Chapter 1528 - 1521: Epilogue (12)
Lu Weixi struggled to lift her head, Qin Zhiyou was right above her, holding tightly to her hand with one hand and grasping a knife with the other, the knife thrust forcefully into the ground. He also hadn’t slept for three days, was highly strung, and had been on the run. Ordinarily, if he had had enough energy, it might not have been so difficult, he might have been able to pull her up with strength. But now, he could barely maintain his grip, preventing Lu Weixi from falling, already overexerting his own strength, let alone anything else.
"Zhiyou, let go," Lu Weixi saw that the knife he held could no longer support the weight of two people and was continuously shifting towards the cliff edge. She feared that if this continued, Qin Zhiyou would fall down with her.
"You, are, saying, what!" Qin Zhiyou gritted his teeth, each word popping out as if he exhausted all his strength, his face contorted intensely. He was originally very handsome, but at this moment, his twisted features were far from "handsome." However, in Lu Weixi’s eyes, perhaps also due to the firelight below her, she felt that Qin Zhiyou at this moment was the most handsome she had ever seen in her life. Even if she were to die here today, having met such a handsome man, she had no regrets.
"Let go, if this continues, both of us will die here."
"I, am, right, here!" Qin Zhiyou declared, clenching his teeth hard, "I, am not going anywhere!" So, you also hold on, never give up until the last moment!
However, it wasn’t that Lu Weixi didn’t want to give up, but that she could not just by wanting. As they both persisted, the downward sliding trend of the knife was equally rapid! Eventually, the knife broke through the cliff edge, failing to support the weight of two people, and fell down. Qin Zhiyou also followed the knife, moving forward, his body sliding down significantly.
"Let go!" Having not eaten for three days, Lu Weixi had even lost the capability to cry. It wasn’t about whether she could persist or not now, but even if Qin Zhiyou didn’t let go, she was losing her strength. Especially since she felt something warm and surging flowing beneath her.
