This time, Gou Wencai was not asked to choose between the Hou Mansion and him. If it was that simple, Li Tian didn't have to be afraid, because he knew that Gou Wencai would definitely choose him.

It was a choice to risk his life. Li Tian did not dare to think deeply about it, because if he were from Gou Wencai's perspective, he would have no reason to save him. He only had one life, and if it was gone, it would be gone.

Gou Wencai slowly turned to Li Tian and stared at him intently, but at this time his eyes were full of determination.

Li Tian was at a loss for a moment, he wanted to mourn

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

He begged Gou Wencai to choose to save him, but the words came to his lips but he couldn't speak. As soon as these words were spoken, it meant that Gou Wencai gave up on himself to save him, which he couldn't do.

He had thought about taking out the compass and giving it a try, but it would take time. The chief manager was keeping a close eye on them and would not give him this chance.

And just when he was confused and desperate, Gou Wencai in front of him moved his mouth slightly, as if he was saying something, without making any sound.

Li Tian's pupils shrank and he saw what he meant.

"Run! Run! Run!!!"

Looking at Gou Wencai with determination in his eyes, Li Tian finally knew what his final decision was.

In the end, Gou Wencai chose to leave the danger to himself and help him escape.

The chief manager outside the door looked indifferent, waiting for Gou Wencai's choice.

Li Tian clenched his fists tighter, as if it was difficult to take that step.

He is very afraid of death, very timid, and very cowardly, but because of this, it is even more difficult to face Gou Wencai's selflessness.

Feeling his hesitation, Gou Wen slowly raised his hand and put it on his chest, showing a gentle smile, as if to tell him not to worry.

Just this one action strengthened Li Tian's heart.

On Gou Wencai's chest is a small jade sword given to him by Hou Qing for free.

Li Tian raised his head and looked out the door, looking at the frosty-faced chief manager. At this time, he didn't seem so scared anymore.

Gou Wencai closed his eyes and took a deep breath, then revealed a more determined look.

"run!"

He shouted, turned around and rushed straight towards the Chief Supervisor outside the door. With such huge force, he forced the Chief Supervisor back a few steps, leaving a gap for Li Tian to escape.

Li Tiansui immediately took off his legs and ran towards the door, running past the two of them in one go.

He did not run towards the gate of the mansion, but ran straight towards the depths of the yard. He was going to call Hou Qingbai and Qing Miao'er. As long as he was fast enough, he could save Gou Wencai.

The chief manager was not surprised at all, nor did he mean to stop Li Tian. He looked down at Gou Wencai, who was hugging him tightly, with an inexplicable smile on his face.

"Wencai, it seems that you have made a choice, but this choice does not seem to be the right one."

Gou Wencai didn't care what he said, but stared at Li Tian who was running away and hugged him tighter.

"Run! Don't look back! Run!!!"

Li Tian turned around when he heard this and ran forward as hard as he could.

At this moment, he could no longer control his emotions and burst into tears. The tears blurred his vision for a moment, and he raised his hand to wipe them away. He ran with all his strength.

"If the master of the palace knew your performance at this moment, he would definitely be very disappointed in you."

The chief manager didn't seem to be in a hurry at all, and he had no intention of catching Li Tian back. Instead, he was calmly talking to Gou Wencai.

Gou Wencai didn't know whether he was deliberately so easy to let him down his guard or something, but the strength in his hands did not weaken at all. The chief manager was a practitioner. If he let go and Li Tian was captured, then everything he had done would be in vain.

All in vain.

But the next moment, something horrified him happened.

The chief manager effortlessly broke free from his restraints, grabbed his neck with one hand and picked him up.

Feeling the huge force coming from his neck, Gou Wencai realized how ridiculous what he had just done was. If the chief manager was not willing, it would be difficult to do it even if he was close to him. Is this a practitioner?

There is no resistance, just like a mayfly shaking a giant tree, not overestimating its own strength.

At this moment, he clearly felt that death was so close to him.

"You will die if you make this choice, Wencai, do you regret it?"

The chief manager looked at Gou Wencai struggling in his hands as if he were looking at a corpse, so cold and emotionless.

He wanted to see Gou Wencai struggle and regret before he died, and even beg for mercy, so that he could eliminate his hatred for not being the master of the palace!

Why does a young boy who has only been in the palace for two years become the master of the palace?

The moment Gou Wencai made his decision, he was doomed. He knew that the chief manager would not give him the chance to see Hou Qingbai.

"He...is my...brother, I...want him to live!"

He struggled, but his eyes were still so determined, even in the face of death he did not waver at all.

Although he was also scared, he was also afraid.

But if you ask him if he regrets it after this moment, his answer must be no!

If he chooses to abandon Li Tian today, he will definitely live with regret and guilt for the rest of his life, and he will not be able to explain to his father when he returns home.

It's just a pity that his dream of wealth and wealth did not lead to happiness for his father at home.
