Was he going to die here today...
The footsteps downstairs were getting closer. Huo Yulin was ready to make his last stand.
But when he saw the person's head, the scalpel fell to the ground with a clang.
The person who came was none other than Cheng Ming.
"Young Master Lin!"
Cheng Ming's voice was filled with joy as he walked up the stairs. Just as he was about to ask Huo Yulin what was going on, his eyes landed on Huo Yulin's soaked clothes and the blood on his hands dripping to the ground.
Cheng Ming's face changed drastically. "Young Master Lin, you..."
Huo Yulin raised his hand to stop him. He removed the communication device from his ear and switched it off. "Let's go."
Cheng Ming hurriedly reached out to support him. When he looked up, he noticed that Huo Yulin's clothes were almost completely soaked and the stairs were also covered in blood.
The wound was fatal. The bullet had penetrated his chest and was closest to his heart.
Huo Yulin was still conscious. He leaned on Cheng Ming's shoulder and said, "Don't mention what happened tonight to Ah Yao. Not even a word."
Cheng Ming's hands were trembling. He knew Huo Yulin's character very well, so he could only nod with difficulty. "I know. Don't say anything. I'll send you to the hospital now."
"If... I can't make it, please tell Uncle that I've let him down. I didn't find any clues about Auntie Tong and my little sister... Don't drag her into this..."
Huo Yulin stuttered before his head drooped weakly.
Cheng Ming's eyes turned bloodshot when he sensed Huo Yulin's condition. The veins on the back of his hands were about to pop. However, he did not dare to delay. He hurriedly asked his men to help Huo Yulin onto his back. Just as he was about to go downstairs, he noticed the scalpel on the ground.
He bent down carefully to pick it up and put it in his pocket. He turned to the men beside him and said, "One of you stay here and clean up the blood."
Before long, Cheng Ming left through the back door with Huo Yulin on his back before the guards arrived.
They had already made an opening when they first came in, so it was easy for them to leave without alerting the people in the research institute.

The last thing Huo Yao heard was Cheng Ming's voice through the earpiece. Then, the connection was cut off.
She clicked on the touch panel a few times and directly switched to the location tracking function. Looking at the red dot flickering and moving, she was supposed to be relieved, but she couldn't calm down.
In such a dangerous situation just now, the gunshot would most likely result in injury.
Huo Yao clenched her fists and turned off the computer. She reached out and pulled open the desk drawer. It was filled with bottles and cans.
She picked three bottles from the pile, then took out her set of needles, stood up, and strode out.
Huo Yao called Cheng Ming after she drove out of the estate.
After a while, Cheng Ming picked up the phone and his voice sounded normal. "Missy, we've already left the medical school with Young Master Lin."
Huo Yao held the steering wheel and looked straight ahead. "Is my brother okay?"
Cheng Ming turned to look at Huo Yulin, who had dyed the car seat red. His chest was barely heaving up and down. His throat felt sore as he remembered Young Master Lin's instructions. He said, "He's fine. It's just... some superficial injuries."
Huo Yao's eyes darkened. She stepped on the accelerator and said, "Where is he? I'm coming over now."
