Wooing my Bodyguard Wife

The two men looked at him in horror. They were about to be turned into fish food by this evil couple!

Li Tai Cheng still continued. "Ah, if only we could make rice dumplings out of them, the fishes would eat well then…"

Li Tai Xuan heard this and promptly shuddered; now he would never stop wondering where his parents got the meat for the annual dumpling festival.

Yue Niang rolled her eyes at her husband's suggestion, but for the wrong reasons. "The fishes would die of indigestion and the fishermen would have our heads. Don't cripple the food chain!"

Ding Fei hurriedly added, "I don't taste good! Don't chop me up to make rice dumplings!"

Li Tai Cheng had the nerve to give him a sweeping glance from head to toe, before frowning. "Young man, have more confidence in yourself! You're a youth in the peak of health, your meat will be more tender and full of nutrients!"

Ding Fei shook his head frantically. "No sir!" He cried out. "I eat a lot of junk food! The fishes will die!" And if he had known this would be his future, he should have eaten more! Why did he bother working out if he was just going to end up at the bottom of the ocean!

Tai Cheng waved a reassuring hand at him. "Don't worry, I already said we can't do that, since we don't live near the ocean. The river here is too small to fit all of you!"

Meanwhile, Jingwei's mouth fell open when he saw the gory sight of Xue Ning's room - blood splatters, broken chairs, the messed up bed and fallen curtains… It was just like the hospital room with Ya Ren! No wonder Xue Ning had seemed so rattled when he saw her on the couch. Jingwei squeezed her hand tightly, hoping to give her comfort.

Then he actually registered the words of her parents, and his mouth fell even further. Were they just casually discussing body disposal methods when no one died yet?

"How about getting us to a hospital?" Ding Fei pleaded. "We need to see a doctor! If we live, you won't need to worry about burying us!"

Jingwei suddenly remembered the three men in the restaurant. They definitely needed some sort of medical attention!

"My friend, we can't let you do that." Tai Cheng argued. "Even if we brought you to our tiny town hospital, how are we going to explain the injuries of you and your companions? Imagine if the police came! I'll get you some bandages and painkillers instead!"

"Bandages and painkillers?!" Ding Fei was so mad, he forgot to be afraid. He angrily pointed at his empty eye socket. "Uncle, are you crazy? What bandage can regrow my eye?"

"No hospital can regrow your eye too," Tai Cheng retorted pleasantly. Meanwhile, his son clapped his hands, startling everyone.

"The police!" Tai Xuan exclaimed, finally remembering his wife who was still hiding in their bedroom. "I got Xin Yu to call the police!"

"Oh dear, this is a problem," Yue Niang grumbled. "Why did you do that?"

"How much time do we have until they arrive?" Tai Cheng asked.

"I'll check with Xin Yu," Tai Xuan said, quickly running to his bedroom. "Wife, wife, open the door! It's me!"

The door swung open, and Tai Xuan was greeted with the red-rimmed eyes of his wife. Her face was pale, but it had puffed up from crying, so she reminded Tai Xuan of a steamed bun. She held her hair dryer in one hand, ready to fling it at her husband.

"Finally you remember I'm still here!" Xin Yu squawked out, her voice hoarse. "What took you so long? You idiot husband, don't you know how scared I was?"

She had heard the sound of fighting, and some yelling, and the muffled voices of her in-laws and husband.

Xin Yu then thought everything was fine and her husband would come and get her, but then she waited and waited, until she eventually became less scared and more impatient. She crawled out from under the bed and stood by the door, making sure to grab her hairdryer as a weapon.

And now her husband finally appeared! Honestly, was it too much to ask for him to send a quick text to let her know everything was fine!

"Sorry, sorry," Tai Xuan said, rubbing circles around her back. "It's my fault, but now everything is sort of resolved! Did you call the police?"

"I tried, but that idiot hung up on me!" Xin Yu exclaimed, vibrating with righteous anger. "This is ridiculous, don't you think so? That man claimed I was lying about robbers and called me a prank caller!"

"Those bastards!" Tai Xuan declared angrily. "But you have nothing to worry about now, let's go see Mom and Dad. They saved us!"

"Really?" Xin Yu didn't believe it, but she still followed her husband to her sister-in-law's room, where she was greeted with a gory sight that made her dizzy. "Oh… oh my god… there's so much blood…"

"Mom, the police aren't coming." Tai Xuan said as he blocked his wife's view of the room with his body. "Apparently some asshole on duty thought Xin Yu was lying about the robbery!"

"Oh thank god," Yue Niang looked at the ceiling that was miraculously free of blood and clasped her hands together in relief. "One less thing to worry about! So now we just need to get rid of all seven of you."

Her words were so mind-boggling that Xue Ning had to pause, just to make sure she heard them correctly. Calling the police is bad? Disposing of invaders?

Was this really her mother who used to tell her younger self to go to the police station if she witnessed a crime, or if something happened to her?

Meanwhile, Tai Cheng disagreed. "Wife, just getting rid of them like this is such a waste."

Ding Fei looked up at him hopefully, only for his hopes to be completely dashed at his next words. "Instead, we should make use of them to lure out the mastermind of this entire scheme!"
