Are You Crazy? You're Telling Me This Is a Fugitive TV Show?-Chapter 243: Xiao Yanran Is Here! Being Taken Hostage? You’re Playing with Fire!
A young girl stepped out of the car, wearing a pink dress and carrying a yellow backpack adorned with a Doraemon cartoon. This girl was Xiao Yanran.
“Is Brother Wang Yun here?” Xiao Yanran asked, looking somewhat confused at the two foreigners beside her.
The two foreigners nodded, giving her a somewhat forced smile.
“Yes, he’s up there. Your Brother Wang Yun will be here soon,” they said, motioning to lead her inside.
Xiao Yanran had been in the hospital for a while, but she was very fortunate as her surgery was a success. She was discharged last week and received an invitation three days ago, promising a chance to meet her savior. frёewebnoѵēl.com
To Xiao Yanran, Wang Yun was indeed her savior. She always wore the necklace he had given her and had been thinking about returning it to him, feeling that such a precious gift was too valuable to keep. Moreover, she wanted to thank Wang Yun in person.
“Is the show really on a break? You’re not lying to me, right?” Xiao Yanran asked as she stood at the entrance of the observation room, looking intently at the staff beside her.
“Of course. You’ve been in the hospital, so you might not know what’s been happening online,” one of the foreigners replied. “We’re preparing for the next season now. Brother Wang Yun is coming to meet the producer. You’re our lucky audience member who gets to meet and take a photo with him.”
These foreigners, wearing headscarves, seemed to be underestimating Xiao Yanran’s intelligence with such a flimsy lie. Despite being in the hospital, she still had access to television and was well aware of the ongoing show.
Xiao Yanran was no fool. When she received the call, she immediately understood their intentions.
“Alright, but don’t lie to me,” she said, blinking her innocent eyes with a serious expression.
Now that she had recovered, Xiao Yanran looked much healthier and more vibrant. Her demeanor had changed from being frail to exuding vitality. Combined with her sweet appearance, she embodied the image of the quintessential girl-next-door.

“Boss, where’d that pretty girl come from?” Brother Hu was just as surprised to see Xiao Yanran.
Could she be a new Captain from another country? But she didn’t look the part.
“She’s a girl I saved once,” Wang Yun said in a low, grim voice.
His whole demeanor was filled with killing intent. These bastards had taken a hostage. And it was Xiao Yanran, one of his own fans.
“Damn it, that’s disgusting, so despicable,” Brother Hu, understanding the situation immediately, swore angrily.
“Wait, something doesn’t seem right…” Wang Yun’s fury was intense, but then his enhanced vision noticed something.
As Xiao Yanran entered the headquarters, she briefly touched the door frame, peeking inside and writing something on the wall with her finger. Five seconds later, she withdrew her hand and walked in.
“What’s not right? These bastards kidnapped the girl you saved. Damn it, why don’t we just charge in there and rescue her?” Brother Hu’s rage was palpable, partly because he found Xiao Yanran quite pretty.
“No need. Weren’t you always worried about how we could get inside their base? Well, here’s our chance.”
Wang Yun’s mood shifted as he deciphered what Xiao Yanran had written on the wall. His expression relaxed, and a slight smile of relief appeared on his face, mingled with a hint of affection. Xiao Yanran had grown and changed so much, proving herself to be as smart as he hoped.
Yes, the symbol she drew was a heart. The necklace Wang Yun had given her and she renamed it “Love of Life” with the heart representing “love.” Clearly, Xiao Yanran was signaling Wang Yun, letting him know she was inside the headquarters and that he shouldn’t worry. She had everything under control.
This heart symbol drastically changed Wang Yun’s mood, his tone softening.
“What chance, Boss? Do you know how to get into their base now?” Little Gang asked urgently.
“Our previous plan was to use the slingshot to break the glass layer by layer and then throw grenades inside. But the observation room’s glass is bulletproof, making it difficult to break. Additionally, we can’t be sure which room they’re in. Even if we manage to throw grenades inside, it would be hard to hurt them and it would expose our position,” Wang Yun explained patiently, mostly for the audience watching the live stream.
“So what’s changed, Boss?” Prince asked anxiously from the rooftop.
“You’ll see soon enough,” Wang Yun replied, casually sitting on the balcony. He seemed more like he was there for a leisurely sightseeing trip than to take down a base. His relaxed demeanor left Brother Hu and the others confused. The tense night had suddenly shifted due to the appearance of a girl. It was as if Wang Yun’s focus was solely on her, with little regard for anything else. Despite their mounting questions, no one dared to challenge him. The boss always had his reasons.
“What! The people from the Oil Nation brought Xiao Yanran here?” In the tense atmosphere of the meeting room, a team member whispered something in Wu Mingyu’s ear, causing him to stand up in shock.
“Yes, Captain Wu, Xiao Yanran has been brought into the Oil Nation’s combat room,” the team member replied with a frown.
“Xiao Yanran? The fan that Wang Yun saved at the beginning? The one he gave the Life’s Brilliance necklace to?” Werner stood up, surprised.
The team member nodded vigorously. “That’s right. She just got out of the hospital a week ago, and her health has recovered. Three days ago, she was brought to Xiyun City by the Oil Nation people. Today, they brought her here.”
Bang! Usually calm, Werner slammed his hand on the conference room table, causing the water cups to tremble slightly.
“They’re playing with fire! They’re going to get us all killed!”
