Tangled Up In Blue novel Chapter 119

The sound of two bullets loading was very clear. The sound that should only be heard on TV was appeared beside her ears. From the corner of her eyes, Poppi saw that the action of Mr. Wei with the gun was handsome, neat and ruthless.

Not long after she was released from the claw of Catherine, she immediately fell into a greater crisis. She didn't know what to do! 'Why can I be such bad luck? This time it's so dangerous, how can I escape it!'

"Poppi, you really keep calm even in the face of danger!" Mr. Wei said in an arrogant tone, "very few people can make me show a gun, but I think it's worth it today!"

"I'm just scared silly." Poppi said with self-mockery, holding a hairpin in her hand, and her palms were slightly sweaty. Her mouth was dry and her tongue was in pain. Her whole body froze and leaving only her mouth open and closed. She asked, "do you want to kill me? Why? Did I pinch your waist when we went to the flower show before, and you want to take revenge? "

"Haha..." "Well, I almost forget that we had traveled together before. Well, that's it. The friendship is still there. I will give the gun to you. How about you killing yourself? "

"I won't shoot." Poppi's face was a little pale.

"Pull the trigger gently. The bullets are ready. With a sound of "clap", you are killed. Don't worry. You can't even feel the pain. " Mr. Wei sat beside Poppi casually and took a grape from the table. After chewing a few pieces, he spat, "it's so sour! What the hell are you talking about? "

"Why should I shoot? I don't want to die. " Poppi frowned slightly. What a joke! She was not crazy, and she was not stupid. She shot herself to death. Was she crazy? She didn't want to die yet!

"You are a small one in this world and if you are dead, it is will not going to stop. You are dispensable!" With a gun in his hand, he gripped it casually, as if he was holding a toy. "So just kill yourself as soon as possible. No one will care about you."

"Since I'm so dispensable, why do you still want to kill me? Just leave me alone! "

"Why don't you listen to me?" "So what?" "Do you still want to wait for Malcolm to save you? If he comes, we can't be friends anymore. Do you know why I am here today? Because I was drinking with Hugh! It's just opposite this room. "

'Hugh Su?'? Poppi frowned with a trace of guilt flashing through her eyes, but at the same time, she selfishly thought, 'if only Mr. Su could come and save me...'

"Don't think about Hugh coming to save you. He was already drunk, lying on the sofa, unconscious." He seemed to have guessed what was on her mind, and said, "you are putting yourself between Malcolm and Hugh, making them turn against each other. You really shouldn't do that! They have such a good relationship. I really don't want to see them fighting so fiercely for a woman. So killing you is the best solution. "

It turned out to be the reason!

Poppi finally understood what his meant. She giggled and said, "if you kill me, you will also cause disagreement between them."

"You don't have to stall for time,"

Bang! Before he could finish his sentence, the door was kicked open from the outside again. Bang! The door made a terrible noise and attracted everyone's attention in an instant. Poppi unconsciously looked at the door. By the luxurious light in the corridor, she saw the man standing in the shadow with his back to the light. He was like a God. And then her heart fell heavily back to her stomach.

"Look. Speak of the devil and he comes." Taking the gun off from Poppi's temple, Mr. Wei stared at the man and said leisurely, "it's too late. Hi, are you here for a drink? Mr. Malcolm?"

It's Malcolm! It is really him! A warm current flew through Poppi's heart.

Malcolm looked serious and pressed his lips tightly. With a cold atmosphere around him, he strode towards Poppi. The distance was only a few meters, as if he had walked it through in two steps. Coming to Poppi's side, seeing her in such a mess, Malcolm's heart skipped a beat. He furrowed his brows and looked at her worriedly. He touched Poppi's face and asked, "how did it happen?"

With red eyes, Poppi shook her head and said firmly, "I'm fine." As soon as she opened her mouth, she found that her voice was so hoarse and harsh.

"Let me take you home." Then he leaned over and held her up.

"Malcolm. You fucking didn't see me? Why didn't you say hello to me? " Raising his head, Mr. Wei said like a punk.

"I will get even with you some other day! You should be glad that she's fine! " Malcolm growled in a low voice. He narrowed his eyes, turned around coldly and left with Poppi in his arms.

The door was closed again. Looking somewhere, Barry's eyes were very complicated.

Malcolm walked in a hurry, holding poppi tightly in his arms. His body shivered slightly. Sean took a piece of clothes and covered it over Poppi, and Malcolm wrapped it up for her. When he looked at her, regret and heartache filled his eyes.

"I'm fine… I thought you were kidnapped! It turns out she wants to give me a hard time. " "It's just a bluff from Mr. Wei. I'm fine," she said, pretending to be relaxed

Malcolm closed his lips tightly and said nothing.

"Why don't you answer me? How about putting me down? Someone is looking at us! " "I've encountered a lot of things like this before, and the processes are all the same. It's my fault that I was not prepared and I made you worried," Poppi smiled awkwardly.

With his lips slightly lifted, Malcolm said in a low voice, "I'm sorry."

The music in the hall was deafening, but Poppi finally understood it. Her eyes were slightly red and her expression was complex, but she didn't say anything.

On the way, Sean steadily drove the car, while Malcolm held and took Poppi in the back seat. Both of them were silent.

"Here we are, Mr. Malcolm."

After they returned to Imperial Tang Yard, Sean parked the car, and then Malcolm carried Poppi upstairs.

"Take a shower first." Malcolm held Poppi to the bathroom, which was full of hot smog because of the steam.

In an instant, Poppi was covered by warm. She became relaxed from head to foot and laughed: "this is so good. Who put the hot water?"

"Use my phone to remote control." Said Malcolm, expressionless. His cellphone and the electrical appliances in his apartment were connected automatically. On the way back home, he had already done the artificial intelligence to prepare the hot water.

"Great!" "My cell phone was broken again..." Poppi said in a voice full of envy and grievance…

"Don't worry. Our cellphone is pretty good. If it's broken, we can get a new one. We can change it as many as we want." Malcolm leaned over and kissed the face of Poppi. Her lips trembled when he kissed her because of the swelled face. He calmed down and began to gently unbutton the clothes of Poppi.

Poppi blushed and hurriedly reached out her hand to stop him, "you… What are you doing? "

Malcolm's eyes were fixed on the hand of Poppi. The back of her hand was red and there was bloodstain on the place where she was stepped on. It looked horrible and terrible. A hint of cruelty appeared in his eyes. When he raised his head, his heart became gentle again. "Your hand is injured. I will help you unbutton it, baby."

There was nothing dirty in his eyes. Poppi released her hand and smiled. But her face felt a flame of pain. She quickly reached out to stop him. Being annoyed and embarrassed, she blushed and said anxiously, "Malcolm, my face is swollen. I… Don't I look terrible now? "

"You still look very beautiful." Malcolm didn't seem to care about it at all. He helped to cover her and put her into the bathtub gently. "How's the water temperature?"

"Of course." Poppi smiled gently.

"That's good."

Poppi pursed her lips and said: "Malcolm, you are always silent. But today you are too silent. Say something! "

"What should I say?" Malcolm didn't look up. He just lifted the water, little by little, and gently wiped the body of Poppi.

"What would you like to eat tonight?" Poppi said and blinked her eyes.

"Don't change the subject. Did you get scared today?" Malcolm moved his hand to her face and gently wiped the swelling off it with warm water.

Poppi shook her head.

"It's all my fault." "I underestimated her. I'm sorry," he apologized, his voice full of fury.

Hearing this, Poppi was shocked and realized that Malcolm already knew it. Then she shook her head again and said, "she just wants to make trouble for me. It's okay." Catherine was the daughter of the mayor, and her status was very annoying. In the position of Poppi, she had not the ability to set herself against Catherine. As for Malcolm, no matter he had the ability or not… He shouldn't have objected to the 'government officials'.

"Since when have you been so ungrateful? It's weird. " Malcolm opened his mouth with a smile, but the look in his eyes was very intense. "She provoked you today. I have to settle it with her." If he was not afraid that there would be wounds on her body and if he was not afraid that she would be scared, today… If he did, he would definitely take Catherine back and shoot at Barry.

Barry Wei, he deserved it!

"How are you going to settle accounts with her?" Poppi got nervous and said, "she is..."

"Do you think I will let others bully you? I don't want you to feel wronged around me. " Malcolm clenched his teeth, and the blue veins on his temples jumped up and down. "Poppi, I can't wait any more. I'll make it public tomorrow, and I'll let everyone know that you're my wife." With this identity, at least it could ensure that she would not be disturbed by the rumors, and that she would not be threatened by these people again.

However, Poppi's eyes dodged for a moment and asked, "so soon? I'm not ready yet. Why don't we wait? When I become stronger, I can match you... "

"Poppi!" Malcolm shouted hastily. He was angry and distressed at the same time. He kissed Poppi without giving her any chance to say anything, preventing her from saying more.
