Chapter 374 The Lady's Pistol, Prepared for You
He knew how much he loved Ning Yao and that there was no way he could fall in love with anyone else. But if he had to imagine that this happened, Wen Tingye would rather Ning Yao do the same thing as An Qiulu, or even something more ruthless.
He wanted Ning Yao to relentlessly pursue him, to be unable to live without him!
Wen Tingye stepped forward and grabbed Ning Yao's wrist, glancing displeasedly at her delicate and beautiful face.
"You must keep bothering me. If you dare to let go, see how I deal with you!"
The man's voice was incredibly deep, and every word sounded like a command, leaving no room for discussion.
"Sigh, this is just a hypothetical situation..." Ning Yao felt a little pain from Wen Tingye's pinch and let out a long sigh. She was just answering An Qiulu's hypothetical question. Why was Wen Tingye so angry?
"Remember this, no matter what happens, I will never change the fact that I am your man, Ning Yao!" Wen Tingye's voice was extremely deep, revealing a strong desire for control.
Ning Yao blushed instantly when she saw a group of mercenaries staring at her and Wen Tingye with wide eyes, plus An Qiulu and the fake Si Longshen.
She gently moved her wrist and turned to continue her conversation with An Qiulu.
But Wen Tingye grabbed her wrist from behind, and with a forceful pull, she was forced to turn around and face Wen Tingye.
Wen Tingye lowered his head and kissed Ning Yao's lips. The kiss was very forceful, and even though Ning Yao was very stable, she still staggered and took a small step back.
The mercenaries turned their heads away in perfect unison, avoiding looking at their commander and his wife's affectionate display.
Wen Tingye held Ning Yao's wrist tightly until he had kissed her enough before letting go.
"Can you two go back to being all lovey-dovey?" An Qiulu was almost driven mad by the scene before her eyes.
She's negotiating with Ning Yao here, what kind of trouble is Wen Tingye causing?
The person involved showed no remorse whatsoever, giving An Qiulu a cool glance.
His gaze was like that of someone looking at a dying person, cold and ruthless.
Others might not understand the meaning behind Wen Tingye's look, but the mercenaries who had followed him for several years knew that once Wen Tingye showed such an expression, the other party was likely to be in trouble.
“Ning Yao, I won’t beat around the bush with you anymore. What I’ve got my eye on is the White Flame Blood Jade. If you’re willing to give it to me, I might spare your father’s life.” An Qiulu stared directly at Ning Yao, her words full of provocation.
“You’re in our hands now. Do you think you have any bargaining power?” Ning Yao looked at An Qiulu with amusement.
"You really don't care about your father's life or death, do you? Si Long Shen is willing to risk his own safety for your and your mother's sake."
"If you have any conscience at all, you shouldn't have abandoned him."
Seeing that Ning Yao and Wen Tingye didn't seem nervous, An Qiulu had a bad feeling.
"You guys aren't trying to stall for time, are you?"
"On one hand, he pretended to be indifferent in front of me, while on the other hand, he was trying to find a way to get Si Longshen out of prison."
An Qiulu suddenly laughed, a cruel and sinister laugh.
"Do you think that I can't activate the cell's self-destruct mechanism just because I'm not on the other side of the base?"
Seeing Ning Yao's fingers twitch slightly, Wen Tingye realized that she was affected by An Qiulu's words, so he raised an eyebrow and gestured to the subordinate standing next to him.
“Miss Ning Yao can rest assured. I have personally searched her body, even between her teeth, and found no activation device.” After receiving a signal from Wen Tingye, the subordinate straightened his back and replied in a strong voice.
The implication was that An Qiulu's words were just a bluff, and she had no ability to activate the cell's self-destruct mechanism.
Upon hearing this, Ning Yao's tense shoulders relaxed, and her already moved eyes gradually returned to calm.
An Qiulu was right under their noses; all she had to do now was wait for Wen Tingye's men to bring Si Longshen out of the base.
An Qiulu, with her keen eye, noticed Ning Yao's subtle movements and knew she had guessed correctly.
She chuckled twice and said in an extremely sarcastic tone, "I contact a friend of mine regularly every day. If I don't show up one day, he knows something's wrong with me and will immediately activate the cell's self-destruct mechanism."
"Do you know how many members of the Simen family are imprisoned? Not only will your father die, but other relatives and friends of the Simen family who have committed crimes will also perish. You will become the enemy of the entire Simen family."
After An Qiulu finished speaking, she paused for a moment, silently calculated the time in her mind, and then the smile on her lips grew wider and wider.
"It's almost time for me to contact him, Ning Yao. You don't have much time to think about it. Whether to save him or not is a decision you make..."
"And let me give you another piece of advice: you don't need to put on an act for me anymore. I know you're a trained actor, and a very capable one..."
Ning Yao had no interest in listening to what was said next. She quickly picked up the mercenary's watch and glanced at the time.
It's less than twenty minutes away from the next exact time.
Ning Yao's face suddenly turned pale, and she lifted her leg to run towards the base.
"Ning Yao!" Wen Tingye called out to her in a deep voice, his eyes filled with a multitude of emotions.
Ning Yao stopped in her tracks, as if she had suddenly realized something. She looked at Wen Tingye, a bad feeling welling up in her heart.
"You knew all along, didn't you?" Ning Yao suddenly realized her carelessness, her voice trembling slightly.
Who is Wen Tingye? He must have already guessed that An Qiulu would have a backup plan.
Even if he couldn't guess, he would definitely be able to find out; he just didn't tell me.
He knew the chances of rescue were slim, and he didn't want to hand over the White Flame Blood Jade to An Qiulu himself.
Because once this thing is handed over, no one can guarantee what will happen to her, or even whether she will live or die.
Wen Tingye was unwilling to take risks, and even more unwilling to lose Ning Yao, so he arranged for his own people to go and rescue Si Longshen, preferring to fight An Qiulu as fast as he could.
Ning Yao hurriedly turned back. She couldn't leave now; if she did, who would negotiate with An Qiulu?
"You said you would definitely rescue him."
"Okay." Wen Tingye had made a promise, and he would do his best to fulfill it.
Ning Yao's voice began to choke up. At this moment, her mind was filled with images of a disheveled, thin, long-haired man in prison.
"Don't worry, I'll definitely find a way, but you have to promise me you won't hand over the White Flame Blood Jade to that woman." Wen Tingye placed his hand on Ning Yao's shoulder, staring intently at her, his tone authoritative and leaving no room for argument.
"Did you hear me?" Seeing that Ning Yao didn't react, Wen Tingye raised his voice.
Ning Yao pursed her lips tightly, her teeth clenched so hard that they couldn't be seen.
Wen Tingye frowned and said coldly to one of his subordinates with short, blond hair, "Give me the thing."
The golden retriever immediately pulled a small women's pistol from his pocket and respectfully handed it to Wen Tingye.
Wen Tingye took it, and the next moment he grabbed Ning Yao's wrist and placed the pistol in her slender palm.
This gun has a great feel, making it easier for women to use. It also has considerable firepower and a good range.
Wen Tingye naturally had no use for this kind of women's pistol; he had prepared it specifically for Ning Yao.
After giving her the gun, Wen Tingye took out a small black button and gently fastened it to Ning Yao's collar.
"I'm going to the base now to check on their rescue progress. I'll keep in touch with you in real time through this microphone."
“I promise you, I will bring your father-in-law to see you safely. If anything goes wrong, you can use this gun to kill this woman and avenge us.”
