He had obviously used up his last bit of strength to get here, and every breath seemed extremely difficult.
His gray-blue eyes had lost their former depth and sharpness, leaving only a tired grayness, but he still looked at his sister who was like a ferocious beast on the stairs quietly with a silent power.
"Brother?!" Hua Jinyue's pupils suddenly contracted to the extreme! Her sweet voice instantly changed pitch, rising an octave, filled with extreme panic, fear, and disbelief.
All the violence, madness, and murderous intent on her face melted away as quickly as ice and snow under the sun the moment she saw Qing Ye Qingliu, leaving only pure, childlike fear and panic.
"Why are you here?! Your injury - who asked you to come?!!" Her voice was so sharp that it almost broke, and she sounded like crying.
Ye Qingliu began to cough violently. Every cough affected the wound in his chest. His body arched in pain, and a streak of glaring red could not be suppressed from flowing from his lips.
He endured the overwhelming pain and dizziness and raised his hand with difficulty, as if trying to stop something.
Gray-blue eyes looked at Hua Jinyue calmly. Using the last bit of strength, his voice was as low and hoarse as sandpaper, almost drowned out by the alarm:
"Don't... don't kill anyone..." He gasped, and every word seemed to roll on the edge of a knife.
"...No...It's not worth...dirtying...your hands...for her..."
Before he finished speaking, Ye Qingliu's forced breath completely dissipated.
His body shook violently, his eyes blurred instantly, and he fell forward straight and lifelessly like a puppet with its strings cut.
"elder brother!!!"
Hua Jinyue let out a heart-wrenching scream, like a young animal losing its loved one.
All the killing, all the violence, and all the calculations were completely shattered in an instant!
She completely ignored Su Xinghui who was nearby and Chao Youye who was still in shock, and rushed down the stairs like a madman, like a flash of pink lightning out of control.
In front of Ye Qingliu's cold marble floor, she used her petite body to desperately and fiercely throw herself over and catch his falling body.
Ye Qingliu slammed heavily into her arms, cold and heavy. His head drooped limply in the crook of her neck, his breathing so weak it was almost imperceptible. The glaring scarlet on his chest instantly stained Hua Jinyue's skirt red.
Hua Jinyue was shaking like a leaf in the wind, and huge fear instantly overwhelmed her.
Her tears were like a flood that broke through the dam, falling down without any warning, blurring her vision in an instant.
She held Ye Qingliu's cold and heavy body tightly, using all her strength, as if he would disappear if she let go.
Her voice was broken and filled with helpless sobs and desperate pleas, her words were incoherent:
“Brother…Brother…don’t…don’t be angry…Jinyue was wrong…Jinyue knows she was wrong…Jinyue won’t kill anyone anymore…never again…Brother…please…please look after Jinyue…don’t leave Jinyue alone…Brother…Brother…”
She was like a child abandoned by the whole world, hugging her only support and crying her heart out.
Tears mixed with the dust on her face and Su Xinghui's blood, forming messy grooves on her delicate cheeks.
The man in black behind him immediately stepped forward, wanting to take Ye Qingliu to the hospital: "Miss, leave it to us! Hurry and take her to the hospital!"
"Get out of here!" Hua Jinyue raised her head suddenly, and her eyes, which had been washed by tears, instantly burst into a terrifying ferocious light. Like a mother wolf protecting her cubs, she stared at the man in black who wanted to approach her.
"Don't touch him! Get away from me!"
She held Ye Qingliu's arms tighter, as if he was the only piece of driftwood in her life.
She lowered her head, and tears fell like beads from a broken string, continuously falling on Ye Qingliu's pale and lifeless face.
Her trembling fingers carefully and gently touched his cold cheek, her voice as soft as a dream, filled with humble, broken prayers:
"Brother... Jinyue will be obedient... Jinyue will be obedient from now on... Don't let anything happen to you... Please... Don't let anything happen to you..."
The man in black was intimidated by her aura and dared not move forward. He could only quickly take out the communicator and contact the nearest top hospital and emergency team in the most urgent tone.
Hua Jinyue knelt on the cold marble floor, tightly hugging the unconscious and dying Ye Qingliu. Her small body trembled violently with extreme fear and sadness. She cried heart-wrenchingly and completely collapsed.
The piercing red light of the alarm flashed on her body, illuminating the desperate scene.
Chao Youye stood on the stairs, looking at the apocalyptic scene below, and watching Hua Jinyue's drastic transformation from a murderer to a helpless child in an instant.
He looked at the glaring blood-red on Ye Qingliu's chest, then glanced at Su Xinghui, who was lying limp on the ground with her right hand twisted and deformed, and she was so scared that she couldn't move. He felt a chill running from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and he couldn't even feel the pain in the wound on his left arm.
Su Xinghui collapsed on the stairs, watching Hua Jinyue hugging Ye Qingliu and crying bitterly.
She looked at the dark red patch on Ye Qingliu's chest that was constantly expanding, symbolizing death, and remembered Hua Jinyue's inhumane and fatal blow, and the ruthlessness of crushing her hand bones.
A cold despair, like a poisonous snake, finally completely wrapped around her heart, strangling her so that she couldn't breathe.
She finally understood.
Hua Jinyue...is not a human at all.
She is the sharpest and most uncontrollable weapon that exists only for Ye Qingliu.
And he personally pulled out the last safety pin that imprisoned this weapon.
Now, the knife is completely out of control, and the price... will be devastating.
