Stealing Your Heart Chapter 559
However, there was no water here. He looked around and only saw stones, dry leaves, and twigs.
She was running a temperature, so if they couldn’t leave soon… Su Zhan didn’t even dare think about the possible consequences.
He didn’t know when they would be saved. As Qin Ya was sick, he couldn’t afford to wait here and do nothing. Hence, he lay Qin Ya down carefully and went to look at the opening above the pit. The opening wasn’t straight, so he couldn’t see the sky. The only light source in the pit was from that one opening.
He stared at Qin Ya before muttering to himself, “You’ll make it out alive. I’ll make sure it happens.”
He wasn’t afraid of death, but Qin Ya couldn’t die.
Su Zhan took off his shirt and shoes. He wanted to climb up, so taking off his clothes would allow his skin to create more friction with the rocks and allow him to climb easily. He scanned the exit and estimated the distance before bending down to grab the rocks and climbed up.
But after carrying out his plan, he realized the gaps between the rocks weren’t the same. The further he went, the bigger the gaps were. His legs couldn’t stretch that far, even though he had tried his best.
He hadn’t eaten for over 24 hours, so he couldn’t hang on to the rocks and fell weakly. However, he never gave up. He kept trying, but he slipped every single time.
Qin Ya was in a daze when she saw someone trying to climb up the pit’s opening. That person would climb up and fall onto the ground again and again. She wanted to tell him to stop exhausting his energy, but she was too weak to say so.
When she was locked up, she didn’t eat anything lest her kidnapper fed her ecstasy or some other drug. Besides, she had caught a fever now, so she couldn’t summon any energy.
Su Zhan finally exhausted his energy after multiple tries. In the end, he could only look up dejectedly.
I can die, but what about Qin Ya?
She’s barely escaped death. To survive, she changed her looks and voice. Is she going to die here?
Something rolled down from the corner of his eyes. He didn’t know if it was his sweat or tears.
What should I do?
He turned to look at Qin Ya, whose eyes were half-closed. She couldn’t see Su Zhan clearly as her vision was blurred.
She saw the figure crawling toward her before brushing her fringe away. A voice sounded hoarse, “Actually, I’m not afraid of death. I think it’s great to die together with you. However, I don’t want you to die.”
Qin Ya stared at the man who was sobbing like a baby.
“I know you blame me for not telling you about my parents. But that wasn’t because I don’t trust or love you, it was because… Every time I think about them, they will haunt my dreams. But I’ve decided to tell you now. I’m afraid I won’t be having nightmares anymore and have another chance to confess my feelings to you.”
He wiped his face tiredly. “I’ve forgotten how old I was when it happened. Perhaps I deliberately forgot about the details and my past self.”
“My mom cheated on my dad. I saw her bringing her lover back and enter their bedroom. They were…”
Su Zhan had his head lowered, so Qin Ya couldn’t see his expression. She could only imagine how helpless and hateful he was feeling at that moment.
Perhaps he felt helpless because that person was his mom, and he hated her for being so shameless.
