He Yan staggered to the side of the ship. He slowly closed his eyes as he tipped over the railing.?Perhaps this is the most suitable ending for someone like me...
...
On the other side, the explosion blocked off Mo Li and Quan Yu’s exit. Quan Yu used his arm to block the falling frame, afraid that it might hit Mo Li.
“Jesus Christ!” Mo Li gasped in a trembling voice when she saw the steel bar that pierced through Quan Yu’s shoulder. The sea level continued to rise. Mo Li used all her strength to push away the plank which landed on Quan Yu.
“This is just a minor wound... Don’t worry...”
“Why are you acting tough at a time like this?” As Mo Li bustled about him, Quan Yu suddenly pulled Mo Li into his arms and steadied her. “You need to stop moving, you’re injured too. Don’t worry, I’ll be fine. Plus Ah Si and Ah Zhong are rushing over.”
Mo Li felt warmth on her face. It was the blood from Quan Yu’s wound. “Hang in there... I need to stop the bleeding.”
Quan Yu’s voice was low and slow. “Li Li, I did not mean to lie to you. It was not my wish to not answer your calls, I didn’t want you to get worried....”
Mo Li closed his mouth. “Stop talking, you need to preserve your energy, especially considering your heart condition.” After a moment, Mo Li added, “I believe you.”
After getting the answer he was waiting for, Quan Yu closed his eyes.?I didn’t expect the bombs, I have miscalculated. Is this over for us? But it’s nice too. To die in her arms...
“Report, we’re 3 minutes away from the shipwreck.”
“Okay! Prepare for a rescue mission!” Mo Yun gripped his phone tightly. He kept sweating.?Just wait a little bit more, big brother is coming!?He was overseas working for 3 days, so he didn’t have his phone with him, he didn’t expect so many things to happen.

Jiang Yao and Mo Yi sat at home. They had no idea where their children had run off to recently.
“A few days ago, with the sinking of the Goddess of the Sea cruise ship, the police also managed to crack a large-scale sex-trading ring. The participants consist of a lot of rich business moguls and politicians. We shall anticipate big changes in the world...”
“These people have too much money, that’s why...”
“Speaking of, didn’t Mo Li say she was going on a cruise with her company? Do you remember the name of the cruise?”
historical
“It’s definitely not this! She’s too clever to fall for something like this.”
Jiang Yao and Mo Yi chatted. The news continued, “The celebrity, Pink Rabbit who was deemed to have committed suicide was found to have been sexually assaulted on this cruise 6 months ago... We will follow up on this report if we receive any new evidence. Thank you for watching.”
...
It had been 2 days since the tragedy on the Goddess of the Sea. Thankfully Mo Yun arrived in time or else they would all be dead.
Mo Li turned off the television, sat on the bed, and looked out the window. Quan Yu was seriously injured on the boat and he lost a lot of blood. Thankfully he was out of critical danger. Lu Xuan said that it was only a matter of time until he woke up.
Xiao Rui also came to the hospital to visit her and update her on the case. Everything seemed to be progressing in a good direction.
It was a shame that the key culprit He Yan had already killed himself. Plus that parting sentence... “There is a flower around you.” Mo Li would shiver whenever she thought about it.
“People will think the police have nothing to do if you come over daily like this.” Mo Yun frowned as he walked into Mo Li’s ward and saw Xiao Rui.?Why does this man always come to visit my sister?
“Oh, it’s just you...” Mo Li sighed.
“What? Am I such a disappointment to you? Among the family members, only I know you’re here so of course, I’ll have to come to visit you. Do you expect someone else?” Mo Yun then placed his present on the table. Mo Li stared at the ‘healing plant’ and she was rather speechless.
“It even knows how to dance!” Mo Yun explained, “Wish you a speedy recovery.”
“...Thank you, big brother.” Mo Li was not used to the attention.
“You don’t look too well. Is it because of the bad hospital food?”
“It’s not that...” Mo Li answered. She simply didn’t have the appetite.
“You have to recover as soon as possible. We can’t stay in the hospital forever. Between you and Ol’ Two, someone needs to hurry up and come home with me.” Mo Yun looked at Mo Li. He wanted to apologize for not reading her messages earlier. However, since Mo Li didn’t bring it up, he felt it was awkward for him to do that.
After Mo Yun left, Mo Li got out of bed. She had recovered for the most part.. As a doctor, she knew her body conditions well.
