Chapter 81 Either We Both Will Die Or We Both Will Survive
"TianTian." Mu Yuehan yelled and took a hold of Nian Tian's hand before she could fall to the ground. Her body was completely out of the cart, only the hand of Mu Yuehan was supporting her. Their cart was moving as well as her body because of the winds.
'Can you not be careful for once? He was saying 'it's dangerous but you did not listen to him.' She scolded herself.
Nian Tian looked down and gulped. Their cart was at the highest point of the Ferris wheel. She noticed how many stupid females like her had fallen from their carts and were injured.
The crowd had collected around the Ferris wheel. She could hear shouts of someone to call for an ambulance.
"Hold my hand with both hands." Mu Yuehan ordered. His heart was beating fast out of fear. He was thankful that he acted fast, otherwise, God knew what could have happened to her.
He was afraid, hell afraid, more afraid than her.
When he saw her slipping out from the cart, his heart came out of his chest. For the first time in his life, he felt so scared. He felt his life was going out of his hand.
He was all ready to fall out of the cart after her!
Nian Tian gripped his hand with her other hand. Cold sweat was there on her forehead. She felt scared.
Mu Yuehan had his feet stuck on the other side of the cart. Half of his body was out of the cart. He knew he could easily pull them both back in the cart. It was the wind which was making it slightly difficult for him. The cart was swinging, giving him a tough time.
Nian Tian looked at him with complete fear highlighting her features. "You sure, you can pull us back. If not...…."
"Stop thinking rubbish. I have taken military training. You get it. I can pull us both up inside." He started to lift her. With amazement, Nian Tian noticed his strength.
With ease, he pulled her up. Sweat was falling from his forehead. His heart was beating fast in scare. His stomach was in nervous knots.
Somewhere far, the person who had malfunctioned with the ferries wheel gritted his teeth. He looked at Nian Tian. He targeted his pistol at her and fired a bullet.
Nian Tian was half the way to the cart when the bullet was fired. Instead of Nian Tian, it landed on the upper bicep of Mu Yuehan. He groaned and his grip loosened on the hand of Nian Tian out of reflex action.
"Keep holding my hand." He gritted his teeth, feeling the pain of the bullet and slight dizziness. It did not take him time to realize that the bullet was coated.
The heart of Nian Tian stopped beating when she looked at the blood pouring out from his arm. She saw the pain on his face. His pain twisted her heart. Tears appeared in her eyes.
"You are hurt, Zhan Wei. You should leave me. You can't…."
"I said, keep holding my hand. Stop thinking or talking about rubbish. I am not letting you go. Either we both will survive it or we both
will die here. You get it."
Nian Tian felt tears in her eyes when she heard the determination in his voice. He was in pain, she knew. His shirt was covered in blood but he still was adamant to save her.
She must have done some good deeds in her past life to deserve a man like him.
Mu Yuehan gasped for breath and pulled her with full force. His forehead was covered with sweat, not because of the force which he was applying to pull her but the force he was using to fight whatever had entered his body with the bullet.
"Keep holding me tight." He again instructed. With a loud groan, he pulled her up inside, exploiting all his energy and muscle power, more than what he should use.
Nian Tian climbed inside. Mu Yuehan fell on his seat. He closed his eyes and gasped hard for breath. His heart was beating fast, extraordinarily. His breathing was fast. His eyes were dropping. He felt pain but in that pain, he was also happy that Nian Tian was safe. The bullet hit him instead of her.
Nian Tian looked at him with worry-filled eyes. She heard cheers and claps coming from the crowd which was glad that they were safe but she was careless about them.
She climbed on the lap of Mu Yuehan and looked at him with concern. "Zhan Wei, are you alright?"
Mu Yuehan nodded his head, feeling dizziness taking over his scenes. "I think, the bullet was coated."
She looked at his arm with concern. She quickly tore the lower part of her shirt and tied it around his bicep and then hugged him.
"I am sorry, I don't know how to remove a bullet." Her voice was raspy. It was full of guilt.
"Stupid." He chuckled slowly. "There is no instrument here. So even if you knew how to remove a bullet, you were not going to be able to remove it."
She then looked at his face and removed his sweat using her fingers. There were tears in her eyes, tears for him. "I am afraid, what if something happened to you?"
"Nothing will happen to me." He placed his forehead on hers. He gasped. "Now kiss me. Isn't this why we are here?"
Nian Tian nodded her head and kissed him hard. Her kiss was filled with tears. She was afraid, very afraid. She did not know what to do. She was feeling handicapped.
"That's the kiss." He mumbled and placed his head on her shoulder, falling limb.
"Zhan Wei." She yelled and shook his head. She felt his shallow breath on her neck. His heart rate was also less. It terrified her out of her guts. She was scared out of her wits, seeing his condition. His unconscious state was scaring her.
"God, please save him. How will I live without him? Don't snatch him from me."
