Chapter 180 - Do the impossible

"Baby, I --" Seraphina was so glad to hear his heartfelt words. Thus, she wanted to say her piece and just forget the world to his embrace. Alas, before she could do or say anything, a loud familiar sound of a gunshot ring on her head.

*BANG!*

Granting that she regularly hears that noise, alas, this time, it felt much deafening as her surrounding instantly went to a mute. She could neither hear the panic caused by the attack nor the voices of a few men in a suit while approaching them.

She just stood there -- frozen. Her eyes were fixed on the man in front of her as she saw him slowly knit his brows. By the next second, she could clearly see his red lips turning pale as drops of blood gradually taint the concrete ground.

'What...' Seraphina subconsciously questions.

*BANG!* Another loud gunshot resonated without any restraint.

Seraphina was sure that the bullet didn't land on her but she could feel an unbearable pain -- much excruciating than any physical injury. It began to limit her breathing after she hears another bullet sound penetrating someone's flesh.

"Sera!" Dragon shouted sensing the dangers that might come upon them. Alas, Seraphina seems to lose all her senses from the shock.

Slowly, Dragon pulled him into his embrace using himself as a shield. The blood cascading down his back was left unconcerned as he tries to protect his most valuable treasure. While Seraphina, on the other hand, was having a hard time processing the current occurrence.

Her hand involuntarily reached his back. Alas, feeling a thick liquid drenching Dragon's back, her eyes subconsciously shift on her hand. There, a liquid as red as ruby stain her hand.

"Master!"

By the time Dragon's men reach their standpoint, two bullets already penetrated their boss' back. They immediately pulled out their guns alas, they didn't open fire as there are still civilians in the vicinity. All they could do was surround Dragon and Seraphina as they guard them.

Max immediately supports Dragon's weak and injured body. Alas, Dragon was much more concern with Seraphina's well-being than his injuries.

"Protect her." He commanded with his hoarse voice.

Seeing Seraphina was in shock, Dragon's heart clenched causing a more agonizing pain than the gunshots. Is this really what he wants for her? This kind of complicated and dangerous world for her? Can he bear the consequences for taking away her bright smile? In his mind, Seraphina was too shocked being in this kind of situation. Thus, he blames himself for it.

"Madam, let's go! It's dangerous!" Max shouted in agitation -- trying to wake her up from her stupor. Just as Max's voice was heard, Seraphina snapped back to reality. She heedlessly follows Max and another man supporting Dragon while other men in suit cover their backs.

Seeing Dragon's back that kept on producing blood, Seraphina rushed to his side with a worried look. Seeing him getting more paler by the second, Seraphina's blood boils to another degree.

'Who--' Just as she was about to speak, Seraphina sensed another faint incoming bullet coming their way. Hence, without a second delay, she snatched the gun that was clipped on the other guard's waist that was supporting Dragon. She immediately throws it in the air -- *pang*.

At the same time, the bullet was diverted in a different direction. Seraphina's eyes bear a deadly gaze as she scrutinizes where it came from. She was sure that their target was Dragon as the third bullet was aiming at his head.

In the midst of the ruckus, Max and the other bodyguards were dumbfounded in an instant. The pretty, innocent looking woman that their master keeps successfully block the bullet. Even them, they didn't sense the incoming bullet as it was impossible for them to trace it. Alas, Seraphina just did the impossible.

Given that some of them witness her physical strength, alas, they conclude that it was all brute force and would cower in fear under gunpoint. After all, in their perspective, Captain Li restained himself. However, this only proves that they thought wrong!

"Let's go," Seraphina speaks in a deadpan tone. No matter how bloodthirsty she was right now, her main priority is securing her lover. After he was safe, she can always exact her revenge on the people behind this.

As they heard her voice, Max's team felt a familiar cold shrill they can only feel around Dragon. Thus, they unconsciously follow her instruction hitching to the car on standby that abruptly stops in front of them.
