Chapter 272: Chapter 272 He’s Here (4)

He Jingyao gently stroked her hair, recalling how pitiful she looked curled up just moments ago, he found it both heart-wrenching and somewhat amusing.

If he hadn’t shown up, she probably would have continued to languish.

Once Su Zixi was certain she wasn’t hallucinating, she became completely uneasy.

“Jingyao!” she urgently lifted her head from his embrace, “How come you are here? By entering like this… can you still get out?”

The man raised an eyebrow, “What do you think?”

Su Zixi was nearly crying out of anxiety, “How could you be so careless? How did they manage to capture you?”

He couldn’t help but chuckle, “I personally came to negotiate with Xia Xinyu, but unfortunately the negotiation failed, so they won’t let me leave.”

“Then why did you come to negotiate personally!” Su Zixi stamped her foot in frustration, “You must know Xia Xinyu’s intentions, right? She has gone mad by now, she surely won’t let you go!”

He Jingyao was slightly taken aback.

He hadn’t expected that the first thing on this woman’s mind upon seeing him would be his safety.

He Jingyao felt a slight stirring in his heart.

“It’s okay, she doesn’t have the guts,” He Jingyao soothed her softly.

“But, but you are still very much in danger!” Su Zixi frowned, “Ziyi has just managed to get out, and now you show up!”

He Jingyao couldn’t help but cover her mouth to stop her continuous chatter, “Su Zixi, do you really think I’m the kind of person who just sits around waiting to die?”

She blinked dazedly.

“I came to rescue you,” he released her, squeezing her cheeks, “I thought you’d be moved and throw yourself into my arms.”

Su Zixi stared blankly for a while, then muttered, “You did it on purpose.”

“Hmm?” he lifted the corners of his mouth.

“You did it on purpose…” Su Zixi sniffled, “Because you didn’t want to leave me here alone.”

“Oh, is that what you think?” he asked, his expression a mix of teasing and seriousness.

Su Zixi’s eyes suddenly teared up.

She sobbed and hugged his neck, “Jingyao, you really didn’t have to do this, it’s too dangerous…”

If it was about rescuing her, there were countless ways to do it, yet he chose to put himself in danger as well.

No matter how capable or strong he was, he was still alone. Moreover, since Xia Xinyu had allowed him in, she definitely would not have let him carry weapons.

It was foolish, really foolish, but…

But Su Zixi felt every cell in her body tremble, the immense loneliness vanishing suddenly, her emotions nearly overflowing, making her want to cry.

She had no right to blame him for his recklessness, because Su Zixi knew what his presence meant to her.

She was no longer alone.

He had not abandoned her.

Just knowing that, she could muster endless courage.

Even if there were firing squads and infernos outside, she wouldn’t be afraid anymore.

He Jingyao suddenly chuckled lightly, “Su Zixi, you’re thinking too much.”

Her sobs stopped, and she stared at him with wide eyes.

“I really just failed the negotiation,” he said earnestly, “Everyone makes mistakes at times.”

Su Zixi couldn’t help but laugh lightly.

“Yeah, everyone makes mistakes,” she said hoarsely, “It wasn’t for me.”

“You can’t quite say that,” he frowned, correcting her, “After all, coming to negotiate with Xia Xinyu was also to save you.”

“Mm-hmm,” Su Zixi responded haphazardly, finally unable to hold back, tears streaming down her face.
