Chapter Thirty-six Midnight Fright

  Unable to contact anyone, and with the heavy rain pouring down, Chu Qingqiu became impatient, her anxious expression unconcealed in front of Qin Shao Huang.

  "Don't be afraid!" A hand reached out and grasped the small one that was tightly clutching the hem of her dress on her knee.

  Chu Qing's eyes widened in shock as she looked up at him, seemingly unable to believe that those two heart-stopping words had come from his mouth. In all these days, he had never shown such gentleness, not even a few years ago. Yet, at this moment, his voice was filled with warmth, ringing true and clear in her ears, like a dream.

  At this time, it was a life-and-death sprint. Qin Shao Huang didn't care at all and saw Chu Qingqiu looking up at him, still having the heart to turn his head and smile back at her.

  His hand was dry and warm, unbelievable, stuck to his own, only felt a warm current from the palm of his hand to her icy back of the hand, spreading throughout her body.

  "Qin Shaohuang, will we die?"

  When it comes to death, most people are terrified, and few people are as calm as Chu Qingqiu.

  "I won't!" Hearing Chu Qingqiu suddenly say this, his deep pupils suddenly contracted, and his voice was firm with a reassuring power.

  "So, Qin Shao Huang, if we're okay this time, can we get along well from now on? Don't touch other women again before you get tired of me, okay?"

  Perhaps it was because the atmosphere between the two people had less of that tense and more of a rare calm, or perhaps it was because in times of crisis, everything they wanted to say and do followed their deepest thoughts, Chu Qingqiu made such a request to Qin Shao Huang.

  Qin Shaohuang did not expect Chu Qingqiu to say such words, his facial expression remained unchanged, but his heart was slightly stirred.

  The long silence made Chu Qing's small face dim, she struggled to free her hand from Qin Shao's grasp, wanting to leave, unwilling to indulge in his kindness anymore, unwilling to drown in his gaze and unintentional movements.

  He nodded and said "Good!"

  The voice was very low, if it weren't for the quietness of this carriage, you wouldn't be able to hear it clearly.

  Fortunately, Chu Qing's pale face lit up instantly, with a deep dimple at the corner of her mouth, tempting people to commit crimes.

  "Really?" The small hand in his palm suddenly exerted force, flipping over and grasping his large hand tightly, as if afraid of losing it. His voice was also tinged with urgency, urgently seeking confirmation!

  Qin Shaohuang could feel her joy, though he didn't understand where it came from, but just like the inexplicable joy that rose up in his heart when he had just heard her say "don't touch other women again", it was indescribable.

  Just about to respond, but an accident suddenly occurred.

  The car body was heavily hit, and it turned out that in this short ten minutes, those few cars had completely caught up, and even two of them had overtaken them. At this moment, they were blocking the road, stopped in front, with one on each side hitting their car, and from the rearview mirror, there were also two following behind, a total of six. This situation seemed to be surrounding them!

  Qin Shaohuang's expression changed, and he withdrew his hand that had been grabbed by Chu Qingqiu, placing it back on the steering wheel. With a practiced motion, he turned the wheel to avoid being hit by cars on both sides!

  It was no longer a good time to continue talking, Chu Qingqiu understood. Although it was a bit uncomfortable to have an empty hand, she didn't dwell on it too much. Instead, she cooled her face and faced the danger ahead with Qin Shao Huang together.

  The reason why the car in front was getting closer and closer, Qin Shaohuang slowed down, the highway in the suburbs is not as spacious as the city, three cars are driving side by side, it's already very dangerous, let alone those two cars are coming to crash, Qin Shaohuang's movements were familiar, but he was gradually unable to cope with being hit by the two cars.

  The car had been bumped several times, and Chu Qingqiu's body was occasionally bumped, hurting her tightly furrowed eyebrows.

  Ahead was no longer accessible, and the car was forced to stop, but even at this time, Qin Shao Huang's momentum remained unchanged.

  "Are you hungry?" Qin Shao Huang suddenly turned his head and asked Chu Qingqiu in a warm voice.

  "Huh?" In this situation, Chu Qingqiu really hadn't expected Qin Shaohuang to ask such a question, and was taken aback!

  Seeing her silly appearance, Qin Shao Huang couldn't help but laugh out loud. It wasn't a faint smile or an insincere one, but a genuine smile that reached the bottom of his eyes.

  "I'm asking you, are you hungry?" Qin Shao Huang asked again in a good temper and reached out to stroke Chu Qingqiu's head, mussing her hair.

  "I'm hungry!" Chu Qingqiu was completely captivated by Qin Shaohuang at this moment, staring at him without blinking, and responding to his words.

  "Uh-huh!" He nodded "We'll go back and eat later!" He said, but Chu Qingqiu always felt that there was something behind his words, inexplicably making her tense.

  The woman's sixth sense was indeed accurate, because after he finished speaking, he actually opened the car door and got out. All of this happened in an instant, and Chu Qingqiu didn't even have time to react. The car door slammed shut with a bang, and then the sound of gunfire rang out from outside!

  Chu Qing's eyes widened in terror as he looked out, seeing him standing tall with his powerful hands gripping two compact handguns aimed at the off-road vehicle! On a morning after a heavy rain, behind him blooming

  Rendered as background, the red sun is like fire, and he is like a god, isolated from the world, yet like a king who holds the power of life and death, wherever he stands, millions of people surrender!

  Qin Shaohuang's car had been modified, the car and glass could withstand the latest and most powerful bullets. The people on that side were clearly aware of this, so they hadn't gotten out of the car for so long, and there was another point, Qin Shaohuang's marksmanship was accurate, they understood thoroughly, fearing that as soon as they opened the door to get out, they would be shot in the head. They had cut off their communication devices, but they did have the intention of dragging it out with them.

  These were things that Qin Shaohuang knew in his heart, but he got off the car. It wasn't until much later that Chu Qingqiu remembered this incident and asked him why he had done it. Why hadn't he waited for rescue instead of taking a risk? At first, he didn't answer, but after she asked several times, he finally spoke up and said, "At that time, I couldn't gamble on whether those people would make a desperate move or not, whether they would consider the consequences and not care about the explosives and gasoline, and rush forward to die together. So I got off the car, even if I didn't know how many people were in those six cars, I was willing to take that risk." Chu Qingqiu was shocked by these words, her emotions stirred, and she was enchanted by his bold and domineering side. However, what made Chu Qingqiu even more moved was the sentence he added afterwards, seemingly unintentional and casual, "Because you said you were hungry!"

  That careless tone, however, warmed up Chu Qingqiu's entire life afterwards. In her life, there was once someone who, just because of her saying "I'm hungry", rushed to her side without hesitation! Even though that "I'm hungry" was said in response to his question!
