“Little Fourth, are you scared?” Ye Fan asked, looking at Little Fourth Ye Jie who was taken as a hostage, with tears flickering in his eyes.

The child has suffered!

“Daddy, I’m not scared!” Ye Jie nodded and smiled faintly, her smile somehow more brilliant than ever before.

“Good child!”

Ye Fan was very relieved.

She’s just three years old, and yet so understanding.

Looking at Little Fourth Ye Jie having such confidence in herself, he felt really some…

It was his own fault as a father that his child was put in such a difficult situation.

It was all his fault.

“Daddy, it’s okay, don’t blame yourself!” Little Fourth smiled lightly, her smile very relaxed.

It was as if the hostage wasn’t her at all.

She knew her father was in pain.

Ye Jie tried her best to relax and appear unafraid, so as not to make her father sad.

Indeed.

But still, her father was very sad.

She could see it.

Now, only she and her father remained, of course, with the bad guy.

The others had all been rescued.

Being able to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with her father at such a time was her good fortune.

Her father was an amazing man.

He always had been!

Little Fourth Ye Jie looked at Ye Fan, her eyes filled with admiration.

“Silly child, it’s your dad who has put you in danger. It’s Dad’s fault for not protecting you. Jia Zhendong, you can let my child go now, I’ll come over,” Ye Fan said.

Now only the three of them remained.

This made him less hesitant.

Now, all he needed was to save his daughter Ye Jie.

“Sure, Ye Fan, come over here,” Jia Zhendong gestured with the gun at Little Fourth Ye Jie’s head as he spoke.

After all, it was just a child and of no real use to him.

He was simply using her to control Ye Fan.

Now that his purpose had been achieved, she was useless to him.

He could let her go.

It wouldn’t make any difference.

“Ye Fan, you’d better not try any tricks. I’ve got a gun and there’s nobody else around. What are you afraid of!” Ye Fan said.

He didn’t know where the sniper was positioned, or from where he could best take down Jia Zhendong.

All he could do was try to stall him.

“Go, go to your dad. Ye Fan, come here, and don’t play any tricks!” Jia Zhendong commanded with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

“Ye Jie, come here, I’ll go over there. Remember, walk straight out!” Ye Fan instructed Little Fourth Ye Jie.

At this moment, Little Fourth Ye Jie was very obedient. She knew the situation was serious and dangerous, and that all she had to do was follow her father’s instructions.

She tried her best not to hold her father back or hinder him.

Ye Jie walked towards where Ye Fan was directing.

And as Ye Fan walked towards Ye Jie, just as they brushed past each other, the sniper found a good vantage point and fired, shooting at Jia Zhendong.

At that moment, Jia Zhendong realized he had been tricked and immediately fired several shots at Ye Fan and Ye Jie.

“Bang, bang, bang”

The sound of gunfire erupted…

It happened too fast!

Ye Fan couldn’t react in time, and by the time he did, the gunfire was already upon him.

Just then, the pendant that had been on Ye Jie’s neck for three years suddenly flashed a blinding white light, and in that instant, Ye Fan rushed to embrace Ye Jie, shielding her with his body.

“Crack,” the pendant around her neck shattered into pieces, falling to the ground.

As the white light faded, Ye Jie was held tightly in Ye Fan’s arms.

“You…”

“Boom,” a sound, and Jia Zhendong’s body fell to the ground, his head blown apart by a gunshot.

Bright red blood stained the area vast.

“Don’t look, be good!” Ye Fan held Ye Jie close, shielding her from the sight.

After all, she was still young and might have nightmares after witnessing such a scene.

After all, such a bloody scene was not something a child should see.

Even a normal adult would find it shockingly gruesome.

Soon, a group of police officers rushed in.

“Are you alright?” The team leader approached Ye Fan to ask.

“We’re fine. The child is shocked, and I’m going to take her to the hospital for a check-up now, and then go see my wife, who’s still in the hospital!” Saying this, Ye Fan took Ye Jie and left.

A crowd watched the pair depart.

As Ye Fan walked outside, he thought about what had just happened.

He had seen a white light, then felt as though both he and Ye Jie were enveloped by it, and Jia Zhendong’s gun hadn’t hit them. He had heard the sound of jade shattering.

The jade pendant broke!

Ye Fan glanced sideways and saw that the pendant on Ye Jie’s neck was gone.

Yes, it had broken just moments before.

That jade pendant had saved their lives.

The pendant had been a reward from the System when the children were still young, one for each of them, totaling four protective amulets.

Just now, that pendant sensed that Little Fourth was in life-threatening danger and transformed into a protective shield, safeguarding the two of them before vanishing.

It must have been that the energy within the pendant was depleted, causing it to shatter all at once.

That pendant, which had been with them for three years, had saved them just now, and they were truly indebted to it.

Otherwise, the consequences would have been severe!

Fortunately, I have the System!

Once again, the System had saved both myself and my child.

It was a close call, indeed.

Ye Fan, holding Ye Jie’s hand, felt a sense of relief as if they had just survived a disaster.

“Daddy, my pendant just broke, and also, I felt it protected us just now!” Little Fourth Ye Jie said.

She remembered that these pendants were given to each of them by their father.

Of course, their mother had told them about it.

It was mentioned that their father had worked hard to obtain them and had given one to each of them to wear as they grew up. Now that hers was gone, she felt a sense of unwillingness to let it go.

After all, their names were engraved on those pendants.

They were truly unique in the world.

Gone, just like that.

Little Fourth Ye Jie felt a sense of grievance in her heart.

This was a gift from her father since she was born, and now it was just gone.

Of course, she realized that the pendant had saved her and her father just now, but she still felt reluctant to part with it.

Alas.

It was all that bad person’s doing!

Now, finally, the trouble had been resolved.

That’s great!

“Yes, its mission completed, it shattered on its own,” Ye Fan said.

With Little Fourth Ye Jie’s pendant broken, there would be nothing to protect her in the future, which made Ye Fan worried.

He thought that he must work hard to earn more points to exchange for many things, especially those that could protect his children.

“Daddy, I’m a little sad about the jade pendant!” Ye Jie said.

After all, she had been wearing it for three years.

Except when taking a bath, she would never take it off.

She had grown accustomed to it over time.

Now it was gone, and she felt unused to its absence.

Moreover, even though she no longer had it, her three older sisters still did, which made her feel envious and a bit jealous.

What to do!

She still wanted one!

“It’s okay, after a while, Daddy will get you another one,” Ye Fan said.

Indeed, if she had one, he would feel more at ease as well.

‘Ding dong, congratulations to the host for saving your children, awarded 3000 points as a special reward!’

The System’s belated voice did not cheer up Ye Fan.

After all, these were points earned at the expense of his children’s safety.

How could he possibly feel happy?

Without them, nothing could be more important than his children’s safety.

He would rather not have these points than to let his children face such peril,

They were still so young, and he worried about the long-term impact on them.

“Daddy, you’re finally out!”

“Daddy, Little Fourth Sister, it’s good that you’re alright!”

‘We were so scared, we wanted to come in, but were stopped from entering. Seeing that you’re both safe, we can now breathe easy!’

“Wuwuwu, Daddy!”

“You’re both safe; that’s great1!”

The eldest, second, and third, upon seeing their father Ye Fan and Little Fourth Sister Ye Jie emerge, rushed forward and burst into wails, hugging them tightly.

They had been truly frightened just now.

The thought of their father and sister agreeing to stay behind alone to save them was far too dangerous.

They felt utterly useless!

They had caused trouble for their father and sister!

“Daddy, Little Fourth Sister, it’s because we weren’t strong enough that you had to protect us.”

“Wuwuwu, yes!”

“Little Fourth Sister, you are really brave!”

The children hugged Ye Fan and Ye Jie and immediately burst into tears.

“Alright, alright, stop crying. We should go see your mom. She fainted from the shock when she heard the news about you all. She’s pregnant, after all. Ah, let’s go see mom together!” Ye Fan said.

He was also extremely worried inside.

He didn’t know how his wife was doing.

Whether she had woken up or not.

Oh.

That silly girl must have been worried sick.

“Mhm mhm, let’s go see Mom!”

“Right, Mom must be so worried.”

“Mom’s pregnant, we need to hurry!”

The children immediately dried their tears and spoke up.

“Master!” Bai Qi said as he nodded towards Ye Fan.

The group got into the car and headed for the hospital.

In the car, Ye Fan’s brow furrowed deeply.
