When Yun Shishi stood up and turned around, she saw that Little Yichen was gradually losing his strength. The fatigue on his face was apparent.
“Yichen!” In her anxiety, she was on the verge of dashing over when she suddenly heard rumbling footsteps from the deck nearby. It was as if a large group of people was running towards her!
Everyone nervously stopped what they were doing and looked in the direction of the rumbling. They saw Youyou running to the front with a dense crowd behind him. He shouted at the top of his voice, “Mommy, quickly release the lifeboat! Hurry!”
When Little Yichen heard this, he hurried over to help with the lifeboat.
She finally understood what Youyou was up to.
He must have been worried that Little Yichen would not be able to hold up against these men, so he had run to the banquet hall and told the bewildered guests that they could leave in a lifeboat.
These people were anxious to escape, so they followed Youyou.
The footsteps from the crowd caused the entire deck to shake.
And now, the situation was getting more chaotic.
In addition, no one stood out to give orders. Everyone was selfishly trying to survive, hoping to get lucky. Thus, they did not care about what they had to do to win. This added to the chaos.
Yun Shishi also tried her best to find the mechanism, but no matter how fast she moved, she could not stop those crazy people.
Very quickly, the crowd closed in, and the sea of people swarmed around Youyou and Little Yichen, obscuring them!
Gritting her teeth, Yun Shishi turned around and rushed into the crowd. Seeing that Little Yichen had been pushed to the ground, she was worried that he would be injured. Without thinking, she threw herself on top of him and used her body to shield him from being trampled by the crowd.
Seeing Yun Shishi protecting Little Yichen, Youyou’s heart ached for her. He threw himself on her back, clinging on to her tightly and protected her from the crowd, refusing to let go!
Creak—
Because the crowd had all rushed towards the bow of the ship, most of the weight was now centered on this area. In an instant, the cruise ship tilted in a certain direction, causing the ship to crack in the middle!
Many people were caught off guard by this tilting, and fell into the sea. Some of them hit their heads hard against the railing and fell into the sea, causing blood to splatter everywhere.
Yun Shishi hugged Mu Yichen tightly while Youyou clung onto her. The mother-and-sons trio curled up in a corner, relying on Yun Shishi alone to cling tightly to the railing and keep them in balance.
At this moment, the sound of propellers suddenly came from overhead.
Da da da—
The dark night sky was instantly illuminated by the light from the helicopter. In an instant, it was as bright as day.
Everyone looked towards the sky.
The door of the helicopter opened and a ladder was thrown down. A few heavily armed mercenaries jumped off the ladder and landed on the deck. They raised their submachine guns.
The muzzle flashed as shots rang out.
In the blink of an eye, a bloody path was formed.
Yun Shishi did not know where these mercenaries came from. Seeing that they had killed so many people, she thought that they were Dietris’ men. She immediately tightened her arms around Little Yichen as her eyes filled with fear.
However, when Youyou saw the logo on their uniforms, a calm smile appeared on his face. He suddenly stood up and started to walk towards them.
She tugged at him nervously. “Youyou, what… what are you doing?”
“Mommy, don’t be afraid.”
Youyou smiled and reassured her gently. “It’s alright now. They’re all my subordinates.”
What…
Yun Shishi was stunned. She looked at the row of soldiers behind Youyou and her mind went blank.
