Chapter 872: Critical Situation

No matter which angle Su Wan looked from, she could see the steep stone wall and the roaring ocean waves below.

Last time when she took the transparent observation elevator, Su Wan had already felt her acrophobia. This time, she was even more frightened by such a steep cliff!

Seeing that the car was shaking and Su Wan was still unwilling to grab the branch, Jiang Xuecheng’s heart was in a mess. With a cold face, he almost shouted at Su Wan!

“What are you still standing there for? Come here quickly!”

Before Jiang Xuecheng finished his sentence, the off-road car that could fall at any time leaned forward a little!

The situation was critical. When Su Wan looked up, she saw the handsome and flawless face not far away.

However, at this moment, there was no dignity on Jiang Xuecheng’s body, only fear for the safety of his beloved!

…

In the biting cold sea breeze, the vehicle hanging on the cliff was like a small boat in the sea. No one knew when it would be hit by the big waves!

Su Wan, you can definitely do it!

Believe in yourself! Isn’t it very near?

What are you afraid of?!

Su Wan clenched her teeth tightly. A faint smell of rust seeped out from between her lips and teeth. This astringent smell immediately cleared her mind.

Acrophobia is all a pretense created by the heart!

It’s easy for you to die, but do you really have the heart to leave Jiang Xuecheng alone in this world?!

In fact, he doesn’t even have half a family here, and you’re the only one left!

The strong sense of survival made Su Wan calm down a lot, and she broke away from that muddleheaded state.

She did not care about anything else. She was going all out!

Su Wan immediately clenched her teeth and reached out her hand to grab a tree branch half a meter away!

Because of the CHK Virus No.3 in Su Wan’s body, Jiang Xuecheng was afraid that Su Wan did not have enough strength or that she would suddenly lose all her strength. He quickly released a hand and hugged Su Wan’s waist!

With the help of Jiang Xuecheng, Su Wan used her greatest strength to climb to the center of the tree branch.

By the time Su Wan grabbed the trunk and curled her body on the branch, she was exhausted!

Not only physically, but also mentally!

Su Wan didn’t want to experience such a life-and-death moment again!

Jiang Xuecheng and Su Wan looked at each other and saw the joy of a new lease on life in each other’s eyes.

The two of them had wandered through the gates of Hell, but the most tragic thing was that they were still half-hanging and half-sitting on the tree.

Although the branches of this tree were strong, they might not be able to hold on for long!

Moreover, even if the branches were enough to bear the weight of the two adults, Su Wan knew that both Jiang Xuecheng’s and her own physical strength was limited, so they could not hang here forever!

Below them was a blue sea, and above them were cliffs. They could not find a few places to lean on.

Jiang Xuecheng might still be able to climb up. With Su Wan’s weak body, she had never practiced climbing trees or rocks. What chance did she have to survive?

Therefore, if this continued, the two of them would be finished sooner or later!

…

When Jiang Xuecheng saw Su Wan’s pale face, he knew that this was probably the first time Su Wan had experienced such a moment in her life.

Jiang Xuecheng silently reached out his hand and held Su Wan’s shoulder with extreme gentleness.

“Wan Wan, you did well just now. You’re not a burden to anyone, and you won’t be a burden to me either, understand?”

In a way, Su Wan even had his future in mind.

In fact, a long time ago, Jiang Xuecheng had felt that the world was like a gray sheet. No one or business could arouse his interest.

But Su Wan was different.

She could make him happy, make him laugh, make him sad, and make him suffer.

It was Su Wan who made him understand the meaning of life. She was the meaning of his existence.

When Su Wan was around, Jiang Xuecheng finally understood how boring it was to live like a blank sheet of paper.

Su Wan was stunned when she heard that. She didn’t expect Jiang Xuecheng to expose her thoughts so directly.

She had already vaguely thought that she would drag Jiang Xuecheng down.

No, perhaps it was not just that moment.

After being infected with the CHK Virus No.3, she felt an incomparably heavy stone pressing on her heart, making her unable to pull herself together.

Su Wan forced a smile at Jiang Xuecheng.

“I know, I won’t give up on myself so easily.”

Jiang Xuecheng was about to say something, but all of a sudden, the off-road vehicle not far away shook violently and then suddenly fell down!

With a rumble, it was as if thunder had struck the ground!

Su Wan’s pupils suddenly widened. When she finally reacted, she could not help but let out a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, she was blessed with a great fortune. If she had been a few more seconds later, she would have been buried in the sea with the off-road vehicle!

Su Wan lowered her head and looked down. From afar, water splashed everywhere, but soon, the sea returned to its original appearance.

The wind blew fiercely. Su Wan did not dare to look down too much. As long as she thought about how she and Jiang Xuecheng were hanging on the cliff, Su Wan’s heart could not be at peace.

“Jiang Xuecheng, what should we do next? I don’t know how long this tree can hold…”

When Xuecheng heard Su Wan’s words, the corners of his lips could not help but curl up, and a mischievous look appeared in his perfect ink-colored eyes.

“Wan Wan, I used to complain that you were like a paper person, and it hurt when I carried you. Only now do I know that it’s more beneficial for you to be thinner.”

For example, on this cliff branch, the weight of the two of them could be reduced.

Su Wan glanced at Jiang Xuecheng speechlessly.

“Hey, why are you still in the mood to joke at a time like this?”

Jiang Xuecheng shrugged his shoulders. He looked up at the flowing clouds in the sky and said to Su Wan casually.

“Wan Wan, do you still remember the day I threw your ring away? Actually, I fell off the edge of the waterfall that day, but look, am I still alive and well?”

Jiang Xuecheng’s tone was extremely relaxed, as if he was describing a casual matter.

But when Su Wan heard it, her heart ached!

So at that time, in order to save her from the river, Jiang Xuecheng had actually been washed down!

When she woke up, Jiang Xuecheng was already by her side. She only thought that Jiang Xuecheng had choked on too much water to save her, which was why he had suffered such injuries!

Su Wan’s eyes reddened. She inexplicably thought of the day Jiang Xuecheng had accompanied her to look for the ring. From the bottom, she could see how steep the cliff at the headquarters of the God’s Palace was!

How many dangers had Jiang Xuecheng experienced while climbing up?

Su Wan didn’t dare to think about it further.

Jiang Xuecheng felt extremely helpless when he saw Su Wan’s misty tears. He gently pinched Su Wan’s face.

“Wan Wan, that’s all in the past. I’m saying this to tell you that there’s hope in this situation. Why are you looking like this?”
