An'an wanted to beat herself to death right then and there. It was all his fault, all because of him, that her sister was almost hurt.
Fortunately, Qi Lin descended from the sky and shielded Nuan Nuan from the disaster. Although it was a bit unkind to think that way, An An felt that his heart was biased from the start.
"Brother Qi Lin, can you still hold on? Let's go home and find my parents!" An An's first thought was to go find Shen Yanming. His father had spiritual spring water, energy rainwater, and ancient remedies.
Qi Lin shook his head, enduring the pain, and said, "It's not a good time to run back now. There are many buildings over there, and it's easy for something to happen. Uncle Shen and Aunt Qiao An are probably also on their way here."
An'an nodded: "Then, brother, hang in there! My parents will definitely find a way to save you!"
Qi Lin nodded, but didn't take it seriously.
He has a burn and needs to go to the hospital. Even if Uncle Shen is very capable, can he really cure him?
Hot air was constantly billowing out from the refuge area, and the three of them had to be constantly aware of their surroundings while they were talking.
In comparison, the injured child not far away looked much more pitiful.
Qi Lin noticed that An An had run from that direction, so he nudged An An, signaling him to go and help. But An An was worried about Nuan Nuan and refused to leave.
"Brother, go help Miao. Qi Lin is here, I'll be fine," Nuan Nuan said, sobbing.
An'an turned to look at Miao Ruzong, only to see him staring intently at her, a hurt look on his face. An'an sighed, resignedly ran over, and helped the weak.
Nuannuan looked at Miao and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She frowned, trying to shake off the strange thought in her mind.
When her gaze fell upon her backpack, she remembered that her mother had packed the spring water for her inside.
Nuan Nuan quickly took it out, unscrewed it, and fed it to Qi Lin. Qi Lin didn't know what it was, but he didn't refuse and drank a couple of sips from Nuan Nuan's hand.
He wasn't sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt that his back didn't hurt as much anymore.
Shen Yanming and Bi Qiaoan ran to the school as fast as they could, but it was already deserted. From the tracks on the ground, the couple discovered that a large group of people had fled towards the refuge area. Without delay, they followed the tracks.
They encountered several heat eruptions along the way, narrowly avoiding them each time. The bloodstains on the road were increasing, and Bi Qiaoan's heart pounded with fear that her child might be injured.
After finally reaching the refuge area, they found it already overcrowded. The couple searched for An'an and Nuan'an in the dense crowd, only to find that everywhere they looked, there were only individual people.
“An’an and Nuan Nuan should be together, but they are all alone. Could it be that our darling didn’t run this way?” Bi Qiaoan asked anxiously.
Shen Yanming didn't speak. He was tall and could see far. His gaze swept around, and he frowned as he noticed two people embracing in the corner. However, their figures were clearly those of a man and a woman.
Shen Yanming prepared to withdraw his gaze and search in other directions.
But at this critical moment, Qi Lin raised his head. Nuan Nuan's dirty little face appeared from his arms.
A thousand curses ran through Shen Yanming's mind. But now, he didn't have time to investigate further; he could only step forward and separate them.
"I found Nuannuan!" Shen Yanming grabbed Bi Qiaoan and ran forward. His face was serious, and he exuded a chilling aura.
Bi Qiaoan was stunned, wondering what was going on. Old Shen was actually angry. She only realized what was happening when she got closer.
"Qi Lin, when did you get back?" she asked in surprise. "Are you injured?"
Cold sweat dripped down Qi Lin's forehead. Nuan Nuan supported him, and when he saw his parents coming over, he burst into tears.
She cried and said, "Brother Qilin got hurt saving me! Mom and Dad, please save him!"
This was the first time Shen Yanming had seen his precious child cry so bitterly, and he felt a pang of sadness and heartache. He reached out and took Qi Lin from Nuannuan, freeing her from her grasp, and asked, "Where's your brother? Why isn't he here to protect you?"
Nuannuan pointed and said, "There, Miao is injured."
Shen Yanming looked up and saw An An supporting a thin figure behind the crowd. The person had an injured left eye and his hands were covered in blood.
At this moment, Shen Yanming was dissatisfied with An'an. Although he could understand her actions, he couldn't accept that An'an abandoned her sister to help someone else. In the end, he wasn't a saint; he was selfish too.
An An was initially wary of his surroundings, but sensing someone watching him, he looked up and, through a group of teenagers around 1.67 meters tall, saw the towering Shen Yanming. The woman next to him was Bi Qiaoan.
"Mom and Dad!" he murmured, a little flustered.
Miao Ruzong noticed his unusual behavior and tugged at his arm, asking, "What's wrong?"
An An shook her head and forced a smile: "It's nothing."
Miao Ruzong's eyes flickered, but he didn't say anything. He just tightened his grip on An'an's arm. An'an was too annoyed to notice.
Once Shen Yanming knew his son was safe, he stopped worrying about him. He asked Qi Lin to take off his coat so he could check his injuries.
Bi Qiaoan pulled Nuannuan to her side, keeping a watchful eye on her, afraid that Shen Yanming would be so focused on treating the wound that he would ignore his surroundings.
Qi Lin was stunned for a moment when he heard Shen Yanming's instruction. Although taking off his clothes wasn't a big deal, it was still too embarrassing with so many people watching.
"Hurry up and take it off, what are you waiting for? Do you want your back to rot?" Although Shen Yanming didn't directly come into contact with the heat, he knew that the thing was definitely not a good thing.
Qi Lin shivered and took off his thick cotton-padded coat. Then he put on his sweater and thermal underwear.
As he peeled off layer after layer of clothing, his face grew even paler, and cold sweat poured down his forehead. The surrounding cold air instantly seeped into his pores, making Qi Lin shiver, but his back still burned.
As the last vest came off, Bi Qiaoan caught a glimpse of Qi Lin's eight-pack abs out of the corner of her eye. She raised an eyebrow, thinking to herself that the young man was quite well-built. However, she quickly looked away.
Nuannuan, a little girl, leaned against Bi Qiaoan with her head down, so she didn't see anything.
Upon seeing this, Shen Yanming thought to himself that the young man's years of training hadn't been in vain. But when his gaze shifted to the man's back, he was shocked. The color... had he been deep-fried? The skin was torn and bleeding, a bloody mess!
He hurriedly took out the spiritual spring water to wash the wound, but the effect was limited. This was because the spiritual spring water only cleansed the surface of the skin, and couldn't remove the internal heat at all. The heat continued to penetrate inward, damaging his flesh and internal organs.
Shen Yanming broke out in a cold sweat, frantically pulling out medicinal powders and pills. But after trying for a long time, he couldn't find an effective method. Helpless, he could only let Qi Lin drink some spiritual spring water to protect his internal organs.
The two were so busy that they didn't notice that the hot air that had just erupted had stopped.
Bi Qiaoan dared not relax. After noticing the situation out of the corner of her eye, she searched her mind for a solution.
Finally, she had an idea.
