Chapter 50 Falling short of success



Bai Lu's panicked cries sounded particularly eerie and desolate in the pitch-black night, startling the birds in the mountains, who screeched and flew away from the trees, breaking the quiet of the night.

Bai Lu's body was suspended in mid-air, her hands gripping the railing tightly, her face full of terror as she looked at Liu Anran, crying out for help: "Help! Someone please save me!"

A fierce glint flashed in Liu Anran's eyes as she raised her fist and punched Bai Lu's hand hard.

"Ah!" Bai Lu cried out in pain.

Old Liu was stunned by Liu Anran's cold and ruthless demeanor!

My goodness! Liu Anran, who looks so delicate and beautiful, is actually so fierce and ruthless!

A flashlight beam shone from a distance, accompanied by the sound of clattering footsteps.

"What are you doing?" a rough voice rang out again.

As the figure drew closer, Liu Anran approached Chu Yunxiao and took the dagger from his hand.

Chu Yunxiao looked at Old Liu and whispered, "Go and get the gun."

Old Liu left, turned around, and ran back to his car to get his gun.

Liu Anran went to the fence and stabbed Bai Lu's hand with all her might. Bai Lu's hand was pierced by the dagger, and the excruciating pain made her let out a heart-wrenching scream, "Ah! Ahh...!"

Liu Anran pulled out the dagger, and blood gushed out from the wound on Bai Lu's hand, instantly staining the back of her hand red. The bright red blood flowed down her hand and onto the fence.

Bai Lu's forehead was covered in a fine layer of cold sweat. The pain from her wound prevented her from gripping the railing with her injured left hand, so she could only support her body with her right hand.

Just as Liu Anran raised her hand to stab Bai Lu's right hand, a bright light shone on Liu Anran.

"Don't move, or I'll shoot." A hoarse voice rang out.

Bai Lu cried out, "Please save me! I can't hold on much longer!"

Dozens of figures rushed towards Liu Anran and her companions. Liu Anran lowered her arms in frustration, thinking, "Damn it! The female lead isn't so easy to kill! There will always be someone to save her in times of crisis."

A group of people approached Liu Anran and her group with flashlights. Old Liu raised his gun and fired a shot into the air, shouting, "Don't come any closer, or we'll shoot!"

"Help me! I'm going to fall off the cliff!" Bai Lu cried and pleaded.

“We came after hearing cries for help; we meant no harm,” a young, magnetic voice rang out.

Chu Yunxiao's eyes lit up, and he called out, "Jiang Cheng, come here!"

"Boss, I've finally found you!" came a surprised voice.

Liu Anran's eyes flickered. Jiang Cheng, Chu Yunxiao's capable subordinate.

Jiang Cheng led his men to Chu Yunxiao and respectfully greeted him, "Boss!"

Bai Lu's face turned even paler when she heard the newcomer call Chu Yunxiao "boss." If he was Chu Yunxiao's man, then she was doomed.

Bai Lu's right hand slipped, and in a panic, she immediately reached out her injured left hand to grab the railing.

"Help me, I can't hold on much longer, I don't want to die," Bai Lu cried, pleading for help.

Filled with anger, resentment, and despair, she didn't want to die; she wanted to live, to live a glorious life.

Liu Anran, you wait. As long as I live, I will not rest until I kill you.

A tall, strong man shone a flashlight on Bai Lu. When he saw Bai Lu's beautiful face, his face showed amazement. He looked at Chu Yunxiao and asked, "Third Young Master Chu, you don't know anything about cherishing women." As he spoke, he reached out and pulled Bai Lu up.

A hint of regret flashed across Liu Anran's eyes. How come she didn't fall and die?

Bai Lu lay on the ground, barely surviving the ordeal. She looked at her numb hands and a fierce glint flashed in her eyes.

Old Liu looked at Bai Lu on the ground and said, "This woman is no good. In order to cover up the fact that she was raped, she wanted to kill us all to silence us, and even pushed her companion out to her death. Would you dare to want a woman like that?"

Old Liu didn't want to expose Bai Lu's embarrassing secrets, but Bai Lu was a ruthless, intelligent, and persistent woman who was also vengeful. If she used her beauty to get people to deal with them, they would definitely be doomed.

He had to cut off Bailu's escape route; if something happened to them one day, everyone would suspect her and be wary of her.

Bai Lu closed her eyes in despair; her worst fears had come true.

"Shut up! I'm a woman, and I don't even want to live anymore after being bullied like this. Why do you keep poking at my sore spots?" Bai Lu said angrily and shamefully.

Hearing Bai Lu's angry voice, Luo Yuyu worried that he would follow in the footsteps of Liu Anrong and An Qiao, so he hurriedly said, "You brought this on yourself. You have killed several people and even implicated everyone. Everything you have done makes me shudder. I dare not associate with you. You should go with them and stop harming us."

Bai Lu blurted out angrily, "Do you think I enjoy following a bunch of good-for-nothings like you?"

Upon hearing Bai Lu's words, not only Lao Liu and the others, but even Chu Yunxiao's expression darkened.

"No one asked you to come along. You just stubbornly insisted on following us. From now on, you can follow your savior!" Liu Anran said coldly.

The burly man stroked his chin, looking at Bai Lu sitting on the ground. She was indeed beautiful, but he was not worthy of such a femme fatale. He now regretted pulling Bai Lu up with him.

"I only saw that this woman was pitiful and was ready to help her up whenever I wanted. I never said I wanted to take her with me. Please don't push her onto me."

Liu Anran said, "I owe you a life-saving grace and I'll repay you with my body. You're so chivalrous and tender-hearted, you saved her, but you still want to keep her by your side. I don't want to be schemed against by her and not even know how I died."

Luo Yuyu felt a chill run down his spine whenever he saw Bai Lu, and wished he would never see her again. He immediately chimed in, "Bai Lu is so cunning, we dare not take her with us. You take Bai Lu with you, so she can stop harming us."

Seeing that everyone was avoiding Bai Lu, the burly man, not wanting to get into trouble, quickly said, "I regret saving her now. Besides, I have a wife, and it's inconvenient to bring a woman along."

Liu Xiong, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up: "For our own safety, we will no longer take care of Bai Lu. Whether you want to keep her by your side or not is your business and has nothing to do with us."

Bai Lu must hate them to the core for not helping them in their time of need, and she will definitely take revenge on them if she gets the chance. She can't possibly keep someone who wants to become arrogant by her side.

Knowing that she was beautiful and it would be difficult for Bai Lu to return to the capital alone, she grabbed the strong man's leg, looked up at him with teary eyes, and pleaded, "Brother, you may not believe anything I say now, but time will tell. Take me with you, and after a while, you will see what kind of person I am."

The burly man shone his flashlight on Bai Lu's face and saw her face, which was covered in tears, delicate and fragile, breathtakingly beautiful.
