Online Game: Evil Dragon Against The Heaven - 277

“Sister…Big Brother…take me away from here… okay? I don’t like…this place.” The weak girl on the bed spoke with a frail voice.

“Mmm.” Ye Tian Xie complied with her wish, gently lifting her body that was as light as cotton and holding her lovingly in his arms. His movements were as delicate as if he were carrying a newborn baby. He softly asked, “Then where do you want to go?”

Leaning against his chest, with her small head resting on his chest, Chenxue could feel the sound of his heartbeat resonating through her weak heart. The feeling of being protected was like a dream, making her want to immerse herself in it forever. This feeling had only ever appeared in her dreams before. She spoke softly, “Big Brother… I want to go to your house… to see where you live… okay?”

“Okay… of course, we’ll go right now.”

Zuo Po Jun, who had just finished making the call, walked in and nodded at Ye Tian Xie. “Second Brother, everything is being prepared. It should be ready soon.”

“…Let’s go home first, to my place.” He held Chenxue in his arms and walked toward the door.

“Alright!” Zuo Po Jun opened the door, his gaze filled with complicated emotions as he looked at Ye Tian Xie and the fragile girl in his arms. For such a girl, it was no surprise that he would act this way. His heart could be harder than anyone’s, yet sometimes softer than anyone’s as well.

Upon returning home, as soon as the door opened, Su Fei Fei anxiously rushed over and pouted, “Tian Xie, where did you go… huh?” Seeing the girl in Ye Tian Xie’s arms, she showed a surprised expression. Immediately, she noticed that the girl’s face was frighteningly pale—as white as paper.

“Hello, Sister.” Chenxue gave a weak smile and greeted Su Fei Fei softly.

“Hello, little sister… and you are…” Su Fei Fei asked, puzzled.

Before the door could automatically close, it was pushed open again. Zuo Po Jun, Murong Qiu Shui and Ran Chenxin, whose face was filled with deep nervousness and unease, walked in. Seeing them, Su Fei Fei’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Brother Zuo, Qiu Shui… and Chenxin, you… why are you all here?”

Since she had started living with Ye Tian Xie, apart from Xiao Xi, no one had ever been allowed into their home. Usually, no one visited either. Seeing Zuo Po Jun and Murong Qiu Shui was not surprising, but Chenxin’s presence was unexpected.

“Heh, Miss Su.” Zuo Po Jun grinned and greeted her, his tone filled with unspoken meaning.

“Sharing the same room, eating together, flying as a pair… such enviable bliss. Poor me, Murong Qiu Shui, blessed with unmatched beauty and unparalleled talent, yet still unable to find someone who can capture both my body and soul… Sigh, is heaven jealous of my beauty?” Murong Qiu Shui tilted his head back, letting out a sigh of self-pity.

Su Fei Fei’s face turned bright red, and then she became angry and embarrassed. She lowered her voice and angrily muttered, “What nonsense are you two talking about! Hmph! I’m not going to bother with you… Chenxin, how did you…”

“Sister Fei Fei, I…” Seeing Su Fei Fei in the real world for the first time, Chenxin felt both joy and nervousness. But most of all, she was weighed down by the sadness brought by Chenxue’s condition.

Su Fei Fei smiled softly and walked to her side. She leaned in close and teased in a playful whisper, “Hehe, did that big bad guy Tian Xie use some tricks to lure you here? I’m telling you, he’s bad—really bad. He’s the type who tricks girls and loves taking advantage of them… He didn’t… do anything to you, did he?”

“No, no!” Ran Chenxin shook her head hurriedly. Being here made her feel an indescribable sense of nervousness and guilt… because this was the world that belonged to Ye Tian Xie and Su Fei Fei. Would her presence disturb their peaceful life?

“Brother Tian Xie is a very good person. He saved me…” Ran Chenxin softly explained.

“Chenxin’s sister has a terminal illness, and Second Brother wants to save her… In short, the situation is very complicated. We’ll explain everything later. But no matter what Second Brother decides to do next, don’t stop him, okay?” Zuo Po Jun sighed and said softly.

Su Fei Fei was taken aback. She turned to look at Ye Tian Xie and then nodded softly.

“Big Brother… your home… is so big and so beautiful.” Chenxue’s eyes wandered around, taking in every corner. Compared to the tiny space where she had lived, this place was so spacious—it was like something out of her dreams.

“If you like it here, when you get better, you can come here with your sister anytime you want.” Ye Tian Xie whispered gently into her ear.

“Then… if I want… to live here with my sister forever, is that okay? There are so many rooms here.” Her bright, star-like eyes blinked, even though they were dimmed by her illness.

“Of course, you can. When you get better, you can have anything you want.” Ye Tian Xie answered without hesitation. With a promise as heavy as a thousand pounds, he tried his best to keep the flame of life in her heart burning brightly.

“Big Brother… you… are so good… You are the best person… in the world…”

A good person? Ye Tian Xie could only give her a gentle smile. He never considered himself a good person. There were many things—even bad things—that had to be done. And some good things… he could choose to ignore. But since he was a good person in this girl’s eyes, then… he would be a good person for her.

【Looking for a friend, looking for a friend, found a good friend, salute and shake hands…】

Zuo Po Jun’s phone ringtone instantly stunned everyone in the room. Under the extremely strange gazes of Su Fei Fei and Ran Chenxin, Zuo Po Jun answered the call without even blushing, had a brief conversation, and then quickly walked over to Ye Tian Xie’s side. “Second Brother, everything is ready. In seventeen minutes, there’s a flight to Wall City in America. All the necessary documents, identities, and visas for you and Chenxue are ready. You can go directly to the boarding gate… Time is too tight to arrange a private jet, so you’ll have to take a commercial flight… South of Wall City is the base where America is constructing the interstellar flight to Lyle Star. It won’t be hard to find. But the security there… is beyond what words like 『tight』can describe… Second Brother, you must be careful. If you need any help, contact me at any time.” He paused, then raised his head and looked directly at Ye Tian Xie, saying, “No matter what, Second Brother, Old Fourth and I will support any decision you make… We also believe that there’s nothing in this world you can’t accomplish. This time, maybe you’ll go straight to Lyle Star and it might be a long time before you come back. Don’t worry, we’ll protect everything here and wait for you to bring a healthy Chenxue back.”

Chenxue’s condition could no longer afford any delay. Every minute and every second wasted brought her closer to death. Leaving here and heading straight to America—the best result would be to go directly to Lyle Star but no one knew when he would return… But for this life that should not be lost, he put aside all his hesitations.

“Chenxue, we’re leaving now. Look at how worried Big Brother is for you… You have to be strong and hold on so that we can all see you come back healthy, okay?”

“Mmm…”

He gave Zuo Po Jun a nod and Zuo Po Jun led the way out. Ye Tian Xie walked up to Su Fei Fei his face filled with apologies. “Fei Fei, I have to leave for a while. It might be a long time… or maybe… a short while. Po Jun and Qiu Shui will have someone protect this place. Don’t be afraid… and take good care of Xiao Xi, okay?”

Even now, Su Fei Fei still didn’t fully understand the situation. She only knew that he was going to save the girl in his arms who barely had any signs of life. Remembering Zuo Po Jun’s words, she gently nodded. “Tian Xie… come back soon.”

Ye Tian Xie nodded, then turned to Ran Chenxin and said, “Chenxin, stay here for now. Wait here… and trust that Chenxue will return to health.”

Without waiting for a response, he quickly stepped out of the door.

Su Fei Fei and Ran Chenxin chased after him, silently watching as the helicopter took off and quickly disappeared from view. They stood there, speechless for a long time.

Since she had started living with Ye Tian Xie, Su Fei Fei had never been away from him. Clinging to his side had become her habit without her even realizing it. Now, with him leaving in such a hurry without any warning, she felt as if she had lost something incredibly precious. Her heart felt empty.

Ran Chenxin’s eyes and heart trembled with warmth… Regardless of whether they could really reach Lyle Star, regardless of whether Chenxue could hold on until then, and regardless of whether she would return as healthy as they all hoped, the fact that he went to America without hesitation, risking everything to give Chenxue the chance to live—that kindness alone was something they could never repay, even in a lifetime.

Capital Airport.

“Second Brother… the helicopter can only stop here. You and Chenxue should go in. Someone will meet you inside… The plane will take off as soon as possible.” Zuo Po Jun’s voice was heavy. This area prohibited flying objects from approaching, and being able to land here was already an enormous privilege.

Ye Tian Xie responded with a nod. Holding Chenxue, he jumped out of the helicopter and headed straight for the entrance.

Watching Ye Tian Xie’s  departing figure, Zuo Po Jun leaned back and sighed deeply. “Old Fourth, there are some things I really can’t say in front of Second Brother, let alone in front of Chenxue… Otherwise… The interstellar flight project is a massive undertaking that the entire world is watching. Although I always believe that Second Brother can do anything… this time, can he really make America launch the flight ahead of schedule for him… or even arrange a private voyage just for him?”

“That idea is too naive. Do you think it’s possible?” Murong Qiu Shui shook his head.

“No.” Zuo Po Jun shook his head decisively.

“Second Brother doesn’t want to give up the last bit of hope… That girl is not only Ran Qingsheng’s daughter, but she also possesses a charm that makes her worthy of Second Brother’s efforts. I don’t know what will happen… but I’m certain that if Second Brother reaches there… that place is going to be in for a lot of trouble.”

Zuo Po Jun nodded in agreement. If Ye Tian Xie was determined to do something, he would use any means necessary to achieve his goal.

“But there’s one thing that has been overlooked… something I’ve never mentioned… It’s better to let Big Sister say it.” Murong Qiu Shui looked out of the cabin with a distant gaze and spoke softly.
