Rebirth: Splendid Marriage in the 80s Chapter 2641 - 2577: Hating Her Face

At that moment, the Jiang family's Sixth Young Master was indeed quite vulnerable. Left utterly alone, he appeared frail, and to make matters worse, he had inhaled a significant amount of a sleep-inducing agent. Faced with numerous adversaries armed with guns, the sea behind him, and pursuers ahead, his escape seemed impossible.

Consequently, when the individuals in pursuit spotted Sixth Young Master Jiang being intercepted by one of their own group holding a firearm, they breathed a collective sigh of relief. They halted their advance, preparing to leisurely approach the scene.

Unexpectedly, Sun Han intervened with astonishing speed, and Sixth Young Master Jiang's own movements were also remarkably swift. Subsequently, attempting to catch up proved to be an exceedingly difficult task.

Sun Han's marksmanship was equally impressive, effectively holding them at bay for a period and causing them to hesitate in their pursuit.

Such developments were entirely beyond their projections.

Thus, if any aspect of their plan had faltered, they concluded the primary reason was that Miss Lu's sleep-inducing drug had simply failed to take effect.

Lu Shuangshuang clenched her teeth in frustration.

She, too, found the situation perplexing.

Regarding Sun Han specifically, if Sixth Young Master Jiang's resistance to the drug could be attributed to inhaling it, then what accounted for Sun Han's immunity?

After all, it was she who had personally administered the injection to Sun Han.

Could his physical constitution and immune system be so robust that half a syringe of the potion had absolutely no impact on him?

"Regarding that Sun Han," Fei Cui remarked, "wasn't it previously discovered that he's a retired soldier? I suspect he might have come from a special forces background. Certain special forces units periodically administer substances to build resistance against various drugs, ensuring they aren't incapacitated by narcotics in critical situations."

This explanation effectively alleviated Lu Shuangshuang's doubts.

Indeed, it seemed entirely plausible.

Sun Han must have originated from a special forces unit; otherwise, there would be no reason to pay him such particular attention. For someone of his caliber, receiving only half the dosage might indeed render the drug ineffective, wouldn't it?

"However, regardless of the circumstances, they won't escape," Fei Cui stated confidently. "That vessel cannot travel far, and no matter how skilled they are in the water, their stamina will soon wane. If we pursue them by boat, we are certain to catch up."

Lu Shuangshuang declared with a resolute expression, "This time, we absolutely must capture Sixth Young Master. If he eludes us, you are aware of the ramifications."

As she spoke, her intense gaze swept over their faces.

Subsequently, her attention settled on Fei Cui.

After a brief pause, she and Fei Cui moved to the stern of the boat, positioned one behind the other.

Lu Shuangshuang's eyes fixated on Fei Cui's face, and a surge of animosity welled within her.

"Tell me, did Sixth Young Master exhibit any peculiar reactions upon seeing you?"

Fei Cui possessed a delicate facial structure, with almond-shaped eyes, rosy lips, a finely sculpted chin, and a slender, elegant figure, presenting the appearance of an exceptionally captivating beauty.

Furthermore, she didn't appear particularly young anymore, likely around thirty years of age, lacking the youthful vibrancy and spirited aura of a young woman.

Such a figure and face were precisely what Lu Shuangshuang found most detestable, leading her to harbor persistently complex emotions towards Fei Cui.

She disdained such external appearances yet constantly observed Fei Cui, hoping she wouldn't age poorly and could somehow maintain her current look.

"I distinctly heard his footsteps approaching, and the fact that he could be drawn by my flute indicates he still retained some recollection of the melody. Had he not had a bodyguard accompanying him at that precise moment, he would undoubtedly have come closer."

Fei Cui also expressed a considerable degree of regret.

From where had Sixth Young Master procured such capable bodyguards? Initially, she had no intention of eliminating that bodyguard, but he had discerned the calluses on her fingers.

Those were the telltale signs of calluses formed from prolonged handling of a firearm.
