Reborn Girl: Prince Charming's Hot Wife

Gong Lingye's face was pale, and his eyes were half-closed. His wet hair was stuck to his forehead, and even though he had fallen into a difficult situation and lost his oppressive aura, he still gave people a sense of nobility.    

    

Soong Yiren stood in front of him and looked down at him before turning around and leaving.    

    

At this time, the wind seemed to have changed and the seawater seemed to be the intersection point of the rising and falling tide. The waves that had just pushed people up seemed to have the tendency to pull people into the water.    

    

Soong Yiren had just taken two steps when she noticed that Gong Lingye was swept back into the water by the waves. He looked like he was half floating and half sinking, as if he would be swallowed by the water at any time.    

    

Her eyes stared coldly for two seconds before she retracted her gaze and continued to calmly walk forward to check the situation of this small island.    

    

This island was really small. It was probably no bigger than a football field. The entire island was probably a protruding seabed reef.    

    

The vegetation around the island was very little. Soong Yiren estimated that when the tide rose, the island would only be able to reveal a small tip.    

    

It was just that because there were many stones, Soong Yiren really found a place to hide.    

    

That was a natural hollow formed by reefs. It could accommodate two or three people. Looking from the outside, it was really inconspicuous. If she did not look carefully, she would not have been able to find it.    

    

Soong Yiren walked in and planned to rest first before thinking of a way to wait for rescue. However, just as she sat down, she heard some movement outside.    

    

Her heart shivered. Could it be that those people had come to find her?    

    

Gong Lingye was half-dead in the water. Would he be discovered?    

    

Actually, it was clearly better if he was taken away. That meant she was safe. However, Soong Yiren took a deep breath. She felt that although Gong Lingye harmed her, it was still a fresh life after all. She should not have left him to die.    

    

As she was thinking, her vision suddenly darkened. Soong Yiren was on full alert, but she realized that the person who came in was Gong Lingye.    

    

He pursed his lips. His condition was clearly not good. After entering, he sat down straight and touched Soong Yiren's shoulder with his arm.    

    

"I thought you would help me." His tone was calm.    

    

Soong Yiren sneered and her eyes were cold. "I am here because of you. I wish that you would die outside. How could I help you?"    

    

Gong Lingye turned his head and looked at Soong Yiren for two seconds. He wanted to say something but stopped himself.    

    

After a while, he said, "Sorry."    

    

He did not deliberately harm her, because he knew from the beginning that those people were coming for him.    

    

They wanted his life and other interests.    

    

Whether it was Soong Yiren or Gu Tingxue, those people should not have any killing intent towards them in the beginning. After all, they did not want to offend the Gu family, and the people at Gong Mochen's birthday banquet were either rich or noble. There was no need for them to make enemies for no reason.    

    

However, in order to survive, he killed those people. That was why those people really wanted to kill Soong Yiren.    

    

However, the reason why he dragged her into the water was because Gu Tingxue's health had been very poor since she was young. Being able to live until now was almost a gift from the heavens. Just like at this moment, if it was Gu Tingxue, perhaps both of them would have died in the sea.    

    

Gong Lingye had always made the most rational decision and choice. But this time he really owed Soong Yiren because if he did not deliberately mislead those people, then she would have definitely escaped.    

    

So, it was equivalent to him forcing Soong Yiren to help Gu Tingxue block an unforeseen event that could endanger her life.    

    

Gong Lingye felt weak all over and could not be bothered to explain the cause and effect clearly. In short, he owed her and it was understandable for her to hate him.    

    

Sure enough, the next second, he heard Soong Yiren scoff lightly, "Mr. Gong, you are really deep in love!"    

    

He actually used the life of another innocent woman to exchange for the safety of his woman!    

    

When Gong Lingye heard the word "deep in love," he suddenly remembered Soong Yiren's confession to Gong Mochen on the cruise. He put away his smile. "We are all the same."    

    

Soong Yiren did not say anything else. Everything around them quietened down, and Gong Lingye's heavy breathing became obvious.    

    

He felt that the pain in his shoulder blade was somewhat numb. If he did not take out the steel nail, he was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the pain.    

    

He took out the Swiss Army Blade from his pocket and said to Soong Yiren, "Can I trouble you to help me take out the steel nail on my back shoulder?"    

    

Gong Lingye seemed to be afraid that Soong Yiren would refuse and said, "When I am rescued, I will give you the corresponding reward."    

    

"No need." Soong Yiren said lightly. "You helped me before. This time, I helped you. You don't have to thank me!"    

    

The corner of his lips curled into a mocking smile and said, "Okay."    

    

Although she agreed, Soong Yiren was still shocked when she saw Gong Lingye's wound.    

    

The nail was clearly embedded deep into his flesh. She could only vaguely see the tail of the nail, which was submerged in his flesh.    

    

From the bloodstains on his shirt, it could be seen that a lot of blood had flowed out from his wound. However, after being soaked in seawater, his wound had already turned white.    

    

Soong Yiren raised her hand and gestured. She realized that because Gong Lingye was taller than her, she could not use force when she lifted her hand to operate. So she said, "You lie on my leg and I will try, but it does not mean that I can really remove the steel nail."    

    

Gong Lingye followed her instructions and took off the shirt on his upper body first before lying on Soong Yiren's leg.    

    

The light here was not very good, but there was sunlight coming through the hole. Beams of different sizes came one after another.    

    

When Soong Yiren picked up the knife, her hand clearly trembled.    

    

She remembered that only a month ago, Chu Mingyao had used such a knife to cut open her skin.    

    

Soong Yiren clenched the knife tightly. Her joints were white and her hands were shaking violently.    

    

"Don't be afraid." Gong Lingye opened his mouth and his warm breath landed on Soong Yiren's legs. His voice was low and hoarse, but because he was weak, there was an inexplicable feeling of affection in his voice. "Just take it out. I will be fine."    

    

Soong Yiren tried her best to rid herself of the complicated emotions in her heart. She slashed hard and in an instant, blood oozed out and she could see the tail of the steel nail even more clearly.    

    

Separated by a thin layer of silk fabric on her thigh, Soong Yiren clearly felt Gong Lingye's pectoral muscles tighten and his entire body stiffen.    

    

But he did not say anything, and did not even make a muffled groan.    

    

Perhaps it was because she thought of herself at that time, Soong Yiren's voice unconsciously softened. There was actually a kind of gentleness in her voice. "I still need to cut open a hole, draw a cross, and then I can take it out. Hold on a little longer."    

    

Gong Lingye wanted to see her expression for some reason. However, he did not move in the end. He only responded. "Alright."    

    

Soong Yiren used the knife again. This time, her movements were more agile than before. When the blood spread out again, she quickly aimed at the tail of the nail. She used the forceps on the other side of Gong Lingye's knife to clamp the tail of the nail and pulled it out with force.    

    

Because of her exhaustion, the steel nail fell on the reef and made a clear sound.    

    

Soong Yiren clearly felt that Gong Lingye's taut muscles finally relaxed. She picked up the shirt Gong Lingye took off and used a knife to tear two strips of cloth.    

    

She quickly folded a piece of cloth into a small cube and pressed it on his wound. The other piece of cloth was longer and she planned to use it to bandage his wound.    

    

She held onto his shoulder: "Alright, I'll bandage you now."    

    

Gong Lingye struggled to get up. There was no blood on his thin lips, but because of the beautiful shape of his lips, he still looked beautiful. "Thank you."    

    

However, just as he finished speaking, he leaned on Soong Yiren's shoulder powerlessly.
