Rebirth: My Dear Little Wife Is So Scheming-Chapter 445 - Fragmentation Mines

Chapter 445: Chapter 445 Fragmentation Mines

Chapter 445 -445 Fragmentation Mines

“An Zhiyuan!” Bai Xiao’s shout cut through the noisy voices, silencing everyone.

The scene fell so quiet that it became suffocatingly sad.

Everyone knew this area was a minefield, and disarming the mines was an unimaginably difficult task.

The engineers had already started preparing their equipment; they were going to rescue An Zhiyuan.

An Zhiyuan turned his head and saw Bai Xiao, his heart warmed.

If it was fated for him to die for his country, to see his beloved one last time was probably the happiest thing.

At this moment, he felt a faint comfort, thankful that although his marriage report had been approved, he hadn’t had the chance to get a marriage certificate. If he had been that prompt and gotten the marriage certificate, no matter if he and Bai Xiao truly ended up together or not, Bai Xiao would have become a widow in name.

That way, even in death, he would have wronged Bai Xiao.

But now, even if he were to die, Bai Xiao could still live a good life, at least without carrying the stigma of widowhood, subject to society’s whispers.

Even that would have had an impact on Bai Xiao’s future life.

Now he could die with peace of mind.

“Bai Xiao, it’s okay, I’m okay. Don’t worry, everything’s fine,” he reassured Bai Xiao. He feared she would rush over—despite Bai Xiao seeming cold-hearted, her nature was so passionately loving and hating. He might not have understood it before, but later he did; Bai Xiao was the type who warmed up slowly. Once she opened her heart, she would be incredibly sincere and devoted to someone.

He knew he had opened that door, but now he wished he hadn’t, at least so Bai Xiao wouldn’t have to face her own grief.

“Xiao Hu, no matter what happens, your order is to stop the doctor,” An Zhiyuan commanded.

Xiao Hu said with tears, “Yes, Commander.”

He understood the commander’s meaning and firmly gripped Bai Xiao.

Bai Xiao waved her hand, “Don’t hold onto me; I won’t act impulsively and do something foolish. Right now our priority is to figure out how to rescue your commander. I won’t create any trouble,” her calm tone made Xiao Hu sheepishly retract his hand.

The doctor didn’t seem like someone who would do something foolish.

Feeling somewhat angry inside, the doctor really seemed not to care about their commander at all; otherwise, which engaged couple wouldn’t be worried sick for each other’s safety? The doctor showed none of that concern, despite how much their commander cherished her.

Bai Xiao watched the engineers advance, following the path marked by footprints, until they finally reached An Zhiyuan.

Far off, the wounded were still desperately suppressing their groans of pain; at this moment, they didn’t want the engineers to be distracted. A single distraction could lead to a tragic outcome for everyone.

They didn’t want any harm to come to their commander.

Half an hour later, the engineer looked up with a grim expression. This was a fragmentation mine, which could not be defused. If they tried to defuse it their way, the mine would explode immediately, sending out shards that would injure anyone within a sixty-meter radius, potentially triggering other mines in a chain reaction. If that happened, no one in the area would have a chance.

Even for them, the engineers, facing this kind of mine was a matter of life or death.

An Zhiyuan calmly looked at the engineer, and from his face, An Zhiyuan could already tell the answer.

“You, withdraw!”

From that moment, he had known that he would face death; now, he had to ensure that even if he died, his death would be worth something, at least to minimize the casualties among his team members.
