Chapter 33 The Thin Line of Life and Death
"Senior!!!" Qingyu screamed.
The sound of the wooden stick hitting her body and the sound of her body hitting the ground made her feel terrified.
"Senior???"
While resisting the attacks of several people, she called Tingyun.
But Tingyun never answered.
Senior, was he knocked unconscious, or...
She didn't dare to think about it anymore, tears flowed down her face uncontrollably.
Without Tingyun's reminder, she was hit by wooden sticks again and again.
But she fought back regardless, anxious and angry.
The people on the opposite side thought that it would be easier to deal with Tingyun, but unexpectedly this girl fought back like crazy.
Although their side clearly has the advantage, they are inevitably hit by girls.
Several people had no patience to waste time with her.
The square-faced man winked at a man under his command.
The man quietly knelt down, pulled the fainted Tingyun aside, and then:
"Throw away what you're holding! Otherwise, I'll give him a scoop right away!"
Qingyu was startled and stopped waving his arms.
The person opposite also stopped, waiting for her choice.
Qingyu held the branch horizontally with his right arm, slowly squatted down and touched the ground beside him.
Tingyun is indeed not here!
"How about it? If I count to three, if I don't throw it away, his brain will explode immediately! One..."
The square-faced man only counted a few, and Qingyu threw down the branch in his hand without hesitation.
She doesn't know what's going on with Tingyun, and she doesn't know who these people are.
But she knew very well that if she gave up resistance, she still wouldn't be able to save Tingyun, and would involve herself in it.
This is not a smart choice, but if you let her choose ten thousand times, she will still make the same choice!
She had no choice but to watch others hurt Tingyun in front of her.
No matter what kind of fate, she must bear it with him!
"It's a pretty little girl, what a pity." The square-faced man sneered and hit her on the head with his stick.
The fierce wind blew down.
Even though she couldn't see anything, Qingyu suddenly closed her eyes.
"Stop!" A lazy voice sounded.
The sound of the wind stopped suddenly above her head.
Qingyu let out a long breath and turned to the direction of the sound, but her eyes were still dark.
"Fourth Master, these two people saw us transporting goods. Logically speaking, they can't stay." The square-faced man's voice was respectful.
That lazy voice sounded again:
"Take this man back, he will be useful if you keep it. This little girl..."
Qingyu's heart is in her throat.
"It's useless. I should have shut her up forever. But..."
The man stopped again.
Qingyu's heart is hanging in the air, disgusted with the fact that this person always gasps for breath when he speaks.
The man smiled softly:
"But she is very passionate, and I appreciate it very much. Let's keep it. With her here, it might be easier to talk."
~~~
When Tingyun woke up, he only felt a splitting headache and heavy pressure on his chest.
He slowly opened his eyes and looked down.
A little head rests on his chest. Who is it if it’s not Qingyu?
She closed her eyes, and her long eyelashes hung down like two small brushes.
Her long, soft and smooth hair was now a little messy and looked fluffy, like a newborn hedgehog.
She just lay on him and fell asleep. In her sleep, her left hand was still holding his right hand.
Tingyun looked at her and felt a strange feeling in his heart.
He fainted, and she guarded him by his bedside, waiting for him to wake up, as if he was a very close person to her.
For some reason, Tingyun wanted to rub her hair and touch her face.
His fingers moved, but his hand did not lift.
But just by flexing her fingers, Qingyu felt it. Her eyelashes trembled, she opened her eyes and met Tingyun's gaze.
She stared at him blankly for a few seconds, then suddenly jumped up: "Senior, you're awake! That's great! It scared me to death!"
She looked into Tingyun's eyes and her voice was full of urgency: "Senior, do you have a headache? Are you dizzy? Are you uncomfortable?"
Tingyun looked at her and smiled reassuringly: "It's okay."
"Fortunately, what is it? Does it hurt or not?" Qingyu asked.
Tingyun smiled again: "I received a stick on my head. Does it not hurt?"
Qingyu’s big eyes are full of anxiety:
"Is it possible to have a concussion? You need to go to a big hospital to see it! But what should I do if I can't get out?"
She is so anxious that she talks like a jumping bean.
Tingyun interrupted her: "Stop talking about this for now, let's talk about the situation in front of you. What did you see and hear?"
Qingyu tried hard to remember:
"I, I didn't see anything. I only saw things when I entered this room and there was a light.
"All I heard was the sound of wind, water and walking, nothing special."
Tingyun asked again: "Where are the people? Didn't you see anyone or hear them talking?"
Qingyu replied: "When I entered the house, I saw a man who beat us before. Later, a doctor came to see you."
Tingyun asked: "Have you seen their faces clearly?"
Qingyu nodded vigorously: "I can see clearly, but it's useless to see clearly."
Tingyun didn't try to tell her that when the gangster doesn't care about you seeing him clearly, it means he is confident.
He just continued to collect information: "Then did you hear what they said? Try to repeat it to me verbatim."
Just as Qingyu was about to answer, the door was pushed open with a "squeak" and a lazy voice came:
"The little girl is just like you, she doesn't know anything. If you want to know anything, come and ask me!"
Tingyun and Qingyu looked at the person coming together.
It was a man in his forties, wearing a Chinese shirt and trousers, who walked in slowly, playing with a red rosewood bracelet in his right hand.
His smile was as lazy as his voice. But his eyes were sharp and gloomy.
Qingyu turned around and spoke to Tingyun, her voice neither loud nor quiet:
"This eldest brother is the one who saved us. I heard them respectfully call him Fourth Master."
Fourth Master looked at her with a smile:
"The little girl has such a sweet mouth. She knew we were on the same team, but she still saved you one by one.
"I've already put on this high hat, so I don't want to embarrass you too much, right?"
Qingyu didn't feel embarrassed when his purpose was exposed in person, and still smiled: "Then my little bit of moral integrity is naturally not enough in your eyes!"
Fourth Master smiled and turned his gaze to Tingyun:
"Young people are lucky to have such a good little girlfriend who is smart and protective of you."
Tingyun was stunned when he heard this, and subconsciously turned his eyes to Qingyu. She happened to look sideways at him, with a smile on her lips.
Fourth Master is still saying:
"You were dizzy at that time, but you didn't see: My men threatened her with you, and she threw the stick away with a bang.
"If I hadn't shouted so fast, your little girlfriend's head would have exploded!"
Tingyun was stunned for a moment, then suddenly turned to look at Qingyu.
It turns out that something like this happened after he was knocked unconscious!
Why?
Why would she make this choice?!
She knew clearly that those people wanted to silence them!
Tingyun's heart, which had always been calm, was now beating wildly.
Chapter completed!
