Chapter 2014 - Fortune’s Favor Awaits Those who Survived the Catastrophe (5)
“Chu, I love you so much, you must do it… I know it’ll be cruel and painful for you, but you should know that if you let me live and sacrifice Little Bean, I’ll spend the rest of my life in pain…”
“I know, but Mian, I can’t lose you. I really can’t lose you anymore…”
Qin Chu held Huo Mian tightly, he wanted to hold her like this forever.
When the bomb goes off, they would be able to just go to the next world together.
“Honey, I’m already happy enough. I have you, our daughters, our family, and our friends… I’ve lived a fulfilling life, I don’t have any regrets… I know that it’ll be difficult for you to face the rest of your life, but the kids are still so young… They need a good guardian… You have to keep living and shoulder the responsibility of being a father. You already missed three years with them, you have to make up for that with the rest of your life,” Huo Mian tried to convince Qin Chu with his fatherly duties.
“What about you? Mian, we already missed eleven years together… How many eleven years do we have in life? How could you leave me so cruelly?” Qin Chu was in agonizing pain.
“I don’t want to leave you… Maybe this is fate. If there’s a next life, I’ll still be waiting for you at Second High… We’ll be high school sweethearts, and when we graduate, we’ll study in America together. When we come back, we’ll take over your family’s business, get married, and have kids. Wouldn’t a life like that be wonderful?”
“I don’t want the next life, I only want this life.” Qin Chu tightly held Huo Mian and refused to let go.
“President Qin, time’s running out… You have to make a decision now.”
The experts urged him.
Qin Chu lowered his head and saw that the timer had a mere three minutes left on it. His heart turned cold.
“I am saving my wife…” Qin Chu hardened his heart and announced.
“If you do that, I’ll kill myself when I wake up. I can’t sacrifice Little Bean.” Huo Mian looked at Qin Chu with hatred.
“Mian…”
“Don’t call me Mian… I won’t sacrifice Little Bean. If you selfishly choose me, I’ll hate you for the rest of my life. Even if I live, I’ll commit suicide. You’ll lose us both…”
Huo Mian ruthlessly threatened.
At that moment, Gao Ran urged him through the radio.
“Chu, you need to make a decision quickly, I got Little Bean away. If you choose Huo Mian, you have to leave. If you choose the kid, I have to leave… We can’t stay much longer, we don’t know how strong the bomb will be…”
“President Qin, make a decision. The time is running out.”
Everyone was urging Qin Chu, he felt like his head was going to explode.
Finally, he shouted with a raspy voice, “Save my daughter…”
After speaking, he turned to leave. His tears rushed out like floodwater as he walked.
When the experts heard that, they followed Qin Chu out.
It meant that Huo Mian was going to explode soon.
Huo Mian finally let out a breath…
She looked at Qin Chu’s silhouette and thought that he was the most handsome man in the world.
“My love, thank you.” With tears in her eyes, she closed them and waited for the final moment.
On the other side, when Gao Ran saw Qin Chu and the experts approach him, he uneasily asked, “You really made your decision?”
“Shut up and cut the wire.” Qin Chu finally snapped and pointed the experts towards Little Bean’s explosives.
