The Devil's Sleeping Beauty Chapter 22

Lu Yifeng stood in the same spot indifferently and didn't move an inch when he saw the people charging towards him just like a calm lion watching his prey on the move. It wasn't until those men almost reached him that he turned on his toes subtly. He gripped the person who was close to him and threw him directly at another attacker like he was throwing a sandbag. He turned and a 'bang' reverberated through the air as he did a spinning kick. The man closest to him didn't even have time to make a move and flew backward from the kick. "Ah—" Blood spewed out of the man's mouth and he was unconscious in an instant. There were twelve highly trained men. But in the end, they didn't even have the power to fight back and were sent flying one after another. Lu Yifeng's face the whole time was blank and his eyes were cold as a menacing atmosphere surrounded him. Because of his powerful movements, the wound on his body reopened. Blood started oozing out of his bandaged body which later on was visible on his shirt. The eyes of a bald and burly man lit up. Lu Yifeng's injured! He moved swiftly and pounced onto Lu Yifeng from behind. Seeing that he was completely unaware, the baldy was elated. Bang! A loud gunshot echoed throughout the place. Blood flowed out of the bald man's head before he fell over, dead. The men in suits were surprised by what happened. They instantly turned their heads towards where they heard the sound but they weren't able to see a thing because it was dark. Their cars' headlights were pointing toward one side only so it was impossible to light up the whole warehouse. They never expected that Lu Yifeng has a companion hiding in the dark. They pulled out their guns and pointed it towards Lu Yifeng. "Whoever you are, come out or he dies!" A man shouted. Lu Yifeng's face was pale, if this went on any longer, he would faint there but he tried to stay on his ground with a calm look on his face. Although, even he wonder who could be the person in the dark. It was until following gunshots were heard. Blood flowed out of the foreheads of the men that had guns, their eyes opened wide in shock and they then fell on the floor soon after. Xia Meiren's eyes were sharp even in the dark. She was fast and her accuracy is terrifying; the range that she shot at was precisely the maximum shooting range of the gun she used. Extraordinary speed plus advanced calculations and astonishing precision, her skills as a marksman was amazing! Xia Meiren was always good in handling guns. Having a grandmother who was once in the military was the reason behind this. When Xia Meiren and her brother was taken in by their grandparents, Ji Ruo taught them everything she knows, from handling guns to fighting. Ji Ruo wanted them to be strong enough to be able to protect themselves. Though for Xia Meiren, she was never good in fighting with fists because of her weak body. Although, who could have thought that she was actually a genius in handling a gun? In the dark, with footsteps as light as a feather, Xia Meiren walked towards the light and showed herself while she points the gun that Lu Yifeng gave her to the two men who she left alive. "Put your weapons down if you want to live." The two men who were left took a step back instinctively. Their eyes filled with fear when they saw how threatening Xia Meiren look. One was holding a knife while the other was holding a bat. They couldn't believe that all this time, a fragile looking girl was the one who killed their companions! With her speed and accuracy, she was able to kill their companions while sje was hiding in the dark! They placed their weapons down and kicked it away from them. Why leave them alive? She knows that Lu Yifeng would need them for interrogation. Lu Yifeng was surprised to see that the person who saved him was his wife. He couldn't help but feel proud of her. His eyes lit up and were full of admiration for her. Seeing Lu Yifeng's shirt with blood, Xia Meiren started panicking. He was hurt! She was so focused on the men around him that she didn't realize that he was bleeding! She quickly went to Lu Yifeng side and as she did, the backup that Zi Lin called finally arrived. The two men were captured and brought in the car by some of Lu Yifeng's men. "Y-you! H-how did this happen?" Xia Meiren was sure that she didn't saw anyone hit him while he was fighting them earlier. He didn't say anything but instead, he placed his hand on her cheek as he stared down at her. She looked so worried... was she worried of him? "Boss!" "Master!" Some of the men quickly approached them. Knowing that everything was now alright, Lu Yifeng blackened out and was about to fall on the ground only to be caught by one of the men who approached him. "Lu Yifeng!" Xia Meiren felt like her heart was about to fall out of her chest when she saw him faint. "Quick! Bring him to the hospital!"
