Yu Shijin was right in front of her, and she couldn’t see his face clearly. If he woke up, she didn’t know if she would blame herself for not letting him see her for the last time.
As for Chi Yue, she wondered if he would properly manage the Rapid Fire Mercenary Regiment. It would be the same as before. Once she died, he would immediately leave the mercenary group.
There was also Gu Li, Qu Yan, and Yu Xiangyang. The three of them were used to following her around. Although they had their own opinions, they liked to look for her the most whenever they encountered any problems. She still wanted to see the three of them make a name for themselves overseas. Of course, she was actually worried about Qu Yan and Gu Li. These two people with low EQ did not know when they would be together.
As for Yu Xiangyang, the fiancée from the Ye family had looked for him. She did not know if he had returned.
Principal Dien, her teacher, had been waiting for her to return for so many years. Unfortunately, she was about to leave again before she could acknowledge him.
The ones to whom she felt the most guilt were Su Ruohua and Su Lun. Although she didn’t want to say it, Su Huiqing was filled with guilt. After all, she had taken over their (grand)daughter’s body and left before they could do anything.
The one she was most worried about was still Yu Shijin. He was such an arrogant person, and he had persisted for so many years. If he woke up and realized that she was no longer around, who knew what he would do?
Indeed, one should not have friends. After dying so many times, this was the only time that she was most concerned about them.
To be able to meet them in this life, she must have spent all her luck in the past few lifetimes. It was pretty good.
Su Huiqing’s brain was slowing down, and she could no longer talk to the old man. She wanted him to lie to Yu Shijin, but she couldn’t even open her mouth. In the end, she slowly closed her eyes.
At the same time, the lights in the five-star formation were finally extinguished.
The white-haired old man looked at Su Huiqing, who had collapsed on the ground, and couldn’t even say a word of comfort.
After living for so many years, this was the first time he felt so terrible.
The sound above their heads was getting closer and closer. The white-haired old man raised his head and happened to see Gu Li and the others digging a hole. Their eyes were also filled with excitement. “Qingqing, we’re here!”
The white-haired old man sighed and took the gourd from his waist to drink some wine.
At the same time, the blue flame beside the five-star formation disappeared.
Qu Yan’s ‘Qingqing’ was still in her mouth when she saw this scene. Even though Su Huiqing was dressed in black, she could tell that Su Huiqing was bleeding profusely.
The people behind them also came down one after another. The expressions on their faces turned dull after surviving a calamity. There was an unprecedented silence in the entire cave.
The atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
Qu Yan, Gu Li, and Yu Xiangyang didn’t say a word. They didn’t even cry. None of the youths who accompanied Su Huiqing all the way from Green City to overseas and back to Green City understood Su Huiqing better than them.
This person was cold to the bone… but also warm just the same.
Yu Xiangyang followed the trail of blood and squatted beside Su Huiqing. “Qingqing?”
No one answered.
He did not dare to use his hand to check if she was breathing. There was still a trace of hope in his heart.
Just ten minutes ago, he felt like he was going to die. At that time, he thought that if he were to do it again… on that sunny afternoon, he would still choose to get out of the car and walk into the hair salon.
He then asked, “Are you Su Huiqing?”
That was the beginning of everything, but he didn’t want it to end.
An ordinary rich second-generation heir like him had been brought onto this hot-blooded path by her. Along the way, they had sat together, pulled her to play Fight the Landlord, and pestered her to bring them to play games. Now, whether it was in the game or in reality, the three of them were experts that others looked up to. Yet, the person who had brought them up along the way had disappeared.
Until Gideon and the others came down as well…
These three youths, who had accompanied Su Huiqing without fear of death, finally realized a fact…
From now on, there would be no one to carry them on their journey. They could only proceed on their own.
At the side, Yu Shijin slowly opened his eyes. For the first time, there was a hint of confusion in his usually clear eyes. However, it only lasted for a moment before he quickly regained his senses.
Other than a few people crying softly, there was no other sound.
It was eerily quiet.
However, the smell of blood could not be concealed. His gaze gradually shifted to his feet. There, Gideon was sitting beside Su Huiqing. His face was blank, and even his body was covered in blood.
He had never thought that she would really disappear.
“Master Yu?” Elder Yu was the only one who was not in a daze. He could see that Yu Shijin’s eyes were almost dark.
Yu Shijin lowered his head and didn’t answer him. His dark eyes slowly shifted from the extinguished lamp to Su Huiqing.
After seeing the blood all over her body, he looked at his hands as if he had woken up. At this moment, he finally knew the truth that he did not want to know in his life.
He was still alive.
Why was he still alive?
In the eyes of Elder Yu and the rest, the current Yu Shijin was abnormal. His pitch-black eyes were slowly turning red like a pool of stagnant water. Anyone who saw him would feel a chill down their spine.
For the first time, Yu Shijin fell to the ground in a sorry state. When he raised his hand again, his hand was covered in blood.
“How could this be…?” His blood-stained hand trembled as he tried several times. Finally, he successfully touched her face. It was almost colder than the snow falling from the cave entrance.
The blood beneath his body started to condense.
“Su Huiqing… open your eyes and look at me… hmm?” Yu Shijin pushed her hair aside and asked with a trembling voice.
He asked several times, but there was no answer.
At this moment, he finally looked at the old man standing at the side.
The old man only heard his terrifyingly calm voice. “Do I still have a chance?”
This time, the old man could not lie. He paused for a moment and finally shook his head. “There’s something I want to tell you…”
“I understand.” Yu Shijin carried Su Huiqing and walked towards the hole without looking at anyone.
Along the way, blood was spilled.
He had once thought about what would happen if she did not return in the end.
He had thought about it many times, but he had never been so sure that she could not go back.
From then on, Su Huiqing would no longer exist in this world.
