[GB] Boss Ruan, your husband doesn't want you anymore.

Acrid smoke and increasingly loud shouts emanated from the room where Ruan Qian'an was, a sound that was incredibly distressing to hear.

Chi Xiao arrived at the door and was choked by the fumes, tears streaming down his face.

He anxiously gripped the doorknob, trying to open it, only to find that the door was locked from the inside.

Chi Xiao's hair was disheveled, and she was pulling hard with all her might to pull the door outwards, but it didn't budge.

Chi Xiao fired several shots at the door lock with the gun in his hand, and then went to pull the door.

The heat inside made the group take a few steps back.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Chi Xiao covered his mouth and nose with his arm and rushed in, raising his gun and shouting, "Boss!"

......

pain.

Ruan Qian'an had no idea how shrill her screams were; they were simply screaming out of instinct.

Why can she feel pain?

Chi Xiao looked at the person in the center writhing in pain and shouted outside, "Quickly put out the fire!"

Half of Ruan Qian'an's body was burning.

After a period of commotion...

The surrounding fires were all extinguished, but the flames on Ruan Qian'an's body could not be extinguished at all, as if she were still alive.

Chi Xiao knelt beside Ruan Qian'an, who was convulsing in pain. Chi Xiao wanted to touch the fire to extinguish it, but he couldn't find a way to do so.

Chi Xiao's eyes were bloodshot, a result of the shock caused by Ruan Qian'an's current appearance and the choking smoke.

Several men with guns came over and said, "Sir, it's not safe here!"

Chi Xiao stared at them with bloodshot eyes, clenching his teeth in hatred.

The men turned pale instantly upon seeing this scene and were speechless.

His hands trembled as he reached out to extinguish the flames on Ruan Qian'an's body; even if he couldn't extinguish them, he could transfer them to himself.

Just as he was about to meet him.

The white pearl fell from his sleeve, instantly shattering into powder that scattered onto Ruan Qian'an's body, finally extinguishing the flames burning on her.

Chi Xiao was completely unaware of the pearl's effect: "Quickly, put the boss on the stretcher."

.....

Ruan Qian'an's body was covered in burn marks, and she felt that even her breath carried heat waves.

She slowly opened her eyes; she was lying in bed.

Chi Xiao's surprised voice came to her ear: "Boss, you're awake."

Ruan Qian'an couldn't even turn her head.

Ruan Qian'an's waist-length hair was cut short, barely reaching behind her ears, and half of her face was burned.

Being burned by a special flame meant that even without pain, one could still feel it. For Ruan Qian'an, who is now slowly regaining consciousness, it is an even more agonizing ordeal that penetrates to the bone.

"Boss" Dust Staff.

Ruan Qian'an's voice was hoarse and unpleasant: "Why are you here?"

Dust Staff: "If I hadn't come, you would have died!"

This was a rare instance of her emotional fluctuation.

Ruan Qian'an asked Chi Xiao, "Is Huo Jingmo alright?"

Chixiao: "No."

"It's obvious that the boss is targeting you; nothing like this has ever happened before."

Ruan Qian'an: "Not many people know about that place."

Ruan Qian'an took a breath and said with some difficulty, "And you are the only one who knows that I have a period of weakness."

Chi Xiao stood up in a panic and said, "Boss, it couldn't have been me who leaked it! I would never do such a thing!"

Ruan Qian'an: "I know it wasn't you."

"Where are we now?"

Ruan Qian'an's voice was now as weak as a mosquito's buzz.

Dust Staff: "Boss, this is a property under my name. You can rest assured and heal your injuries here."

"I have never shown my face in the organization, so I will not reveal my position."

Ruan Qian'an nodded.

Those who dare to take action must already know about her vulnerable period.

Who was it? Who leaked it? And who did it? She really had absolutely no clue.

This feeling is really unpleasant.

Seeing that her boss hadn't paid any attention to her, Chen Zhang said, "Boss, just let me stay here and guard you."

Ruan Qian'an: "No."

Chen Zhang squatted down beside Ruan Qian'an's bed and pleaded, "Boss, I'm the only person you can use right now."

Dust Staff pointed at Crimson Sky and said, "Do you really intend to rely on this piece of trash?"

Ruan Qian'an closed her eyes: "I need to rest."

Dust Staff moved its lips as if it wanted to speak, but in the end it chose to shut up and swallow all the words it wanted to say.

She stood up and gestured with her eyes for Chi Xiao to go out with her, and Chi Xiao followed her out.

Dust Staff looked coldly at Chi Xiao: "There's no way I can go back in this state, Boss."

"Please help me persuade her."

Chi Xiao was very displeased with Chen Zhang's arrogant attitude and said, "Why should I help you? Besides, no one can change the boss's will."

Chenzhang leaned against the wall with his arms crossed: "Look at the state our boss is in now, and you're still not going to help me!"

Chixiao: "Dust Staff, you need to know that you don't need to worry about these things. Just follow orders and don't act on your own. I hope you will always remember this sentence."

Dust Staff's face was expressionless, like an emotionless doll.

“I’ve been by the boss’s side the longest. Maybe it’s because I’ve never shown myself that you don’t know me or what I’m capable of doing to achieve my goals.”

Chen Zhang opened the door and went in, saying, "Since you're unwilling to help me, then you don't need to take care of the boss anymore."

Chi Xiao replied as if he were listening to a joke: "Who do you think you are!"

The only response he received was the sound of a door slamming shut, leaving Chi Xiao locked outside. Chi Xiao thought, "What an idiot."

Chen Zhang walked to the bedside where Ruan Qian'an was lying, knelt down, and said, "Boss, I'm not leaving!"

Ruan Qian'an sighed softly and said, "You shouldn't have come. Do you know what will happen if you just leave that place?"

"What kind of harm will it cause you?"

Chen Zhang knelt and walked toward Ruan Qian'an, saying devoutly, "Your Majesty, I finally found you. Even if I die, I will die with you."

“But from the moment we recognized each other, you made me stay in that place, which is not fair.”

Ruan Qian'an said with difficulty, "Tell me, what gives you the confidence to come out?"

Chen Zhang said, "Dr. Li went to me for help, asking you to release that child."

"That blind Dr. Li didn't even recognize who you were. He thought you were a priest he created. He's really blind."

Ruan Qian'an: "What are your thoughts?"

A cunning glint lurked in Chen Zhang's calm, unwavering eyes: "I just want him to take my place for a while."

She said ominously, "How could he possibly trust me?"

Ruan Qian'an felt her lungs burning with every breath: "Is this the courage you had to come out on your own?"

Dust Staff: "Yes, I'd like to help you."

Ruan Qian'an's tone was somewhat evasive: "What kind of state have I become that would make you do this?"

The staff stood silent, its expressionless face seemingly weeping in silence.
