"Are you serious?" Su Meng's eyes widened, hardly believing her ears.
At that moment, a voice suddenly came from behind, gloomy and intimidating, "Su Meng, put her down."
Su Meng instantly became alert. She grabbed the rope and made herself and Xun Ting stand up. She couldn't help but sneer at herself for almost being tricked by Xun Ting.
How could they possibly let her go? Thinking of this, the malice in Su Meng's eyes intensified.
"Mr. Huo, you'd better not come any closer! Otherwise, I'll push your wife down right now, and we'll both die! My life is worthless, but your wife's life is precious..."
Su Meng's tone carried a hint of sarcasm, and she didn't believe that Huo Lingui wouldn't care about eavesdropping.
"Dare to touch her, and I'll make sure you die a horrible death." Huo Lin's eyes were cold, and he exuded a gloomy aura. His hands were clenched into fists; it was his oversight.
This gave Su Meng a chance to escape!
"Hehe, Mr. Huo, do you think I'm afraid of dying a gruesome death? Even if I release Xunting now, I won't survive. I understand that without you having to tell me!"
For the first time, Huo Lin felt powerless. His dark eyes were fixed on Su Meng's hand, as if afraid that if she made a single move, the little liar would fall.
Even though Gu Zhu has already arranged for a rescue team, it's still... so high up, even a bump or knock could cause injury.
"Let her go, and you'll live."
"Heh, Master Huo and Xun Ting use exactly the same tricks to deceive people! I'm afraid I'll be the first one to die if I release him!" Su Meng sneered.
She gripped the rope tightly, and without hesitation, pushed the person down.
Then he jumped down himself.
Seeing this, Huo Lin quickly jumped down, hugged the woman tightly, and held Xun Ting in his arms. The path they tumbled down was full of stones.
The man snorted loudly.
The two then fell into the sea.
The man gritted his teeth, enduring the pain, and swam towards Gu Zhu's boat while holding the woman tightly.
Gu Zhu also sped up the boat and quickly rescued the two people quietly. Huo Lin's forehead was covered in cold sweat and his body was covered in blood, making it impossible to see where he was injured or not.
After the ropes binding her were untied, she couldn't wait to approach the man. Seeing his blood-covered appearance, tears streamed down her face.
How could he be so good?
I remember when I rolled down, my nostrils were filled with the smell of male hormones. I thought that with so many big rocks along the way, it would definitely hurt if I bumped into one.
But she didn't even get the slightest scratch; Huo Lin had always protected her very well.
"Don't cry, it's alright." Huo Lin's pale lips curved slightly as he raised his bloodied hand, wanting to wipe away the woman's tears, but the pain made him hang down weakly.
He closed his eyes, and his consciousness gradually faded.
"Huo Lin, wake up! Open your eyes! You're the main villain in the book! You can't be! You haven't been defeated by the male lead yet! You can't die! You can't ruin the plot!"
As she listened, tears streamed down her face. She said, "I dare not touch the villain."
The villain was covered in blood and wounds. She could have simply left Gu Zhu waiting for her down there instead of jumping down.
To protect her...
Xun Ting felt even more distressed. In this book, he was merely indulging in a healthy body, enjoying delicious food and entertainment, and never intended to get involved with these people.
In her view, no matter how powerful the villains and the male protagonist are, they are just characters in a book; they are fake and do not exist. But at this moment, she truly feels that they exist.
The villain was willing to roll down from so many rocks for her sake.
