This was the first time I had seen Su Chengzhaoâs cold and grim side. In the past, he had been as warm as the spring.
Suddenly the atmosphere became tense, and less than a moment later, I heard the man declare ruthlessly, âWell, letâs see if you can take this woman out today! Everyone, beat him!â
As soon as he stopped talking, I could hear footsteps and bestial words.
I panicked and grabbed Su Chengzhaoâs arm. He hugged me tightly. His voice was cold and angry. âEveryone, come in the room now!â
As soon as the words came to an end, chaotic footsteps and the angry voice of the man burst out. He didnât realize that Su Chengzhao had brought people along. At this moment, although I couldnât see it, I could hear the sounds of fighting all around.
âDonât be afraid. I wonât let anything happen to you.â Su Chengzhao hugged me tightly as my heart ached. He buried my head in his arms. I listened to his beating heart and murmured in a low voice, âIâm sorry...â
The murmuring voice was lost in this noisy and chaotic room. Su Chengzhao questioned, but the next second he suddenly snorted and loosened his arms.
I was thrown to the ground, and suddenly coldness and fear wrapped me up again.
âAre you OK? Where are you? Please talk to me?â I felt anxious and slapped around. The muffled hum hit my heart and my body trembled. I didnât know what happened to Su Chengzhao. Was he hurt?
I shook my head in a panic, and I could not stop crying. âDonât scare me, Chengzhao. Where are you?â
Just as I was stumbling forward in the dark, a strong cold wind came in my ear, and almost the next moment, I was held by a pair of powerful arms, and there was a muffled hum in my ear again.
The voice was familiar and strange. I touched his chest, but I was held tightly by a pair of big hands. The hoarse voice came into my ear and said, âIâm all right.â
âChengzhao, are you hurt?â I touched him in a panic, but found that his body was stiffened, and a sigh sounded over my head but no more voice came.
I anxiously opened my mouth and kept asking. Su Chengzhaoâs silence made me more frightened. Suddenly, a pain in the back of my neck swept over me with a dizziness. When I fainted, there was a sigh in my ear, mixed with the three words, âIâm sorry.â
The voice was so familiar and strange.
Are you Su Chengzhao?
But why do I feel it is not him.
Without much thought, I fainted.
When I woke up again, it was quiet. I didnât know where I was, and I didnât know what had happened to Su Chengzhao either.
I fumbled around and couldnât stop calling Su Chengzhaoâs name. Suddenly, my hands were wrapped in a big hand, and a warm voice sounded over my head. âI am here.â
Those two words relaxed my tense nerves. He took me to the bed. I grabbed his neck, but I heard him murmur something. Then there was something warm in my hand.
With a tremor in my heart, I took back my hand and hid it behind me. I whispered, âChengzhao, I am thirsty.â
Su Chengzhao hummed with no word and put me on the bed. I waited for a moment, and when the sound of footsteps faded, I put my hand near my nose which was full of bloody smell.
My heart ached. I held my hands tightly. I couldnât wait any longer. I staggered outside and shouted, âChengzhao, Su Chengzhao, where are you?â
