Chapter 856 - 606: Extra—A Pledge with Life
Chapter 856 - 606: Extra—A Pledge with Life
Bai Ye looked up at him, "Really?"
"I swear by my life," Song Xuyao said.
Bai Ye lit a cigarette and took a deep drag, "How do I know what you’re saying is true or false? What if I really sacrifice myself during this mission?"
It’s a very cruel topic, no one can guarantee this mission will be completed successfully, no one can guarantee everyone will succeed and retreat safely.
"If you don’t want to continue as an undercover agent, I can report to the higher-ups now, let you come back, let you leave, but if we don’t take down everyone who knows your background, will they let you go?" Song Xuyao said coldly, "Think about it yourself, soon we’ll take a helicopter back to City A. I’ll go check on Xiaoyan first."
Song Xuyao walked into the room; Qiao Xiaoyan hadn’t woken up yet. He saw an incense stick burning in the room, he sniffed, it was something that caused hallucinations.
After extinguishing the incense, Qiao Xiaoyan slowly woke up after a while.
She saw that this place was where she and Bai Ye once stayed, and her heart instantly felt desolate.
They once took care of a dog together here, now the dog is gone, Bai Ye is gone too, and she’s still standing here, desolate and alone.
But just now, someone kissed her. Was it Bai Ye?
She thought it was an illusion, but it felt especially real.
As she turned around, she saw a man still standing in the room, his tall figure towering without end.
But this back figure was very familiar; despite being familiarly, she understood it wasn’t Bai Ye, but Song Xuyao.
"What are you doing here?" Qiao Xiaoyan interrogated, "This is a place for Bai Ye and me. Leave!"
"Come back to City A with me," Song Xuyao gazed at her.
"I return if I want and refuse if I don’t." Qiao Xiaoyan said coldly.
Song Xuyao reached out to pull her, "Let’s go!"
Time was pressing, leaving no room for her to refuse!
Qiao Xiaoyan was extremely angry; she pushed his hand but couldn’t move him, no matter how much she struggled, she couldn’t break free.
So, she bit his wrist fiercely.
Song Xuyao let her bite him; the taste of blood began to spread from her mouth, bit by bit.
Qiao Xiaoyan looked at his wrist, which was already a bloody mess, yet he still wouldn’t let go. She stopped biting, but instead looked at him with eyes filled with grievance and coldness.
Song Xuyao reached out and gently wiped away the bloodstains from the corner of her mouth, "Finished venting your anger, can we go?"
"Who says I’m done venting?" Qiao Xiaoyan turned away her gaze, "Song Xuyao, what do you want? When I wanted to stay and work in City A, you always wanted me to resign and do something else. Now I’m on leave, and I want to stay here just one more night, yet you come looking for me? I really can’t see through you, what exactly are your intentions?"
"If you can’t see through, then don’t look!" Song Xuyao said softly, one day she’ll be able to see clearly.
Qiao Xiaoyan then noticed the traces of incense powder; she looked at him in disbelief, "You actually lit incense? You created illusions for me? Song Xuyao, are you even human?"
Song Xuyao was taken aback, now he really couldn’t defend himself!
This was Bai Ye’s doing, however, Bai Ye wanted to see Qiao Xiaoyan, he maintained a last bit of calmness, giving Qiao Xiaoyan the illusion.
"You missed that man, so I made an illusion for you to see him, to embrace him in that illusion," Song Xuyao said, "Can we leave now?"
"You..." Qiao Xiaoyan didn’t know what else to say, she just glared hard at this man, then went onto the helicopter silently.
After the helicopter flew away from City G, they arrived in City A, during the whole process, Qiao Xiaoyan didn’t speak a word to Song Xuyao.
When the helicopter landed, Song Xuyao said to her, "You can go back on your own, I have matters to attend to!"
Qiao Xiaoyan still said nothing, turned, and left.
After Qiao Xiaoyan left, Bai Ye came out. Song Xuyao looked at him, "Make your decision, whatever it is, I will agree."
"Song Xuyao, I’m telling you, don’t touch her again! Are you a man or not? You don’t love her but you want to touch her!" Bai Ye said, "I will return, but you must not touch her again!"
"I promise you!" Song Xuyao nodded, "But if you go back like this, you’ll definitely face interrogation. I’ll have someone put on a show, you might get injured!"
Bai Ye laughed mockingly, "I’ve already died once, am I still afraid of getting hurt?"
"Alright!" Song Xuyao signaled him to leave.
Bai Ye walked into the alley; some people were already waiting for him!
"That’s him, get him!" A group of people armed with knives and sticks surged towards him.
Bai Ye’s skills had only improved, not regressed; he snatched a long stick, and with a series of quick moves, he broke them apart.
The anger in his heart, he was just worried he had no place to release it!
Although Bai Ye successfully broke through, he also got injured; even though these dozen people were real members of X Gang, there was no way Song Xuyao would make fake actions in this matter.
After Bai Ye broke through, his white clothes were stained with blood.
"Leng Fei, save me!" shouted Qian Yao, who was captured by the X Gang.
It turned out that the NQ Organization and the X Gang had always been at odds, and of course, Song Xuyao had fanned the flames in between. Now the X Gang had captured Qian Yao, a major leader of the NQ Organization.
"Song Xuyao..." Qiao Xiaoyan, who had returned unexpectedly, didn’t expect to witness such a scene.
She stood outside Song Xuyao’s car, having returned to find her phone. Little did she know she’d witness this chaotic fight.
The one in white clothes, why does he look so much like Bai Ye?
She looked at Song Xuyao, who remained silent in the car, and asked, "Tell me, what on earth is going on?"
Could it be that the Bai Ye she saw now was just another illusion?
No! It definitely wasn’t like that!
The Bai Ye she saw in the hospital, the one she met in the small town of G City, the one in the hotel, and now the Bai Ye in the gang fight, all were real!
She couldn’t be this delusional, she couldn’t be experiencing so many illusions!
Could Bai Ye be alive...
Qiao Xiaoyan got into Song Xuyao’s car, saying, "Tell me, is this real?"
Song Xuyao didn’t expect her to return and glanced at her anxious expression before saying in a low voice, "Xiaoyan, this is confidential."
"Confidential?" Qiao Xiaoyan grabbed him by the collar, "Don’t give me that annoying official talk! Tell me, what is actually happening? The Bai Ye I saw wasn’t an illusion, he was real, he didn’t die, right? But why hasn’t he come to see me? Why?"
Song Xuyao saw her crying like a child, helpless, anxious, and fearful all attacking her at once.
What could he say?
The current Bai Ye was on the brink of life and death. One misstep, and he might face life-threatening danger again.
At this moment, after saving Qian Yao, Bai Ye was injured again.
Seeing Song Xuyao sitting idly by, Qiao Xiaoyan hurriedly said, "Save him! Please save him, okay?"
Whether that was Bai Ye or just someone who looked like him.
But Song Xuyao was a cop; shouldn’t he carry out his duty? To stop the violence and maintain peace.
"Where’s your gun?" Qiao Xiaoyan searched for his gun, wondering where it was. If he fired a shot, it would surely scare the fighting people away.
Her small hands fumbled over Song Xuyao, looking for his gun.
Song Xuyao grabbed her small hand, "Xiaoyan, calm down!"
"How can I be calm?" Qiao Xiaoyan was flustered, "If Bai Ye really isn’t dead and he’s now in such danger, how can we just watch him fight like this, especially since he’s fighting alone and trying to take someone away... I beg you, Song Xuyao, you know, I’ve never begged anyone before, but I’m begging you, save him, okay?"
"I know you don’t like me; I’ll stay far away and never bother you again..." Qiao Xiaoyan cried, "But at this moment, I’m begging you, save him, okay?"
Each word pierced Song Xuyao’s heart like a needle. It wasn’t that he didn’t like her; he pushed her away to keep her safe from danger, but ironically, the more he pushed her away, the closer she got to danger.
Song Xuyao reached out to pull her into his arms, "Xiaoyan, don’t cry anymore..."
He turned on the car’s siren, and the sound of the police car roared in, waking the brawling people as if from a dream.
And so, they scattered and fled.
Bai Ye then left with Qian Yao, and as Qiao Xiaoyan watched Bai Ye’s figure grow more distant through the car window, she slowly fainted.
When she woke up again, she was in the hospital, with Xiao Wan by her side— Xiao Wan had learned to take care of her.
"Sister..." Xiao Wan timidly called out to her.
Qiao Xiaoyan reached out, pulling Xiao Wan into her arms, "Xiao Wan, I’m fine..."
In the hospital room, the TV was broadcasting the news.
"After more than two years of planning, the police have captured all members of the NQ Organization, about a hundred people in total. Among them, crimes were committed using the Zombie Drug to control individuals with antisocial personality disorders, inciting social disturbances and disrupting people’s lives. However, the main leader has escaped. According to police information, this woman is skilled in disguise and makeup. If anyone sees her recent appearance, please report immediately. The report hotline is Day 2333..."
Qiao Xiaoyan realized she’d been unconscious for three days.
And the person on the screen was Nian Enxi.
She should have suspected long ago that Nian Enxi was problematic, but at this moment, they were probably celebrating!
"Xiao Wan, I’m fine, you can go to school!" Qiao Xiaoyan said.
After Xiao Wan left, Qiao Xiaoyan lay alone in the hospital room. She speculated in her heart if Bai Ye hadn’t died, had he gone undercover?
