Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

In a thatched hut hidden in a tropical rainforest in Africa, a man had his head lowered in the dim light. His muscular upper body was bare, and his muscles were covered in a layer of sweat that expanded with the frequency of his breathing.

There was a bandaged wound on his chest that was bleeding. The dark red color looked eerie in the dark environment.

Ugh. The man was in pain and couldnt help but let out a whimper. Then, he gritted his teeth and endured it.

The other person placed the tray filled with hemostatic medicine beside the man and took out scissors to cut the bandage on the mans body.

Young Master, Ill apply medicine for you now. Bear with me, another person said.

The man let out a long sigh of relief and felt as if the pain had lessened. Its okay.

As the man applied medicine, he diverted the mans attention with another topic. Young Master, the weather here is hot and humid, and the wounds on your body have been festering. You really cant stay here any longer.

The man sneered. Heh, now that a group of people are searching for us outside, how can you be sure that the s.h.i.+ family found us first?

The man was s.h.i.+ Xiao. He had been trapped in this village for more than a month. He was injured, and because of the climate, his wound had never been able to scab over, so he didnt even have the chance to escape.

Even though he had been in contact with the s.h.i.+ family, in this dense tropical rainforest, the signal was bad, and GPS was inaccurate. He also had to be constantly on guard against the enemys pursuit, so his situation was very stressful.

When the wound was finally bandaged, s.h.i.+ Xiao took two deep breaths to ease the pain. Then, he said to the person who bandaged him, Zhao Cheng, tell Zhao Mian that we must protect the Yuan Family no matter what. Nothing can happen to Yushu Buyi.

Zhao Cheng was puzzled and asked, But Young Master, didnt you already plan to divorce Madam after you returned? Why are you helping her at this time? The s.h.i.+ family isnt in a very optimistic situation now.

s.h.i.+ Xiaos short hair was already drenched in sweat, which dripped onto the straw mat.

He took a deep breath before saying, Phew Im not helping her, but myself. Those people want to use her to target the s.h.i.+ family. I definitely wont let them succeed. Moreover, Yuan Shu and I arent divorced yet, so the two of us are in the same boat. At least for now, nothing can happen to the Yuan family.

Zhao Cheng was still worried and said worriedly, But Im afraid the Yuan family will cause even more trouble. With Madams ability, she wont be able to deal with Xu Lang at all. We can help her this time, but theres no guarantee that she wont fall for it next time.

Zhao Chengs impression of Yuan Shu was still the same as when she and s.h.i.+ Xiao first got married. She didnt have the grace of a n.o.ble lady at all. She was simply vulgar and low-cla.s.s.

Zhao Cheng didnt understand how such a person was worthy of his young master. He looked down on Yuan Shu from the bottom of his heart, so he added, I really hope that she wont let the s.h.i.+ family fall into greater trouble when youre not around!

At the thought of that vulgar and moody woman, s.h.i.+ Xiao felt disgusted and frustrated.

s.h.i.+ Xiao said impatiently, Let her cause as much trouble as she wants. With Zhao Mian watching over the company, there shouldnt be a big problem. Contact Zhao Mian first and tell her what happened. Well talk about the rest later.

Zhao Cheng agreed and was about to pick up his phone to look for the signal outside when he suddenly heard a commotion at the door.

Zhao Cheng had been a bodyguard for many years and had been with s.h.i.+ Xiao since he started working, so his loyalty and vigilance were unquestionable.

After he took out a military knife from the pocket of his military pants, he turned his fingers nimbly, and the blade was revealed. He drew a beautiful arc in the air before holding it in his hand tightly.

Who is it?

Zhao Cheng had already rushed to the door. The moment he opened the door, he extended his left hand and pressed the blade against the delicate neck of the person at the door.

The tray in that persons hand fell with a crisp shattering sound..
