    Chapter 106: Surviving the Calamity

    It was freezing cold, and Du Li was wearing very thin clothes, his lips were dark, and the expression on his face was listless, clearly showing that he didn’t want to live.

    He hooked his lips into a cool smile, “Xu Chongming, as expected, I still can’t trust you.”

    Chi Ye and the bodyguards rushed in. Chi Ye’s voice trembled, “What have you done to Su Shi?”

    Du Li said nonchalantly: “Don’t worry, he’s not dead, just gave him some medicine.”

    Chi Ye asked, trying to calm himself, “What do you want?”

    Du Li played with his fingers, and said casually: “I only asked Xu Chongming to come, you came uninvited.”

    Chi Ye: “His boyfriend is me now!”

    “But, Xu Chongming still can’t forget your boyfriend.”

    Chi Ye didn’t want to waste time like this. Every minute Su Shi spent on the edge of the roof added to the danger, so he gave Xu Chongming a look.

    Xu Chongming said: “It’s me, Xu Chongming, who let you down. Let Su Shi go. Come at me for whatever you want.”

    Du Li clapped his hands, then spat. His beautiful eyes were full of disgust, “How affectionate, but disgusting.”

    Xu Chongming’s eyes darkened, “What exactly do you want? Just say it.”

    Du Li became agitated, “I begged you to help me in the beginning, but you refused. If I hadn’t been locked up, how could my grandmother have died?”

    “All the mistakes are mine. It’s my fault for being too heartless to you, but Su Shi is innocent.”

    Du Li couldn’t help but want to cry.

    “He’s innocent? How is he innocent? My grandmother almost knelt down in the police station to beg him to give me a break, but he didn’t soften his heart at all.”

    Chi Ye: “That’s because you wanted to hurt Su Shi first.”

    “That’s right, but so what? I said he’s not innocent, then he’s not innocent.”

    It seemed that this person really didn’t want to live anymore, grabbing people and biting them, wanting to drag Su Shi down with him.

    “Then what exactly do you want me to do? I’m right in front of you now, do whatever you want. You let Su Shi go,” Xu Chongming said.

    Du Li said sharply: “You only have him in your eyes! In that case, I want you to kneel down and apologize to me.”

    Chi Ye glanced at Xu Chongming, waiting to see his reaction.

    Xu Chongming replied, “Okay.”

    Then he bent his knees and knelt down.

    Du Li controlled Su Shi’s life and death, so he had the highest initiative.

    But the more obedient Xu Chongming was, the more resentful Du Li became.

    How could there be such a big difference between people?

    Everyone loved Su Shi, but him? He couldn’t get even a little bit of Xu Chongming’s attention even if he wagged his tail and begged.

    Anyway, he didn’t want to live anymore, so let’s all be destroyed together.

    “You once said that a man has gold under his knees, but now you are willing to kneel for Su Shi.”

    Du Li’s eyes were full of jealousy. “Slap yourself a few more times, until I’m satisfied.”

    Xu Chongming did as he was told, slapping himself in the face one after another, until his face was numb.

    “Very good.” Du Li’s tone was full of sarcasm.

    Chi Ye was in no mood to listen anymore, pulled Xu Chongming up, and took a few steps forward, “You can drag Xu Chongming to his death, give me back Su Shi.”

    Du Li said excitedly: “Stop, otherwise, I will push him down now.”

    Du Li had already put one hand on Su Shi’s shoulder. At this distance, with just a slight touch, Su Shi would fall like a sandbag.

    Chi Ye had to stop.

    Xu Chongming was frightened. Chi Ye’s crazy behavior just now scared him so much that his legs trembled.

    No matter how high-sounding he said he could exchange himself for Su Shi, when he really walked towards the edge of the roof, the fear of death rushed towards him, making him want to shrink back uncontrollably.

    Xu Chongming had to admit that he was a coward.

    The roof was not big, and there were no extra obstacles, so there was no way to go around from other places.

    Su Shi remained motionless, lying quietly, wearing the black down jacket that Chi Ye bought.

    The longer it took, the more worried Chi Ye became.

    He really wanted to take a gamble and rush over to hug Su Shi, but Du Li was handcuffed to him.

    At this moment, the sound of police sirens downstairs was getting closer and closer.

    Before this, Chi Ye had asked the bodyguards to call the police. 110, 119, and 120 were all approaching the Pearl Tower.

    But the sound of the police sirens stimulated Du Li.

    Du Li didn’t want to be caught again. He suddenly said excitedly and desperately: “Grandma is dead, I’m going to atone to her.”

    He looked at the sky one last time, and then fell straight back.

    Su Shi, who was handcuffed to him, was dragged down with him.

    Chi Ye’s heart seemed to stop for a moment, and his body was faster than his brain, flying straight over.

    Su Shi didn’t know when he woke up. At the moment of falling, he was able to reach up and let Chi Ye grab him.

    Half of Chi Ye’s body was hanging outside. Xu Chongming’s pupils dilated instantly, and he and the bodyguards rushed up.

    Xu Chongming felt that if he hadn’t caught Su Shi, Chi Ye would have jumped down without hesitation.

    “Su Shi, hold on tight to me, don’t let go.” Chi Ye used so much force that his entire face and neck turned red.

    “Chi Ye.” Su Shi’s voice was very soft. Looking down, the fear of being suspended in the high air made his heart tremble.

    Chi Ye: “Don’t look down, be good, look at me, hold on a little longer.”

    Then, Du Li started to exert force from below, trying to drag Su Shi to his death with him.

    The skin on the back of Su Shi’s hand was scratched by the handcuffs.

    Afterwards, there was a distant “bang”, like the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

    Du Li had fallen down at some point, smashed to pieces.

    The handcuffs Du Li used were certainly not the kind used by the police. They were simulated fetish handcuffs, which were larger than ordinary ones.

    Su Shi’s hands were small, and he was born with soft bones. These handcuffs couldn’t hold him, and they slipped out of his hands with the weight.

    Su Shi didn’t expect that these hands would save his life.

    He didn’t know when it started, but there were cool things falling on Su Shi’s face.

    It was snow, the snow that Su Shi had always wanted to see.

    Unexpectedly, it started to snow at such an inopportune time.

    Just when Su Shi’s hand was about to be torn off, he was pulled up by Chi Ye and the others working together.

    Su Shi fell on Chi Ye’s body.

    His body was finally no longer suspended in the air, and he couldn’t step on solid ground. The feeling of surviving a catastrophe made Su Shi want to cry.

    Chi Ye helped Su Shi sit up, and pressed his forehead against his.

    Tears were flowing silently. At the moment when Su Shi fell, Chi Ye had thought about just following him down.

    Thinking about it now, it was all lingering fear and the joy of regaining what he had lost.

    Su Shi looked blankly at Chi Ye’s tearful face, “Why are you crying?”

    Chi Ye actually cried out in public, hugging Su Shi tightly, using the strength he wanted to clamp the other person into his body, constantly saying: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry.”

    Su Shi followed with a sore nose, hugged Chi Ye’s head and comforted, “It’s okay, I’m fine, aren’t I?”
