Mu Lian was crying her eyes out.
She felt like she had been incredibly unlucky lately.
First, she was inexplicably dumped by this man, then she was arrested, her grandmother was hospitalized, and now... now it's her parents.
She didn't know what she had done wrong, or why fate was playing such a cruel trick on her.
She already knows she was wrong about what happened before.
If repentance cannot make up for all the mistakes, then can't she bear all the consequences alone?
She really couldn't take it anymore.
It hurts so much.
My body aches, and my heart aches too.
Seeing her cry in despair, Qi Yan finally withdrew the tissue he had offered.
"I just happened to be passing by," he explained, adding that he didn't come specifically to see her make a fool of herself.
At this moment, the crowd in front of him was making a ruckus, and Qi Yan looked up at the horizon.
The fire has been extinguished, and the front half of the cruise ship has long since sunk into the sea.
Police officers on shore are conducting search and rescue operations.
"They'll be fine." Qi Yan looked away and glanced at Mu Lian, but the other was so absorbed in grief that she didn't want to talk to him for even a second.
He pursed his lips and awkwardly touched the tip of his nose.
He also knew that nothing he said now would make a difference.
Qi Yan put the tissue in his pocket, turned around, and prepared to leave.
But the next second, his dark eyes froze.
Because the man who had been standing in front had disappeared without anyone noticing.
Mu Chen.
Thinking of this man, Qi Yan frowned slightly.
For some reason, we collaborated several times.
He always felt that this person was hiding something.
"Fine," Qi Yan said, turning back to look at Mu Lian once more.
He glanced at her once, then looked away.
As he took a step, the woman who had collapsed on the beach behind him suddenly looked up and asked, "Can't you stay with me for a moment?"
"..." His footsteps paused.

Nighttime, in the deserted suburbs.
A black luxury car crashed into a white Bentley in front of it.
The car was thrown out of the car and spun around in the open space in front.
Inside the car, Mu Xing's forehead was covered in blood due to the sudden impact.
His face was grim, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Bang!
Just then, the sound of a car door slamming shut came from behind.
Mu Xing looked up at the rearview mirror, and in the mirror, he was pressing the tip of his tongue against his cheek, looking extremely dangerous.
A short while later, he also got off the bus.
A cold wind blew by, lifting his suit jacket.
Mu Xing wiped the blood from his face, still wanting to settle scores with that blind fool.
As soon as he got out of the car, a heavy fist slammed down on him, making Mu Xing instantly dizzy.
"Was the cruise ship explosion your doing?"
Just as I had gained a foothold, a cold voice came from ahead.
Mu Xing's eyes widened in surprise. He touched the corner of his mouth, his expression one of shock.
It was him.
Just then, the black shadow approached, and Mu Xing turned around abruptly.
In an instant, a strong and powerful hand gripped his neck.
Mu Xing let out a soft "uh," sounding somewhat pained.
What are you doing here?
The man looked at him, his dark pupils filled with a chilling, murderous intent.
Mu Xing's pupils contracted. "I...I don't know what you're talking about."
He wanted to struggle, he wanted to escape.
But the man's grip was so tight, so strong, that Mu Xing realized he had no chance of escaping at all.
"You, you are..."
Fear swept over them at that moment.
Mu Xing felt incredibly unlucky. He had been inexplicably hidden for several days and had only just woken up. How could he have been caught by this man so quickly?
