Chapter 1130: Chapter 1130 - I Bet My Life On It

Translator: Yunyi

Huo Si’s voice was very calm, and it was filled with endless ruthlessness.

The car was driving very fast, and the bullets ricocheted off the glass.

Song Yaoyao had to hold on tightly to prevent herself from being thrown out of the twisting car.

In the end, she simply bent down and slid off the seat. She half-knelt down, reached under the seat, and soon touched a box. She pulled the box out and opened it.

The black pistol gave off a metallic luster.

F*ck!

At this moment, Huo Si cursed in his heart.

“Miss Song…”

Song Yaoyao looked up and saw that the high beams in front of her were blinding, illuminating the entire road as if it was daytime.

They were trapped on both sides.

The distance drew closer and closer.

Song Yaoyao looked sideways and suddenly smiled.

“Huo Si.”

Huo Si’s throat was dry and hoarse. He was not afraid of death, but he did not want a good girl like Miss Song to die here.

Moreover, his teacher’s life and death were unknown. If Miss Song also…

He did not dare to think about it.

“Speak.”

“Do you believe in my luck?”

Huo Si was stunned. He could not guess why Song Yaoyao would suddenly say this at this time. She just quickly rolled down the car window and looked at the approaching distance. Suddenly, she ordered Huo Si in a deep voice, “Now, listen to me and turn around!”

“What—”

Huo Si didn’t have time to think. At this moment, he didn’t know why he trusted Song Yaoyao so much.

The girl’s calm voice was like a breeze in this chaotic night, slowly blowing into people’s hearts.

For some reason, Huo Si also calmed down.

He turned the steering wheel fiercely and turned around.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

The people chasing the car were stunned. They thought that they knew that there was no way out, so they had given up.

But why did they turn around?

There was a vast sea in front of them. Under the strong light, they could vaguely see the blue waves.

“Drive the car into the sea!”

“What?”

“Drive!”

Song Yaoyao’s voice was cold and harsh. “Other than that, do we still have a choice?”

The car coming from the opposite side was obviously not there to support them.

There was only one possibility, and that was to take their lives.

Huo Si gritted his teeth and stepped on the accelerator.

Splash!

A huge wave rose.

Song Yaoyao held her breath a second before she entered the water.

Huo Si released the steering wheel and turned his head.

The car continued to sink.

Song Yaoyao made a hand gesture at him, indicating that she was okay.

Huo Si was relieved.

Their attackers stood on the shore and fired multiple rounds at the surface of the sea.

Some even jumped in to find them.

It was almost impossible to open her eyes in the water. Song Yaoyao held onto the car seat and stuffed a dagger into Huo Si’s hand while pointing at the dark silhouettes.

Huo Si understood what she meant.

He glanced at Song Yaoyao. He couldn’t see clearly through the water but he could vaguely sense that she was smiling at him.

He felt relieved.

He climbed out of the car window and quickly went up to meet those people.

Song Yaoyao’s eyes were smiling.

Her body gradually lost strength, and the water squeezed the air from her lungs.

Huo Si didn’t know that Song Yaoyao couldn’t swim…

In her previous life, she was a weak patient with heart disease. Even if she wanted to help, she was powerless.

Before she lost consciousness, Song Yaoyao climbed out of the window.

She admitted that she was gambling, but this time, the bet was her life.

As blood dyed the sea red, the foreign men in black by the shore laughed loudly.

“They’re definitely dead!” someone said fiercely.

Seconds and minutes passed.

In only a few minutes, it felt like an entire century had passed.

The men who were smoking and squatting on the shore saw a corpse gradually floating on the surface of the sea. They laughed loudly and ordered people to go down and fish for it.

When the corpse that was facing down turned around and the light flickered, everyone fell silent.

An invisible pressure spread in the air, and no one could laugh.

Just like that, more and more corpses floated up.

But the person they were looking for was gone—

…

At a holy and tall church. The flags on the church fluttered in the wind, and snow-white seagulls circled above the nearby sea.

The faint sound of a hymn could be heard.

Cough, cough, cough…

Song Yaoyao slowly woke up. Her throat was in so much pain that it was as if someone had stabbed it. The pain caused her eyes to quickly become moist.

This room was not big. Black and white nun clothes hung on the clothes rack. There were dark red carpets, gold decorations, and wooden benches.

Was this a church?

She saw the portrait of Jesus hanging in the room and the cross pattern carved on the table.

It seemed, she had won her bet…

Song Yaoyao coughed twice and sat up from the bed.

Did someone save her? Or…

Just as this thought appeared in her mind, the sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor came from outside the door.

Tap—

The man in the priest’s outfit had a handsome face. His exposed skin was pale underneath the black clothes. His blue pupils and blood-stained lips made him look like a vampire from a book.

Their eyes met.

The priest smiled gently and mysteriously. “Oh! My dear little angel, we meet again.”

Song Yaoyao coughed and her eyes curved. “Father Nolan.”

“It seems that you still remember me.”

The young priest poured a glass of water, walked over to Song Yaoyao, and handed it to her. “But you look terrible. Maybe you can tell me what happened.”

The sweet water moistened Song Yaoyao’s throat, and it finally didn’t hurt as much. She let out a breath and looked at Nolan silently.

Her eyes were very dark and bright. When she looked at people faintly, it always made their hearts soften.

Nolan was the same.

“Oh, okay, okay.” He spread his hands. “It’s okay if you don’t want to talk about it. Have a good rest first.”

“Is this a church?”

Nolan was stunned when he heard this. A moment later, he smiled mysteriously and said, “You can say that. This is my place. You can relax and recover here.”

“Thank you.”

Song Yaoyao knew that Nolan was not a simple person.

In the few times they met, Huo Jiu, who was as calm as ever, had developed a strong sense of hostility and wariness towards Nolan.

Even though Huo Yunque did not stop her from meeting Nolan later on, but until now, Song Yaoyao still didn’t know whether Nolan was a friend or foe.

Moreover, where did he get Song Lanchuan’s letter? Her brother was clearly in another world.

Song Yaoyao couldn’t explain any of this.

…

Nolan did as he said. If Song Yaoyao did not tell him, he would not ask.

He stood up and left quickly, allowing Song Yaoyao to sort out her messy thoughts.

Who had sent those people after them?

Lancaster?

She did not know what kind of business Huo Yunque was in and how powerful he was in Country Y.

However, from his position, there must be a lot of people who wanted Huo Yunque dead.

Song Yaoyao was obviously still very tired, but she could not fall asleep.

The hymn from afar was faintly discernible, but it could not calm the anxiety in Song Yaoyao’s heart.

She had already changed her clothes, and Nolan had even thoughtfully prepared a change of clothes for her.

…

The church was empty. Song Yaoyao looked up, and the huge cross and the crucified Jesus hung high in the center.
