Chapter 18: Is My Wife Yixue Being Hunted?
“Hm?”
The moment Ye Fan heard Li Hu's words, his eyes turned razor-sharp!
A powerful aura surged out, making the temperature in the entire room seem to drop several degrees. “Save my wife! Save my wife...”
With so many people present, Ye Fan couldn't reveal too much. He could only stand up and rush anxiously out of the private room.
Su Yixue had only become his woman last night, and today she was already being hunted?
Once I find out who they are, I'll grind their bones to dust.
Xia Hao immediately barked, “Don't just stand there! Mobilize everyone at once! No matter the cost, protect Miss Su!”
From Ye Fan's reaction, Xia Hao could tell that Su Yixue held an extremely important place in his heart.
This was the first task he'd handled since pledging allegiance to Ye Fan. He absolutely couldn't afford to make any mistakes.
“Yes!”
After replying, Li Hu immediately began issuing orders frantically. “Pass on my command! Everyone, move out immediately! At all costs, strike against Wu Laolang. We're going all out!”
As an official, Sun Qian couldn't intervene directly, but he quickly made several phone calls, using every resource available to him to help as much as possible.
In an instant, the entire city of Yun erupted into action!
Throughout the streets and alleys, countless men under Li Hu's command grabbed their weapons and moved out.
Every informant was activated, and before long they had locked onto Wu Laolang's route.
“Master Hu, Wu Laolang is currently leading his men toward Liang Family Alley in the western suburbs of Yun City. According to the latest reports, they haven't succeeded yet. Miss Su is retreating under the protection of her bodyguards.”
As Ye Fan and Li Hu rode toward the western suburbs, hearing the report over the phone finally eased Ye Fan's heart a little.
Fortunately, Su Yixue was still unharmed.
“Faster! Save my wife! Save my wife!”
The fury in Ye Fan's heart was almost impossible to suppress.
Now that the Ye family had suffered such a catastrophe, did those people really think there was no one left in the Ye family?
Did they think anyone could just step on them?
It was time to teach them a lesson!
If wiping out the Zhao family yesterday could be considered an accident, then today, once he found out who was behind this, Ye Fan would be even more ruthless!
This would serve as a warning to anyone who wanted to make a move against the Su family or the Ye family.
They would learn the consequences of provoking the Ye family.
...
Western suburbs of Yun City!
Su Yixue sat inside a sedan that had already been smashed beyond recognition. The front end was caved in, and a large chunk of the rear had been torn away.
Besides the driver, there were two bodyguards inside, both covered in blood.
Today, Su Yixue had originally gone to negotiate continued cooperation with Zheng Biao, the Su family's biggest supplier. But she never expected Zheng Biao to have secretly arranged an ambush, hiring a gang of thugs to abduct her to a hotel and violate her.
Fortunately, her bodyguards discovered the trap in time. At the critical moment, they fought their way out and escaped with Su Yixue.
However, the gang clung to them like a persistent disease, chasing them relentlessly from downtown all the way to the western suburbs.
Bang!
Vans on both sides rammed Su Yixue's car at high speed, forcing it into a narrow alley until there was no road ahead. The captain of the bodyguards, Zhao Datou, spoke up.
“Miss Su, go on alone! Back then, you kindly took us in. Now it's time for us to repay you. Run as far as you can. We'll hold them off!”
Years ago, Zhao Datou had been gravely ill beneath a bridge, simply waiting to die.
It was Su Yixue who took him in, paid for his treatment, arranged for him to work as a security guard in the Su Group, trained him in martial arts, and later promoted him to bodyguard. He had remained absolutely loyal to her ever since.
“Be careful!”
Knowing this wasn't the time for hesitation, Su Yixue gave them one last reminder before quickly running deeper into the alley.
Determination filled her eyes.
From the moment she announced she would marry Ye Fan, she had known countless hardships awaited her.
She just hadn't expected trouble to come so quickly.
Still, she had prepared herself.
She was already Ye Fan's woman. Even if she died, she would never let anyone lay a finger on her, nor allow herself to be captured and used as leverage against Ye Fan.
Behind her, Zhao Datou and his two men endured their wounds. The blades of their three machetes were already chipped and curled, yet their imposing presence remained undiminished as they formed a defensive line before dozens of pursuing thugs.
“Stop struggling! Do you really think the three of you can stop over a hundred of us?”
The gang leader at the front had apparently suffered at Zhao Datou's hands before. Seeing their formation, he didn't dare rush in recklessly.
“Hmph! If you want to touch Miss Su, then come and try! Killing one is enough to break even! Killing two means I profit! If you're not afraid of dying, then come! Come on!”
A fierce light flashed in Zhao Datou's eyes as he roared at the pursuing thugs.
His unwavering resolve intimidated everyone present.
The thugs actually took two steps back under the pressure of his presence.
Using the corner of his eye, Zhao Datou glanced behind him. Su Yixue was already nowhere to be seen.
His only goal now was to delay them for even one more second, buying her more time.
As long as she could escape this place, she still had a chance.
If Su Yixue got away safely, then even dying here today would leave him with no regrets.
Just as both sides remained locked in a standoff, Zhao Datou suddenly heard familiar footsteps behind him.
He turned around sharply.
It was Su Yixue!
“Miss Su, why did you come back?” Zhao Datou exclaimed in shock.
Despair appeared in Su Yixue's eyes.
“It's a dead end. There's no way out.”
Hiss!
In an instant, Zhao Datou and his two companions felt as though their hearts had fallen into an icy abyss.
Behind them was a dead end.
Ahead stood over a hundred thugs blocking the exit, and judging by the sounds, even more were gathering.
No matter how they looked at it, today was certain death.
“Forget about me. They're after me. You should leave. They probably won't make things difficult for you.”
Having realized there was no escape, Su Yixue instead became calm.
Although she had only spent one night as Ye Fan's wife, she was already content.
At least she hadn't let the Ye family down.
Her only regret was that she hadn't been able to bear children for the Ye family.
That would have to wait until the next life.
She had already decided that once Zhao Datou and the others left, she would take her own life on the spot.
But after only a brief moment of distraction, Zhao Datou and the others made their decision.
“Old Mo, Xiao Tao, protect Miss Su in the middle! We'll carve another bloody path out! Even if we can't, at least we'll have company on the road to the underworld. We won't be alone!”
In that instant, Zhao Datou's heroic spirit filled the narrow alley.
Three blood-soaked warriors shielding a peerless beauty.
Knowing full well that death lay ahead, they still marched forward without fear.
For a moment, the scene was profoundly tragic...
