Chapter 9 Second Redemption
As night fell, Jiang Jiu walked alone on the streets of the city. She wanted to make an attempt.
The moon in the sky seemed to be bigger, Jiang Jiu thought, looking up.
In fact, she didn't find out who was offering the reward for her last night, but if Xiao Nianzhong could say something like "You are very valuable", then the sponsor must be offering a considerable amount.
She was like a moving bait walking down the street. As long as there were killers trying to get at her, they could catch one and torture her with a little 'gentle' means.
"Oh, if I had known earlier, I would have just asked Little Coal Ball."
Jiang Jiu touched his chin, his tone quite regretful.
"Sister Jiang, why are you here?"
A slightly excited voice came from behind, which made Jiang Jiu startled. He turned around and saw Yun Shuili, who was wrapped tightly and fully armed.
"Isn't that the question I should be asking?"
Ginger wine is helpless.
What big star would appear openly in a busy neighborhood, wearing such conspicuous clothes, and even calling her "Sister Jiang" from a distance.
"Because it's too boring."
Yun Shuili spread his hands, his tone extremely innocent, as if he was completely unaware of how attractive he was to ordinary people as a big star.
"Go back quickly, it's dangerous outside."
Jiang Jiu rubbed his head and said with familiar concern.
Even if the person in front of her doesn't know her, she still can't help but say a few more words.
"Is Sister Jiang concerned about my safety?"
Yun Shuili leaned closer to Jiang Jiu, his voice full of laughter. Even if you couldn't see his face, his voice could make people feel soft-hearted.
“…”
Jiang Jiu almost forgot that she wanted to stay away from Yun Shuili, but now it seemed easy for her to be entangled by him.
She remained silent, and Yun Shuili just pursed his lips in boredom, looking very aggrieved.
"Okay, I was just being sentimental."
Yun Shuili lowered his head and whispered softly, but after saying this, he still had no intention of leaving.
Where Jiang Jiu couldn't see, a dark light flashed in his eyes, like a beast about to hunt.
No matter how soft and stunning the mermaids are, and no matter how weak they look, they are ultimately at the top of the food chain in the ocean. As long as the prey approaches, they can kill it with one blow.
"No, go back quickly."
Jiang Jiu shook his head and pointed in the direction of the school.
Unexpectedly, the mask on Yun Shuili's face suddenly fell off, and his stunning face, as bright as the moon in the night sky, was exposed without any warning.
For a moment, everyone in the square focused their attention on him.
The sound of people whispering could be heard not far away, and some people were eager to run towards the two of them.
Seeing that things were not going well, Jiang Jiu subconsciously grabbed Yun Shuili's arm and ran into the dark alley.
After all, in the world of cultivation, Yun Shuili is also a hot commodity, and there are many humans who covet him. Jiang Jiu has become accustomed to taking him away.
The current situation is still very dangerous. There are many stampedes caused by celebrities, especially those like Yun Shuili who can make fans fanatical to the point of almost losing their minds. They are the ultimate terrifying bomb.
The two ran from the light to the dark, until they ran to a place where the surveillance cameras could not see them at all, and finally they completely got rid of the group of crazy fans.
"Sister Jiang, I'm sorry."
Before Jiang Jiu stopped, she heard Yun Shuili whispering in her ear.
Just as she was about to turn around and say "It's okay" to him, she saw an unknown black figure rushing towards Yun Shuili not far behind him, and he even had something that looked like an iron rod in his hand.
In a flash, Jiang Jiu subconsciously protected the person in his arms. The two exchanged positions and the iron rod hit Jiang Jiu hard.
With a muffled groan, Jiang Jiu suddenly felt a fishy and sweet taste in his throat. The man actually used all his strength. If it had hit Yun Shuili, who now had a human body, it might have cost him his life.
After all, he looks too thin.
"you!"
Before pouring the ginger wine, the last thing he saw was Yun Shuili's eyes full of confusion, doubt, and even surprise.
Then he completely lost consciousness.
Yun Shuili held Jiang Jiu in his arms and stared blankly at her limp body.
After an unknown amount of time, the sounds of painful wailing in the alley finally disappeared, and Yun Shuili stood up and walked in another direction.
The moonlight shone into the dark alley, and you could vaguely see a cold light clenched in his other hand.
Accompanied by the sound of steel falling to the ground in the silent alley, Yun Shuili fell to his knees with a thud.
Behind him, through the moonlight, one could see blood slowly flowing in the alley, and Yun Shuili's palms were also covered in blood.
An unknown human figure was lying on the ground, and blood was flowing out of that figure.
In front of him, Jiang Jiu was quietly closing his eyes and leaning against the wall with his head down.
"Why did you save me?"
Yun Shuili muttered to himself as he stretched out his bloody hand to touch Jiang Jiu's cheek, but after seeing the blood on his hand, he timidly retracted it.
His face, as beautiful as a God's creation, was empty and confused, and the blood stains on his clothes made him look like a broken and exquisite doll, with a strange Gothic beauty.
He tried to think, but the smell of blood lingering in his nose repeatedly stimulated his nerves, and finally he could only drop his arms helplessly.
Just like people who have never received kindness will be at a loss after being protected.
There was no one in the empty alley who could answer his questions, and Jiang Jiu had already lost consciousness.
...
In the VIP ward of the hospital.
Jiang Jiu struggled to open his eyes, only to find the white light extremely dazzling. After adjusting for a while, he could barely see everything in front of him.
The pungent smell of disinfectant, the pure white ceiling, and the IV drip next to her indicated that she was now in the hospital.
"What happened......"
Jiang Jiu wanted to rub his aching head, but then he remembered that he had been pricked with a needle in his hand.
Yesterday she seemed to have been knocked unconscious by the bad guys who attacked Yun Shuili.
So she's in the hospital now?
Jiang Jiu moved her body and suddenly felt that the quilt on the right side of her body seemed to be pressed down. She turned her head and saw Yun Shuili's furry head.
"?"
Wasn’t it Yun Shuili who watched over her as she slept last night?
A star's time is so precious, and he didn't leave her to an agent, assistant, or the like, but took care of her personally. It's really rare.
Perhaps because Jiang Jiu's movements were so big, Yun Shuili also opened his eyes in a daze. When he found that Jiang Jiu was looking at him, he immediately showed a big smile, which was completely sincere without any hypocrisy.
It was so beautiful that Jiang Jiu was almost stunned.
