Chapter 78: Twist of Events

Book:Love Like Arsenic Published:2024-5-31

I looked at him in shock, unable to believe that his first reaction was so calm.
Through the small glass window, I saw the grimness and scornfulness on Zhao Dong’s face, which made me certain that I had heard him correctly.
I finally relaxed a little, and my vision turned blurry uncontrollably.
Fortunately, he knew how to fight back.
But what shocked me even more surprised was what Quan Shaoze said next.
I didn’t expect that he already knew the things that were going to happen today.
And he was even prepared!
When I saw those who were taken hostage took out their guns and pointed them at Quan Jinnnian’s men upon hearing Quan Shaoze’s order, I was completely stunned.
Right after this, several huge ships started approaching slowly from the fog over the sea surface, surrounding the cruise ship. The people on them were all fully equipped and ready to attack.
The twist of events happened too fast, and I wasn’t the only one who was stunned; even Zhao Dong was looking at the outside with a dazed and gloomy expression.
Looking at the coldness on Quan Shaoze’s face, I felt as though I was getting to know him for the first time.
This man had taken me by surprise again.
“Brother, I have to say that your plan isn’t perfect enough. What else do you want to say now?” Quan Shaoze sneered and took a glance at Quan Jinnian in disdain.
Upon closer look, there was a hint of sadness in his deep, cold eyes.
Having seen that clearly, my heart sank.
This was the elder brother whom he had always respected and been close with. If he had a choice, I think that Quan Shaoze wouldn’t choose to go against Quan Jinnian like this.
The perfect plan that Quan Jinnian had thought to be was completely disclosed
by Quan Shaoze, and his eyes turned red in disbelief.
After looking around and certain that he was really surrounded, he suddenly shot at Quan Shaoze hysterically, his eyes red and his face twisted.
When I heard the gunshot, my heart almost stopped beating.
My scalp immediately turned numb from the gunshot and Quan Jinnian’s desperate cries, and I completely lost my rationality.
No! Nothing could ever happen to Quan Shaoze!
With this conviction, I put up a desperate fight with Zhao Dong.
Luckily, I knocked out Zhao Dong, winning this time.
But I was also injured-when I held Zhao Dong’s head and bang it against the wall, he had also dragged and pushed me against it.
Fortunately, I was fine other than feeling a little dizzy.
Quan Jinnian had already gone mad when I ran out in desperation. He kept firing at Quan Shaoze and didn’t care if he himself would be shot.
The secret sniper was afraid of injuring Quan Shaoze and hadn’t dared to shoot. However, Quan Shaoze, whose leg was already injured, had lost his ability to move around.
Seeing Quan Jinnian’s gun slowly aiming at his heart again, my heartbeat suddenly stopped, and my mind was blank. Without even thinking, I rushed straight to Quan Shaoze to take the bullet for Quan Jinnian.
Quan Shaoze, who didn’t know that I was actually on the ship, was very shocked at the sight of me.
Looking at his eyes, I could see the immense joy in his dark eyes after knowing that I wasn’t dead.
But the next moment, his shock turned into panic and concern, “Lin Feng!”
At this moment, Quan Jinnian had run out of bullets and was shot down by the sniper.
His last struggle was stopped by Quan Shaoze’s men who rushed over.
With a sigh of relief, I collapsed on the ground weakly, my eyes half-closed with exhaustion.
I was glad that Quan Shaoze was okay.
