Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Su Yu had a headache. Her memories were clouded, “Mom, what happened to me? All I remember is that I was in a room, but when I woke up I ended up here.”
She looked around the hospital and was confused. Plus, her six brothers, who rarely got together, suddenly appeared in front of her. Su Yu was curious as to what had happened.

“Silly child, there was a fire at the banquet. I don’t know why you fell asleep in the hotel room. This time, that baster Fu finally did something good,” Zhan Xin praised Fu Yunian as she spoke.
If he wasn’t there, Su Yu would have been gone!
“What does it have to do with him?” Su Yu asked in confusion. The Su family hated Fu Yunian more than ever, but Zhan Xin actually praised him today. This confused her.
Seeing that she had completely forgotten what happened at the banquet, Zhan Xin told her everything she knew, “When the banquet hall caught fire, everyone rushed out. He was the only one that looked for you everywhere. He ignored the fire and rushed into the main hall to find you. When he came out, he had even placed his wet jacket on you. He acted like a gentleman!”

By the time she received the news and rushed to the hospital, Fu Yunian’s skin was burned, and had fainted. Meanwhile, Su Yu was covered in his wet jacket, so her skin wasn’t burned at all. She simply fainted.

This shocked Su Yu. A dream-like image suddenly appeared in her mind, “He saved me? Where is he? How is he?”

She remembered that she was changing in her room. But, when she heard the commotion in the hall and was about to go check, she realized that the door was locked from the outside.

The fire started from the outside and soon, the heat was so strong that she couldn’t stand it. Just as she was about to suffocate, she suddenly felt a wisp of air and couldn’t remember what happened after that.
Speaking of Fu Yunian, Zhan Xin felt a bit worried, “He inhaled a lot of smoke and is still unconscious.”
“Mom, save him! Lingan, save him!” Hearing that he was unconscious because he was trying to save her, Su Yu panicked.

Seeing how worried Su Yu was for him, her brothers asked, “Do you still…”
“No, I don’t want to owe him a favor.” Before they could finish speaking, Su Yu immediately answered. She didn’t want to face this question.

How could she not love a man that she had been in love with for more than five years!

Even though Su Yu did not admit her feelings for him, her brothers could feel it and get worried.
Even though Lingan hated Fu Yunian, he had saved Su Yu this time. So, he wasn’t going to let him die. “Yu, don’t worry. It’s just a little smoke. He’ll be fine in no time.”
Su Yu thought for a moment,
“Lingan, I’ll have Xiao Yu send a card over here later. When he wakes up, can you give him this card? I think it could be a reward for saving me. I don’t want to owe him a favor,” In that bank card, there was actually the money that Fu Yunian gave to her when they divorced. Su Yu had not touched a single cent of it.
1
This time, he risked his life to save her. Apart from money, Su Yu did not know what else she could give him in return.
1
“No problem, as long as my sister thinks this is the best.” The Su family did not lack money. Even if Su Yu wanted to take half of the Su family’s wealth and give it to Fu Yunian, they wouldn’t object. All they wished for was that Su Yu could be safe and happy.

Meanwhile, Fu Yunian had just woken up when Lingan brought a doctor to check on him.
Even though his sister had suffered for five years because of this man, he was still her savior. So, he couldn’t let anything happen to him.

Seeing that he was fine, Lingan pulled out the bank card that Xiao Yu had given him and handed it over, “The girl you saved asked me to give it to you.”
“Where is she? Is she okay? Is the child… Is the child okay?” As soon as he heard about Su Yu, Fu Yunian immediately got nervous.
Ever since he rescued her, he had no idea how she was doing. She was still pregnant and he couldn’t help but worry about her.
As soon as Lingan heard Fu Yunian ask about the child, he assumed that he wanted to snatch the child away from them. So, he immediately became cautious.
“That girl almost lost her life. Do you think the child is fine?” Lingan said before he left. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, his little lie would be exposed.
Hearing that the child was gone, Fu Yunian’s heart ached. Even though Su Yu did not admit that the child was his, he still believed that she was lying.
Fu Yunian felt like he was being ridiculous. He had originally urged her to have an abortion, but now that the child was gone, why did he feel so sorrowful!
At this thought, he couldn’t help but give Su Yu a phone call. After realizing that he had been blocked, he felt he had done a ridiculous thing. He risked his life to rush into the fire to save her, for what? Being blocked by her?

As he thought about this, he couldn’t accept it. So, he went to find the nurse and borrowed her phone to call her.
“Hello, who is this?” Su Yu’s familiar voice sounded from the other end of the phone. This made Fu Yunian calm down and his bad mood disappeared.
“Su Yu, are you all right?” He asked tentatively. He was worried that if he didn’t pay attention, he would anger her again.
When Su Yu heard his voice, she was caught off guard. This number did not belong to him. She suddenly remembered that she had blocked his number last time. No wonder he called her from an unknown number.
“I’m fine. Thank you for saving me,” Su Yu said gently as she held back the sadness in her heart.
This time, she wasn’t arrogant or unreasonable. Instead, she responded gently, like she was responding to an old friend.
“Don’t be sad about the child… blame me for not noticing earlier,” Fu Yunian comforted, afraid that she was still upset about the child.
Su Yu was confused. The child was fine? Why would she be upset?
But, she didn’t want him to ask too much about the child, so she could only respond, “Yes, I’m fine.”
His voice was so gentle that she didn’t know what to say.
Thinking of the bank card, Fu Yunian added, “You don’t have to give me the card. Saving you is what I should do. If it were anyone else, I would have done the same.”
He didn’t save her for money. Instead, he rushed into the fire because he was being worried and scared. Perhaps, he had always had her in his heart, but he didn’t want to admit it.

At the mention of the card, Su Yu came to her senses, “The court gave me this card when we got divorced. I didn’t touch it at all. This time, you saved me, so I’ll return the money to you. Then, we won’t owe each other anything.”
She almost fell for his gentleness again. But, thanks to the mention of the card, Su Yu finally remembered why she gave him the card.

It sounded like she didn’t want to have anything to do with him. Fu Yunian was a little angry, “Do you really want to be a total stranger with me?”

“It’s not about if I want or not. It’s just there’s no reason for us to cross each other’s paths anymore. I’m going to take my medicine now, so I won’t talk to you anymore. Take care.”
Su Yu laughed bitterly. They should have stopped crossing each other’s paths a long time ago.. After finishing her words, she hung up the phone, not giving him a chance to reply.
