My Youth Began With Him

Qin Chu lowered his head and after a moment of thought, he whispered something in Gao Ran’s ears. He then turned and ran downstairs.

Qin Chu ran as fast as he could to the hospital roof, making his way next to Su Yu.

At the sight of Qin Chu, Huo Mian’s eyes began to water uncontrollably.

“Honey…” In front of Qin Chu, she immediately became a little girl in need of protection.

Qin Chu shook his head slightly, signaling for Huo Mian not to speak.

At the sight of Qin Chu, Jian Tong became even more irate. “Don’t push me or else I’ll kill her right now.”

“I’m not pushing you to do anything. All of your demands will be met so don’t do anything impulsive.” Qin Chu’s voice was chilling.

“I don’t believe in anything you say. You’re so sly… No, that’s it, I’m giving you ten more minutes and nothing more. If the helicopter’s not here by then, I will die with her. Haha, at least I won’t be alone in hell…” With that, Jian Tong moved further back.

Both Su Yu and Qin Chu’s hearts were about to jump out…

Huo Mian felt her body tilt backward, her body teetering on the brink of the hospital roof.

Ignoring Jian Tong, Qin Chu whispered to Huo Mian. “Honey, don’t worry. Let me sing a song for you.”

Su Yu was taken aback by Qin Chu’s words. He looked at the man funnily, thinking that he was insane.

Huo Mian wasn’t surprised, however, as she nodded for him to sing, tears streaming down her face.

If these were her last moments on earth, she didn’t mind Qin Chu being the last person she saw.

She wanted to tell her husband what to do after she leaves them. She wanted to tell him to take good care of the twins.

Before she could speak, however, Qin Chu’s singing already sounded.

“Returning to the very starting point… Your innocent face in my memories… We’ve finally arrived at this day…”

“Those old pictures under the clear table mat… Countless memories were pieced together… Today the boy will go and fulfill his last promise to the girl…”

The song <<Those Bygone Years>> was a song cherished by Qin Chu and Huo Mian. It always reminded them of their high school days and would bring them even closer. They could not stop talking about those beautiful memories.

More often than not, Qin Chu would sit atop the long bench on the balcony with Huo Mian next to him.

They would sing along to the song and Huo Mian would even rock left and right to the music.

So, when Qin Chu sang this song again, Huo Mian naturally began to sway left and right, moving to the beat of the music.

Suddenly, Qin Chu lifted his arms and made an ‘ok’ hand gesture.

Across from them, in the industrial building, Gao Rao watched through his binoculars, not missing even a second.

At the sight of Qin Chu’s signal, he immediately ordered, “Fire!”

Shoo! The bullet flew from behind, piercing Jian Tong’s head.

When it exited Jian Tong’s head, Huo Mian had hers tilted to the side, escaping the metal just in time.

The timing was perfect… but because the two women were too close together, Jian Tong’s fallback brought Huo Mian with her.

Huo Mian also fell backward…

“Huo Mian!”

“Mian!”

Both Su Yu and Qin Chu rushed forward immediately.

With a bullet in her head, Jian Tong fell from the 12th story, directly into the safety mattress the firefighters placed down below.

Huo Mian, on the other hand, fought for dear life as she held onto the railings on the side of the roof, her entire body hanging in mid-air…

Just then, Qin Chu rushed forward, grabbing Huo Mian’s hands, pulling her up with all his might.

“Honey…” As soon as they were safe, Huo Mian sunk into Qin Chu’s embrace.

All the emotions she had held back suddenly exploded, and she began crying right away…

“Waa…”

“It’s okay now, everything’s alright, everything’s over… You were great, you did amazing… You know to move your head once I sang… That’s how the sniper got the chance to shoot. Baby, you’re so brave, I’m very proud of you…” Qin Chu continued to comfort Huo Mian.

He then cupped her face and kissed away all of her tears…

Su Yu wanted to say something… He also wanted to comfort Huo Mian, but at the moment, he realized how much of a third-wheel he was.

For Qin Chu and Huo Mian, he was nothing but an outsider. He could watch but never be involved.

Especially after he heard the reason Qin Chu sang the song, that it was a set-up to get Huo Mian to move her head so that the sniper could take a shot, he couldn’t help but admire the fact that they were true soulmates.

So, quietly, Su Yu turned away and got off the roof without saying a word.

Qin Chu carried Huo Mian back to the hospital, walking directly into the emergency room.

She had been out in the cold for so long and her neck really was wounded. Although the cuts weren’t life-threatening, she did bleed out quite a bit.

Any doctor from the emergency room could have handled something like this but Qin Chu needed to be sure.

He changed into a disinfected white lab coat and followed the doctors into the emergency room to personally bandage Huo Mian up.

Jian Tong’s sudden death traumatized her family. Su Yu sent out Imperial Star’s legal team to deliver them the 50,000,000 yuan in hush money, silencing the whole thing.

To outsiders, this was a suicide case. Jian Tong couldn’t handle her disfigurement from her accident so she jumped off the building.

The police also closed the investigation quickly by reason of the death of the suspect.

Huo Mian grew very ill from the incident. She stayed at the hospital for 3 days and took a sick leave afterward.

Su Yu returned to his busy work; Jian Tong’s death was going to cost Imperial Star a fortune.

Su Yu now needed to select new female artists to train. At the same time, Xixi’s older sister, Nie Lingxuan, left the hospital to take over Jian Tong’s endorsements and commercial gigs.

Ironically, Jian Tong had previously used her status to bully Nie Lingxuan, stealing the latter’s endorsements; but now, her death guaranteed the success of others.

“President Su, Miss Nie is the final act for this year’s year-end banquet. Is that okay?” the director of the event planning department requested cautiously.

“That’s fine. You can plan it like that.” Su Yu didn’t even turn to look.

“President Su, Ni Yang’s almost done vacationing. Are there any arrangements for him? Should we organize a concert?”

“We’ll need to wait until his return to decide.”

“President Su, we’ve been thinking… Our company is really low on celebrities under our brand right now, especially female artists. Do you think you could persuade Miss Nie’s younger sister to sign with us? She’s incredibly beautiful and we’ve all witnessed her talents when she body-doubled for her sister…” Nie Lingxi’s agent suggested.

“We’ll need to see what she thinks. We can’t make the decision for her… Why don’t you arrange a meeting with Nie Lingxue and her younger sister? Update me once you get something.”

“Alright, President Su.”

“If that’s all, you’re all dismissed.” After a jam-packed afternoon, Su Yu was more than annoyed and exhausted. He didn’t even have the chance to take a sip of water.

After his subordinates left, his office door was pushed open once again.

“Haven’t I made myself clear? Why are you back?” Thinking that it was his men, Su Yu lifted his head in annoyance.

“Aren’t you happy to see me?” Tang Chuan snickered.

“Holy crap… why are you back?”
