Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 1300: Chapter 1294 Ye Xuan Ambushed_1 Chapter 1300: Chapter 1294 Ye Xuan Ambushed_1 Only after her dispatchers, including Qin Xue, had left, did she finally enter her house. She was quite exhausted today, with her legs particularly achy.

“Qin Xue, you’re home,” observed Fang Xiu as she heard the sound of the door opening.

“Hmm, I’m back. Have the kids been causing trouble?” Qin Xue asked as she fastened the door after entering.

“No, they have been well behaved. They didn’t make a fuss,” replied Fang Xiu only after she saw Qin Xue had secured the door. There was no point in speaking while Qin Xue was focused elsewhere. Unless Quincy focused on her, even shouting wouldn’t make Xu hear her words, so Fang Xiu had no choice but wait. Otherwise, she’d have to write it down.

“Good. Where are they?” Qin Xue asked about the four children.

“They’re playing in the living room.” Fang Xiu pointed towards the living room.

“Fine, I’ll freshen up a bit first. I feel uncomfortable,” said Qin Xue. She had spent the entire day walking and sweating and was feeling sticky all over.

“All right, go ahead,” Fang Xiu said, mentioning that she had warmed some water in a kettle. Since the kids needed warm water for their bath, she ensured the hot water supply was uninterrupted.

While Qin Xue left to shower, Fang Xiu peeked at the securely latched door, wondering why Chu Molin hadn’t returned home with Qin Xue.

Chu Molin was off to help Ye Xuan, who himself was in a fair bit of trouble. Three days ago…

“Who are you?” Ye Xuan queried the large group in front of him. He wondered if stepping out today had been ill-advised according to the Chinese calendar given his current predicament.

Upon receiving information that the boss of group X was sighted nearby, he hurried over. But instead of finding the boss, he fell into a trap.

“Don’t you know who we are? Forgot so soon?” The leader of the group recognized Ye Xuan, despite his clever disguise. It was Ye Xuan who had murdered their boss.

“So, it’s you all. Now tell me, where is your boss?” Ye Xuan hadn’t expected to run into the henchmen of group X’s boss. It was quite a strange coincidence. Facing so many men alone was going to be a tough fight. He wondered if he might die here today.

“With death so imminent, you still care about our boss. What should I say to you?” The leader of the group laughed at Ye Xuan.

“Whether I die or not is still undecided. Your boss must be too afraid of being killed by me again, that’s why he doesn’t dare show up, right?” Ye Xuan had come solely to deal with the boss of group X, so he had to lure him out even if he was surrounded. He wanted to see if the boss had miraculously come back from the dead.

“We don’t need your provocation. Today, there’s no way you’re escaping. Brothers, take him down. Avenge our boss!” The leader was sharp enough not to be provoked into revealing the real boss’s whereabouts by Ye Xuan’s taunts.

“Come on then if that’s the case. As long as we can avenge the boss, it doesn’t matter,” stated someone from the crowd. At once, seven or eight men slowly closed in towards Ye Xuan.

Despite appearing calm, Ye Xuan was anxious deep inside. Surrounded by so many yet without the man he needed, he wouldn’t rest even in death. But there was no time for these thoughts now, so he focused on finding an opening through which he could escape.

After much effort, Ye Xuan broke free from the encirclement. Although he had sustained quite a few injuries, he managed to evade those searching for him. Today had proven to be a costly day.

“Where is he? He was seen running this way and he’s badly hurt. Where could he have vanished?” Ye Xuan heard voices from outside and slowed his breathing as much as possible.
