CHAPTER 1529: CHAPTER 1433: THE WAY YOU PLEADED FOR HER REALLY MADE ME SO ANGRY

Lu Haotian’s face twisted into a grotesque expression: "Gong Xue’er, what do you mean? What do you want in order to let Yangyang go?"

Gong Xue’er said, "The way you plead for Xia Yangyang really infuriates me. I could have let her go, but I simply despise her too much."

"Gong Xue’er, if you kill Yangyang, I will never let you go. Even if it means mutual destruction, I will make sure to drag you down with me. Gong Xue’er, if you kill Yangyang, you will gain nothing. There’s no benefit for you in this. Why are you still doing it?"

Gong Xue’er burst into laughter.

Her gaze locked onto Lu Haotian’s.

She seemed exceptionally pleased, "Haotian, it doesn’t matter. Right now, you can hate me as much as you want. You can even want to kill me, but soon, you’ll forget all of this. The more you hate me now, the deeper you’ll love me in the future. Don’t worry, I don’t care about any of this for now."

Lu Haotian couldn’t make sense of what Gong Xue’er meant.

He only felt that this woman had completely lost her mind.

It seemed Gong Xue’er had firmly made up her mind to kill Xia Yangyang.

No matter how much he begged, it was of no use.

Lu Haotian’s face regained its ferocity, his eyes nearly bulging out of their sockets: "Gong Xue’er, if Yangyang dies, I will tear you limb from limb. I will make sure you have no place to rest, even in death."

But no matter how poisonous his words were,

no matter how desperately he struggled,

everything seemed futile.

Lu Haotian sank into deep despair...

But at that moment,

on the rooftop, they heard the sound of glass shattering.

It came from Xia Yangyang’s room.

A figure leaped through the air.

Gong Xue’er saw it too.

It was Gu Qichen who had found Xia Yangyang in the swimming pool outside the window.

He had smashed the glass with a chair from the room.

And he himself had jumped out through the floor-to-ceiling glass window.

Gong Xue’er’s expression changed slightly.

She had actually anticipated this—someone as sharp as Gu Qichen should have quickly realized that Xia Yangyang had fallen into the water.

But she didn’t expect he would not know exactly how Xia Yangyang had fallen.

Besides, the location of that room was rather unique.

Even if Gu Qichen did figure it out, it would take him at least ten minutes to run from their room to the pool.

By then, Xia Yangyang would already have drowned.

But Gong Xue’er hadn’t expected this.

Gu Qichen would actually jump out himself.

He chose such a dangerous method.

Gong Xue’er furrowed her brows, stood up quickly, and prepared to leave.

But just as Gong Xue’er was about to leave,

she noticed that the rooftop was already crowded with people.

These people were all dressed in black, with matching pants, and they looked like professionally trained bodyguards.

Yet Gong Xue’er didn’t recognize any of them.

How could they have appeared on her island?

Before Gong Xue’er could react,

those people had already stepped forward and restrained her.

Gong Xue’er shouted, "What are you doing? Who are you people? Do you know that I am the owner of this island? This is my territory!"

While being captured, Gong Xue’er barked orders at the men who were restraining Lu Haotian: "What are you standing there for? Hurry up and save me!"

The four men in black quickly released Lu Haotian and ran to Gong Xue’er’s side.

The two groups clashed immediately.

But in the end, Gong Xue’er’s side was weaker, and the four men in black were subdued quickly.

Meanwhile, Lu Haotian was finally able to move.

Ignoring his dislocated arm, he rushed down the rooftop without hesitation.
