Because Ran Xueyi studied the floor plan of the villa before they left, they were able to reach the greenhouse at the back of the kitchen in no time. Coincidentally, since they no longer cared about the CCTV recording due to Song Yu Han's indifference towards it, the group relaxed their tensed nerves.
Especially Adelle and Xuan Yi, who was previously so nervous and afraid their legs were turning into noodles.
Ran Xueyi looked around the greenhouse for a while and found a shovel in two sizes; long and short one leaning against one of the benches. There's also the huge gardening shears lying on top of a small table in a corner. At the sight of it, Ran Xueyi's thought was not to think of how it was used to cut the plants and branches, but to use it against anyone who comes after them.
After a short moment of rest, Xuan Yi also looked around before asking, "Are we just going to stay here and wait for them to notice that we're here? Shouldn't we try the gates and get out of this place?"
Ran Xueyi also thought of this. However, she was worried that with Adelle and Xuan Yi with them, they couldn't take all the guards that were stationed to guard the area.
Seeing her lowering her head in thought, Song Yu Han was not concerned about their current situation but could only think of how pale and smooth Ran Xueyi's neck looked right now.
Last night, his marks were sprinkled in different spots of her body. But she concealed it with a bit of liquid foundation.
Ah… I want to bite.
Ran Xueyi turned to him and asked him something while staring at him. Probably because he was too focused on her neck, Song Yu Han didn't notice that everyone was looking at him now.
"...Did you hear me?" Ran Xueyi asked him.
Song Yu Han guiltlessly shook his head and said with a grin, "No."
Ran Xueyi sighed, "... We were just thinking about how we can get out of this place fast. I know we can wait for help to come, but in our situation, we might wait for more than 9 hours before they can arrive."
"So… I'm asking you if you have any alternative plans to get out of here?" Ran Xueyi finished repeating the question and looked tired. After running for almost half an hour around this huge and wide villa, she just wanted to jump on her bed and close her eyes to sleep.
If only they had a gun with them, which their enemies possessed, and a number of people to go against their own, the chances of getting out without getting themselves in harm's way was slim.
Song Yu Han held up two fingers and said, "I have two ways."
Hearing this, Ran Xueyi and the two other girls were ecstatic.
"What is it?"
Song Yu Han gestured for Ran Xueyi to come closer. When she stepped closer, he held her neck and pulled her closer so that his lips were touching her ears, making sure that it would hit one of her erogenous zones.
Ran Xueyi twisted her body a little, feeling slightly uncomfortable by the warm breath and hot lips that touched her ears. But surprisingly, she stood on her ground and listened to him.
"One, we can storm inside the monitoring room where the organizer of this event could possibly be inside. Then, take over the entire event and system by using Mr. Qing as a hostage." Song Yu Han whispered his first plan to her.
Ran Xueyi thought about this too. However, because she doubted it would succeed: "This plan is too risky. With three girls and one man, two of us can fight, while the other two can only run. I don't think it's even possible to reach the monitoring room in the first place. Unless, you and I will go there by ourselves and leave Adelle and Miss Xuan here."
Song Yu Han beamed at her intelligence and nipped at her ears while Adelle and Xuan Yi were not looking.
Ran Xueyi glared at him. Can this guy take things seriously? Flirting with her and teasing her in her erogenous zone when their enemy could quickly find them.
Song Yu Han only smiled: "Though we can go through with this plan… I don't want you to go with me."
Ran Xueyi rolled her eyes, "Why? And don't even think of saying because it's dangerous for me, Yu Han. I know how to fight and I can take care of myself very well."
There's no doubt about that. Song Yu Han never doubted Ran Xueyi's capabilities nor underestimated her just because she's a woman. In the military, there were several women who volunteered to serve the country. He will never underestimate what women can do.
However, she was not half-wrong to think like this. He was really scared of getting her into more dangerous events and situations.
As much as he could, Song Yu Han wanted to keep her from any danger and keep her to his side.
But he also knew that Ran Xueyi will never allow him to just treat her like a fragile treasure that needs to be handled with care.
Folding one finger, Song Yu Han sighed in disappointment and said, "There goes plan number 1." He paused and after a few seconds, he continued, "My second plan is a bit… Well, it's more dangerous than the first one. I'm sure you'll reject it, but it's the fastest and most effective way to get out of here."
"Let's listen to it first before I decide whether to reject it or not."
Song Yu Han shrugged and finally said, "There's a method which I can make the whole place explode. However, I'll need ten minutes for it to be planted."
…
"They're here!"
Several guards chased after Ran Xueyi, Adelle, and Xuan Yi. With their suits and taser guns on their hands, the danger and fear of being caught was drumming into their nerves.
"Are we really going to be alright? Will that man really be able to do it? What if he used us as a scapegoat so he could escape by himself?" Xuan Yi asked while huffing and panting as she tried to keep up with the other two females.
Ran Xueyi frowned but before she could say anything, Adelle interjected: "Can you stop talking badly about Boss? He's doing something risky for us all to get out of here. And yet, you can't even feel a little bit grateful!"
Xuan Yi glared at Adelle but she turned to Ran Xueyi, "Earlier, you said he's your husband. You're lying right?" Now that they're on the verge of being captured, Xuan Yi just wanted to have her answers before anything bad could happen. "He looks handsome and has a good body figure. But I don't see any other reason why you should marry him."
Ran Xueyi this time gave her a strange gaze as if asking 'Why are your priorities so wrong? Is this even the time to be asking this?'
In truth, Xuan Yi was too curious about Ran Xueyi. She was a star that many actresses and actors are chasing after and looked up to in the past. When Ran Xueyi retired, like everyone else who adored her, Xuan Yi was devastated to see her goddess retreating to behind the scenes. She even paid a visit to Ran Xueyi's previous agency just to find her and ask her why she retired.
And so, when Ran Xueyi announced her return, Xuan Yi was one of the first people who rejoiced and spent money to celebrate it with her friends, who are all fans of Ran Xueyi too.
However, just recently, Ran Xueyi also announced that she's married, shocking everyone in the entertainment circle as well as her fans. Xuan Yi was worried that her confession would result in her being pushed aside and tried to reach Ran Xueyi and ask her to get a divorce!
But who knew that before she could send her request email to Ran Xueyi, the two met at CK show.
And most importantly, Ran Xueyi told her that the 'assistant' she brought with her turned out to be her husband!
No way! That can't be true!
How could he take their goddess away from them?
Xuan Yi cursed at Song Yu Han in her heart.
On the other hand, Ran Xueyi felt weird seeing Xuan Yi acting like this. Usually, after seeing Song Yu Han, some girls would try to seduce him and even show their interest in him. But Xuan Yi's reaction was completely opposite to what she had expected.
Instead of trying to show her admiration to her husband's extremely handsome face, why could Ran Xueyi sense Xuan Yi's dislike towards him. It was as if Xuan Yi was boiling a pot of vinegar.
"They're here!"
"Catch them!"
"Shoot your taser gun at them if you have to! Just make sure not to hurt them!"
Ran Xueyi didn't have the time to think about the reason why Xuan Yi was acting like this when the guards started screaming and they were surrounded by several guards at an intersecting hallway.
"Haha, now you have nowhere to run."
One guard mockingly said with greed filling his eyes.
Ran Xueyi ignored the man and looked down at her wristwatch…
