Chapter 228 You're asking for death if you touch my man!
Ning Yao sized up the woman in front of her. Judging from her appearance, she seemed to be a few years older than herself.
"You're Luo Xiyao?" Huo Muxi made no attempt to hide the hostility in his tone as he looked Ning Yao up and down, as if she were a product.
Sure enough, she spoke to Ning Yao the next second.
"Name your price. How much would it take for you to leave Ning Chen?"
Upon hearing this, Ning Yao glanced at Ning Chen and found that Ning Chen's face showed no other emotion besides disgust.
Ning Chen disliked Huo Muxi; it was obvious to the naked eye that he disliked her. He couldn't understand why this young lady of the Huo family was so persistent.
Since Ning Chen was her son's friend, Ning Yao decided to help him out and resolve the big problem of the Huo family's daughter.
“Miss Huo, forced love is never sweet. If you two truly love each other, no one can separate you. If not, what’s the point of you staying with someone whose heart isn’t with you?” Ning Yao advised kindly, hoping Huo Muxi could figure it out herself.
"Whether we're truly in love or not is none of your business! Name your price, or don't blame me for being ruthless!" Huo Muxi's threatening words were quite elaborate.
Even those who don't know Huo Muxi's background know that she must have a very complicated background.
It's quite something that someone could brazenly barge into the cabin with so many bodyguards, and the Costa Cruises staff didn't stop them.
Upon hearing Huo Muxi's words, Ning Chen applied slight pressure with his fingers and forcefully bent a corner out of the cigarette box.
Just as everyone's eyes were focused on Huo Muxi, Ning Chen suddenly stood up, grabbed Huo Muxi's collar, and slammed her hard against the edge of the table, making her unable to move.
"I don't care how domineering you are to others, but Luo Xiyao is the only one. If you dare to be rude to her, don't blame me for taking your life!" Ning Chen's voice wasn't loud, and only Huo Muxi, who was closest to him, could hear what he said. The others only saw his lips move.
Huo Muxi's bodyguards reacted instantly, drawing their guns and aiming them at Ning Chen's head.
"Don't touch him, all of you get out of the way!" Huo Muxi shouted sternly.
"Yes, Miss!" The bodyguards responded and withdrew, but they did not dare to relax. They remained close by, still holding their guns firmly.
"Ning Chen, I will never give up on you, not even if it means my death." Huo Muxi's eyes reddened with anger, and her voice sounded somewhat aggrieved.
She poured her heart out to Ning Chen, but Ning Chen treated her like this for another woman. How could she not be heartbroken?
"Then you'd better remember this: Luo Xiyao is someone you can't touch," Ning Chen said in a low voice, then released Huo Muxi's collar and retreated to his original position with a cold face.
The moment Ning Chen loosened his grip, a sinister glint flashed in Huo Muxi's eyes.
She pulled a women's pistol from her pocket and fired a bullet hard into Ning Yao's head.
So you like protecting Luo Xiyao so much? Then she'll make sure Ning Chen watches Luo Xiyao die!
The gunshots startled the people in the cabin, who scattered and fled, creating a chaotic scene.
Ning Yao was surrounded by a noisy, chaotic scene.
She didn't expect Huo Muxi to draw his gun when everyone thought she was done.
No one can outrun a gun; by the time they react, it's too late.
At this critical moment, Ning Yao felt a pair of strong arms pull her into an embrace, and Wen Tingye's unique scent filled her nostrils.
After the gunshots ended, Ning Yao felt no pain, but she smelled a strong stench of blood.
Wen Tingye shielded Ning Yao with his own body, ensuring her safety.
"Wen Tingye!" Ning Yao's eyes reddened with anxiety. She reached out and grabbed Wen Tingye's sleeve, trying to check which part of his body had been shot.
Wen Tingye's lips were pale, but he was still conscious. He felt weak and unsteady on his feet, and slowly walked to the sofa to sit down.
The private doctors that Wen Tingye brought quickly stepped forward to examine his wounds, methodically opening the white medical kit and searching for gauze, scalpels, and tourniquets.
Ning Chen swiftly snatched the gun from Huo Muxi, quickly turned the muzzle, and aimed it at Huo Muxi's forehead.
Ning Chen pressed hard, the muzzle of the gun pressing firmly against Huo Muxi's skin, leaving a circular indentation where the skin sank in.
"Achen, don't be impulsive!" Ning Moran was closest to Ning Chen, so he stepped forward and grabbed his brother's hand to stop him from making a mistake.
Ning Chen's eyes flashed with danger. He pushed Ning Moran aside and fired without mercy, hitting Huo Muxi in the calf.
Huo Muxi cried out in pain, and fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
All members of the Huo family were surrounded by a swarm of black-clad bodyguards, and no one dared to make a move.
Ning Chen twitched his jaw muscles slightly and casually tossed Huo Muxi's gun out of the cabin window. The glass shattered, and the gun flew out of the window and into the water.
Neither Ning Chen nor Ning Moran paid any attention to Huo Muxi, who was shot on the ground, and hurriedly went to Wen Tingye's side.
Ning Chen opened his lips, but couldn't utter a single word. His knuckles were clenched tightly, and his eyes were filled with guilt.
"Mom, are you alright?" Ning Moran blurted out, her eyes overflowing with concern.
God knows how nervous he was when he heard that gunshot; his mind went almost blank, and he couldn't think straight at all.
Ning Yao shook her head, but her gaze remained fixed on Wen Tingye.
Wen Tingye sat upright with his back straight. If it weren't for his pale lips, no one would have noticed that he was injured.
"What did you call her?" Wen Tingye's deep eyes were still clear, without a trace of illness.
The doctors treated his wounds without even using anesthesia, but he didn't even flinch.
"I..." Ning Moran was taken aback by Wen Tingye's question, but quickly recovered.
"Let the doctor treat the wound first, don't talk." Ning Yao came to Ning Moran's rescue, stepped forward and scolded Wen Tingye, turning his face to face in annoyance so he wouldn't look at Ning Moran.
Ning Yao's fingers were icy cold from the sight of Wen Tingye being shot. Wen Tingye raised his palm and enveloped Ning Yao's hand, silently warming it.
"Ouch, it hurts! You bastards, you're just standing there watching! Someone come and bandage my wound!"
Huo Muxi was injured and cried out in pain on the ground, but no one paid any attention to her.
She kept crying out in pain, which was so loud it hurt people's ears. Ning Yao had been focused on Wen Tingye, but Huo Muxi's cries made her turn her head. Her beautiful fox eyes were now cold to the bone, exuding a chilling aura.
Ning Yao quickly stepped forward and snatched a sharp dagger from Wen Tingye's men.
Ning Chen's heart tightened, but he didn't stop Ning Yao. Instead, he fired his gun and destroyed all the surveillance equipment in the cabin.
Ning Moran then took out some medicine, intending to give Huo Muxi a second chance when she was on the verge of death.
Huo Muxi saw Ning Yao walking towards her with a dagger in her hand and shrank back in fright, but she quickly calmed down.
"What, you dare to kill someone? You should know I'm from the Huo family... Uh... Luo Xiyao, are you crazy!"
Before she could finish speaking, Huo Muxi let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.
It turned out that Ning Yao had raised the dagger and swiftly and viciously plunged it into her calf where she had been shot, aiming directly at the wound.
Before she finished, she twisted the blade of the dagger, causing Huo Muxi to almost faint on the spot from the pain.
"Remember this feeling. If you ever dare to touch my man again, I'll make you suffer a hundred times more than you are now!" Ning Yao said fiercely.
At this moment, her eyes were bloodshot, as if she had become a different person.
