Chapter 35: The Game of Life and Death
The man let go of my hand and took a step back to stand behind me, staring at me intensely.
I was probably only a palm's length away from the empty boat, and when he let go of me, I didn't dare move for a moment, and my stiff pestle was there.
There was a circle of people around Zhu Xiao, he stood there with his head slightly tilted, the stars were like the moon, his handsome side face was like a god, but his expression was extremely cold.
I looked at him blankly, my eyes burning and hurting, but there were no tears.
In the endless night, another loud whistle sounded, which means that the game is about to officially begin.
The girls next to me subconsciously clenched each other's hands, as if they wanted to draw strength from their companions.
A few sobs came from beside me, and they smashed into my head one by one.
I gritted my teeth tightly, clenched my hands tightly, and watched a few staff members walk towards Zhu Xiao and them with trays.
He smiled nonchalantly, pulled a car key out of his pocket, and threw it in the tray with a clatter.
That's the jackpot.
The whistle in the crowd was louder, and Zhu Xiao paused for a few seconds, pushing away the people around him and walking towards me.
The person who was about to shout to start was stunned for a moment, and his palm was raised in the air, but he didn't put it down.
I didn't dare to jump, seeing Zhu Xiao walking towards me with a cold expression, I almost thought for a moment that he was going to push me down.
But I didn't expect that he was holding my waist with one hand.
The crowd suddenly erupted into a laughing whistle, Zhu Xiao took me a step back, and my whole body was uncontrollably clinging to him, feeling the contours of the muscles under his clothes and the hot body temperature.
"Fourth brother...... Can I ......"
At that time, I still didn't give up, trying to treat Zhu Xiao as the last straw.
I was so scared that even my voice trembled when I spoke.
Zhu Xiao didn't let me finish at all, he used a little more force, I suddenly approached his face, and looked from the side, as if two people kissed together at once.
Only I knew that he didn't mean to kiss me at all, just his thin lips close to my ear.
"Think about what you're asking me to do, don't let me down."
When the words fell, he let go very suddenly.
I had been dragged by him to the side of the boat at that time, and as soon as Zhu Xiao let go, I didn't even have time to react, and I rolled over in the blink of an eye.
The ship's whistle was deafening.
Then the remaining dozen or so girls jumped off one after another.
The salty smell of the sea breeze was blowing in my face, and it almost rattled at my nerves.
It was almost the most terrifying, darkest few tens of seconds of my life.
I didn't even have time to let out a scream before the man was smashed headlong into the water.
The sharp pain and the icy water brought me to my senses for a moment, and I suddenly came to my senses, and reached out to pull the thick rope almost frantically.
I don't know if the fingernails that came to grab the rope were too sharp, or if they were cut by the rope, my arm was in sharp pain, and soon there were several more wounds, and the blood spread into the salty seawater.
But at that time, I didn't care about that much, and I was full of only thinking that I had to live.
If I die, Zhao Pingsheng will really be saved!
Everyone had to struggle to climb up, so the few hands that were still clasped tightly just now have become opponents, and the fight is inseparable.
I didn't care about the fingernails that greeted me in the face, I was full of survival instincts, and I pulled the rope all the way up.
In the middle of the process, a girl tried to pull me by the hair to pull me down, and I was hanging in the air, and I had no way to exert any strength, so I could only endure the pain and shake her off.
It was a real pain and tingling on the scalp.
At that moment, I suddenly understood why Zhu Xiao said that I would not lose.
He knew I was afraid of water, and I was probably the only one in the group who couldn't swim.
So everyone else is just fighting for the winner, and it's just me, just to survive.
He guessed correctly, and when I climbed up panting, I actually came out on top.
My hair was completely loose, my whole body trembled uncontrollably, and I knelt directly on the deck as soon as my legs went limp.
The wounds on my body, large and small, hurt and tore at my nerves as if they were going to kill me.
There was a cheer around, mixed with a few words of congratulations to Zhu Xiao, I didn't have the heart to listen, so I could only use my best to ensure that I didn't fall down now.
Zhu Xiao stared at me with the corners of his mouth, a cigarette between his slender fingertips, and his eyes were calm and cold.
I can even imagine that when I was struggling to survive down there just now, his condescending expression should be exactly the same as now.
Without a hint of pity or sympathy, even, with interest, as if watching a group of clowns perform hard underneath.
Rong Er didn't know where he came from, he looked at me with a bright smile, and then turned to look at Zhu Xiao.
"Fourth, it's better for you to look at people. This little white flower looks soft and weak, I didn't expect it to be so fierce! ”
He whistled unconsciously, turned his face to look at me, but spoke to Zhu Xiao meaningfully.
"I said the fourth, people have worked hard to win back the lottery for you, this car, if you want me to say, you will give it to Xiaobaihuaer, right?"
He squinted and turned to look at me, his eyes surging with a narrow light, as if he thought it was funny.
Zhu Xiao just smiled and didn't speak.
The ashes of the cigarette in his hand were scattered in the wind, and the fire on his fingertips was extinguished brightly, and it was impossible to see it really.
My frozen teeth chattered, and I struggled to get up and walk over the floor.
"Fourth brother, I don't want a car."
"I just want to ask you for one thing."
After saying that, I just felt as if the sea breeze was going to skin and cramp me.
It's so cold, I can't even pronounce words clearly.
Zhu Xiao's windbreaker was blown hunting, but it did not affect the sharpness of his whole person as if he was out of the sheath.
His lips were pursed tightly, and his face was even more handsome and extraordinary, but it was also full of affection.
After a long time, he slightly picked the corners of his mouth and threw away the half of the cigarette in his hand.
"Tell me about it."
For a moment, I felt his voice come and go, but I could hear it clearly.
I walked into him, step by step, and I just wanted to say that.
"Save my brother......"
I distinctly remember that before I finished saying that, people were still conscious.
But I don't know what's going on, I took a step closer to Zhu Xiao, and the whole person suddenly lost the ability to control his body.
In the last second of sight, I seemed to see the second button on Zhu Xiao's chest.
The sky was gone, and as soon as my legs went limp, the whole person fell down without warning.
