Chapter 693 She is here to save people, not to be buried with them
Several speedboats soon appeared on the sea near the Shisanwan Wharf.
Those patrolling the dock quickly boarded the speedboat. A few more people were watching the excitement at Shisanwan Wharf, but few were willing to meddle.
"Old Chen, they're catching up."
Qiao Xi's tone was calm, but her furrowed brows revealed the uneasiness in her heart.
"Don't be afraid, Madam. I'm certified in all fields of navigation. I'll go to the wheelhouse to relieve the captain. You just wait here."
"good."
Qiao Xi had no doubt about Lao Chen's loyalty and ability.
She looked at the airships speeding towards her outside the cruise ship's glass windows, and her mouth became even drier.
"Wan Jiang, do you have any other manpower? If we let them keep chasing us like this, we will be caught sooner or later."
Wan Jiang finally took a breath, holding the nearly unconscious Zhong Yi in his arms as he looked at the speedboats outside and said, "There are regulations for going out to sea. Those speedboats can only go a maximum of 20 nautical miles from the shore, but our cruise ship can go a distance of three days and nights. This means..."
As long as they could get through the next twenty nautical miles, they might be safe.
Qiao Xi asked in return, "They even dare to kill people, so how can they abide by the rules of going out to sea?"
Wan Jiang opened his mouth, but felt that whatever he said would be pale and powerless.
yes.
They are not even afraid of killing people, so why would they follow such ridiculous regulations?
Having finally had such an opportunity, it was natural to kill them all and hit them with one strike. If Young Master Zhong was not dead, he would definitely seek revenge!
"Miss Qiao, I was the one who called and dragged you into this. If they want to hurt you, they'll have to step over my dead body. I'll protect you at the risk of my life. Please take care of our young master first. I'll go out and contact the various forces."
Wan Jiang has selfish motives.
He knew the relationship between Zhong Yi and Qiao Xi.
If Qiao Xi didn't come, he would reveal everything about Master Zhong's identity.
At that time, Qiao Xi will definitely come!
Out of old friendship and also because of her identity as a doctor.
But if this call was made to Huo Xingzhou, he might not come, and might even hide it from Qiao Xi.
After all, they are rivals in love, and there is no affection between them when they get along with each other.
and……
Qiao Xi looked at him and said, "Do you have anyone you can trust in the entire imperial capital right now? Are those trustworthy people capable of resisting tonight's situation? Can your most loyal bodyguards under Master Zhong withstand it? Or do you need to ask the Lu family for help?"
Her questions were like a hammer that smashed a hole in Wan Jiang's heart.
A cool breeze was blowing.
The Zhong family was in internal strife, but the old man turned a blind eye.
Because Young Master Zhong had previously angered the old man because of his plans for Miss Qiao, the old man wanted to teach Young Master Zhong a lesson.
Actually speaking.
After all, the Zhong family is biased towards the direct bloodline.
In the entire imperial capital, how many people dare to get involved in the Zhong family's mess?
How many people are capable of getting involved?
Most of their manpower has been tied up by the eldest young master and the Pei family. Who could have thought that these two parties would join forces!
Wan Jiang looked dejected.
He opened his mouth to speak out about that selfish decision.
Now that Qiao Xi is here, will Huo Xingzhou just leave her alone?
But Qiao Xi took out her phone and handed it to him, "Call Huo Xingzhou and tell him what happened tonight. All the details, the other party's deployment, and all your actions at Shisanwan Wharf."
Only her cell phone was more convincing.
Only Huo Xingzhou can save Zhong Yi.
The text messages Qiao Xi sent on the road never received a reply. She guessed that Huo Xingzhou was probably busy with social events and didn't see it.
Tonight is very important for Tianyuan Group.
This is the Huo family's first step into the imperial capital.
If it wasn't absolutely necessary, she wouldn't let Wan Jiang make this call.
This debt belonged to her alone.
Wan Jiang looked at Qiao Xi, tears in his eyes. "Miss Qiao, I will never forget your kindness. If you need me in the future, just let me know! I will do my best to help you!"
He won the bet!
Win a chance of survival for Master Zhong!
Qiao Xi paused, but ultimately did not express any regret.
She looked down at Zhong Yi, who was lying in the huge cabin with her eyes closed.
"I will take good care of your Master Zhong. At least keep him alive until this is over. Just do whatever you need to do. Don't waste time. Every minute and every second you fight for is fighting for him."
"yes."
Wan Jiang hurried out with his cell phone, ready to call Huo Xingzhou.
Qiao Xi looked down at the blood oozing from Zhong Yi's wound and gave him another injection.
He is already unconscious.
The interior of this luxury cruise ship is exquisite in every way.
The floor is covered with soft cashmere carpet, but in order to save fuel, there is no heating.
Zhong Yi was lying on the carpet, and the blood oozing from his body was almost staining the carpet red.
Qiao Xi stood up and searched the cruise ship.
Finally, I found a cabinet full of medicines.
If a cruise ship goes out to sea, everything will be prepared. First aid kits and medicines will definitely be there.
Fortunately, she found it.
Just no anesthetic.
She could only use acupuncture to paralyze some of his nerves. Although the effect was not as good as anesthesia, it was better than nothing.
"Zhong Yi, I'll treat your knife wound now."
He also had a gunshot wound in his leg, which she had no tools to treat.
She took a deep breath and cut all over his shirt.
I wiped the blood off his body with alcohol cotton, and the exposed wound was covered with blood and flesh, looking bloody and mangled.
There were still old scars on his body, and no one knew how they were left.
There is even a scar right on the heart.
I don’t know how many dangers I have experienced.
The alcohol stimulated Zhong Yi's brows, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat, which looked very painful.
"Just bear with it a little longer."
Qiao Xi whispered comfortingly.
Pop.
Zhong Yi's hand suddenly grabbed her wrist, and his passionate eyes slowly opened and looked at her: "Did you know this would happen when you came?"
Qiao Xi unfolded the gauze in circles, lowered her head and said, "I know."
"You know you might... die?" His voice was weak, but his eyes were looking at her seriously.
Want an answer.
"Know."
Qiao Xi bandaged his wound meticulously.
"Haven't you thought about Huo Xingzhou?" Zhong Yi wanted to ask, between me and Huo Xingzhou, did you still choose me?
At this time, people become much braver.
Things that I usually don’t dare to say, I now have the courage to say them at this time.
He has been holding it in for so many years.
"Xixi, didn't you think about Huo Xingzhou when you came here? If you died here..."
"I have thought about it."
Qiao Xi looked at him and said, "Back then, you went up the mountain to collect herbs for me and fell off a cliff and died. I owe you a life. Even though I know you faked your death, you must have been dying, seriously injured and unconscious. So, I will consider this life as returning it to you."
Her mind was clear. "You and I are one thing, Huo Xingzhou and I are another. You and I are another thing, Huo Xingzhou and I are another. We can't be confused."
She moved her hands harder and tied the gauze.
Zhong Yi groaned in pain.
Even breathing hurt the wound.
Qiao Xi lowered her voice and said, "Don't talk for now, and get some rest. I don't know how long this night will last, so I'll go back and take revenge while I'm still alive. But don't let those people succeed. And I..."
She also wanted to keep her life and go back to see Huo Xingzhou.
She came to save people.
Not buried with the dead.
