C245 (1/2)

A girl dressed in a white robe was standing gracefully between the two imposing youths. Her pair of watery eyes, under everyone's amazement, finally landed on the bloodthirsty man.

In the blink of an eye, the girl's beautiful eyes were filled with a strange glow. She would never have imagined that there would be such a magnificent man in this world. Even if she didn't see his face, his aura was admirable.

Her beautiful eyes were glued onto the man's bloodstained clothes, unable to tear it off anymore. In her heart, there lived a terrifying devil. She wanted the best, the best resources, and also the best man in the world.

As if he felt her eager gaze, the man finally glanced back at her from the stormy shore. His pitch-black eyes that were like ink glanced at her as if he was looking at a dead man.

It was that glance that made her cover the corner of her mouth. Panic spread from her heart to her four limbs, causing her to suffocate!

The man calmly withdrew his gaze and was no longer moved by what was happening around him. Only she could not make a sound as she gripped her sleeves tightly, feeling so nervous that her heart was about to jump out.

How could it be him?

Hadn't he already left? Why did he appear here again?

Such a familiar face, such similar cold despair, she could not forget.

Did he discover something and come back for revenge?

If he knew, if he knew, that thing was with him, what would he do?

She was so scared that her entire body was trembling. Her devastatingly beautiful face was pale. What should she do?

”Qingcheng, what's wrong?” The youth in white saw that her face was covered in cold sweat. He took out a handkerchief from his sleeve and wiped the sweat off her forehead. He asked with concern, ”Are you not feeling well?”

Gu Qingcheng regained her senses as she heard that question, and firmly grabbed onto Yuhan's hand, as if she wanted to ask for confirmation. ”Will you be by my side? Will you be by my side? ”

Yu Han was taken aback by her serious expression, but he couldn't pinpoint what was weird about it. He made a firm promise, ”As long as you don't mind, I will naturally always be by your side.”

”Will you always protect me?”

”Don't be silly, I will protect you.” The white robed young man's promise caused Gu Qingcheng to feel slightly more at ease. She heaved a sigh of relief, her heart finally calming down. If it wasn't for the circumstances, she would have hugged the young man beside her and given him a comforting kiss.

After receiving Yu Han's promise, Gu Qingcheng did not intend to let Li Xiaoming, who had always been watching, off the sidelines. In her heart, Li Xiaoming could not refuse her either.

Li Xiaoming was stunned, unable to say a word.

”You don't want to, you don't want to be by my side?” Gu Qingcheng's beautiful eyes instantly lit up, her voice full of grievance. ”Do you find me troublesome?” Or do you think I'm going to drag you down? ”Tell me …”

This questioning tone suddenly made the silent Li Xiaoming a little impatient. The main influence that the female lead's halo had on him was when Gu Hua Wei was no longer around, and now that Gu Hua Wei had safely returned from the Lost Swamp, even though he and Gu Hua Wei had already broken off, in his heart, there was still Gu Hua Wei's shadow. On the contrary, this shadow made Li Xiaoming not like Gu Qing as much as he did before.
