Chapter 1251 - You Dont Like Me, But I Like You (2/2)

Of course, he couldn’t blame her. After all, she was just a young girl. Who wasn’t willing to listen to nice words in a life and death situation?

“Young Master Li, let Cen Xi come over. I’ll be your hostage.”

“Qiao Sen, why do I want you as a hostage? I only want Xiao Hei to be safe. I may be bad, but I’ll protect the woman I like with everything I have. I wouldn’t use her as a tool and treat her as nothing…”

Although Cen Xi was walking towards Qiao Yanze already, after hearing Young Master Li’s words, she felt extremely touched. She hesitated and Young Master Li used the opportunity to pull Cen Xi towards him. He held a dagger, holding Cen Xi hostage.

Cen Xi’s heart fell.

Young Master Li looked down, whispering by her ear, “Xiao Hei, don’t worry. I won’t hurt you, please believe me.”

Cen Xi couldn’t hear what he was saying, all she felt was her body turning completely cold.

Seeing Young Master Li pull Cen Xi towards the cliff, Qiao Yanze’s eyes turned cold. “You think that I wouldn’t take action because you have her as a hostage?”

Hearing Qiao Yanze’s words, Cen Xi’s eyes immediately turned red. She held the crossbow up, aiming at Qiao Yanze. “If you don’t do it, I’ll shoot you first!”

Everyone’s expressions changed.

No one had thought that Cen Xi would aim her crossbow at Qiao Yanze.

Qiao Yanze stared at Cen Xi, determination in her black gem-like eyes while her small face was tense and ashen.

The vein at the back of Qiao Yanze’s hand twitched, his handsome face extraordinarily cold. “Then let’s see who’s more capable!”

The moment he shot the bullet, Cen Xi’s crossbow wasn’t able to shoot the arrow out.

Everything seemed to have frozen in place.

A cold smirk appeared on her lips and she closed her eyes, waiting.

Just as she thought she would die, someone suddenly pushed her on the floor.

Young Master Li hugged Cen Xi as they rolled towards the cliff. Blood dripped from his lips. He smiled as he stared at Cen Xi in his arms.

“Remember, you don’t owe him anything. Don’t let him bully you anymore.” Young Master Li took out a jade thumb ring from his thumb. “I’ll give this to you. I know we’re not from the same world and you don’t like me, but I like you. Before I die, can you tell me your name?”

Cen Xi”s chest heaved up and down, the urge to cry overwhelming her. “I’m called Cen Xi.”

“Your name is really nice.”

Cen Xi watched as Young Master Li slowly slid down the cliff, reaching out to grab him on instinct. Young Master Li shook his head at her. “I’ll die even if you pull me up. Maybe, I might still live if I fall. Xiao Hei, remember my words. You don’t owe him anything. With how he’s treating you, he owes you instead. He will regret it one day!”

With that said, he let go of her hand and fell down the cliff.
