Chapter 400 - 402 - Hua Hua’s Shy Secret 3_1
His veins bulged visibly, a cold, sideways glance was cast towards Yan Fengchi: "Fine, you deal with it, just make sure it’s handled to my satisfaction."
Simultaneously, he aimed ruthlessly at the root of his thigh and fired a shot.
"Bang——"
"Ahhh————"
The quiet basement was now devoid of any other sound.
At this moment, everyone wanted to get rid of the Great Lai.
Though the shot missed the vital parts, it was enough to leave him gasping for breath!
Unseen by others, Yan Fengchi sighed to himself, then Gu Shaocheng threw down his gun quickly, pulled out a Swiss Army knife hung on his waist, slashed off the ropes that bound him, took off his coat, and covered Hua Hua’s body, which bore the marks of whipping.
While helping Hua Hua into the coat, the iron-blooded man struggled to control his choking emotions.
His hands gently caressed the back of Hua Hua’s ears, murmuring in his ears repeatedly, "Hua Hua, it’s okay now, everything is alright, I’m here, stay awake..."
After a long while, Hua Hua could barely make out the person before him in his blurred vision, responding unclearly, "Brother? Brother, is that you?"
"It’s me, I’m going to get you out of here, you’re safe now!"
Hua Hua gritted his teeth firmly, "I knew you wouldn’t let anything happen to me."
At that time, he had said the same thing, the words still ringing in his ears, his memory merging with the present.
"I seem to see a lot of blood..." He was scared, trembling, but not a single tear dropped, always maintaining his humiliating pride. Hua Hua, who would normally wail and howl, did not make a sound of grief at this moment. However, he couldn’t stop his total weakness and uncomfortable shortness of breath.
"There’s no blood, it’s just an illusion, can you stand up?" Gu knew the blood in his memory was from his past trauma, not just Hua Hua, Gu felt the same way too. Seeing the bruise on his chest, the memory of his first kill washed over him like a tidal wave.
However, these feelings no longer posed any threat to him.
Clearly, for Hua Hua, that was a nightmare that could never be erased.
He grabbed his own hands, tried hard twice, but he was so weak that he couldn’t stand up at all.
Gu squatted down without hesitation and carried him on his back.
At this moment, Nan Baihao walked in with a few bodyguards, witnessing the scene in the room. He walked over quickly wanting to replace Gu Shaocheng, "Brother, let me carry him."
Gu lifted Hua Hua on his back a bit, "No need, I got this."
The moment Hua Hua was being carried by Gu, his teeth couldn’t stop chattering. His hands gripped Gu’s neck, leaning his head on his shoulder. Tears fell at the corner where others couldn’t see. His nightmare that lasted for more than ten years was finally over, he had never felt safer than being carried by his brother.
At that moment, the fear that had been suppressed for more than ten years surged uncontrollably.
He suddenly bit down hard on Gu’s left shoulder, preventing himself from making a wailing sound.
Gu Shaocheng felt a pain on his shoulder and paused momentarily, the next second, without uttering a word, he strode away, carrying Hua Hua out of the grimy basement.
Back in the car, Gu quickly took the blanket handed over by his subordinate and wrapped Hua Hua in it. Hua Hua’s vacant eyes slowly regained focus, looking at his brother who covered him with the blanket, his lips trembling, "Do I look very pathetic now, not sassy anymore?"
Gu’s eyes were bloodshot, "You’re still sassy."
Yet a brewing storm was evident behind his gaze.
