The first thing he did after regaining his strength was to push Sidu aside, snatch the roast meat in front of him, and stuff it all into his mouth.

Sidu roasted a few more strips.

Faced with the prospect of survival, the two temporarily ceased hostilities.

“It’s been almost a week,” Ye Xingshu said after finishing her meal. “Has Brother Du not contacted the outside world?”

"I gave instructions before I came in: no one is allowed to come in unless there's a reason."

"...Block your own path and let others catch you off guard?" Ye Xingshu was speechless.

Si Du: "Then why did you come along? Was it because of what Gu Hancheng said?"

Do you choose to escape because you don't want to get involved in those conspiracies and trivial matters?

The thought of Ye Xingshu boarding the helicopter because of Gu Hancheng's words made Si Du's mood anything but pleasant.

The meat I chewed tasted different.

"Didn't Brother Du say he was going to give me a gift?" Ye Xingshu ate another piece of meat.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, and his face turned pale.

Sidu suddenly stared at her. "What's wrong with you?"

Ye Xingshu raised her hand and pointed at him: "Brother Du, you're so ruthless! You licked the meat with your mouth, didn't you..."

After saying that, his eyes rolled back and he fell backward.

I was carelessly poisoned!

"Ye Xingshu!"

Sidu dropped the meat in his hand, helped the person up, and found the person in his arms sleeping peacefully.

Just like that time in the dungeon.

It collapsed just like that.

Is Ye Xingshu playing tricks on him again...?

*

Dawn breaks.

The bright red sun slowly rose from the horizon, and the wound had completely healed.

As the first rays of sunlight appeared, Ye Xingshu lowered her legs and patted the lion beside her.

She stood up, gazing at the world bathed in golden light, and a gentle, warm smile appeared on her lips.

On the day they escaped, they too walked from the darkness of dawn towards the sunlight!

That year, she finally escaped the darkness of hell as she had wished.

Although she later ventured back into darkness several times, she no longer felt anything about it.

Happy birthday, Ye Xingshu!

The blood-stained hand was raised, its gaze lingering on the warm light shining through the void.

From that year until now, she has been struggling in the darkness for fifteen years.

She regarded the day she was rescued at the age of four as a new beginning!

That was the day her life restarted.

For a brief moment, a glimmer of light shone directly into the dark abyss.

Later, that glimmer of light was quickly swallowed up by the surging darkness and could never be found again.

She took out her cell phone from her pocket and called Wang Yin: "Book me an international flight. I want to go to the capital of Z country."

"Are you sure?" There was a hint of seriousness in his gentle voice.

"Send it over when it's done."

Ye Xingshu didn't waste any words with him.

"Wait a minute," the voice hurriedly called out to her, "I'll get it done for you as soon as possible."

Ye Xingshu narrowed her dark eyes sharply and quickly hung up the phone.

Something happened at the Death Instruction site!

My phone suddenly rang again.

Ye Xingshu looked at the unfamiliar international number and smiled.

A smile tinged with melancholy.

She sat back down on the dirty, bloodstained sofa, crossed her long legs, and adopted an arrogant posture.

The lion lay down at her feet again.

Good morning, Mrs. Mu.

There was a brief silence on the other end, but Ye Xingshu was not surprised to guess his identity.

A cool, clear voice followed: "Xiao Shu."

"Does Madam Mu lack confidence in her husband's family's strength, or is she worried that my stain on their reputation will ruin the peace of several families? Or is she simply afraid of me?"

"Don't blame me." The voice was cold.

"How could that be? I thank you for bringing me into this world," Ye Xingshu said sarcastically. "You're very uneasy, aren't you? I'm like a time bomb, ready to appear and take your life at any moment."

“You shouldn’t have investigated us,” the ruthless voice seemed to sigh, “and you shouldn’t have come to the capital.”

"It shouldn't have been born, right?"

"Yes."

Ye Xingshu laughed, and finally burst out laughing.

The wind around them suddenly stopped.

The lion, lying on the ground, let out a low growl.

A sense of melancholy crept up from the laughter.

The laughter stopped suddenly!

Instead, a chilling murderous aura emanated from him: "We'll meet soon."

The woman who abandoned her never intended to kill her.

Ironically, the other party turned around and killed her?

Ye Xingshu smiled coldly, pulled out the card, and snapped it in half!

Fear it.

They were terrified that she might appear at any moment and kill them!

She needs to be more powerful.

……

The moment Ye Xingshu closed her eyes again, she was given a breath and then opened her eyes instantly.

Their eyes met, inches apart, in an eerie silence!

Si Du was kissing Ye Xingshu's lips, his body stiff as if it weren't his own.

Ye Xingshu's dark eyes, which had been filled with murderous intent, were slowly replaced by a wicked smile. "Brother Du, if you want to kiss me, just be open and honest. There's no need to sneak around."

Sidu, stiff as a board, felt a vein throb on his forehead: "..."

Ye Xingshu's soft, thin lips pressed against his, and as she spoke, the friction between her lips sent a tingling, electric current through him.

Sidu braced himself on either side of her, creating some distance between them.

His dark eyes were downcast and his face was grim. He gritted his teeth and said, "You've been playing me all along!"

"Don't get excited, it's bad for your liver," Ye Xingshu poked his firm chest with her finger. "Life is meaningless without excitement, isn't it?"

Si Du braced himself with one hand and grabbed her flailing hand with the other, pressing her down. "You like excitement so much? I'll give you that!"

He leaned down and bit down on Ye Xingshu's neck.

The stinging pain brought a deep smile to Ye Xingshu's lips. She pressed down on Si Du's head, her voice barely audible, "I will live to see you die!"

Her head seemed to bump into something, and her gaze turned to see a lotus flower shimmering with golden light. She picked it up and held it in front of her eyes, where it shone with the starlight that rivaled the jewels of the sky.

At that moment, the golden lotus was so dazzling!

Looking at her pretty face, she asked, "What is this?"

Sidu bit her neck, looked up and saw the golden lotus in her hand, and a fleeting unnatural expression crossed his handsome face.

"Golden Lotus".

"Brother Du always carries it with him? Is it a token of love between him and Miss Sheng?" Ye Xingshu stared at him.

Sidu's face darkened for a moment. "Why are you so keen on treating her as one of my own?"

"She's not one of yours?"

"A person in another sense, yes." But not in the sense of romantic love.

Si Du looked at Ye Xing Shu beneath him, who was bathed in starlight and golden light, and had a strange attraction to her.

She twirled the golden lotus in her hand, the shimmering golden light making her face even more enchanting, and a captivating pleasure arose within her without her noticing.

Sidu turned around and sat down next to him.

Ye Xingshu looked at the golden lotus in her hand and suddenly guessed a certain possibility. She was somewhat surprised, and then looked at Si Du with a half-smile: "This wouldn't happen to be the gift that Brother Du was talking about, would it?"

Ye Xingshu propped her head up with one hand, turned to look at Si Du with a smile.

The golden lotus in her hand spun even faster!

A secret pleasure emanated from her.

Sidu stiffly avoided her gaze, looking instead at the restless lizard in the distance.

Ye Xingshu, in a good mood, pressed on, "How much?"

Sidu got up, walked to the extinguished fire, and piled up the nearly rotten dry branches nearby to start a fire again.

Regardless of Ye Xingshu's opinion, she remained silent.

Ye Xingshu blinked and sat up: "Ninety-nine flowers? Tsk tsk, Brother Du, you don't have a crush on me, do you? That won't do, I'm a fickle person, I fall in love with every girl I meet, it will hurt you."

"One mu (unit of land area)."

Sidu gritted his teeth and gave his answer.

He knew that if he didn't tell her, Ye Xingshu would keep asking him endlessly.

Ye Xingshu paused in her flower-twirling motion, then stared intently at Si Du, who was diligently starting a fire, her gaze complex.

Suddenly, I felt that the golden flower in my hand was very hot.

"Brother Du, next time you kill me, use gold bars. I'll be happy to throw as many as you want." Just don't waste them in the desert.

The thought of a densely packed acre of golden lotus flowers filled Ye Xingshu with heartache.

She regretted not going with them.

Si Du coldly said, "How about I lock you in the vault?"

"I'll switch careers and become a master thief."

They specialize in stealing the gold vaults of the Sidu!

"A notorious womanizer?" Si Du looked her up and down, smiled contemptuously, and said, "With your build, could you even manage to pick any flowers?"

Ye Xingshu: "..."

Du Ge is getting worse and worse.

Ye Xingshu picked up the unique golden lotus in her hand again, her gaze both serious and complex.

I never imagined that the first birthday gift I would receive would be from Sidu.

Although I didn't actually get them all.

With slender fingers like flying hairpins, she pushed the golden lotus out and it landed firmly in the sand. The fine sand slid across it, rippling like water.

This makes Jinlian look even more lifelike!

Such a beautiful thing, spread out over an acre, must surely conceal a crisis.

Despite the danger, Ye Xingshu was still quite curious to see what Si Du had hidden in this for her.

Pity……

*

He spent the night huddled by the fire.

The next day, Ye Xingshu was full of energy again.

Whether it was because he had come into contact with Ye Xingshu's blood or not, Si Du looked no different from usual.

Ye Xingshu touched her neck, then fastened the golden lotus to her waist.

Sidu put away the knife he was using to cut the meat, turned around and saw her doing this, and his heart stirred slightly.

Bathed in the morning light, the golden lotus radiated a noble glow, making Ye Xingshu's face appear exceptionally vivid!

Ye Xingshu is indeed very suitable for gold.

"Da da da……"

On the desert horizon, a helicopter slowly rose and headed straight for them.

Ye Xingshu suddenly looked up at Si Du: "You didn't kill them?"

“They must be from the wasteland.” Sidu’s expression darkened.

"So you're saying you came for me?" Ye Xingshu suddenly jumped up and kicked Si Du away. "Brother Du, good luck! We'll meet again someday!"

Sidu gritted his teeth, supporting his aching back as he stood up, a chilling laugh escaping his lips. "Little devil, just you wait!"

Ye Xingshu possesses strong mental strength, recovers quickly, and even seems to have inexhaustible energy.

She turned around, bent down and grabbed the lizard that was running alongside her as she ran, held it up to her eyes, and the lizard and she made eye contact. "Which way is faster? Tell me quickly."

She pinched the lizard's thick neck.

The lizard opened its mouth, flicked its tail, and pointed in the direction of Sidu.

Ye Xingshu: "..."

If you want me dead, just say so.

The relentless pursuit swept towards Sidu.

Ye Xingshu decided to take a different path and tossed the flying lizard into her hand.

Under the scorching sun, Ye Xingshu ran faster than a lizard on the ground.

Soon they spotted a desert wolf ahead. It was about to charge at Ye Xingshu when it saw the helicopter chasing from the other side, so it turned and ran.

Ye Xingshu immediately followed it, running around the same route.

She turned her head and glanced at it, confirming that it wasn't the same plane that had attacked Sidu.

It's a different group.

After much thought, the only things she could think of besides the group that bled people out and the Gu family were Wang Nuo's connections.

As she ran, Ye Xingshu saw the sparse grass ahead and the increasingly dense animals around her, and knew that she had crossed the edge of the desert.

Beyond the sandy land, there is a wide desert river.

Without hesitation, Ye Xingshu plunged into the water. The helicopter that rushed up behind her had already disappeared from sight.

Inside the helicopter, a face that looked like it deserved a beating was revealed.

If Ye Xingshu were here, she would definitely recognize this person!
