95: Sniper Attack

Sniper Attack

'Why does her eyes resemble that person!' Xi Ting wondered.

He then shook his head to come back to his senses. His eyes gradually turned dark.

"Who are you? Why are you so close to my son?" he asked coldly.

"Whatever you want to ask, you can ask your brother! Now give the phone back to Xiaobao," Qin Yan replied indifferently.

"You!!!!" Xi Ting could not believe that somebody can speak to him in this manner. Generally, people would take chances to fawn on him, specially people of opposite gender. 'Why is this woman speaking to me in this tone!' he wondered.

When he was immersed in his thoughts, the little guy took the phone from his hands.

Qin Yan looked at the little face on her screen and sighed, 'No wonder he looked familiar. He is basically the mini version of Xi Ting.'

She then smiled at the little guy, "Darling, you should eat now. Eating properly will help you grow up and make my darling more adorable. Sister will call you tomorrow, okay?"

The little guy nodded, "Okay, Sister Yan. Goodnight, take care."

Qin Yan also bade goodbye, "Lots of hugs and kisses for my baby. Goodnight, sweet dreams baby!"

Xi Ting saw their interactions and frowned. Somehow he was getting irritated that Qin Yan only spoke a sentence to him but conversed with the little bun for such a long time.

After the little guy hung up the phone, he sat back on his seat on dining table and started eating obediently.

Xi Ting also went back to his seat and started eating. Both father and son also put vegetables in their bowls. If Madam Li was there to watch this scene, she would definitely be shocked.

Next day, Qin Yan returned to the school. As soon as she stepped in the classroom, Qiao Qing sprinted towards her, "Yan Yan, do you know what happened yesterday?"

"Qin Muran must have apologized, what else?" Qin Yan said as a matter of fact.

"That's right, yesterday during assembly time, Qin Muran apologized in front of the entire school. I heard your parents were also there. And your mother was cursing you frequently," Qiao Qing told all the gossip of the previous day to Qin Yan.

"They wanted me to plead mercy for Qin Muran. Since I refused to do so, it's natural for her to curse me," Qin Yan replied nonchalantly.

"WHAT! Your parents wanted you to plead mercy? How can they be so unreasonable?" Qiao Qing asked furiously.

"Let it be. The matter has ended and has nothing to do with me," Qin Yan dismissed the topic.

Qiao Qing nodded but her anger was not subsided. 'How can parents be so biased,' she thought.

Qin Yan looked at Qiao Qing's face and sighed, 'What an innocent girl!'

The Moonlight villa.

Xi Ting was sitting in the wheelchair in the garden in front of the villa. He was basking in the sun as the doctor had told him toh do so.

A laptop rested in his lap and continuous typing sounds could be heard. Although his hands had not recovered properly, Xi Ting had no choice to type slowly so as to cover the backlog of work left behind him.

Out of the blue, he felt the changes in the atmosphere.

"Tss! Tss!"

He caught two soft sounds that would usually go unnoticed by a normal person.

A bullet from a silencer!

There was a sniper around them!

Xi Ting suddenly moved his wheelchair to a side. But how could the speed of moving wheelchair match the speed of bullets!

Two bullets that came from a silencer slid past his right leg and catapulted into the handrest of the wheelchair.

"It's a sniper!" Xi Ting roared.

The bodyguards were shocked. They immediately surrounded Xi Ting from all possible sides.

Xi Ting who avoided the bullets squinted his eyes. His best guards were recuperating from the last attack and he thought that with the security of moonlight villa, it would be difficult for the enemy to infiltrate.

'Who knew that a sniper would be used to kill him!'

The sniper hiding would shoot at him again once their angle was adjusted.

Xi Ting flipped the edge of his shirt up and retrieved a pistol from his belt.

The pistol was Italian made Beretta with effective shooting range of fifty meters, enough for Xi Ting now.

"Move aside!" Xi Ting ordered his bodyguards.

"Sir!!" the bodyguards were shocked at Xi Ting's orders. But seeing Xi Ting's eyes, they obediently stepped aside.

Faraway on a vantage point corresponding to a garden, the sniper who was fully dressed in fitting black clothes held onto his rifle as his dark eyes watched the guards move aside.

Xi Ting climbed down the wheelchair.

Death seeker!

The sniper chortled and adjusted the rifle in his grip, aiming at where Xi Ting was.

"Tss, tss, tss!"

Three continuous shots. The bullets were fired toward Xi Ting's position from a high point.

The speed of the bullet was not visible to the eyes but posed no challenge to Xi Ting.

As the three bullets were fired, Xi Ting did not back down. He rolled across the floor holding the pistol whilst avoiding the shots.

"Fuck!" The sniper who was hidden at the best vantage point could not help cursing when he saw how easily Xi Ting had avoided his strafing, even whilst standing where he was the most easily to be shot.

'No wonder people called him the devil! Even when injured, he is able to avoid bullets!

Angered, the sniper readjusted his aim; his pointer finger went to the trigger, about to end Xi Ting.

"Tss!"

The sound of a gunshot that the sniper was more than familiar with reverberated. He looked up abruptly to see the man standing at the ground withdrawing his pistol with a sly grin.

With a plop, the sniper collapsed on the floor in the next second, killed by a headshot.

Xi Ting had used a mere pistol in shooting the sniper!

It was one shot! Xi Ting had lifted his arm and gunned down the sniper some distance away!

Xi Ting stood up carefully. He was exhausted. His whole body felt sore. He walked to the wheelchair and plopped onto it.

Xi Jung paced back and forth in front of the bed. Mother Xi and Father Xi were also present.0

The doctor examined Xi Ting and reported, "Young Master Xi lost his consciousness because his body has been exhausted. Don't worry, he is not in danger. As long as he recuperates well, he will be fine."

The Xi family heaved a sigh of relief. They were really shocked to hear that Xi Ting was attacked again. Now that the doctor said that Xi Ting was fine, all the three felt as if huge weights were lifted off their chests.

After a while, Xi Ting woke up. The family rushed into his room to take a look at him.

Madam Li looked at her son's haggard state and her heart ached terribly, "Son, how are you feeling now?"

"I am fine," Xi Ting replied massaging his forehead.

Xi Jung was extremely worried about his brother, "Brother, this was the second major attack on you, that too with the security of Moonlight villa. What have you thought about it?"

"Have Yuan Jingyi and others recuperated already?" Xi Ting asked.

Xi Jung: "No, they still need half a month to report back to their duties."

Xi Ting: What about the beta team?

Xi Jung: Their training will finish in a month.

Xi Ting sighed. In the last attack, he had lost many of his capable bodyguards. Moreover the remaining ones were divided between the protection of him and the little bun which is why he was facing such a dilemma.

Xi Jung looked at his brother carefully and said, "Brother, can I suggest something?"

Xi Ting nodded, "Go on."

Xi Jung: "Brother, I think you should temporarily move out from the capital. Atleast till everything comes back to normal."

Xi Qinghe agreed with his younger son, "Ting, I think that younger one is right. If you stay in capital, you will constantly be in danger. You should consider his suggestion."

Xi Ting thought carefully and realised that his brother's idea was not too bad, "Where do you think I should go?" he asked Xi Jung.

Xi Jung understood that Xi Ting was considering his suggestion, "Brother, I think you should move to S city for time being. I have a condominium there in a safe apartment complex. Also the security of the complex is very tight. I think it will be safe for you."

Madam Li nodded at Xi Jung's idea, "Yes son, Xi Jung is right. You should move to S city. It is not too far away from capital and baby can also accompany you on the weekends. Also if there is any problem, we can come there within a shortest time."

Xi Ting agreed, "Fine, I'll move to S city tomorrow itself."
