Ning Dao Covered with Snow

Chapter 253 The Last Concern

Chapter 253 The Last Concern
Xie Tanyu wanted to dodge backwards, but he suddenly felt dizzy and his movements slowed down.

The paper cutter stabbed into his heart, and the pain brought him back to consciousness in an instant.

Fortunately, the blade of the paper cutter was relatively short, and Xie Chusong was not very strong, so the cut did not injure his internal organs.

Blood slowly overflowed, staining the collar of the clothes red.

Xie Chusong let go of her hand and staggered back. She looked at the blood on her hand and murmured in disbelief: "I killed someone, I actually killed someone..."

Xie Tanyu endured the excruciating pain and pulled out the paper cutter with one hand.

He threw the knife to the ground, covered his wound, and fell into a chair, saying to Xie Chusong who was in a trance.

"What are you still standing there for? Go!"

Xie Chusong was completely panicked at this moment. She had never experienced such a situation before and had no idea how to deal with it.

She subconsciously followed her father's instructions, picked up the paper cutter on the ground, and stumbled out.

Xie Tanyu covered the wound on his chest with force, and blood continued to flow out. Although the wound was not fatal, it could be fatal if the bleeding continued.

He supported himself on the armrests of the chair, gritted his teeth and tried to stand up. He remembered that there were some spare medicines in the drawer of the bookshelf.

But when he finally stood up, that dizzy feeling came back.

He had no choice but to fall back into the chair and shook his head hard, trying to clear his mind.

But unfortunately it was of no use. He felt more and more dizzy, his brain became more and more confused, and his body gradually lost strength.

Yan Ci Wan looked at his appearance and knew that it was the Datura stramonium that was taking effect.

At this moment, Xie Tanyu had already noticed something was wrong. He looked at the teacup on the table and stretched out his left hand tremblingly, wanting to smash it to make a noise to attract outsiders.

Finally, his hand stopped in mid-air and fell down weakly.

He leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

After a moment, a figure walked in quietly.

——When Xie Chusong ran out just now, he actually forgot to close the door!
Yan Ci Wan looked at the person who was coming. He was walking against the moonlight. The huge white moon was emitting a cold glow behind him. His face was hidden in the darkness and could not be seen clearly.

Only when we got closer did his face gradually become clear.

It's a thank you gift!

He walked to the desk, looked at the unconscious Xie Tanyu, pulled out the dagger without hesitation, and stabbed her hard!

The danger brought by death stimulated Xie Tanyu and made him wake up suddenly!

He opened his eyes and looked at the person in front of him in shock.

However, before he could struggle, the blade had already pierced his heart. His whole body stiffened and he began to twitch and tremble uncontrollably, and soon he closed his eyes and lay motionless.

Xie Li pulled out the dagger and threw it aside, then took away the memorial on the desk.

He tightly grasped the memorial that would have ruined him, and looked at Xie Tanyu with eyes full of resentment.

"You forced me to do this!"

Xie Li took the memorial and left the study, and the door was closed again.

Yan Ciwan looked at Xie Tanyu, who was slumped in the chair and had no breath left.

His eyes were closed, his shirt was soaked in blood, his left hand hung limply at his side, his right hand was on his thigh, and his palm was still tightly holding the white jade Buddha amulet.

Suddenly, his eyelashes trembled, and then slowly opened.

Yan Ciwan was very surprised that he was still alive!

Xie Tanyu raised his right hand with difficulty. He wanted to hide the white jade Buddha amulet in the drawer under the desk.

But he was injured too badly, and his hand fell down quickly after he raised it.

At the same time, footsteps were heard outside the door.

Someone is coming! Xie Tanyu looked at the door, her lips slightly opening and closing.

Yan Ciwan bent down and moved closer to him, listening carefully.

He was saying: "Little Prince, don't come in, go away..."

The sound gradually faded away.

Yan Ciwan turned his head and saw that Xie Tanyu's eyes were still open, but his nostrils and chest had stopped moving.

That was just his last glimpse before death.

The moment of resurrection was like a dream, and now the dream is gone, and his life is over.

And at his last moment, he was still worried about Xiao Wang.

At the same time, there was a light knock on the door, and Xiao Wang's voice came in through the door.

"Envoy, it's me."

Yan Ci Wan did not move, because she knew that she was just a spectator and she could not change everything that happened in this time and space.

So she could only watch the door being pushed open. Xiao Wang stepped over the threshold and walked in. He saw Xie Tanyu sitting motionless in the chair.

Yan Ciwan turned his head to look at Xie Tanyu and saw that he was still holding the white jade Buddha amulet in his right hand.

He was afraid that it would fall to the ground and break, so he held it with all his strength and did not let go even when he was dead.

Twenty years ago, he placed a similar amulet in the child's arms.

That was their first meeting, but Xie Tanyu was the only one who remembered it.

Perhaps Xie Tanyu called Xiao Wang here tonight just to tell him that they had met briefly twenty years ago.

At this moment, the person he was waiting for finally came in front of him, but he could no longer speak.

Seeing that the person sitting behind the desk did not react at all, Xiao Wang realized something was wrong. He walked over slowly and finally stopped beside Xie Tanyu.

He finally discovered that Xie Tanyu was no longer alive.

He wanted to leave this place of trouble immediately, but when he turned around, he paused for a moment, and then he stretched out his hand as if possessed by a ghost and gently covered Xie Tanyu's eyes.

He helped Xie Tanyu close her lifeless eyes.

After doing this, Xiao Wang looked at his hands, as if he didn't understand why he did this?
But the situation was special now, he didn't have time to think deeply and quickly left the study.

After a while, Xie Li rushed in with the palace soldiers. They carried away Xie Tanyu's body and forcibly took Xiao Wang away as the murderer.

The door of the study was locked from the outside and sealed.

Yan Ciwan was the only one left in the room.

The sound of clappers outside the mansion meant that the third watch had passed.

She was thinking that she should go back.

As if sensing her thoughts, a familiar sound of piano came into her ears.

She followed the sound and walked out. The door of the study was still closed, but she could pass through it easily. She strode forward, left the governor's mansion, walked along the street for a long distance, and finally returned to Yunkelai.

It was quiet inside Yunkelai. I couldn't see anyone as I walked along the way and all the rooms were pitch black.

Only one room had the light on.

That was the guest room where she lived!
Yan Ciwan quickened his pace and ran over. The door was only ajar and was blown open by a gust of wind.

She stepped over the threshold and ran into the guest room, where she saw Xiao Wang sitting behind a desk. On the desk in front of him was a guqin. His fingertips plucked the strings, and melodious sounds poured out like flowing water.

Although she knew he couldn't hear her, Yan Ciwan still said it out of habit.

"I am back."
