Chapter 1700: Chapter 1670: Won’t Live Much Longer
"The shot missed." Fengye Wuyin’s eyes flickered as he held the shard aimed at her heart from behind, yet when he fired, the direction was still slightly off.
Why show mercy? He didn’t want to dwell on the reason. He just did it, so be it.
Lino touched his nose. Even he sometimes misfired: "According to the tracker, she was taken to the Aus Empire. Do we need to find someone to assassinate her?"
"No need." Fengye Wuyin shook his head. Now that she has fallen into the hands of the Aus Empire, she probably won’t live long.
"Stop dilly-dallying, let’s go, return to the country."
...
Jun Yiyi was still doing quite well.
Since Ji Lingkong left, two days had passed without him appearing.
However, her environment had improved. Initially, she was only allowed to move around in the room. Later, it was relaxed to allow her to walk around the villa. But she was well aware that the villa was as tightly guarded as a cage, making escape impossible. That’s why he felt assured to let her roam freely.
These past few days, the man hadn’t come to interrogate her, for reasons unknown.
Jun Yiyi actually hoped he would never come. Because his arrival would mean the end of her good days. She told herself she had confessed everything, yet he still suspected her.
However, Jun Yiyi also understood that her statements were indeed suspicious, offering no useful clues, and her identity was too special.
Headache, oh, how should she handle this? His patience was surely finite; he wouldn’t let her be so comfortable for long.
With nothing to do, Jun Yiyi could only watch TV. Turning on the 3D projection TV, the massive virtual screen appeared on the wall, showing life-sized figures and images, creating an immersive experience.
It was broadcast from Aus Empire’s largest TV station, showing important news.
On the screen appeared a news conference from the Aus Empire’s Councilman’s mansion. After a female spokesperson spoke, a dignified and imposing figure walked onto the stage, appearing solemnly in the frame. It was the ruler of the Aus Empire, His Excellency the Grand Councilman.
His words were powerful, concise, and sharp, filled with the profound authority of a mighty statesman. His demeanor displayed the grandeur of a great nation, brimming with confidence and power, intimidating and commanding!
However, when Jun Yiyi heard what he said, her face changed, her heart thumped wildly.
Because the Grand Councilman declared that he would not forgive anyone involved in the assassination incident at the Yalan Country’s charity banquet.
His tone was incredibly firm. Though adept at controlling his expression as a politician, the anger and ruthlessness seeped through his voice.
Jun Yiyi was immediately alarmed. The Grand Councilman must be furious about this matter, unable to suppress his anger even before the media.
It’s over. She had long heard of the deep, ocean-like affection the Grand Councilman had for the Councilman’s wife, greatly loving his wife. Now that his beloved wife had been targeted for assassination, he certainly wouldn’t swallow this grievance.
He vowed to hold accountable anyone involved in the incident. Jun Yiyi’s face whitened even more. She was also one of the participants, even the one who invited the Councilman’s wife to the stage. If the Grand Councilman learned of her existence, he might vent his anger on her.
Tear her to shreds.
The more Jun Yiyi thought about it, the colder she felt. The country’s highest ruler was the Grand Councilman. If he wanted to kill her, he wouldn’t need anyone’s consent. Could this man named Ling Kong protect her?
She continued watching a series of news reports, her eyes widening with each report, until finally she gasped, filled with a sense of foreboding.
