Chapter 330 - Fall off the Cliff—Xuetong in the Deathtrap (1/2)
Mo Xuetong’s figure fell down.
Suddenly, a figure in white ran faster to hold Mo Xuetong who was das.h.i.+ng to the ground. He stretched out his hands to hold up Mo Xuetong and was about to fall to the gra.s.s on the left.
However, the shaft of the carriage was broken unexpectedly. As it shook violently, the broken carriage lost its balance and leaned to the left. Then, it crashed into the man in white who just stood well. The carriage broke up instantly. The man in white did not expect the accident and was knocked back to the cliff.
“Young Master, let go!” Lin Yu shouted hurriedly. Because with the Master’s martial arts skills, he was able to jump up easily if he did not hold anyone else.
The back of the carriage also fell off the cliff. A heavy thudding noise with the crack sounded against the rock cliff.
A huge crack accompanied by Lin Yu’s scream spread to the ears of Mo Xuemin and Mo Xuetong who were in the front half of the carriage. The two were frozen in horror just now, but at that moment, they yelled as they collected themselves. Then, the carriage crashed into the tree heavily. Before they could yell as loudly as possible, they went faint together.
In front was a huge wall of rock, everywhere b.u.mpy. “Where is it?” It seemed to be a cave. Mo Xuetong stared blankly at the handsome face in front, unable to identify it was reality or illusion. She closed her eyes, and things rolled up like a windmill. Mo Xuemin’s brutal face, Mo Xueqiong’s jealous and vicious facial expression…
The hairpin stabbed into her fingers and brought the pain piercing to the bone, as if she could see Mo Xuemin’s brutality and coldness. Mo Xuetong shrank her fingers subconsciously, but pains surged up like a tide. She could not help letting out a moan.
“How are you feeling now? Does it still hurt?” The gentle and elegant voice was right in the ear with strong penetrating power. Mo Xuetong opened her eyes again uncontrollably.
The beautiful young man in white with slightly disheveled hair appeared in front of her, and she looked at him, puzzled. Even in such an embarra.s.sing situation, he still wore a gentle and elegant smile without a trace of anger. His bright eyes were fixed on her as gentle as water, mixed with tender affection.
It turned out to be Bai Yihao!
Mo Xuetong then remembered that her last memory stayed on Bai Yihao’s unparalleled and beautiful face!
“Where is it?” Mo Xuetong struggled to sit up. But she just moved her fingers, and then she felt piercing pain to the heart. Her hands felt weak and she fell down involuntarily again. Then, a long and thin hand that resembled jade stretched out to hold her and helped her lean against the rock beside.
“This is a small cave under the cliff. I don’t have much energy now, and let’s go up when I recover myself.” Bai Yihao smiled softly. His eyes fell on Mo Xuetong’s tightly-wrapped fingers. A deep chill flashed in his eyes. Almost, just almost, he was about to lose her.
He had never had such a feeling before, as if the most important thing in his life were about to disappear. Bai Yihao almost broke away from the carriage, jumped down and hugged her tightly. A NARROW RESCUE! He felt his calm and bland heart was almost about to pop out of his mouth.
That’s why he was too fl.u.s.tered to notice the situation under his feet and was knocked down by the carriage and fell off.
He did hear Lin Yu’s voice, but he just subconsciously hugged the fainted woman more tightly in his arms. How could he abandon her?
“Are you injured?” Mo Xuetong blinked her watery eyes and noticed his shoulders in the white s.h.i.+rt where b.l.o.o.d.y color bloomed.
“A little.” Bai Yihao smiled and nodded, tearing off the broken white s.h.i.+rt on his shoulder directly.
Mo Xuetong looked at her tightly-wrapped fingers and the other hand stamped by Mo Xuemin. The wounds had been carefully treated. But the hand was swollen, and any move or bend could bring pains as great as the tightly-wrapped hands. Mo Xuemin did stamp on Mo Xuetong with all her might.
Her eyes fell on the hem of his white robe, and it seemed to be torn off several pieces of cloth. The color was the same as that of her fingers’ bandage.
She sighed softly. No matter how wary she was of Bai Yihao, she was really grateful to Bai Yihao at that moment. Without him, Mo Xuetong would have been killed by Mo Xuemin again. If so, how could she die in peace? As for the blood vengeance between her and Mo Xuemin, Mo Xuetong was willing to return with her own hands.
“Let me take a look, okay?” She raised her head with a smile and supported herself to sit up with palms carefully instead of fingers.
Bai Yihao went blank and then nodded with a smile. He turned around a bit painstakingly. His blood-stained back stunned Mo Xuetong. His injury was more severe than she had thought. No wonder he just sat there without any words or any thought of going up.
His back blended against the light outside, which dazzled Mo Xuetong’s slightly apathetic eyes.
She stretched out her hands to take away the scatter of pieces. Some of the broken cloth had been stuck to the wounds on the back. Mo Xuetong’s swollen hands trembled and moved away the pieces of cloth with great care. She clenched her lips to hear the sound of tearing cloth strips from the flesh with fear.
After tearing them all down, Mo Xuetong thought for a while and turned over her dress, ready to tear off the white cloth skirt inside.
With a hissing sound, a clean cloth came from the front and a voice rang. “Don’t tear your skirt. Use this.”
Mo Xuetong took the cloth strips silently and cleaned the wounds one by one gently.
Bai Yihao turned his back on her, so she did not know his facial expression. But not knowing why, Mo Xuetong could feel that he was smiling. The man was really an iron emperor, even ruthless to himself.
“If it hurts, you can scream. There is no one else here.” Sensing his tremor, Mo Xuetong said in a soft voice and cleaned more carefully.
It was very quiet in the cave, and they two breathed slightly. Although Bai Yihao didn’t look back, his heart was filled with an upsurge of emotion like overturning rivers and seas.
He had never thought that he would really fall in love with this woman. In the past, he thought he just cared about her, cared about her happiness, sadness, injuries and so on… However, these could not compare to grand ambition. Therefore, even if the engagement paper had gone, he was just sad for a while and never really looked for it.
