Chapter 148 She jumped into the sea (High energy, please vote)
Lu Lie's voice grew increasingly arrogant as he shouted another word.
"Answer me, do you want your own life or hers? Trust Mr. Fu, he will make a wise choice."
Fu Beichen looked at the woman whose wrist was being tightly gripped by Lu Lie. She shook her head gently at him, her eyes already moist.
The next second, Fu Beichen said with unwavering determination, "I want Gu Xingnian. Give her back to me."
Upon hearing this, Gu Xingnian angrily yelled at him, "Fu Beichen, are you crazy? What nonsense are you spouting!"
This sound, however, made Fu Beichen's mind even clearer, and he repeated it with even greater determination:
"Lu Lie, give Niannian back to me. I only want her."
Gu Xingnian roared, "Shut up!"
Seeing the two interacting as if no one else was around, Lu Lie felt a surge of anger rise in his heart, and his face turned so cold that it could frost off.
"Fu Beichen, are you sure you only care about her and not your own life?"
His voice was filled with suppressed resentment, as if he wanted to tear Fu Beichen's mask of affection to shreds on the spot.
Fu Beichen's tone was calm yet penetrating: "Lu Lie, you must be very disappointed. My life, Fu Beichen's life, has never been in your hands."
Lu Lie was completely enraged.
He let out a cold laugh: "That sounds nice! I'd like to see what you, Fu Beichen, have left to live for only ten days, and what you'll have left to love her with!"
After saying that, he raised the test tube in his hand, as if he was about to smash it.
"don't want!"
Gu Xingnian screamed, gripping his large hand tightly with all her might, her eyes filled with pleading.
"Don't drop it, Lu Lie, don't drop it. I've never asked you for anything... Can you give it to me? Don't let him die, please!"
At this moment, she burst into tears.
Whether she loves or hates Fu Beichen, and regardless of their past grievances, none of that matters at this moment.
This small test tube, though seemingly insignificant, is truly his lifeline.
How could she just stand by and watch him die in front of her?
She could love the world, so how could she possibly disregard his life?
Fu Beichen looked at Gu Xingnian, who was pleading desperately, and his eyes welled up with tears.
His voice was terribly hoarse: "Niannian, don't cry, don't beg him. Even if I only live for one more day, I won't regret it. Come home with me, okay?"
He paused, then called out softly again.
"good."
Gu Xingnian just shook her head, tears falling like beads from a broken string.
Looking at her on the verge of shattering, Lu Lie's anger burned even more fiercely.
"You actually begged me for his sake?"
"Where is your pride? You are a god among men! You do not belong to him alone! You should love all people, but why do you only love him?"
All of this made him feel incredibly guilty, like a clown.
He was bewildered, he was filled with resentment. But he didn't understand: how could a god who understands love for humanity abandon his beloved?
Gu Xingnian sniffed hard, her voice still pleading: "Lu Lie, give it to me, I can go back with you, I promise I'll never see him again, never again."
Ultimately, Fu Beichen was poisoned because he was trying to save his master, so no matter what, he didn't deserve to die.
Lu Lie was even angrier, and the veins on his forehead bulged.
"Gu Xingnian, I forbid you to cry! You are not allowed to shed another tear for him!" He gritted his teeth, each word sounding like a threat squeezed out from between his teeth.
"Okay, okay, I won't cry, I won't cry."
Gu Xingnian reached out and wiped the tears off her face haphazardly, but no matter how she wiped, they wouldn't dry; her eyes were like springs.
This scene once again deeply moved Fu Beichen.
He's going to break.
"Niannian, don't cry." He coaxed her gently, wanting to hold her tightly in his arms and wipe away all her tears.
Lu Lie looked at Fu Beichen again, his eyes filled with a final ultimatum, "Fu Beichen, are you sure you only care about her, even if it means risking your life?"
Fu Beichen's gaze was sharp, and he didn't hesitate at all: "That's right, I only want her. Your threats are useless."
He answered firmly.
Lu Lie suddenly threw Gu Xingnian away, and she fell heavily to the ground.
"Since he's already made his choice, just accept reality!"
After saying that, he flicked his wrist and tossed it away casually.
A long arc flashed across the sky as the purplish-red test tube tumbled through the air, seemingly about to plunge into the turbulent sea.
"don't want!"
Gu Xingnian shouted, almost instinctively. She leaped into the air, her eyes fixed on the test tube, and reached out a hand to grab it.
His entire body sank straight down into the icy seawater.
"Nian Nian!"
"Nian Nian!"
Two voices, filled with extreme terror, rang out simultaneously.
Both men were so frightened at that moment that they lost their minds.
Lu Lie was terrified; he hadn't expected her to be so reckless. Then, he too jumped into the sea.
Fu Beichen also tried to rush over, but was held back tightly by two bodyguards.
He suddenly shook off the two bodyguards, but four more rushed up and pinned him down, making him unable to move.
"Nian Nian!"
His knees buckled, and he collapsed to his knees on the cold ground.
She actually jumped into the sea for him!
But she's afraid of water!
At that moment, the wind was high and the waves were rough, and boundless despair and excruciating pain instantly engulfed him.
Gu Xingnian felt a sharp pain as the water hit her body, but it seemed as if she had caught the test tube.
She held on tightly, not daring to let go for even a moment.
Huge waves crashed against her, leaving her helplessly floating in the water.
Suddenly, her head slammed hard against a rock, and a wave of intense dizziness washed over her.
She lost all strength to struggle, and her body began to slowly sink.
Bang! Another loud splash. Lu Lie surfaced, searched quickly, and then swam toward her with all his might.
Seeing her sink, Lu Lie plunged down into the seabed with all his might and finally saw her figure, which was completely surrounded by a thick crimson color.
Now it seems strikingly similar to what happened four years ago.
At that moment, she saw Fu Beichen fall into the sea and jumped in without hesitation. She used all her strength to pull the unconscious Fu Beichen up.
Unexpectedly, just as they reached the surface, they encountered a shark that swam towards them.
In a moment of desperation, she forcefully pushed Fu Beichen away, cut her arm with a hairpin, turned and swam away, leading the shark in another direction.
In the water, her blood stained a chilling crimson.
The shark was about two meters away from her, its mouth wide open...
Her eyes widened in horror, her heart raced, and she stopped breathing.
In a life-or-death moment, Lu Lie used his harpoon to wound the shark, and as they struggled, she gradually sank to the bottom of the sea.
After being rescued, she fell into a deep coma and almost became a vegetable.
When she woke up, her memory was still stuck on the terrifying scene of the shark opening its mouth. From then on, she was afraid to go into the water again and underwent psychological treatment for half a year.
Fu Beichen, whom she pushed onto the water, was "picked up" by Jiang Kexin.
Lu Lie was so frightened that his pupils suddenly contracted. He swam over like a madman, hugged her tightly, and used all his strength to break through the water.
"Niannian!" he shouted hoarsely and urgently.
The bodyguards on the shore hurriedly pulled them ashore.
When he stepped onto solid ground with the unconscious person in his arms, he was terrified and at a loss for what to do. He quickly began to perform emergency CPR and artificial respiration on her.
But she showed no signs of waking up.
"Remember! Remember!"
Fu Beichen screamed wildly and struggled desperately, like a trapped beast trying to pounce, but his body was tightly restrained and he couldn't move an inch.
Lu Lie kept performing CPR, repeatedly shouting, "Niannian, open your eyes and look at me! Niannian, don't sleep! Niannian!"
At that moment, he felt an unprecedented fear grip his heart.
He was afraid; he was afraid of losing her again.
But she remained unconscious, her eyes tightly closed, and she was completely lifeless.
"Niannian, don't sleep! I was wrong." Lu Lie stopped performing CPR and instead held her head tightly, calling her name again and again in despair.
"Niannian, please, open your eyes." Lu Lie's heart was already bleeding profusely.
He regretted it!
He shouldn't have brought her here.
"Lu Lie, what are you doing? Save her! Save her now!" Fu Beichen roared at him frantically.
Suddenly, as if provoked by something, Lu Lie rushed over in a frenzy, grabbed Fu Beichen by the collar, and punched him hard in the face several times.
His eyes were bloodshot as he shouted, "Fu Beichen! You bastard! Four years ago, you almost caused her death! Why did you still provoke her? Why did you have to make her die for you again!"
"The person who deserves to die the most is you!"
Fu Beichen's mouth and eyebrows were bleeding from the beating, but he just stared blankly at him, his mind a complete blank. He had no idea what had happened four years ago, as Lu Lie had mentioned.
Why did she risk her life for it?
But at this moment, he no longer had the ability to think.
"Lu Lie, quick, get her to the hospital, quick!" he roared, trembling with fear.
Lu Lie's eyes were filled with ruthlessness: "Fu Beichen, you'll never see her again!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than gunshots suddenly rang out in quick succession from the woods.
Immediately afterwards, five well-trained team members in black rushed out.
Yes, it's Fu Beichen's men who have come to attack.
In the distance, the roar of helicopters grew louder as they approached.
Lu Lie wanted to immediately carry Gu Xingnian away, but his bodyguard rushed over first and protected him tightly.
"Mr. Lu, hurry! It's too late!"
The bodyguard pulled him away and forced him to retreat to a secluded spot.
When Fu Beichen was released, he rushed over like a madman and hugged the limp Gu Xingnian tightly in his arms.
Her eyes were tightly closed, her face was as pale as paper, and blood was still gushing from the wound on her forehead, a shocking sight.
Fu Beichen bent down and performed CPR on her again, pressing on her chest repeatedly.
He kept performing artificial respiration.
Tears streamed down her face uncontrollably, dripping onto her cold, pale face.
Lin Qi jumped down the spiraling helicopter ladder and shouted anxiously at him, "President Fu, quick! Get your wife on board, there's emergency medical equipment!"
Fu Beichen carefully picked her up and frantically boarded the helicopter.
On the plane, Zhan Xiao came in person and instructed the doctor to immediately provide emergency treatment to Gu Xingnian.
Fu Beichen looked at her tightly clenched right hand, her palm still dripping blood.
He trembled as he gently pried her fingers apart.
In his palm, he was holding half of a broken test tube.
The sharp glass pierced deep into the tender flesh of her palm, drawing blood.
His heart was clenched into a knot, the pain almost suffocating him...
