Following that, President Wang’s voice ca through, grim and ominous
"Quan Ci, this day next year will be your death anniversary."
As his voice faded, the Black-clothed Man raised his handgun.
The next second brought not the sound of gunfire.
But suddenly... from who-knows-where, a python patterned with a black and red flower burst out.
With a crunch, it swallowed the Black-clothed Man’s entire arm, handgun and all.
This sudden turn of events sent everyone running in panic, screaming.
Su Yan hurried to Quan Ci’s side, whispering
"Quan Ci, are you alright?"
The man on the cross twitched his eyelids,
Having not expected that this ’portable throw pillow’ would still think of him at a ti like this.
It was sowhat surprising.
But in the blink of an eye, his peach blossom eyes swept over the many snakes that had slithered past him, pensive.
Clearly, the snake seed to deliberately avoid their vicinity.
As if soone was controlling it, as if it had a consciousness.
While he was reflecting on this, he saw Su Yan’s hand on the front of his shirt, as she once again turned to command the unexpectedly appeared python
"Little Red, that person, the fat one being protected in the middle."
Su Yan was paying close attention to the skirmish.
As she watched the chaos on the other side, she turned back to inspect the chains binding Quan Ci.
The chains were heavy and tightly bound, as if intending to dig into the flesh of his arms.
There was no quick fix.
While she was thinking, a voice ca from sowhere
"Hurry! Go kill Quan Ci! Quick!!"
"Where’s the gun?! Kill him!!"
Who the hell could have imagined?!
In such a venue, a python this large could rampage in.
Quan Ci watched the woman caressing him up and down.
A smile played on his lips, his head hung low, seemingly indifferent, his throat moving, his voice a bit hoarse
"They want to kill , you should leave."
Su Yan shook her head, still fiddling around,
"I won’t go."
Her words rang as though she was stating the obvious.
Quan Ci’s eyelids twitched, and he murmured softly, revealing faintly,
"If that’s the case, they won’t let you off either."
Su Yan stayed silent; she just looked at the chains, troubled.
How is she supposed to break them?
Maybe ask Little Red to bite through them?
Seeing her still standing there, not leaving.
Quan Ci laughed
"You’re going to die here too."
And in his mind, Xiao Hua’s voice also rang out
"System warning--danger approaching."
The sound of pounding ca from the tightly shut door.
It seed that the bodyguards outside wanted to break in, but soone had jamd the door.
Su Yan let out a breath.
Her physical strength wasn’t great to begin with.
Trying to break the chains had already drained much of her energy.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead.
Looking up at Quan Ci, her tone was earnest
"I can’t save you."
These chains, she couldn’t break them open.
Quan Ci’s throat moved, and he smiled lazily with the corner of his lips
"Mhm"
He responded leisurely and without rush.
He had thought she would just leave after saying her piece.
But then he heard her continue
"But if I am alive, I won’t let you die."
The mont her forceful words fell, the bodyguards outside the hotel, whom President Wang and Brother Long had stationed, ard with guns, stord in.
Xiao Hua’s warnings of danger grew even louder.
The next second, Su Yan deflated,
"If I can’t protect you, then we’ll just have to die together."
If it ca to fleeing, with Little Red’s protection, Su Yan could surely make an escape.
But Quan Ci, tied to the cross, would certainly be dood.
