The hairpin accidentally pricked her palm, Cheng Xue was a little scared in her heart, and began to greet the "cousin" who walked slowly in front of her with no expression.

"Do you think you can escape by holding a woman hostage casually?" Fu Huaiyi sneered with a cold face.

"You, don't come here, I'll kill her if you come again. The man in black shuddered at the sight of five or six of his companions on the ship's plank, who had been hit and covered in blood.

"It seems that your master did not tell you my habits, and I was never threatened by anyone. Fu Huaiyi raised his eyebrows slightly and said ruthlessly, "A passerby, if you kill her, I will compensate her for her funeral expenses, but you still have to die." ”

Cheng Xue felt that the man holding her head began to tremble like a fallen leaf in the wind, for fear that he would suddenly wipe the warehouse and go wrong.

In a hurry, Shengzhi said: "Cousin, you and I grew up as childhood sweethearts, and we have a marriage contract, do you really want to kill me for the sake of Miss Sangji?!"

"......" Fu Huaiyi frowned, and secretly gestured to Zhao Ling behind him.

Feeling the slight hesitation of the man behind her, Cheng Xue continued to shout: "Cousin, my uncle and aunt love me more than my own daughter, if I die here, it will definitely make the second elder sad!"

"Haha, it turns out that you are deceiving me, but it's a pity that your fiancée is cowardly and stupid! If you want her to live, prepare a ship for me. Haha, otherwise you won't be lonely with your fiancée on Huangquan Road!"

"I don't have a fiancée and I don't know her. To the man's surprise, Fu Huaiyi did not see the slightest panic, and his deep eyes looked directly at the woman who was being held hostage, "Miss, you can rest assured, I will serve you a stick of incense every Qingming Festival." ”

The man saw that Fu Huaiyi didn't seem to be cheating, and he squeezed Cheng Xue's head with a cang: "What is your relationship with him?!"

Cheng Xue scolded in her heart, you need to be incense on the Qingming Festival!

Why don't I kill you, and in the future, I will not only give you incense, but also give you eighteen generations of ancestors incense, okay?!

But he faked a cry on his face: "Cousin, if you are angry with me for hindering the good things between you and Miss Sangji, it's a big deal to let Miss Sangji be big and I will be small." I have a deep love for you, my love is as deep as the sea, the blue sea is even the sky, how can you hurt me so much?!"

“......”

For the first time in his life, Fu Huaiyi met such a woman who could act and did such a fake play, and he was really stunned for a while.

The man behind him was even more suspicious, and he didn't know which of the two of them was telling the truth and who was lying, and the hand holding the position in his mind was a little away from Chengxue.

Seeing that the opportunity could not be missed, she slammed her head backwards with all her might, heard the person behind her snort, and when he was in pain and let go, she quickly turned around and inserted the hairpin into the neck of the person who came, and heard the sound of the warehouse behind her, and the body of the man holding her was shocked, and she knew that he was in the warehouse.

I was secretly happy to escape just now, but the next moment I was dragged by this man and fell off the boat, and the cold sea water pierced the bone marrow.

Finally, I couldn't help but open my mouth and curse the three-character scripture, and before I could close my mouth, the bitter salty sea water poured into my mouth, and the struggling body was dragged and slowly slid into the abyss.

Seeing Cheng Xue fall out of the boat, Fu Huaiyi immediately pulled open the lifebuoy hanging on the railing of the hull and jumped down, but in a few seconds, he was left behind by the giant ship moving at full speed.

Cheng Xue held her breath and held the hairpin and poked the man who was dragging her, but it was a pity that even if the blood flowed, the man seemed to be planning to drag her to the eighteenth layer of hell with her.

She never stopped, she had to see if she was dragged and drowned by this man first, or if this person bleed too much first, let go and drown herself.

Say that if you don't see each other for a day, the moment of life and death, a second is like a century.

Cheng Xue felt that this time was very long, and she kept poking the man who was dragging her tightly in her hand, and the time of her short life was like a long wind sweeping through her heart.

Ignorant childhood, carefree teenager, father in a high position, mother virtuous and virtuous, parents love and harmony, and love her very much, food and clothing, simple and happy, the happiest time came to an abrupt end at the age of 12.

When her parents died unexpectedly, she saved her infant sister's life with the only relic her mother left her, a gold lock.

Since then, a 12-year-old girl has been displaced with her sister in troubled times, being a beggar, cheating, hurting people, and saving people.

Later, I met Uncle Lu for my life, and then I met that person who has been the owner of Sijin Ji since then.

In a drowsy state, I felt a lightness on my body, and the person who dragged me let go for some reason, and was carried to the surface by a force.

Suddenly, a large expanse of air rushed into the lungs, with a cold joy.

Just the flickering lights on the shore in the distance, I carefully looked at the man who was dragging himself out of the sea at this moment.

"Cousin?" Lu Chengxue hesitated and was surprised.

"Now there is no one else, why does Miss Lu want to act?" Fu Huaiyi's voice could not hear joy and anger under the wrapping of the waves.

"......", if I don't make a show, I'm afraid that someone will be killed on the boat just now, and Chengxue will secretly slander her.

It's just that this man has been completely victorious, but he doesn't know why he fell into the sea with him?

Isn't it to save yourself?

His mind shifted and he asked, "What now, will your men come looking for you?"

"Yes", Fu Huaiyi motioned for her to put on the lifebuoy and take her to swim in the direction of the lights on the shore.

"Since we're coming, let's stay still? The shore is more than ten kilometers away, and it is indispensable to swim for three or four hours. Cheng Xue was puzzled, "Have you ever heard the story of carving a boat to ask for a sword? If the sword can swim, the gods can't find it!"

Fu Huaiyi frowned: "You are not iron, if you don't swim in the direction of the coast by yourself, you will be washed away by the waves in an unknown direction, who can find you at night? By the day of the next day, your frozen corpse would have been fed to the fish long ago." ”

What's more, carving a boat to seek a sword was originally a story of failure, Fu Huaiyi secretly wondered if this girl was frozen and stupid, and the metaphor was strange.

"......", Cheng Xue, who was a little grateful after just escaping death and being rescued, you just feed the fish!

The two swam silently for a long time, and she felt that the blood in her body was cold: "How do you know that I can't swim?"

Chengyu said. Fu Huaiyi.

"Jump out of ship to save people, remember to bring a lifebuoy, in fact, your own swimming skills are not good?"

“......。 ”

"People say that if you walk in the aimless wilderness, you think the path is straight, but in fact you walk in an arc, and finally it can be connected into a circle, do you think we will swim for a few hours and swim back to the same place?"

The silent night shrouded the unknown sea, and Cheng Xue carefully hid the slightest fear.

"There is a lighthouse in front. Fu Huaiyi.

"We're in the middle of the ocean, will we be eaten by sharks?"

"It's a shallow sea with very few sharks. ”

"There are very few, but there are still ......"

"Even if you encounter a small shark, it won't be bigger than you, so it's probably a little difficult to eat you. Fu Huaiyi still spoke in a flat tone.

Cheng Xue heard the ridicule under his calm tone, and silently closed his mouth, the landlubber who couldn't swim, after soaking in the cold sea for a long time, his IQ had dropped below average.

After a long time, she was no longer conscious, and only relied on inertia to flutter her limbs, "How long have we been swimming, why do we feel that the lighthouse is not far away, but it has been swimming for a long time?"

"It's almost there. Fu Huaiyi.

"You just said this, I knew that I would exercise more when I had this day. Cheng Xue whispered slightly on the lifebuoy.

"This time it's real. ”

"Liar, you just said it was true. She dodged a wave of waves and panted desperately, looked at the man in front of her right who was still breathing, and said, "If I can't swim after a while, you can swim by yourself, don't worry about me." ”

"I won't leave you alone. It was still a faint voice, but it seemed to be a little warm.

Cheng Xue couldn't help but laugh silently: "Actually, what I said was polite, because I said this, you are even more reluctant to leave me out of a man's self-esteem and pity." ”

"Are you Xiangyu?" Fu Huaiyi looked at her whose voice was getting quieter and quieter, thinking that this girl was so cold that she had already begun to talk nonsense.

"My mother said that I have been sweet and coaxed people since I was a child, and coaxed my aunt and relatives to give me all the good things in the house, but I haven't coaxed you, why did you save my life?"

It was very risky to jump into the sea to save people in the middle of the night, and Cheng Xue couldn't understand why Fu Huaiyi saved her after thinking about it.

"You saved my life. ”

"Oh, that time, you gave 100,000 yuan and you already paid two dollars. ”

Fu Huaiyi felt that this girl was very clear and principled, and she only pretended to be his fiancée on the deck just now, and never threatened her with life-saving grace.

"So this time I saved your life, and you should also reward you with 100,000 yuan. ”

"Ah, 100,000 yuan is too much, let's discuss, is 1,000 yuan okay? I'm short of money!" Cheng Xue had no strength, but she felt that she had the strength to give 100,000 yuan in an instant.

"If I'm not mistaken, you only bought a dinner for 10,000 yuan yesterday. Fu Huaiyi glanced at her.

"That's because she's going to give me tenfold and hundredfold benefits. ”

"It turns out that this is death for money......" Fu Huaiyi was a little helpless.

"Won awards", Cheng Xue's pale face showed a slight smile, like a plum blooming on the white snow in winter: "The saddest thing in life is that there is no money." ”

"Your life is almost gone, and you're still worried about money?"

"I have to die!" Through the undulating sea, she felt that the lighthouse opposite was always close in front of her, far away in the sky.

Seeing Lu Chengxue, who was swimming more and more slowly, Fu Huaiyi suddenly spoke: "One hundred thousand can't be less." ”

"Ten thousand?" "One hundred thousand is really digging into the flesh!!

"One hundred thousand. ”

"Thirty thousand. ”

"One hundred thousand. ”

"Forty thousand. ”

"If you can swim to shore by yourself tonight, you don't need a penny. As soon as Fu Huaiyi's words fell, he saw that the woman next to him had accelerated his swimming speed visibly with the naked eye, and he felt extremely funny.

Like the time of the universe passing by, Cheng Xue looked at the shore that was getting closer and closer, and bit her numb lower lip, but her hands and feet were no longer her own, and she couldn't get closer to a few inches with all her strength.

"If I lose consciousness for a moment...... You bite me...... I haven't lost ...... yet."

The staccato sound showed that the master was exhausted.

Fu Huaiyi swam behind Lu Chengxue and gently pushed her, humming softly.

"Don't ...... Don't push me...... Do you want my money? ”

Cheng Xue felt that her eyes couldn't be opened, but she still didn't want him to help.

"Don't underestimate me, I want both money and life. ”

With the feeling of another hard bite on the hand that was hurt by the hairpin, she opened her eyes again, pushed away the man behind her, and swam to the shore as best she could.

Fu Huaiyi looked at the woman who was swimming slowly with her eyes closed, and the waves sometimes slapped her head, and her expression could not be seen clearly.

But he thought that at this moment, she was like an unknown tree growing alone on the cliff, struggling to break through the shackles under her feet, with a trace of stubbornness, regardless of the cold and dark night, out of the sky.

When her hand touched the soft sand beneath her, and she seemed to be able to hear the laughter of pedestrians on the shore, Cheng Xue struggled to tug at the corners of her frozen lips and finally fainted.

Fu Huaiyi gently picked up the petite woman, and the slight heaving of her chest proved her survival.

Looking at her slightly trembling eyelashes, small chin, quite clever nose bridge, and pale lips, I felt incredible.

########

The dazzling sunlight poured through the window lattice, and Cheng Xue looked around with her eyes half-open.

There was a black light bulb hanging on the low beam, old and simple furnishings, and the room seemed to have not been inhabited for a long time, and there was a damp and moldy smell.

Lifted the thin quilt on his body, got up and half-leaned on the bed, looked out the window, "cousin Lin Yi" was discussing something softly with his subordinates outside the door, and suddenly he looked into the house, and frowned inexplicably after seeing Chengxue, and strode towards the house after giving a command.

"Awake?" Fu Huaiyi asked as he looked at Lu Chengxue, who was half-leaning on the head of the bed.

"Where is this?" she asked.

"Last night we spent the night at a fisherman's house. Fu Huaiyi stared at her neck, his expression a little inexplicable.

"I won last night's bet, so you can only get my thanks. ”

Cheng Xue smiled a little proudly, there is no way to ask for money!

"......", don't worry about your innocence, the first thing you think of when you wake up is silver?!

Fu Huaiyi felt that this woman who put money before her life and innocence was incredible.

Looking at his inexplicable expression, Cheng Xue looked down at his body suspiciously, and found that the dress had been changed into rough linen clothes, and said with a slight hope: "My clothes were changed by the hostess?"

Fu Huaiyi raised his eyebrows: "The main family has only one uncle and his minor son, and I am your cousin......"
