Rebirth: Dark Princess

Seeing Soong Shiyan running on the deck with her thin and weak body, Huo Mingyang felt that she was as weak as a blade of grass in the wind. Inwardly, he couldn't bear to see her in such a state, so he stretched out his hand and grabbed onto Soong Shiyan. He looked at her and said firmly, "I'll help you!"    

    

Soong Shiyan pondered for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "Alright!"    

    

Although she hated Huo Mingyang, if it wasn't for him, she wouldn't have to suffer so much and Huo Mingshen wouldn't be in danger. However, she knew that now was not the time to be angry — she didn't know how to drive a yacht. If she had Huo Mingyang's help, then she would be able to accomplish twice the result with half the effort. Huo Mingshen would also have an extra chance of survival.    

    

Seeing that Soong Shiyan agreed, Huo Mingyang heaved a sigh of relief. A trace of a smile appeared on his face. He looked at Soong Shiyan and said, "I'll go alone."    

    

Soong Shiyan knew that Huo Mingyang was making amends for what he had done. Of course, she could choose not to forgive him. She did not reject his proposal. She nodded and said, "Mm, then you should hurry up."    

    

"I'm sorry —" Huo Mingyang didn't start the conversation and didn't look into Soong Shiyan's eyes. He said these three words to Soong Shiyan and then quickly ran towards the cockpit. "Actually, I hope you can live well too."    

    

"Huo Mingyang — —" Soong Shiyan looked at Huo Mingyang's back. For a moment, she was slightly surprised and couldn't help but shout, "If there is a next life, I hope that we can become friends and not be like this."    

    

Huo Mingyang's figure paused for a moment, but in an instant, he continued to rush forward. A vague sound of "Good" slowly faded away with the wind.    

    

… ….    

    

"What's going on?" Tiankui watched through the binoculars as Soong Shiyan and Huo Mingyang rode on the yacht like arrows and sped off, leaving Huo Mingshen floating on the sea. She couldn't help but frown, and a trace of doubt appeared on her face.    

    

When she looked at Huo Mingshen, she swam towards the yacht like a madman. Only then did she react and shouted angrily, "Damn it!"    

    

Saying that, Tiankui fiercely punched her thigh — this Rose who had been killing with a thousand knives and a thousand knives, actually put explosives on the yacht. Now it would seem that Soong Shiyan's chances of survival were extremely slim.    

    

Tiankui did not dare to continue thinking about it. A tinge of tears appeared in her eyes. She closed her eyes and silently prayed in her heart.    

    

… ….    

    

Soong Shiyan looked at Huo Mingshen on the surface of the sea. He was like a black dot in the distance. The giant rock in her heart had finally landed on the sea. Then, she turned around, looked at the cockpit, and silently said, "Huo Mingyang, thank you —"    

    

Bang – –. With a loud explosion, the yacht turned into a sea of flames. The dazzling flames seemed like they were about to dye the sky red. However, after an instant, a dense black smoke rose. Due to the leakage of gasoline and the scattering of combustible materials, the surface of the sea surrounding the boat also had a layer of colourful flames floating around it.    

    

Huo Mingshen looked at the blazing fire with a hint of despair. His face instantly lost all color and turned pale. He floated on the surface of the sea, unsure of how to react. Even though they were quite a distance away, he could feel the huge energy waves produced by the explosion. Now, how could Soong Shiyan still have a chance to live on the ship?    

    

Huo Mingshen was stunned on the surface of the sea for a long time. Then, two streams of clear tears poured from his empty and lifeless eyes into the corners of his mouth. However, he had the feeling that the tears on his face were vastly more salty than those on the sea, and that the bitterness in his heart vastly more limitless than that of the sea itself.    

    

"Soong Shiyan — —" Huo Mingshen let out a scream of despair as he looked at the ball of fire. But apart from the sea breeze and the sound of seagulls flapping their wings, he could not hear anything else. In this vast world, it seemed that he was the only one left.    

    

Huo Mingshen smiled miserably. Then, he slowly closed his eyes and sank down.    

    

Soong Shiyan, you once saved me from fire and water, but now, you left me alone, struggling and struggling within fire and water. But, you don't know, before I met you, the life in water and fire, to me, is only this much. But after you left, I went back to my life in the water. But now, this life is like hell, let me truly understand, what is "can not live, can not die."    

    

Once, looking at those who died in love, I scoffed at how weak they were. They would easily end their own lives for a single person. But now, I know that all of this is just because of the word "deep love". When I met you, I still became one of those "weak people" in my eyes …    

    

"Huo Mingshen, live well — — If you insist on dying, I will never forgive you. I will never meet you again, for all eternity!" Soong Shiyan's slightly angry voice sounded by his ear.    

    

Hearing Soong Shiyan's voice, Huo Mingshen suddenly opened his eyes. The salty sea water made his eyes extremely uncomfortable. In his dazed state, it was as if he had seen Soong Shiyan.    

    

She was floating in front of him, looking at him angrily. After a moment, she turned around resolutely and swam away, leaving Huo Mingshen with a blurry view of her back.    

    

Huo Mingshen was extremely anxious. He had difficulty opening his mouth, so he could only use all of his strength to chase after Soong Shiyan. She swam fast, like a nimble and beautiful mermaid. Huo Mingshen's hand couldn't even touch her hair, which was floating in the water like lush aquatic plants.    

    

Finally, Huo Mingshen broke through the water's restraints and floated to the surface. He wiped the water from his face with his hand, like a fish out of water, breathing hard in the dry earth.    

    

The sound of propellers came into his ears. The ten or so yachts were getting closer and closer to him. Even the air seemed to have become noisy. However, Huo Mingshen felt that in this huge world, he could no longer hear any other sounds. In this huge world, he was still the only person left.    

    

Shiyan, I will listen to you and live on. It's just that, without you, I won't be able to be happy in this lifetime.
