"You’re absolutely insane to have such thoughts." Zhao Yanran burst out yelling, feeling both infuriated and helpless. She couldn’t believe Tang Yun was thinking like this.

"Chen Yuxin has done so many bad things, Boss Xing and the Mothman almost killed him, and the ’Shadow’ organization is hunting us down everywhere. Yet you still want to keep it a secret?" Zhao Yanran shouted loudly, unable to understand. Indeed, Tang Yun was in love with Ye Shikai, so they thought differently from each other.

"No matter how many bad things Chen Yuxin has done, she’s still Ye Shikai’s wife. The child she’s carrying is also Ye Shikai’s. Isn’t that right?" As soon as Tang Yun spoke, Zhao Yanran was rendered speechless. Yes, what she said was true. Su Qingyu didn’t want a divorce back then, but why did she still part with him despite the pain? It was all because of that child. After all, Su Qingyu still deeply loved Ye Shikai and sacrificed her marriage for his ’family of three’.

"I can’t convince you. Do as you wish." Zhao Yanran waved her sleeve and said coldly. Yes, in the end, this was Tang Yun’s secret. Whether or not to tell Ye Shikai was her decision. Actually, Zhao Yanran could understand Tang Yun’s actions, but this kind of willing self-sacrificial ’love’ was indeed rare.

"I need you to keep this secret." Tang Yun said firmly. Zhao Yanran understood she had made up her mind. She’d always heard Ye Shikai was a playboy, charming ’all kinds of beauties’ to flock to him. It turned out to be true, another ’tragic woman’ obsessed with love.

"You... fine, I promise to keep your secret. Are you satisfied now?" Zhao Yanran nodded. After all, Chen Yuxin was carrying his child, but Ye Shikai didn’t know how many people were heartbroken for him behind his back.

Bam.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang on the hood of the car, breaking the women’s train of thought. Before they could react, a spear pierced through the windshield. Tang Yun, caught off guard, was impaled through the abdomen, penetrating even the seat behind her.

Zhao Yanran was stunned by the scene before her. Everything happened too suddenly. Out of the assassin’s instinct, she immediately pulled out the handgun beside her seat and shot at the figure on the hood.

Bam, bam, bam, bam.

The figure moved quickly, dodging the bullets. Zhao Yanran hurriedly pulled out a dagger and cut off part of the spear. Blood poured from Tang Yun’s wound. Her face turned pale instantly, her body trembling. Such a severe penetration wound could likely lead to stomach bleeding. Zhao Yanran infused her Inner Strength into her, protecting her heart vessels. However, the blood kept flowing, and she couldn’t last long.

"Go... go quickly." Tang Yun’s face was ashen, her voice extremely weak, "Their... target is you too."

"What nonsense, I’ll get you out of here." Zhao Yanran shouted loudly. The two had become close friends over these days. It wasn’t hard to guess that these were assassins sent by Boss Xing or Chen Ruoya. It was just unexpected they arrived so soon.

"There’s poison on top, it’s the ’Shadow’ organization, you... go quickly. At least someone needs to keep this secret." Tang Yun spoke with all her remaining strength. Zhao Yanran froze. The ’Shadow’ organization was cleaning up, killing them to keep the secret. If Zhao Yanran died too, then...

"As long as... I can love him silently, it’s enough..." Tang Yun murmured softly, turning her head to look out the window, a faint smile appearing on her lips one last time.

She was a small figure, perhaps just a ’familiar passerby’ in Ye Shikai’s eyes, but she willingly died for him. Her love for Ye Shikai was like a thief with stolen goods, not daring to expose herself in the sunlight.

Bam, the car door was suddenly flung open.

"Zhao Yanran, Tang Yun, come with me quickly." Luo Shiqi appeared with several suited bodyguards, surrounded by gunfire and chaos.

"Tang Yun, she... is already gone..." Zhao Yanran sighed deeply. Luo Shiqi glanced at Tang Yun, who had already ceased breathing, her heart trembling, but she quickly regained her composure.

"If you’re able, take her body with you." Luo Shiqi said coldly, leading the bodyguards and Zi Yun’s Worm into the gas station.

"Boss, these people are professional gunmen. They’re targeting us." One of the bodyguards said loudly as they entered the gas station convenience store to find cover. If an explosion occurred here, the consequences would be severe. It was too dangerous outside.

"Don’t worry, causing such a big scene will soon attract someone to handle it. We just need to hold on for fifteen minutes." Luo Shiqi picked up a handgun and shot at the gunmen outside, instantly taking down two or three of them.

"Everyone hold your breath, withdraw from the back." Zi Yun took a grenade-like canister from his pocket and threw it into the crowd outside.

Hiss, hiss, hiss.

A white smoke burst from the canister. As soon as the gunmen inhaled the white gas, they collapsed and fell to the ground, unmoving as if dead. Taking advantage of this gap, the remaining people quickly retreated from the back.

Yanjing, Hotel.

"Mr. Ye, congratulations."

"Miss Wang, I didn’t expect you to attend my wedding." Ye Shikai’s mood soured as he saw the visitor. Although Wang Qian was beautiful, describing her as having a heart of a snake and scorpion wasn’t too far off.

Ring, ring.

"Haha, Miss Wang, your phone is ringing." Ye Shikai pointed to Wang Qian’s pocket. Sure enough, the ringtone was soft, but just enough for the two of them to hear.

"Excuse me for a moment." Wang Qian’s expression turned slightly displeased; she nodded and signaled her departure.

"Jeddon." Ye Shikai waved his hand. Jeddon stepped forward in two steps.

"Sir, any orders?"

"Keep an eye on the Wang Family, especially this Wang Qian. She might have other plans."

"Yes, sir, I’ll take care of it right away." Jeddon nodded, leading several Hidden Guards to closely follow the Wang Family’s guests.

"How is the plan progressing?" Wang Qian found a secluded corner, answering the phone, her expression gloomy.

"Miss, the plan... failed. They got away, and we lost over a dozen men." A male voice came through the phone.

"Humph, useless. How could you let so few people escape with so many of you?"

"Miss, please be assured. I’ll send people to chase them immediately."

"No need, the commotion has already grown too large. Withdraw everyone and leave no traces behind."
