Chapter 1642 The Same Scene, Different Choices
However, reality quickly pulled her thoughts back: "Chen Xuan, stop it! You know who Shi Jie is, he's someone you can't afford to offend!"
Chen Xuan, you've got a bit of manliness, but you're just a retired soldier, powerless. You can't compare to Xu Shi Jie.
"Hmph!"
Chen Xuan lightly shook his head, "I can't be bothered to talk nonsense with you, I have important matters to attend to."
He turned and walked downstairs.
He had also remembered that he seemed to have encountered Su Yunxi on the floor below.
"Chen Xuan, stop right there! Take us out quickly, otherwise my Shi Jie will get you fired!" Li Jia Jia roared.
"Idiot!"
Chen Xuan cursed, turned, and walked into the stairwell.
Behind him, Li Jia Jia and Xu Shi Jie were furious.
However, the flames quickly swept over them, and they could no longer worry about anything else, fleeing in a panic.
...
In a room downstairs.
Flames raged everywhere, and black smoke billowed.
Su Yunxi's face was pale, covering her mouth with a wet cloth, only daring to call for help occasionally!
"Help!"
She stumbled to the door, finally seeing hope for escape. But just then, a burning cabinet beside her suddenly crashed down.
"Ah!"
Fortunately, Su Yunxi dodged quickly and was not seriously injured!
But the cabinet blocked the exit, and despair filled her eyes.
What should she do?
"Help—"
At this moment, Su Yunxi seemed to have no other good options besides calling for help.
But would calling for help really work?
She looked back and saw that the flames behind her had already ignited other things in the room. The fire was getting bigger and bigger, rapidly spreading towards her.
She was in a desperate situation!
At the same time.
Chen Xuan had just come from the stairs to this floor. There were many rooms here, but which one was it?
Just as Chen Xuan was hesitating, a cry for help suddenly rang out.
Chen Xuan's eyes lit up, this voice was too familiar!
It was Su Yunxi's voice!
If Su Yunxi were to be burned to death here, Su Yunxi in reality would probably be finished. Chen Xuan could not tolerate this.
Following the sound, Chen Xuan dashed over.
He finally reached the door of a room. Flames gushed out from the gap under the door, indicating how bad the situation inside was.
"Are you Su Yunxi?"
"Yes... it's me, who are you?"
"Move aside a bit, I'll save you! I'm afraid of hurting you."
Su Yunxi was puzzled. Who was the person outside, and how did they know her?
But at this moment, she couldn't think about it any longer and quickly moved aside.
After preparing herself, she said, "I'm ready!"
Hearing Su Yunxi's words, Chen Xuan suddenly charged forward and kicked the door open.
In the raging flames, Chen Xuan seemed to have a halo around him at this moment.
Su Yunxi looked at Chen Xuan with admiration in her eyes.
"Yunxi, where are you?" Chen Xuan looked around.
"I'm here."
Su Yunxi stood up.
But just then, the burning ceiling suddenly fell, and Su Yunxi, seeing this, let out a scream and instinctively covered her head.
However, after a moment, she was not hit. Su Yunxi then slowly opened her eyes, looked back, and saw Chen Xuan standing beside her, his arms spread out to protect her.
"Are you okay?"
Su Yunxi quickly asked.
"I'm fine, I'm wearing a protective suit. Let's get out quickly."
Chen Xuan grabbed Su Yunxi's hand and rushed out of the room.
There weren't as many flammable materials in the corridor, and the fire wasn't as intense, allowing them to breathe.
Chen Xuan, holding Su Yunxi's hand, walked towards the stairwell. He suddenly noticed Su Yunxi looking at him continuously and frowned, "Yunxi, why are you looking at me?"
"I feel like you look very familiar, like I've seen you somewhere before."
Su Yunxi said blankly.
Many people pursued her, but she never paid them any mind, even resisting them. Yet this guy called her Yunxi one after another and held her hand, but she not only didn't feel disgusted, but felt a sense of closeness, as if they were old friends.
"We've met many times, and I know a lot about you, but you don't know me."
"You're bragging. How could you know so much about me?"
"Your name is Su Yunxi, your family is from the provincial capital, and you also have connections to the capital..."
Hearing this, Su Yunxi was not surprised. With her family background, it wouldn't be difficult for someone to investigate: "Continue!"
"Your birthday is..."
"Your favorite fruit is strawberries."
"Your favorite Western dish is sirloin steak, and your favorite Chinese dish is hot pot, and you can't eat it without spice."
Chen Xuan's words made Su Yunxi's eyes widen gradually, revealing a hint of disbelief.
He knew all this?
But what Chen Xuan said next made Su Yunxi's expression completely change.
"Your measurements are 84, 61, 90."
"You have a red mole on your left buttock."
"You..."
Su Yunxi screamed, "That's enough!"
She could somewhat understand that he knew her measurements, as she had custom-made clothes. However, a mole on her left buttock was not something ordinary people would know.
"Do you believe me now?"
"I believe you. How do you know all this?"
"I've traveled back in time, and you are my wife."
Chen Xuan chuckled.
"You con artist!"
Su Yunxi pouted. This guy was talking nonsense, but Su Yunxi didn't dislike him at all. Instead, she felt a peculiar sensation.
"Stop the nonsense, let's hurry."
"Let's go."
Chen Xuan pulled Su Yunxi's hand and walked down the stairs.
But just then, someone grabbed Chen Xuan's leg: "Chen Xuan, save us..."
Chen Xuan looked down and saw that it was Li Jia Jia who had grabbed his leg. However, her leg was pinned down by something, making her unable to move. She also had extensive burns, and her entire face was blackened.
"How did you become like this? Why are you alone?"
Chen Xuan looked around, but couldn't find Xu Shi Jie.
"To save my life, Xu Shi Jie abandoned me and ran away. Chen Xuan, please save me, I'm begging you! I know I was wrong, I shouldn't have betrayed you!" Li Jia Jia pleaded desperately.
If Chen Xuan didn't save Li Jia Jia, she would likely die here.
"Is she your friend? Regardless of any grudges, human life is paramount. Hurry up and save her," Su Yunxi said.
After a moment of hesitation, Chen Xuan nodded, "Alright."
In this world, Chen Xuan only had a strong physique and no profound strength. He and Su Yunxi struggled with great effort to move the boxes, allowing Li Jia Jia to crawl out from under them.
Li Jia Jia, having narrowly escaped death, was about to say words of apology to Chen Xuan. But as she turned, she saw Chen Xuan holding Su Yunxi's hand and continuing downstairs.
"Let's go."
Li Jia Jia looked at Chen Xuan holding another woman's hand, and her inherent jealousy made her feel uncomfortable.
She limped along behind them.
"I can't anymore, the fire ahead is too big, we can't get down."
Chen Xuan realized the fire ahead was too intense. Rushing in blindly could be dangerous.
