Chapter 93: Sometimes I Really Don’t Want To Drag Him Anymore
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
At this moment, Huo Jiuxiao confirmed the answer in his heart.
It had been ten years. If it wasn’t for his mother’s dying wish, he wouldn’t have wanted to live anymore. The world was so dirty, and there were disgusting noises everywhere. Every second he breathed was unbearable. Had he finally reached the end?
If that was the case, Huo Jiuxiao put down his frown and gladly accepted what was about to happen. He had endured it for too long and had long wanted to be free. Other than those who were already dead, the rest had all betrayed him.
No, there was still Lin Wanli.
The woman who would run to him regardless of everything…
However, if he did not die, the Huo family’s schemes would be endless. In the end, it would only implicate his wife and daughter. It would be meaningless.
Since he was born in the abyss, he had never done anything regretful in his life. However, he had one thing now, and that was that he should not give Lin Wanli any hope.
“Do you have any last words?” The man in the lead asked Huo Jiuxiao in English.
“Jiuxiao… I’m sorry, Jiuxiao.” Lu Xunyan cried bitterly, even though he knew Huo Jiuxiao couldn’t hear him.
Huo Jiuxiao took a deep breath and took off his weapon, revealing a relieved expression. It was the calmness of death.
However, just as the man was about to give the order to kill, the forest on the left suddenly exploded. The loud sound was deafening, and the fire quickly dyed the sea red. The strong impact blew away the assassins who were lying in ambush nearby and also swept Huo Jiuxiao into it.
[Not good, the left side is a minefield. Someone is trying to move them there!]
Immediately after, Song Huaishu led Diheng’s men and drove up the dock, heading straight for the dilapidated yacht. The intense collision and the screams made the dock seem especially mournful.
[Look for Master Xiao!]
[Save Master Xiao! Hurry up!]
[Master Xiao was injured by an explosion.]
[There’s no time. Bring Master Xiao into the car.]
Huo Jiuxiao couldn’t hear the explosion of fire, or the sound of weapons colliding, and he couldn’t feel any pain. His world was filled with noisy people.
In order to escape, Song Huaishu brought Diheng’s men and drove straight into the sea. Escaping by sea was their only way out.
At eight o’clock in the morning, the weather cleared up and Yujing Peak was in a state of tranquility. Lin Wanli was making breakfast for Lin Xueyi and Youran in the kitchen when Song Huaishu called.
When Lin Wanli saw the words ‘Song Huaishu’, her mind wandered. The back of her hand accidentally touched the lid of the pot and instantly burned the back of her hand red.
Lin Wanli turned off the stove and picked up the phone in a daze. She answered the call, “Hey… Hello?”
“Madam, Master Xiao is in the emergency room.”
Lin Wanli’s eyes were suddenly filled with tears, but she didn’t cry. She held her phone with both hands and asked anxiously, “Where are you guys?”
“He was ambushed in Southeast Asia. Master Xiao was injured by an explosion and later soaked in the sea. His current situation is not looking good. Most importantly, he doesn’t have the will to survive, so we forced him back to
China. He’s now at Qiaohe Hospital. You…” “I’ll be right there.” Lin Wanli interrupted him.
“Then please come quickly.”
Song Huaishu’s tone had always been relaxed, but this time, it was so low.
Other than the fact that he was injured, it was because he really knew that Huo Jiuxiao did not want to live.
When he went to the dock, he could already tell that Master Xiao was there to prove Lu Xunyan’s betrayal. Once he confirmed it, it would be equivalent to destroying his hope of survival.
What did Master Xiao do wrong?
Was he going to be hurt time and again by his loved ones?
Song Huaishu looked at the words ‘Emergency Room’ and squatted on the ground. A burly man who was about 1.8 meters tall cried like a child.
After Lin Wanli took the call, she ran straight to Lin Xueyi’s guest room. Her eyes were red and she had just regained her composure from her panic. She said, “Mom, I have to go out for a while. In the morning, Yan Qiu will accompany you to Qin Huaijing to discuss the divorce.”
“Wanli, what happened?” Lin Xueyi wanted to grab her and ask, but Lin Wanli turned around too quickly.
“I’m fine.” After she finished speaking, Lin Wanli rushed out of the door. When she was going downstairs, she bumped into the stairs because she was in a hurry.
She didn’t tell anyone. She didn’t even have time to change her shoes. She grabbed her car keys and went straight to Qiaohe Hospital. It had been two years, and she had never been so scared before. Her hands that were holding the steering wheel were sweating and shaking.
She Imew she couldn’t stop Huo Jiuxiao, but she didn’t expect this day to come so soon.
However, she was in so much pain that she couldn’t breathe. Her heart felt like it was spasming, causing her body to subconsciously curl up, but she couldn’t care less.
In less than 20 minutes, Lin Wanli left the hospital and rushed straight to the emergency room without even parking the car.
“Madam…” When Song Huaishu saw her, he was also shocked. Not only was Lin Wanli wearing casual clothes, but she was also wearing slippers.
Lin Wanli grabbed Song Huaishu’s arm anxiously and angrily. It was a Lin Wanli that Song Huaishu had never seen before. She asked, “How’s he doing now?”
Song Huaishu lowered his head and sobbed. When he raised his head, he shook his head. He said, “The doctor said that it’s not looking optimistic. I don’t know how to save him. Madam, our mission has been completed. But… However, President Lu had betrayed him. It was President Lu who had set up an ambush for him. Master Xiao had risked his life for President Lu for so many years.
Why? How could he bear to betray Master Xiao?”
“All his loved ones either betrayed him or hurt him. So, Madam, sometimes I really don’t want to hold him back, but… I couldn’t bear to see him leave like this.”
Lin Wanli immediately cried out loud.
“But what can I do if you call me here? He can’t hear me no matter what I shout. Besides, can I hold him back? If I could, he wouldn’t have died so calmly. I’m useless.”
At this moment, Lin Wanli could not stop her tears from flowing.
What she said was what she was thinking.
Then, she walked to the door of the emergency room and leaned against the door, crying loudly.
[Huo Jiuxiao, you said that you would come back alive. You promised. How can you go back on your word? I know you want to be free, I know… I always knew… I know that living through every day is hard for you, but I still want you to stand in front of me, even if I can only give you a minute of happiness.]
[I’ve said it before. If you choose to leave and disappear from this world, I’ll announce our relationship as husband and wife. I don’t care what the world will do to me. I don’t care anymore… You can go back on your word, but I can’t.]
“Madam.” Song Huaishu saw that Lin Wanli was crying too sadly and helped her to her seat from the emergency room door. He said, “There are some things that Master Xiao has never said, but I feel that I should tell you.”
“I don’t know how much inside information you know about the Huo family. Up until now, ten years have passed, and those b*stards of the Huo family have been thinking of ways to make Master Xiao disappear from this world..”
