Sensational! Fake Noble VS Real Genius-Chapter 1620: Someone Is Coming
At this moment, a light ring suddenly illuminated around the pillar, and as the ring lit up, the two things inside the pillar began to shake rapidly.
The response from the jade pendant was especially intense, as if it was going to crack the glass pillar. Because of the commotion, alarms sounded throughout the space.
Upon hearing the alarm, Gu Zhiqi paused slightly, glanced at the contents inside the pillar, her eyes deepened.
She didn’t stop her steps and again walked a few more paces forward.
"Be careful."
As Su Yunling’s voice sounded, Gu Zhiqi lightly tapped the ground with her toes, spinning once in mid-air to dodge several hidden arrows.
After landing, Gu Zhiqi immediately placed a Defense Shield around them, and then reached out to touch the pillar.
The moment her fingers touched the pillar, the jade pendant trembled more violently, and a bright white light lit up around the pillar.
It turns out that there was a Formation protecting the outside of the pillar.
Seeing this, Gu Zhiqi clicked her tongue regrettably and retreated from the light ring.
The Formation was quite complex; breaking it would take a considerable amount of time, but obviously there wasn’t any time left now.
At this moment, Su Yunling had already reached the edge of the light ring.
He stretched out his hand, grabbed Gu Zhiqi’s arm, and pulled her into his embrace, "Are you reckless?"
His usually soft and deep voice was tinged with a bit of anger.
Upon hearing this, Gu Zhiqi’s lashes gently trembled, she looked up at Su Yunling, "Brother, I’m fine."
Facing Gu Zhiqi’s gaze, any remaining anger vanished.
Su Yunling let out a long breath, then half-guarded her in his embrace, retreating to a place far from the pillar, "We have to go, someone’s coming up."
Saying this, Su Yunling used Qinggong, taking Gu Zhiqi towards the door.
But just as they flew out, Su Yunling stopped, they were already outside the door, and it was too late to leave now.
Su Yunling turned around, intending to find a place to hide first.
However, the space was an empty stretch with seemingly no place to hide.
Gu Zhiqi slightly raised her head, looking at Su Yunling, suddenly called out to him, "Brother."
Su Yunling instinctively lowered his head, looked at Gu Zhiqi, but after that glance, he didn’t look away.
Because Su Yunling was holding Gu Zhiqi’s waist, at this moment, Gu Zhiqi was leaning against Su Yunling’s chest.
With his gaze lowered, Su Yunling met her eyes, close enough that in her eyes he seemed to see a deep cosmos.
The moment they locked eyes, Su Yunling only felt the surrounding scene rapidly changing.
He couldn’t tell if it was because the scene changed too quickly, making it become illusionary, or because in his eyes, there was only Gu Zhiqi, making everything else seem unreal.
Su Yunling couldn’t clearly see the surroundings; in his eyes, there was only Gu Zhiqi.
All his attention was on her.
Until the scene ceased changing, Gu Zhiqi spoke up, "Brother?"
Upon hearing this, Su Yunling snapped back to reality.
He lightly coughed, shifting his gaze away from Gu Zhiqi, and even moved his hand that was resting on her waist.
Thinking about how he had just stared at Gu Zhiqi and lost focus, Su Yunling felt a bit annoyed. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦
Finally, he understood why TV dramas often show deep gazes in moments of crisis.
Because it’s simply uncontrollable.
For a moment, he even forgot how urgent the situation had been just a moment ago.
Thinking of this, Su Yunling’s mind was somewhat in turmoil.
From now on, he couldn’t let this kind of situation happen again, especially with her by his side.
He could disregard his own safety, but she cannot come to harm.
