In This Life, I Will Extremely Pamper My Short-Lived Husband

"Jinzhi!" Xie Yanchuan screamed, his voice hoarse with exertion, and then he took out Assistant Chen’s work card to swipe for the elevator.

"Professor Xie! The staff will be here any minute!" Assistant Chen stepped forward to stop him, worried that swiping the elevator card might cause it to restart.

"I can’t wait anymore! She’s been trapped in there for at least half an hour!" Xie Yanchuan’s eyes were bloodshot as he forcefully pushed Assistant Chen away.

He didn’t know whether this would open the elevator, but Xu Jinzhi was on this very floor, pregnant, and now without even the strength to make a phone call. He simply couldn’t wait!

Xie Yanchuan swiped the card, then kept pressing the elevator button, but the doors didn’t open quickly, remaining completely still.

Everyone around felt their hearts rise in their chests, Xie Yanchuan’s eyes fixed on the elevator, his heart sinking bit by bit.

Just when everyone thought the elevator wouldn’t open, the doors parted!

Xie Yanchuan instantly saw Xu Jinzhi, lying in the elevator; at this moment, Jinzhi’s eyes were closed, evidently she had fainted.

Not only that, but Xie Yanchuan also saw blood under Xu Jinzhi.

Xie Yanchuan rushed in, knelt on the ground, and held Xu Jinzhi in his arms, struggling to remain calm as he shook her gently, his voice hoarse, calling, "Jinzhi."

However, the person in his arms gave no response.

Xie Yanchuan didn’t continue, he directly picked Xu Jinzhi up and took her into another elevator.

Assistant Chen also hurried into the elevator with him.

During the brief elevator ride, Xie Yanchuan felt an unbearable length, as if a century had passed.

When they reached the ground floor, they saw an ambulance waiting in front of the company building. Xie Yanchuan carried Xu Jinzhi towards it.

At this time, everyone in the company already knew what had happened to Xu Jinzhi, and they all looked extremely serious.

Xu Jinzhi found Xie Yanchuan.

With a trace of joy, she ran towards Xie Yanchuan, "Xie Yanchuan!"

Xie Yanchuan heard her voice, his entire figure stiffened, as if in disbelief, but still he turned his head to look.

That one glance left Xie Yanchuan stunned; his expression shifted from initial shock to anger.

Xu Jinzhi didn’t understand why Xie Yanchuan’s expression was so strange; seeing her, shouldn’t he be happy?

Why such an expression? It looked utterly joyless.

"Xie Yanchuan, what’s wrong?" Xu Jinzhi walked towards Xie Yanchuan, her confusion evident as she asked.

Not until she was right in front of him did Xie Yanchuan stop frowning at Xu Jinzhi. After a long moment, Xie Yanchuan finally asked in a deep voice, "Why are you here?"

"Huh?" Xu Jinzhi looked completely baffled, "What do you mean? I don’t quite understand – can’t I be here?"

"Of course, you can’t be here!" Xie Yanchuan said sharply.

Xu Jinzhi still looked bewildered at Xie Yanchuan, not understanding what he meant at all.

Xie Yanchuan, however, spoke with some irritation, "How did you get here?"

"Huh? How did I get here?" Xu Jinzhi thought back, how did she come to be here?

Thinking hard, Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but furrow her brow. How did she get here? She didn’t know how she had arrived!

"Can’t I come?" Xu Jinzhi asked Xie Yanchuan in puzzled bewilderment.

"Of course not!" Xie Yanchuan declared decisively as he stood.

Before Xu Jinzhi could speak, Xie Yanchuan continued, "I’ve already taken the disaster meant for you, why would you still be in trouble?"

"Wasn’t it said that as long as someone takes your disaster, you would be safe?"

"No! You can’t die!"

"Xie Yanchuan, what, what are you talking about?" Xu Jinzhi looked at Xie Yanchuan with a face full of shock, as if she understood what he meant, yet at the same time, she didn’t understand at all.

Xie Yanchuan didn’t resolve Xu Jinzhi’s confusion; instead, he grabbed her hand and hurried forward, continuously saying, "No! You have to go back now, it might still be in time!"

Xie Yanchuan was walking very fast, and Xu Jinzhi couldn’t keep up with his pace, almost stumbling a few times.

"Xie Yanchuan, where are you taking me?" Xu Jinzhi was still very confused, not understanding what he was trying to do.

But Xie Yanchuan didn’t explain, he just kept pulling Xu Jinzhi forward non-stop.

After following Xie Yanchuan for a while, Xu Jinzhi could no longer bear it and forcefully broke free from his hand.

Xie Yanchuan turned back, very angrily saying, "If we don’t hurry now, it will be too late!"

"It’s not that, where exactly are you going? What will be too late?" Xu Jinzhi was also somewhat angry; she didn’t like the way Xie Yanchuan was talking to her.

Xie Yanchuan seemed about to explain something, but in the end, he still couldn’t bring himself to say it. He just stepped forward and once again seized Xu Jinzhi’s hand, pulling her to walk quickly.

"Xie Yanchuan!" Xu Jinzhi struggled continuously, trying to break free from his grip.

However, this time Xie Yanchuan appeared to be worried about being thrown off by Xu Jinzhi again, holding on very tightly, making it impossible for her to break free.

"Xie Yanchuan, what on earth are you trying to do?" Xu Jinzhi pressed on with her questioning.

But Xie Yanchuan ignored her, simply continuing to walk forward, getting faster and faster.

With no other choice, Xu Jinzhi could only shout at Xie Yanchuan’s retreating figure, "Xie Yanchuan, you’re hurting me!" 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

Seemingly hearing that he had hurt her, Xie Yanchuan hesitated for a moment, but just when Xu Jinzhi thought Xie Yanchuan would stop, he started pulling her forward again.

Xu Jinzhi had no idea where Xie Yanchuan was taking her. It was pitch dark around them, clearly there was nothing there!

They walked on and on, and right before Xu Jinzhi was about to lose her temper again, they arrived at an extremely bright place. The light was so blinding that Xu Jinzhi couldn’t help but squint.

Xie Yanchuan, however, sighed in relief, muttering, "Fortunately, we’re in time."

Xu Jinzhi frowned tightly, looking at Xie Yanchuan who had turned to face her. He finally wasn’t in that angry and rushed state anymore, back to being the tender Xie Yanchuan.

But for some reason, Xu Jinzhi felt a deep discomfort in her heart, as though something very sad had happened, making her feel like crying uncontrollably.

And Xie Yanchuan was still looking at Xu Jinzhi with deep affection. After a long while, he finally stepped forward and held Xu Jinzhi in his arms.

He said softly, "Jinzhi, take good care of yourself when I’m gone."

"You’ve always been very strong, I believe you can look after yourself."

Xie Yanchuan didn’t want to let her go, but he feared that any delay would cause them to miss the last chance, so he could only let go of Xu Jinzhi.
