Qin Zerong will never forget that day, when he returned to the old warehouse with the sweet-scented osmanthus cake that the young man wanted, what he was greeted was the helpless silence of the crowd and the raging fire.
Qin Zerong jumped out of the car directly, his mind was in chaos, only the three words Bai Xiyu were left to turn back and forth, and suddenly there was nothing, only the whistling wind beside his ears, Qin Zerong was shocked by the explosion sound of being burned by the fire in front of him, and rushed into the warehouse desperately as if he had lost his soul.
"Young Master Qin—"
The subordinates hurried forward, frantically holding Qin Zerong tightly. It was a big mistake for them to fail to protect Bai Xiyu, and now young master Qin must not let another accident happen.
"Let go!" Qin Zerong seemed to be a bit crazy at this moment, he yelled at the subordinates who suppressed him: "I tell you to let go—"
However, no one listened to him. Someone said to him in his ear: "Your useless Young Master Qin, they should have planted a bomb on Mr. Bai. Mr. Bai...he can't survive."
"Impossible, impossible..." Qin Zerong kept shaking his head, lost his mind, and suddenly turned his head and shouted at the people around him: "Help people! What are you still standing here for?" ? Save him!"
A ruthless voice that seemed to come from hell whispered in his ear; "Young Master Qin, we sent people in at the beginning of the explosion, but we didn't find Mr. Bai."
"Xiyu..." Qin Zerong fell to his knees, and finally couldn't help crying: "Xiyu, I bought you an osmanthus cake, can you come out and have a look?"
Qin Zerong's voice gradually decreased, and after a long time, Qin Zerong murmured again: "Bai Xiyu, you lied to me..."
Seeing Young Master Qin's appearance, the subordinates let go of their hands one after another, and took a few steps back, wanting to leave their own space for Young Master Qin.
But what they never expected was that as soon as they retreated, Qin Zerong immediately got up and rushed into the warehouse. Reflecting the warm fire, Qin Zerong's expression was calm, as if he had the determination to die .
Seeing that the situation was not good, the leader behind him hurried to catch up and slashed with a knife, Qin Zerong fell down.
The leader carried Qin Zerong on his back and said to the people behind him: "Go back."

A few days later, Qin Zerong was lying on the hospital bed with a haggard look and exhaustion between his brows.
A young man stood by his bed.
Qin Zerong lowered his head and asked, "You saw him that day, didn't you?" His voice was hoarse and calm, but his sadness could not be concealed.

After a while, the young man replied: "Yes."
As if it was the expected answer, Qin Zerong asked again: "What is he like?"
"Mr. Bai... When we went in, we only saw a few burning limbs."
After a long period of time, Qin Zerong didn't speak again, and the young man called out worriedly: "Young Master Qin?"
"I see, you go out." Qin Zerong said lightly.
"Yes, Young Master Qin."
After the young man left, Qin Zerong sat motionless for more than two hours. Memories flooded into his mind as early as the night of New Year's Eve three years ago. Those memories came suddenly and violently. In his arms, he wrote love poems for him in poor foreign languages, and he also cooked for him and bought sweet-scented osmanthus cakes for him, but in the end he couldn't keep him.

In the first month after Bai Xiyu left, Qin Zerong wiped out Qin Erye's group after he was discharged from the hospital. Standing in front of Boss Ge and Qin Erye, he asked, "What is the monitor on his body?" Who of you took it off?"
Qin Erye naturally didn't know that Bai Xiyu had a monitor on him, he was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed again: "You can't even find him with a monitor, my good nephew! Hahahahaha... "
Qin Erye's reaction made Qin Zerong know the answer immediately.
But now Qin Zerong seemed to come to a more terrifying conclusion. This conclusion made him pale instantly, his body shook slightly, and then he straightened his back and walked out of the room with great strides.
From now on, in the endless night, Qin Zerong would always wonder whether Bai Xiyu pulled that button off by himself. If so, Bai Xiyu knew everything, and he said those words to him on purpose, but why did he How to do this
Did he not believe that he could save him, or did he think that he no longer wanted him
Also, if it wasn't for his carelessness, how could Bai Xiyu be taken away by Qin Erye at that time
He will not let Qin Erye and others go, and he will not let himself go either.

In the second month after Bai Xiyu left, Qin Zerong went to the mountain where Bai Xiyu used to support education, to visit the children he had taught for him.
Since Bai Xiyu left here, there is no teacher to teach them, but these children still come here every day to review what Teacher Bai has taught them.
Seeing an outsider coming, and this outsider was related to their teacher Bai, the children gathered around one after another, asking Qin Zerong for news about their teacher Bai.
The little squad leader looked even more aggrieved, and asked, "Why hasn't Teacher Bai come back yet?"
Qin Zerong opened his mouth and answered the class leader's question after a while: "Teacher Bai may not come back."
He tried his best to give these children a comforting smile, but it was difficult to even twitch the corners of his mouth.
"Why? Teacher Bai clearly promised us that he would come back before he left!" the children asked him with wide eyes.
Yes, before he left, he also promised me that he would not leave again.
Qin Zerong stretched out his hand to touch the squad leader's head: "I'll take you to see him."
——
Holding flowers in their hands, the children stood in a row in front of Bai Xiyu's tombstone, their small eyes were red from crying.
"Thank you, teacher." The squad leader stepped forward and placed the flowers in his hand in front of Bai Xiyu's tomb, and then led the students behind him to bow deeply to Bai Xiyu's tombstone.
Standing behind these children, Qin Zerong, with the spring breeze gently blowing over his face, suddenly felt that there was no hope for this life, and the future world would be barren.
This life, it is like this.
