Chapter 65 When people are speechless, they are really speechless
The moment the iron door was pried open, the light from outside poured in like a tide.
It was not the soft moonlight, but the strong light unique to the rescue scene, bright white with a metallic texture, sharp enough to penetrate the dust and hit Yu Zhi's face directly.
The light outlined the contours of her dusty cheeks, and fine dust floated in the beam of light, like a hazy veil covering her.
Her sweat-soaked hair stuck to her temples, and a few strands of hair were dyed light gold by the light, making her originally pale skin look almost transparent.
This look is not as refined and neat as usual, but has a kind of broken beauty.
Under the illumination of the beam, it is more breathtaking than ever.
"Ayue..." Yu Zhi looked at the vague figure at the end of the light and a soft call came out of her throat.
She tried to stand up by holding on to the iron frame beside her. As her fingertips touched the cold metal, Xiaoshui's rapid alarm suddenly rang in her mind.
[Warning! Serious overdraft, about to enter a period of weakness!]
Nearly four hours of forced buff stacking has pushed her to her limit.
Yu Zhi's body suddenly stiffened.
Her limbs seemed to have the bones pulled out in an instant, and the strength quickly drained away through her fingertips.
All the fatigue that had been suppressed by the buff now came back like a tsunami, hitting her nerves hard.
Why now?
Yu Zhi told herself that she just had to hold on a little longer and she dug her nails deep into her palms, trying to use the pain to wake up her numb body.
She could see the familiar silhouette moving in the light, could hear his anxious cries through the dust.
Yu Zhi raised her hand with difficulty, and her fingertips could already feel the warmth of the light.
But physical weakness is force majeure.
Suddenly, everything went dark in front of my eyes, and the sound in my ears was like it was covered by a glass cover, buzzing.
Her last consciousness lingered on the light that was getting closer and closer, and the name that she had repeated countless times in her heart.
“Ah…”
She couldn't utter the last word, and her body fell straight forward as if all support was taken away.
The thugs were shocked by the situation, with the joy of being rescued still written on their faces, and they hurriedly surrounded Yu Zhi.
"Boss?!"
"Zhizhi!" On the other side of the light, Pei Yuezhou's beautiful eyes clearly reflected her figure falling down like a puppet with its strings cut.
At that moment, his heart felt like it was being tightly grasped by a hand, and the pain was so severe that he could hardly breathe.
"Get out of the way!" Pei Yuezhou suddenly pushed away Lin Zhi who was blocking him, and his voice trembled without him even noticing.
He crawled down through the newly pried-open gap, unaware of the sharp edges of the steel frame scraping his arms and the pain of gravel hitting his knees.
His distraught look with bloodshot eyes made the thugs shudder and they hurriedly retreated before he could get close.
Pei Yuezhou's aura was really too scary, like a demon crawling out of hell, ready to strangle their necks in the next second.
One of the younger thugs defended himself with a trembling voice: "We didn't do anything. She just collapsed on her own."
This is the truth, but saying it out loud at this moment seems to make things even more obvious.
The leader's face darkened, and he slapped him hard on the back of the head: "Idiot! Shut up!"
Pei Yuezhou was about to reach out to touch her when he suddenly realized something. He wiped his hands, which were covered in blood and dust, on his clothes before picking up Yu Zhi.
After I felt her steady pulse, the fear gradually faded away.
He didn't say a word, but just carefully hugged the person in his arms tighter.
"I'm here." He whispered in a voice that only the two of them could hear, and his fingertips gently brushed her sweaty hair, "Don't be afraid, we're home.
He held her in his arms and walked out of the warehouse step by step.
When Yu Heng outside saw this scene, his frown finally relaxed. He turned around and silently directed his men to clear a passage.
Yu Heng was about to command the rescue team to enter the underground warehouse to save the remaining people, but the man with a handsome appearance but extremely cruel methods slowly turned his face to him.
The moonlight made his skin look even whiter, and even the dust on it became a beautiful backdrop.
His voice was pleasant, yet it carried a chilling chill from hell: "Buried."
"Yes!" The mercenaries present responded loudly, which was particularly harsh in the silent night.
"You!" Yu Heng's pupils shrank, his face full of disbelief: "Pei Yuezhou, are you kidding me?"
The bodyguards of the Yu family were facing off against the mercenaries of the Pei family. They had lost all the unity they had just had during the rescue operation. The atmosphere was extremely tense, like a powder keg ready to explode.
"I say, bury them all alive." Pei Yuezhou's expression showed no sign of joking. The aura around him was so dangerous that it was suffocating. The look in his eyes when he looked at Yu Heng was cold and without a trace of warmth. "Brother."
Yu Heng's face was full of complicated expressions.
Seven years have passed, and the Pei Yuezhou in front of us is no longer the gentle and beautiful boy he used to be.
Those rumors about Pei Yuezhou's danger and ruthlessness are now so real before our eyes.
Yu Heng's unconditional defense of Pei Yuezhou in front of his friends before became a pale joke at this moment.
"Yuezhou, leave them to me."
Pei Yuezhou did not say a word, but his attitude was obvious.
Yu Heng's eyes swept over the slightly disheveled person in his arms. For a moment, he was even about to be shaken and almost fell into the abyss from which there was no escape.
At the critical moment, he clenched his fists, and the small scratches on his hands broke and bled because of his excessive force.
In the end, reason prevailed.
"They want to harm my sister. There's no way I'll let them go." Yu Heng took a step forward and spoke slowly, "Besides, compared to your method, that girl is more receptive to mine."
"Isn't it?"
This rhetorical question made Pei Yuezhou lower his eyes unconsciously. The eyelashes of the person in his arms trembled slightly, as if he had had an unsettling dream.
He unconsciously held the person a little tighter.
After a long silence, his slightly tired voice sounded: "Okay."
Yu Heng secretly breathed a sigh of relief and watched the figure get into the car with mixed feelings.
His assistant stepped forward and asked, "President, should we still save this person?"
Beneath the pried-open hole, there were the group of people's panicked cries for help.
Yu Heng frowned slightly and said in a bad tone, "Save him first, then we'll talk."
"OK."
With their master's statement, the Pei family's mercenaries didn't dare to stand in the way anymore. They came forward like good brothers and helped the Yu family's bodyguards on the opposite side.
The Yu family bodyguards looked at them with the same enthusiasm as the Sichuan Opera face-changing, and their expressions were speechless.
No, buddy, didn’t you just point a gun at our heads?
He's a chameleon, so changeable!
