Chapter 858: A Direct Confrontation (1)

Mark received orders from his leader to not engage the armed forces directly, but ignore everyone else first and leave with only Ling Tianya.

Although Mark didn’t understand just what the relationship between his leader and Ling Tianya. was, Mark couldn’t disobey his orders.

Just when Mark and his gang were about to capture Ling Tianya, the armed forces broke in through the windows. Mark grabbed Ling Tianya before anyone else could stop him, then the other KSI members provided cover for him to leave the living room and prepare to break out.

After Mark left, the people who subdued Da Yi left as well.

Watching Ling Tianya being taken away, Da Yi told the Yuan family’s guards, “Take care of this place.”

Then, Da Yi rushed out to chase after Mark and his gang.

Zhang Ke’s left shoulder was still bleeding from the bullet wound. She sat on the floor as she watched Da Yi give chase with a complicated expression on her face.

The armed forces successfully saved Ruan Qishan and the rest. Old lady Ruan pointed in the direction Mark ran away and said to the police, “Hurry! Hurry and save my granddaughter-in-law. She was taken away by those terrorists!”

Since their first day at the mansion, Mark and the gang had been planning their escape route in case they were exposed. Only, they didn’t expect to be exposed so soon, and even more than that they didn’t expect the country’s armed forces to actually be capable.

His leader had told him not to underestimate the police and armed forces of this country, but he had snorted. Mark had undergone navy training in Country E and thought that his combat experience would be much greater than that of the troops of this peaceful country.

To think that the leader was right. He had underestimated this country and let down his guard, which caused this situation where they had to run and hide.

Despite his experience in strategizing and combat, Mark still lost many subordinates while breaking out.

In the car, Mark slapped Ling Tianya, whom he had taken hostage.

“God damn it! If I hadn’t had to bring you, I wouldn’t have lost so many men!”

Both of Ling Tianya’s hands were bound, so she could only lick the corners of her mouth. “Who is your leader? Why does he want you to bring me! Does it have to do with my missing memories?”

Mark’s eyes were savage. “You should be glad that the leader wants to keep you alive! If not, I would make sure that you accompanied my dead brothers!”

Ling Tianya laughed lightly. Although her heart was trembling, she kept her expression calm and composed, as if she had nothing to fear.

In front of that kind of expression, Mark grew increasingly uneasy. “What kind of woman are you? Don’t you know that you are being kidnapped right now?”

Ling Tianya nodded. “I know.”

“So why can’t you act like a normal woman, scream and struggle in fear?” At least that way, Mark would feel a little accomplished. The way Ling Tianya was acting now made him feel defeated.

Ling Tianya laughed softly. “I never do anything pointless. If I screamed and struggled in fear, nothing would change. I would only deplete my energy unnecessarily. It’s not worth it.”

Mark’s breath stalled. This woman was so strange…

“Besides…” Ling Tianya’s eyes glanced to one side. “I don’t think you’ll be able to leave here successfully either.”

Mark laughed. “I admit that your country’s police is very capable. But I still got you out of the mansion. Besides, our extraction plan is foolproof, so you can stop your wishful thinking.”

Ling Tianya smiled. “It looks like you still aren’t very good at Mandarin. There are problems with both your grammar and vocabulary, but the biggest problem is your understanding of the sayings.”
