Gu Chen protected Shen Xian all the way, left the noisy crowd, came to a quiet corner of the office park, and sat her down on a bench.

"It's safe."

The man said in a low voice without any emotion.

Shen Xian's body was hunched over, and the brim of her hat covered most of her face. From Gu Chen's perspective, she looked extremely thin. With her sharp chin, thin body, and slightly trembling body, she didn't look like a human being. Someone who will risk his life to defuse bombs on the line between life and death.

"Thank you."

Shen Xian's voice was slightly hoarse. She didn't raise her head and held the edge of the bench with both hands, as if this would make her feel safer.

Gu Chen did not leave, but sat down beside her.

"You were very brave just now. Can you tell me your name?"

"Chen Xian." After a long silence, Shen Xian squeezed out two words from his white lips.

Gu Chen actually had a lot of questions to ask her. Why did she dismantle the bomb? Why did she let everyone leave but stayed? Why was she willing to risk her life for strangers even though she was scared... but in the end he just asked The simplest question came up.

The shoulders of Shen Xian's overalls were torn at some point, revealing his snow-white skin and half of an ugly scar.

Seeing that she was silent, Gu Chen stretched out his hand to help her pull up her clothes.

This move seemed to offend Shen Xian. She avoided the man's hand like an electric shock and looked at him warily.

Gu Chen was a little embarrassed and took back his hand hanging in the air.

"Weren't you afraid just now? Why didn't you run?"

Finally, Gu Chen asked the question he wanted to ask the most.

After Shen Xian's mood stabilized, she looked into the man's bright eyes. Different from the man's calmness, she asked a bit sharply: "Didn't you run away too? Did you stay just because it was your assistant who was trapped? If you were trapped Would you stay there if it was an ordinary employee?"

Gu Chen was stunned. He had never thought about this problem. But one thing is certain, the person trapped there is not only his assistant, but also his life and death brother!

At that time, he would not leave him alone.

"Don't ask others questions that you can't answer yourself. There are some things that you have no choice about. Danger will not give you that much time to make a choice."

Seeing that Gu Chen was silent, Shen Xian didn't want to say any more and stood up to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

Gu Chen stood up and took out his business card from the inner pocket of his suit, "I think you shouldn't just stay in the warehouse. This is my business card. You can call me at any time to make your request. Within a reasonable range, I will try my best to satisfy you."

Shen Xian did not accept the business card handed over by Gu Chen, "I like this job very much, and I don't need any awards for what I did today. Thank you!"

After saying that, she planned to leave.

Seeing this, Gu Chen quickly stuffed the business card in his hand into the pocket of Shen Xian's work clothes, "You can think about it slowly. What I said today will never expire."

Shen Xian didn't want to push him any further, so he turned around and left without refuting him.

Gu Chen looked at the thin figure leaving, his eyes dark, and he dialed the phone in his hand.

"Send someone over immediately to cooperate with the police investigation. In addition, check someone for me..."

The early autumn wind felt a little chilly on the body, but the exposed skin and scars on Shen Xian's shoulders felt hot and painful as if they had been burned by the autumn wind.

She did not return to the warehouse, sent a message to her supervisor asking for leave, and left the crowded warehouse park.

Shen Xian did not take a taxi, take the subway or take the bus. She still wore a hat to cover her face and carried her old bag with damaged work clothes. She lowered her head and walked quickly along the street.

She is like a walking machine without emotions! It seems that only in this way can she calm down her restless, fearful, and turbulent heart.

In this way, Shen Xian walked from the scorching sun to the falling night. Her legs were like lead, but she never stopped. It was hard to tell whether it was sweat or tears that fell on her face. Her lips were chapped and her eyes were empty.

Just like this, I walked mechanically through the noisy streets, crossed the overpass that glowed in the dusk... and walked all the way back to my hut.

She dropped her bag, took two bottles of cold beer from the refrigerator, stumbled to the rooftop, sat on a stone bench and drank heavily.

The street lights gradually lit up in front of her eyes.

The city still continues its brilliant lights, and not many people care about whether someone lost their life or had an accident in an unknown corner.

As long as it doesn't concern yourself, the world will be peaceful and beautiful!

But what about Shen Xian, is her world beautiful?

"Shen Xian."

A familiar yet slightly alienated voice came from the entrance to the rooftop passage.

Shen Xian trembled and stopped drinking. But she did not look back, as if she was afraid of something, and she seemed to be trying her best to deny the existence of the voice just now.

She raised her head and took another big gulp of wine.

The sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer, and Shen Xian drank more and more fiercely.

A slender hand snaked around the back of her neck and held the wine bottle in her hand.

"Shen Xian, it's been three years, and I finally found you."

The man's voice was clean, pleasant, magnetic and powerful, whispering gently in Shen Xian's ears.

With just this sentence, Shen Xian's eyes quickly turned red, mist filled his eyes, and everything in front of him began to become unreal.

The man took the wine in Shen Xian's hand and walked up to her. He was dressed in black clothes, blending into the same dark night. His body was slender and strong, and he exuded a cold and steely aura. The gentleness with which he spoke just now was in sharp contrast.

"Zhou Mu, you are here."

Shen Xian's tone was calm and he looked at the person in front of him with hazy eyes, as if he was destined to know that he would come.

Zhou Mu sat down on the stool opposite Shen Xian, leaned forward slightly, and gently wiped away the tears that Shen Xian had shed without realizing it.

"I saw the media reports about Shenfei Group." Zhou Mu paused briefly and continued: "With your photos."

Although those photos only captured half of Shen Xian's face, he, who was so familiar with Shen Xian, still recognized him at a glance. Following the clue of Shen Fei Logistics, he quickly found Shen Xian's residence.

Three years later, he finally found her.

Looking at the thin woman in front of him with distress, he tried his best to control the emotions surging in his heart.

"Shen Xian, you have lost weight again."

"You're still the same." Looking at the man who was as cold as the night in front of him, Shen Xian forced a smile.
