My Lady, To Defeat Scumbags You Must Start Early - Chapter 575
Chapter 575: Chapter 574: Luo Xiaolang, Please Survive (Second Update)
Nightfall.
Growing ever darker.
Everyone knows it’s the darkness before the dawn.
Perhaps the next second, the sky will break into light.
The day will be bright.
The brighter it gets, the easier we’ll be discovered, and the harder it will be to escape.
Luo Xiaolang has traveled a long way with the tracker’s bracelet. He estimates that if he throws it away, Song Zhizhi and the others won’t find it in time.
That’s what Luo Xiaolang is thinking.
Suddenly, there are gunshots in the woods.
Luo Xiaolang tenses up.
The gunshots are not far off.
Would they only shoot if they found something suspicious?
And right now, anyone suspicious could be one of us.
With no hesitation, Luo Xiaolang quickly places the bracelet on the top of a large tree, and then carefully approaches the source of the gunfire.
Using his hearing, he maintains a safe distance.
In that moment, it sounded like a familiar voice.
Then there was shouting. “Come and chase me, fuck, come on! Aren’t you going to kill me? Come on, come on!”
It was that idiot Yin Qin.
How could he be here?
Is he out of his mind?
With Yin Qin shouting, there’s a volley of gunshots in the woods, ceaseless and thunderous.
Luo Xiaolang grits his teeth.
She quickly climbs a tree and heads towards Yin Qin.
Yin Qin, at this moment, is running as if his legs are broken.
He had deliberately fallen behind. He couldn’t stand to see Luo Xiaolang die. He couldn’t let her die, so he went back to find him. He wanted to draw away some of them, at least Luo Xiaolang wouldn’t be so vulnerable then.
His legs are about to break from the running.
At this moment, he seems to have lost all feeling.
But that’s a good thing.
If you can’t feel anything, then you can’t feel pain.
With every bit of his being, he is determined to draw some of them away.
He doesn’t even know how many people are behind him, just that there are a lot of gunshots.
Maybe he’s just really lucky.
Despite the numerous gunshots, none have hit him.
He’s running around aimlessly in the woods.
He probably can’t run much longer.
Because a cliff suddenly appears before him.
Fuck.
Yin Qin stands on the precipice, staring into the abyss below. He can just make out the densely packed trees underneath.
The heavens want him dead.
The heavens are determined to destroy him!
He stands there, panting heavily.
He stops running.
The pursuers quickly catch up.
There must be a squad of 20 or 30, encircling him tightly.
A flashlight shines on him, and the leader of the group furrows his brows when he sees him clearly.
“Who are you?” The man asks coldly.
“And who the hell are you!” Yin Qin retorts. He knows he’s headed for death and decides to go out with a bang, fear vanishing in the face of imminent demise.
“Don’t test me, I’ll kill you!” The leader’s face darkens.
The air is thick with bloodlust.
Yin Qin momentarily fears, but thinking he’s about to die anyway, he steels himself.
“Go ahead, kill me. I didn’t plan on living through the night anyway,” he says.
“Where is Ji Baijian?” The leader cuts through the pointless banter.
The only reason they hadn’t killed Yin Qin during their chase was to extract information from him.
Otherwise, this man would already be dead a thousand times over under his gun.
“I would rather die than tell.” Yin Qin grins triumphantly.
He’ll piss off whoever he can before he dies.
“Believe me, I’m going to kill you right now!”
“No need for that. I’ll die on my own.” Yin Qin steps backward, staring downward into the darkness.
He doesn’t know what’s at the bottom.
But it doesn’t matter.
It doesn’t matter…
Either way, he’s going to die.
Better to take a gamble.
He suddenly leaps, plunging into the abyss.
At the same time,
A silhouette seems to drop from the trees, falling down right after him.
The squad leader rushes forward.
In the darkness, he couldn’t see what had just fallen from the tree. For all he knew, the bottom of the abyss was shrouded in darkness.
At the same time,
One of his men approaches. “We’ve been tricked. The tracker has been found. It’s in a large tree, but there’s no one around.”
“Damn it!” The squad leader curses. “Notify everyone to search! If they don’t find Ji Baijian, no one will survive!”
“Yes.”
The leader turned his head and looked again at the sheer cliff ahead. Jumping down from such a height wouldn’t spare lives easily, and they weren’t their main targets anyway, whether they lived or died didn’t matter.
At that moment, he left quickly with everyone else.
Below the cliff, at this moment.
Yin Qin thought he was going to die.
He didn’t know what had happened after he jumped. It seemed as if the trees below had broken his fall, it seemed as if he had been caught by something, it seemed as if he had finally fallen to the ground.
The moment he fell, his whole body was in pain, but not as much as he’d thought, it felt as if he was being protected by something.
He struggled to open his eyes, looking up at the sky, it seemed to be getting a little bit brighter.
Good.
He hadn’t died.
He was still alive.
He even managed to smile at that moment.
He grinned.
He thought he could now see Luo Xiaolang and there would be a chance to see her.
He moved his body.
Hmm.
There seemed to be something underneath him.
At this moment, he felt as if his entire body was disintegrating, but he was still trying hard to get up, determined to go back, and not to die here.
Having survived a fall from such a high cliff, he was sure he was not going to die.
With that thought.
He moved his body and finally sat up.
It took quite a while.
The light in the sky was now much brighter.
Yin Qin was sitting on the ground, panting heavily, he glanced down nonchalantly.
At that moment.
His entire body suddenly felt as if it had no air, he found himself unable to breathe.
He was looking at the person underneath him, the one he’d just had on top of him. It was a person.
The person was…Luo Xiaolang.
Her face was deathly pale, with injuries all over her body, terribly battered.
She lay still.
She was lying on the ground, as if she had stopped breathing.
At this moment, Yin Qin seemed to realize that he had been protected when he fell from above, he had been protected by Luo Xiaolang, protected, so that he was still alive, while she…
Yin Qin’s tears were falling uncontrollably.
But he didn’t dare to actually cry, didn’t dare to make any noise.
He was afraid that everything was real.
He hoped it was a dream, imagined by his detached soul.
Luo Xiaolang was somewhere else at the moment, Luo Xiaolang might still be on the run but she was alive and well, really alive.
Not as she was now, in front of his eyes, motionless.
Completely motionless.
He reached out.
His trembling hand, all covered in blood.
Even if he hadn’t died, his body was still bruised all over.
The hand he stretched out stiffened in mid-air.
No.
He didn’t dare to get close to Luo Xiaolang, he was afraid to touch her cold body.
He suppressed his great pain, his tears was flowing like a broken dam.
What if Luo Xiaolang was dead, what if Luo Xiaolang was dead…
Dead?!
She cannot die.
Luo Xiaolang, you cannot die.
“Xiaolang,” Yin Qin called her.
He called her gently.
Luo Xiaolang didn’t respond at all.
Really, no response at all.
“Xiaolang, please, can you not die? Please don’t die,” Yin Qin called out, called out her name over and over again.
Luo Xiaolang was still motionless.
Yin Qin was sobbing so hard he couldn’t speak, his throat was hurting terribly, he didn’t know how to mask his sorrow, he didn’t know how to endure the pain he was feeling now, he was just watching the motionless Luo Xiaolang, he kept watching her silently.
“Xiaolang, is it worth it to die for someone like me? I’m so pathetic, so worthless, my death would mean nothing, but your death, your death, is it worth it?” Yin Qin couldn’t handle it.
He really couldn’t handle it anymore.
He started crying out loud.
He dearly wished he would die instead.
And Luo Xiaolang would live, Luo Xiaolang would be alive and well.
He asked, “Luo Xiaolang, why did you come to save me, why… you hated me so much, why did you come to save me, I could die, but if you die, if you die, what would I do?! What about little tiger if you die?! You die… how could you die!”
Yin Qin cried his heart out.
He really didn’t know how to face this reality.
He didn’t know how he could bring Luo Xiaolang back.
“Please, come back to life, can you? Please stay alive, stay alive! Can I die instead? Can I?!” Yin Qin was completely broken down.
He felt extremely helpless.
Because he didn’t know how to keep Luo Xiaolang alive.
How to keep the 20-year-old Luo Xiaolang, somone who hasn’t enjoyed anything yet, alive.
“If you stay alive, I swear I will never bother you again, I won’t ever stand in your way towards Joe, I will bless you two, I will certainly bless you both, as long as you’re alive, as long as you’re alive, I will stay far away from you, far away from such a jinx like me…”
As long as you’re alive.
I’ll do anything.
As long as you’re alive…
