Chapter 708: Chapter 467: Mr. Jing Expresses Helplessness (Triple Update)_2

He frowned heavily, their leader gestured for the two men to push the hostage inside. Seeing the gleeful grin on the man’s face, his own face was clouded with a helpless grimness.

"Keep moving." He issued the order without hesitation, spurring those already halfway through their actions to start moving again.

They no longer had anything to hold over their enemy, but they also absolutely couldn’t continue being on the defensive. It was uncertain whether the lunatics inside would truly release the other half of the hostages.

They had to prepare for the worst-case scenario, if it came to it, they could only save as many as possible.

This was their direst contingency plan.

When the hostage was sent in, the main gate was slowly shut once more. Those who had the chance to escape were praying and celebrating while the others got out, grateful for their lives. Many had left due to the ominous aura this place gave off. However, many others remained behind, wanting to see how the situation would unfold, hoping that all the hostages inside would be safely rescued.

Regardless, they wanted to see the outcome here; otherwise, they would regret it.

Especially now that they were safe.

Inside the video feed.

"My brother!" The man who had just entered gave a group of masked men a tight embrace as he walked over to his leader, giving him a heavy hug, "Bro, all the years of caring for you were not wasted." Even within this situation, he had never lost hope, as he knew that he would sooner or later get out.

Now, heh heh heh... he could already imagine the looks on some people’s faces.

The leader laughed at his words.

"What’s our next move?" The man turned around, looking unhesitatingly at the remaining thousands of hostages. He snatched a weapon from someone nearby, "Can I..." His meaning was already clear with these words.

The leader remained silent. However, at this moment, Mu Lin spoke up, "I advise you not to act rashly. Every bullet in your hand will ultimately be a gun hanging over your own head." There was no escaping it.

She was not joking.

"A woman?" On hearing these words, the man coldly looked at Mu Lin, then turned to the leader, "Is she yours?" He had seen this woman standing there so calmly on the outside screen, "Bro, you got married already in a few months’ absence? Good taste."

He seemed to like Mu Lin’s looks, but then in the next moment, he pointed his gun straight at her head, "She’s rather bold; hardly anyone dares to talk to me like that." Let alone a woman. He despised bold women.

Though, he did like soft and gentle eastern women.

Watching this scene, the leader’s pupils contracted, he glanced at Mu Lin, warning her to stop talking.

Regrettably, there was no change in Mu Lin’s expression, as if she didn’t acknowledge the barrel of the gun pressed against her forehead. "Did I say anything wrong?" she questioned, apparently thinking she had not said quite enough.

However, in the next moment.

"Big brother, she’s not wrong," the man stepped forward unexpectedly, speaking in favor of Mu Lin, causing an unhappy raised eyebrow from Jing Ye. Was this his place in the situation?

A string of feelings of domination swept over Jing Ye.

He felt helpless. Even though his wife was very impressive.

But always being overshadowed was indeed very upsetting, even though these people didn’t even rate as rivals in his eyes.

The man being addressed as "big brother" wore a fierce expression, casting a cold, warning, and disappointed look at the other man, "Bro, this is the first time you’ve contradicted me all over a woman." It was truly a letdown for him.

As far as he was concerned, women were superfluous, especially when you had sufficient monetary requirements; why care about such an easily replaceable creature?

The man puckered his mouth, shaking his head in denial, "Big brother, it’s not like that. I just didn’t tell you something. You won’t have to bother dirtying your hands later." After saying this, he leaned in close to the leader, whispering a few words. The big man burst into boisterous laughter in the next moment, patting the man on his shoulder, "Hahaha, well done! Truly my brother, ruthless and resolute, just like me." He seemed exceedingly pleased with his performance.

The man looked at Mu Lin, smirking.

Before he could tame this wild she-wolf, he would not allow her to die that easily; not even his big brother could lay a finger on her.

He had discovered such an intriguing eastern woman for the first time; it would be quite compelling to tame her.

Regrettably, at this moment, he didn’t know that the woman in front of him was beyond his capability to control.

Mu Lin watched the two men with a chilling gaze; she had heard everything they said.

Indeed, she had almost forgotten that if she and Chen hadn’t defused everything, there might be about twenty minutes left now.

Twenty more minutes... Hmm, this was indeed a dangerous situation. It wouldn’t be good if they unintentionally let time slip away.

Despite saying this, a profound smirk curved at the corners of Mu Lin’s lips.

The man handed over a timer he held in his hand to the other, who received it with satisfaction. However, the leader’s next words made everyone furrow their brows.

Especially... Jing Ye.
