<h4>Chapter 493 – Last words!</h4>
One thousand meters in the air.
All the passengers onboard the flight are panicking and depressed.
The emergency exit doors cannot be opened. Everyone can only pray for the ne to make the emergencynding safely.
Dong Xuebing took out his phone onboard the shaking ne. He wants to hear his family’s voices before his death.
The mobile phone’s signal only has two bars, and he can make calls. It is not allowed to make phone calls onboard the ne because the signal interference will affect the ne’s control. But the ne is about to crash, and Dong Xuebing doesn’t care. He called his mother’s number.
Ring... ring... ring...
The line got through. “Hello... Bing... you... back”
Luan Xiaoping’s voice is breaking up as the signal is not good.
Dong Xuebing choked with sobs when he heard his mother’s voice. “Mum...”
“Why is your background so noisy?” Luan Xiaoping asked curiously. “Where... you? What... the noise....”
“Oh, I’m in a club. It’s quite noisy here. Haha...”
“Why are you at those ces? Don’t wander around in Japan ande back early. Call... before you are back. I will help you tidy your ce.”
Dong Xuebing felt his heartache. He has lots to tell his Mum but doesn’t know how to start.
“Xiao Bing, did you hear me?”
“Thank you, Mum.”
“Why are you saying this?”
“Nothing... I just want to thank you.” Dong Xuebing started to tear, and he wiped the corner of his eyes. It’s been years since he cried. “... Mum, Old Yang is a good man... I wish you all the best with him.”
Luan Xiaoping raised her voice. “Why are you talking about this suddenly? What happened? Xiao Bing, where are you?! Don’t try to lie to me. Tell me what is going on?”
“Haha... nothing.”
“You are making me nervous. What happened?”
Dong Xuebing looks at the raging sea from the window and the crying passengers around him. He forced a smile. “I am really fine. Mum... you must take care of yourself!”
“Xiao Bing! You...”
Dong Xuebing hangs up.
1,000 meters....
900 meters....
800 meters....
The out-of-controlled ne is gliding towards that patch of coral reef ind!
The ne should touch the waters in around one minute!
Dong Xuebing looked at his phone and hesitated for a few seconds before calling Qu Yunxuan’s number. Then, ring... the line got through.
As the ne is nearer tond, the signal is much better.
“Hello? Why are you calling me? I thought you are on board the ne?” Qu Yunxuan is puzzled. “Did you miss your flight again?”
“...Yes.”
“Eh? Why is your background so noisy?”
“... Yes.”
“Say something! Why are you keeping quiet?”
Dong Xuebing’s throat is dry. He wants to tell Aunt Xuan how much he loves her and their child, and he might not being back. But he couldn’t say those words out. He took a deep breath and used a serious tone. “Aunt Xuan, we are not suitable for each other. You... you should abort our baby, and let’s not meet again. Find a better man and get married.”
Qu Yunxuan’s face changed. “What are you talking about?!”
“I am not joking with you.”
“Abort our baby? Are you serious?! Try saying that to me again!”
“Just take care of yourself in the future.”
“What happened? Do you know what you are saying?” Qu Yunxuan doesn’t understand why Xiao Bing changed suddenly. He was fine during their phone call an hour ago.
“Give me the phone!” Xie Hun coldly said. “What is wrong with you!?”
Dong Xuebing gritted his teeth. “Switch the phone to handsfree mode. I have something to tell you two.” He paused for a second and continued. “I have straightened out my thoughts. I am from a different world from the both of you, and we can never live together. Also... I don’t have any feelings for you two, and everything I said is all lies. I also find you two irritating and don’t want to see you all again!”
500 meters....
400 meters....
There’s no more time!
Xie Hun frowned. “Are you drunk?”
“I am very sober, and I am saying this from the bottom of my heart. So from now onwards, we will go separate ways and stop contacting each other.”
Xie Hun paused for a second. “... what reply are you expecting from us?”
Dong Xuebing closed his eyes. “Just agree to my request.”
“... alright.”
The ne is shaking more violently, and Dong Xuebing had to hold on to the seat in front of him. “Sister Xie, promise me that you will find a better person to get married with.”
“... ok.”
“Ask Aunt Xuan to agree too!”
Qu Yunxuan shouted. “What is happening?”
Dong Xuebing shouted. “Just promise me! Hurry!”
“Fine! I will find someone to get married tomorrow!”
Dong Xuebing has no more worries on his mind.
Suddenly, Xie Hun coldly said. “I agreed to your request, but you should also promise me one thing. No matter what happens, you muste back alive!”
“What are you saying? I am fine.”
“Idiot! Do you think I cannot tell something is wrong with your flight from your noisy background?!”
Dong Xuebing did not reply.
“I know you are capable, and even bullets,ndslides, etc., cannot kill you! Promise you! You must return safely! Can you hear me?! I want you toe back and stand in front of me!”
300 meters....
250 meters....
“Sorry....”
“Promise me!”
“... sorry.”
“I want you to promise me!”
Dong Xuebing slowly replied. “... I promise.”
Du... du... du... the line is cut.
Return? How am I going to return in this situation? The ne is very near to the deserted ind, and the current angle of the ne’s nose made it impossible for them to make a safe emergencynding. Unless there is a miracle, no one will survive this crash!
200 meters!
100 meters!
50 meters!
“Arghhhh!”
The ne shook, and loud shrieks and screams filled the cabins!
Dong Xuebing was thrown around in his seat and quickly tighten his seatbelt and hold on to the oxygen mask. Xie Hun’s voice is still ringing in his ears, and she rekindled his desire to survive!
F**k!
Since I will die anyway, I will fight it to the end!
Dong Xuebing opened his eyes and looked out of the window. He clenched his fist and is prepared to use all his strength to stay alive!
