Chapter 28 Come for her



Chapter 28 Come for her

"Breaking news: An ancient tomb from the Yuan Dynasty has been discovered in Nanxun City. Archaeologists from various regions rushed to Wolong Mountain in Nanxun City to conduct a rescue excavation. However, at 3:50 PM, Nanxun City was hit by a once-in-a-century torrential rain, and all the archaeologists on Wolong Mountain lost contact..."

On his way home from get off work, Chen Dong was scrolling through his phone in the passenger seat.

"A tomb from the Yuan and Qin periods, Master, Nanxun City is truly a place of auspicious feng shui! Judging from this news, the tomb on Wolong Mountain must be of high status, at the very least the tomb of a king or general!" Chen Dong exclaimed.

Su Yuchen didn't speak, but felt somewhat uneasy.

“Master, should we buy a piece of land in Nanxun City? If this tomb is unearthed, wouldn’t we be able to skip the advertising fees?” Chen Dong said.

Su Yuchen was absent-minded and only came back to his senses when Chen Dong asked him again.

"Master, what do you think?" Chen Dong asked, looking at Su Yuchen in the rearview mirror.

"Chen Dong, which school does Yun Yao go to?" Su Yuchen didn't answer Chen Dong's question, but instead asked this question.

Although Chen Dong didn't know why Su Yuchen was asking about this again, he still answered quickly.

"Master, Miss Yun Yao attends Imperial University."

What did she study?

"Archaeology!" Chen Dong replied directly.

Wait, archaeology?

Chen Dong turned around abruptly, looking at Su Yuchen with some nervousness.

"Master, Miss Yun Yao is studying archaeology!"

"I'm not deaf."

Su Yuchen remained calm on the surface, but his tightly clenched fists betrayed his true emotions.

"Call the Yun family," Su Yuchen ordered coldly.

Chen Dong frantically searched for Yun Zhengfeng's phone number, while Su Yuchen dialed Yun Yao's number directly.

I called once, but no one answered.

I called again, but still no one answered.

"Hello? Is this Grandpa Yun?" Chen Dong finally got through and asked anxiously.

Before Yun Zhengfeng could respond, Su Yuchen snatched Chen Dong's phone away.

"I am Su Yuchen. Where is Yun Yao?" Su Yuchen's words were quite simple and blunt.

Upon hearing that the person opposite him was Su Yuchen, Yun Zhengfeng felt as if he had found a savior.

"President Su, Yun Yao went to Nanxun. She's a member of the archaeological team!" Yun Zhengfeng hurriedly said.

Yun Zhengfeng was watching TV at home, bored, when he saw this emergency news broadcast. He frantically tried to call the rescue team, but either no one answered or the call was hung up. Just as he was wondering what to do, Su Yuchen called.

Although he believed his ancestor was omnipotent, the situation in Nanxun was dire, and he dared not gamble with his ancestor's safety!

Now things are much better. Su Yuchen's methods are extraordinary. If he wants to intervene, this matter will be much easier to handle, and the safety of our ancestor will be better protected.

"President Su, please, you must find Yun Yao." Yun Zhengfeng's words carried a hint of pleading.

Su Yuchen didn't respond and hung up the phone directly.

To Chen Dong's shock, Su Yuchen got out of the car and replaced the driver.

"Dispatch a helicopter."

Chen Dong nodded, watching the buildings rushing past the window, gripping the handrail tightly with one hand.

……

The rain in Nanxun City has not stopped, and the strangest thing is that the rain is heaviest in Wolong Mountain, which has washed away all the roads down the mountain.

Rescuers, clad in raincoats, trudged through the forest, shouting for a response. Two hours passed, and they had only found ten team members. The longer it went on, the more dangerous it became for the victims.

Meanwhile, the foot of the mountain, which was originally unlit, was as bright as day, with the headlights of dozens of vehicles turning on at the same time, bringing a ray of light to the mountain forest.

Many of the archaeologists' family members have arrived, and their cries and wails are heartbreaking to hear.

People were carried down on stretchers one after another, and the family members who were waiting at the foot of the mountain went to greet them. They were heartbroken to see their children covered in wounds.

By the time Su Yuchen arrived, the rescue operation was already in its final stages.

He looked at his teammates who had survived the ordeal and were embracing each other, and then at the medical staff who were doing their best to save people. There were all sorts of people, but he didn't see the figure in his heart.

Chen Dong also couldn't find Yun Yao, so he handed the umbrella to Su Yuchen and went forward to inquire.

"Excuse me, have all the trapped people been rescued yet?" Chen Dong asked loudly, shielding his head from the rain.

"No, there are two left!" one reporter replied before hurriedly leaving.

There are still two left. Miss Yun Yao must not have come out yet!

"Master, Yun..." Chen Dong was about to report, but before he could finish speaking, he saw Su Yuchen walking towards the warning line.

"master!"

"Sir, I know you're anxious, but please don't disrupt the order at the scene!" A policeman stopped Su Yuchen.

Su Yuchen stared intently at the intersection, and Chen Dong followed Su Yuchen's gaze. Upon seeing it, he froze on the spot.

The two people were carried out, but both were covered with white sheets.

This……

Su Yuchen dropped the umbrella in his hand and forced his way through.

The torrential rain created a mist, and the car headlights pierced through, hitting everyone. The shouts of the policeman who had been stopped by Chen Dong rang out behind Su Yuchen, but Su Yuchen's eyes... were only on the person on the stretcher.

He gently lifted the white cloth, but the stunning face he had expected did not appear, and he breathed a slight sigh of relief.

His gaze fell on the stretcher behind him, and his heart felt as if it were being squeezed by a large hand, making it difficult to even breathe.

"Sir, are you a relative of Qi Dabai?" The rescuers saw Su Yuchen heading towards them and assumed he was a relative of the person in distress.

Qi Dabai?

"No."

"No? What are you doing standing here? There's a high chance of a landslide soon, it's very dangerous, get out of here!" the rescuers shouted directly.

"Has everyone been rescued?" Su Yuchen wouldn't listen to their advice at all.

"Yes! Everyone has been rescued." Hearing their affirmative answer, Su Yuchen stared blankly as they carried the stretcher away.

They've all been rescued? What about Yun Yao?

Rain lashed against his handsome face, which was contorted with pain. Su Yuchen's eyes were vacant as he turned to leave.

Chen Dong felt a dull ache in his heart as he looked at Su Yuchen's distraught appearance.

The master has never treated anyone like this before, nor has he ever been so disheveled. Miss Yun Yao, you really...

A loud rumble came from the mountain.

Not far behind Su Yuchen, all the trees had fallen, completely blocking the path.

“Yun Yao…” Su Yuchen clenched his hands tightly at his sides, murmuring softly, his face full of pain.

Everyone present was shrouded in this somber atmosphere. Judging from the scene, they guessed that the person Su Yuchen was looking for might not be from the archaeological team, but rather someone who had been permanently sealed away in Wolong Mountain.

Su Yuchen turned around, feeling an intense pain in his heart. A tear involuntarily slid down his cheek, instantly mingling with the rain.

He raised his hand to wipe away his tears, looking at his palm in astonishment.

I actually...cried?
