Xavier climbed out of the window with Renee on his back.


    Due to the weight he was carrying, every step he took was careful andborious. His arms needed a lot


    of strength just to hold on…


    Smoke billowed and mes raged, “pursuing” them like the Grim Reaper.


    Xavier moved down one step at a time. Sweat dripped down his face like rain, wetting his clothes.


    Bulging veins could be seen on his handsome face that was flushed red from using too much force. He


    was obviously having a really difficult time and was rapidly running out of stamina.

    They were now between the first floor and the second floor. The zing fire was above them and the


    hard ground was below them.


    Xavier could have just jumped down if it wasn’t for Renee. However, with Renee on his back, he could


    only descend step by step, which meant that they were escaping rather slowly.


    They were stuck in the middle at the moment, unable to move up or down. They did not know what to


    do.


    Renee was touched and felt bad for Xavier, so she said while choking back tears, “ Xavier, if you can’t


    hang on anymore, just jump down. That way… at least one of us will survive! ”


    “Nonsense!”


    Xavier’s voice was hoarse. He said with much difficulty, “If you know I’m having a hard time, stop being


    annoying. It’ll be over soon!”


    He looked around and finally found a foothold, but he no longer had any strength left. He told Renee


    through gritted teeth, “Listen, I’ll put you on the air-con box. You should be able to climb down from


    there…”


    “But what about you? The air-con box can only fit one person. If you put me over there, would you have


    any foothold?”


    “Don’t worry about me. I’ll be right behind you!”


    “But…”


    “No buts. You’re too heavy, I can’t hang on any longer. Go!”


    Xavier shouted impatiently.


    Then, using his body like a bridge, he transferred Renee to the nearby air-con box.


    Renee stopped hesitating. She grabbed the box and carefully climbed down from it.


    At a crucial moment like this, every second was valuable. The earlier she reached the ground, the


    higher their chances of living…


    Normally, climbing down from this height was a trifle for a healthy and agile woman like her.


    But now, she had to be mindful of the children in her belly, so she had to move carefully. She did not


    dare to perform any big movement.


    “I did it! I did it!”


    After some struggle, Renee finally seeded in reaching the ground.


    Although some parts of the ground were also burning, it was an open space, so it was much less


    dangerous here than it was indoors.


    “Great, I’ll be right there!”


    Xavier also heaved a sigh of relief. He adjusted his position, preparing to jump down.


    Unfortunately, the fire was so strong that it destroyed the air-con box.


    Before Xavier could jump off, his body was already burned by the fire. He fell to the ground together


    with the box.


    “Shit!”


    Xavier’s foot was broken, smashed by the air-con box. He could not move it at all.


    Renee quickly went over to support him, “It’s okay, let’s get out of here!”


    “Don’t worry about me. The fire is spreading too quickly. You have to run away by yourself!”


    “Shut up!”


    Renee lifted him up with much difficulty and novelxo they staggered through the mes.


    “You stupid woman, let me go! I don’t need a woman to save me! It’s… embarrassing!”


    The thicker the smoke, the weaker Xavier became.


    In his blurry vision, Renee’s thin and petite body seemed so determined and strong. It made his heart


    flutter.


    “Give it up, Xavier! I won’t leave you behind, just like you wouldn’t leave me behind earlier! I’ll definitely


    save you!”


    With Renee’s fierce voice still ringing in his ears, Xavier passed out…
