Chapter 1238: Chapter 1265: Dust Settles (Part 1)

"I do, I do!"

Shi Nuan was in tears, cherishing everything even more after surviving the ordeal. She held him tighter, not minding the smell of smoke on the man,

"Chu Zhan, no matter what happens in the future, I won’t give up on you anymore."

Most of Chu Zhan’s body was burned, and being hugged so tightly by Shi Nuan made his vision go black with pain, but he didn’t show it at all and just smiled foolishly.

Nianyang and the Jian Family were watching from a distance without interrupting. After Shi Nuan and Chu Zhan finished whispering, Nianyang came over, her eyes slightly red, and said,

"Brother, luckily you’re okay. If something had happened to you, I wouldn’t have let you off."

"I’m sorry, sister, for frightening you."

Chu Zhan said, and then he looked at Lu Xingshen, who hadn’t said a word, his expression complex,

"Actually, I wasn’t supposed to make it out. It was Mr. Lu who came in just in time to find me, and after the second floor collapsed, he carried me and jumped straight down, and that’s how I was saved."

This was truly hard to believe, that in the end, it was said Lu Xingshen saved Chu Zhan.

Not to mention Chu Zhan, even Shi Nuan and Nianyang were momentarily stunned and didn’t know what to say.

Although it seemed that the main culprit in this matter was Lu Xingshen, at the end of the day, he really hadn’t done anything substantial.

Everything was caused by Jian Qingqing’s machinations, and Lu Xingshen just hadn’t foreseen it.

Now that he had risked his life to save Chu Zhan, there seemed no reason to blame him.

The resentment Shi Nuan had towards him was also dispelled because Chu Zhan was saved.

In this moment, no one said a word.

Until Chu Zhan spoke first, "Thank you."

Lu Xingshen’s voice was a bit hoarse, yet cold,

"No need to thank me. Ten years ago, you saved Nuan, now I’ve saved you. We owe each other nothing."

Chu Zhan knew that what he meant was he had used the fact that Chu Zhan saved Nuan when they were young and took credit for it.

So now that he saved Chu Zhan, it was offset.

Lu Xingshen didn’t want to owe a rival any favors, this was his only pride.

Pretending for so many years, finally being freed, at this moment he felt surprisingly relaxed.

Chu Zhan remained silent for a few seconds, then said okay.

But in the next second, as his body and mind relaxed, he fainted.

"Chu Zhan!"

Shi Nuan immediately supported Chu Zhan, extremely anxious.

Nianyang calmly checked Chu Zhan’s pulse and said, "Don’t worry, Nuannuan, my brother is just weak and needs a glucose injection and to have his wounds treated."

Shi Nuan felt slightly relieved, and the Jian Family promptly arrived, arranging for people to carry Chu Zhan to the car, ready to leave in a grand procession.

Lu Xingshen remained standing in place, unmoving.

He watched Shi Nuan busy herself, heart trembling with fear for Chu Zhan, with no room in her mind or heart for anyone else.

It seemed that all his deep affection and love over the years were worthless.

"Xiao Nuan..."

Seeing Shi Nuan about to leave without turning back, Lu Xingshen finally couldn’t help but call out to her.

Always feeling that once she left, she would no longer be in his life.

"Second Uncle, do you still have something?" Shi Nuan asked calmly.

Lu Xingshen’s heart trembled, she still called him Second Uncle, did it mean she still had feelings for him?

Perhaps seeing through Lu Xingshen’s thoughts, Shi Nuan continued,

"Second Uncle, considering you saved Chu Zhan, I don’t hate you. I still acknowledge you, you’re still my Second Uncle."

"But that’s all there is to it."

Shi Nuan’s voice was cold and indifferent.
