Pick Up a Killer as Girlfriend Chapter 1018 1018: As Long as There Is Life, There Is Hope

In that decisive battle, Xiaofan achieved a complete victory. But how did he and Leng Yue survive the explosion? And how did they end up on this godforsaken deserted island?

It all began on that night, with the final explosion.

That night, the storm was raging, and the waves on the sea were exceptionally high.

After defeating Muto, Xiaofan imdiately took Leng Yue to the shore and found the small boat.

As the explosions beca more frequent, when a particularly intense explosion sounded, it ant that the warhead had started to explode due to the increase in temperature.

At that ti, after getting on the small boat, Xiaofan and Leng Yue paddled desperately to get away.

However, Xiaofan was already severely injured, and after the exhausting fight with Muto, he had almost no strength left to row.

But relying on the last bit of will to survive, determined not to let the innocent Leng Yue die there with him, Xiaofan gritted his teeth and persisted.

The first explosion was a warning; in the next ten seconds, the most intense explosion would occur again.

By then, the entire vicinity of the island would be leveled, and those fleeing soldiers, generals, and assassins would find it hard to escape death. Xiaofan and Leng Yue included.

And in those re ten seconds, Xiaofan had to make a decision that would ultimately determine whether the two of them would live or die...

"Leng Yue."

"Yes?"

"Hold my hand. Don't let go."

"Okay, I won't let go, even if I die."

In these final monts, Leng Yue showed no fear, her eyes devoid of any trace of dread.

Tightly holding onto Xiaofan's hands, with him there, even death held no fear.

"Take a deep breath, count down three seconds, three, two, one... jump."

The churning sea threatened to capsize the small boat at any mont. Jumping into the sea amidst these turbulent waves was indeed seeking death.

Indeed, it was a mont of life and death, the final brink of survival or demise.

And within two seconds after jumping into the water.

'Boom.'

An enormous explosion imdiately echoed, and the powerful shockwave obliterated everything on the island, turning it into dust. The cargo ship still docked at the shore was shattered by the massive shockwave, killing everyone on board or not yet embarked.

Among the thousand people, only a dozen or so precariously survived.

And Xiaofan and Leng Yue? They successfully subrged in the water, using the water's resistance to avoid the powerful shockwave.

However, the churning sea caused Xiaofan and Leng Yue to lose their sense of direction temporarily.

The intense explosion raised a massive mushroom cloud at the center of the island. Due to the violent vibrations, the already raging sea beca even more unrestrained.

Xiaofan and Leng Yue were repeatedly swept into the undercurrent. The deep breath they had taken was quickly running out.

Particularly Leng Yue, who felt she couldn't hold on any longer.

Xiaofan... I'm so glad to have t you in this life. In the end, let go, if it's just you alone, maybe there's still a chance for survival.

Holding on, Xiaofan seed to sense Leng Yue's grip loosening slightly and instinctively tightened his grip once more.

Then, slowly, slowly pulled her closer. Leng Yue then felt a rope being placed into her hand.

Indeed, it was a rope, the one tied to the lifeboat.

If luck were on their side and the small boat was still intact, then it would be their last chance to survive.

The strongest explosion shockwave ca and went quickly.

Once it was over, returning to the sea surface, there should be no further danger.

With their last efforts, the two finally erged, their heads breaking the water surface, breathing in the fresh air.

They were indeed lucky; the small boat was intact. However, during that brief underwater ti, the boat had been pushed over three kiloters away from the island, showing how terrifying the undercurrent was.

But no matter what, they survived.

In the darkness, they groped their way back to the small boat.

The boat was half-filled with water, but it hadn't capsized, truly a stroke of incredible luck.

It seed it wasn't their ti to die. Finally, Xiaofan's hand touched the small boat. Just as he was about to pull Leng Yue onto the boat, Xiaofan's eyes suddenly contracted.

Leng Yue also sensed the danger a mont after Xiaofan.

In that instant, Xiaofan turned and tightly embraced Leng Yue.

'Bang.'

A muffled sound resounded. They were once more plunged into the seawater.

As it turned out, the previous explosion had flung a lot of debris into the air.

Solid rocks, broken steel, all falling from the sky.

By sheer bad luck, a piece was falling toward Leng Yue and Xiaofan.

In that mont, Xiaofan shielded Leng Yue with his body.

Once more subrged in the salty sea, Leng Yue was now greatly alard.

In that critical mont, she had clearly felt Xiaofan suffer a serious injury. But...

When Xiaofan awoke from the darkness again, he was already on the deserted island, and a week had passed.

What had happened in the end, and why had he and Leng Yue arrived on this island? Xiaofan had no clue.

Upon waking, all Xiaofan saw was darkness; he even thought he had gone blind.

Being alive ans hope, and having survived with Leng Yue, they still had a chance to turn back.

The severe injury on his shoulder had left Xiaofan unconscious for a week. That week must have been hardest on Leng Yue.

In this unfamiliar place, Leng Yue wasn't afraid, but Xiaofan's week-long coma, his uncertain fate, was what worried her the most. Fortunately, he eventually woke up.

"Thanks to you, otherwise, I would have surely been dead."

"What are you saying? If it weren't for you, I would have been crushed by that piece of iron long ago."

"That's because you brought to this island."

"I didn't bring you."

"Huh?"

"Don't you rember?"

"Rember what?" Xiaofan was mildly shocked. Did sothing occur during that ti that Xiaofan had forgotten? Or, like Zuimo, has part of his mory disappeared?

However, Xiaofan rembered every important person clearly.

"Back then, after being hit, you bore the pain to lift onto the boat, and when you finally climbed up, you lost consciousness. Did you forget?"

As it turns out, Xiaofan hadn't lost his mory. It was just that the actions that night were entirely instinctual. He only knew he couldn't fall unconscious until they were both safe. So, once they were on the boat and his nerves relaxed, he imdiately passed out.
