When Nie Zilong heard the news that Hua Qianlou had been killed, a hint of happiness surfaced on his face. He leaned his body against the sofa and stroked his shiny, clean lower jaw with his slender fingers.
”Hua Qianlou, I can't believe that your life is that tough!” Nie Zilong said to himself. Then, with a clap of his hands, a curvaceous and flirtatious woman walked out of the other door. She sat on Nie Zilong's body without any trace of politeness and started teasing him.
Dusk approached. The sunset lit up an abnormally bright red color, as dazzling as blood. The drizzling rain from before had completely stopped, and the air was mixed with the scent of grass, wood, and earth.
A drop of rain dripped from the tree leaves onto Wang Shilin's pale face, stimulating her nerves. She struggled to open her eyes. The intense pain from her back made her cry out uncontrollably.
If she hadn't been blocked by a giant log tree, she would have long since fallen into the thorny abyss below.
Other than the bruises on her back and the cut from the tree branches, her limbs were still considered healthy. Although the wound was still bleeding, it was not life-threatening.
When she was pushed down by Hua Qianlou, her mind was completely blank and her only intuition was to have her body smashed into pieces. She never thought that she would have any hope of surviving.
He calmed himself down a little. That's right, where is Hua Qianlou? Didn't he jump down as well?
Wang Shilin carefully supported the tree and stood up. The terrain was fairly stable at this position. As long as there were some supporting points, it would not be too dangerous.
He looked around and did not see any trace of Hua Qianlou. Could it be that he had already rolled deeper in?
It seemed like he was not as lucky as she was. A trace of regret appeared on Wang Shilin's face. Although he wasn't a good person, his life didn't care whether it was good or bad. After all, everyone had the right to live.
Wang Shilin sighed. It was already dusk, so she had to find a way to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise, she would be in danger when it was night time and she would be surrounded by snakes and wild beasts.
Wang Shi Lin carefully looked around and found that there were many wild vines growing here. Maybe she could try climbing up these vines slowly!
She stood on her tiptoes and reached out her hand to touch a thick tree branch in front of her. Wang Shilin stomped on the ground and used all her strength to grab onto it. Due to the rain, the mud under her feet was extremely slippery.
It's over, no matter how tough my life is, I'm done for! Wang Shilin lamented in her heart.
He did not fall as he had expected, but rolled into a low puddle, pressed down heavily on a warm body, and heard a groan of pain.
”Damned woman, just how long are you going to keep pressing down on her?” Even though the voice was weak and cold, it still gave people goosebumps.
As if she had been struck by lightning, Wang Shilin's entire body trembled. She crawled up, frightened, and her eyes widened in surprise.
It turned out that Hua Qianlou wasn't dead yet!
A voice involuntarily sounded in his heart: ”Could this be the so-called thousand years of calamity?!”
”I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. ”I thought you already …” Wang Shilin hurriedly apologized.
”You still think I'm dead?” Hua Qian Xun glared at Wang Shilin with his cold black eyes and snorted coldly: ”Hmph! It won't be that easy for me to die! ”
Wang Shilin did not make a sound. She only saw Hua QianXun lying in the hole, unable to move. His cold face was covered in bruises, and his black windbreaker was already torn by tree branches, revealing his bleeding arm. His right leg was completely drenched in blood.
Wang Shishi could not help but frown as her breath was filled with the thick scent of blood that emanated from his body.
”Young Master Hua, you … Are you all right? ” Wang Shilin asked in a low voice.
With so much blood on his body, she could imagine how painful it would be where he was now. However, this domineering man's expression did not change. He did not even make a sound. Such endurance was not something that an ordinary person could possess!
”He won't die!” Hua QianXun tried to sit up, but every slight movement would cause a heart-wrenching pain in his right leg. He knew very well that his right leg was broken. The distance he fell from the cliff was too high. In order to save Wang Shilin, he used his inner force to prop him while his leg hit the rock.
When he first woke up, he did not expect that he would be able to survive after rolling into this low pit. Looks like he still won the bet in the end. He said that only he could decide the life and death of others and he would never be controlled by others!
Seeing that he had finally furrowed her brows from the pain, Wang Shilin could not bear the pain anymore. She tried to help him, but he blocked her hand with a cold expression.
”Wang Shilin, stop showing your sympathy. I don't need it!”
He hated the sympathy of others the most. In his opinion, it was a hypocritical thing!
”But Young Master Hua, you really are seriously injured.”
