun, said to He Yuhan, "Give me the child, and you tie the rope around yourself first."
He Yuhan then moved toward the side of the boat, refusing, "I will not give you the child."
Seeing that the woman was getting aggressive, Scorpion tried to snatch the child. He Yuhan twisted her body to dodge, but because of the force, the bundle containing the child she was holding suddenly flew out of her hands and fell into the sea with a splash.
Upon seeing this, He Yuhan cried out in anguish, "My child, my child has fallen into the sea! Please save my child!"
It was pitch black everywhere, and the package that fell into the sea quickly sank and disappeared without a trace.
He Yuhan screamed and was about to jump into the sea to save the child.
Scorpion, quick as a flash, grabbed He Yuhan's arm and scolded, "Stupid woman, you didn't hold the child properly and let him fall into the sea, so you deserve it. Now it's pitch black in the ocean, where are we going to save the child? The child has already sunk and drowned, it's pointless to save him, he might even be eaten by fish."
He Yuhan struggled to jump into the sea, crying her heart out. Scorpion didn't suspect anything was amiss. After all, the child had been held in He Yuhan's arms the whole time; who would have thought that the child in the package had been replaced with a stone?
Scorpion pointed the gun at He Yuhan's head and cursed, "The child is dead, so be it. If you don't behave, I'll just kill you and send you to the Western Paradise so you can keep your child company."
