Chapter 734: Love Above All Chapter 93: Proving Determination through Death
Bai Yaxuan was stunned as he looked at the disobedient woman before him, his heart sour with feelings he couldn’t articulate.
If he indulged her, it would never end.
If he didn’t indulge her, he was afraid of hurting her.
After a long while, he took a deep breath, suppressed his temper, picked up a quilt, and said expressionlessly, “I’ll sleep on the floor, you sleep on the bed.”
Gu Xiaoxi watched his retreating back, pouted, and picked up another quilt to cover herself with.
After that, the two of them didn’t exchange a single word and went about their own business.
Gu Xiaoxi didn’t sleep well that night, repeatedly having the sa dream.
She dread of Quan Shaoqing, dread of the happy life they shared together, and even dread of having his child.
When she awoke, she felt it was all too ethereal and elusive.
She seed to be grasping for sothing but ended up with nothing.
The next day, she followed Bai Yaxuan’s arrangents.
Although they were in a cold war, she still helped him as much as she could and gave him face in front of others.
They could return on the third day.
Gu Xiaoxi felt that she could no longer drag out her issues with Bai Yaxuan.
She wanted a divorce, wanted freedom.
This sham marriage was truly exhausting.
No outsiders were left on the plane besides the secretary, Jue Qi, and the pilots.
Gu Xiaoxi mustered all her courage and said to Bai Yaxuan with the sternest words, “Bai Yaxuan, let go!”
She didn’t like him, no matter how outstanding or charming he was.
In this lifeti, she would never like him.
“What did you say?” Bai Yaxuan clenched his fingers, understanding her words but unwilling to accept this reality.
He felt that their relationship was good.
Why break it off?
Gu Xiaoxi looked up, stared deeply into his eyes, and said word by word, “I accompany you in this act every day, and although we appear well-matched to others, don’t you understand? We’re not suited for each other!”
“We’re not suited?” Bai Yaxuan glanced at the white clouds outside, his heart aching as if twisted by knives, “Then who do you think is suitable? Have you ever given a chance?”
She guarded against him at every turn.
Why did they appear well-matched in the eyes of others, yet in her heart, he could never compare to Quan Shaoqing’s slightest smile or frown?
Facing Bai Yaxuan’s relentless pursuit, Gu Xiaoxi had no words.
Because she never liked him, so there was no need to give him any chance.
“Then what can I do to make you let go?” Gu Xiaoxi’s gaze fixedly settled on him as she asked.
There was an indescribable resoluteness in her eyes.
Bai Yaxuan clenched his fingers slightly, turned, facing the airplane’s door, and after a while, he pointed to the door with an indifferent voice, “Jump from here to prove your resolution through death. In that way, I’ll believe you that you’ll never like for the rest of your life. I’ll let you go.”
The plane was shuttling between white clouds, and his every word penetrated her ears.
For a mont, her breath nearly stopped.
He was actually asking her to prove her resolution through death.
Was he too heartless, or did he love her too much, using such a thod to threaten her, unwilling to let her go?
“Ha!” Gu Xiaoxi suddenly laughed with a twisted mouth, her laughter bitterly desolate, “Do you an it?”
“I an it! If you jump and survive, I’ll let you go,” Bai Yaxuan said coldly.
Gu Xiaoxi nodded in understanding.
After all, she ca from another world and was not the Gu Xiaoxi of this tiline.
She wasn’t Bai Yaxuan’s fiancée.
So, what cos will go, right?
If she had to live like a walking corpse for a lifeti, performing life’s play with soone she didn’t like,
She’d rather jump from here and return to the past, becoming the Gu Xiaoxi of her forr life.
…
The airplane’s cabin door opened.
The wild wind whipped about, making it nearly impossible for anyone on the plane to stand steadily.
Jue Qi, on the side, watched with a terrified heart and couldn’t help but persuade, “Your Excellency, let’s talk this out. Why must it co to this?”
Bai Yaxuan gave no side glances, as if he hadn’t heard him at all.
Gu Xiaoxi, holding onto the cabin door, looked out at the sea of clouds before her. From this height, a fall might an being shattered to pieces.
Bai Yaxuan was resolute, as if she didn’t jump, he would never let her leave him.
“Miss Gu, why must you quarrel with His Excellency? We can discuss whatever it is once we’re back ho,” Jue Qi hoped Gu Xiaoxi would recognize her mistake. After all, a life was at stake.
If Gu Xiaoxi stubbornly jumped from the plane, it would certainly be akin to courting death… No, her death would be certain.
But neither of the two he was trying to persuade showed any signs of being moved.
White clouds drifted by, and the view was a blank vista.
Gu Xiaoxi took a deep breath and slowly moved toward the door.
The fierce wind made it difficult for her to keep her balance.
Bai Yaxuan clenched his fists tightly, his gaze as if trying to bore a hole through the woman before him.
Who had frozen all the passion in him? Despite it being midsumr, he felt a chill and desolation he had never known before.
She would rather die than stay by his side, right?
He had tried so hard, respecting her, complying with her, protecting her.
And still, this was her choice.
In what way could he not compare with Quan Shaoqing?
Watching Gu Xiaoxi reach the edge of the cabin door, Jue Qi was like an ant on a hot pan, wishing he could step forward and pull both of the impulsive people back.
He simply couldn’t understand, for a man as outstanding as Bai Yaxuan, there were still won who would rather die than marry him.
Under Jue Qi’s astonished gaze, Gu Xiaoxi suddenly took a step forward…
In the blink of an eye, the woman’s figure floated down like a feather, vanishing in an instant…
Jue Qi stared in horror, his eyes nearly bulging out, because he saw that Bai Yaxuan followed suit and jumped down as well.
Two people, without parachutes or any protection, just like that, they drifted down.
What is this?
Jue Qi was so scared that he couldn’t react.
