The Crippled Boss Loves Me Chapter 228 - Get Down!

Chapter 228: Get Down!

Zhuang Yu let go of Shen Hanxing’s hand. Zhuang Yu knew that without her dragging them down, Shen Hanxing would definitely be able to escape from this place.

“No!” Shen Hanxing grabbed Zhuang Yu’s hand and said without hesitation, “If we came here together, then we have to leave together.”

Even in such a desperate situation, Shen Hanxing was unwilling to give up on Zhuang Yu. Zhuang Yu’s tears flowed even faster. She sobbed and felt sad. She gritted her teeth and said, “It’s all my fault, I’ve implicated you… Let’s run, run quickly!” She hated herself for being so useless. She clenched her teeth and pulled Shen Hanxing as they ran forward. Zhuang Yu said, “We can’t stop here, run!”

Shen Hanxing would not give up on her, then Zhuang Yu should not drag Shen Hanxing down either! However, although Zhuang Yu did not want to give up, every part of her body was screaming and resisting. She only ran a few steps before she fell to the ground panting. An itchy feeling came from her throat. She desperately covered her mouth to stop coughing, afraid that the pursuers behind them would hear her and discover their tracks. As she coughed, a faint smell of blood rose from her throat. Her palms were also stained with warm blood.

“This won’t do.” Shen Hanxing’s face darkened as she looked around coldly. She a.n.a.lyzed calmly, “You can’t continue running.”

“I can, I can.” Shame, fear, and despair were intertwined together. Zhuang Yu had completely broken down. She slapped her legs with all her might, she cried so hard that she could not help herself. She cried, “Why are you so useless? You have to stand up and run!”

“Alright, stop crying,” Shen Hanxing sighed and reached out to pull her up. “Save some of your strength, don’t give up yet.”

Zhuang Yu sobbed softly. She knew that if it was not for her, Shen Hanxing would have been safe a long time ago.

Shen Hanxing did not feel sorry for herself, nor did she blame Zhuang Yu. She looked around their surroundings, and her eyes suddenly lit up. She said, “Follow me.” There was an attempt to develop this mountain before. However, for some unknown reason, the development project stopped halfway. Therefore, it left behind a deep pit that was half the height of a person.

“Go down,” Shen Hanxing’s voice was low and anxious. “Hurry up, they’re coming!”

Zhuang Yu obediently slid down and occupied a corner of the deep pit. At this moment, the gangsters were gradually searching this area. Through the withered trees in the winter, they could see many figures. Shen Hanxing quickly pulled large clumps of hay, bent down to grab the small tree that had fallen on the ground, and jumped down as well. She used the hay and the small tree to bury the top of the pit. From the outside, it looked like an inconspicuous little gra.s.s nest.

Shen Hanxing and Zhuang Yu hid here, covering their mouths and noses, not daring to make a sound. The footsteps of those gangsters gradually approached, accompanied by endless cursing, “Where are they?! Where did these two women go? Quickly find them! Don’t let them enter the village!”

Someone replied, “Don’t worry, we have people guarding the village entrance. When we catch these two women, I will definitely teach them a lesson!”

They spat a few mouthfuls of saliva and vented their anger wantonly. Someone even kicked the ground hard, causing sand to fly through the gra.s.s and fall onto her hair. Zhuang Yu widened her eyes in fear, trying to control herself from trembling, she stared at the withered gra.s.s above her head. She was truly frightened.

Shen Hanxing gripped the fruit knife in her hand tightly and shook her head cautiously, gesturing to Zhuang Yu to relax. Those people had been wandering around the area. Some of them had even taken a couple of steps in this direction. Did they perhaps discover them?

Shen Hanxing arched her body, ready to get up and attack at any moment. At this moment, a shout suddenly came from afar, “There’s blood here. They ran this way!”

The group of gangsters instantly rushed towards the spot where the blood was. When the surroundings quieted down, Zhuang Yu heaved a sigh of relief and collapsed on the ground, She quietly asked, “Did-Did they leave?” Zhuang Yu’s voice was trembling, it was as though she was about to cry.

“They left.” Shen Hanxing listened for a while and sat down, “Since the village entrance has been guarded by them, we should rest for a while.” She looked relaxed, but her eyes were solemn. After this ordeal, Zhuang Yu’s body temperature was even higher now. She could not let Zhuang Yu’s high fever go on any further.

Zhuang Yu’s tensed nerves suddenly relaxed. Sensing the chill, she moved closer to Shen Hanxing and muttered, “Mrs. Ji, it’s really cold.” It was so cold that her entire body was trembling.

Shen Hanxing’s heart sank. She knew that they did not have much time left.

However, this short break was even shorter than Shen Hanxing had imagined. Not long after, more and more footsteps were heard. They were searching the surroundings very thoroughly.
