Volume 1 Mr. Engineer and Miss Mercenary Chapter 34 Huck Wright
Rhines looked at Hua Shao quietly, then reached out and patted her on the head.
"If you were given a chance now, would you give him all your trust?"
Hua Shao raised his head to look at her, his black eyes mixed with despair and hope.
"I will. I will give him my life. β
"So ......"
Reinth paused, she glanced at Apaya, who was also looking at her, she lowered her head, and then looked in Huck's direction.
"Put your life in his hands now." "Go up to him and pull him back from the bewitchment of the 'gift'." β
Reins turned to look at Hua Shao.
"The moment he comes back to his senses, there is a possibility that he will kill you directly because of his chaotic memory." Reinse's face was also slightly pale, "It just depends on whether you are willing to trust him, and I believe that he will stop for you." β
Hua Shao didn't care about this, in fact, she really smiled as if she had been redeemed.
"I'm not going to give up on him again."
The dark-haired woman stood up and walked slowly but surely in Huck's direction. Rhines didn't look at her, just looked at Appaya with some blankness.
"I'm sorry." "I may have sent her to death," she said...... But this is the only hope that they will be able to survive at the same time. β
Apaya stood up, walked up to her and half-knelt down again, then he raised his hand, and the mercenary closed his eyes, ready for the worst.
But she was greeted with a warm embrace.
"It's not your fault, you don't need to apologize." He said softly, "It was an entanglement between the two of them, they had to make a decision, and you just helped her." β
She felt her tears slip down her eyes and disappear into the other's clothes.
That's her blood relative. It was the blood relative she had longed for and longed for in countless painful and dark nights.
Even if she will never get along as a real relative, as long as her blood relatives are still alive, she can feel that she still has a home in this world.
She wants her to live, the missing part of her soul, the part that is closely related to her relatives, is longing for Hua Shao to come back and not to die.
"Lord Huck."
In front of the man who was held in the air by the current, the black-haired woman stopped, and she looked up at him with a smile on her face.
"Lord Huck, can you hear me? β¦β¦β
Hearing Hua Shao's voice calling out to Huck, Reins left Appaya as if awakened, wiping her eyes quickly. Appaya looked at her with a disapproving gaze, then grabbed her hand, which was a little too hard, and took a clean handkerchief from his purse and gently pressed it against her eyes.
ββ¦β¦ Surprising. The mercenary muttered, "You still have it......"
"At the time, I wasn't sure if you would use this as an excuse to start tossing me again if I threw it away." The Engineer smirked, "That's why I'll keep it." β
Once, Apaya's arm was cut through the skin by a poisonous arrow in the ruins, and because he couldn't find an antidote for a while, the mercenary applied a blessing on the handkerchief to suppress the venom attack, and then tied it to his arm, so that he could go back and find a way to solve it.
"It sounds like I didn't do anything at the time, which makes you very sorry."
Apaya's hand paused, then folded the handkerchief back into his bag.
"I don't know whether to admit it or deny it."
His answer made Reins look subtle.
"I never knew you had masochistic tendencies?"
"Come on, mercenary, don't play stupid." Appaya glared at her, "What I just told you yesterday, it's only been less than 24 hours, you want to think you've forgotten?" β
Reinse's eyes looked away.
"Less than 24 hours? It felt like a few days later......"
"Don't change the subject, I notice you've been trying to avoid the most important question." The other party complained dissatisfiedly, "At least when you tossed me, you proved that I had a chance to redeem my mistakes." β
"Ahem." A very obvious and deliberate coughing sound came from the side, "Excuse me, two, can you wait for a while?" There's another 'gift' to look at. β
Reins quickly stood up, glared at Lillian with a malicious smile, and then turned to look in Huck's direction.
"It's a really surprising situation." She muttered, "If Ella were here, I'd be amazed at the sight." β
Hua Shao didn't seem to have anything to say, she just looked at Huck quietly.
Their past only touched Huck slightly, not enough for him to actually come back.
Men with bad personalities have been bad at all times, and they are so willful now.
"Huck." She put her hands behind her back and looked at him calmly, "You're such a stupid guy. β
At this time, Hua Shao, who was still stimulating the other party, made Smofa can't help but look sideways.
"That kind of thing you still treasure like that, holding it in your hand like some priceless jewel." She continued, "That's not my heirloom jade pendant, I don't have that kind of thing at all, this is a fake I bought from a stall for 2 gold coins, and you really believe it when you lied to you casually." β
Even the others couldn't help but look at her now, but it was clear that her approach was working, and Huck's hands began to tremble.
"I've always hated you. You left my grandparents without a happy old age, even if it wasn't you? If it weren't for you, how could that force be targeting the two old men?
"That's why I joined the Wright family and asked me to be your assistant directly, isn't this deliberately making me carry out my plan of revenge? You showed me how brutal the Wright family was, and how many more miserable children than I did just appeared, and it made me hate you more and more. β
Huck seemed to be struggling with something, his breath had begun to separate from the "bounty".
"Even when I finally ruined the Wright family with the others and lay there with your arm broken, your posture was still so nasty." Hua Shao shook his head, "A face that even these scenes are under your control, and it's great to say that I killed you, I already knew that I was my grandfather's granddaughter." It makes me hate it even more. β
Reins wasn't sure if she saw some kind of anger in Huck's soul.
"Later, you simply forgot about it, so that I couldn't help but bear everything by myself and treat you as if nothing had happened, which also made me very annoying, why can you be a hands-off shopkeeper so easily?"
Hua Shao looked like he had suddenly become in a trance, and even his tone became shriveled and weak.
"The most annoying thing is the way you are." She whispered, "I was controlled by the inexplicable 'gift', and I was controlled by the cheap goods I sent. β
She clenched her fists, then looked up and yelled at Huck.
"You useless bastard! You are not qualified to let me die with you if you are controlled by this kind of thing! Die for yourself! Idiot Hack! β
ββ¦β¦ Should I say that she deserves to know each other best? Lilian looked at her with some dumbfoundedness, "Other people's families are reminiscing about old narratives, and it seems to be really useful for her to become this kind of development." β
"So the two of them are the ones who can be soulmates, not any one with you." Reins habitually sarcastic, "It's a shame you can't see their soul breath...... It's a real sight. β
Both souls separated into a large number of branch-like breaths that extended towards each other, and the tracks of the branches intertwined with each other in graceful curves, and this interaction even pushed the power of the "gift" out of the way. This made the jade pendant finally lose its luster and fall to the ground, like an ordinary jade pendant, making a crisp sound. And Huck also returned to the ground and looked at Hua Shao.
The emotion in his eyes is like a dangerous whirlpool, sucking those who see it into the abyss. But Hua Shao didn't seem to mind at all, just looked at him like this.
A dagger was pressed to her chest, but she didn't flinch, but spoke freely, as if she were chatting with a friend.
"You were able to find this dagger?"
ββ¦β¦ I found it in a warehouse one day and it attracted me, so I took it and carried it with me ever since. Huck's voice was soft and sweet, as if he were talking to a lover, "It seems that this is a guide in the dark, and it guides me to use it again one day, to use this thing that almost killed me, to kill the person who tried to kill me." β
"It's a wonderful coincidence indeed." Hua Shao also said gently, "Very beautiful, isn't it?" β
Huck looked straight into Hua Shao's eyes.
"Aren't you afraid that this dagger will really be pressed?"
"Well, of course I'm afraid, I'm still afraid, after all, it should be very painful." Hua Shao smiled, and even opened his arms, "But I have already decided, my life is yours, you can dispose of it." β
The white-haired man smiled with satisfaction, as if a child had received his favorite toy.
"Tell me your last words, dear Shao."
"Hmm...... I don't seem to have anything to account for here. She frowned a little distressedly, "Then I only have one more sentence." β
Hua Shao hugged Huck with both arms, and even took the initiative to meet his body in the direction of the dagger.
"I love you, Huck Wright."
With a "clank", the dagger with blood on the blade was thrown to the ground, and the white-haired man hugged the black-haired woman tightly, he pressed the back of Hua Shao's head with one hand, and the two kissed fiercely.
ββ¦β¦ What an exciting development. Reins gradually relaxed the tense nerves just now, "I thought I would witness the first symbionts who killed each other and showed signs of forming soulmates......"
But now the soul aura of the two people has been completely blended together, and finally bloomed with a moment of pure white color, which is a precursor to their core compatibility approaching 100%.
"I don't want to admit that even though Huck is a jerk, he really likes Shao." Apaya said awkwardly, "So you can rest assured...... Can you tap it? My hand hurts a little. β
Reins was stunned for a moment, and then realized that she had subconsciously grabbed the engineer in order to relieve the tense pressure.
"Oh, sorry...... I didn't notice. She immediately let go of her hand, "Are you alright?" I probably didn't have control over it, and I didn't want the word that Chief Murphy's precious hand had been pinched by a mercenary who wasn't big or small, and he couldn't continue with his great inventions. β
Apaya moved his left hand slightly, his expression pained.
"It should be fine, but it hurts a little."
"Let me see." Reins tensed again, and she carefully touched his hand, "Did I use that much force?" Could it be that it affects the bones or nerves? You should have reminded meβ"
Looking at the cautious mercenary, Apaya couldn't help but gently lift her face with her other hand, and under her surprised gaze, she lowered her body and kissed the tip of her nose.
"You!" Reinth quickly took two steps back, her face flushing again, "You're all right, are you?" β
The engineer blinked innocently.
"I just said it, it's okay, it's just a little painful, and it's not so painful now." He demonstratively shook his hand, "Look, you didn't exert too much force. β
Rhines looked ashamed, not knowing whether to kill the other party or bury herself.
