Wooing my Bodyguard Wife

"FUCK YOU SUN JINGWEI!" Wei Yan yelled, but the sheep was so fluffy that it absorbed all his screams. It shifted around his face, its hooves stepping all over his collarbones and neck, causing him to wheeze. Finally he was going to be released from this suffering!

He spoke too soon. The sheep merely found a more comfortable position to settle into, much like a cat sleeping on its owner's face. Now Wei Yan found his face next to its ass! He breathed in, gagging at the foul smell. Why didn't his sense of smell vanish with his broken nose?

Of course, everyone else didn't understand how much Wei Yan was suffering. All they could hear was some muffled noises from under the sheep. Jingwei only slung an arm around Xue Ning and tucked her close to him, laughing at Wei Yan's suffering.

Meanwhile, Zhong Qing and Luo Lan saw this and vowed to never cross Sun Jingwei. He wasn't a murderer, but he was way worse - he was someone who thrived off their humiliation and despair, all while still being hopelessly whipped for his wife!

His other two companions who were similarly tied up with bandages wrapped around their heads, thanks to their missing eyes, merely closed their one remaining eye. They pretended not to see, since they wanted to live long enough to receive medical care!

In the meantime, Ming Guang arrived with the luggages. He took one look at his new mode of transport and sighed heavily. He was a respected bodyguard of a rich man. How did he end up riding with a herd of noisy smelly sheep?

Nevertheless, he quickly made his way on the truck, stacking the luggages neatly in the corner that looked the least dirty, carefully trying to avoid the curious sheep that continued to dog his heels.

At least he had the knife to comfort him. It was the only thing keeping him sane at this point. As Ming Guang sat at Sun Jingwei's other side, he held it tightly in his hands, nearly cradling it to his chest.

"Ming Guang, give back my knife." Yue Niang demanded, knocking on the side of the truck. The herd of sheep startled and began bleating in protest. Ming Guang nearly joined them, before he remembered that he was a grown man, not a child throwing a tantrum.

"Yes Madam." Ming Guang said reluctantly, handing it over. He looked wistfully at it as it left him, for Yue Niang tucked it back into her sheath before riding shotgun. Li Tai Cheng was of course the driver.

"Wait, where's my brother and sister-in-law?" Xue Ning asked. They weren't on the truck!

"Oh, they're taking Jingwei's car to the airport." Her father replied cheerfully. "Xin Yu is allergic to wool."

Wei Yan let out an outraged shriek at the news. Just great. There was a perfectly usable car, yet he was stuck on a truck? With a sheep's ass in his face? Where was the justice!

Unfortunately for him, no one gave a shit. Except the sheep, who nuzzled him lovingly.

"Is everyone comfortable? Got everything you need?" Tai Cheng asked. "We're setting off now!"

"Yes Sir!" Jingwei replied enthusiastically, holding Xue Ning's hand. "We're good to go!"

"Alright," Tai Cheng smiled indulgently, and started the truck. It roared to life with a loud purr, and they began their slow steady drive to the airport. The countryside roads were bumpy, riddled with potholes that weren't filled in due to the lack of budget.

"Wow this is fun!" Jingwei commented after a series of intense bumps. Everyone else just stared at him like he was insane, their faces in varying shades of green thanks to motion sickness. "This is just like an amusement park ride!"

"Please don't talk." Xue Ning begged. "If you do, I'll need to respond and I can't talk right now. I want to vomit."

Jingwei immediately kept quiet, but not without rubbing Xue Ning's back in slow calming circles in a bid to soothe her nausea. His poor wife did look a bit too pale and sickly for her own good.

(Part of him couldn't help but think if Xue Ning was pregnant and suffered from morning sickness, wouldn't she suffer like this too? Oh dear. He had to fund research to make sure he got the morning sickness instead.)

Thankfully, things got better when they arrived at the main road. As there was little to no traffic, it was a breeze to drive through. No one was going to care about one pick-up truck filled with sheep. Xue Ning even fell asleep on Jingwei's shoulder as the hours went on.

While everyone dozed off, Xue Ning's parents remained wide-eyed and alert. They didn't want to be followed! Yue Niang held the phone of the operatives in her hand, wondering if she should still launch the bait as per her initial plan.

"Don't do it, wife," Tai Cheng advised, catching the look in her eyes. "We promised Captain Mu to listen to him this once."

"Captain Mu, can't believe this brat dared to tell you what to do," Yue Niang scoffed. "Technically you're his senior."

Tai Cheng shook his head, and they continued the drive in wary silence. The sky darkened further.  They arrived at the airport just as the first of the sun's rays illuminated the sky. Due to the early hour, there was no obstruction when the truck pulled into the empty airport runway, where Sun Jingwei's retinue was already standing at attention.

Captain Mu was waiting impatiently at the airport runway ready to escort Sun Jingwei and his companions to his private plane, only to be utterly gobsmacked at the sight of a huge pickup truck stopping in front of him.

Before he could demand it to be moved away, he heard a chorus of pleading bleats from inside.

What on earth!

"Hi Captain Mu!" Sun Jingwei greeted cheerfully as he helped his sleepy wife down from the truck. "Good morning! Can you guys help get our kidnappers from the truck? There are four of them in total."
