Chapter 603: I Won't Let You Die

~7 min read 1,327 words

Almost everyone's heart leaped into their throat in an instant.

Jiang Baobao nearly rushed out directly, but was held back firmly by Li Xiao and Li Beijue.

"Xiao Tang!!! Xiao Tang!!!"

Jiang Baobao's tears tumbled out from her eye sockets, scrambling to be first.

Cai Xiaotang's vision had long since been blurred by tears; her gaze swept over Jiang Baobao with reluctance before looking toward Li Xiao.

Within it was a fullness of lingering attachment and sorrow.

Li Xiao's gaze flickered for an instant, and a dense, prickling pain had already spread through the bottom of his heart.

If he could not understand her gaze at this moment, then he truly was the world's greatest fool.

But he knew that at this moment, he could not panic.

To save her, he could only take a gamble.

"Click!"

The crane lowered another notch.

Cai Xiaotang's figure also swayed violently!

The other party seemed to be deliberately trying to disrupt their state of mind; they did not lower her all the way, but instead intentionally observed their reactions.

"Shura, take one last look at your person. After today, you will only be able to burn paper for her!"

Bai Lang's smug voice came again.

Li Xiao did not speak; his fingers moved calmly to his watch and tapped it twice lightly.

Bai Lang slowly raised his hand...

Li Xiao also held his breath with a sharp expression.

"Don't... don't!!!"

Jiang Baobao frantically tried to shake off the hands of Li Beijue and Li Xiao, watching helplessly as the man standing on the crane raised his gun, aiming directly at the rope on Cai Xiaotang!

The next second—"Bang!"

"Bang!"

Two gunshots rang out simultaneously!

Cai Xiaotang's figure plummeted violently in an instant, falling into the sea with a splash!

Bai Lang's expression turned fierce instantly; before he could even speak, he saw a group of people rushing out from around the port, intending to surround them!

"Damn it! I knew you brought people with you!"

He cursed in a low voice and pulled out his pistol, aiming in Li Xiao's direction.

But before he could pull the trigger, a black object flew straight toward him, striking his wrist directly!

It was actually Li Xiao's phone!

"Ah!"

Bai Lang let out a miserable shriek, and the pistol slid to the ground instantly.

"Find cover!"

Li Xiao threw these words to Li Beijue and ran straight toward the direction of the sea!

Gunshots erupted throughout the port. Bai Lang wanted to pick up his gun, but was hit in the arm by a bullet and rolled onto the ground in a sorry state.

The people he brought were not many, and within a few seconds, they had all sustained injuries of varying severity.

Everything happened in the blink of an eye.

Li Xiao had no eyes for anything else and leaped straight into the sea!

In the deep blue seawater, a figure was sinking rapidly.

Li Xiao's entire heart was in his throat as he swam toward her with all his might at top speed!

Not until he grabbed Cai Xiaotang's hand did he feel a bit more at ease, but then he heard the sound of a motor not far above his head.

A dark glint flashed in his eyes; he quickly tore away the cloth gagging Cai Xiaotang and kissed her without a moment's hesitation!

Li Xiao's face was filled with a panic he had never shown before, as he tried hard to pass the air from his mouth to hers.

But Cai Xiaotang had no reaction at all.

Li Xiao had no choice but to quickly pull Cai Xiaotang and swim toward the shore.

Several people had already gathered there, waiting for them.

"Shura!"

Seeing Li Xiao surface from the water, the group hurried to meet them.

"Take her first!"

Li Xiao tried his best to lift Cai Xiaotang up, and the group immediately scrambled to take her and lay her flat on the ground.

Her complexion was deathly pale, and her lips had lost all color.

"Xiao Tang? Xiao Tang?"

Li Xiao was in a disheveled state; as soon as he climbed up, he knelt on one knee beside Cai Xiaotang.

Seeing she had no reaction, he straightened her position and kissed her again, performing CPR!

"Xiao Tang!"

Jiang Baobao ran over from a distance and happened to see this scene; her tears instantly began to roll down uncontrollably again.

Xiao Tang was saved...

She was saved!

Heaven bless her, please don't let anything happen to Xiao Tang!

She watched nervously as Li Xiao kept performing CPR on Cai Xiaotang, her own breathing unable to help but stop along with his.

A dozen seconds later—"Cough! Cough, cough!"

Cai Xiaotang finally started coughing suddenly, violently spitting out several mouthfuls of water.

"Xiao Tang!!!"

Jiang Baobao rushed over and knelt by her side, but before she could say anything, a huge roar suddenly erupted from the sea in the distance!

With a "Boom—"!

It seemed as if even the harbor was shaking along with it.

Cai Xiaotang, who had still been coughing, suddenly opened her eyes wide, looking dizzily at the group of people surrounding her.

A sky full of fire rose up on the sea, dyeing nearly half of the ocean a golden red.

The expressions of the few people beside Li Xiao were suddenly filled with surprise.

"Shura, you..."

Li Xiao did not speak, but raised his head and swept his gaze over the crowd.

The surroundings immediately fell silent.

Jiang Baobao was even less prepared for what had happened; she blinked her eyes, realized something in an instant, and hurriedly lowered her head.

That explosion just now was...

Was it the speedboat that the White Wolf and his men were riding in?

Then they must all be... dead now?

Jiang Baobao's heart was pounding rapidly, and seeing that Cai Xiaotang still hadn't fully recovered her senses, she hurriedly grabbed her hand.

"Xiao Tang, how do you feel? Is there anywhere you feel uncomfortable?"

"I..."

Cai Xiaotang had choked on quite a bit of water, and her voice was a little hoarse the moment she opened her mouth.

Li Xiao hurriedly said with concern: "Don't talk for now, I'll have someone take you to the Hospital."

As soon as his voice fell, several people around them immediately turned to go get the cars.

Someone reached out a hand, wanting to help Cai Xiaotang up, but was brushed aside by Li Xiao.

Then, without changing his expression, he picked Cai Xiaotang up horizontally!

"Li..."

Cai Xiaotang subconsciously wanted to speak, but her throat still hurt, and her face instantly turned a little red.

Jiang Baobao looked at the two of them and suddenly realized something.

Where is the Shitou on Xiao Tang's body?

Why is it gone?

She didn't have time to think too much, and hurriedly pulled Li Beijue along, following in Li Xiao's footsteps.

The four of them got into the car one after another.

Cai Xiaotang's complexion had eased up quite a bit, but she was soaked through and shivering slightly.

Li Xiao took off his own coat, draped it over her, checked the temperature of her forehead, and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, it's already over, I'm taking you to the Hospital now..."

As he spoke, he wanted to turn around to drive.

But just as he moved, his wrist was grabbed by someone!

Cai Xiaotang didn't say a single word, just looked at him pitifully like that, while her fingers gripped tighter and tighter.

Seeing this, Jiang Baobao hurriedly said: "Let's sit in the front; getting Xiao Tang to the Hospital is the priority."

As she spoke, she and Li Beijue sat in the front.

Li Xiao then took the opportunity to get into the back seat, sitting beside Cai Xiaotang.

As soon as he sat steady, he felt a weight in his arms.

Cai Xiaotang leaned over entirely, directly holding his hand.
