"Why aren't you asleep yet?" Shen Yanming asked, putting the clothes in his hand into his spatial storage as he lowered the curtain.

"Thinking about something. What about you? You seem to be in a good mood." Bi Qiaoan put the goose into her spatial storage and asked with a smile.

"Yes, at 10:30 pm, we completed the search and rescue mission and rescued all the guards trapped in Dongcheng. Because it was timely, no one died, and those who were injured only suffered minor injuries and will recover after a period of rest," Shen Yanming said with a relaxed smile.

"Really? That's wonderful!" Bi Qiaoan was also happy for the guards who had escaped death, but what she cared about more was: "Starting tomorrow, your work won't be so heavy, right?"

“Yes, we’ll still be digging for supplies all over the city, just like before. I’ll come back to have dinner with you every day.” Shen Yanming couldn’t hide the ease in his tone, but he noticed that Bi Qiaoan’s smile froze for a moment.

"What's wrong? Something on your mind?"

Seeing that Shen Yanming had asked, Bi Qiaoan recounted her thoughts for the day. "Well, if it weren't for their selfless dedication, I probably wouldn't have been able to connect with them. But now, I feel guilty for having the ability but not using it."

Shen Yanming fell silent after hearing this. He too was plagued by guilt, which was why he had risked his life to save people.

"It's alright, let's wait a bit longer. We'll make our move when the time is right."

“Okay!” Bi Qiaoan smiled, then suddenly said, “I don’t know why, but after talking to you, even though I didn’t do anything, I feel much more at ease.”

"You naughty girl, you're sure I'll help you, aren't you?" Shen Yanming took off his coat and lay down next to Bi Qiaoan, asking.

Bi Qiaoan didn't know what to say, so she could only say, "Hehehe, hee hee!"

The atmosphere here was just right, but on Li Sikai's side, the air was thick with tension.

"Get out! Who told you to bring him in? Throw him out!" Yuan Ruoxi shouted at Tao Jianian on the bed towards the outside of the tent.

"Ruoxi, don't make things difficult for them. I asked them to bring me here. I'm your boyfriend, after all, it's only natural for us to live together."

"Besides, aren't you the one who loves me the most? Aren't you crying and begging to have my babies?" Tao Jianian lay on the bed, turned his head, and looked at Yuan Ruoxi with deep affection.

"I, I, I wasn't joking!" Yuan Ruoxi was a little exasperated. She knew that Tao Jianian had suffered a comminuted fracture of his knee and probably would never be able to stand up again. How could she give someone like that a chance to cling to her? "Besides, don't you know why I don't let you stay here?"

"What's the reason?" Tao Jianian pretended not to know.

"If you hadn't tackled me, I would have been buried under the rubble for twenty hours and almost didn't wake up from the fever."

"Ruoxi, I am deeply sorry for the harm I have caused you, but I really didn't mean to."

Tao Jianian's voice was filled with sorrow and grief, "I was hit by the wall and that's why I fell. I really didn't expect that my fall would implicate you. If I had known this would happen, I, I, I definitely wouldn't have agreed to go to that ruin with you for the mission. That way, you wouldn't have suffered this undeserved disaster!"

Tao Jianian wasn't really apologizing. His words were merely a reminder to Yuan Ruoxi that she had insisted on dragging him on the mission; otherwise, he'd be perfectly fine now. In truth, he was the one who was caught in the crossfire!

Although he did pounce on Yuan Ruoxi with the intention of dying together at the time, times have changed. Now that everyone is alive and he has been sentenced to lifelong disability, he has no choice but to change his story and seize the opportunity to cling to Yuan Ruoxi. Otherwise, what will he do for the rest of his life?

With this in mind, after regaining consciousness following the surgery, Tao Jianian made a grand request to the guards to take him to his girlfriend's tent to recuperate. When the doctors and nurses learned that his girlfriend was the "Fairy of Nancheng," there was quite a stir among them.

With guards carrying them and medical personnel following along, the impressive procession naturally attracted a large crowd. Tao Jianian not only didn't stop it, but was actually happy to see it happen.

He wanted to use public opinion to force Yuan Ruoxi to compromise and take over his life from then on.

Therefore, he spoke quite loudly when he said these words, and those who were eavesdropping around the tent naturally heard everything clearly.

After learning the whole story, although they dared not openly criticize each other, their eyes revealed contempt and dissatisfaction towards Yuan Ruoxi when they looked at each other.

If it weren't for her foolishness, would Tao, the male god, have suffered so much and endured so much pain?

Given Tao Jianian's good reputation over the years, everyone automatically assumed that Yuan Ruoxi used her spatial abilities to pressure him through the guards, forcing him to abandon his wife and find a new love.

Now, his new love has left him due to an accident, which has left everyone feeling indignant.

Sigh, one really shouldn't underestimate Tao Jianian's popularity before the apocalypse. No wonder Yuan Ruoxi risked revealing her hand to make him her subject the moment she saw him.

Tao Jianian's words left Yuan Ruoxi speechless, but she was still unwilling to give up. "Even so, you can't come to me. We were just a couple a few times, but you're still someone's legal husband. You were injured, shouldn't she take care of you without taking off her clothes?"

The person who overheard said that today was truly an eye-opener. Is she going to take the bait and then deny it? What a scumbag woman!

"Ruoxi, you know perfectly well that when you took me away, my marriage with my wife was already dead in all but name. She would never accept me coming back. Besides, such a big thing happened while I was seeing you. She's already having a hard time living alone, how can I bear to add to her burden?"

Yuan Ruoxi shouted angrily, "Then how can you bear to cause me trouble?" She had run out of patience after trying to reason with him for so long.

"How could I possibly cause you trouble!" Tao Jianian's tears flowed uncontrollably. "If possible, I would rather have never met you. If there is an afterlife, I would rather not be a star." After saying that, she burst into tears.

The people outside the tent were heartbroken after hearing this. Several fans couldn't hold back and rushed in, pointing at Yuan Ruoxi and cursing: "You piece of trash, you broke up someone's family and became a mistress, you stole our Brother Nian and you don't treat him well. Have you lost your conscience?"

Since you forced yourself on him and crippled him, you have to take responsibility for him for the rest of your life! Otherwise, I'll beat you to death, you bastard!
