Chapter 520 - He Suddenly Came Close to Her (1/2)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Queen had three sons and one daughter. After her eldest son died young, the remaining of her children had been fighting for power on the sly.

Ye Fengjun was anxious to let Mu Sihan return to the Ye family and have the marriage with the Shangguan family because he wanted to stabilize his power and make the Queen crown him as the Crown Prince.

Bo Yan looked at Mu Sihan, whose dark eyes were full of murderous intent, and said, “After your father became the Crown Prince, there were several shooting incidents in the capital. I heard that the Queen had been very unhappy with your father recently?”

Mu Sihan held the gun with one hand, shooting another shot at the target, a faint smile on his thin lips. “My Uncle and Auntie are not people to be taken lightly. Everyone wants to be the last one standing.”

“Then that’s good, you will be able to benefit from it. They are all brutal, cold-blooded and unscrupulous in their methods. The people of the country will be the ones who suffer when they become the monarch.”

Mu Sihan handed Bo Yan the still smoking gun. “I’m brutal too.”

“But your heart is warm.”

Mu Sihan looked up at the sky above his head and saw one of the stars that was the brightest, his dark eyes narrowed slightly. “I’m not that great. I just want to have enough power to protect my child and woman.”

If he could not be king, he would always be Ye Fengjun’s puppet.

Bo Yan wanted to say something but Mu Sihan’s phone rang. After ending the call, his expression changed. “There’s a shooting at the fresh fruit supermarket on the west lane of the city. Bring people over to a.s.sist quickly.”

…

In the fresh fruit supermarket.

Yan Hua heard that the fruits here were fresh and walked the few hundred meters especially to pick fresh fruits.

Suddenly, she heard a scream outside.

Yan Hua looked towards the entrance and saw two masked men holding guns rus.h.i.+ng in.

The sounds of guns being fired sounded.

Yan Hua quickly hid in the corner, her hands holding her head and stiffening her body, not daring to move.

The sounds of the guns being fired almost deafened her ears.

After some time, police cars arriving outside could be heard.

The two masked men walked towards the corner, pointing their guns at several people huddled on the ground.

Yan Hua saw the muzzle of the gun landed on a pregnant woman with a big belly.

“You, come here!”

The robber pointed his gun at the pregnant lady. The pregnant woman’s face paled with fright and her legs trembled when she was singled out.

There were two other men squatting on the ground, burying their heads in their arms as if they had not seen anything.

The pregnant woman stood up shakily and with both hands on her stomach, she begged fearfully, “I beg you, I’m almost due. I’ve gone through many hards.h.i.+ps to conceive, and he’s about to be born. Please, please…”

It was obvious that the robbers had no sympathy. The muzzle of the gun jabbed at the woman’s stomach. “If you talk nonsense again, I’ll kill you now.”

Yan Hua’s pupils constricted and she saw that the pregnant lady’s skirt was gradually turning red.

She stood up from the ground and looked steadfastly at the robbers. “I’ll be your hostage!”

…

In a building opposite the supermarket, Bo Yan and a subordinate called Stone, were lying in ambush with snipers.

Seeing the robbers coming out with the hostage, Stone whispered, “Boss, look.”

Bo Yan had seen plenty of such scenes, plus his calm and indifferent nature, made him able to stay calm and grounded no matter how big the situation was.

But when he saw clearly the woman the robbers were pointing their guns at was Yan Hua, who he had not seen for some time, he almost knocked down the sniper that was mounted.

“Boss, what’s wrong?”

Stone had never seen Bo Yan with such a panicked expression. It was like he had seen a ghost.

It was a few seconds before Bo Yan regained his usual expression. But the outlines of his handsome side profile became more indifferent and cold, and Stone even felt a faint trace of murderous intent from him.

“Boss, are you okay!”
