Jin Yanchen sat in a black Bentley, holding a red velvet box in his hand, stroking it with his fingertips. Thinking that he would see her soon, his thin lips curled up involuntarily.

Time passed by little by little. He glanced at the watch on his wrist. She should have arrived by now.

He picked up his phone and dialed Liang Hanyue's number.

No one answered the phone, and the cold "beep" sound made him feel a little uneasy.

After the call was automatically disconnected, he called Wu De again, but still no one answered.

A strong bad premonition came to his mind, and Jin Yanchen called his bodyguard again, but still no one answered.

He was completely panicked now, and raised his head and said, "Old He, hurry up..."

"Yes, Mr. Jin." Lao He stepped on the accelerator to the bottom and drove all the way.

Suddenly, the brakes were slammed on, and Jin Yanchen leaned forward. He quickly sat back down and asked, "What's going on?"

Old He said with a bad face: "Mr. Jin, this is Miss Liang and her friends' car."

Jin Yanchen's eyes suddenly tightened, he unbuckled his seat belt and quickly got out of the car.

There was no one in the car, and Wu De was lying on the cold asphalt road, his eyes fixed on the front.

"Wu De!" Jin Yanchen squatted down and grabbed his collar, not caring that his clothes were soaked with blood. His voice was tense and trembling, "Where's Liang Hanyue? Where is she?"

Wu De was barely breathing, his mouth clogged with blood, unable to utter a single word. He could only signal him with his eyes...

Jin Yanchen followed his gaze and looked towards the endless darkness ahead, as if his life over the past few years had been filled with nothing but coldness and darkness.

The only light is Liang Hanyue.

And now, this only light seems to be stripped away from my life.

"Old He, arrange for someone to take him to the hospital." Jin Yanchen put aside his martial ethics, stood up, and spoke in a calm and restrained voice, "Also, notify everyone to come here, even if it means transferring Qin Yishen, Gu Jingchen, and the others over here. The more the better!"

Lao He nodded and immediately called for reinforcements.

Jin Yanchen turned around to go back to the car, but he felt resistance as soon as he took a step. He turned around and saw Wu De tightly clutching his trouser legs.

There was moisture in the scarlet eyes, and he looked at himself as if he had a thousand words to say.

Jin Yanchen knew what he wanted to say. He squatted down and gently pushed his hand away. His voice was low and resolute, "I will save her, even if it means death!"

Hearing his promise, Wu De seemed to finally feel relieved and slowly closed his eyes.

Jin Yanchen turned around and got into the car, saying sternly, "Let's go."

Lao He had finished his call and quickly got into his car and sped away.

Jin Yanchen's blood-stained hands tightly grasped the red box, silently saying in his heart: Wait for me!

Liang Hanyue, you must wait for me.

*

When Liang Hanyue woke up, she was dragged out of the car. Because she had taken off her coat and was only wearing a black turtleneck sweater, she couldn't help sneezing several times when a cold wind blew towards her.

There was the sound of huge waves in my ears, and the air was filled with a strong salty and humid smell.

A group of people dragged her out of the road and walked on the winding and rugged stones. Liang Hanyue fell several times but was pulled up by them and continued to move forward.

Until a black figure came into view on a cliff near the sea.

Because the light was dim, Liang Hanyue couldn't see the other person's appearance until she approached and he turned his head.

"Jin Nuo!" Liang Hanyue's eyes flashed with surprise, but she quickly calmed down and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Jin Nuo did not answer, but asked: "Ms. Liang is so smart, she should have guessed it."

Liang Hanyue thought of Wu De still lying on the cold road, and her eyes suddenly turned red, tears welling up in her eyes, "You killed Wu De, why didn't you kill me too?"

Instead, he brought himself here from far away.

Jin Nuo smiled: "Because I want your death to be more meaningful."

Liang Hanyue frowned, "What do you mean?"

Jin Nuo did not answer, but raised his hand to give an order to his bodyguard.

The man immediately stepped forward, tied her hands and feet, and sealed her mouth with black tape.

Liang Hanyue wanted to speak but could only make whimpering sounds. In the eyes of a group of burly men, her struggling strength was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Not knowing what Jin Nuo wanted to do, she could only wait in the cold night wind.

The temperature was already below zero, and she was at the beach, so her body had already been frozen stiff.

I don’t know how long it took, but one car after another stopped on the side of the road, followed by flashing lights and noisy sounds.

Seeing Jin Yanchen's stern face in the dim light, Liang Hanyue's frozen heart gradually warmed, and mist appeared in her dry eyes again.

"Liang Hanyue..." Jin Yanchen's cold voice was filled with tension, and when he looked at Jin Nuo, his tone was as sharp as a knife, "Let her go."

Jin Nuo looked at his nervous expression and couldn't help laughing, "I never thought I would give birth to a romantic person."

Jin Yanchen didn't want to waste time talking and reiterated: "If you let her go, I will agree to whatever you ask for!"

Jin Nuo shook his head: "It's too late! I gave you a chance before, but you didn't cherish it. Now..."

He paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "You are no longer qualified to negotiate terms with me."

"Jin Nuo!" Jin Yanchen gritted his teeth and said, "Let her go, otherwise..."

"What else?" The moment Jin Nuo raised his eyes, the barrel of his men's gun was already pointed at Liang Hanyue's temple, pressing against it tightly.

"No!" Jin Yanchen's expression suddenly changed, "Don't touch her, you are not allowed to touch her!"

The last sentence was almost screamed out.

Liang Hanyue had never seen him lose his composure like this before.

The more out of control his emotions became, the colder Jin Nuo's eyes became. He said in a cold voice, "Do you think that sending those bodyguards to guard her every day will keep her safe? You are so naive!"

Jin Yanchen's eyes were gloomy. He knew that Liang Hanyue was in his hands now. He had no right to negotiate with him. He could only find a way to stabilize him first.

"You just want me to break up with her and marry the person you arranged. I can agree to that. But the premise is that Liang Hanyue must be alive and well."

Jin Nuo didn't believe him, but said in a low voice, "Do you think you still have a chance to bargain with me now?"

Without waiting for Jin Yanchen to speak, he sternly said, "Tell your men to put down their weapons."

Jin Yanchen remained silent and did not move.

Jin Nuo gave his men a look, and they immediately grabbed Liang Hanyue's hair and pulled it back. She had to look up, with the cold barrel of the gun still against her temple.

Liang Hanyue was in so much pain that tears were about to fall. When she looked at him, there was no fear or plea for help, only -

It’s so strong that I can’t bear to let it go.

Jin Nuo was determined to take his own life tonight, and Jin Yanchen... couldn't save himself.

"Put down your weapons." Jin Yanchen commanded, looking up at Jin Nuo, his gradually crimson eyes filled with hatred, "What do you want to do?"
