Chapter 1252 - Meeting Like That (1/2)

Cen Xi lay sprawled by the cliff, watching as Young Master Li fell down the black abyss, disappearing from her sight. Her eyes immediately turned red.

She didn’t know why she would be so sad…

Young Master Li was an international criminal, so there was no way he was going to live. He had too many lives in his hands, so even dying a million times was something he deserved.

However, she was actually moved by him blocking the bullet from her.

Young Master Li probably knew very well that she merely used him, doing anything she could to hear about the base when she was still Xiao Hei.

They weren’t from the same world. He knew very well that she wouldn’t have any feelings for him, but he still risked his life to come and meet her and even took a bullet for her in a life and death situation.

And what about the person she had feelings for?

He didn’t hesitate to shoot her at all!

However, could she say he was wrong for it?

No!

He had to avenge his family while carrying the mission for the country. Showing mercy to an international criminal was against his principles and righteousness.

It was only sacrificing her, someone who was nothing, so why shouldn’t he?

Cen Xi closed her eyes, holding onto the jade thumb ring Young Master Li gave her tightly. Two warm streaks of tears trailed down her face.

Qiao Yanze walked towards Cen Xi, his large hand holding her arm as he pulled her up. He looked at her with furrowed eyebrows. “Go back with me first.”

The Defense Minister walked over, speaking with a dark expression, “Young Master Qiao, get your men to look for Young Master Li’s body along the cliff. I will bring this lady back for investigation. She aimed her bow at you while the criminal also took a bullet for her, so I think that she might be something.”

Qiao Yanze said coldly, “There is nothing wrong with her. If she didn’t shoot an arrow at Young Master Li’s wrist, we might all have died here in an explosion!”

“Butー”

Before the Defense Minister could finish speaking, a cold voice rang. “I’m willing to be brought back for an investigation.”

Qiao Yanze’s handsome expression darkened, his pretty eyes narrowing with an unreadable expression. “Have you thought it through?”

Cen Xi looked up, meeting Qiao Yanze’s eyes. Her eyes were exceptionally dark and calm. “Yes.”

She would rather be taken away for investigation than go back with him. After a heart turned completely cold, it would be extremely hard to warm it up again.

Maybe, there wasn’t a need to warm it again. Tonight’s incidents were like a hammer, smas.h.i.+ng into her.

It was time to wake up. All of her feelings towards him before were too unrealistic.

She had always loved herself. It was probably enough to let herself be stepped all over like this for her sister, right? She has done enough.

No longer looking at him, Cen Xi followed the Defense Minister onto the car.

Qiao Yanze stared at the SUV that slowly drove away. His heart suddenly tightened, his eyes suddenly turning red. As his grip on the gun tightened, a feeling of helplessness grew in his heart.

Why was he panicked?

How could he be so anxious?

He wasn’t wrong in doing this!

She was Xiao Ying’s younger sister and she was repaying for her sister’s sins willingly. He was already being very merciful by sparing her life!

Why would he care about her feelings?

Qiao Yanze closed his eyes, the sight of her calm and cold eyes when she left appearing once more. It was as if she wouldn’t have any emotions again.

Qiao Yanze shook his head. When he opened his eyes again, he was a lot calmer.
