Chapter 861: A Direct Confrontation (4)

Seeing the red mark on Ling Tianya’s forehead, Ruan Zeyan’s eyes turned murderous. His thin lips pursed tightly and his eyes threw daggers at Mark. Yet his arms slowly raised to point the gun in his hands at his own temple.

“If you let my wife go, I’ll die immediately.” The man’s voice was low and unwavering.

“Do you think I’m an idiot? Your wife is my hostage, how can I let her go now?” Mark’s arm was tight around Ling Tianya’s neck. “You’re the one who doesn’t have a choice!”

A tenseness hung in the air. Du Gang, Big One and Small One clenched their fists, and their eyes were glaring red. They wanted to do something to break this stalemate, but they were helpless, too.

This might be their most helpless moment since they started following Ruan Zeyan.

Behind Mark was a lake, so Du Gang and company couldn’t even go around to sneak attack from behind.

“Alright.” Ruan Zeyan’s voice rang out suddenly and his fingers inched towards the trigger.

“Wait!” Ling Tianya shouted.

Everyone’s attention was focused on her. Ruan Zeyan’s gaze paused as his eyes met hers. He had a bad feeling in his heart.

“What else do you want to say!” Mark smiled evilly, “A farewell to your husband?”

“No.” Ling Tianya’s expression was calm as she looked towards Ruan Zeyan. Those beautiful eyes seemed to convey words that only Ruan Zeyan could understand.

“Ling Tianya, I forbid you from doing anything rash!” Ruan Zeyan’s eyes almost popped out as he glared angrily, his cold voice held a hint of a tremble.

Ling Tianya looked up at Mark. “My husband doesn’t have a choice, but I do.”

“What do you mean?”

Before Mark could process Ling Tianya’s words, she raised both her arms to hold Mark’s gun firmly in her hands. Her fingers moved to the trigger.

“I won’t give you the chance to threaten my man!” Ling Tianya’s voice was resolute. In this moment, she was resolved to die. If, between Ruan Zeyan and herself, someone had to die today, then she was willing for it to be her.

Ling Tianya’s action shocked Mark. Although he was threatening Ruan Zeyan with Ling Tianya’s death, he didn’t really intend to take her life.

If he could, he wanted to give bringing Ling Tianya back to the leader, to make up for failing his mission.

“You’re crazy, let go!” Mark instinctively pulled his hands away.

During the scuffle between Mark and Ling Tianya, Du Gang found an opening to shoot Mark’s arm. The bullet pierced Mark’s shoulder blade.

Shot on the shoulder of the arm that was holding the gun, Mark recoiled from the pain and his fingers reflexively pulled the trigger.

When the gun sounded, everyone tensed up.

The bullet grazed Ling Tianya’s ear.

Ling Tianya’s ears buzzed from the gunshot.

With Mark injured, Ling Tianya took the opportunity to snatch his gun away. But at that moment, she was pulled into a familiar embrace.

Just a moment ago, Ruan Zeyan was still at a distance, but, almost in a blink of an eye, he had reached Ling Tianya and embraced her tightly while he kicked Mark on the chest.

Mark used the arm that wasn’t shot to block Ruan Zeyan’s kick, but he still staggered backward a few steps,

After seeing that Ruan Zeyan had managed to save Ling Tianya, Du Gang and company rushed forward.

Ruan Zeyan hugged Ling Tianya tightly. In his embrace, she finally broke into tears, letting out all the longing, worry and stress from the past few days…
