Chapter 328: Beautiful and Delicate Orphan Girl 7
Situ Qian held the water bag and drank the water in small sips, when suddenly Gong Xiao stood up abruptly.
With a serious look on his face, he pulled Situ Qian behind him and looked around warily.
Soon, the people in black around them approached step by step with knives in hand.
Situ Qian nervously held Gong Xiao's sleeve, her fingertips turning white from exerting too much force.
"Hide well!" Gong Xiao instructed Situ Qian and started fighting with the black-clothed men around him with his bare hands.
Two fists are no match for four hands, not to mention that the other side has more people and weapons.
Soon Gong Xiao and Situ Qian were forced to the edge of the cliff.
A knife came slashing down, and Gong Xiao had no way to retreat. He stepped on empty air and fell off the cliff.
"Be careful!" Situ Qian suddenly reached out and grabbed Gong Xiao's hand.
The thin Situ Qian couldn't pull Gong Xiao at all, and she herself was pulled by Gong Xiao's weight and slowly slid towards the edge of the cliff.
If this continues, Situ Qian will also fall off the cliff.
"Let go, I won't implicate you." Gong Xiao said unwillingly.
As he said this, he released the hand that was holding Situ Qian.
Huh? Didn't fall? Gong Xiao looked at Situ Qian who was still holding on to him in astonishment.
"Hold on, don't give up." Situ Qian's tears fell right on Gong Xiao's face.
He stared at Situ Qian blankly.
She cried, but her crying was not unpleasant.
On the contrary, he felt a little distressed.
It seems that she really likes me and won't let me go even like this.
Suddenly, Gong Xiao's pupils trembled and he shouted, "Situ Qian, be careful!"
But it was too late, the black-clad man's long sword had already slashed towards Situ Qian's back.
Blood splattered, and Gong Xiao could almost feel the temperature of the blood dripping on his face.
Gong Xiao fell down, and in his panic, he saw the man in black draw out his knife and kick Situ Qian off the cliff.
No!
In the end, Gong Xiao could only faint due to the huge pain, feeling worried and angry.
Soon, the news that the emperor's younger brother, Prince Chen, was assassinated during an equestrian class and his whereabouts were unknown spread.
The current Queen Mother was so anxious that she vomited blood and fell into a coma.
The sky darkened and Gong Xiao was awakened by the pain in his hand.
As soon as I woke up, I saw a vulture gnawing at my hand.
Gong Xiao grabbed it quickly, accurately and ruthlessly, strangled it to death and threw it aside.
Where is she? Is she okay? Gong Xiao stood up despite the severe pain in his body and limped around to look for her.
Soon they found Situ Qian unconscious and covered in blood.
When Situ Qian opened his eyes again, he felt a burning pain in his back.
She tried to sit up, but fell back just a little bit, tearing her wound.
The pain made her cry.
Hearing the crying, Gong Xiao immediately limped back to the cave.
Situ Qian looked at Gong Xiao with tearful eyes.
Gong Xiao frowned as he looked at Situ Qian's pale face.
He clearly wanted to show concern, but asked in an awkward tone: "Why are you crying?"
"It hurts..." Situ Qian's forehead was already wet with sweat from the pain.
Gong Xiao stepped forward immediately and discovered that the wound on Situ Qian's back was bleeding.
"What are you moving about!" Gong Xiao looked at Situ Qian angrily.
Situ Qian was stunned by the yelling, and tears welled up in the next second.
She bit her lip and didn't cry out loud, but she cried so pitifully.
Seeing her crying again, Gong Xiao felt annoyed and irritated.
He didn't mean that...
"I order you not to cry!" Gong Xiao said in panic.
Situ Qian lowered her head and sobbed quietly.
Gong Xiao opened his mouth and scratched his head with one hand in annoyance.
After a while, Situ Qian raised her head, her face full of tears, and asked while crying:
"My Lord, are you injured as well? Does it hurt? Is it serious?"
Gong Xiao felt extremely guilty. She was a weak woman who was seriously injured and yet she was distracted by caring about herself.
But he yelled at her, he deserved to die!
Gong Xiao felt so guilty that he wanted to slap himself twice.
He could no longer restrain himself and gently hugged Situ Qian. "I'm sorry."
"..." There was no response from Situ Qian for a long time.
Just when Gong Xiao thought he would not get a response, he felt his shoulders wet with tears.
"I'm glad your Majesty is alright..."
The girl's voice was soft and caring, and it was so sweet to his heart.
From this moment on, Gong Xiao kept the girl in front of him in his heart for the rest of his life.
