Chapter 416: Chapter 416: I Choose Xiaoqiao to Stay

"Click!" — It was a blank.

Gu Hangshen tossed the pistol to Blaine, not expecting him to actually hand the pistol to Huo Yandong.

He thought Huo Yandong would have his men gamble with him, but he hadn’t expected him to take matters into his own hands. Was he so confident that he would definitely win?

Next, Huo Yandong calmly fired at the back of his own left hand, another blank.

The pistol once again returned to Gu Hangshen’s hands.

"Brother, don’t compare anymore, they must have tampered with it, you can’t possibly win! Brother, please don’t worry about me!" Gu Xiaorou cried out from the side.

"Click!" — After glancing at Gu Xiaorou, Gu Hangshen had already pulled the trigger for the second time.

It was still a blank.

Gu Xiaorou’s heart was gripped by fear, and she subconsciously held Xiaoqiao’s hand tightly, seeking some sense of security. At this moment, she had long stopped caring about past issues and resentments. In fact, during her time in the United States, she had come to understand a lot of things.

It was Huo Yandong’s turn next.

Another blank.

That meant, there was only one chance left. If Gu Hangshen’s next shot was a blank, then he would win...

"Brother..." Gu Xiaorou choked up, turning her head away, but then she heard Xiaoqiao whisper in her ear, "You will be safe."

Gu Xiaorou looked up in shock and confusion, about to speak, when the sound of another blank shot rang out...

Gu Xiaorou immediately looked at Gu Hangshen with surprise.

"I won." Gu Hangshen spoke without expression.

Blaine was stunned, and Huo Yandong also showed a menacing expression.

However, Huo Yandong quickly hid his expression and looked at him with interest, "The lives of these women are now in your hands."

Gu Xiaorou looked at Gu Hangshen, and then at Xiaoqiao beside her, blind and battered, feeling her heart was about to leap out with tension... Whom would her brother choose?

At that moment, Gu Hangshen’s gaze swept over Gu Xiaorou, then fixated entirely on Xiaoqiao...

Xiao Rou’s expression was visibly anxious, while Xiaoqiao... was like dead water, as if she had already foreseen the outcome, so she did not even bother to hold any hope while waiting for her demise.

The look of having no hope in her at all made Gu Hangshen feel as if his heart was being gripped and torn apart by a sharp claw, the pain nearly numbing...

Gu Hangshen’s face was pale and ashen, and after a long while, he made his choice in a low voice—

"I choose... to keep Xiaoqiao..."

Xiaoqiao slightly curved the corners of her mouth.

It took a moment for Gu Xiaorou to understand, it was Xiaoqiao who would stay, she was the one being let go.

In other words, her brother had chosen her...

Gu Xiaorou felt a whirlwind of emotions, and although it was a reprieve from death, she felt no joy or relief, instead a heavy weight settled upon her...

"Let her go." Huo Yandong spoke sharply, looking at Xiaoqiao with a mixture of regret and sympathy. He could see that Gu Hangshen still had feelings for her, but what did it matter? Hadn’t he chosen to save his own sister and let her die?

Upon the command, Blaine immediately took Gu Xiaorou away.

"You may verify her safety with the people outside." Huo Yandong surprisingly kept his word.

Gu Hangshen seemed not to have heard, just staring blankly at Xiaoqiao...

"Xiaoqiao..." Gu Xiaorou clutched Xiaoqiao’s hand tightly, struggling until they were forcibly separated.

Why, looking at her unfocused eyes and vacant face, did his heart feel such piercing pain at this moment...
