Chapter 37 - 37 0037 Suddenly Encountering an Assassin

?37: Chapter 0037: Suddenly Encountering an Assassin 37: Chapter 0037: Suddenly Encountering an Assassin In everyone’s life, there are things that are destined to be ours, and some things we are destined to abandon with a hardened heart.

We cannot have everything, so we can only choose to keep what is most precious to us, but Su Guyan had lost what was most precious to her.

Su Guyan took a deep breath, and looked at Ye Xunhuan’s sharply defined profile and asked, “Where have you been all these years, what have you been doing?”

“Abroad!” Ye Xunhuan said cryptically.

“You went abroad?” Su Guyan asked, somewhat surprised.

Ye Xunhuan nodded.

Seeing him nod, Su Guyan suddenly realized why she had never been able to find Ye Xunhuan, nor had she heard any news of him—he had gone abroad, no wonder she hadn’t found anything.

“That makes sense, with your high school grades, you indeed should have gone abroad for further studies.”

A complex smile slowly appeared on the corner of Ye Xunhuan’s mouth.

He had gone abroad, but had he ever really pursued further studies?

If practicing assassination counted as further education, then Ye Xunhuan had indeed received it.

Just then, a waiter approached the two of them.

“Sir, miss, your tea!”

As he spoke, the waiter was about to pour tea for Su Guyan.

“We didn’t order tea!” Su Guyan’s brows creased slightly, and she spoke with some displeasure.

Now was the time she was with Ye Xunhuan.

She hated being disturbed most during such times.

Otherwise, why would she have sent away all her secretaries and bodyguards from here?

The whole purpose was to be alone with Ye Xunhuan, but then this waiter suddenly came over, saying they had ordered tea, how could Su Guyan not be angry?

After hearing Su Guyan’s words, the waiter’s face immediately showed a mix of embarrassment and a deep apology: “I’m sorry, I remembered wrong!”

With that, the waiter turned towards Su Guyan with a 180-degree bow, full of apologies.

But at that moment, a flash of white light suddenly appeared in the right hand of the waiter.

The moment the blade hidden in his sleeve revealed itself, Ye Xunhuan instantly felt a surge of murderous intent.

However, it was almost perfectly concealed by the other party; if it were not for Ye Xunhuan’s far superior danger perception, he wouldn’t have noticed it.

Su Guyan, however, was completely unaware of the looming danger.

Seeing the waiter’s sincere apologies, the anger in her heart had already dissipated by half.

She wasn’t an unreasonable person; with the other party being so apologetic, if she continued to berate him, what would distinguish her from a shrew?

“It’s okay…”

Just as Su Guyan began to speak, the man suddenly stood up, knife firmly in hand, and immediately stabbed towards Su Guyan’s throat.

Upon witnessing this abrupt scene, Su Guyan was terrified, her face turning white with shock and disbelief.

She had not expected someone to attempt to assassinate her here, and in that moment, Su Guyan was completely stunned, never having thought she might die in front of the man she loved.

As death approached, Su Guyan sat there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do, yet a thought emerged in her mind—that she hoped the man would spare Ye Xunhuan after killing her and not drag him into this.

Just as the assassin’s dagger was about to reach Su Guyan’s throat, Ye Xunhuan moved.

With movements as fast as lightning, he swiftly stood up, his right hand’s index and middle fingers going straight for the sharp dagger!

“Snap!”

In the next moment, as Su Guyan looked on stunned, Ye Xunhuan’s index and middle fingers clamped directly onto the dagger.

Causing the dagger to come to a complete halt, less than a centimeter from Su Guyan’s throat.

The assassin impersonating a waiter, upon witnessing this abrupt scene, had his face suddenly filled with an unprecedented shock.

He had thought the prey was already within his grasp, that Su Guyan was certain to be killed by him, but he had not anticipated that the man opposite Su Guyan would turn out to be a first-rate expert.

Just like Lu Xiaofeng’s exquisite fingertip technique, with just his index and middle finger, he caught the assassin’s dagger, preventing it from advancing even an inch further.

This assassin was filled with an unprecedented shock, but wasn’t Su Guyan feeling the same?

She had already prepared herself for death, hoping that after killing her, the other party would spare Ye Xunhuan, but who would have thought that at this critical moment, Ye Xunhuan would step forward and catch the assailant’s lightning-fast dagger with two fingers.

Immediately after, Ye Xunhuan’s index and middle fingers forcefully exerted pressure and with a twist—

“Crack!”

A crisp sound echoed, and Ye Xunhuan had, with just two fingers, snapped the dagger in the assassin’s hand.

Then, Ye Xunhuan’s left hand flicked slightly, whipping swiftly towards the assassin’s chest.

Seeing this, the assassin almost instinctively extended his left hand, thrusting hard towards the back of Ye Xunhuan’s hand.

“Bang!”

“Crack!”

As the dull sound just emerged, the noise of bones breaking suddenly followed.

“Ah!”

Then, a pig-slaughtering-like wail instantly filled the entire restaurant.

The assassin’s five fingers, from what seemed like Ye Xunhuan’s casual flick, were broken with four fingers dangling, blood oozing, a sight of terrible misery.

Upon seeing this, the assassin ignored the pain in his hand and attempted to flee.

But would Ye Xunhuan give him the chance to escape?

He would not!

Daring to attempt murder in front of Ye Xunhuan, the man before him might not be the first, but he was the first to dare to do it in front of him, trying to kill the woman Ye Xunhuan could not let go of in his heart!

So how could Ye Xunhuan possibly let the man escape?

The moment the assailant turned to dash away quickly, Ye Xunhuan lunged toward him like an arrow, swooped in front of the man in a flash, and with his right hand clawed directly towards his shoulder.

“Get back here!”

A somewhat domineering and boundlessly murderous voice suddenly echoed throughout the restaurant.

At this moment, Ye Xunhuan and the assassin attracted the attention of everyone in the restaurant.

“Snap!”

Ye Xunhuan’s right hand directly gripped the man’s shoulder, then suddenly exerted force, squeezing hard!

“Crack!”

Another sound of bones snapping arose, followed by a tortured wail not abated, while the man’s right arm instantly dangled powerlessly.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Ye Xunhuan yanked forcefully and then, as if disposing of trash, flung the man away.

“Clang!”

The assassin’s body heavily crashed onto a nearby dining table, which instantly shattered, causing him to smash heavily onto the ground, curled up all over, his face twisted with excruciating pain!
