Chapter 719: Despair And Hatred

Officer Li saw that Su Wan and Ming Ye were running faster and faster, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood!

“Chase them, don’t let them escape!”

He was not a fool. When Su Wan and Ming Ye ran in the opposite direction of the exit, Officer Li immediately understood their intentions!

This man and woman wanted to jump into the river!

Upon closer inspection of Ming Ye’s face, which seemed somewhat familiar, Officer Li’s face instantly changed color!

Wasn’t that the wanted criminal ordered by the High Priest? He said that as long as he didn’t die, he could bring him back by any means!

He actually got in touch with that Miss Su!

Nowadays, wanted criminals all liked to commit crimes in groups?!

…

A vast river was calm and tranquil. Under the sunlight, it emitted a sparkling light.

The more Officer Li thought about it, the more worried he felt.

Back then, he had made a military order saying that he would definitely bring Su Wan there unscathed. Now, Su Wan actually risked her life to gamble!

No, how could this be!

Putting aside Su Wan jumping into the river and hurting herself, this could be said to have nothing to do with him. However, the scariest thing was that what if Su Wan really jumped into the river and escaped!

He was afraid that he would lose his hard-earned official title!

A flash of anger flashed across Officer Li’s eyes. He glanced at the guards beside him angrily and ordered decisively.

“Shoot directly. Don’t use lethal bullets! Just remember not to hurt Su Wan!”

“Aim at that man and that detestable robot!”

He had only promised the emperor that he would bring Su Wan back unscathed, but he had never promised not to hurt the people around her!

If he succeeded in capturing her this time, he would have made two contributions at once!

Not only did he complete the high priest’s mission, but he also fawned on the Emperor.

Officer Li’s face revealed an eager expression, and his original dejected expression was swept away!

He really didn’t know how Miss Su and that man got together…

But now was not the time to care about this…

He believed that he would win!

…

Hearing the noisy footsteps behind her, Su Wan stumbled and almost fell to the ground.

Without thinking, Ming Ye instantly grabbed Su Wan’s hand and rushed forward with her.

They were only dozens of meters away from the finish line. A wide river was in front of them. Birds were flying gently on the surface of the water, as if victory was in front of them.

Suddenly, Su Wan heard a few intense gunshots!

Su Wan was shocked and her face turned pale.

She had never thought that Jiang Xuecheng would want to kill her!

Even if Jiang Xuecheng wanted to find her, there was no need to resort to violence, right?!

However, what was even more terrifying was that Su Wan suddenly heard a heavy thud on the ground!

This sound…

Su Wan’s eyelids twitched a few times. As she ran, she looked back and saw that Nono had suddenly fallen to the ground.

The petite robot fell to the ground dejectedly.

The bright sunlight shone down on its rusty silver body, constantly emitting a cold metallic glow.

Nono struggled to crawl on the ground. It was really unwilling to give up.

It had just been shot in the center of the electronic circuit. The energy box was broken, and it lost its strength in an instant. All its energy was dissipating from the hub.

It was clearly a robot, and it had never understood what pain felt like.

But at this moment, Nono felt that it was in so much pain, so disappointed, and so desperate.

Su Wan wanted to escape, so it knew that it should not drag its master down.

Its body stiffened, but its fingers trembled violently. It waved at Su Wan with difficulty.

–Goodbye, my master.

The corner of Nono’s lips tried to smile. The energy was dissipating faster and faster. It did not even have the strength to speak. It could only point at the shape of its lips.

This scene only happened for one or a second, but time seemed to be frozen.

Seeing Nono being defeated on the ground, Su Wan instantly broke down!

It was as if there was an invisible hand gripping her heart, constantly tugging at it. It was so painful.

She had already lost so much.

Jiang Xuecheng did not remember her. The child was gone. The wedding ring was gone. Now, even Nono was leaving her!

Su Wan could not care less about running away. She wanted to run back hysterically.

“No — Nono!”

The memories of the past rushed into her mind. Su Wan’s eyes turned red!

If it wasn’t for her, Nono wouldn’t have been shot and wouldn’t have died!

However, Ming Ye pulled her back with extreme force. His jade-like eyes shone with a cold light, like a beast lurking in the dark night.

“Su Wan, are you crazy?”

He berated her heavily. Without waiting for Su Wan to answer, Ming Ye forcefully dragged Su Wan and ran forward.

They were about to escape, so why would Su Wan be stupid?!

Moreover, that robot was defeated because of them.

If they raised their hands and surrendered now, wouldn’t it mean that all their previous efforts had been in vain?

If they shot the circuit hub, that robot would definitely be crippled. What was the point of running back?!

Ming Ye pursed his lips. He saw that they were only a few steps away from the surface of the river.

He grabbed Su Wan’s thumb and forcefully pulled her forward.

“That robot is doing this for you!”

“If you run back, you will have truly let it down!”

The two of them fell at the same time. At the last second before they jumped into the river, Su Wan heard Ming Ye say this.

The man’s eyes were covered with a layer of frost. His cold words caused Su Wan to be momentarily stunned.

In an instant, water splashed all over the sky. The water birds that were searching for food on the river surface scattered in all directions. They flapped their wings and flew high into the air.

The river water continued to churn. The strong impact hit Su Wan’s body. It was bone-chilling.

Su Wan wanted to swim up again, but Ming Ye grabbed Su Wan’s hand and forcefully dragged her into the river water.

Su Wan kept sinking. Cold water poured into her ears and nose from all directions. The pressure on her two ears were uneven, and the dense water droplets seemed to be raining in her ears.

An electric current started to sound in her ears, and even her vision became blurry.

The blood on Su Wan’s face faded away bit by bit. Her eyes were red, and tears mixed with the dirty river water flowed down together.

She really hated herself. She hated herself for being useless. She hated herself for not being able to keep all the people and things that she liked.

She had never been so desperate in such a moment.

She really had nothing left.

Su Wan’s mind was a mess. In a trance, the image of Nono lying on the ground appeared in front of her eyes.

Her heart suddenly twitched. She was completely disheartened. The pain was heart-wrenching.

It was as if there were bugs crawling on her heart, constantly tearing at her flesh and blood.

Nono…

Her Nono…

The Nono who lived by her side…

Su Wan’s eyes were frighteningly hot, and tears kept rolling down her face.

However, those tears mixed with the river water, and no one could tell whether they were tears or the river water.
