Chapter 727: Dying Together In The Name Of Love
Translator: Lordbluefire
Dr. Xu looked down at the woman he was holding hostage.
She was dressed in a white wedding dress, pure as an angel. But her eyes were looking at him with endless sorrow.
It was as if she had given all her trust to him.
But in the end, he still let her down.
Dr. Xu averted his gaze, not daring to meet those eyes anymore.
Shen Ruojing’s eyes turned red as she looked at Rong Rong and shouted, “Sis Rong, did you already know?”
Rong Rong lowered her head.
How could she not know?
She knew about Dr. Xu’s parents. She had been asking about them boarding the plane yesterday, when they would arrive…
Today, she was still monitoring the flight information.
But when he came in to marry her, when they were playing the shoe-hiding game, she could tell that his mind was elsewhere.
Dr. Xu was a very careful person, otherwise, he wouldn’t have been sent to China as a mole by the Doom Organization. He was a doctor and had good eyesight, so how could he not have seen the shoes in the shoe cabinet?
He didn’t look because his mind was wandering.
At that moment, Rong Rong understood that he hadn’t truly severed his ties with the Doom organization.
His plan for today was probably still going to be carried out.
However, she didn’t expose his disguise. She even cooperated with him and put on the shoes, until she saw the bouquet in her hand when they were leaving.
Then she looked at her only best friend in this life, Shen Ruojing.
She wanted to pass on the happiness and give her blessings, but this bouquet couldn’t be tarnished.
So, she advanced the bouquet-throwing part of the ceremony because she was afraid that if she didn’t, this wedding might not make it to that part…
After that, she put the bouquet back in the restroom because she didn’t want anything impure to taint this pure blessing.
Rong Rong had guessed everything right.
However, she still let Dr. Xu do as he pleased because she believed that Dr. Xu loved her and that his love for her was true, but in the end, she was still wrong.
Neither of his choices included her.
In front of his parents, he chose to abandon her without hesitation…
Rong Rong slowly closed her eyes, letting tears slide down from the corners of her eyes.
Shen Ruojing understood something, and she angrily looked at Dr. Xu. “You promised you wouldn’t hurt her!”
A bitter smile appeared on Dr. Xu’s face. “I didn’t want to. I also like Rong Rong and wanted to grow old with her, but I can’t ignore my parents! They gave me life! They are innocent too!”
His emotions were so intense that his whole body was shaking.
He glared at Shen Ruojing. “Is that research so important? Is it so important that you can ignore Rong Rong’s life?!”
Shen Ruojing widened her eyes. “Dr. Xu, Rong Rong is not at a point where she has to die!”
“Yes, she is.” Dr. Xu had a bitter smile. “They asked me to kill Rong Rong, to make you feel hurt! Only when you truly lose something will you know how painful loss is, so next time, when they catch another one of your relatives or friends, you will be more cautious…”
To put it plainly, Rong Rong was just the beginning.
If Shen Ruojing continued to not hand over that patent, they would continue to hurt all her friends and relatives until she broke down.
And Rong Rong was the scapegoat pushed to the front by them.
Shen Ruojing’s fist clenched slightly as she looked again at Rong Rong.
Dr. Xu shouted, “I give you five minutes to decide. Do you choose Rong Rong or the patent?!”
Shen Ruojing tensed her body.
She looked at Rong Rong and saw a calm face that had maintained an attitude of transcending worldly concerns all day. Rong Rong then gave her a bitter smile and said, “Little Jing, you don’t need to hesitate for me this time. I won’t give others the chance to use me to hurt you anymore.”
After saying these words, Rong Rong suddenly grabbed the gun and struggled.
Dr. Xu was startled, seeming to not have expected Rong Rong to be so resolute.
His finger subconsciously pulled the trigger…
“Bang!”
A gunshot echoed and a spray of warm blood splashed onto Rong Rong’s face.
Feeling stunned, Shen Ruojing watched the scene unfold.
Rong Rong blinked, only to see the man in front of her slowly falling…
There was a bullet hole on his forehead, and blood was gushing…
It was the bodyguard of the Rong family who took advantage of their argument to kill Dr. Xu and saved Rong Rong.
Rong Rong subconsciously embraced Dr. Xu. Her chest felt as if it was tightly gripped by a large hand, causing a pain that made her breathless. She whispered, “Dr. Xu…”
Dr. Xu was looking at her.
Seemingly aware of his impending death, his eyes finally lost their madness. He opened his mouth to Rong Rong and uttered six words, “I’m sorry, I love you.”
Then, his hand slowly fell.
“Dr. Xu, Dr. Xu, don’t die, wake up!” Rong Rong held Dr. Xu, crying loudly. She yelled, but sadly, Dr. Xu never woke up again.
Shen Ruojing stepped forward and embraced Rong Rong.
Rong Rong’s gaze fell on the gun in Dr. Xu’s hand.
No one knew that the reason she was still alive was because of Dr. Xu.
It was Dr. Xu who gave her warmth and respect…
When Rong Rong discovered Dr. Xu’s ulterior motives, she wished for Dr. Xu to kill her, so that she could be free and Dr. Xu could complete his mission…
Even if she was always an insignificant person in this man’s heart.
Now that Dr. Xu was dead, she didn’t want to live anymore…
Suddenly, Rong Rong picked up the gun. With a speed no one expected, she pointed the gun at her own temple and pulled the trigger!
“Little Jing, kill Song Chen! Take revenge for us!!”
