Six years later, I and my four cubs blew up my ex-husband's house

The two of them exerted almost all their strength, burying their heads and running forward recklessly, their hearts pounding like drums in their chests.

During this time, the group of people behind them closed in again, their footsteps getting closer and closer, and the atmosphere was almost suffocating.

In desperation, they grabbed all the bags they had brought from shopping and hurled them at each other, creating chaos.

Taking advantage of this brief break, Marcy took out her phone and quickly dialed Zhou Si's number.

"Ah Si, save us..."

Her voice was strained, and she could barely breathe.

"What's wrong? What happened?"

Zhou Si's tone changed instantly on the other end of the phone, revealing obvious tension and urgency.

Just as Marcy was about to say something more, several dark figures suddenly flashed out from the shadows—her bodyguards, who had been secretly protecting her, had finally appeared.

Their movements were clean and swift; without hesitation, they faced the group chasing them from behind and intercepted them directly, their fists and feet exuding a fierce wind.

Ever since the incident at the castle, Zhou Si has been worried about her going out alone.

Wherever she goes, someone will always be sent to follow her secretly, just in case.

Today is no exception.

Fortunately, they appeared at the crucial moment.

The people Zhou Si sent were naturally top-notch experts.

Despite being only two people, they were like tigers among sheep, their moves sharp and swift.

Despite being surrounded by a large group of people, he seemed to handle the situation with ease and was not at a disadvantage at all.

They moved swiftly, each strike precise and ruthless, causing their opponents to retreat steadily.

Marcy and Charlene, hiding in the back, were finally able to catch their breath as the situation eased slightly.

Marcy wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Charlene gently touched her chest to calm her rapid breathing.

The two had only been calm for a few seconds.

Suddenly, a series of rapid footsteps approached from a distance.

The two were startled, their hearts leaping into their throats again.

Thinking it was the other side's reinforcements arriving, his face instantly turned pale.

Marcy instinctively clenched her fists.

Charlene looked around warily, ready to deal with any unexpected situation and escape at any time.

Thankfully, it wasn't.

Zhou Si and Shi Ye arrived.

"A-Si".

When Marcy saw the person, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she immediately ran over, her steps hurried but filled with urgency.

Zhou Si strode forward, opened his arms, and embraced her tightly.

His gaze quickly swept over her entire body, checking for injuries, his voice low and anxious: "Are you alright? Are you hurt?"

Marcy shook her head gently and said softly, "No."

Zhou Si was still uneasy. He frowned slightly, put his hands on her shoulders, and carefully looked her up and down.

His gaze swept over her slightly disheveled hair, then he crouched down to check if she had twisted her ankle.

It was confirmed that she was indeed completely unharmed, without even a scratch.

He finally let out a long sigh of relief, and his tense expression relaxed.

On the other side, Shi Ye had already rushed forward and pulled Xia Lin into his arms.

His voice was still urgent as he asked in a low voice, "Are you hurt?"

Charlene simply shook her head, unable to speak, her pale face still bearing the lingering fear.

She only felt at ease when she saw her boyfriend's familiar face and felt his warm embrace.

But her fingers were still unconsciously gripping Shi Ye's clothes tightly, trembling slightly.

Shino noticed her trembling, put one arm around her back, and gently stroked her long hair with the other.

He spoke in a very gentle voice, reassuring her repeatedly, "It's alright, don't be afraid, I'm here."

After a while, Charlene recovered from the shock, her heartbeat gradually stabilized, and her breathing became easier.

Zhou Si brought Ma Xi over as well.

Their gazes all fell on the few people in front who had already been subdued.

Zhou Si frowned, his eyes filled with doubt and wariness, and asked, "Do you know who these people are?"

Logically speaking, he has no enemies left now, so no one should dare to touch Shi Yang anymore.

How can there be such a clueless person?

Charlene hadn't had time to think things through because she was flustered.

Now that she knew the danger was over, she took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down.

She began by saying, "I have a suspicion."

All eyes immediately focused on her.

Marcy had recovered as well, and she guessed, "You mean Lee Ji-eun?"

Upon hearing the name, Shi Ye immediately frowned, a hint of confusion and wariness flashing in his eyes, and asked, "Why are you suddenly bringing her up? Did you run into her?"

His voice was a few decibels lower than usual, with a barely perceptible tension.

Charlene nodded gently and replied, "Yes, I did run into them just now."

She paused briefly to gather her thoughts, and then succinctly and clearly recounted what had just happened.

She concluded, "When we left, she looked at me with hatred in her eyes. No one but her had that motive."

As she spoke, two of her subordinates nearby swiftly finished dealing with the scene.

Those people had their hands tied behind their backs and were pinned down, their mouths stuffed with cloth strips, so they could no longer make any noise.

Others were already lying motionless on the ground.

The men walked steadily forward, carrying the bags and packages that Charlene and Marcy had hastily thrown away. They reported back in low voices and awaited further instructions.

Zhou Si's eyes were deep and his face was expressionless. He simply raised his chin slightly and ordered, "Take him away first and find out his background, who he is, and what his purpose is."

Afterwards, they were immediately taken to the police station.

He turned to Shi Ye and continued, "Take Xia Lin back to rest first, and make sure she is safe."

I will send someone else to investigate Lee Ji-eun and that man's background.

He paused briefly, his eyes sharp, "If tonight's events are truly related to them... rest assured, I will not tolerate it."

Shi Ye nodded, replying solemnly, "Okay, I'll leave the rest to you."

Zhou Si shook his head gently and said in a mild tone, "It's no trouble at all."

Marcy took a few steps closer, reached out and patted Charlene's hand, her voice softening, "Don't worry, Ah Si will handle the rest, there won't be any more problems."

Charlene lowered her head, nodded slightly, and said in a slightly choked voice, "Um... I'm sorry, I've dragged you into this."

Marcy couldn't help but chuckle, her eyes crinkling at the corners. "Do I need to be so distant with you?"

She paused, then said seriously, "Besides, the matter hasn't been fully investigated yet."

Even if it was Lee Ji-eun who did it in the end, it was because she had bad intentions.

You've never wronged anyone, you know?

Marcy spoke firmly, looking at Charlene with warm eyes.

After she offered such comfort, Charlene gave a soft "hmm" and didn't continue.
