Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Getting into the s.h.i.+p from its side would be the safest option for Ye Yuwei. That was also the most discreet way in, and the Mo Fei could protect Ye Yuwei the entire way there.
The only challenge for Ye Yuwei to get there was that she would have to traverse a rope crossing.
The distance between them and the s.h.i.+p was only around 10 meters, but it looked a lot farther when Ye Yuwei had to use a rope to get there.
Seeing Wen Chenghao and Wen Lan was boarding the helicopter, Ye Yuwei started monkey climbing the rope without a second thought. Beneath her was the roaring sea, and she had to close her eyes and keep going before she got too scared to continue.
Ye Yuwei refused to give up even when she her hands started to burn.
Mo Fei pulled the rope close to the deck as Ye Yuwei crossed it to make sure that Ye Yuwei didn’t get spotted.
Ye Yuwei sped up and signaled Mo Fei when she reached the other end of the rope. It was lucky that Gu Juexi had put her under the care of Mo Fei, because Gu Juexi would never have agreed to let her do what she just did.
Gu Juexi wouldn’t have had faith in her no matter how confident she was of her plan.
The first thing that Ye Yuwei saw when she climbed onto the s.h.i.+p was Wen Chenghao helping a badly injured Wen Lan board the helicopter. Ye Yuwei scoffed at how loving Wen Chenghao was.
Ye Yuwei picked up an empty gun on the floor quietly. She sneaked towards the helicopter after Wen Chenghao and Wen Lan had boarded it and tossed the mini bomb under one of the seats.
“Don’t move,” Ye Yuwei ordered, pointing the gun at one of Wen Chenghao’s men. Her heart was pounding but she tried her best to hide her fear.
Wen Chenghao looked back and saw Ye Yuwei but was not bothered by her presence.
The man squinted at Ye Yuwei. Just as he was about to disarm her, Ye Yuwei made a decision. Instead of backing off like the man expected, Ye Yuwei dashed towards Wen Lan and held her hostage.
“What are you doing?” Wen Chenghao shrieked, his face draining of blood.
“How loving. You were quite calm when my mother was threatened just now,” Ye Yuwei sneered, feeling sorry for Wen Jie.
“What are you trying to do, Ye Yuwei?” Wen Lan asked, glancing at the gun pointed at her head. She looked at her father pleadingly.
“Don’t hurt my daughter, what do you want?” Wen Chenghao asked anxiously, finally acting like a father.
Ye Yuwei was furious. He didn’t care about his other daughter simply because he didn’t love her mother, and that att.i.tude disgusted her.
“I know you planted bombs on the s.h.i.+p. Give me the detonator and I will let her go,” said Ye Yuwei, acting like she only came for the detonator because there were bombs on the s.h.i.+p.
Wen Chenghao squinted and stayed still, and Ye Yuwei began to grip Wen Lan harder. “Fine, fine, I will give it to you,” said Wen Chenghao quickly.
Ye Yuwei relaxed her grip and watched him take out the detonator from his pocket. What Ye Yuwei didn’t see was Wen Chenghao’s vicious expression when he lowered his head.
“Throw it out,” said Ye Yuwei, still holding Wen Lan hostage. She looked at Wen Chenghao throwing the detonator out of the helicopter then gestured at the man with her chin. “Make him go into the c.o.c.kpit and leave this place.”
Ye Yuwei continued to hold Wen Lan hostage and went to the exit after the man went inside the c.o.c.kpit, then jumped off the helicopter after pus.h.i.+ng Wen Lan to Wen Chenghao.
