The Personal Bodyguard of the Female CEO

26: Chapter 026: Die Together 26: Chapter 026: Die Together “I’ll stay, let her go,” Wang Dadong said very calmly.

It was as if what he was about to do was a trivial matter.

But it was far from trivial, because staying could very likely mean death.

Lin Shiyan looked at Wang Dadong with utter disbelief.

In her eyes, Wang Dadong was nothing more than a pretty boy who knew how to charm women.

Their relationship had also become extremely strained, and she’d never expected him to step forward to die for her at this moment.

Looking at his shoulder, still streaming with blood, Lin Shiyan’s heart was suddenly touched.

The bullet had penetrated his shoulder directly—how painful that must have been.

Yet, Wang Dadong hadn’t even glanced at his wound and had gone straight into negotiating with the criminal.

At this moment, Wang Dadong no longer seemed sleazy, but filled with a real man’s commanding presence.

Upon Wang Dadong’s stepping forward, Zhang Jun was also somewhat stunned.

He had never expected someone would actually do such a thing.

“If you’re a real man, I hope you keep your word,” Wang Dadong continued.

“Wang Dadong, I don’t want you to save me!” Lin Shiyan suddenly shouted.

Although she was afraid of dying, if Wang Dadong truly died for her, she would never be at peace for the rest of her life.

He was the person she hated the most, yet he was about to become her savior—she couldn’t accept it.

“Men are talking, no woman should interrupt!” Wang Dadong shouted coldly at Lin Shiyan.

Wang Dadong’s shout, so unlike his usually frivolous demeanor, commanded so much authority that Lin Shiyan actually forgot to argue back.

It was as if at this moment, Lin Shiyan, usually a high-and-mighty ice queen CEO, had turned into a sensible, obedient little woman, standing quietly behind her man, letting him shelter her from the storm.

“Brother, you’ve got guts!” Zhang Jun gave Wang Dadong a thumbs-up, then coldly said to Lin Shiyan, “You can go.”

“I’m not leaving.

If we die, we die together,” Lin Shiyan said stubbornly, biting her lip.

At this moment, she didn’t know what to do.

Although she so despised Wang Dadong, wishing he would disappear from her life forever,

when really faced with that moment, she somehow found she couldn’t bear to let him go.

Maybe even she didn’t understand why she had said they should die together.

“Lin Shiyan, can you think straight for once?

If you don’t leave, we both die.

This isn’t the time to throw a CEO’s tantrum.

Listen to me, go home right now, clean up, and wait for me,” Wang Dadong expressed his frustration.

He was so annoyed he almost scolded Lin Shiyan outright as a foolish woman.

Without her as a burden, dealing with one criminal would be a matter of minutes.

If it were another time, upon hearing Wang Dadong speak in such a crude manner, Lin Shiyan would certainly have exploded in fury, cursing Wang Dadong as a scoundrel and a rogue.

But now, his words unexpectedly made her nose sting.

“Okay, I will wait for you.

You must come back,” Lin Shiyan, ultimately a decision-maker at a big company, knew what choice to make at this moment was the right one.

As Wang Dadong had said, if she stayed, both of them would die.

Everyone looked at Lin Shiyan with envy, especially the women present.

If their men were also willing to sacrifice their lives for them, how could they have gotten divorced?

In their eyes, Lin Shiyan’s choice to divorce Wang Dadong must have been because her brain got squeezed by a door.

Now knowing his worth?

Too late…

The men, however, lowered their heads.

Although they understood the logic that losing one life was better than losing two, they still lacked the courage to step forward for their women or, rather, their former women.

Not everyone has the courage to face death.

Since they dare not face it, they can only hope for a miracle to occur.

Of course, the reason miracles are called miracles is that they basically never happen.

“Brother, although I respect you as a man, this was your own choice, so you can’t blame me,” Zhang Jun slowly aimed the gun at Wang Dadong.

Wang Dadong nonchalantly shrugged his shoulders, saying, “Can you let me have a cigarette before I die?”

“What’s the situation inside?” Lin Shiyan had just walked out of the marriage registry office when a young female police officer came running over in a hurry.

Seeing the police officer, a hint of joy surged on Lin Shiyan’s face as she said, “There’s an armed criminal inside, Officer, please go and save my husband!”

Even Lin Shiyan herself hadn’t realized that at this moment, she referred to Wang Dadong as her husband.

To think that, just a few minutes ago, she couldn’t wait to divorce Wang Dadong.

“Don’t worry, serving the people and protecting their lives and property is our police duty, I will definitely save your husband!”

The young female officer raised her fist and, holding her gun, walked towards the door of the divorce registry office.

However, just a few steps out, the young officer slipped, fell on the ground, and her gun dropped as well.

“Damn it!

Who the hell was so wicked to throw a banana peel on the ground?

It almost killed me,” the young officer cursed as she rubbed her painfully bruised butt.

“Bang!”

Just then, the heavy sound of a gunshot came from the marriage registry office.

Lin Shiyan’s beautiful face was instantly drowned in tears.

“Yes, I am your husband Wang Dadong, nice to meet you for the first time, please take good care of me.”

“Wife, are you kidding me?

I brought the marriage certificate; our being together is legal, there’s nothing improper about it.”

“Most fruits are cool in nature, so it’s best not to eat them for breakfast.

I’ve already cooked porridge and left it on the dining table.

Don’t worry about time, I’ve set your alarm clock ten minutes fast, which is enough time for you to have breakfast.

No need to thank me, it’s what a good husband should do.”

“I was wrong, my sweet wife, my good wife, I really meant to help you with the laundry.”

“My wife, wise and valiant!”

…

All the little moments with Wang Dadong suddenly surfaced in Lin Shiyan’s mind.

It was then that Lin Shiyan realized, Wang Dadong wasn’t that bad after all.

Although he always acted carelessly and hardly ever said anything serious, he was still good to her.

Maybe, her expectations were just too high.

Or perhaps her pride was getting in the way, feeling that she, an outstanding woman, should not marry such an ordinary man.

Wang Dadong did appear very ordinary, but at least, he was willing to die for her.

However, it was all too late now…

Lin Shiyan squatted painfully on the ground, her hands holding her head, burying it deep between her knees.

If there were still a chance, she might not accept Wang Dadong, but at least she would treat him well.

“Are you really a police officer?

Didn’t you get your badge through backdoor connections?”

At that moment, Wang Dadong’s cursing voice suddenly erupted.
