Chapter 468 The End of This Life
Jiang Zhiyue seemed to have had a very deep sleep. She wanted to open her eyes, but her eyelids seemed to be weighed down by a thousand-pound weight and she couldn't lift them up.
It was so heavy that she felt as if her eyes no longer belonged to her and could no longer obey her brain's commands.
The noisy sounds continued in her ears, and someone came to visit her again.
I could vaguely hear someone asking, "Are you sure you don't want her to know...that you got on the boat?"
A voice as gentle as jade, with a bit of humility and calmness, "No need, after all, I can't help you much."
"Are you sure you want to say that? Our Young Master Qin never remembers the kindness of others. This time you can be considered his benefactor." This teasing voice clearly had a deeper meaning.
The huge ward was full of people.
Just like that day on the cargo ship, everyone was there except Chu Junyue who didn't make it in time.
Xiao Jingrun also got on board. He showed up when the experts were reluctant to give a definite answer.
As the grandson of the former president, the legitimate prince of Landenberg, and a top student sought after by all the prestigious universities, Xiao Jingrun has too many halos.
He is well-versed in various fields of politics, finance, and economics, and no one would associate him with something as dangerous as bomb disposal.
But only Xiao Jingrun knew that a child growing up in the Presidential Palace would inevitably face threats from his father's political enemies. In adversity, self-help became his only support and way out.
Long before the kidnapping case, he had received a bomb package disguised as a gift. On the paper bag were written a few words in blood: [Murderer!]
It seemed as if someone was still reminding him of his betrayal. The kidnappers let him go, but the Xiao family did not let them go.
Father Xiao even hypocritically told him afterwards, "You have suffered. Those desperate untouchables should have been eradicated. They are all inferior products that should have been eliminated long ago."
Jiang Zhiyue's experience made Xiao Jingrun think of the past. If he left her there alone and if he couldn't do anything for her, what would be the difference between this and abandonment?
After the experts got off the boat, Xiao Jingrun pointed out the three most likely detonating cords again. He could have stayed on the boat and verified the final result with them.
Qin Si insisted on asking him to get off the boat, saying that if he failed, there would be no time to help rescue him.
"You can't die. At least in her heart, you absolutely cannot die here." Although Qin Si spoke little, his few words hit the point directly.
"Your purpose of putting her and me in the slums has been achieved."
The alliance between the aristocratic families was destroyed, and the conflict between the Chu and Sheng families had reached a point where it was no longer possible. Now Chu Xiao dared to steal Mr. Chu's military order code and give it to Lin Jun, exposing the military defense under the enemy's nose.
The person behind Lin Jun is Old Madam Sheng. Who is behind Old Madam Sheng?
"They intend to commit treason." This was the final speculation that Jiang Zhiyue told Qin Si, and Qin Si told Xiao Jingrun without reservation.
The atmosphere was rare and harmonious. The two men talked across the closed door, but their conversation was hidden from Jiang Zhiyue. Xiao Jingrun didn't want the girl to notice his visit.
Let Jiang Zhiyue always think that he is only using her, then she won't have too much psychological pressure. He doesn't want to cause her any confusion. Xiao Jingrun thinks that he is not a sentimental person and has no right to talk about those things. He is burdened with too many incomprehensible things.
But why did his heart suddenly tighten when he heard that she was in danger?
Reason told him to remain a bystander and stay away from trouble, but his body's instinct drove him to get closer to her...
The explosion sounded from the sea, like a sharp blade dissecting Xiao Jingrun's heart. Xiao Jingrun witnessed his own heart beating rapidly in the flames...
He hoped that she was safe, and longed to be like them, to be close to her regardless of everything, and to be as courageous as Gu Zhaoye and stay by her side.
But Xiao Jingrun looked back and realized that this was impossible.
My childhood self was still standing on that devastated road, looking at him firmly and fearlessly.
This is the final decisive battle, which was kicked off by Jiang Zhiyue.
The Sheng family is about to be involved in a major rebellion. To what extent will this fire spread, who will put it out and how, and what effect does he want to achieve with this rebellion.
Xiao Jingrun already knew the answer in his heart.
The man stood in the evening breeze for a long time. The roaring helicopter put out the raging fire. The Qin family's assassins jumped into the sea, searching for them.
Mrs. Gu lay on the deck, heartbroken.
The servant reminded him softly that it was time to leave, as Mr. Xiao was waiting for him in the study. What happened tonight could be kept secret from the public, but it could not keep Mr. Xiao's eyes and ears from hearing it.
His grandfather must have thought that this was the best time to seize power. Even though he knew that Mrs. Sheng intended to commit treason, Mr. Xiao would still feel fortunate at some point. This brilliant killing move successfully eliminated several heirs and cleared the way for the Xiao family.
The situation in which the six major families stood in a three-way stalemate on this land finally came to an end.
Xiao Jingrun refused to leave. He ignored the exclamations of his servants, rushed forward to the guards who came forward to stop him, and jumped into the surging sea without hesitation.
You have to do something, even if it's just a tiny bit of hope.
The common people, nobles, and six major families in this country should not be in opposition. What are they?
The sea water swallowed him in an instant. Xiao Jingrun had no time to think about the answer. He searched hard and finally found the unconscious Gu Zhaoye. When someone on the speedboat reached out and pulled up the rope that tightly tied him and Gu Zhaoye.
Xiao Jingrun saw Mu Liansheng's somewhat self-deprecating expression under the moonlight.
"She is such an incredible person, isn't she?" Mu Liansheng couldn't quite explain why he asked this. He actually extended a helping hand to the person he hated the most, and helped his love rival at the same time.
If this had happened in the past, he would have ordered people to beat drums and gongs to celebrate, and would have even stepped on their graves twice. But there was no other way. Mu Liansheng was a hateful person, and he felt that there was no hope for him in this life.
only.....
Hearing the explosion, Mu Liansheng suddenly felt inexplicably sad.
If a man does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth!
Jiang Zhiyue refuted his belief in the truth with her actions. She was smarter and braver than him. Apart from power, he was completely defeated in front of her.
Mu Liansheng knew he couldn't do it, so he could only tell the most sincere lies, using his mother's death to deceive her, trying to gain her sympathy or even make fun of her.
So he will never be as good as her.
He probably would never meet another girl who could make his heart beat as fast as she did in his entire life.
