Chapter 463: Chapter 463: A Scare, a Hero

"A fire and theft at the museum..." Zhang Hong only dared to report this after seeing Zhao Nuanyue go into the kitchen, afraid she would worry if she overheard.

The toothbrush in Hua Yusen’s hand nearly jabbed him in the throat. He asked urgently, "How is Nuanyang?"

Hua Yusen wasn’t concerned about whether anything was lost; those were just inanimate objects. He cared about Zhao Nuan Yang’s safety. If something happened to Zhao Nuan Yang, he could already foresee the overwhelming grief that would engulf their family.

"It’s not clear yet. Right now, the museum is only letting people in, not out," Zhang Hong replied. "Our people are still investigating. I’m sure we’ll have results soon. But, with Nuanyang’s skills, I don’t think he’d be in any trouble."

But while Zhang Hong had managed to keep Zhao Nuanyue from hearing, he hadn’t accounted for Little Red Carp.

Little Red Carp had already walked over without them noticing.

"Oh my god, what happened to Big Brother? The museum is on fire?" Little Red Carp exclaimed in shock. "Sister, let’s go find him! Let’s go find Big Brother!"

Zhao Nuanyue, who was in the middle of cooking, heard the word "fire." Her spatula clattered to the floor, but she paid it no mind, running out to ask urgently, "Yu Sen, how could the museum be on fire? What happened to Nuanyang?"

Seeing his wife so anxious, Hua Yusen quickly spat out his toothpaste and started to explain, "Nuanyang..."

Just as Hua Yusen was about to reassure Zhao Nuanyue and Little Red Carp, someone shouted from the front yard, "Is this Zhao Nuan Yang’s home?"

Hearing her brother’s name, Zhao Nuanyue’s face turned pale. She bolted outside, and upon seeing the visitor, she asked frantically, "My brother is safe, right? He is, isn’t he?"

The visitor was none other than Li.

Pan Ling’er knew that Zhao Nuan Yang was very particular about his clothes. So after seeing his clothes in tatters and knowing he couldn’t leave, she had asked Li to come and get some for him.

Seeing Zhao Nuan Yang’s sister so nervous, Li quickly replied, "Don’t worry, Zhao Nuan Yang is fine. He was just helping with the rescue last night, so his clothes got ruined. He has to cooperate with the investigation, so he can’t leave. He asked me to help get him a few changes of clothes."

Hearing Li’s words, Zhao Nuanyue finally relaxed, murmuring to herself, "As long as he’s okay. As long as he’s okay!"

"Sister, hurry up and pack some clothes for Big Brother," Little Red Carp said, seeing her sister still standing there in a daze, frightened by the earlier mention of a ’fire’.

"Oh, right, I’ll go right now." Zhao Nuanyue panicked and rushed off again to pack the clothes.

The reason Zhao Nuanyue was so panicked and afraid was because in her previous life, Zhao Nuan Yang had died on New Year’s Eve when he was eighteen. Because of this, Zhao Nuanyue had been on edge this whole time, not daring to let her guard down for even a moment.

As Zhao Nuanyue packed, her mind was racing. ’When Nuanyang gets back from work, I’ll keep him locked up at home. I’ll take time off from work too. We won’t go anywhere. I’ll just stay with Nuanyang and get through the day that brought me such despair and rage in my past life.’

’In this life, I will not let anything happen to my brother, Zhao Nuan Yang. Absolutely not!’

Zhao Nuanyue hurriedly finished packing and prepared to go to the museum with Little Red Carp.

Hua Yusen saw how anxious his wife was. He knew Zhao Nuanyue wouldn’t calm down until she saw Zhao Nuan Yang was safe with her own eyes. As his brother-in-law, he was also a bit worried, so he went with them, and they drove to the museum together.

When they arrived at the museum entrance this time, not only was Uncle Xu the gatekeeper there, but there were also many armed men standing guard. There were not just police officers, but soldiers as well. It looked like the Hero Squad had been dispatched.

This meant Zhao Nuan Yang probably wouldn’t be coming home anytime soon.

Fortunately, she had packed several sets of clothes for Zhao Nuan Yang in the bag, including underwear.

Pan Ling’er had been busy, but when she saw Zhao Nuanyue arrive, she waved and said, "Nuanyue, are you here to see Nuanyang?"

"Yes. Nuanyang was working overtime here all night, and this morning I heard about the theft and fire at the museum. I was so worried, so I rushed over to check on him and bring him some clothes." Zhao Nuanyue was extremely anxious. Right now, Pan Ling’er was the only person she knew inside. "Ling’er, could you go get Nuanyang? Let him come out so I can see him for a second. I won’t be able to relax otherwise."

"Of course, Nuanyue. Wait here, I’ll go get him for you right now." Pan Ling’er nodded and hurried toward the office where Zhao Nuan Yang was.

When she reached the office door, Pan Ling’er knocked. "Zhao Nuan Yang, your sister and little sister are here to see you."

Hearing this, Zhao Nuan Yang, who had been fast asleep, suddenly opened his eyes and shot up from his chair.

He knew he must look a mess, but thankfully, he wasn’t injured. He could imagine how worried his sister and little sister would be if he didn’t show his face soon.

Zhao Nuan Yang got up, threw off the thin blanket covering him, and looked down at his tattered clothes, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He also felt extremely awkward; he liked to be neat and tidy under any circumstances.

’I just hope my sister didn’t forget to bring me some clothes.’

When Zhao Nuan Yang came out of the office, Pan Ling’er saw him dressed in his ragged outfit.

Although Zhao Nuan Yang felt embarrassed, no one at the museum who knew what happened, including Pan Ling’er, would laugh at him.

Yesterday, at the most critical moment, Zhao Nuan Yang had been the first to charge into the fire, rescuing four people and catching two of the culprits.

He was a hero—the museum’s hero.

Even dressed in rags, a hero was still a hero. A flaw couldn’t hide his brilliance; he was still dazzling.

Besides, people in this era didn’t judge others by their appearance. So when Zhao Nuan Yang appeared before everyone in his tattered clothes, he was met with gazes of admiration and reverence, not ridicule.

Along the way, staff members and other people he knew all greeted Zhao Nuan Yang.

Zhao Nuan Yang politely nodded back to everyone in acknowledgement.

When Zhao Nuan Yang appeared at the main gate, Little Red Carp was stunned to see her brother’s tattered clothes.

"Big Brother! Big Brother, we’re over here!" Little Red Carp was being held by Hua Yusen, so she had a high vantage point. She spotted Zhao Nuan Yang the moment he appeared and couldn’t help but shout.

Zhao Nuan Yang ran over. Zhao Nuanyue looked him up and down, and her heart, which had been caught in her throat, finally settled when she saw he wasn’t injured. But when she saw his messy, unevenly cut hair, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Still, Zhao Nuan Yang had participated in the rescue and managed to save several people. His hair must have gotten singed.
