Secret Wife Is A Crazy Beast

Chapter 19 - She saved him

Shen flinched, waiting for a ricochet or something to shatter.

The windows were extremely thick, bulletproof glass.

Where did the bullet go! He could see the casing, so she definitely fired a shot.

The scent of gunpowder lingered in the air as Sojin and James looked on stunned and shaken.

They weren't in the least bit terrified, they had just been witnessing Shen's torturous methods. But the arrival of this beauty was highly unexpected.

Not only did her demeanour completely change, but her movements were those of an experienced killer, far more skilled than anything they had ever seen.

James and Shen looked rightfully confused, but Sojin knew exactly what had happened.

"YOU BITCH!"

Sojin lost his mind as he sprung to his feet and rushed towards Lina mindlessly and threateningly.

He had hardly leapt a foot in her direction before fresh blood splattered all over Lina.

Shen had blocked him by piercing the hunting knife he was still holding straight into Sojin's throat. Arterial spray had immediately covered Lina's fair skin.

As he let go of the knife and Sojin's twitching body dropped to the floor with a heavy thud.

In a second, he was at Lina's side, trying to wipe the blood off her with his shirt sleeves.

"Baby I'm sorry...so sorry..." he kept whispering as he tried to clean her.

She didn't seem to notice, or even bother with all the blood. In fact, she was wildly confused at her own actions.

Earlier, her body seemed to have been possessed, as if someone else had taken over the set of controls in her brain.

She ran over to the window, gauging the angle at which she had shot the bullet.

Tracing her fingers over the area, she found a small hole drilled into it. It was invisible unless looked for. Just enough for a bullet to pass.

A hole needed to be drilled because the glass windows were naturally bullet proof. If Shen were to be killed, Sojin had to keep him standing at a particular spot where the sniper could aim the bullet right through the hole to kill him in one shot.

It was devious and deadly.

As Shen, Ayu and the bodyguard joined her, they realised what had happened.

"Ayu, Ro-kun, send men up the roof of Yinan Industries' building. Inform me immediately of what and who you find there."

As he gave orders, Ayu and Ro-kun, the bodyguard with the scar above his left eye, sprung into action.

The sound of a sarcastic laugh and slow clap reverberated through the office. Lina turned around quickly, finally acknowledging James' presence.

"Who would've known that fool Sojin actually had a sniper set up on the Yinan rooftop!"

James' voice was high pitched and laced with contempt. Lina shivered.

Without a second thought, Shen pulled her into his embrace.

Whatever, he'd kill James if he had to. Besides, he still had an impressive bargaining chip against the hacker. He wouldn't dare move against his wife.

"Young master Shen...you sure have been complacent. Not coming in or showing your face to the empire you run for over three months. Someone was bound to move against you."

"I hacked this outdated security system of yours twice without a single alert. I mean, I had no idea Sojin was drilling a hole for his sniper in here, but that was probably the only ingenious thing he did! You would have been dead if not for the little lady here."

Lina trembled harder and clung on to Shen.

'Dead? If she hadn't panicked and kicked up a fuss, Shen might have been shot. She would have never seen him again.'

Shen grit his teeth as he composed himself.

"Sit down James. Not another word from you, or I just make this one call and..."

James' smug face revealed anxiety and hatred for a split second. Then he turned aloof again and went back to the sofa.

Shen turned his attention to Lina.

"Let's go, angel. We need to get you cleaned up and resting in bed. You've overexerted yourself way too much today."

With that, he kissed her gently on the forehead and guided her out.

As they walked out of the office, Shen noticed the shot up and destroyed security system.

He turned to Lina, wide-eyed.

She looked up at him and sheepishly grinned.

"Sorry about that hubby...you're going to need a new one."

"You think so?!"

"Well what did you expect! You left me all alone at home, without telling me where you went off to, worrying me so badly that I got very very sick and then I had to fight with that very beautiful lady to make her bring me here. And then what do I find?! Hubby covered in blood. You should be thanking me for saving you!"

Her barrage sounded like an indignant child looking for praise.

Shen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Where did Lina learn how to handle guns and disable highly complex security systems. He had known she was extremely clever and that she was hiding something, but she had never once let on that she was so seasoned with weapons and death.

Yet, he gave in.

"Yes, my darling wife, you saved me. You're the best, the strongest and always right. I'm sorry I made that scowling woman Ayu try to keep you at home. You should always be by my side."

Lina was finally satisfied. She let him stroke her hair and cuddle her on the way back home.

As Lina fell asleep in his arms, he received a notification on his phone.

It was from Ro-kun:

~Sir, we found a dead sniper. One shot kill to the head.~

He looked down at the pretty, serene little woman in his arms.

She saved him.

The perfect aim, noticing the reflective glint, aiming directly into an invisible hole in the window and shooting a sniper a normal person wouldn't be able to identify.

Who is she?
