Because of the seepage, many areas of the warehouse were wet, but only the area around Gu Nanqiao was dry. Xu Shuo looked at the water on the ground, knowing there was no other choice but to fight for their lives.
He had just thought about dragging his coat into the water, but before he could act, he saw Huo Jingting already rolling out, holding Gu Nanqiao in his arms.
He wrapped a wet coat around her, holding her with one hand and protecting his own head with the other, rolling across the fiery circle on the ground with his entire back.
As they rolled out, his body caught fire, too, but because of the wet coat, Gu Nanqiao was unharmed except for a scalded hand.
Huo Jingting pushed her to the side and rolled a few times on the ground himself until the fire on his body was extinguished.
But the unhealed wounds on his back split open due to this action, and now, they were burned beyond recognition.
