Chapter 211: Chapter 211: Spending Fifty Million to Save a Child’s Life

"Stop!"

Qin Yan suddenly shouted, Bo Yunshen glanced in her direction. The woman was holding a gun, and the actions of both parties suddenly ceased.

They weren’t far apart, but for some reason, neither of them could make out Qin Yan’s expression clearly.

She was holding a gun, her clothing lifted by the wind into an arc, her arm moved, pointing at the man with the big beard.

"Mrs. Bo, a gun is a dangerous weapon. If you have something to say, put it down first."

"Bo Yunshen, did you hire him to kidnap my daughter?"

Qin Yan’s voice was very faint; Bo Yunshen couldn’t tell anything was wrong just from the tone in which she spoke.

"That’s correct, but Mrs. Bo, I didn’t harm your daughter at all. You, with that gun—are you sure you’re pointing it at the right person?"

The big-bearded man’s face was wounded, his speech nonchalant. If it weren’t for his tightly clasped hands revealing a slight hint of emotion, Qin Yan might have been fooled by him.

"There’s a family shrine of the Bo Family built on the hill behind their house, non-Bo Family members simply can’t get in! Mrs. Bo, I managed to take your daughter from the mountain—do you think I could have done it without someone letting me through?"

"I did receive the task rather hastily, but I’m not mistaken about who my employer is!"

"To seek fortune within danger—a life of a child for fifty million!"

"To us, that’s a great deal!"

A great deal?

In their eyes, Qin Yinyin was just a transaction?

"Is what you’re saying the truth?"

The big-bearded man nodded, and Qin Yan’s voice trembled harshly: "Doing such immoral things, aren’t you afraid of retribution?"

The big-bearded man gave a profound smile, but didn’t speak.

Retribution, they had long stopped believing in that!

"Bo Yunshen, do you have anything else to say?"

Qin Yan asked again.

Bo Yunshen’s vision momentarily darkened.

He truly couldn’t understand what the kidnapper had in mind.

Why was he so insistent that it was him who wanted to kidnap Yinyin, that it was him who wanted Qin Yinyin’s life!

Qin Yan was usually quite sharp—why was she so easily convinced by a kidnapper’s words now?

That he kidnapped Qin Yinyin, he thought, this was likely just a charade orchestrated by Qin Yan!

A hint of blood red seeped into the depths of Bo Yunshen’s eyes, he squinted his eyes, glancing in Qin Yan’s direction, her voice ringing in his ears.

Light and sprightly, it was unbearably invasive!

"Bo Yunshen, you got the standoff you wanted! Even Yinyin said, what she overheard was you wanting her dead!"

"I’m asking you, what on earth did Yinyin do to you, that you can’t even let go of a child?"

Qin Yan’s question came out in an exhausted shout, at which Bo Yunshen moved a step towards her direction. Seeing this, the big-bearded man stretched out his hand to stop Bo Yunshen.

His emotions running high, Bo Yunshen suddenly lunged in the direction of the big beard.

Having been caught off guard once, the big-bearded man naturally wouldn’t make the same mistake twice; the two of them were once again locked in a fierce struggle, the scene descended into chaos.

The summer night was still, and the sound of Qin Yan engaging the safety catch of the gun was amplified countless times, startling the big-bearded man into freezing mid-motion.

He instinctively pulled Bo Yunshen in front of him.

"Mrs. Bo, at most I am an accomplice, please don’t act rashly."

Bo Yunshen was severely injured, and his skirmish with the big beard was a genuine fight; he didn’t come out with any advantage.

When the big beard pulled him, Bo Yunshen’s chest was exposed under Qin Yan’s gun muzzle. Through the darkness of the night, the man’s gaze collided with the depths of Qin Yan’s, the hatred in her eyes was so intense...

So intense that Bo Yunshen couldn’t ignore it, not even if he tried!

Did she truly want to kill him?!

The lingering pain deep in his heart was suddenly magnified, Bo Yunshen couldn’t stop himself from shuddering.

His eyes flickered with a trace of emptiness.

He had repeatedly dived into water on the mountain searching for Qin Yan, nearly dying up there, and in the end, all he got in return was Qin Yan’s hatred.

Fine then!

Great!

He, Bo Yunshen, had not yet come to hate her, and yet she had beaten him to it!

Up in the mountains, he should have let Qin Yan be crushed to death by the falling rocks!

Qin Yan seemed not to have heard the bearded man’s words. Her lips quivered as she looked at Bo Yunshen and enunciated every word:

"Today, if you don’t explain yourself, none of us will leave here alive!"

"I may be incompetent, but I would never smile and oblige when you’re planning to take my daughter’s life!"

Bo Yunshen’s arm struggled free as he pointed to his own brow:

"Fine!"

"Shoot here!"

His licked his lips, and his voice was as cold as a shard of ice, "If I dodge, I won’t be called Bo Yunshen!"

Bo Yunshen felt indescribably sick to his stomach. From his childhood to adulthood, although he had not always gotten everything his way,

he had never been driven to such a desperate situation.

This feeling was all too familiar!

It was just like three years ago when he was forced to marry Qin Yan—utterly revolting!

Other than Qin Yan, he really could not think of anyone else capable of such cunning and tactics!

"I truly hate, I truly hate myself for being so foolish, for being blind, for encountering scum like you and not seeing through you!"

Qin Yan’s hand holding the gun trembled violently.

"If you lay a hand on my daughter, I..."

She did not finish her sentence, but those few words were enough to send a shiver through the bearded man. His eyes shifted...

The bullet had quite a penetrating force; in Qin Yan’s current state, it was very likely to kill Bo Yunshen.

In case Qin Yan inadvertently harmed him...

Thinking this, the kidnapper unconsciously released Bo Yunshen’s arm.

He had only come out to use the restroom when he spotted Bo Yunshen’s men. Having narrowly escaped the watchful eyes, he did not want to die!

Thinking this, the bearded man gripped Bo Yunshen’s throat tightly.

"Mrs. Bo, I’ll kill him for you... just put down the gun!"

Bo Yunshen’s breathing grew more and more labored; he had been running a fever before his arrival and had been in a car accident!

To have held off the bearded man thus far was already the limit!

He dragged himself along, yet Qin Yan didn’t call for help to rescue him!

Was Qin Yan really intent on killing him?

Bo Yunshen cursed under his breath; with the bearded man’s choking method, he had at most one minute left...

Bo Yunshen cast a glance in Qin Yan’s direction and sneered in anger.

He had not died in the mountains saving Qin Yan, yet now he might die in this godforsaken place trying to save Qin Yan’s daughter.

Bo Yunshen felt nothing but suffocation!

The starlight scattered on the ground, casting a layer of silver-grey over Qin Yan’s eyelashes.

"I want his life!"

"This is a grudge between the two of us!"

"If you intervene, I will take your life as well!"

Qin Yan’s voice was hoarse, "Get the hell out of the way!"

"Fine, fine, fine!"

Hearing this, the bearded man let go of Bo Yunshen, raised his hands, and tugged at the corner of his mouth towards Qin Yan, carefully sidestepping away.

Without the support of the bearded man, Bo Yunshen, deprived of oxygen, swayed and then collapsed onto the ground.

He gasped heavily for air.

"Bang!"

Qin Yan’s hand was numb from the shot; standing in the Night Club, her face was deathly pale, and she looked at Bo Yunshen who lay on the ground before tremblingly dropping the gun.
