Chapter 965: The Finale of Feng And Wan (7)
By the time Shangguan Wan and Ye Yanfeng brought people to Baili Mountain, the sky was darkening gradually.
They stopped the car in front of a forest of osmanthus trees. There was a small path ahead and the car would not be able to drive through.
Shangguan Wan and Ye Yanfeng got out of the car and looked at each other. “We can only walk.”
They were about to enter the osmanthus forest when suddenly, a figure came running towards them.
That person should be a beggar as he was in ragged clothes. He handed a phone to Ye Yanfeng and grinned. “Somebody asked me to give it to you!”
Shangguan Wan let the beggar go and she stood beside Ye Yanfeng, looking at the phone.
A video was recorded in the phone.
“You’re faster than I thought. Now, only Your Highness can go in. The others back up 500 meters! If you disobey, I will kill all of the hostages!”
With a thump, Shangguan Wan’s heart jolted. She looked at Ye Yanfeng and said with a frown, “There might be a trap if you go in alone!”
Ye Yanfeng held Shangguan Wan’s slender shoulders, his gaze gloomy. “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely save our son!”
Shangguan Wan nodded. “Take care of yourself.”
She took the others and retreated out of the osmanthus forest.
Ye Yanfeng went in alone and after a hundred meters, he found an abandoned building.
It must be built by the owner of the osmanthus forest in the past. It had a large area and the owner might have wanted to build a castle, but the war broke out before it could be completed.
There were no lamps and it was dark all around.
Ye Yanfeng could vaguely see a castle of six stories, with countless big and small rooms. A frown crossed his face. It would not be easy to find Little Xingxing with so many rooms!
Still, Ye Yanfeng pursed his lips and strode in.
He did not notice that after he went in, someone spilled petrol around the castle. Ye Yanfeng looked around the first floor, but did not find Little Xingxing.
He then went up to the second and third floor, but still could not find him.
When he reached the fourth storey, Ye Yanfeng suddenly smelled a burning smell. He went to the window and saw that a fire was burning downstairs.
Ye Yanfeng’s expression darkened and he cursed.
He sped up his pace in finding Little Xingxing.
He could not let Wanwan be sad, or let Xingxing be disappointed!
He had not heard Xingxing call him ‘Dad’, so he must not let anything happen to him!
…
Outside the osmanthus forest.
Shangguan Wan looked at the fire in the distance and her heart jumped to her throat. Whipping out her phone, she called the force to send helicopters over immediately.
…
The fire became bigger under the strong wind of the night, and soon, the fourth floor was also on fire.
Ye Yanfeng went up to the fifth floor and in a small room, he finally found Shangguan Rao and Little Xingxing.
They had already regained consciousness.
Shangguan Rao saw Ye Yanfeng and looked at him like he was her savior. She kept shouting, “Brother Yanfeng, save me, save me!”
Compared with Shangguan Rao’s panic, Little Xingxing seemed calm. But seeing Ye Yanfeng coming, his eyes turned slightly red.
Ye Yanfeng came forward, pulled open the glass box and carried Little Xingxing out.
“Don’t be afraid, Dad is here to save you.” His voice was deep and hoarse, but under such circumstances, it seemed extremely precious and soothing.
Little Xingxing’s long eyelashes fluttered and he looked at Ye Yanfeng’s handsome face. There was a gentleness in his upturned eyes.
Although Ye Yanfeng did not like Shangguan Rao, she was still Shangguan Wan’s sister. So he went forward, pulled her out of the glass box and untied the rope for her.
There wasn’t any time to talk. Ye Yanfeng picked up Little Xingxing and led Shangguan Rao upstairs.
The stairway was full of choking smoke and it was hard to breathe. Ye Yanfeng covered Little Xingxing’s mouth and nose and ran to the top floor in one breath.
But then, a strange ticking sound suddenly sounded in the silent air.
Ye Yanfeng looked at Little Xingxing who was in his arms and his expression changed, a chill running up his spine. He pulled apart Little Xingxing’s clothes and found that a time bomb was strapped on his chest.
The bomb was exquisitely made, with red numbers on the screen, counting down.
Ye Yanfeng’s heart tightened.
F*ck! That person wanted them dead!
The bomb could not be taken down. There were several wires on it and only one must be cut.
But if he cut wrongly, Little Xingxing would be blown to pieces.
When Shangguan Rao saw this, her face paled. The numbers on the bomb were jumping very fast and she said hurriedly, “Brother Yanfeng, there’s only two minutes left. It’s too late, we have to leave!”
If they did not leave, not only would there be an explosion, the fire would spread up too.
Ye Yanfeng looked at Shangguan Rao coldly. “If you want to leave, you can leave yourself!”
Shangguan Rao had never seen such expression on Ye Yanfeng’s face before, he was like a demon from hell, eerie and terrifying, making her unable to meet his eyes.
Ye Yanfeng said nothing more to Shangguan Rao. He put Little Xingxing on the ground and squatted in front of him, taking out a sharp knife from his boots.
He inspected the wires of the bomb carefully.
Little Xingxing, who had been silent, looked at Ye Yanfeng with red eyes. When he saw that Ye Yanfeng’s forehead was covered with sweat, he raised his small hand and wiped it for him.
Ye Yanfeng was stunned, but very soon, focused on the bomb.
Little Xingxing looked at the screen which showed that one minute was left and he said with a choked voice, “Daddy.”
The blood in Ye Yanfeng’s body surged up when he heard the word ‘Daddy’. His eyes also turned red. “Here.”
“Daddy, Daddy, Daddy…” Little Xingxing kept calling him. He was afraid that he would not have the chance to call him ‘Dad’ again.
Ye Yanfeng nodded. “Daddy won’t give up.”
“Daddy, take Auntie away. Just leave me.”
“Silly child, Daddy won’t leave. I’ll stay with you!”
At this moment, the sound of an engine could be heard on the roof. Shangguan Wan was in the helicopter and when she saw Ye Yanfeng and the rest, she threw down the safety ladder. “Come up!”
When Shangguan Rao saw this, she immediately climbed up.
But Ye Yanfeng did not move and was focused on the bomb at Little Xingxing’s chest.
He would not leave his son even if he died!
When Little Xingxing saw this, tears fell from his eyes.
“Daddy, I missed you. I don’t hate you at all.”
Ye Yanfeng pursed his lips and trembled slightly. “That’s my boy!”
…
On the helicopter, Shangguan Wan saw Shangguan Rao climbing up and she asked, “Why aren’t they coming up?”
“There’s a bomb strapped to Little Xingxing’s chest!”
When Shangguan Wan heard this, she did not think much and immediately planned to slide down the safety ladder. Shangguan Rao grabbed her. “Sister, there’s not much time left. It will explode before you even reach the roof!”
Shangguan Wan shook off Shangguan Rao’s hands and tried to get down, but she was pulled back by two other rescue staff in the helicopter.
