Xin Ye and Li Hua arrive at the building. They both panic and starts hiding everything about Chronofang.
"Guys! I think we should destroy everything which we found. We have less time.", Yi Chen says.
Xin Ye removes the pages from her diary and takes out the pictures which she pasted on it. Li Hua collects the samples which Xin Ye finds in the cave and puts into a bucket.
"Give me fast.", Yi Chen says.
The door opens and Mu Yang comes inside.
"How did you know that Jin Hai is coming here? What that mafia wants from us?", Yi Chen asks.
"Actually... I didn't told you one thing. Jin Hai gave me job and he also used to give me money. Maybe he expected me to give him the information of artifacts and I refused. That's why he is angry. And maybe he knows that we have something related to Chronofang.", Mu Yang says.
"Why did you tell us earlier? You know Jin Hai! That mafia!", Li Hua says.
"I didn't want to bother you with my presence around you. I truly wanted to explore the things with you.", Mu Yang says.
Xin Ye comes near Mu Yang. She looks at him with a concerned look. She knows that Jin Hai is a dangerous mafia who can kill anyone for his benefits. Mu Yang has acted against him, so Jin Hai may punish Mu Yang very severely.
"We have less time. Anytime he will be here with his guards.", Yi Chen says.
Yi Chen puts every proof of Chronofang on the floor. He burns them. Mu Yang opens the cupboard and takes out the book. He looks at it intentionally.
"Throw it in the fire!", Xin Ye says.
Mu Yang throws the book into the fire. The flames destroy all the evidence. But then they all realize Chao Xiang's sculpture is very important to hide.
Li Hua looks out from the window and gets tense to see many cars heading towards the building. Her heartbeat increases.
"Help us to carry this sculpture!", Yi Chen says.
Yi Chen and Mu Yang are trying to carry the sculpture. Xin Ye and Li Hua also helps them and they finally lifts it up. They slowly bring it towards the room.
Jin Hai enters the building. His guards break all the doors and searches Mu Yang and his friends. They reach the hall which is empty and at a corner something is burning.
Jin Hai comes near the fire and bends on his knees. His eyes falls on the page is a diary and there is mentioning the name of Chronofang.
"Oh so my doubt was clear. They know!", Jin Hai says.
"Boss! They are inside this room.", A bodyguard says when he sees the door is locked from inside.
"Break the door and bring them in front of me! They know about Chronofang.", Jin Hai says.
Bodyguards tries to break the door. From the other side Yi Chen and Mu Yang have put their full body force on the door so Jin Hai can't open it.
"You both ran out from the window.", Yi Chen says.
"Xin Ye! Be careful while running. We will handle these people.", Mu Yang says.
"No! I can't leave you both here! I am not going anywhere. And I am also a fighter. I know fighting skills very well. I can fight for ourselves.", Xin Ye says.
The bodyguards push the door due to which Mu Yang and Yi Chen fall on the ground. The door breaks and before it could fall over them they both roll on the other direction.
"Aaa! Yi Chen!", Li Hua shouts in panic.
"Yi Chen! Mu Yang! Are you both fine?", Xin Ye asks.
The bodyguards come into the room and keeps everyone on their gun point.
"Hands up or get ready to die.", Jin Hai says. He walks inside the room with a villain aura, holding gun in a hand and showing who with his walks.
"Let us go! Why are you here?", Li Hua asks.
Jin Hai shouts Li Hua. Li Hua couldn't understand because it was so sudden. The bullet goes inside her chest and blood starts oozing from there.
"Chen...", Xin Ye says and falls on her knees.
Yi Chen's knees tremble and he falls on his knees in front of Li Hua. He touches her body. The body is stiff and lifeless. Her eyes are open but she is not breathing.
"Huaaa! Nooo! Y...you can't...you can't die! Hua...open your eyes... Noo! Arghhhh!", Xin Ye shouts and starts crying badly.
Xin Ye takes a deep breath and then cries very loudly in the sorrow of her childhood best friend who is no more.
"Hua... How I will live without you... Open your eyes... Please... Hua.. i...I am your fiance! Please.. please open your eyes... Don't prank... Don't scare me.. i love you so much. I promise I will fulfill... fulfill your all desires.. please open your eyes!", Yi Chen says. He sobs and cries badly.
Yi Chen holds his chest as he is feeling problem in breathing and his breathing is becoming difficult. His love of life is dead. His heart shattered and all his dreams of a happy family vanishes in front of his eyes.
"How dare you!", Mu Yang shouts in anger. His eyes turn red.
Yi Chen sobs and shakes his breath. He uplifts his face and looks at Jin Hai with his red wet eyes. He gets up from the floor and walks towards him.
"I will kill you! You killed my fiance! I wanted to marry her! She was my love... You are a beast! Jin Hai... Go to hell!", Yi Chen shouts.
Yi Chen looks around. He behaves like a mentally sick patient now. He grabs a flower vase.
"Go to hell!", Yi Chen shouts and throws the flower vase towards Jin Hai.
A bodyguard kicks the flower vase and it smashes on the wall.
"I killed your love. If you miss her a lot then you can go with her.", Jin Hai says.
Xin Ye held Li Hua's hand. She is guilty that she couldn't protect her friend.
"Hua... Hua... Hua! Are you listening? Hua... *sob*.. I am sorry... *sob*... Y..you are only my best friend! My best friend forever! *sob*... I couldn't protect you...", Xin Ye says and sobs continuously.
A bodyguard grabs Yi Chen's hand and punches his chest. The punch was so loud that Yi Chen's rob bone gets cracked.
"Aaahhhh!", Yi Chen groans in pain and he falls on the other side.
Mu Yang comes forward to fight with the bodyguards. Their fight turns intense. Jin Hai grabs Yi Chen's collar and starts punching his face.
"What are you hiding from me? Is it Chronofang? Where is it?", Jin Hai asks.
Yi Chen's eyes turn blue due to those punches. His nose bleeds and one tooth falls on the floor. His mouth bleeds. It gets difficult for him to see everything clearly due to blue swollen eyes.
"What are you hiding?", Jin Hai shouts.
"I will not tell... I will kill y..you! You killed her.. she was my fiance. We were about to get married and live a happily married life but y..you..", Yi Chen whispers but it's enough to listenable to Jin Hai.
"You will not answer! Right!", Jin Hai says. He grabs Yi Chen's cheeks and puts the front part of the gun inside his mouth.
Yi Chen sees Li Hua's face in front of his eyes. Tears are continuously slipping from his eyes, and he is crying silently. All the good and bad memories come to his mind. He smiles a little as he remembers her and closes his eyes. He's not afraid of death, but rather, he's ready to die.
What does he have left in this world now? The woman he was supposed to marry is gone. She's headed for heaven. Yi Chen will follow his love. At least they will be with each other in heaven or hell. God will surely show them so much mercy that they can remain together even in spirit form. Yi Chen thinks about all this right now.
"Die!", Jin Hai says and then he loads his one bullet inside Yi Chen's mouth.
