The people in the great hall were all discussing, and did not seem to care about Ling Xiaosu who was being held hostage.

Both of Ling Xiaosu's hands were being held behind her back, and the blood on his neck was slowly flowing, he simply could not stop it. Although Jasen did not cut open the artery on her neck with his blade, Ling Xiaosu did not feel any closer to death.

"Jason." Ling Xiaosu shouted in a weak voice as he turned to look at her.

Ling Xiaosu pulled open his dry lips, revealing a weak smile, and said: "No one will come to save me, look at the people below." As they discussed amongst themselves, no one paid attention to her, who was on the verge of death.

"Swish." Jasen cursed, and looked at Ling Xiaosu with his eyes filled with determination, "Since no one has noticed you, then there's no need for me to keep you here. Don't blame me for being ruthless, if you want to blame, then blame your Ni Tianchen for destroying me, so when Ling Xiaosu goes to hell, don't look for me."

Ling Xiaosu's heart made a "thump" sound, as he raised it up high. Breathing heavily, he asked: "What are you trying to do? I told you not to mess around, Jason. You have to think about it, you... "

"Shut up!" Jasen was too lazy to listen to what Ling Xiaosu had to say anymore. The hand holding the dagger exerted a little more force, and a deeper wound appeared on Ling Xiaosu's white and tender neck.

Ling Xiaosu opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but his throat seemed to be stuck, he was unable to say a single word.

Am I really going to die here? Had no one really noticed her? No!

Fear and suffocation attacked his brain at the same time. Ling Xiaosu closed his eyes with a pale face, waiting for the fatal cut on his neck.

One second, two seconds, three seconds … Ling Xiaosu slowly opened his eyes. The moment he did so, everyone in the hall cried out in alarm.

Ling Xiaosu opened his eyes in confusion, and saw the dagger that was originally pressed against his neck drop to the ground with a "ding" sound. The blade was stained with blood that glowed with a red light, and his hands were released all of a sudden.

"Ni Tianchen!"

It was unknown who shouted, but just as Ling Xiaosu wanted to follow the voice and look over, a pair of large, warm hands suddenly covered the wound on his neck. Ni Tianchen's incredibly familiar face appeared before his eyes.

"Alright, alright, everything is fine." Ni Tianchen hugged Ling Xiaosu and comforted him in a low voice while using one hand to gently cover the wound on his neck.

Even though her tone was very gentle and soothing, only Ni Tianchen knew the words that came out of her mouth to comfort Ling Xiaosu. Her lips were trembling, and her fingertips were trembling slightly.

Ni Tianchen did not dare imagine, if he had not rushed out and kicked that dangerous dagger out, what kind of appearance would Ling Xiaosu have right now?

Just by thinking about it with slightly closed eyes, it was already enough to drive Ni Tianchen crazy.

Ni Tianchen's fingertip gently trembled as he patted Ling Xiaosu's back. His voice trembled as he comforted, "It's fine, Xiaoxiao. Don't be afraid, it's fine."

The crowd below was discussing noisily, but Ling Xiaosu was not able to hear a single word of it. He only heard Ni Tianchen's soft and comforting words, and the pain in his neck seemed to not be as painful as before.

His back was being patted gently by Ni Tianchen, causing Ling Xiaosu to blink his eyes, as a warm liquid flowed out from his eye sockets. Before Ling Xiaosu could figure out what it was, his eyes had already reddened, and he grabbed onto Ni Tianchen's clothes while choked with sobs. Why did you come so late? Do you know how scared I was?

Ni Tianchen patted Ling Xiaosu's back and pulled Ling Xiaosu into his embrace. With a voice so soft that water could drip, he said, "It's alright, don't cry, don't cry. I'm here, I'm here, Xiaoxiao."

Ling Xiaosu casually shook her head and continued to cry in Ni Tianchen's embrace. Her tears fell down drop by drop onto the black shirt on Ni Tianchen's chest.

Inside the hall, Chu Xiaoran was watching this scene in shock. He opened his mouth and shouted in a daze: "Elder Brother Tianchen …"

Ling Xiaosu shrunk into Ni Tianchen's embrace, her eyes filled with tears. Her nose was filled with the sweet smell of cologne from Ni Tianchen's body, causing Ling Xiaosu's panicked and terrified heart to instantly calm down.

Seeing Ling Xiaosu cry so bitterly, Ni Tianchen's heart ached for her, but there were still more important things he needed to deal with.

"Xiaoxiao." Ni Tianchen shouted, but he did not dare speak too loudly, as he was afraid that he would scare Ling Xiaosu, "Your wound is still bleeding, let's go to the hospital to see a doctor first, alright?"

Ling Xiaosu nodded, his face still buried in Ni Tianchen's embrace, unwilling to raise his head.

Ni Tianchen frowned as he embraced Ling Xiaosu and walked away.

"Ni Tianchen!" Jasen who was lying on the ground saw that Ni Tianchen was about to leave, and shouted loudly: "Hypocrite! You, the hypocrite who ruined my career and my life, you … "

"I destroyed your career and your life?" Ni Tianchen coldly cut Jasen off, the gloominess on his face became even more dense, "It was you who destroyed yourself. If you had been obedient, and obediently stayed at the job you should have been at, you wouldn't have given birth to so many thoughts. Do you really think that the one who is going to fall to the ground right now would be you?"

"In the end, the person who destroyed you was only you. You can't blame others." Ni Tianchen held Ling Xiaosu tightly with his left hand, and his right hand had already been wet with the tip of his finger due to the fine blood on Ling Xiaosu's neck.

Jasen opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but Ni Tianchen did not have enough time to wait for him to speak, he had already pulled Ling Xiaosu away.

There was an ambulance waiting outside the hotel.

Ni Tianchen carried Ling Xiaosu and left. Chu Xiaoran watched as Ni Tianchen brushed past him and clenched his hands, before crying out loudly, "Brother Tianchen …"

"Pah!"

The moment those words left his mouth, Old Master Chu stretched out his hand and slapped Chu Xiaoran hard. Chu Xiaoran looked at him in shock.

Old Master Chu gave Chu Xiaoran a disgusted look, turned his head and said: "You're still saying that the man upstairs has nothing to do with you, saying that you're Miss Chu, and that you're the only one with the surname Chu among everyone here, and that Miss Chu wasn't calling you that, who else could it be?"

"Grandpa …" Chu Xiaoran instantly shed tears and explained while choking back her sobs, "I really don't know him, you misunderstood me."

"Now, I don't want to hear your explanation. Go and get someone to throw the man upstairs out, this is a banquet for your Second Uncle. I don't want anyone to cause trouble at this banquet." Old Master Chu was too lazy to look at his granddaughter again. After giving her orders, she turned around and spoke to her youngest son who was standing behind her.

Chu Xiaoran looked at Old Master Chu's back with a wronged expression. Seeing that Old Master Chu did not have any intention to bother with him, he clenched his teeth, endured the stares of everyone, went outside, and called security to bring Jasen out.

When Jasen slashed his dagger towards Ling Xiaosu's neck once again, he suddenly rushed forward and kicked at Jasen's abdomen with all his might. Even now, Jasen still felt pain in his abdomen.
