A kiss, and I'll live another day; they begged me not to go crazy.

The instant their lips touched,

Su Aige clearly heard the system's notification sound about the increase in her balance.

At the same time, she was pleasantly surprised to find that her body was gradually regaining some strength.

The arms that were originally hanging limply were now able to be raised slightly.

A barely perceptible smile crept onto her pale lips.

......

Su Aige keenly sensed a sudden stiffness coming from below, as if time had frozen at that moment.

She remained silent, maintaining her original posture, greedily wanting to stay in touch a little longer.

......

As time went on, she gradually felt a clearer sense of control over her body.

Finally, when that clear sense of control completely took over, she slowly pulled away from the other person's lips.

......

However, before she could even catch her breath...

After my vision cleared completely, my thoughts also returned to clarity.

A strong sense of unease instantly welled up in my heart.

It was pitch black all around, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, and he was in Guo Si's arms!

......

"Oh my god, am I in Guo Si's arms?"

What about Wang Er?

The thought flashed through Su Aige's mind like lightning, making her gasp.

Then, another terrifying thought followed:

"Could it be...

Did all my efforts, even exhausting all my points, go to waste?

Thinking of this, her body involuntarily stiffened.

He turned his head with difficulty, his eyes anxiously searching for Wang Er's figure.

......

Just then, by the faint light, she finally spotted Wang Er's trail.

Wang Er was soaking wet.

Like a drowned rat, it was clinging tightly to the back of an unexpected person.

They could clearly hear hurried footsteps behind them, and the three of them were desperately fleeing in a certain direction.

And that unexpected person

It turned out to be the little beggar that Su Aige had summoned during the day with only a few copper coins and two vegetarian buns to guide her!

......

The little beggar, who originally looked haggard and frail, now displayed astonishing strength and agility.

Despite carrying the heavy burden of Wang Er on his back,

But he still moved with incredible speed, not falling behind at all, and was even able to keep up with Guo Siqian, who was carrying Su Aige.

......

At that moment, the hurried footsteps behind them grew closer and closer.

Like a death knell, it shook people to their core.

The situation was extremely critical, leaving no room for hesitation, let alone stopping to talk.

Su Aige's mind raced as she considered what to do.

Fortunately, her close contact with Guo Si helped her regain her strength, which undoubtedly gave her a glimmer of hope and courage.

......

Right now,

Guo Si's heart was like a bottle of mixed flavors that had been overturned, with all sorts of feelings intertwined, making it difficult for him to calm down.

When he witnessed Su Aige leap into the raging river without hesitation to rescue Wang Er,

He knew that his love story had come to an end and it was time for him to leave the stage and take his final bow.

......

After tonight's series of thrilling events, the truth has become as clear as the sun breaking through the clouds.

All the trouble is coming at him!

Poor Wang Er and kind-hearted Su Aige were completely caught in the crossfire, unwittingly dragged into this turmoil.

Looking at Wang Er, who was lying motionless and quietly on the little beggar's back,

A strong sense of guilt welled up in Guo Si's heart, as if a million ants were gnawing at his heart.

......

He couldn't help but think to himself:

Why don't we just go out and reveal our identities?

Anyway, someone as insignificant as myself is probably not someone in this world who would really care.

And so it quietly disappeared from the world.

Perhaps he could save the woman he loved and the two innocent lives beside him, and also give himself some closure.

......

However, just when he was in despair, Su Aige's passionate kiss...

But like the first ray of sunshine in spring, it instantly pierced through layers of gloom and rekindled his heart, which had been dead.

In that instant, he felt as if he could hold on for one more day.

Even if it's just to experience one more day of warmth and beauty in this world.

......

But his inherent pride wouldn't allow him to live such a humble and subservient life.

Especially when he heard Su Aige resolutely express her willingness to stay and draw away the pursuers.

......

Su Aige spoke in an unquestionable tone:

"Take Wang Er to get him treated quickly, he can't wait any longer. This young man and I will distract them."

Su Aige's words struck a chord with Guo Si.

His heart felt like it was in a pot of boiling oil, suddenly becoming scalding hot.

But he would never let the woman he deeply loves sacrifice herself for him.

......

The little beggar felt a surge of excitement when he heard Su Aige mention him.

He understood that this might be the opportunity to change his fate.

So he quickly said, "My esteemed guest, my name is Liu Zi."

His voice carried a hint of nervousness and anticipation.

......

Seeing that Liu Zi didn't seem to mind her arrangement, Su Aige continued:

"Alright, I'll go with Xiaoliuzi to lure them away!"

However, when she saw Guo Si's disapproving look, she met his gaze without hesitation.

Su Aige spoke firmly:

"Don't worry, I have this!"

As she spoke, she reached into her bosom and pulled out the jade pendant that the emperor had given her the night before.

......

Although the night was deep, the faint moonlight illuminated the scene.

Guo Si could still clearly see the lifelike five-clawed golden dragon on the jade pendant.

His heart skipped a beat; although he didn't recognize the jade pendant,

But just by looking at the patterns carved on it, one can guess that it must have an extraordinary origin.

......

In fact, Su Aige had no intention of using this jade pendant at all.

Although the pursuers might be wary of the emperor's orders, Su Aige still preferred to use a safer method.

She remembered another time when she did a live stream with Wang Er, and a prop given by a guest hadn't been used yet.

That's perfect for the current situation!

The reason for saying this at this time was actually just to reassure Guo Si so that she could take Wang Er to receive treatment.

......

For a moment, Guo Si fell silent.

In fact, he was well aware of how much Su Aige valued Wang Er.

He also knew that if he didn't treat Wang Er quickly, all of Su Aige's efforts today would be in vain.

......

But what ultimately made him decide was what Su Aige said next:

"I know very well who all of this is aimed at today."

But that is absolutely not a reason for me to disregard my companions' lives!

I assure you, I will never hand you over unless I die!

......

Su Aige stared intently at Guo Si, her eyes filled with an unquestionable expression.

She knew the situation was extremely critical.

But no matter what, she could not stand by and watch her companions fall into danger.

Even at a great cost, she was determined to protect everyone's safety.

......

Su Aige stared intently at Guo Si.

His eyes revealed concern and determination:

"Whether it's Wang Er or you, if misfortune befalls either of us, I will never be at peace with myself for the rest of my life!"
