C45 (2/2)

Xia Ying looked straight at Zhong Zhen, there was not a trace of fear in his eyes, ”I'm not afraid.”

This look and this sentence, seemed to have given Zhong Zhen a lot of courage, ”The person who saved us is still on his way, as long as we can avoid him.”

Xia Ying looked at him and nodded.

Zhong Zhen looked at Xia Ying's face and suddenly felt very afraid and hesitant, ”Their goal is me, I don't want to involve you, you understand? I really want to be selfish and keep you by my side, but that won't do. Xia Ying, you can go! Go downstairs, or somewhere else! ”No, I'll still go!”

After saying all this without any logic, Zhong Zhen really intended to stand up and leave the cabinet. Xia Ying grabbed her neck and whispered into her ear, ”Don't go. We'll face it together, okay? ”

Zhong Zhen's heart softened. How could he leave this kind of Xia Ying? Dangerous, you know? ”

”If you don't leave, and we stay together, I won't be afraid!” Xia Ying's words were firm, and he was still tightly holding onto Zhong Zhen's arm. Zhong Zhen was truly helpless now.

”Alright, let's hide here for a while. It's really good to have you by my side. Let me be selfish for once. ”

Zhong Zhen looked at Xia Ying, and suddenly felt that this was good as well. It was good as long as they could be together. Had he already loved her to this extent? It was unbelievable.

There was a commotion downstairs, as if a lot of people had rushed in. The crowd screamed in horror, but was quickly stopped. In the blink of an eye, the entire hall became extremely quiet. This silence hid a huge threat.

He only heard a low roar, ”Search!” When Zhong Zhen heard this, he knew it was O'neal.

Zhong Zhen was so nervous that he was trembling. Zhong Zhen held her tightly in his embrace, and could clearly feel that someone was getting closer and closer. The closer they got, the more Xia Ying felt as if his heart was about to leap out of his throat.

Now that he understood that everything was not a joke, it was extremely dangerous. Xia Ying didn't even know where she got the courage from.

The moment that hand pulled open the cabinet, Xia Ying saw more and more light. Zhong Zhen placed his hand behind his back and pressed on the spear, everything was extremely urgent.

At this moment, he heard someone say from not too far away, ”Hey, over here!”

The moment she retracted her hand, Xia Ying almost fainted on the spot. The two of them smiled at each other and snuggled closer to each other.

For a long time, there was no response from outside. O'neal said: ”Useless! How could he possibly fly in such a big place? Go find another one for me! I don't believe it, you all go! ”Search them all!”

”Yes sir!”

After a while, he heard Odile's voice, ”Let go of me!” Odile struggled, and was dragged in front of O'neal. O'neal looked at her and became even more certain, ”Speak! Where is Xue Minghuang? ”

”I don't know!” Odile tilted her head, not even wanting to look at him.

This kind of contemptuous attitude angered O'neal even more. He walked forward and directly slapped Odile, and at this time, Xue Minghuang could not hold it in anymore. How could he hit a woman? He still heard Odile say: ”Mr. Xue received the news a long time ago, you came too late, he has already left! It's useless even if you hit me. ”

O'neal carefully determined if what she said was true or false. Could it be that Xue Minghuang had really left?

Xia Ying grabbed onto Xue Minghuang and shook his head. Odile said this because she hoped to protect Xue Minghuang. She definitely wouldn't want to see him send himself to his death.

O'neal suddenly stopped forcing Odile, ”It doesn't matter, whether Xue Minghuang is on the cruise or not, we will know soon enough! ”Someone, bring her in.”

O'neal looked at the woman who remained silent the entire time, and directly walked over, ”What happened? Afraid that he would lure Xue Minghuang out to die? ”Humph!” O'neal immediately went forward and pinched her chin. A chop was a slap.

That soft voice was like a blade that stabbed straight into Xue Minghuang's heart. It was Sophie! He was actually going all out like this? Found Sophie!

Xia Ying felt his body stiffen for a moment, she did not know who the woman outside was, but her heart was immediately filled with unease. Was it the woman in the photo?

Xue Minghuang was holding onto her arm, not willing to let go. She felt that in the next moment, regardless of whether Xue Minghuang was dead or alive, the person in front of her would no longer belong to him. Xia Ying's tears kept dripping down his face. The voice was barely audible, ”No.”

Xue Minghuang tried his best to struggle free from her, ”Xia Ying, I can't do it.” His tone was extremely pained.

”Because I love her? Right? ”

Xue Minghuang was truly silent. The moment he heard her voice, he really did not know the true answer in his heart. However, perhaps it wasn't love after all. No matter who it was, he would not allow it. He would die for himself. He did not want to kill anyone, nor did he want to implicate anyone. However, as long as he was Xue Minghuang, it was impossible.

Xia Ying painfully closed her eyes, but she still held tightly onto his arm, unwilling to let go, unwilling to let go. Xia Ying told herself in her heart that she was still wrong and lost.
