Chapter 552: Chapter 552: Burning Everything
Seeing Lin Zhiyi kneeling, Wen Qing seed to see Liu He.
Wen Qing is a proud woman.
From childhood to adulthood, she has never lost in her struggle among the n of the Wen Family.
Only with Liu He did she lose the person she wanted.
So the more humble Lin Zhiyi is, the more satisfied she feels.
Wen Qing lifted her head arrogantly: “If your mother were as discerning as you, perhaps I wouldn’t be targeting you like this. I’ll give you one minute.”
“Okay.”
Lin Zhiyi hurriedly got up and accidentally bumped into the door fra.
Her embarrassed appearance made Wen Qing laugh coldly and put down the gun.
Lin Zhiyi rushed in front of Gong Chen.
Seeing the injuries on his wrist and body, she felt helpless and only felt her eyes sting.
“Does it hurt?” she choked.
“Worried about ?”
Gong Chen cupped her face, kissing her forehead, then her brow, and her nose tip.
Finally stopping.
He lowered his eyes: “The rest will be collected with interest next ti.”
After speaking, he hugged her tightly.
Lin Zhiyi embraced him as well: “I promised I would save you, and I would never let you die.”
The words had just fallen.
Wen Qing impatiently said, “Lin Zhiyi, ti’s up, it’s ti to hit the road, soone will handle your body shortly.”
“Don’t worry, in a few days, you can et again.”
Lin Zhiyi released Gong Chen, turned, and walked toward Wen Qing, stopping before her.
The next second, she looked behind Wen Qing in horror.
“Ye, Ye Feifei!”
“Lin Zhiyi, this trick doesn’t work on … ah!”
Before Wen Qing finished her words, her arm was cut open, blood gushing out, hurting so badly she dropped the gun.
Lin Zhiyi stepped on the gun and kicked it back, crouching down with her ears covered.
Bang—
A bullet pierced through Wen Qing’s shoulder, before she knew it, she fell to the ground.
Wen Qing looked at Lin Zhiyi in disbelief: “You, you…”
Lin Zhiyi revealed a thin and sharp knife in her palm: “A lifesaving knife.”
Seeing this, Wen Qing spat blood from her mouth.
“Heh… You’re as cunning as your mother.”
“Wrong, my uncle was with my mom because she wasn’t cunning, isn’t President Wen more clear on the reason?”
As the words ended.
Lin Zhiyi slled sothing burning.
Looking up, smoke was already thick at the staircase, with flas quickly licking the wooden steps.
“It’s on fire!”
As she spoke, two gunshots rang out behind her.
Gong Chen shot through the chains, freeing himself, his body swaying a bit.
Lin Zhiyi quickly moved forward to support him: “Third Young Master, the stairs have caught fire.”
As she spoke, smoke had already spread over.
Gong Chen covered Lin Zhiyi’s nose and mouth: “Go to the west side bathroom.”
Lin Zhiyi nodded.
Gong Chen pressed her body down and rushed into the west side bathroom.
Lin Zhiyi grabbed a towel and wet it, covering both her and Gong Chen’s mouth and nose.
Gong Chen gestured toward the window.
“Soone will et you.”
“…”
et?
Not understanding yet, Gong Chen struggled to push open the window.
“Hurry.”
Seeing the fire chasing behind her, Lin Zhiyi thought of the burning pain in her past life.
To avoid being a burden, she quickly climbed the window.
Unexpectedly, Wen Qing actually chased over.
Like a madman, she pushed aside the injured Gong Chen and directly choked Lin Zhiyi’s neck.
“Let go first! Let go! I haven’t lost yet!”
The narrow windowsill, Lin Zhiyi gripping the window fra to stabilize her body, but without a third hand to block Wen Qing.
At this mont, the fire had reached the corridor outside the bathroom.
The scorching heat wave rushed in.
Staying even one more second felt like the skin was about to burn.
Plus the suffocating feeling on her neck, Lin Zhiyi’s hand gradually lost strength.
Suddenly, Gong Chen rushed over, pulling Wen Qing away and pushed Lin Zhiyi downstairs.
“No…”
While falling out the window, Lin Zhiyi saw fire spreading.
Lin Zhiyi landed on a cushion, overhead the fire burst outwards from the window.
“Ah!”
Wen Qing scread constantly.
Lin Zhiyi imdiately got up, wanting to rush into the fire to save Gong Chen.
But her body was pulled back a few steps by Chen Jin, who appeared from nowhere.
Then the sound of an explosion rang out.
Bang—bang—
Glass shattered, flas seed to engulf everything around.
Lin Zhiyi looked at the charred window, her mind went blank, she collapsed onto the grass.
“Gong Chen…”
“You lied to ! You promised everything would be okay!”
She bowed her head, gripped the grass tightly with both hands, tears continuously stread down, falling onto her hands, impossible to control.
Did Gong Chen in the previous life feel the sa way watching her burned to death by flas?
No matter if it’s him before or her now.
They’re always just a little short.
Suddenly, a hot wind blew.
Lin Zhiyi felt like the ground was vibrating, she slowly looked up.
In the light of fire, a man rode an Arabian black horse coming toward her.
The black horse’s glossy skin emitted a unique shine in the firelight, making the man’s black hair fly, wild and cold.
He tugged the reins, slightly tilted, and pulled the stunned Lin Zhiyi onto the horse.
Until the man tugged the reins, the horse neighed.
Lin Zhiyi was barely returning to her senses, she turned to look at the man.
It was Gong Chen.
She montarily couldn’t tell if she was dreaming, hesitated to raise her hand.
Suddenly, Gong Chen encircled her waist, pulling her tightly into his embrace.
Wrapping both her hands.
“Zhiyi, I said I promise.”
Upon rembering the familiar words, Lin Zhiyi choked up.
She turned to him: “You’re really okay?”
Gong Chen rested on her shoulder, his breath steady and warm: “Hmm. The horse was downstairs waiting for .”
Lin Zhiyi paused, looking down at the horse.
Gong Chen pulled her hand to pat the horse: “I raised it, naturally listens to .”
Lin Zhiyi stared blankly for a few seconds.
The lifesaving knife was with him, the horse listened to him, why did he willingly get trapped here?
Gong Chen noticed her confusion, looked up at the burning house.
“Soon you’ll know, so things must have closure.”
Just like this house, burning what little feelings his parents had.
And the hidden filth inside.
Lin Zhiyi was about to ask more, her shoulder leaned.
Beside her ear ca the man’s low voice.
“Zhiyi, I’m tired.”
“But, but I can’t ride a horse, plus it’s your horse.” Lin Zhiyi panicked.
“It’ll listen to you.”
Gong Chen hugged her tightly and closed his eyes.
Lin Zhiyi tried to move, the horse unexpectedly walked back.
Amidst the fire, the ranch in chaos, under Chen Jin and Zhou Zhao’s cover they swiftly left.
…
The fire burned until night, even reached the trending searches.
Shockingly, despite the fire, Wen Qing survived.
Reportedly, she hid in the bathtub during the final explosion.
But more surprisingly to Lin Zhiyi was the report saying a male adult corpse was found at the scene.
All evidence pointed towards Gong Chen.
When discussions were heated online, soone released information claiming it was Wen Qing who engineered Gong Chen’s car accident.
And then secretly detained Gong Chen for so ulterior motive.
Ultimately harming others and herself.
Lin Zhiyi pieced the events together, suddenly feeling tricked.
…
Su He Bay.
When Gong Chen awoke, two people stood by the bed.
Chen Jin and Zhou Zhao.
He frowned: “Where’s Zhiyi?”
Chen Jin pursed his lips in silence.
Zhou Zhao shrugged helplessly: “Third Young Master, Miss Lin said she would sleep in the guest room, not to disturb us discussing important matters.”
“…”
She’s discovered.
