My Wife is Actually a top-tier Soldier King?!
Chapter 545 - 545 545 The Last Meal before Execution

545: Chapter 545: The Last Meal before Execution 545: Chapter 545: The Last Meal before Execution Set off at ease?

Mu En’s brows furrowed coldly.

His gaze, icy and deep, fixed on Wu Jie.

What did this mean?

Was he about to die?

Or, was Wu Jie just talking nonsense?

Mu En was at a loss.

Seeing his reaction, Wu Jie couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“Fuck!

What are you dazing for?

Got scared?”

“You, Mu En, kill without blinking an eye, what’s there to be afraid of?

Hurry up and sit down!”

With that, Wu Jie picked up the bottle of alcohol and poured two cups with a gurgle.

Mu En sat down, skeptical.

Although handcuffs and leg irons were inconvenient for running away, simple actions like eating and walking weren’t affected.

Wu Jie raised his glass with a smile:

“One for Xu Juan, and one for Xu Xinyi!”

Saying so, Wu Jie poured both cups onto the ground.

Mu En grew even more puzzled.

Good drinks…

why share one with me?

To toast to two members of the Xu Family, when the Tianyuan Tang Family had always been on bad terms with them?

A toast for what?

“Are you fucking sick?

Running here to toast them?”

Mu En snorted coldly, grabbing the marinated meat and started eating.

There was a time…

When he, the renowned Mr.

Mu, would never have dignified such street food with a glance.

Marinated pork head, chicken wings, chicken feet…

That was something only the poor ate, right?

But now, Mu En found it absolutely delicious.

In the detention center these days, the meals were sufficient only to stave off hunger and death, nowhere near flavorful or appetizing.

With hands cuffed, Mu En bowed his head and ate voraciously and fiercely.

The marinated meat, once scorned, was now irresistibly tasty.

Watching Mu En devour it, Wu Jie could only imagine the quality of food in the detention center.

Slowly pouring the alcohol, Wu Jie gave Mu En a glass.

“Know why I toasted them?

Because less than half an hour ago, they fought to the death right in front of me!”

“In our hometown, if you witness someone die an unnatural death, the first meal is to toast and send them off, to cast off the bad luck!”

“Otherwise, why would our tradition have a saying like ‘the dead are supreme’?”

Mu En looked up.

With his head still bandaged in medical gauze, his face was bruised and swollen.

But his fierce eating, lips greasy, made him appear rather pitiable.

There’s something hateful about those deserving pity.

Mu En’s wretched appearance did nothing to evoke Wu Jie’s sympathy.

“Isn’t Xu Xinyi Xu Juan’s own niece?

How could they kill each other so violently?”

Mu En picked up his glass and drained it.

Wu Jie smiled faintly: “What else but the family fortune!

But it’s none of your concern, right?

You won’t be getting out anyway!”

“I…”

Mu En looked down at himself.

It was a miserable sight.

The detention cell he was kept in was specially designed and decorated.

Even the walls were padded, all to prevent suicides out of fear of punishment.

And he, in the hopes of getting medical bail, had not stopped trying to self-harm…

But where did that get him?

He ended up covered in wounds, completely unable to leave.

The hospital sent medical personnel directly to the detention center for treatment.

He couldn’t leave!

Wu Jie’s words filled Mu En with a burning resentment.

“It’s all your fucking fault!

Had it not been for you, I would’ve been in a helicopter out of here that very day!”

“And go where?”

Wu Jie scoffed:

“Do you think you could easily get away with such a serious crime?”

“Even if you got on a plane, and your private jet managed to take off, could you ensure your safe departure across national borders?”

Mu En gritted his teeth and took a deep breath, trembling slightly.

It was infuriating!

He knew that each time he encountered Wu Jie, bad luck was sure to follow!

But why, oh why?

Why did Wu Jie, like a persistent ghost, keep haunting him?

However, what Wu Jie had just said was true.

Use martial prowess to violate bans!

An ordinary person, with great abilities, could do anything they wanted, breaking any taboo.

And a country with powerful arms…

To obliterate someone riddled with crimes, how difficult would it need to be?

There were countless ways to instantly kill Mu En.

So…

In the end!

Mu En kept silent and continued to eat frantically.

He seemed determined to vent all his grievances on the food.

The chicken wings and feet, he couldn’t be bothered to spit out the bones, crunching and gnawing ferociously, swallowing them whole.

“Slow down!

Don’t you dare fucking burst like a balloon in front of me!”

“I’ve already seen two dead bodies today, and I don’t want to see another!”

Wu Jie poured himself some alcohol and took a sip without a care.

Mu En suddenly looked up.

He glanced around vigilantly.

There were no surveillance cameras inside the detention room, only in the corridor outside.

“I know why you’re here, you either want to know where Kun Qianxi is, or you’re after my money, right?”

“You’ve already drained all my savings in the country, now you’re eyeing my overseas accounts?”

Mu En asked with a burning gaze.

Wu Jie replied with a faint smile.

“A gentleman loves money, obtained in an honourable way!

I’m a scoundrel, my ways of making money don’t need to be confined to any rules!”

Mu En snorted heavily.

“If you weren’t the son-in-law of the Tianyuan Tang Family, you would’ve been killed hundreds of times over!”

“Since you’ve come here to see me, it means you’re looking to cooperate!”

“How about we put on a show?

I kidnap you, and as long as I can get out, I’ll give you at least fifty million Gold Coins!”

“Remember!

In Gold Coins!

That makes you more badass than any domestic celebrity or fresh-faced star!”

“Do they earn fifty million Gold Coins for a movie?”

…

Mu En seduced him persistently, keeping his eyes fixed on Wu Jie.

He had a strong hunch that Wu Jie, as a ‘greedy scoundrel’, would definitely agree in a heartbeat.

Fifty million Gold Coins, that should be enough to appeal to Wu Jie’s greed, right?

However…

Wu Jie shook his head straight away.

“I told you, there’s no way out for you!

Even if we play-act and you take me hostage, do you really think you could escape?”

“There’s a whole platoon of special forces stationed outside, just to keep you under tight watch!”

“If you dare take me hostage, wouldn’t that be giving their snipers a legitimate and reasonable chance to blow your dog head off?”

Mu En glared fiercely.

“I…”

“What ‘I’?

Just eat up, you’ll need it for the road ahead!” Wu Jie urged impatiently.

The words made Mu En hesitate even more.

“No way!

Why aren’t you eating?

You’ve only had a bit of alcohol?

Fuck, you didn’t poison this, did you?”

Wu Jie rolled his eyes:

“What’s the point of poisoning you to death for me?”

“Have you seen anyone who would compete with a condemned prisoner for his last meal?”

Mu En was completely infuriated, seething with resentment inside.

Wu Jie’s brows slightly furrowed.

Fucking hell!

What’s wrong with this Mu En guy?

Hate once, and now there are just a few hundred energy points?

Where’s his money?

Suddenly!

Mu En roared with rage.

“What the fuck do you want?

Stop playing mysterious!”

“Although I’ve killed countless people and I deserve to die, I must die knowing why!”

As he poured himself another drink, Wu Jie asked with a chuckle:

“Panicking?

Scared?

You yourself said you deserve it, isn’t that clear enough?”

Mu En retorted angrily, “I’m talking about the specific charges!

Who the fuck wants to kill me?

For what reason?

I haven’t been tried yet, I have no charges!

Surely I’m not to be executed in secret, right?”

Wu Jie’s eyebrows raised.

“Smart!

You figured that out pretty quick!”

There was a thud!

Wu Jie slammed his service pistol on the table.

Mu En’s eyes bulged with anger, his body trembling.

“Fuck!

Is that a police gun?

Where did you get it from?”

“Wu Jie!

Just who the hell are you?

What kind of fucking last meal have you brought me?”

This time, Mu En was truly, utterly panicked.

Without saying a word, Wu Jie also slapped two IDs on the table.

Now!

Mu En fell silent in a heartbeat.

It seemed he had finally pieced everything together.

“I…

I should’ve known earlier you were no ordinary man!”

“How could Tang Xiao be willing to marry an ordinary clerk?

And how could you appear so coincidentally on the rooftop?”

“Turns out you’re actually a secret agent!

Fuck!”

Mu En gritted his teeth hard, his fists clenched tightly.

Wu Jie smiled, “Now you see, I wasn’t lying, right?”

“So, you’re here to see me off?” Mu En pointed to the ‘investigation permit’ with a disbelieving look, “I always thought you were just a backstabber, I didn’t expect you to actually have such skills!”

Wu Jie just smiled and remained silent.

Mu En could no longer sit still and stood up abruptly.

“So tell me!

How do you plan to kill me?

Will you shoot me dead directly, or did you poison this food?”

Looking at the incensed Mu En, Wu Jie said with a smile:

“You’re so negative.

How could I bear to kill you with my own hands?”

“Why not?

You think I’m an idiot?” Mu En pointed at Wu Jie’s credentials, “Even if you kill me right now, you just have to write up a report!

Kill with a license, act first, report after, cool as hell!”

Wu Jie squinted his eyes and sized up Mu En carefully.

“So eager to die?”
