The Big Boss & His Dainty Wife

Chapter 361: Chapter 361: Hai Xiaotang was Arrested _1

Like a magic trick, what was once a harmonious scene had become chaotic in an instant.

Guests were fleeing in all directions, bullets were flying everywhere…

Upon hearing the first gunshot, Hai Xiaotang had already dived for cover.

She hid in a corner of the balcony, peered through the gaps in the curtains, and watched the situation unfold.

Tao Yi’s undercover team was engaging in a fierce firefight with a group of men.

The opposition appeared to be a gang, with every member armed and dangerous, their attacks ruthless and lethal.

Hai Xiaotang kept her gaze fixed on Tao Yi, terrified he might get hurt.

Fortunately, he was highly skilled…

In just a moment’s time, almost all the guests had fled, leaving only the two sides in battle.

However, Tao Yi’s team was outnumbered and was soon dwindling when a deafening alarm suddenly sounded from outside.

One of the gang members rushed in from outside, yelling, “The special police are here, lots of them! We need to evacuate now!”

So, they decided to retreat while fending off Tao Yi and his men.

Just when Hai Xiaotang thought she was safe, a gun was suddenly thrust against her forehead!

Hai Xiaotang shuddered, her body went stiff, and she dared not move.

A man had discovered her. He grabbed her and entered the main hall, threatening Tao Yi and his team, “Step back, all of you, and let us go, or I’ll kill her!”

Tao Yi turned his head and was shocked to see Hai Xiaotang had been captured!

At the same time, he was enraged—

“Let her go!” He pointed his gun at the man holding Hai Xiaotang, his menacing gaze striking fear.

But the man wasn’t about to lower his gun. He sneered coldly, “If we don’t make it out of here today, this woman will die with us! We’re on borrowed time. I demand you retreat immediately!”

Tao Yi’s stare grew colder.

However, he didn’t dare risk Hai Xiaotang’s life…

Clasping his gun tightly, he slowly stepped back, gritting his teeth, “Fine, we’ll retreat. Don’t harm her, you better not harm her!”

Otherwise, he wouldn’t hesitate to obliterate their entire gang.

“Don’t harm her? Hmph, if we can’t escape, this woman will die!” The man retorted, pressing the gun harder against Hai Xiaotang’s forehead.

Hai Xiaotang was terrified inside. She bit her lip hard to prevent herself from screaming out loud.

Tao Yi yearned to comfort her, but he didn’t dare reveal any sign of familiarity towards her.

He feared that these people would be even more unlikely to spare her…

As soon as Tao Yi and his team retreated, the gang members promptly escaped, and naturally, Hai Xiaotang was taken away with them.

Tao Yi planned to pursue them immediately to rescue Hai Xiaotang, but was abruptly ordered by his superiors to stand by. He wasn’t allowed to act on his own!

****************

Hai Xiaotang was kidnapped.

The gangsters used her as a hostage to escape successfully.

Dongfang Yu received the news quickly, which he found to be unbelievable, “What did you say?!”

The person on the other end of the phone repeated what had transpired.

Dongfang Yu tightened his grip, almost crushing his phone, “Are you sure it was Hai Xiaotang who was kidnapped?!”

“Certain! I was at the scene. The person they took was her,” confirmed the person at the other end.

He was a friend of Dongfang Yu and had met Hai Xiaotang before.

So the moment Hai Xiaotang was taken, he rushed to notify him.

“I understand!” Dongfang Yu bit down hard, his eyes glinting with a bloodthirsty rage.

He hung up the phone and bolted out of the house, heading straight to the scene!

The hotel where the gunfight broke out had been locked down.
