The Time-Limited Love and Marriage
Chapter 393
CHAPTER 393: CHAPTER 393
Before Si Lin arrived at the scene, the mercenaries from Xiya had already joined the battle.
They fought shoulder to shoulder with Jiang Moxi, taking out another group of enemies.
But this time, Orion had come fully prepared, determined to take Jiang Moxi’s head even if it meant using the human wave tactic!
As soon as Jiang Moxi and the others were forced to expend all their bullets, that would be the moment they perished.
Just then, Wen You and his team also arrived.
Wen You’s arrival greatly boosted the morale of the other brothers in Orion, and their combat spirit soared.
"Dead Ghost, come and get your death!"
Wen You now only wanted to vent his personal grievances with Dead Ghost.
Wen You fired continuously, his marksmanship being much more accurate than that of other mercenaries.
Jiang Moxi could only roll on the ground amid the barrage of gunfire, as long as she wasn’t hit in the vital areas, it was fine.
A hail of bullets later, Jiang Moxi’s arms, shoulders, and abdomen were all hit.
The grey sports shirt Si Lin had prepared for her was almost completely dyed red with blood.
This was considered a stroke of luck amidst misfortune; she hadn’t been hit in any vital spots.
But the mercenaries protecting her weren’t so fortunate.
Some were shot in the forehead, some in the heart...
They were all wiped out.
Even though mercenaries worked for money, their lives were still lives!
Jiang Moxi’s rage was completely ignited, and she went berserk!
The results of her rampage were terrifying; when everyone else thought they had victory in their grasp, she mustered all her strength and ran quickly.
While dodging the incoming bullets, she held two guns in her hands, twelve bullets, and took out twelve men from Orion in one wave, except for Wen You.
Of course, Wen You was also a target in Jiang Moxi’s killing spree just now.
But Wen You was very cunning, and he even pulled Bai Ju in front of him to shield himself from the bullets.
So Bai Ju died, and Wen You continued to live on.
Bai Ju probably couldn’t believe until his death that he had become Wen You’s scapegoat.
When Bai Ju fell with eyes full of shock, Jiang Moxi’s gun had just run out of bullets, and she could only stop to reload.
Wen You had one last bullet left in his gun.
Wen You grinned, his face filled with irrepressible twisted pleasure.
He raised his gun at Jiang Moxi, aiming right at her forehead.
Jiang Moxi seemed to instantly realize what Wen You was about to do, and she suddenly lifted her head to stare at the dark muzzle of Wen You’s gun.
The fight had reached this moment, and she was truly very, very tired.
She didn’t know how many bullets she had taken, and her blood was almost drained.
The excessive blood loss halved her physical strength, causing dizziness and a reduction in her will to survive.
Fu Youhan...
She missed him so much.
Even if Fu Youhan left her alone at the wedding for Wen You, it seemed like her heart still only had room for him.
But Jiang Moxi knew that she probably would never have the chance to see Fu Youhan again in this lifetime.
Fu Youhan, years from now, when you have a wife and children around you, will you remember the grand wedding you owe me, a beautiful future...
As Wen You was about to shoot, Jiang Moxi despairingly closed her eyes, and hot tears streamed down her face.
"Dead Ghost, go meet God. From now on, I am you!"
Wen You’s mouth split into a wide grin, and he pulled the trigger with unfettered melancholy...

Fu Youhan was still tracking Wen You’s whereabouts.
But the car ahead kept circling around the city center, showing no signs of stopping.
Fu Youhan thought about intercepting that car, but it was filled with mercenaries. To rashly stop them in a bustling urban area might completely enrage them, leading to innocent casualties.
But not stopping them and just letting them go around in circles clearly wasn’t a good solution either.
Moreover, Jiang Moxi must still be angry, and Fu Youhan was eager to settle things quickly to return to her side and properly soothe her.
But at this moment, Fu Youhan’s anxious heart suddenly felt an inexplicable panic.
It was as if something important in his life was being rapidly stripped away.
Fu Youhan took out his phone, intending to call Jiang Moxi to confirm that she was safe and sound, when his phone preemptively rang.
Fu Youhan glanced at the caller ID; it wasn’t Jiang Moxi or Ling Ye, just a call from Chi Jing.
So, it probably wasn’t anything concerning Jiang Moxi.
After calming himself slightly, Fu Youhan answered the call.
And in the instant he picked up, Chi Jing urgently told him, "Third Young Master, there’s trouble. A massive casualty incident occurred at the ferry; most of them died from a single gunshot, roughly estimated to be at least two hundred people."
"What?!" Fu Youhan’s heart sank violently.
It was true that a large number of mercenaries from Orion had flooded into Yan City yesterday, but their target was supposed to be Wen You.
And now, with Wen You still in the car ahead, how could there suddenly be massive casualties?
"Who are the deceased?" Fu Youhan asked again.
"Most of them have the distinct tattoos of the Orion Mercenary Corps on their bodies; it is certain they are all mercenaries from Orion!"
Chi Jing’s report startled Fu Youhan: "Damn! We might have been tricked!"
Orion making a feint to the east while attacking the west, pretending to kidnap Wen You to lure him, Fu Youhan, away - their real target must be someone else.
Fu Youhan hurriedly picked up the walkie-talkie, ordering the vehicles following him, "Close in at full speed! Force the car in front to stop; shoot to kill if necessary."
After giving the orders, Fu Youhan and his subordinates floored the accelerator, forcing the car to stop on the side of the road.
The driver was not inclined to comply readily and even pulled out a gun at one point.
Fu Youhan, wanting to minimize harm, also fired his gun immediately.
Soon, the driver collapsed to the sound of the gunshot.
Fu Youhan got out of the car, and his subordinates were ready, forcefully opening the rear door of that vehicle.
They all thought Wen You must have been kidnapped and expected a fierce battle.
But they found the backseat of the car to be completely empty.
At that moment, everyone on the scene was stunned.
"What’s going on? We clearly saw them take Wen You into this car."
"Yeah, could they have thrown Wen You out halfway through?"
"That’s impossible! Except for the few seconds our view was blocked by a large truck, our eyes never left this car..."
But it was this remark that reminded Fu Youhan.
At this moment, the handsome features on his face were not as arrogantly cold as usual; anger could be seen between his brows, along with unruliness and sharpness.
"No, there were two identical cars. Right at the intersection where the large truck obstructed the view, the car carrying Wen You turned into a side street, and this one switched places with it."
However, Fu Youhan’s analysis made the others feel somewhat incredulous.
"They went to such great lengths to switch Wen You, what exactly are they trying to do?"
"If they just wanted to kill her, it shouldn’t require such a complicated setup."
Another subordinate said, "I always feel that Orion capturing Wen You this time went too smoothly. If Wen You is really the notorious Dead Ghost as the rumors say, she should have resisted when Orion’s people went to capture her!"
Hearing this, Fu Youhan suddenly grabbed the arm of the subordinate, "Are you saying that Wen You didn’t resist?"
At the time, Fu Youhan had been busy talking to Jiang Moxi, and hadn’t watched how Wen You was taken away.
Now the more he heard, the more doubts he had.
"Wen You just cursed and fought with Orion’s people for a few exchanges; she never used her best weapon, the gun, and was just taken away."
Fu Youhan’s expression turned instantly frosty, his gaze chilling.
Because at this moment, he suddenly began to doubt Wen You’s identity!
She might not be Dead Ghost, and she might even be in cahoots with Orion!
But his mind was in chaos, with some thoughts flashing by that he hadn’t been able to grasp.
And at this moment, Fu Youhan received another call from Chi Jing at the ferry.
"Third Young Master, we found Wen You’s body among those corpses at the ferry..."
