Chapter 582: Chapter 586: Growing Old Together_1

The Eagle exerted all its strength, stubbornly dragging the two people forward, leaving deep marks on the ground.

Qiao Duo’er clenched her teeth; she knew she and Tan Zhenghong couldn’t hold on much longer.

But if this Eagle didn’t die today, it would surely seek an opportunity for revenge in the future, which was an inherent pride of Eagles.

Qiao Duo’er summoned all her strength to pull out her dagger; the warm blood that splattered on her face ignited all her fighting cells.

If she could have a good fight and die with Tan Zhenghong by her side, what would it matter?

This resolve instantly restored Qiao Duo’er to her peak strength, and the dagger plunged once more into the Hawk’s chest, right where its heart was!

But that wasn’t enough; after Qiao Duo’er withdrew the dagger, she slashed open its throat again.

If it didn’t die from that, it might as well be considered a spirit!

Fortunately, this Eagle too was made of flesh and blood, and having suffered fatal injuries in two crucial spots, it gradually stopped struggling.

Finally, Tan Zhenghong managed to pin the Eagle to the ground, and as the blood pooled, the Hawk’s life slowly faded away.

After a long while, it finally closed its eyes, filled with unwillingness.

Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong slumped to the ground, panting heavily. Luckily, they had won, and now they could continue to be together.

"Wife, you’re not allowed to risk your life for me anymore," he murmured, holding his wife in his arms.

Qiao Duo’er huffed, "You have the nerve to talk about me, you also fought the Eagle on the roof for me, didn’t you? You even came over to shield me from the Eagle’s attack, didn’t you?"

"Remember, the more you love me, the more I love you—we are the same kind of person."

"Without you, there would be no meaning for me in this world."

Qiao Duo’er spoke from her heart, causing Tan Zhenghong’s eyes to well up.

He said seriously, "We need to live together, grow old together—our lifetime is still very long."

Qiao Duo’er nodded vigorously; she too longed for a love that endured until their hair turned white.

From now on, she wouldn’t gamble with her life, because it was no longer just hers; it belonged to Tan Zhenghong as well.

Only, this scene seemed a bit over the top to her, although they had survived a disaster, they were still alive, weren’t they?

Since they were alive, that meant there was no need for many words—companionship was the longest confession of love.

Ahem, it was just a bit embarrassing.

The next second, the mood shifted abruptly.

"I always knew Xuan San was not right in the head; why didn’t he go and seek revenge on Lord Qin?" Qiao Duo’er said discontentedly.

She also kicked the Eagle lying on the ground, venting the lingering resentment in her heart.

It was Lord Qin’s men who had delivered the message yesterday and held a knife to her throat; she had just played along in a ruse, and it had brought her to the brink of death!

Was there no justice in this world?

And they had targeted her, a defenseless woman—didn’t they feel ashamed?

Humph, she had never seen a man with such a lack of dignity before!

Tan Zhenghong’s mouth twitched involuntarily since they had just been exchanging words of love, and now she had turned into a neurotic goddess.

That was quite a quick change!

But he still responded, "Xuan San is a coward who dares not confront Lord Qin and could only take it out on us, so does that mean we’re just cannon fodder?"

The term ’cannon fodder’ was something he learned from Qiao Duo’er, meaning innocent people.

"You’re pretty good at learning and applying, aren’t you? But we’re not cannon fodder. He picked the wrong ones in targeting us; he’s kicked an iron plate, and Xuan San must be hurting now!"

Qiao Duo’er said gleefully.
