Accidentally Married to the Big Shot-Chapter 90 - He Fell

Chapter 90: Chapter 90 He Fell

However, the truck only stopped outside for a moment before it quickly drove away.

Su Meixi didn’t know what was happening outside, she only heard the sound of the vehicle gradually fading.

“The boss, they’re gone,” the lookout criminal said.

The criminals all heaved a sigh of relief, then the one guarding Su Meixi ordered her. “Hurry up and go save him.”

Su Meixi then stitched up the injured criminal again.

Just as she finished stitching, someone outside shouted. “Is Uncle Ti here?”

...

It was spoken in the local accent, but the voice was Gu Wei’s!

Su Meixi paused, wanting to shout loudly, “Gu Wei, I’m here!”

But she couldn’t.

Reason told her, she must not act rashly.

She could only pretend she hadn’t heard.

Gu Wei was calling for the shepherd’s house’s male owner.

The male owner knew someone outside was calling him, but he didn’t know who it was. With the criminals inside, he dared not respond for the moment.

He could only look at the criminals inside.

The lookout criminal questioned Gu Wei. “Who are you?”

“Hey, who are you? I haven’t seen you around here before,” Gu Wei purposely switched to poor Mandarin.

“I… am a relative of this family.”

“Where’s Uncle Ti then? He said just yesterday that he was bringing him a leg of lamb today, turns out there’s a guest at home,” Gu Wei said warmly as he barged inside.

“You can’t come in…”

The criminal hadn’t stopped him, and Gu Wei had already barged in.

Su Meixi glanced and saw Gu Wei dressed in the local’s attire, carrying a leg of lamb on his shoulder and holding a sheep’s head in his hand, indistinguishable from the locals.

But upon seeing everyone in the room, it seemed Gu Wei only then realized, dropping the lamb leg and head in fear.

“My god, what’s going on here? I didn’t see anything, Uncle Ti, I’m leaving!”

Gu Wei pretended to be frightened and acted as if he was going to leave, but he was stopped by the lookout criminal.

“Boss, what do we do with this guy?” the lookout asked.

The criminal boss glared fiercely at Gu Wei.

Before he could decide, Gu Wei trembled and asked. “Are you… are you hungry? How about I make you… roast lamb leg?”

These people had arrived at midnight and had only eaten the leftovers from the shepherd’s family, naturally they were hungry now.

Hearing Gu Wei’s suggestion, the leader nodded and then ordered the other two criminals. “Keep an eye on him, don’t let him run. If he dares to run, slaughter him!”

The shepherd’s family normally cooked outside in a pot and then brought it inside.

Gu Wei, taking the lamb leg and head, went outside with those two criminals. Only Gu Wei’s voice was heard saying, “This lamb needs to be blanched in boiling water first to remove the gaminess, add a handful of pepper, star anise, and bay leaves…”

But after a while, there were no more sounds, only the scent of lamb wafted in.

The criminal boss’s mouth watered, he shouted. “Is the lamb ready?”

Only Gu Wei’s voice replied, “Almost, almost.”

The leader sent another criminal out to check.

Gu Wei’s voice came through. “Do you want to eat too? Come, have a bowl, it’s delicious.”

The criminal didn’t return.

Gu Wei spoke loudly again. “I said, it smells good, right? Take your time and enjoy.”

Thinking that those few men were really eating outside, the leader angrily sent the last two men out to check.

But those who went out did not return.

There were still three criminals left inside.

The leader now felt something was wrong. Not just him, Su Meixi and the shepherd’s family realized something had happened outside. Those few men had likely been dealt with by Gu Wei.

“Quick, take care of that guy outside!” the leader commanded the two men.

But those two men dared not, as those who just went out had not returned.

The leader angrily shouted, then pointed a gun at the shepherd family’s male owner. “Tell me, who exactly is that person outside?”

The male owner, trembling, stammered. “I—I don’t know, I don’t recognize him!”

It must be the police or military then!

Otherwise, no one would have such skills.

The leader was about to grab someone to take as a hostage, and the nearest to him was Su Meixi.

Just like that, Su Meixi wasn’t surprisingly grabbed and had the gun’s muzzle pressed against her neck.

Su Meixi trembled all over, mentally forcing herself to stay calm!

At the door, Gu Wei came in, his gaze landing on Su Meixi.

Su Meixi also looked at him at that moment.

She didn’t know if he had any more tricks to get her out?

But survival is a human instinct, so she still eagerly looked at him, hoping he could save her.

“Don’t come any closer, or there will be casualties here, something you military men don’t want to see, right?” the leader fiercely said.

Gu Wei, raising his hands, feigned surrender.

He indeed didn’t want to see any casualties here.

Seeing Gu Wei’s weak spot, the leader told the remaining two, “Go, tie him up, we’ll handle him slowly later!”

The two criminals saw Gu Wei didn’t move, so they picked up a rope to tie him.

However, before they could get close, Gu Wei spun around and knocked them down.

The leader hadn’t reacted yet when Gu Wei had already rushed up to him, grabbing his gun-wielding wrist.

His movements were so fast that even Su Meixi couldn’t clearly see how he had moved; she only felt the force on her body loosen, and the next second she was in Gu Wei’s arms.

Next, he almost simultaneously embraced her and knocked the leader down.

His force was so immense that the criminals he knocked down could hardly rise, the leader especially passed out on the floor.

Su Meixi felt like she had been reborn after the ordeal; she couldn’t help but breathe deeply to prevent herself from fainting due to a racing heart.

Gu Wei pulled her aside and then bound the shepherd’s family, urging them to leave quickly.

Then he tightly tied up the remaining criminals inside and called Xiao Ding to come over.

After finishing these tasks, he walked over to Su Meixi and asked. “Are you okay?”

Su Meixi shook her head. “I’m fine.”

But she was still terrified.

She never expected to undergo such a thrilling event at the border; being a soldier is not easy, and neither is being a border police officer.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you back,” Gu Wei put his arm around her shoulder, and she didn’t refuse.

At the moment they stepped out the door, for some reason, she inexplicably looked back.

Just then, she suddenly saw the seriously injured criminal had woken up and was holding the gun that Gu Wei had knocked out of his hand.

“Gu…” Su Meixi instinctively stepped in front of Gu Wei.

However, Gu Wei moved faster than her, swiftly pulling her behind him.

Only the sound “Bang” was heard as the force of the impact sent Gu Wei tumbling backward.

Perhaps it was an instinctual reaction, but as he fell, he threw Su Meixi’s thermos at the criminal, hitting him and permanently silencing him.

However, at that moment, Gu Wei also lost consciousness, collapsing beside Su Meixi.
