I'm competing with the male lead for a woman (GL) - Chapter 10

The man in black lay on the ground, his body constantly retreating, but to no avail.

After saying this, Chu Shao looked at the man in black gently, and the next moment, she lightly reached out and grasped his neck.

The man in black’s face showed fear of death, but this expression was destined to exist only for a fleeting moment.

Initially, Chu Shao actually wanted to repay these men in black.

However, because she really hated contact with others, she drew her sword extremely quickly, with every move fatal, leaving the assassins no chance to react.

Although she felt a little regretful in her heart, Chu Shao still took advantage of the other person’s sobbing to apply a little force to her wrist, tightening her grip on his neck, giving him the final gift.

The throat bone shattered, and the man in black’s head tilted, lifeless.

Xiao Jin didn’t even have time to say “leave a live one,” and in the blink of an eye, all the men in black were dealt with by Chu Shao, leaving corpses scattered everywhere.

Watching Chu Shao get up, Xiao Jin decisively chose to shut up and remain silent.

Because she had a feeling that Chu Shao at this moment was very dangerous, even more dangerous than the assassins lurking in the dark.

Facts proved that Xiao Jin’s intuition was always accurate.

The tip of the sword slid across the ground, dripping bl00d.

Chu Shao raised her hand, looking at the crimson stains on the back of her hand, frowned slightly, suddenly feeling a little bored.

Just now, her heart was beating very fast, as if reminding her that she still existed in the world, a living person.

It had to be said that Chu Shao hated this constant reminder.

The pleasure of the blade cutting into flesh lasted only for a very short moment, followed by a long period of boredom.

Her heartbeat gradually slowed down.

Chu Shao was used to this numbness.

But fortunately, she currently had a new pastime, so she wouldn’t be too bored.

But when Chu Shao raised her head with a smile and met Xiao Jin’s gaze, the smile on her lips gradually faded.

Because Xiao Jin’s pupils not only reflected her figure, but also hid a forced calmness.

Chu Shao could tell at a glance whether others were afraid of her.

So at this moment, she was very sure that Xiao Jin was afraid.

Chu Shao was puzzled. After all, yesterday in the bridal chamber, Xiao Jin had said that they were allies, accomplices whose fates were intertwined.

But after only one day, Xiao Jin was afraid of her, which was really not being trustworthy.

Chu Shao didn’t like people who broke their promises.

Realizing that Xiao Jin was also hypocritical in essence, Chu Shao couldn’t help but feel a little lonely. But soon, she became happy again.

Because she decided to put an end to all this.

Xiao Jin watched Chu Shao raise the bl00d-stained sword and slowly walk towards her.

The other person’s steps were very light, and the smile on her face was very gentle. If she ignored the bl00d-dripping sword, she probably wouldn’t be so nervous that she forgot to blink.

“Warning! The host’s probability of death is detected to be 80%. Please take timely countermeasures…”

Xiao Jin’s brain went blank, and her heartbeat was abnormally fast.

In such a quiet environment, Xiao Jin knew that Chu Shao could hear her heartbeat. She only hated that her heart, this traitor, betrayed her at the wrong time.

All she could see was Chu Shao’s smile and the beauty mark under the corner of her eye.

“Too fast.”

Chu Shao squatted down and said to Xiao Jin with a smile.

Then she reached out her bl00d-stained hand, gently stroked Xiao Jin’s neck, and said solemnly, “Your heart is beating too fast.”

Xiao Jin didn’t speak.

Chu Shao’s eyes were innocent and gentle, as if she was humbly asking for advice, “Your Highness, I’m really curious, what are you thinking at this moment? In fact, if you have any questions, you can tell me, and I will try my best to answer.”

While speaking, she raised her fingers and stroked Xiao Jin’s skin, her movements very gentle, as if touching a fragile treasure.

But a little heavier, a little closer, and Chu Shao could accurately find the light blue bl00d vessels on Xiao Jin’s neck.

Under the pressure of being choked, Xiao Jin’s brain raced, forcing herself to calm down.

Finally, looking at Chu Shao, she was able to slowly ask a question.

“Does it hurt?”

Hearing this question, Chu Shao’s action of choking Xiao Jin’s neck paused slightly.

Because she had never been asked such a question.

It was also until Xiao Jin asked this question that Chu Shao realized that during the fight just now, her arm had been accidentally cut by a blade, leaving a bloodstain.

The wound wasn’t deep, just oozing bl00d, soaking her white robe.

Because she was too happy just now, Chu Shao was focused on pursuing the speed of her sword, and didn’t even bother to defend or block.

After she sheathed her sword, the joy in her heart hadn’t dissipated, so Chu Shao didn’t notice the stinging pain from the wound.

Moreover, such slight pain was difficult for her to notice.

Xiao Jin saw Chu Shao lower her eyelashes, not saying a word, her bl00d-stained hand still on her neck.

To be honest, her heart was in her throat.

Xiao Jin was able to come up with such a question in the nick of time, purely a limit operation. Whether this blind operation would work could only be said to be up to fate.

Chu Shao raised her head, looked into Xiao Jin’s eyes, and met her gaze.

Xiao Jin looked calm on the surface, but her back was already covered in cold sweat.

After a long while, Chu Shao smiled and responded softly to Xiao Jin’s previous question, “Maybe it does hurt a little.”

“…”

This casual tone, no matter how she listened, seemed insincere.

Xiao Jin didn’t believe Chu Shao’s words at all, but saw her smiling slightly, her beautiful eyes also curved.

Under the dual stimulation of the desire to survive and beauty, Xiao Jin pretended to nod calmly, keeping her mind clear, and took out the handkerchief she carried with her.

Although Chu Shao’s gaze had become slightly normal, the hand choking her neck showed no sign of letting go.

Xiao Jin decided to take the initiative, so she reached out and gently grasped Chu Shao’s wrist.

Taking advantage of Chu Shao’s daze, she took the other person’s hand, pinched the handkerchief, and wiped the bl00d on her knuckles little by little.

The texture of the silk handkerchief was very soft, and soon it wiped away the crimson stains on Chu Shao’s fingers.

During this time, Chu Shao looked at Xiao Jin’s face with a smile, trying to see fear in the other person’s expression.

But apart from the tightly pursed lips and the slightly lowered eyes, she could hardly find any signs of fear.

Even when she stared at the other person, Xiao Jin’s movements were still steady and meticulous, seemingly not caring about her scrutiny.

A pure white handkerchief was quickly soaked in bl00d, and the air was filled with a heavy bloody smell.

Xiao Jin frowned slightly and coughed twice.

The hand holding the bl00d-stained handkerchief showed no change in expression.

In fact, Xiao Jin was dizzy and couldn’t tell whether the bl00d on her hand was hers or Chu Shao’s.

She only knew that this was probably the bravest she had ever been in her life.

At the same time, she sincerely prayed that she wouldn’t have a second chance to be so brave.

It was very exciting, so exciting that she was almost scared to death.

Until she had wiped all ten of Chu Shao’s fingers, Xiao Jin looked at the other person’s clean fingers and slowly put down her hand.

Then she raised her head and met Chu Shao’s gaze.

Xiao Jin tried her best to suppress the trembling in her voice, pretending to be calm and said to Chu Shao, “Give the sword to me.”
