Qin Chu felt the back of his neck go numb as he was getting up and walking towards the door. He had just enough time to whirl around and glance over at Rick in disbelief. "Rick, you…"
However, before he could finish, he passed out and fell to the floor.
"I'm sorry, I can't watch you pursue your own death. I made a promise to Huo Mian that I'd keep you safe," Rick murmured to himself as he stood over Qin Chu.
Using anesthesia on Qin Chu was not his first choice, but it was the only option at hand. Qin Chu was too stubborn, it looked like he was willing to risk his own life just to take down Huo Siqian.
Now that Rick was also in love, he understood Qin Chu. Qin Chu was determined to ensure Huo Mian's life would be free of troubles in the future, even if it meant that he needed to smash himself into pieces.
This was all because Qin Chu loved Huo Mian dearly; he never wanted to see her in harm's way, not even a little.
