100 Days Of Escaping My Wedding-Chapter 519: Only Three Seconds Given

Your appearance has only enlightened me to the fact that the most terrible and dreadful thing in my life is not the truth that Gong Zhiming, such a bastard, is my father.

I never expected you to give me fatherly love, but you even took away my motherly love! The title of ’father’, do you think you deserve it?"

Huo Yandong didn’t refute a single word, just stood there somewhat dazedly, looking at the setting sun that was about to fall, "You only have three seconds."

"One!"

Huo Yandong suddenly turned around and fired a shot with lightning speed at the person trying to attack him from behind.

"Two..."

This time, nobody dared to move rashly.

"Three." Huo Yandong looked at her and touched the button, as if he was ready to press it the next moment.

Xiaoqiao turned her head away, her face full of humiliation and unwillingness, and in an almost inaudible voice, she forced out two words through gritted teeth—

"Father!!!"

After hearing this, Huo Yandong suddenly showed a sinister smile, and then, without warning, raised his gun.

A cry of alarm came from the crowd.

"Watch out—"

But it was already too late.

A gunshot—"bang"—and then—

Xiaoqiao’s vision had gone completely dark...

Following that was the dull thud of a body falling.

What on earth... happened...

Without knowing when, Gu Hangshen had rushed over from behind and held her tightly in his arms, his large hand covering her eyes tightly, shielding her line of sight.

After the gunshot, she still did not understand what had happened. She thought she had been shot, but there was no sensation of pain on her body.

She struggled to push Gu Hangshen’s hand away, but he wouldn’t let go at all.

"Xiaoqiao, don’t look..."

Accompanied by Gu Hangshen’s words, "Huo Yandong committed suicide..."

Xiaoqiao hadn’t even had time to be shocked before she completely lost consciousness.

—

"He actually committed suicide..."

Everyone seemed still a bit stunned, all with lingering fears.

"Quick, check that bomb!" someone said aloud.

So everyone began scrambling to check the body, tend to the injured, and inspect the bomb.

"Where the hell did he hide the bomb?"

"Lian Yi, is there a mechanism in this button? It seems quite high-tech!"

"Do you want to die? Don’t mess with it!"

Lian Yi then carefully checked the button. She had learned bomb disposal with her brother before, but she still couldn’t see anything significant.

Gu Hangshen glanced at the button lightly, "No need to look any further, it’s really just a button."

Everybody was astonished at his words.

"What... What!? Are you kidding?"

"Damn! That was too cunning! I was nearly scared to death just now!"

"No wonder he chose to kill himself! There was no bomb after all! He knew he was doomed!"

"That really let the bastard off easy!"

...

...

Gu Hangshen silently picked up Xiaoqiao and walked down the mountain.

Although the so-called bomb didn’t exist, what they didn’t know was that Huo Yandong could have used that threat to make them let him go, yet, he only used it to force Xiaoqiao to call him "father".

Perhaps, at the moment before his death, he was repenting.

"Ah—"

Xiaoqiao screamed and sat up sharply from the bed, her heartbeat chaotic, gasping for breath.

The sound of the gunshot was still echoing in her mind, the terror unable to be dispelled.

"Xiaoqiao, you’re awake!"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Xiaoqiao finally lifted her head that was buried in her palms.

Gu Hangshen had been next door with Tang Yu, but he hurried over when he heard the noise, and before he could reach her, she had clumsily climbed off the bed and thrown herself into his arms, shivering in his chest. ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
