Gu Jianqiu was lying at their feet. Shen Yu didn’t dare to look at him any longer. He was crying with tears in his eyes and kept muttering, “Blood, so much blood.” He was trembling as Gu Yingyi held him tightly in his arms and walked downstairs.

　　Gu Yingyi’s leg was injured, and blood gushed out with every step he took. He gritted his teeth, endured the severe pain, and limped downstairs with his companions.

　　Just when they were halfway there, they heard a strange noise behind them. Gu Yingyi felt something was wrong. Turning back, he saw Gu Jianqiu staggering to his feet from the ground, and a card-shaped pendant fell out of his chest. It was that pendant that saved his life, so he had only fainted briefly.

　　Gu Jianqiu stood up holding the wall, raised the gun in his hand, and pointed the black muzzle directly at Shen Yu’s position.

　　”Die, all of you die!”

　　“Bang! Bang! Bang!!”

　　Three gunshots were heard, and Gu Jianqiu became blood-thirsty and fired three shots at Gu Yingyi.

　　Gu Yingyi immediately stood in front of Shen Yu, and then used his body to protect him as he rolled down the stairs.

　　The police also discovered that Gu Jianqiu was not shot dead, so the sniper aimed at his head this time. After a dull gunshot after being silenced, a bloody hole appeared on Gu Jianqiu’s forehead, and he rolled down the stairs with his eyes open.

　　This time, Gu Jianqiu was completely dead. His eyes were wide open and he stared in the direction of Gu Yingyi and the others. It was horrifying.

　　Two of the three shots that Gu Jianqiu fired just now missed the target and hit the oil tank with residual oil. The oil tank was pierced, and the temperature from the intense friction instantly ignited the oil. With a bang, a large flame quickly spread and burned all the flammable places, licking them wantonly.

　　But in just one minute, the temperature in the oil tank factory surrounded by flames rose sharply and choking smoke began to spread.

　　Gu Yingyi coughed twice, swallowed the bloody taste in his throat, and warm liquid flowed out of his chest in large streams.

　　He was shot.

　　He nervously checked Shen Yu in his arms. He was too frightened and a little confused. He could not respond except crying.

　　Gu Yingyi led his men away from the place where the oil body was about to extend with great difficulty. Excessive blood loss made his eyes go black, and his limbs became so heavy that it was extremely difficult to move a step.

　　At the same time, the police and rescue workers outside were trapped outside the oil tank factory. The outer perimeter was covered by a large circle of flames and they could not rush in directly.

　　The police notified the standby fire brigade to rush to put out the fire.

　　Liang Ruizhe was extremely anxious. He ignored the dissuasion, wet himself all over, covered himself with a wet towel and rushed in.

　　The temperature burned Liang Ruizhe’s skin as he searched for Shen Yu in a sea of ​​fire. The flames crackled and burned everything that could be burned. The smoke made Liang Ruizhe, who already had lung problems, cough violently.

　　He could hardly breathe.

　　Finally, Liang Ruizhe saw two people in the corner of a wall.

　　They were Gu Yingyi and Shen Yu.

　　Shen Yu was covered in blood and was shaking and unconscious.

　　Liang Ruizhe strode over, “Xiao Yu!”

　　When he got closer, he realized that the blood on Shen Yu was not his. It was all from the pale-faced Gu Yingyi. There was a large dark stain on the chest of his black suit.

　　Seeing Liang Ruizhe, Gu Yingyi pushed Shen Yu into his arms, “Take him away! Quickly!”

　　The oil tank not far away was burning with flames. This was no joke; it would explode.

　　This kind of fire cannot be put out in a short time. It is a blessing that Liang Ruizhe can take Shen Yu out.

　　”Bang!” An oil tank exploded, and the splashing oil intensified the fire.

　　Liang Ruizhe could see that he couldn’t hesitate any longer. Gu Yingyi had lost too much blood and was shot in the leg. He couldn’t stand up. He pushed Liang Ruizhe desperately and yelled, “Go!”

　　The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and oil tanks of all sizes began to explode with loud noises. Liang Ruizhe kept coughing. He hugged Shen Yu and protected him as they escaped from the oil tank factory with difficulty.

　　Shen Yu was taken away by Liang Ruizhe. He looked back with tearful eyes at Gu Yingyi who was surrounded by flames.

　　After they went out, Liang Ruizhe lay on the ground and coughed violently, feeling extremely painful as if he was going to cough out his lungs.

　　The fire truck was putting out the fire. Assistant Liu looked anxious. Gu Yingyi was still inside and had not come out.

　　”Quick! Hurry up and put out the fire! Mr. Gu is still inside!”

　　Shen Yu suffered injuries of varying degrees, and Liang Ruizhe was also feeling uncomfortable, as if his lungs could not breathe air. The doctor found them and quickly lifted them onto a stretcher and sent them to the hospital.

　　In the raging sea of ​​fire, Gu Yingyi was surrounded by flames. The high temperature burned his skin, and every inch of his skin seemed to be burned.

　　After Shen Yu was rescued, Gu Yingyi no longer had the strength to escape. He lay on the ground, bleeding from his wounds. Excessive blood loss made his vision blurred and his consciousness began to become confused.

　　He used the last of his strength to take out the only photo of him and Shen Yu from his arms with difficulty. Then he slowly placed the photo in front of himself, staring at Shen Yu’s bright smiling face in the photo reluctantly.

　　”Cough, cough, cough!” Gu Yingyi started coughing due to the strong and pungent smoke. With trembling hands, he brought the photo to his lips and pressed a kiss on it. Then he pressed the photo tightly against his heart. His increasingly heavy eyelids made him slowly close his eyes.

　　He seemed to be unable to feel the sea of ​​fire around him, and scenes of his time with Shen Yu flashed through his mind like a kaleidoscope.

　　Shen Yu used to love him dearly, and could hold whole heart in front of him, with eyes full of blazing love.

　　He was the one who lost such a good person like Shen Yu.

　　Gu Yingyi felt his life slowly slipping away. He never believed in gods, but at this moment he greedily prayed to God for mercy, allowing him to meet Shen Yu again in the next life. He would do everything he could to make up for it and repay him.

　　The next second, the ruthless darkness swallowed up Gu Yingyi’s gradually weakening consciousness.

　　…………

　　As time passed, City A entered midsummer. The sky was blue and cloudless, and the trees along the road were lush and green.

　　In the hospital’s intensive care unit.

　　A news story from several days ago was being reported on the TV screen in the ward.

　　”A month ago, a gunman injured someone in an abandoned oil tank factory in xx, which led to an explosion in the oil tank factory. Gu Jianqiu kidnapped Omega because of personal grudges…”

　　”Mr. Gu.” Assistant Liu pushed the door open, put down the fruit in his hand, and then turned off the TV.

　　Gu Yingyi sat in a wheelchair, staring out the window. He was wearing a hospital gown, with his exposed skin wrapped in a thick layer of gauze, including his right arm and right leg.

　　He continued looking out the window, as if he hadn’t noticed Assistant Liu’s arrival.

　　Assistant Liu sighed.

　　A month ago, Gu Yingyi was rescued from a sea of ​​fire. Although he survived, he suffered extensive burns all over his body. The bones in his right hand had not grown well to begin with, and the multiple injuries made it impossible for him to recover. Tremors will accompany his right hand for the rest of his life.

　　His right leg was also disabled after the bullet was removed, and the doctor’s diagnosis was that it all depended on his future recovery and luck.

　　Gu Yingyi seemed to finally come out of his trance. He turned his head to look at Assistant Liu and said to him, “How are they?”

　　Gu Yingyi refers to Liang Ruizhe and Shen Yu.

　　Shen Yu was fine except for being a little irritated and having minor burns.

　　Liang Ruizhe’s condition was a bit more serious. He was hospitalized for half a month. It was said that his lungs had problems due to the smoke. Gu Yingyi was enough for him to worry about. During the month that Gu Yingyi was in a coma, the burden of the company fell entirely on him, a small special assistant to the president. He had no energy to worry about anything else.

　　”Thank you for your hard work on the company’s affairs during this period.” Gu Yingyi said.

　　Assistant Liu was stunned, somewhat surprised by what Gu Yingyi said. This was the first time he told someone how hard they had worked.

　　I don’t know if it was Assistant Liu’s illusion, but he felt that Gu Yingyi looked different from before. He couldn’t tell exactly what the difference was, but it was a very obvious change in Gu Yingyi.

　　Gu Yingyi has been in a coma for a month, and today is the second day he woke up.

　　He thought that disfigurement and disability would be a blow to Gu Yingyi, but in fact, it was not. He acted very calmly, as calm as a pool of water without ripples.

　　Assistant Liu was still distracted when he heard Gu Yingyi continue to say calmly, “Go and help me draw up a contract.”

　　Gu Yingyi asked him to buy the island that he and Shen Yu had visited twice in the name of Shen Yu, and transferred all the properties and astronomical amounts of money under his name to Shen Yu’s name.

　　Although Assistant Liu was shocked, he was not too surprised, as if he had guessed that Gu Yingyi would do this. He also suddenly understood the purpose of Gu Yingyi’s actions and what had changed in his body.

　　Gu Yingyi really decided to let go.

　　Assistant Liu didn’t ask any more questions, just nodded quietly and left.

　　After the contract was drafted, Liang Ruizhe, who was making breakfast, received a message from Gu Yingyi.

　　Gu Yingyi asked him to meet and talk to him.

　　Liang Ruizhe did not reply immediately. He silently turned off his phone and put it upside down on the table. He was distracted while frying the eggs in the pan. He was awakened by the smell of burnt eggs. He quickly poured the burnt eggs into the trash can and fried another one.

　　After making breakfast, Liang Ruizhe went to the bathroom to wash his face. In the mirror, his complexion was getting worse and worse, revealing an unhealthy paleness. He deliberately avoided looking directly at himself in the mirror and took a towel to wipe his face hurriedly.

　　Then he put the towel into the sink and saw blood on it. He wiped his nose with his fingers, which were covered in blood. There was also warm liquid flowing down his nose, dripping into the sink, dyeing the water in the sink red.

　　Liang Ruizhe stared blankly at the blood on his hands until he heard Shen Yu’s footsteps in the living room. Then he quickly turned on the faucet to rinse off the blood on his face, hands, and the sink.

　　He fished out the blood-stained towel and hid it.

　　Shen Yu had just gotten up. Rubbing his eyes, he came out of his bedroom in his pajamas and headed for the bathroom. “Rui Zhe, good morning.”

　　”Good morning, Xiaoyu.” Liang Ruizhe came out of the bathroom with a normal look on his face.

　　Shen Yu came to have breakfast after washing up. I don’t know what he was thinking about. He stared absentmindedly at the fried eggs with ketchup on the plate. He held a piece of bread in his hand and took a bite of it, without saying a word.

　　Ever since that incident a month ago, Shen Yu would be distracted from time to time, and Liang Ruizhe had gotten used to it.

　　He was thinking about Gu Yingyi’s appointment with him, so he said to Shen Yu, “I have to go out this afternoon. You stay at home and I’ll bring you a small cake when I come back, okay?”

　　”Rui Zhe, is that person dead?” Shen Yu suddenly said.
