At the same exact moment, Yun Bixue grabbed Shen Zhengyao’s hand and switched off the lighter. She quickly caught his body as it fell. The entire series of rapid actions was completed in an instant. She was still shocked as well.
Even before she could catch her breath, she landed in a warm embrace. They were moving so fast it felt like they were flying.
Not long after the two left, an explosion sounded behind them.
Hearing the explosion, Yun Bixue’s heart suddenly trembled. Her eyes opened wide in shock. As she looked at the smoke from the aftermath of the explosion, her knees felt weak.
It really was a matter of life and death just now. As she raised her head, she saw the deity-like charming face of Xie Limo. His face was now tainted by a dark and scary aura.
She looked again and saw that they were descending down a rope that was tied to a railing. Xie Limo was holding her with one hand, and the other was on the rope. Their descent downwards was swift, and she could see his hand becoming red from straining against the rope.
Yun Bixue felt her heart thumping. Everything moved in a blur; she felt like she was in a dream.
After they landed, Yun Bixue looked at the place that she was standing on just a few seconds ago. Everything had been turned to ruin. No matter how much she struggled to calm herself, she felt weak at the thought of almost being under that rubble.
After experiencing such a moment, she felt her mind blank out.
Just as she fell into a trance, Xie Limo grabbed her by the arm. With a firm squeeze, he pushed her against the wall.
“Yun Bixue, are you trying to make me angry?”
Yun Bixue’s back and arm both ached. Hearing Xie Limo’s angry voice, she raised her head and looked at him innocently. She felt as though she was looking at a red spider lily in the night. It was so beautiful and charming, but at the same time dark and scary.
“I, Limo, I…”Yun Bixue opened her mouth, but no words came out. He had never called her by her full name before, nor had he ever looked at her so grimly.
Looking at this Xie Limo, she felt her heart filled with unease. She was almost afraid to look at him.
She only knew that she wanted to hide herself from those furious but magnetic eyes.
Xie Limo pinned Yun Bixue’s left hand on the wall while using his other hand to trap her near the floor. He leaned down slowly and said, “Yun Bixue, Madam, you really are…” Really what? Xie Limo could only feel rage in his chest, and he almost wanted to snap Yun Bixue in half.
Yun Bixue’s tongue spun around, and she finally found her voice, “Limo, I, I didn’t do it on purpose. I was only worried about you, so I wanted to come and find you.”
Xie Limo’s grip on Yun Bixue’s hand grew tighter and tighter. “Weren’t you told to stay at the villa? Who let you out?” When he received the alarm a while ago, he felt like his world had collapsed.
If he didn’t manage to protect his own wife, he couldn’t guarantee that he wouldn’t do something crazy.
“I, I couldn’t bear it anymore. I just wanted to find you.”
“Yun Bixue, where did your brains go? Did you know that just a second ago that you almost, almost … cough cough… ” Xie Limo felt that his lungs were about to burst.
Yun Bixue lowered her head and licked her dry lips. “Limo, I know that I was in danger a second ago, but everything’s fine now, right? Please don’t be angry anymore, alright?” Yun Bixue pleaded, tugging at Xie Limo’s sleeve gingerly.
“That was too dangerous just now. Yun Bixue, you listen to me carefully. Was it dangerous just now? If anything had gone wrong—anything—do you know what would have happened to you?”
