As soon as he got on the horse, Bai Weiwei tugged the reins, her eyes sharp . She soared1 as her horse charged towards the cliff .
Everybody rushed over, shouting and screaming to kill them .
Bai Weiwei ignored them, handing over the responsibility of watching their backs to Xie Yunting .
Xie Yunting, holding a long sword with a curved edge, cut down countless arrows .
Xie Yunting’s pupils constricted . Without thinking, he threw the sword in his hand, cleanly piercing the assassin’s heart .
Now he lost his weapon .
They were surrounded by the enemy, with no time to wait for help to arrive .
Xie Yunting lost too much blood and dizzily rested his head on the crook of her shoulder .
He held her waist, and the two tightly pressed together .
Soft and warm, like clouds and satin .
He didn’t want to die alone, still having these kinds of thoughts towards the little emperor .
Like he was possessed .
“Bai Wei…”
His voice was weak .
Bai Weiwei was very focused; their lives were on her shoulders . She didn’t have the leisure to pay attention to Xie Yunting’s thoughts .
So she didn’t say anything .
“I didn’t expect the two of us to die together . ”
Xie Yunting whispered .
Bai Weiwei finally heard what the man behind her said .
“Were you not listening?!” Bai Weiwei suddenly shouted .
Xie Yunting opened his eyes . Across the cliff was a flat mountain path .
Bai Weiwei leaned forward and pressed the horse’s belly . Her whole body dived forward .
The horse whinnied and sped ahead . It jumped off the cliff .
The wind howled .
And Bai Weiwei’s voice reached his ears .
“The wicked live a thousand years . How could you die so easily?”
The horse leaped off the cliff, narrowly missing the small path .
And Bai Weiwei heard the system notification .
【Host activated the life subsistence guarantee . Deducting five days of life . 】
The life subsistence guarantee could be used in all sorts of dangerous situations .
For example, when riding a horse off a cliff, it would ensure survival .
Not only that, but she would be able to jump even more smoothly than others .
The assassins who caught up stopped one after another . A few of them braked too late and directly plunged to the bottom of the cliff .
Xie Yunting was shocked and looked at her with wide eyes .
She actually could steer a horse to jump off a cliff . It not only took the technique, but it also took courage .
When Bai Weiwei noticed his gaze, she couldn’t help but smile .
Nudging the horse, she took Xie Yunting down the mountain path and disappeared into the forest .
Xie Yunting, was shaken by her smile . His eyes trembled, and his heart jumped restlessly .
His black hair covered his eyes . He gripped her waist even more tightly, not letting go, fearing that she would abandon him .
Bai Weiwei nearly suffocated from his strength . “Let go, Tai Fu . ”
Xie Yunting’s consciousness was getting farther and farther away . His voice was hoarse and thick . “Won’t let go . If I let go, you’ll run away . ”
Bai Weiwei was helpless . “Where can we go, with you holding on so tightly?
She was sarcastic and annoyed .
But he stubbornly believed he heard a trace of ambiguous feelings .
For a lifetime
【Ding . The male lead’s favorability has increased to 40 . For 3 seconds, the male lead thought that you liked him . This is the second time . 3 more times and the side quest will be considered a failure . 】
Bai Weiwei turned around in a rage, itching to kick Xie Yunting this wretched man, off the horse .
She was so vicious .
Yet he could still delude himself that she liked him .
This was too depraved, ah2 .
No wonder it was said old virgins were the hardest to deal with .
