One Birth Two Treasures: The Billionaire's Sweet Love Novel - Chapter 440
Chapter 440: Assassination 3
The man staggered a few steps backward from the attack. Seeing a chance arise, Yichen jumped at him like a nimble baby leopard and tried to wrestle the Desert Eagle from his grasp!
The man was apparently a professional killer who had undergone rigorous training, for his movements were dexterous as well. Swiftly raising his leg, he delivered a kick to Yichen’s chest. The attack caught Yichen by surprise; it hit him squarely on the chest, and he fell to the ground.
Yun Shishi exclaimed from witnessing this scene.
The man climbed up to his feet and quickly raised his arm. Cocking the gun, he pointed it at Yichen.
BANG!
By the time the gunshot, which was moderated by a suppressor, rang about, Yichen had already rolled to the side with his toy panda.
The man pointed the gun anew at him and fired consecutive shots!
Bang, bang, bang!
The smell of gunpowder quickly filled the enclosed space.
Yichen skillfully darted between the shots, only receiving a few grazes with the stuffed toy acting as his shield. Still, when he saw what had become of the toy panda, with many holes littering its body, which was made of cotton—
This was a present he had won for Youyou, but he had…
Unable to contain his rage, his eyes slightly blazed as a dagger swiftly slid out from his sleeve!
Whenever he left the house, he always made sure to bring a weapon with him for self-defense!
Security was, needless to say, tight within Fairy Tale Valley, but this was only when it involved adults.
Right now, this dagger became handy. He swiftly flung the dagger to the man, and the latter attempted to dodge it, but the space within the haunted house was slightly confined, so it still managed to graze past his neck.
The man accidentally hit a cabinet filled with props as he was evading, and with a loud thud, it toppled over!
Yichen took this chance that the man was distracted to run over to the mother-son pair. Grabbing Youyou’s hand at once, he told her, “Run! You two are his targets!”
She turned pale from shock. She had no time to think of anything and why this child was here; she just followed Yichen and ran.
As they reached a fork in the road, Yichen pulled Youyou toward the route on the right. When the latter glanced backward, he did not know when it had happened, but his mother was nowhere to be seen!
She probably got separated from them because of their obscure surroundings!
“Mommy…” Youyou was distraught and wanted to retrace their steps to find her.
Yichen firmly gripped his arm. “Don’t go!”
“LET GO! I want to find my mommy!” In a state of anxiety, Youyou shook off his hand. Worried for his mother’s safety, he had no time to concern himself with anything else!
Yichen stomped his feet furiously and went after him. However, from around the corner on their way back, they collided with the man pursuing them.
Youyou jumped. At this moment, Yichen became sure of his suspicion…
This man’s target was his twin!
Yichen grabbed hold of Yun Tianyou’s arm at once and took to his heels. As they ran, he said, “Don’t worry; your mom will be fine. You are his target. He’s here to kill you! Understand?”
Youyou’s eyes widened in horror. This was somewhat unbelievable to him.
The man’s footsteps closed in on them from behind. Yichen looked over his shoulder nervously, only to see the man lift his wrist. He aimed at Youyou’s vest and was about to shoot!
Knowing the risk, Yichen tackled his twin to the ground.
Bang! The bullet sliced through the air and narrowly flew past the ends of his hair before shattering a glass apparatus on a cabinet at the side.
