I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

How could this be considered abandoning her? They had broken the impasse together.

Jiang Huashan was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized a problem. Shen Guiling did not have her perspective. In his opinion, Shen Lanxi and Shen Qingyu both had the ability to take care of themselves, but she did not. He was now a 99% fish, and it was impossible for him to abandon her.

But the killers were coming for her. If she went to the stone bridge with Shen Guiling, the killers would work together with the pirates and they would have no chance of winning.

We must find a way to convince Shen Guiling.

"Shen..."

Just as she opened her mouth, Shen Guiling interrupted her directly, "Don't say anything, even if grandpa is here now, he will definitely support my approach."

"..."

Even grandpa moved out.

"Staying in the water all the time isn't a good idea. I'll lead them away later, and you find a chance to hide. That room isn't safe, so don't go back there."

Shen Guiling looked up at the sky and prepared to get up.

"Shen Guiling!" Jiang Huashan grabbed his arm and pressed him against the tree with his shoulders.

"..." Shen Guiling's heart skipped a beat and he scolded softly, "Come down."

Jiang Huashan plucked a piece of grass from the ground and handed it over. "I didn't bring the last page of the bookmark at home, so I'll use this to replace it."

Shen Guiling frowned, anger in his eyes, "Jiang Huashan."

Jiang Huashan ignored him directly, suppressing not only his body but also his voice, refusing to allow any further comment. "Go find Shen Qingyu at the stone bridge."

"Boom——"

Purple lightning struck down from the sky, and the dark and desolate manor suddenly became as bright as day. The light and shadow in that instant allowed them to see each other's eyes clearly.

How can a person with discord in his heart look at the stars?

Shen Guiling was the first to be defeated. His originally rising anger was inexplicably extinguished. He felt somewhat helpless, and his voice softened a lot. "Why do you want me to rush back even if you don't even want to live?"

Jiang Huashan hesitated for a moment, a look of determination flashing in his eyes, "Because this is more important to me than my life."

After five years of living together, she was willing to gamble that Shen Lanxi, Shen Guiling, and Shen Qingyu were definitely not the murderers of her grandfather. In their previous life, they were divided and each had its own business, which allowed the thieves to take advantage. But if in this life, they had no suspicion and infighting, they would definitely protect her grandfather with their lives, just like she did.

Shen Guiling half-closed his eyelids, his mouth was tight and he said nothing.

Jiang Huashan, "There's something I haven't had time to tell you. Suir has been kidnapped."

Shen Guiling was stunned, and a dark light flashed in his eyes.

"Shen Guiling, do you believe me?"

Shen Guiling raised his eyes and looked at her with complicated expressions. He knew that she would definitely find a way to persuade him next.

Jiang Huashan, "I will be fine, because no one in this world can kill me except myself."

Shen Guiling looked at her and didn't respond.

Jiang Huashan raised an eyebrow, "Don't believe it? Then I'll prove it to you."

With that, she turned and rushed out of the tree, standing in the open space with no shelter, waving her hands and shouting at the lakeshore, "Hit me, idiot!"

"boom--"

A gunshot rang out, and Jiang Huashan stood there motionless. The bullet broke through the heavy rain and passed by her ear.

"!"

Shen Guiling had no idea what she was doing. By the time she realized what was happening, her hands and feet were cold and she was extremely upset.

Jiang Huashan immediately rushed back to his side and raised an eyebrow, "You saw it, even if I stood still, they couldn't hit me, but if it was you, it might not be the same."

Shen Guiling's face was gloomy.

"If you don't believe me, I'll try again."

As he said this, he prepared to run away again.

Shen Guiling closed his eyes, grabbed her wrist, and said with a sour feeling in his throat, "I believe it."

He was so smart that he realized someone was setting up a trap to sow discord from the moment Jiang Huashan asked him to go back.

But they are already in the game and there is no turning back.

Just like him now, knowing that it was a trap, he could only make the best of it, because he didn't dare to gamble. If he went back to pick up Shen Qingyu, and Shen Qingyu was not at the stone bridge, what would he do? In the final analysis, he didn't believe that Shen Qingyu and Shen Lanxi would stick to their promise, especially at the cost of leaving Jiang Huashan behind.

He had made his choice long ago, but he never expected Jiang Huashan to play by his own rules, forcing him to not dare to disbelieve it.

Jiang Huashan shook the grass in his hand and said, "Shen Guiling, let's break the deadlock together. Try my method, maybe the rain will stop soon."

Shen Guiling hummed, raised his hand to pick up her drooping hair, and with a flick of his fingertips, he hooked out the bear hairband hidden on his wrist and tied it into a ponytail. Before Jiang Huashan could react, he took the grass from her hand with an expressionless face.

"Don't break your promise."

A tower two thousand meters away.

"Fuck! I missed again. Who is this woman? I chased her all night and all the bullets were blanks. If this gets out, how am I going to survive in the underworld?" The man lurking in the dark frowned and stood up to wipe the raindrops off the scope.

Xia Xingchen held up the telescope and scanned the lakeshore. "She just stood there without moving? Don't you claim to be able to hit the target within 3,000 meters?"

At this point, the man became even more enraged. He raised his gun and aimed at the lakeshore. Coincidentally, a toad jumped onto the shore as the lake was flooding. The man pulled the trigger, and the toad was gutted in the instant it was in mid-air.

"I see. My marksmanship is fine. It's that woman who's weird. Forget it. How about killing someone else?"

Xia Xingchen said indifferently, "The boss is determined to kill her. If you replace her, who will you ask for your wages?"

The man looked unlucky. If he had known that today would be the Waterloo of his career, he should have raised the price.

"Ah Chen."

As they were talking, two more people came up the tower. One of them was soaked to the skin and even his hood was taken off.

"That little girl is so powerful, Ah Sheng almost fell into her trap."

Xia Xingchen glanced at the man called Ah Sheng calmly, "Where's your hood?"

The man looked embarrassed. He had originally thought that a little girl was nothing to worry about, but he didn't expect that she would be ambushed and almost drowned underwater. The girl also took the opportunity to snatch his hood.

Xia Xingchen, "Did she see you?"

Ah Sheng shook his head. "It was very dark underwater at the time. She probably didn't see it clearly."

Seeing this, his companions changed the subject and said, "That girl went to Beiyuan. Let's go after her."

The sniper clicked his tongue and began to put away his gun. Xia Xingchen didn't say anything else. The two of them secretly exchanged glances and hurried down the bamboo building.

Xia Xingchen took out a silenced gun from his pocket and shot Asheng in the head.

"Ah Chen! What are you doing?"

The man who was traveling with him was startled and looked at the culprit with horror.

Xia Xingchen stepped over Ah Sheng's body as if nothing had happened. "He can get a lot of money if he dies now. If the boss knew that he had revealed the secret, not only would he die, but neither would we."

The sniper said indifferently, "Let's go! If Fatty runs away, all our work tonight will be in vain."
