The Villain's Wife

The Villain’s Wife 458 Stabbed

After a few more explosions and gunfire, the lights inside the room started to flicker. Smoke seeped through the door.

"Do you have anything else that we can use as a weapon?" Lily asked as she looked around the room. Unfortunately, there was nothing there. "The knife—"

"Keep it." He said. "I can defend myself." The chains clanked as he finished removing the ones in his leg.

Lily swallowed her saliva. She had never been to any gunfire before. She had not killed anyone and is not an expert in martial arts either. If only her words could kill, she thought and smiled inwardly. For some reason, she is not as concerned as she should be.

Maybe it was because she trusted Zhou Jingren. Maybe it was because she knew he will save her like a knight in shining armor. The thought of being saved made her giddy. Lily was not able to mask the excitement of seeing him again.

"Stop smiling," Qin Yuanfeng said. "You are weird."

Lily cleared her throat in response. What weird? She was not weird, all right? She rolled her eyes and eyed the door. Not long after, they saw the door opened, revealing an angry Jack and a few of his men behind him.

When he saw Lily, an obvious relief flashed in his eyes before he walked towards Lily and viciously yank her. And that was when Qin Yuanfeng charged towards Jack. Unfortunately, he was greatly outnumbered. Three of Jack’s men immediately fought against him, giving Jack the time to pull Lily out of the room. "Stand up! I know you are faking it!"

"You are coming with me," he hissed, his crazed eyes bore into her before he examined the hallway. With a gun, on his other hand, Jack twisted Lily’s arms as he dragged her.

Lily scowled in pain. She grabbed the knife on her waist and held it closer towards her body. "Let go, you’re hurting me!"

"Jack," Lily immediately froze when he heard Zhou Jingren’s voice. She turned behind her and there he was. In a black suit, a gun in hand. She frowned. He had lost weight. His cheeks were sunken, his hair was a little too long and stubble can be seen on his chin. Despite the flickering lights and noise, Lily’s gaze caught the fear in her man’s eyes.

The thought of Zhou Jingren’s emotions when she was gone immediately made her upset. She had avoided thinking about his reactions for too long as she does not want to succumb to her own emotions. He must have been devastated, hurt.

Lily’s thoughts were interrupted when she heard Jack hissed as he back away, his back against the wall. His movements were swift as he locked his arms around her neck. "One move and she’s dead." He said in a menacing tone.

Lily’s widened her eyes before she tried to move her head. Jack was choking her trachea, stopping her from breathing. She tucked her chin as a reflex. She remembered how this will give her access to some air.

"Tell your people to leave my men alone," Jack said, his eyes narrowed at Zhou Jingren. "Prepare air transport for me and she lives."

Lily shook her head. She saw Bei Tian approached Zhou Jingren. He whispered something towards him.

"It’s too late, Jack. Everyone is dead." Zhou Jingren said. All this time his eyes never left Lily. "Give me my wife and I might just spare you."

"You are not in the right position to negotiate! I say what I want and you follow it! Or I kill her!" He tightened his arms around her neck. Once again, Lily shook her head as she slowly revealed the knife in her hand, making sure that Zhou Jingren can see it.

Surprise quickly flashed in Zhou Jingren’s eyes before he stared at Jack. "If you kill her, you are not getting out of this place alive."

"And you want me to believe that you will not kill me if I let her go?" Jack snorted. "Do you think I’m a fool?"

"You are a fool." Zhou Jingren said. "Did you really think you could just take someone else’s wife because you want to?"

"She is no longer your wife!" Jack yelled, his eyes wide. "She is not your Lily! Not anymore!"

"Now, get me my helicopter and let me leave this place!" He added before he buried his face at the crooked of Lily’s neck, inhaling her scent. "Or... do you want to see her dead in front of you?"

"Alright," Zhou Jingren’s tone changed. He met Lily’s eyes, a tinge of understanding flooded their gaze. "Bei Tian... prepare a lift for them."

"But...

"Just do it." Zhou Jingren hissed. Seeing this, Lily gave a silent nod as she bit her lips. Courage and determination swirled in her eyes.

Seeing Bei Tian left, a smug smile appeared on Jack’s face. "Remember this... after today, you will never see us again." He taunted. "After today, Lily is dead. Your wife is dead!"

"Now, drop your gun!" Jack added. Victory apparent in his face. "Now!"

In response, Zhou Jingren clenched his jaws. He slowly dropped his gun to the floor.

"Kicked it away from you!" he ordered. When Zhou Jingren did not move, Jack turned his gun towards his direction. Unbeknownst to him, that was the cue that Lily was waiting for. She swung the knife as hard as she could towards his neck.

One, two... three...

Lily didn’t stop. It was as if a sudden pleasure flooded inside her as she thought of stabbing the man who made them suffer.

She stabbed and slice. Stabbed and never stopped. She felt Jack loosen his arm, allowing Lily to turn towards him. Her eyes red, full of tears as she stabbed his stomach. Then his chest. She stabbed and screamed. She felt her body tremble, her brain shut. But she never stopped.

Jack quickly fell onto the floor, his eyes full of disbelief as he eyed Lily. But, this was not enough to stop her. She straddled the latter and started stabbing again. Her mind in shambles as an unfamiliar feeling rose within her. It wasn’t anger nor pleasure. It was something else. Something that she did not recognize. Yet, it made her feel good, relieved.

She felt someone hugged her from behind, pulling her away from his body. She struggled and reached out to stabbed Jack again. She didn’t blink nor closed her eyes as she watched life slowly dwindled away from his orbs.

She stabbed and stabbed again.
