Your Beloved Sweetheart Is Online

Chapter 193 - 195: Take the initiative to block for him! _1

He would never have guessed that the same girl he had once looked down upon, whom he found so repugnant he’d have gladly left her to fend for herself, would without any hesitation, shield him from a fatal bullet when most needed.

Like her father, she also risked her life to save his.

She probably had no concept of self-sacrifice or offering oneself unto death for another’s life, yet, she did just that. At a time when he was most helpless, she blocked the bullet that would have pierced his heart, delivering a potent slap to his cold-bloodish thoughts through her brave actions.

Facing imminent danger, she chose to shield him from the bullet – not just an accidental intervention, but a conscious endeavor.

The lethal bullet tore through her arm, causing her to howl in agony.

He would forever remember the last thing she said before she passed out: "Brother... s-so... beautiful, c-can I... c-can I be your... your bride?"

Even now, he vividly remembers her words. Being so young, she probably didn’t even understand what being a bride meant. Perhaps, she was just mimicking the games she played with her friends.

He remembered once when she came running over, sulkily tearing up his draft book on his desk and said, "Brother, I don’t like Hu Hu. He said I’m not as pretty as Ya Ya, and I can’t be the bride. Thus, I have decided not to play with Hu Hu anymore."

There was a man who emerged from the darkness. He didn’t know who the man was but years later, when he was master of the Gu Family’s power, he found out the man’s surname was Ye. Revenge is a dish best served cold; Zhou Heyang’s fate would be meted out in kind, an eye for an eye.

The vehicle too emerged from the darkness, and that man pushed him into the car. Helplessly watching the unconscious girl lying inert on the ground, he was made to leave her behind, never knowing what became of her.

Inside the vehicle were his stepfather and his birth mother.

And yet, his birth mother could only stare as he was bullied by his stepfather, her own son, held above the ground, experiencing the terror of being on the brink of death... and then, he was actually thrown out of the car.

Gu Shaocheng was struggling with his emotions. He closed his eyes, trying hard to calm himself down. After a while, he opened his eyes to look at the girl lying on the ground.

He said lightly: "The driver drove us away to escape. However, not long after, he was murdered, just like your adoptive father. The police report filed it as an accident, an unexpected death. But the actual murderer, who was killing on someone’s orders, was Ye Dan, your foster father!"

"You think your foster father is innocent, so did your birth father deserve to die then? For my sake, he was brutally killed by your foster father. His last concern was you, and his final words were to ask me to take care of you!"

"He is watching you from above! Seeing that for all these years, you’ve mistaken a wolf for a rabbit, seeing how you grieve for your father’s real killer. Can’t you imagine how heartbroken he’d be?"

"No... no... don’t say another word... I don’t believe it, not a single word..."

"That’s not true, you’re lying," Chenxing suddenly stood up excitedly, grabbed his collar, and utterly losing control of himself, cried out in a voice that rang hoarse with emotion:
