Chapter 106: Last Wish and Curse
Chapter 106: Last Wish and Curse
Zhong Suiru was about to stab Bai Shuiru in the chest with the sharp blade in her backhand, but the opponent was pushed away and protected by someone, just like the crazy assassination attempt made by Apia before.
Zhong Suiru was annoyed and asked:
"Hei Huo Mian, is Bai Shuiru so important to you?!"
"Hei Huo Mian, get out of the way!"
Bai Shuiru was stopped by Hei Huomian. She raised her hand to suppress the opponent's strong arm and tried to face the life-threatening man. However, the man was too strong. She could only glimpse from his side:
Zhong Suiru's body was shrouded in purple-black light. Her originally ferocious face that showed she wanted to eat flesh and blood instantly became filled with three parts of jealousy and seven parts of insight. The sharp blade in her hand stabbed at Hei Huomian's chest that was already stained with blood without hesitation.
"Fire Sleep!!"
Bai Shuiru tried her best to get out from behind Hei Huomian, and watched in horror as the man grabbed Zhong Suiru's right hand that was holding the knife, and slowly squatted on the ground.
"Huo Mian, Huo Mian, how are you?!"
"I'm fine, I'm fine, don't be afraid!"
Hei Huomian turned his head to look at Bai Shuiru, his eyes stopped her from moving forward, and signaled Li You to pull the other person away, "Don't come over here yet!"
Seeing that Heihuo Mian was fine, Bai Shuiru followed Li You's instructions and took two steps back. Only then did he see clearly that Zhong Suiru actually grasped Heihuo Mian's right hand with her left hand, forcing him to turn the dagger in her right hand and stab it into her own chest.
After all, she couldn't bear to harm him.
Bai Shuiru had just put aside her worry for Hei Huomian, and now she was worried about Zhong Suiru. She murmured, "Zhong Suiru, why would you..." and then unconsciously stepped forward.
"Sui Ru! Sui Ru!"
Zhong Xichu hurried forward to support his daughter, and turned back to call out to the medical staff who had already pushed the mobile bed into the hall:
"1/2/0, doctor, please save my daughter!"
Zhong Suiru bit her lower lip and pushed Zhong Xichu away with all her strength. At the same time, she glared at Liao Minrou who was standing there, and sneered:
"I'm not your daughter, I don't need your pity!"
As she spoke, the purple-black light that originally surrounded Zhong Suiru flickered for a moment, then dimly disappeared. She then staggered and fell to the ground, like a person on crutches whose support was suddenly taken away.
Hei Huomian subconsciously reached out to support Zhong Suiru, his brows furrowed into a mountain, and he was about to hand the person over to medical staff for rescue.
Zhong Suiru desperately grabbed his arm and pleaded softly:
"Huo...Mian, Huo Mian, look at me...Isn't I good?"
"I'm about to... die. Look... at me. Take one last... look at me."
"You should see a doctor."
Hei Huomian's expression became increasingly indifferent. He pried open her fingers and quickly helped her towards the medical staff, then turned and walked towards Bai Shuiru.
Hei Huomian held Bai Shuiru in his arms, patted her back gently for a while, then raised his hand to stroke her cheek, coaxing her softly:
"I'm fine, don't be afraid."
Bai Shuiru grabbed Hei Huomian's vest and looked him up and down. Only after she was sure that he was not injured again did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"Huo Mian, Hei...Huo Mian!"
"I'm going to see her."
Hei Huomian could see the determination in Bai Shuiru's eyes and eyebrows, so he nodded and took her in his arms and walked forward together.
Seeing the two of them acting so intimately, Zhong Suiru did her best to shake off the medical staff, pushed Hei Huomian away with both hands, and suddenly grabbed Bai Shuiru's arm, pulling it close to her ear. In a voice that only the two of them could hear, she said like a curse:
"Bai Shuiru, as long as I die..."
Bai Shuiru was suddenly startled, and just as she was about to ask more questions, she was dragged away from Zhong Suiru.
Bai Shuiru looked back and saw Hei Huomian frowning and staring at her. He shook his head:
"There's no need to get close to her."
Bai Shuiru was a little confused. She nodded slowly and subconsciously turned to look at Zhong Suiru.
"Huo Mian, Huo...Mian, look at me... again, look at me... for the last time."
Without the protection of the mysterious purple-black light, Zhong Suiru looked particularly weak, like a dying flower, drooping and withering.
Bai Shuiru couldn't help but look at Hei Huomian, biting her lower lip and hesitating for a moment, before opening her lips and begging softly:
"Fire sleep..."
"You really want me to do this?"
Before she could finish, his brows furrowed further, but he still took over the conversation and tried to confirm it.
Bai Shuiru looked at Hei Huomian and nodded, "Is it okay?"
Although I don’t understand why I want to fulfill Zhong Suoru’s wish, it seems that at this moment, if she is satisfied, I will also be happy.
Why is that?
"As long as it's your wish."
Hei Huomian hugged Bai Shuiru tightly and briefly, then turned and walked to the mobile bed, looking down coldly at Zhong Suiru who was in the state of bleeding and rescue.
Seeing that her lover was finally willing to look at her, Zhong Suiru pushed the medical staff away and struggled to get up.
"Put me down... a little! I want to lean on... your arms!"
Hei Huomian frowned and turned back to look at Bai Shuiru:
After receiving a nod and pleading look from his beloved, he tightened his face even more and slowly helped Zhong Suiru up, half leaning her in his arms.
Hei Huomian held his chin high from beginning to end, and didn't want to give the other person any extra glances.
Zhong Suiru looked up with difficulty, sniffing the faint scent of agarwood on the man's body beneath the thick smell of blood, and laughed out loud as she got what she wanted:
"Bai Shuiru, I, Zhong Suiru, have finally defeated you! I can die in the arms of the man I love!"
She suddenly vomited blood while laughing wildly, and a line of red at the corner of her lips made her face, which was bleeding, look even paler.
"But you...you, may not...get what you want!"
Zhong Suiru looked up at Hei Huomian and tried to reach out to him with her blood-stained hand, but he dodged her in disgust and handed her over to the medical staff.
Zhong Suiru looked at the couple snuggling together and smiled sadly. Finally, a tear fell from the corner of her eye and her arm fell onto her crimson gauze dress, and she died.
Bai Shuiru frowned and sighed as she looked at Zhong Suiru, who was lying on the bed and being defibrillated by medical staff. She was dazed for a moment:
It was as if the dying person whom Hei Huomian hugged with his eyes lowered in sorrow was actually... himself!
Bai Shuiru suddenly came to her senses and was shocked to see the verdict appearing above Zhong Suiru's head and the scroll slowly unfolding. She was startled and turned back to call for emergency personnel, but suddenly her eyes closed and she fainted.
"Shui Ru? Shui Ru?! Bai Shui Ru! Jing Chu Ran! Doctor!"
"Sui Ru... Shui Ru?!"
The urgent shouts penetrated the banquet hall which had just briefly regained its calm, and echoed throughout the Sucong Manor.
"So, they will finally be together."
"If they're still not together after all this, then Mu Xian is really useless!"
A drone was spying on what was happening in the ballroom of the manor from afar, then retreated into a spiral of dark purple light and melted into charred debris. Before falling to the ground, it was blown away by the night wind.
