The Devil who devoured Snow White

Chapter 312 Be safe





312 Be safe

Tears welled up on the side of Lu Mengjie's eyes as she kissed her husband back. Her wholeness was filled with relief now that she had him by her side.

By the time Yong Liwei pulled away from the passionate kiss they shared, they were both panting. He stared intensely into her eyes as he reached out and gently wiped her tears with his thumb.

"I'm sorry I made you wait," he whispered as he rested his forehead against hers.

She pouted and lightly punched his chest as she glared at him. "You're no longer my husband. You signed those divorce papers, remember?"

"Ah..." He chuckled a bit. "Then I should just propose and marry you again," he replied, the matter of fact.

A faint blush appeared on Lu Mengjie's checks. She never thought of such a thing back then but now that he mentioned it, she kind of understood why he ended up agreeing on divorcing her when Cian asked for one. Typical Yong Liwei. He would rather save her than save their marriage. "We don't have time. We should go before others will notice. We need to get you out of here." He grabbed her hand and was about to drag her deeper into the forest. Yong Liwei halted when he noticed that she wouldn't budge.

"How about Zhizhu?" The reason why she was willing to behave and didn't try to escape was all because of Spider. As long as Cian was holding him hostage, her conscience wouldn't allow her to leave him.

"Cecil will take care of him. Bai Jingye and his team will be attacking the place to save any minute now. We need to get you as far as possible from Cian and his men."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Virus will be notified instantly by their movements. We need to do something to shut him down. I can't just leave yet, Liwei!" She insisted. She knew that with Virus on Cian's side, Bai Jingye's surprise attack wouldn't be a surprise anymore.

Yong Liwei sighed. He released her hand but with the cuffs around their wrist, he couldn't walk away from her. "Very well. Let's delay the plan."

Ile took out his phone and notified his men, including Bai Jingye.

"Your brother knew you well" He took out a flashdrive from his pocket. "He said that if you decide to attack Cian's Al security from the inside, this should help."

"Qinqing..." A small smile appeared on her lips as she looked at the flashdrive.

"He said that he upgraded Kuro's defense system."

Lu Mengjie was relieved to hear his words. She thought that Kuro would end up being deleted once Virus overtook his system but it seemed like his main body was shut off in time.

"Thank you, Liwei." She leaned forward and hugged him, longingly.

Meanwhile, back in the car where Bai Jingye was waiting for Yong Liwei's signal to attack, instead, he received a message from the other guy that their plans had to wait until nightfall. Sighing, he knew that something must have happened on his side.

Just as he was about to reply, his phone screen changed when someone called him. Tian Ruyi's name was written on the caller ID.

Bai Jingye had already told her about what happened since he trusted her. She just probably wanted to check on him since she knew that they had to put their plans into action that day. I le tapped the screen, answering the call before he placed his phone against his ear.

"Ruyi, you shouldn't call me right now," he said.

"I'm sorry, Jingye. It's just... I can't help but have a bad feeling. Can't you just let Yong Liwei take care of saving Mengmeng? He should have enough men, right? Why does it have to be you?"

Ever since Bai Jingye told Tian Ruyi that he was going to help Yong Liwei with the plan, she instantly disagreed with him. She knew that it was dangerous so she tried to stop him but Bai Jingye didn't listen.

"You're just overthinking, Ruyi."

"I may be, but what if things won't go according to what was planned? Lives could be lost!" Tian Ruyi exclaimed from the other side. She may be worried about Lu Mengjie's situation but she cared most for Bai Jingye. If she had to choose between the two of them, she would not hesitate in choosing her childhood best friend.

"Lives could be lost? What do you mean, Xiao Ruyi?" Another man's voice was heard in Tian Ruyi's background. It sounded familiar to Bai Jingye.

"You... what are you doing here?" She sounded so surprised.

"I just wanted to visit you, of course. But you look like you're talking about something important with someone. I apologize for disturbing you!"

Bai Jingye furrowed his brows upon realizing who that man could be. "Ruyi, are you talking with Si Guanlin, right now?"

"I'll call you later. Be safe, Jingye. With that, she ended the call.

Bai Jingye lowered the phone and stared at the screen. He clenched his phone tight as he wondered why Si Guanlin approached Tian Ruyi? Why did it seem like they knew each other? Tian Ruyi never mentioned Si Guanlin's name after she had successfully escaped when Bai Keran captured her. He couldn't help but have a bad feeling inside. He needed to warn her about not getting close to that guy especially when it was clear that he was the enemy.

He tried to dial Tian Ruyi's contact but the call ended after it rang for a few seconds. This time, he was torn on what to do. He needed to be on standby just in case that Yong Liwei would give the signal to attack. He didn't have enough time to come back if he was to leave now.

Tian Ruyi or Lu Mengjie. He knew that he had to choose. Lu Mengjie had someone who could protect her right at that moment while Tian Ruyi didn't have anyone.

"Eleven. You'll stay here and wait for Yong Liwei's signal. I have somewhere I need to go to."
