However, Qin Chu didn’t let Xiang Yi Mo finish her sentence. Or, even if she had finished her sentence, what would have happened?
Listen, will Qin Chu believe it? He won’t believe her.
He even asked Xiang Yi Mo in response, “So you’re not feeling well, so you can push others?”
“Not feeling well?” Qin Chu seemed to remember something and repeated it with sarcasm. He felt it was ridiculous. “How many times do you want to use such lame excuses and tactics?”
A flash of disgust swept across the man’s face.
“Xiang Yi Mo, you really disappoint me.”
He uttered these words. Not planning to waste time with Xiang Yi Mo out of concern for Qi Yan’s injuries, he carried Qi Yan and left in big strides.
He ignored Xiang Yi Mo, who was running after his back in a fluster and falling to the ground to try to hold him back bitterly.
The ground was cold, and there were whispers in her ears.
“Elder Brother Chu, don’t go. I didn’t lie to you. I was really feeling too unwell. I really didn’t, I….”
When Lu Wang Chen arrived, he saw this scene.
He was a few metres away from her.
He raised his eyes to notice the commotion in front of him but only saw the back of Qin Chu carrying someone in the distance, and the little girl he had placed on the tip of his heart was surrounded by people talking about her.
The little girl was actually sitting on the ground like a walking corpse without a soul and muttering under her breath.
“Don’t go. I didn’t. It wasn’t me… (Whimper)” Like a small, badly wounded beast, she suppressed her tears.
Fuck, what had happened?
As he recalled Qin Chu’s back just now, he thought that this incident could not be unrelated to Qin Chu. Qin Chu…
There was the sound of something cracking in his heart.
Damn it, if I had come a little earlier!
The bottom of Lu Wang Chen’s eyes darkened.
He suppressed the hostility and ran towards Xiang Yi Mo, not far away.
At that moment, Xiang Yi Mo, who had fallen to the ground, was even paler. Her body had an indescribably weird feeling.
How strange. There was some discomfort in my chest when I was giving an amazing performance… Could it be that whatever she said came true?
As Xiang Yi Mo thought of this, the unexplainable discomfort grew stronger and stronger in her body as she found her heart racing uncontrollably. Then, it suddenly exploded.
Her throat felt ticklish inexplicably, and she subconsciously raised her hand to cover her mouth to cough and gag. A fishy sweetness spread in her mouth.
Her palm was hot and wet, and the smell of blood hit her nose without warning, stimulating every nerve.
The liquid that came out of her mouth seemed so hot that even her hands could not cover it as it scrambled to escape through the cracks in her slender fingers.
Xiang Yi Mo was dumbstruck and moved her hand away in dismay.
She saw a puddle of blood in the palm of her fair hand. Her mouth was open. Blood was still flowing out of the corner of her mouth, trickling down her jaw and falling onto the blood that had spilt out of her palm.
Random drops fell on her skirt.
Driblets after driblets, it was absorbed into the pink fabric, making it vibrant and blinding.
Her peach blossom pupils shrank tremendously, and she shuddered violently.
Eh?
Why is my mouth… bleeding?
Xiang Yi Mo’s mind blanked out. She saw a shadow fall in front of her and looked up mechanically in a daze.
Her eyes were flushed. In an instant, her eyes went out of focus, reflecting an overly shocked handsome face, or even, it could be said that the bottom of his eyes was filled with fear.
“Lu… Wang Chen.”
With blood in her mouth, she struggled to utter his name before both eyes went black.
Before losing consciousness, she seemed to see the man leaning down flusteredly and holding her in his arms.
As Lu Wang Chen embraced her, the scent of cedar instantly diffused into her nose. The buzzing ears also finally could hear—
