The Bodyguard King’s CEO Wife Chapter 1109: Intimidating

The attack happened suddenly, and Ghost didn’t even restrain his strength, kicking the assailant three or four meters away.

"Ah ah." Gu Xin reacted half a beat slower. When she came to her senses, the assailant had already been kicked away by Ghost, but still shocked, she tightly clung to Ghost, unable to help but scream.

"Watch out." Ghost immediately sensed the anomaly and, almost instinctively, protected Gu Xin while retreating. From the nearby bushes, several people suddenly appeared, holding curved knives and daggers, rushing toward the two. Ghost sidestepped, narrowly avoiding a curved knife and dagger aiming for his abdomen. Before he could counterattack, the assailant swung his hand, and the dagger displayed a curved blade, slashing across Ghost’s chest.

Ghost endured the pain, channeling his Inner Strength, and slapped the assailant, knocking him away. Now surrounded by several attackers, and unarmed, the best course of action would be to immediately flee, create distance, and head for a crowded area. But there was still Gu Xin behind him, and when the first assailant appeared, it seemed like he was directly targeting her.

Could it be... Black Sand Gang members? It shouldn’t be, Lang wouldn’t do such a thing, but judging by these people’s skills, they’re clearly professional Assassins, and they can even withstand Inner Strength techniques, seemingly cultivators as well.

"Li, are you okay?" Gu Xin panicked, seeing the bloody wound on Ghost’s chest, and quickly spoke.

"Run fast." Ghost wrapped her waist and ran towards the hospital.

"Chase them, catch both of them." An assailant coldly ordered, and everyone immediately gave chase. Leading Gu Xin, Ghost couldn’t outrun them. In desperation, Ghost suddenly stopped and forcefully pushed Gu Xin away.

"Go now." Ghost shouted loudly, grabbed a long wooden stick from the nearby bushes, swung it backward, directly striking the face of the assailant.

Ghost used all his strength, hearing the sound of breaking bones as the stick hit the face.

"Come on." Ghost shouted loudly. It’s said that no matter how high one’s martial arts skills, they’re afraid of a kitchen knife. Ghost didn’t have a kitchen knife, but the long stick looked intimidating compared to the assailants’ curved knives and daggers, more like a long wooden club, similar to a spiked bat. Ghost shouted aggressively, as if preparing for a desperate battle, feeling a surge of "courage to fight against odds," swinging the stick directly at the assailant’s head. There were few passersby, scattered, but the scene was so startling that no one dared approach.

Ghost was surrounded by several people, even professional Assassins were shocked by this "madman" look, especially here in Huaxia’s East Sea, a public place. If they really did something outrageous, perhaps they wouldn’t even be able to leave East Sea. Such psychological pressure made these Assassins fearful.

"We can’t take him down immediately, everyone, retreat." The lead Assassin commanded.

"Got it." The Assassins quickly darted into the nearby bushes, disappearing from view. Huaxia had excellent security, coupled with the National Security Bureau, foreign underground forces didn’t dare to rampage here, even local forces had to be wary.

"Tsk, I thought they were more formidable." Ghost tossed the stick aside, saying disdainfully, surprised that this intimidating maneuver proved quite effective.

"Li, you... are you okay?" At this moment, a silhouette dashed from the side, directly hugging Ghost.

"Ouch ouch ouch, it hurts, woman, you’re pressing on my wound..." Ghost shouted, and who else could it be but Gu Xin, her slim hand pressing directly on his chest wound, squeezing blood out.

"Sorry, sorry." Gu Xin quickly released her grip, looking down at her hand covered in blood. Ghost, despite looking "alright," had a very real wound on his chest, one centimeter deep, bleeding profusely. If Ghost hadn’t reacted quickly, the wound would have been deeper and longer.

"Let’s hurry back to the hospital." Tears streamed from Gu Xin’s eyes, partly out of concern for him, partly because she was frightened.

"Alright, ouch, the wound does hurt." Ghost’s face showed pain as he looked at Gu Xin’s distressed face, suddenly feeling that getting injured for her wasn’t so painful after all.

"Didn’t I tell you to go first? Why did you come back?"

"I... If I left and you died, what would happen?"

"Can’t you wish me well for once?" Ghost teased, "Alright, take me to the hospital quickly."

"Okay, let’s go quickly."

"Suture the wound, inject tetanus shot, and just take care of it for a while, it will be fine." In East Sea hospital, a doctor examined Ghost’s injury, showing a curious expression. As a surgeon, he had seen various wounds, and this one was clearly a knife wound to the chest, not accidental but... intentionally inflicted, which is a crime.

"Thank you, Dr. Chen." Gu Xin nodded gratefully, helping Ghost move to get anesthesia and suture the wound.

Resting room.

"Gu Li, I heard you were injured, is it serious?" Gu Jian walked in quickly, with the director following behind. Upon learning of the incident, Gu Xin immediately called the police, and soon, Gu Jian and the director were informed too.

"I’m alright, I drove them away." Ghost shook his head while speaking.

"Officer, you must catch the culprits." Gu Jian urged the investigating police officer nearby.

"Of course, daring to commit violent assault in broad daylight, catching the culprits is our responsibility." The leading officer approached Ghost, "Did those assailants have any distinguishing features?"

"They were all masked, I couldn’t see their faces clearly. But their accents were weird, definitely not locals from East Sea." Ghost recalled carefully, finding nothing particularly notable.

"Have you wronged any enemies before, or perhaps... some potential rivals?" The police asked in a very tactful manner, sending so many people specifically to kill someone wasn’t something anyone would believe to be random—it’s premeditated murder. Those facing such circumstances must have an unusual background, but since Gu Li was a security guard, it naturally piqued police curiosity.

"No, he’s always been straightforward." Gu Xin promptly responded.

"From my investigation, you have lost your memory before, correct?" The officer inquired.

"Indeed."

"Do you remember your past identity, or experiences?"

"Officer, he’s my patient." Suddenly, Gu Jian interjected, "It’s not easy for amnesia patients to recall memories."
