At this moment, Han Xuan’s heart stopped beating, and there was the sound of gunshots.
She totally did not see where Zhou Yao took out his gun at all. How did he shoot the bullets? When she regained her senses, the bullets brushed past her face and already hit the private doctor that was behind her.
The private doctor let go of her. “Ah!” she screamed out loud as she slumped down onto the floor. She touched her face. The power of the gun was too strong, and there was a bloody wound on her right cheek.
She was in a blur as she looked at the blood in her hands. She only had one thought: He actually opened fire?
He actually opened fire!
The private doctor looked over at Leng Zhiyuan as she ducked towards the side at the quickest speed possible, and at this moment, Zhou Yao had already shot the bullet once, and it hit the private doctor’s shoulders. The private doctor let go of Han Xuan before he stumbled a few steps back. A cliff was behind him, and he fell.
Everyone present on the scene heaved a sigh of relief. Everything had finally ended.
They were all shocked, but they were safe.
“Shoot!” A thin black rope was suddenly thrown up from the bottom of the cliff, and it was roped around Han Xuan’s neck directly.
Han Xuan did not even have the time to scream out loud, and she was about to be dragged off the cliff.
“Han Xuan!” Zhou Yao and Leng Zhiyuan dashed over towards her at the same time.
Leng Zhiyuan was very close, and at the edge of the cliff, she grabbed Han Xuan’s hand quickly, she took her left hand out to pull a sharp knife to cut the rope that was tied on Han Xuan’s neck, and she threw Han Xuan back.
The private doctor that was on the brink of death did not have the support of the rope anymore. “Ah!” He fell down into the depths of the cliff.
Leng Zhiyuan heaved a sigh of relief. She wanted to step back, but at this moment, the mud beneath her feet loosened up, and it was not even two seconds later that she fell down.
“Zhiyuan!”
The moment she dropped down, Zhou Yao’s low grunt rang out in her ears. He’d already rushed over to her side and was about to stretch his hand out to pull her, but he was running out of time, and the mud beneath her feet gave way.
Leng Zhiyuan could not stop falling downwards. Was she going to die now?
Was this her ending?
She never imagined that she would die from falling.
Leng Zhiyuan closed her eyes, and Zhou Yao’s handsome face appeared in her mind. The only pity was that time was short. It was such a pity that she had not spent time properly with him yet.
Suddenly, a muscular arm that held her slim waist, and her entire being was pulled into a warm embrace.
“Are you scared?” A familiar voice teased her from above.
Leng Zhiyuan froze. She opened her eyes quickly. It was Zhou Yao, and he’d jumped down together with her.
“Are you crazy?” She widened her eyes.
Zhou Yao lowered his gaze to kiss her forehead. He softly murmured, “How could I bear for you to be alone?”
At this moment, although she had a million things to say, she also did not know where to start. Her long eyelashes fluttered, then she closed her eyes, and two streams of tears that flowed out of the corners of her eyes.
She stretched her small hands out and hugged his sculpted waist tight.
As they quickly fell down the cliff, Zhou Yao lowered his gaze to have a look beneath him. His eyes had an excited glow in them. He held her slim waist tight, and he had a smile on his face as he said, “Hug me tight. We are going to land on the bottom.”
Leng Zhiyuan did not want to open her eyes to look. She only wanted to hug him and rely on him. They were together with one another when they were alive, and if they had to die, they would die together. Being able to die together with him, and with him treating her like that, she did not have any regrets even if she died.
She put her life in his hands.
The ground got closer and closer. Zhou Yao used his right hand to take out the metal chain that was around his waist, and he shook the metal chain hard and hooked it onto a rock. Both of their bodies tilted immediately and knocked against the rock by the side of the cliff.
Zhou Yao protected her in his embrace firmly, and his entire right side of his body knocked onto the rock with a bang!
Both of them came to a stop. Leng Zhiyuan felt warm drops of blood falling down onto her forehead. She wanted to open her eyes immediately, and at this moment, she heard Zhou Yao panting heavily as he smiled and said, “I am fine. Don’t open your eyes. The rock is unable to shoulder the weight of both of us. Let’s jump on three.”
After that, he continued to speak, and his tone was still normal. “Don’t be scared. I will hug you.”
Leng Zhiyuan did not have the chance to make a decision. Everything happened too quickly, and it was him who was taking control. The moment he spoke, he brought her as they jumped down together.
They were probably 10m up in the air. They did not fall, but they jumped. There was a large impact when they landed down on the ground Bang! When Leng Zhiyuan fell down to the ground, she felt her entire body break. Her blood flowed towards her brain, and she felt breathless immediately.
She forced herself to open a gap in her eyes, and there was a body beneath hers. When they jumped down, hee chose to land first,and protected her.
At this moment, Zhou Yao’s entire face was covered in blood. She could not tell where he was bleeding from. Leng Zhiyuan’s hands were trembling as she cupped his face. “Zhou Yao, Zhou…”
Her eyes closed, and she was also unable to persist any longer. She fainted immediately.
…
Leng Zhiyuan was in a blur as she opened her eyes. She turned her neck as she had a look around her surroundings. She was in a simple tiled roof house, and at this moment, she was lying down on a hard bed.
Where was she?
What about Zhou Yao?
As she thought about that man, she sat up quickly, her line of vision was a little blurry, and she used force to shake her head.
At this moment, the door was pushed open. An Auntie in her fifties walked over and said, “Young lady, don’t move. Although you are not hurt anywhere, the doctor said that it is better for you to recuperate for a few days.”
She knew her own body well. She did not have many problems. With him around protecting her, the injuries were all on his body. She said, “Aunty, were you the one you saved me?”
“It was my old man who found you two when he went to pick up wood, so he brought both of you back. We have already asked the doctor to come over to examine you two. Both of you have already slept for two days already.”
You two?
Leng Zhiyuan was elated, and she said, “Aunty, what about the man together with me? He is tall, strong, and very handsome.”
Aunty covered her mouth as she laughed. “Young lady, is he your lover?”
“Yeah yeah.” Leng Zhiyuan used strength to nod her head as she said, “He is my….husband.”
“Oh, it turns out that you have already gotten married. No wonder when my old man brought you two back, your husband’s hand was still around your waist. He would not let go no matter what.”
Leng Zhiyuan felt all sweet inside her heart, but she was even more worried, and she said, “Aunty, my… Where is my husband?”
“Look at how worried you are, young lady. Isn’t your husband right there?” Aunty pointed towards the other bed behind the curtains.
Leng Zhiyuan quickly got out of bed, and she pulled the curtains up as she walked over. Zhou Yao was lying down on the bed. His head and right hand were wrapped up in a thick layer of white gauze, and he was still in a coma.
Leng Zhiyuan stretched her hand out wanting to touch his wound, but she did not dare to do it.
“Young lady, your husband’s body is really strong. Even the doctor said that normal people would have long died when so badly injured, but his breathing is smooth, and all his vital signs are all doing well. His wounds are all recovering quickly. It is just that he has yet to wake up. Young lady, don’t be worried. You have already woken up, and your husband will probably wake up very quickly.”
“Okay, thank you, Aunty.” Leng Zhiyuan carefully held his left hand into her palm, she was extremely thankful right now. She thanked the heavens for allowing them to escape danger this time.
They have already escaped danger, and she believed that he would open his eyes in no time.
Zhou Yao…
She chanted his name silently inside her heart.
