Chapter 727 - The Curse (2) (2/2)
-
Zhao Ming pursed her lips and took a deep breath, knowing that these two men are behind her and not Lu shi. Her jumping in the water can distract them from focusing on Lu shi and leave her alone. She can be rescued when someone comes later.
She was sure that the palace guards would find them later but till then, she can't let Lu shi die here because of her. Although she was not bleeding that heavily, head injuries can be dangerous and fatal.
SHe doesn't want to take any chances with her life.
Her hands trembled as she looked at the water. ” You Bitch, you dared to run away from us. Come here.” The man standing beside Lu shi shouted at her and walked towards her.
” Don't come near me, If you do I am gonna jump into this lake.” she threatened but he didn't stop and continued to walk towards her.
” Argh..grab her. We can't let her get away from us.” The man on the ground instructed his partner.
Zhao Ming's cold hands turned colder as she nervously stepped back. She was thinking of another alternative as she was having second thoughts of jumping in the deep lake where many people died of drowning.
However, seeing the man coming closer, she lost her balance and slipped into the cold water. The water splashed at the man, making him wet. He looked down at the lake to see the girl struggling to breathe.
He was shocked when he heard his partner cursing, ” What the F*&#! Get that bitch here. We can't let her die. Boss will kill us if she dies.”
The man was planning to save her but his eyes widened hearing some noises coming from the distance.
He turned to his partner and asked in shock, ” Someone is coming! What to do now?”
” Argh..” the man stood up while trying to not think about the pain that Zhao Ming had given her and looked at Lu shi who was bleeding heavily and the woman who was drowning in the water.
He gritted his teeth and looked towards the area from where the sound of someone coming. ” Let's leave for now. If we were caught, it would be problematic.” He said while the other one also nodded.
The man looked at Zhao Ming whose body was sinking deep in the water while she was hitting her hands on the water to stay afloat but her heavy dress and incapability to swim was stopping her, making her breathless and suffocated.
He shook his head and left with his partner, not thinking twice about the girl who was on the verge of drowning.

Zhao Ming's body was becoming heavy with every second and sinking, drawing her head in the water, suffocating her, making him breathless and panicked.
Her energy started failing her, her eyes closed when she couldn't get any strength to fight again, with this her body started to sink deeper into the water as the darkness engulfed her.
