Chapter 191 - 191 Saved

191 Saved

Shen Yin saw that Shen Nian was about to throw himself on the dagger that was threatening him. She screamed until she was hoarse as tears spilled from her eyes. Blood seeped from her wrist, but she still could not break free.

Shen Nian looked in Shen Yin’s direction and gave a determined smile. But his eyes were filled with reluctance.

A gunshot suddenly rang out and made everyone freeze.

Lian Jing’s hand that was holding the gun trembled slightly. At the critical moment, just as Shen Nian was about to hit the dagger, he forced himself to calm down and shot, breaking the hand of the man who was gripping Shen Nian.

The bullet only missed Shen Nian’s head by a millimeter. There was no room for error.

But he still managed to stop Shen Nian. He frowned tightly, tightened his grip on the pistol, and ordered, “Shen Nian, run.”

In the few moments while the criminals were shocked by the gunshot, Shen Nian ran to Shen Yin. He used all his strength to help Shen Yin up and untied the ropes binding her hands.

Wu Zheng finally arrived with the narcotics police. The SWAT team that had filed in stood in front of Shen Yin like a human wall.

Lian Jing threw the gun to Wu Zheng and took a deep breath. Then, he picked up Shen Yin and strode out of the secret room. Shen Nian followed closely beside him. He was so scared that his entire body was trembling, and his legs almost gave way several times.

When Lian Meng saw her brother coming out, she hurried over with Zhong Xin and Li Zi. “How is it? Are you injured?”

Lian Jing did not say anything. He stuffed Shen Yin into the car, pressed down on the back of her head, and kissed her hard. The joy of regaining what he had lost almost drowned him and he had to express it somehow.

After a long time, his racing heart finally calmed down. He let go of Shen Yin and patted her back to calm her down.

Shen Yin gently leaned her head on his shoulder and whispered into his ear. Only then did she realize that her voice was so hoarse that she was almost unable to speak.

“Thank you for saving me,” Shen Yin said in a hoarse voice.

Lian Jing’s eyes softened. “I’ll always save you. You heartless girl.”

Shen Yin blushed. Thinking of Shen Nian, she hurriedly looked out of the car and saw an unfamiliar woman standing beside Shen Nian.

Was it her…

All the excitement instantly receded like a tide.

She felt frozen and she could not help but shiver. She struggled to get out of Lian Jing’s embrace. “It’s better for us to maintain a distance.”

“Maintain a distance again!” Lian Jing squeezed her shoulders, wishing he could crush her and eat her up. He wanted to see if she would still say anything about maintaining her distance.

The atmosphere had been perfect just now. He could not figure out why Shen Yin had suddenly turned cold again.

“Lian Jing.” Shen Yin looked up at him calmly. “I’m very grateful that you saved Shen Nian and I, but since you have someone else, you should focus on her. I won’t disturb your lives, but please return Nian Nian to me.”

In the future, Lian Jing would still have children with others, but she only had Shen Nian. Even if he had saved her, she could not give in when it came to Shen Nian’s custody.

She thought that Lian Jing would instantly release her and draw a line with her after realizing that she had found out about that woman’s existence. However, the man tightened his grip on her arm.

When she grew short of breath and wriggled uncomfortably in his arms, he lowered his head and whispered into her ear. He gritted his teeth and said, “Shen Yin, are you an idiot? Are you really ignorant of how I feel, or did you never intend to be serious about me?”

Shen Yin struggled to break free from him and said coldly, “I know you treat me very well, but I can’t share my man with others. Since you’ve already chosen someone else, please let me go and stop pestering me.”

Lian Jing had originally planned to angrily question his position in Shen Yin’s heart, but when he suddenly heard her say “my man”, his heart fluttered. There was a hint of joy in the corners of his eyes. “I’m your man? Huh?”

Shen Yin blushed and realized that she had said the wrong thing, but she did not regret it. Anyway, she had already made up her mind to give him out. No matter how insistent he was, he could not change her mind.

“Not anymore. I’ve already deleted your contact information.” She turned her head away and replied coldly.

Lian Jing paused for a moment. Then, he slowly lifted the hair at her temples. He subconsciously stroked her face. He smiled and said, “Then I can only trouble you to add my contact information back.”

She looked up and shook her head, her eyes filled with determination that was similar to Shen Nian’s. “You can leave the rest to the police. I’ll go meet Captain Wu first. President Lian, thank you for your help tonight. I hope we won’t have to meet again in the future!”

Lian Jing looked at her serious expression in amusement. He smiled and hugged her tightly again despite her resistance. He explained kindly, “Don’t be angry. The person who called you is my biological sister, not some other woman. I only have you. You heartless woman.”
