Chapter 350: Life on the Brink, A Final Request

withdraw first!"Han He opened the speedboat and left in a dashing manner.The driver started the car and drove towards Yu Zun Manor.Back on land, Mu Xing's tightly wound emotions finally relaxed. She...Fu Lingxiao swallowed the bitter, coppery taste rising in his throat, trying hard to focus his blurry vision on Mu Xing's face. "It's alright, don't be afraid."

"Well, I'm not afraid."

Tears churned in her eyes. Mu Xing struggled to break free from the hands pressing against her chest, slipping past the man's body to push against the load-bearing wall pinning him down.

"Bang!"

The roof's shaky floorboards suddenly collapsed and crashed down onto the load-bearing wall.

Fu Lingxiao, with his already strained body, was pressed down by the immense impact. He tilted his head and violently spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Uncle!"

Mu Xing cried out in alarm, her throat as if sliced by a blade, the pain radiating from her larynx into her heart and lungs.

Fu Lingxiao's breathing was heavy, his cold and white fingers trembled as he wiped the bloodstains splashed on Mu Xing's cheek, "I'm sorry, baby, I got you dirty."

"Little uncle, hold on."

Mu Xing desperately pushed against the load-bearing wall, crystal tears spilling from her eyes. The man, who had lowered his head, gently kissed them away. "I'm fine, baby, don't cry. It hurts me to see you like this."

Mu Xing gritted her teeth, her hands trembling as she pushed the load-bearing wall upwards a few centimeters, "Little uncle, you go quickly."

The man straightened his back, using his body to hold up the load-bearing wall, creating enough space. With all his might, he reached out with one hand and quickly pulled the small figure from under him.

The weight of the load-bearing wall was far beyond human capacity. Supporting it with one hand had already reached its limit. The moment Mu Xing was dragged out, Fu Lingxiao could no longer hold on. His arm bent, and his tall frame collapsed heavily onto the floor.

"Little Uncle!"

Mu Xing crawled back to the man's side amidst the debris, kneeling on shards and embers. With a small hand gripping the edge of the load-bearing wall, she exerted herself rapidly.

Her temples throbbed with prominent blue veins, her fair skin tinged crimson. With each mighty exertion, blood seeped from every pore on her body, a horrifying sight.

It almost painted her red with blood.

"Star child, don't..."

Fu Lingxiao's thin lips moved with difficulty, the hand that wasn't held down stretched towards Mu Xing little by little, trying to stop her, but he had no strength. The little girl was right in front of him, yet he couldn't reach her.

Mu Xing's thin body trembled violently, gritting her teeth with all her might!

"Bang!"

The load-bearing wall was suddenly ripped open!

Mu Xing's entire body went limp and she collapsed onto the floor, her chest heaving, breathing heavily. After resting for just a few dozen seconds, she pushed herself up and sat back down.

Hands soaked in blood held the man in her embrace, searching his person for an incense pouch. She emptied its contents—pills—and forced them into his mouth.

Thick smoke billowed all around, and the roaring flames illuminated the man's vacant eyes. Blood gushed from his pale lips in streams, and the pills in his mouth were too heavy to swallow.

Mu Xing lowered her head and kissed the man's thin lips, pushing the pill with her tongue and sending it into his throat.

"Little uncle, swallow it, please, just swallow it…"

She trembled with her little hands, constantly wiping the blood that oozed from the corner of his mouth, but it was impossible to wipe it all away.

Pain spread from her heart, inch by inch, quickly engulfing her whole body, seeping into her bones and marrow, making her almost suffocate. Hot tears, large and heavy, streamed down, mixing with blood, soaking the man's pale cheeks.

"Uncle, please swallow it quickly, I beg you…"

Fu Lingxiao's consciousness was blurry, darkness had completely engulfed his vision, he couldn't see Mu Xing, he could only vaguely hear her cries and pleas, as if they were coming from very far away.

He swallowed the pill in his throat with difficulty, his weak lips moving, "Xing'er... don't cry..."

In a haze of consciousness, he suddenly remembered that day when he told the little girl that he would make her love him again.

What did she say...

She said, "Fu Lingxiao, even if I die, I will never love you again."

She won't like him anymore, she just wants to escape him.

"Star child…"

Fu Lingxiao used the last of his strength to reach out and hug Mu Xing's slender waist. "I'm so tired, I can't hold on any longer. Please wait for me to fall asleep before you leave, okay When I fall asleep, my heart won't hurt anymore..."

"Little Uncle, don't sleep…"

Blood gushed from the man's head, soaking Mu Xing's arms. It was hot and sticky. She frantically swept away the scattered debris on the floor, laid the man down flat, and reached for her silver needles to pierce his acupoints.

We can't let Uncle sleep, if he sleeps, he might never wake up again.

Mu Xing's heart was being torn apart by fear, she kept talking to him: "Uncle, please open your eyes, as long as you open your eyes, I promise you, I won't leave again, just open your eyes and look at me, okay..."

"Good…"

Fu Lingxiao's breath was like gossamer, his powerless eyes opened to a sight devoid of even the faintest glimmer. Consciousness, however, was slowly dissipating...

After the explosion, the entire mansion caught fire.

The fire raged wildly, like the end of the world, it was impossible to get close.

The bodyguard arrived in a helicopter, hovering outside the broken bay window on the second floor master bedroom. After finally extinguishing the fire on the exterior wall, he jumped into the master bedroom with a fire extinguisher, "Master Fu! Miss Mu Xing!"

Mu Xing was simultaneously using acupuncture to protect Fu Lingxiao's pulse while dispersing the thick smoke around him. She herself had inhaled a large amount of smoke and was on the verge of suffocation.

Hearing the bodyguard's shout, she let out a breath she had been holding in, and her whole body went limp. "Send Little Uncle to the Medical Building..."

The bodyguard rushed over, plunging into the inferno. Everyone who saw what was happening stopped in their tracks, stunned.

In the heart of the chaotic, ruin-like inferno, a girl lay beside a man in a coma, her consciousness hazy. Both were drenched in blood, unable to distinguish whose it was.

The bodyguard didn't dare to hesitate, hurriedly lifted the person, stepping on the shards of glass, and quickly ran towards the floor-to-ceiling window, boarding the helicopter and heading for the medical building.

When the bodyguard entered the master bedroom to rescue people, Yu Rong had just rushed back to the manor. She did not stay at the villa for long and quickly returned to the medical building to prepare for emergency surgery.

Fu Lingxiao and Mu Xingyi were sent to the Medical Building and immediately pushed into the operating room.

- The explosion at the villa was so loud that it made the news.

Shen Lue, who was stationed at Nanshan Mental Hospital by order, received a message and immediately called Wu the Butler.

At this time, Butler Wu was guarding outside the operating room. Besides him, there were also Old Madam Fu, Shen Yi, He Chao, Zhao Jin, and Situ Xun, all of whom rushed over as soon as they heard the news.

Old Mrs. Fu, supported by Liu the Butler, stood trembling outside the operating room door. Her fingers twisted a rosary while tears glistened in her clear eyes.

Others fell silent, a heavy atmosphere hung in the air.

Wu Guanzhang walked to the corner and whispered the situation to Shen Lue in a low voice.

On the phone, Shen Lue learned that Grandpa Fu and Little Star were both in emergency care. All his nerves were instantly tightened, his heart beating wildly and uncontrollably with unspeakable fear.

He thought he would never see Little Star again, but unexpectedly, when he heard from her again, it was news that she was critically ill.

He desperately wanted to return to the estate, but this mission was of paramount importance to Master Fu. If he were to leave his post without permission and something went wrong, he couldn't bear the consequences.

After hanging up the phone, Shen Lue bit his finger and pondered for a moment before calling Situ Xun. grasped her small hand, turning it over to the back of his body. He pulled her back with one arm, and the girl's soft body bumped into his solid chest.He lowered his gaze and looked at her, "Baby, if...
