After nightfall, the Tibetan region was even colder than during the day, the bitter wind scraping the tent, whistling, sweeping across the man’s skin, like an icy knife. He Yu was sitting quietly on his chair, he had not taken a break from last night, and his rescue suit was covered with wet mud because he had participated in a day of rescue. On his cold white face, his pupils were dark and deep, with red bloodshot balls next to his dark pupils. He looked tired and listless, his eyebrows shallowly knitted, all without the usual charm.

“Mr. He, you should take a rest first.” Kane had never seen such a He Yu and he knew that something was wrong with his boss’s marriage. These few months, he had been working to numb himself and was not having a good time. But even when he was tired, he always kept his demeanor. And today, he did not keep it up, sitting there like a real person, with flesh and blood.

He Yu did not raise his eyes, his thick eyelashes covered the look in his eyes, he smelled the fishy smell of dirt and blood mixed together in the air, the sound of the casualties wailing in his ears, He Yu suddenly opened his mouth and said.

“I wonder where she’s hiding.”

It was a shock to Kane’s heart, staring at his boss, and for a while he was speechless. After saying that, He Yu took his gloves and patted the mud on his hands, as if talking to himself, but also seemed to be chatting with Kane.

“On the way here, I was thinking, I can’t divorce her. I have to keep her with me no matter what it takes, I can’t leave her. But after I came, I thought, as long as she can let me see her when I want to, she can do whatever she wants.”

“The prime rescue time is 72 hours.” Kane said as this was said by the rescue team that He Yu had asked when the two were on the plane.

“Yeah.” He Yu shallowly responded, after a while, he smiled, but there was still no light in his eyes.

“Do you have someone you can’t leave?” He asked.

Kane was assigned to him by He Fengjia when he graduated from school and founded EV. He was sent over by his grandfather to be his assistant. Being able to be noticed by He Fengjia, Kane must also be an elite individual. He studied in a foreign university, with top-notch ability and a surprisingly high emotional intelligence.

However, the communication between him and He Yu was only limited to work, with the occasional interlude of He Yu’s personal life. He had never taken the initiative to talk to him, especially like today.

“Yes. Family members as well as loved ones ……,” Kane said.

“I left the country right after high school.” After hearing Kane’s words, He Yu said in a calm tone, “I live on my own, I don’t need anyone to live well. Work, life, I take care all by myself, even my grandfather, my mother, I don’t need their company.”

Loneliness was etched in his bones, from childhood to his adult life, He Yu did not make friends with anyone, nor did he ever let anyone know what was on his mind. He was a man without a weakness, but now he had one.

“But Qiuzi is just different.” He Yu said in a shallow voice.

Su Qiuzi was his lover, she had only been with him for a very small amount of time, yet the love melted into the marrow of his bones, so that when he was separated from her again, he would have to be skinned and boned first to eliminate her traces from his body.

Even if it was eliminated, it still left a permanent imprint, which He Yu felt during his marriage with Su Qiuzi.

He was not too keen to leave her behind, he just wanted her to be happy. However how can anyone be so selfless in love? He didn’t want to be a courteous gentleman, he just wanted to be a normal flesh and blood person, keeping her confined to his life and giving Su Qiuzi his all.

Without this incident, would he be so thorough and let Su Qiuzi really fade away from his life?

No.
