Chapter 332: Redemption of the Bone Scraper
After saying this, Xia He's cheeks instantly turned red.
She didn't even dare to look Su Chen in the eye.
She knew this was her last bargaining chip.
When Su Chen heard this, he was stunned at first, then he smiled slightly.
"Become my woman?"
"Do you think you have the qualifications?"
Xia He's body trembled violently, and her face became even paler.
Tears rolled in the eyes.
She knew that she had lost the bet.
"but……"
Just when Xia He felt desperate, Su Chen suddenly changed the subject.
"Since you are still trustworthy, I can give you a chance."
Xia He raised her head suddenly, her eyes full of disbelief.
"Chance?"
she muttered.
Su Chen's steps suddenly stopped, and he turned around slowly.
His eyes were as sharp as torches, staring straight at Xia He.
That look seemed to be able to penetrate layers of fog and reach the most secret corners of people's hearts.
Xia He felt nervous when he looked at her, and she unconsciously clenched her fists.
The nails dug deep into the palms, causing bursts of stinging pain.
But she forced herself to raise her head and meet Su Chen's gaze, not daring to retreat in the slightest.
She knew that this moment might determine her future destiny.
"You know, everywhere leads to that side, but I hate you to the core."
Su Chen spoke, his voice low and cold.
Every word was like a sharp knife, stabbing straight into Xia He's soft spot.
There was no warmth in his words.
There was only endless coldness, as if it was going to freeze the air around.
"You were previously listed as the most wanted criminal by Nadutong. Almost all the top officials wanted to catch you."
Su Chen continued, his eyes as sharp as an eagle's, fixed tightly on Xia He.
"Aren't you afraid that you'll be locked up and lose your freedom once you return to Nadutong?"
When Xia He heard this, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes.
But soon, that trace of confusion was replaced by a sense of calmness.
She sighed softly, her voice was faint, but revealed a helpless relief:
"Losing freedom is better than dying..."
There was a hint of self-mockery in her tone, as if she felt extremely ironic about her current situation.
Yes, she was once the "bone scraper" that everyone in the universe feared.
It is an existence that countless strangers tremble in fear of.
She enjoys the pleasure of controlling the fate of others.
Thinking he could get away with it forever.
But now, she is like a lost dog.
Having to run around to survive,
Even to the point of seeking refuge from a former enemy.
"At least there is hope while we are alive."
Xia He's voice was so low that it was almost inaudible, but there was a hint of stubbornness in her tone.
She bit her lips tightly, and her nails left deep marks on her palms.
She told herself that she had to live no matter what.
Only by living can you have the opportunity to change your destiny.
Su Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and stared at her deeply, as if thinking about her words.
His sharp eyes seemed to be able to see through all disguises.
Go straight to the essence of people’s hearts.
Xia He felt a little uncomfortable when he looked at her, and she unconsciously avoided his gaze.
Lower your head and look at your toes.
After a moment, Su Chen spoke coldly:
"It is better to be alive than dead,
But if you follow me, you will only have more trouble, not less."
His voice was still cold, without any emotion.
Xia He raised her head and looked directly into Su Chen's eyes, with a hint of determination in her eyes:
“I know it’s dangerous to follow you, but I have no choice.
If I don't follow you, I won't even be able to survive."
She gritted her teeth, with a hint of pleading in her voice:
"Su Chen, I don't ask for anything, as long as I can survive.
Even if it means death, I am willing to give it a try."
Su Chen was silent for a while, and the coldness in his eyes gradually dissipated.
Instead, there was a hint of deep thought.
He looked at Xia He's face which was full of stubbornness and unwillingness, and felt a subtle touch in his heart.
This woman, although once his enemy,
But her courage and determination made him look at her with new eyes.
"As you wish."
He finally said only three words, and there was no emotion in his voice.
Xia He heaved a sigh of relief when she heard this.
The corners of his mouth forced a smile.
"Thank you."
She whispered, with a sincerity in her voice that she had never heard before.
Su Chen didn't look at her again, turned around and continued walking forward.
His tall figure looked particularly lonely in the afterglow of the setting sun.
The Nine-tailed Fox chuckled silently from its sea of consciousness.
With a bit of joking and playfulness:
"Master, this girl is quite interesting and courageous."
Su Chen did not respond, but just slightly quickened his pace.
He knew he had made a dangerous decision, but he had no regrets.
Xia He looked at his back, with a complicated emotion in her heart.
This man is like a mystery, hard to figure out.
He is powerful, cold, and ruthless.
Yet, inadvertently, a hint of imperceptible tenderness was revealed.
What kind of person is he?
Xia He didn't know, but she knew,
This man may be her last chance.
She clenched her fists and followed silently, with a hint of determination in her eyes.
No matter how dangerous the road ahead is, she has made up her mind:
To survive, you have to risk everything.
"Master, do you really want to take this woman with you?"
The voice of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox sounded again in Su Chen's sea of consciousness, with a hint of doubt and worry.
"She is a quanxing person after all. What if she..."
"I know."
Su Chen interrupted her, his voice calm and firm,
"But I trust my judgment."
"But……"
The Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox wanted to say something but was interrupted by Su Chen again.
"Xiaobai, you just need to do your own thing."
There was a hint of unquestionable majesty in Su Chen's voice.
"As for other matters, I know what to do."
"Ok."
The Nine-Tailed Fox sighed helplessly, with a hint of pampering in his voice.
"Who made you my master?"
Su Chen didn't say anything else, just walked forward silently.
His gaze was deep and distant, as if he could penetrate the layers of fog and see the direction of the future.
Xia He followed him closely, feeling anxious and worried.
She didn't know where Su Chen would take her, nor did she know what would be waiting for her.
But she knew that she had no way out.
She could only choose to believe Su Chen, this mysterious and powerful man.
"Su Chen, where are we going?"
Xia He couldn't help but ask, with a hint of uneasiness and curiosity in her voice.
Su Chen didn't answer, but just kept walking forward.
His steps were firm and powerful, as if nothing could stop him.
Seeing this, Xia He had no choice but to follow him closely.
She secretly looked at Su Chen's back, her heart full of doubts and speculations.
Where is this man going? What is his plan?
"Master, are you really planning to take her back to Nadutong?"
The voice of the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox sounded again in Su Chen's sea of consciousness.
"That's a troubled place, aren't you afraid..."
