When Hei Huomian was holding Bai Shuiru and wanted to teleport away, he was attacked by all the Piao. The three secret guards were also entangled by the other Piao and could not move away.

While Heihuomian was fighting the attack alone, Bai Shuiru quickly untied the smallest ring on his belt buckle and put it on a water pipe on the building. The gradually tilting and sliding floor was exploded again and broke into pieces.

"Heihuo Mian!" Bai Shuiru turned around quickly and grabbed Heihuo Mian's belt, but Heihuo Mian fell into empty air due to the loose floor.

"Little brush, I'll be happier if you pull my hand." Hei Huomian looked back and followed Bai Shuiru's arm, which was muscular because of pulling him. He smiled and teased, and "stringed" another string of puffs with his backhand, "I'm not very handsome in this pose."

As the load on the water pipe became heavier, there was a sad sound of metal pipe deforming. The leaking water drops were like the leisurely footsteps of the Black and White Impermanence, falling drop by drop on the back of Bai Shuiru's right hand, and finally slowly sliding into the fingers that were holding Heihuo Mian's belt.

"Death... is coming," Bai Shuiru said with a half-resentful and half-angry look, frowning and baring her teeth as she tightened the black fire leather belt in her slippery right hand, "Still trying to be cool! I can't hold on - ah!!", as more and more sweat oozes from her forehead, her arm, which had used all its muscles and tendons, suddenly loosened.

"Black Fire Sleep!!"

As Bai Shuiru was forced to let go and scream, Hei Huomian fell in free fall.

Bai Shuiru's wailing continued, and the water pipes that supported her were finally overloaded and bent and lowered, and then she also fell rapidly, "Black Fire..."

Bai Shuiru paused in mid-air as he continued to wail in despair.

"Hey, Mengmeng is here." Hei Huomian held the jade wooden basket in one hand and held Bai Shuiru firmly in his arms with the other hand, and kissed the tip of her nose with a smile, "Mengmeng is always by my little brush's side."

Before Bai Shuiru could even blink in confusion, Hei Huomian had already teleported her back to his bedroom in Sucong Manor, took back the jade can, and suddenly hugged her tightly in his arms, expressing his deep love:

"Shui Rushui Ru, you must not know that I was really worried and panicked when I didn't get to you just now! Because you didn't call me when you were in danger just now, which means you no longer need me, I am no longer important to you, and you may even leave me at any time."

Bai Shuiru's face was calm. She raised her hands slightly and put them on Heihuomian's solid back, but then gently dropped them beside her.

"It was not until you risked your life to save me just now that I felt a little relieved.

You still have me in your heart." Hei Huomian suppressed his heart that was always attached to her, and as he knelt on one knee, his hands slid down her arms, and then he took her hand and solemnly continued:

"Bai Shuiru, I, Hei Huomian, pray that you are willing to establish a deeper relationship with me. I do not expect you to accompany me forever, but I pray that you can accompany me even for a moment. I promise you:

As long as you, Bai Shuiru, want to leave me, Hei Huo Mian, you can cancel all ties with me at any time and leave quietly. I swear I will never bother you. "

Bai Shuiru looked down at Hei Huomian who was looking at him with pity, just like a believer looking up at a god. He took a deep breath and replied:

"I have just realized that the sense of achievement a person gets in this life should not come from the recognition of any other person; similarly, the glory and achievement that I, Bai Shuiru, seek do not come from your affirmation, Hei Huomian, but from the depths of my heart," Bai Shuiru placed his hands on his chest and continued sincerely and proudly:

“As long as I acknowledge myself, recognize myself, and affirm myself, then whether I make even a little progress every day or achieve a little success every now and then, I will continue to move forward and will no longer be the person I was yesterday or even the day before yesterday.”

As Bai Shuiru held her head high and gazed out at the distant mountains through the floor-to-ceiling window, a soft white light could be faintly seen emanating from her body.

“No, Shui Ru, I always recognize you for everything you do, and you do it very well. I have always supported you in the past, present and future,” Hei Huomian yawned unconsciously, “Shui Ru, listen to me--” He took off his sunglasses and rubbed them hard between his eyebrows, trying to suppress another long yawn, “I don’t know…why you changed…your mind about me…I just want to tell you, actually, I am Mu…”

"Mu what?"

Bai Shuiru tilted her ear to try to listen, but she only felt a weight on her shoulder. The familiar long and even breathing sounded in her ears. She tilted her head to look at Hei Huomian who was sleeping soundly on her shoulder. She tried to steady his body and called Uncle Nan to help support him to rest.

You actually fell asleep like this?

Perhaps, I have affirmed my own identity, so my own attributes have been strengthened.

"Miss Bai seemed really angry. This time she not only moved all her things back to her bedroom, but she even changed the door lock."

What is Uncle Nan talking about?

In a daze, Hei Huomian heard someone chattering at the head of the bed.

"I saw it. She changed it herself. It's a combination lock. I just happened to pass by. She immediately wiped the door lock panel with her clothes, fearing that I would guess the password from the fingerprints and tell the boss." Li You lamented the despair unique to workers. "Rather than worrying about Miss Bai getting angry, you might as well worry about how to wake up the boss. The situation is really serious."

"I've tried stinky tofu, Fengyoujing, and acupuncture, but to no avail."

"How about changing to an awl?" Uncle Nan disappeared and reappeared in an instant, "It's thicker after all."
