Chapter 917 - Unfortunately, You Wouldn’t Have Another Chance
Chapter 917 Unfortunately, You Wouldn’t Have Another Chance
Mu Sijue pushed Xu Youning into the car and took out a pair of handcuffs from under the seat to shackle her.
Compared with Ah Guang who prayed so fervently, Xu Youning was much calmer.
Mu Sijue still believed that she had a reason to “take” Mifepristone and Misoprostol and “kill” their child, which did not conform to his usual decisive style.
But it was enough to show that she was very important to Mu Sijue.
No matter how much he hated her, he would not kill her.
However, she still had to pretend that she didn’t care.
Only in this way would Mu Sijue believe that she really didn’t want to keep the child nor stay with him.
Mu Sijue walked to the driver’s seat and started the car.
The huge off-road vehicle rushed out of the parking spot and sped towards the gate of the hospital like a gust of wind.
Even if Xu Youning fastened her seat belt, she was still pulled forward by inertia and fell back hard. She felt a great impact from both front and back, especially her abdomen.
Subconsciously, she wanted to protect her lower abdomen. But she soon realized it and refrained from doing anything. Her hands clenched into fists at the sides of her body.
It seemed that Mu Sijue didn’t care about anything. But in fact, nothing could escape his eyes.
If she protected her belly at this time, her secret would be exposed and all her previous efforts would go to waste.
Mu Sijue’s handsome face was extremely dark. He held the steering wheel and stared coldly at the front. He overtook other cars one after another as if he were in an empty place, and he even drove through red lights directly if there were no pedestrians.
He was soon spotted by the traffic police who sent several police cars after him but failed to track him down.
Soon, Mu Sijue drove onto the expressway to the suburbs.
When he exited the expressway, Mu Sijue spun the wheel sharply. Consequently, Xu Youning suddenly fell to the right and cracked her head on the window with a dull thud.
Xu Youning rubbed the painful part and looked at Mu Sijue with hatred.
Mu Sijue was expressionless.
Xu Youning suddenly realized that things were different.
Now, Mu Sijue’s only wish was for her to disappear from the world. Why would he care about her being hurt?
Xu Youning restrained herself and looked out of the window.
At this time, the car stopped steadily with a screeching sound.
Xu Youning immediately noticed that they were at the foot of an unknown mountain.
It was a desolate and gloomy place without any surveillance cameras, which was the best place to kill and dump someone.
Xu Youning’s heart jolted.
She was very sure that Mu Sijue still had some affection for her and he would be willing to give her a chance to explain everything.
But this time, she really irritated Mu Sijue.
If she overestimated Mu Sijue’s feelings for her… Mu Sijue might really kill her.
If so, her death would be undeserved.
Mu Sijue glanced at Xu Youning and ordered in a low voice, “Get out.”
Xu Youning pulled the handcuffs on her wrist and said, “Uncuff me!”
Mu Sijue threw the key to Xu Youning with a poker face.
Xu Youning caught the key with her unlocked hand, unbolted the shackle by herself, and got out of the car.
Mu Sijue got off soon afterward and walked toward Xu Youning.
Xu Youning looked around and finally gazed at Mu Sijue and asked, “Why did you bring me here?”
Mu Sijue sneered and said, “What do you think?”
Xu Youning shook her head and answered frankly, “I have a horrible feeling.”
Mu Sijue sneered and said, “Smart girl.”
He lifted his clothes and quickly took out a gun from his waist. The muzzle was pressed against Xu Youning’s forehead.
Xu Youning took a deep breath, stepped back subconsciously, and eyed Mu Sijue warily.
Besides coldness, she couldn’t read any other emotions on Mu Sijue’s face. The gun was pressed against her vital part. When she took a step back, Mu Sijue would take a step forward, showing no intention of letting her go.
Xu Youning couldn’t help swallowing hard.
She had never seen Mu Sijue being so scary. He wouldn’t really kill her, would he?
“Xu Youning,” Mu Sijue said while manipulating the gun. “Click”, the gun was loaded. Then he continued, “I’ll give you another chance. Do you have anything to say to me?”
“I’ll bet on it for the last time,” Xu Youning thought.
She didn’t conceal her panic and just looked into Mu Sijue’s eyes, saying “I’ve said what I should and can say. Now, I have nothing to tell.”
Mu Sijue’s thin lips curved into a faint smile, and he looked sullen and indifferent. “Very good,” he said
He slowly pulled the trigger. The gun could go off at any time.
Xu Youning’s heart thudded madly against her ribs and her voice became weaker. “Mu Sijue, what are you going to do?” She asked.
“Since you’ve never believed me and wanted to return to Kang Ruicheng, how about… I kill you,” Mu Sijue’s eyes were cold, and he was like a large iceberg that had no feelings, “You killed my child and I will kill you. We’re even.”
“…”
Xu Youning’s heart trembled, and she couldn’t help taking another step back. Suddenly, her back hit something and her feet were blocked too.
It had to be a tree.
Before Xu Youning came to her senses, Mu Sijue suddenly used all his strength and pressed her head against the tree trunk with the gun.
She could neither step forward nor move back. What was in front of her was Mu Sijue’s weapon.
Mu Sijue really didn’t intend to give her a chance to live.
Mu Sijue stared at Xu Youning with a scowl. His dark eyes were full of hatred.
He still couldn’t help asking, “Xu Youning, what do you like about Kang Ruicheng? Is he really worth your trust?”
Xu Youning gritted her teeth and thought to herself, “Let me bet for the last time.”
If Mu Sijue really wanted to fire, it wouldn’t be too late to tell him the truth at the last moment.
Xu Youning smiled with a hint of arrogance and contempt. She answered, “Mu Sijue, you will never understand my feelings for Kang Ruicheng. Since you are so interested, let me explain to you.”
“…”
Xu Youning continued, “When I felt most helpless in my life, it was Kang Ruicheng who suddenly appeared and saved me. When I tried to avenge my parents’ death, Kang Ruicheng gave me hope. Later, I almost died in several missions. But Kang Ruicheng would always come to my rescue at every critical moment. So you tell me, how could I not believe him and love him?”
Love.
For the first time, Mu Sijue knew that this word could be so ironic.
It was also the first time that he found this word could hurt someone so badly as if every stroke of the word turned into knives that pierced through his heart one after another.
In that case, what else could he say to Xu Youning?
“Unfortunately,” Mu Sijue scanned Xu Youning’s face and said, “You will never have the chance to go back nor love Kang Ruicheng anymore.”
After saying that, Mu Sijue drew a circle on Xu Youning’s forehead with the gun, in a threatening gesture.
A feeling of chill rose from the bottom of Xu Youning’s heart, which then turned into a deep sense of fear.
Mu Sijue really wanted to kill her.
Should she tell the truth?
Damn it! She didn’t want to die unnecessarily!
Mu Sijue had been observing Xu Youning, so he did not fail to notice her pale face.
He had thought that Xu Youning would not have been afraid.
But now it seemed that Xu Youning didn’t face death unflinchingly.
She didn’t want to die because she wanted to go back to meet Kang Ruicheng, right?
He couldn’t let Xu Youning get what she wanted.
Absolutely no way…
Mu Sijue increased his pressure on the trigger. As long as he exerted a little strength, the bullet would puncture Xu Youning’s head.
Xu Youning opened her mouth and said in a trembling voice caused by fear, “Mu…”
Right at that moment, Mu Sijue seemed to feel uncomfortable suddenly. He closed his eyes and frowned. The gun against Xu Youning’s forehead slipped down to Xu Youning’s chest.
“Mu Sijue,” Xu Youning blurted out, “You…” Realizing that she shouldn’t care about Mu Sijue, Xu Youning suddenly stopped talking.
There was no reaction from Mu Sijue. He still closed his eyes and frowned.
All of a sudden, Xu Youning forgot her fear and almost asked Mu Sijue if he was alright, regardless of everything else.
However, she suddenly realized that this might be an opportunity.
If she didn’t leave now, she may never have another chance and she would be shot dead by Mu Sijue.
Xu Youning didn’t allow herself to hesitate any longer. She grabbed the gun from Mu Sijue’s hand, turned around and ran to the car.
She was very calm: insert the key in the lock, start the car, and turn the car around.
When she left, she glanced at Mu Sijue.
Mu Sijue didn’t move at all, with his head seemingly lowered. It was hard to see his expression clearly.
He wouldn’t be like this if he was not feeling well.
Xu Youning was still so worried that she dialed Ah Guang’s number.
As soon as the phone was connected, Ah Guang asked anxiously, “Sister Youning, how are you?”
“I’m fine,” Xu Youning said, “but there’s something wrong with Mu Sijue.”
“What?” Ah Guang was surprised, and his voice became even more nervous, “What happened to Seventh Brother?”
“I don’t know,” Xu Youning sent Ah Guang the location, “He’s here. Come and pick him up.”
“Oh, okay!” Ah Guang said, “Wait a moment, I’ll be right there.”
Before Xu Youning could speak, Ah Guang hung up the phone.
Xu Youning was distracted for a moment before she put down the phone.
On his way here, Ah Guang would never expect that she abandoned Mu Sijue and left him alone at this time.
With this in mind, Xu Youning looked in the rearview mirror and found that Mu Sijue was no longer within her sight.
If her child really had no chance to come to this world, then this would be the last time she would meet Mu Sijue.
Was this the end of their relationship?
As Xu Youning was distracted, the car almost slipped off the hillside. She quickly spun the steering wheel and left the place.
If fate threw them together again, she would never leave Mu Sijue the next time they met.
If their connection broke here, then she would cherish the short life that God arranged for her.
She had let down a lot of people.
However, the one she felt most sorry for was Mu Sijue…
