Ye Chen's anger

Xiang Yin's face was pale, his breathing weak, and his arms were reduced to mere stumps.

"I, I might not make it." Xiang Yin forced a smile onto his face and said with difficulty.

"Don't, don't talk nonsense! You will be fine!" No matter how arrogant Zhang Chang was, he couldn't help but cry at this moment; if it weren't for him, Xiang Yin wouldn't be in this state.

Zhang Chang hurriedly took out healing medicine and poured it down Xiang Yin's throat.

The medicine flowed down Xiang Yin's throat, but leaked right back out from the hole in his chest.

Ye Chen's hand, holding the medicine, stopped; he realized that Xiang Yin could no longer be saved.

Xiang Yin looked at Zhang Chang with deep affection in his eyes and said tenderly, "Actually, back in high school, I fell in love with you the first time I saw you. Later, I studied hard and got into the same university as you. Back then, my family was poor, so I could only watch you from afar. I watched you for four years. After graduation, when I heard you were preparing for postgraduate entrance exams, I joined you."

"Later, I worked hard to get into the same company as you. That was when you finally learned my name. I always pretended to accidentally mention our high school and university to make you notice me. Sure enough, that method was effective. Afterward, we grew closer, but when I expressed my love for you, you always pretended not to understand. I knew that back then, you didn't like me yet."

"But I wasn't afraid. I could wait, I could work hard. I worked desperately, buying a house and a car, all just to give you a good life in the future. I could work hard, I could wait, I could work hard enough so that you would look at me more, and wait until you fell in love with me. Just like when I went to university and took the postgraduate exams, I could keep waiting. When I was ready to sincerely confess to you..."

"The world suddenly changed and became chaotic, but I wasn't afraid. As long as you were there, I wasn't afraid of anything. I would still work hard, work hard enough to be able to protect you. Later, cough, cough!"

As Xiang Yin spoke, he spat out another mouthful of blood.

"Don't say any more, I know, I understand! I understand your feelings, I understand it all! Actually, I liked you in my heart too, but it was a chaotic time, and because everything was unstable, I didn't accept your love. I knew it all, sob, sob!" Zhang Chang said, crying as well.

A smile finally appeared on Xiang Yin's pale face. "Hehe, I thought you didn't like me because I wasn't good enough. Now that I know you like me too, I can leave in peace."

"No! You don't have to go! You are good enough! You don't have to go!"

Zhang Chang gripped Xiang Yin's arms tightly, his face already covered in tears.

"Don't cry. You know, the thing I can't stand the most is seeing you cry."

Zhang Chang nodded, choking back sobs, and wiped the tears from his eyes, but the tears were like beads from a broken string, impossible to stop.

"Ye Chen." Xiang Yin softly called out Ye Chen's name.

Even for Ye Chen, he couldn't help but have his eyes wet with tears at this moment.

"I'm here."

Xiang Yin smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Ye Chen, don't blame me. What I did before was just because I wanted to climb higher. Because my grandfather and my father were both soldiers, and they wanted me to become a soldier and be their pride. But later, I didn't listen to them, and I've always felt guilty about that. What I did was just to get ahead, to protect my country, and to become the pride they held in their hearts!"

"Now I can be considered to have died for the country. My father should be proud of me. Please go back and tell my father that his child, Zhang Qingshan, is also a hero, just like my great-grandfather. I sacrificed myself for the people. I believe he will be proud of me too!"

As he said this, a proud smile curled the corners of Xiang Yin's lips.

"Mm, rest assured, I will definitely pass it on to your father."

Ye Chen said, gripping the medal that belonged to Xiang Yin tightly.

"Mm, thank you. Actually, I am very satisfied, really. To be able to hear that the person I like likes me, and to be able to become my father's pride, I am very content. These were the two greatest dreams of my life. I didn't expect to fulfill both of them here. I am truly very lucky."

"Cough, cough!" Another mouthful of blood sprayed from Xiang Yin's mouth.

"Don't say any more! Don't say any more! Qingshan, don't say any more!"

Zhang Chang cradled Xiang Yin's face, speaking with a choked voice. At this moment, Zhang Chang was already crying into a tear-stained mess.

Zhang Zheng watched from the side, already shedding tears himself.

"Cough, cough!" Xiang Yin gasped for air and began to cough violently.

"Zhang Chang, I, I love you!"

After saying this, a smile curled the corners of Xiang Yin's lips, and with a satisfied expression on his face, he closed his eyes forever.

"Qingshan! Qingshan! Qingshan!" Zhang Chang shook Xiang Yin's body, calling his name incessantly. However, Xiang Yin never replied again.

Scenes of his past with Xiang Yin flashed constantly through Zhang Chang's mind.

When they first met at the company, Xiang Yin had said somewhat shyly, "Hello, my name is Zhang Qingshan!"

Back then, no matter when he saw Xiang Yin, there was always a warm smile on his face.

Whenever he called him Qingshan, Xiang Yin would always respond with a sweet "Hey."

Whenever he saw that smiling face of Xiang Yin's, Zhang Chang would always feel a sunshine-like warmth.

But this smile, he would never see it again.

Thinking of this, a sense of desolation welled up within him.

"Qingshan!" Zhang Chang let out a long wail to the sky, crying in agony.

Watching Zhang Chang's heartbroken state, Ye Chen felt very uneasy in his heart as well.

Zhang Zheng squatted down and quietly hugged Zhang Chang to give him some comfort.

He hadn't known that there was such a story between Zhang Chang and Xiang Yin.

The others witnessed this scene as well, and tears welled up in their eyes too.

Ye Chen turned to look at the remaining eight monsters, the fury in his heart reaching its peak!

"You! All of you deserve to die!"

Ye Chen gripped the Thunderclap Blade tightly and charged toward one of the monsters.

Trigger watched Ye Chen's icy eyes, which were filled with Killing Intent, and subconsciously stepped back.

A sense of fear welled up.

"It wasn't me who killed him! Why are you taking your anger out on me!"

Trigger said with a trembling voice.

"You, all of you deserve to die! Dark Ji! Blood Asura! Kill them for me!"

The two felt the anger in Ye Chen's heart, nodded, and charged toward the remaining monsters.

"Great Extinction!" Hum! The Thunderclap Blade slashed heavily onto Trigger's body.

"Thunder Movement Three Thousand!" "Heavenly Violent Thunder Lead!" "Myriad Thunderbolts!"

Ye Chen didn't pause for a second, landing one move after another on Trigger.

Trigger was beaten without any power to parry. He could only block constantly, passively taking the hits.

Jiamu, standing to the side, said weakly, "Brother Ye Chen looks so enraged, so furious."

Xuannü patted Jiamu's shoulder and smiled, "This is exactly where your Brother Ye Chen's charm lies."
