Tian Xin had been busy the whole day and was lying on the sofa. She had recently moved out of her parents’ place and returned to her own ho.
She picked up her phone, which automatically played news. After watching it, she saw that Bei Ran had updated her WeChat.
Just as Tian Xin was about to put down her phone, she suddenly recognized the place Bei Ran had photographed, got startled, and jumped up for a closer look; it turned out Bei Ran had indeed gone to Qiao Mountain...
She imdiately called Bei Ran’s phone, but it was turned off; the sa went for Gu Qingchen, which made Tian Xin anxious. Then she called Zhuo Yufeng, but his phone was also off.
Tian Xin paced anxiously and picked up her phone again to call Yang Junyi. His phone went through, but nobody answered.
Tian Xin hurriedly called their departnt, and the nurse said, "Doctor Yang just went to the ergency room. There’s a very urgent surgery happening..."
Tian Xin knew he was safe, so she felt a bit relieved.
Tian Xin couldn’t sit still any longer; she grabbed her handbag and car keys, went downstairs, and drove towards Qiao Mountain.
When she arrived, she saw that a rescue operation was already being directed.
"How’s the situation?" Tian Xin quickly stepped forward to ask.
Tang Baijin turned around and saw it was Tian Xin; he wasn’t surprised but only said, "You’re here!"
Tian Xin didn’t expect Tang Baijin to have arrived earlier but then thought, perhaps he was just worried about Bei Ran? It’s normal for him to arrive early.
Seeing him again, Tian Xin still felt quite uneasy.
Tang Baijin was too busy to notice her expression, seeing Tian Xin step back silently, he also engaged in the rescue operation.
Tian Xin felt cold; she stood aside, watching Tang Baijin take command confidently, and held herself tightly.
Tang Baijin took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.
Tian Xin sowhat resisted for a mont, then did it! She threw the coat on the ground, and Tang Baijin found her behavior strange but had no ti to comnt on it.
Tian Xin looked away; she knew she couldn’t hate him, but felt as if there was a thorn in her heart, causing unbearable pain.
Tian Xin took out her phone, she always liked to have her Bluetooth turned on; as soon as she did, it detected nearby phones. She hoped Bei Ran’s phone was also present, as Bei Ran used the sa model as hers.
She sent a picture to all the sa model phones, several people opened it, then looked at her.
The picture Tian Xin sent was stored in her phone; others laughed, amazed to see a beautiful woman’s picture during such a tough rescue operation. Not bad at all!
Tian Xin felt a bit disappointed; perhaps Bei Ran’s phone did not have Bluetooth turned on?
In the mountain.
Bei Ran was attentively looking around, holding a flashlight in one hand, when she heard her phone ring. She thought it was an illusion as a phone couldn’t possibly ring without signal.
But Gu Qingchen and Zhuo Yufeng also looked at her.
"Is my phone ringing, isn’t it?" Bei Ran was sowhat surprised.
Both nodded simultaneously.
Bei Ran excitedly took out her phone and saw a picture from Tian Xin on Bluetooth, showing it to them with joy, "It’s from Tian Xin, she’s outside..."
Gu Qingchen nodded, "Send her a picture of our location!"
Bei Ran imdiately took a picture; although it wasn’t very clear under the light, it still roughly inford them about the situation.
Then, they waited for news from outside.
Tian Xin sneezed a few tis; the mountain breeze was bone-chilling, and she had rushed out without even wearing a coat.
She was shivering with cold.
Tang Baijin turned around, saw his coat on the ground, and frowned, "What? You dislike it?"
Tian Xin avoided his gaze, "You go do your thing!"
Her voice was nasal as she spoke.
"Then don’t disturb !" Tang Baijin’s tone also beca stern.
He put the coat on her again, and Tian Xin insisted, "I... don’t want to wear soone else’s clothes..."
"Didn’t you wear them before?" Tang Baijin felt she had changed.
Tian Xin spoke softly, "I won’t wear them from now on, please go ahead! Rescuing Bei Ran is the priority!"
Tang Baijin stared at her, "Do you want Bei Ran to see you catching a cold here?"
She didn’t!
He insistently dressed her in the coat and fastened the buttons.
Tian Xin’s face reddened involuntarily, then she looked away, unaware that her body was trembling imperceptibly.
Tang Baijin didn’t notice these details; eager to get Bei Ran out, he again instructed what people should do.
Tian Xin gripped her phone tightly; suddenly she heard a "beep" and hurriedly checked...
"Tang Baijin... Tang Baijin..." Tian Xin suddenly started calling out, Bei Ran’s phone had received her_picture ":Look quickly..."
This was the first ti she had called his_full_na" since that incident!
Tang Baijin approached her, and Tian Xin also hurried toward him, walking so quickly that due to the cold, her feet were frozen stiff, and she almost rolled down the slope.
Tang Baijin ran up and caught her with one hand, Tian Xin raised her phone, "Look at this, it’s Bei Ran..."
Tang Baijin held her hand with one hand and reached for the phone with the other.
Tian Xin slipped, and her body started to fall.
Tang Baijin tightened his grip on her and used all his strength to pull her up, resulting in both of them falling together...
Tian Xin was on top of Tang Baijin on the ground, but it didn’t hurt her as she had him cushioning her.
However, such close contact montarily flustered her.
He sat up, pulled her to one side, and took a deep breath: "What’s in the phone?"
"It’s a photo that Bei Ran sent back, it’s right here..." Tian Xin imdiately told him.
Upon seeing the situation inside the phone, Tang Baijin also beca excited, "That’s great!"
He told the rescue team, "Let’s push on, we’ll see them soon!"
Hearing him say this, Tian Xin also felt relieved, sat down on the ground, and rubbed her stiff feet.
Tang Baijin imdiately went to the entrance of the cave, continuously asuring the width and height, and also studying the soil there, being an architect, he also knew so about soil and geology.
He roughly checked the structure, "When everyone gets to this spot with the machinery, switch to manual labor. The soil structure is not good, and using machines can easily cause collapse."
He set up the rescue plan, and seeing that Tian Xin was still sitting on the grass unmoved, he loudly said: "Why don’t you co over here?"
"My feet are numb!" Tian Xin moved her feet, but the temperature was too low, and they still felt extrely stiff.
Tang Baijin looked at her small figure, wearing his oversized windbreaker, curled up into a ball in the bushes.
He walked over and reached out to pick her up.
For a mont, Tian Xin tensed up nervously.
mory is such that you can’t forget even if you want to.
She also wanted to lightly turn over this page, but everything is easier said than done.
Tang Baijin also felt her tense up in his arms, he rembered, she wasn’t like this before!
"What’s wrong?" he asked softly.
But Tian Xin turned her head away, looking towards where the heavy machinery was operating, what could she say?
It’s better he doesn’t know, to spare one more person the pain!
"I’m not used to other n holding !" Tian Xin said quietly.
Tang Baijin also felt a bit awkward, he put her down, "Can you walk? Wait in the car!"
Tian Xin still couldn’t face him, she didn’t know when she had beco so timid, she shook her head, "No, I want to wait here for Bei Ran to co out..."
Tang Baijin didn’t say anything more, he took a photo with Tian Xin’s phone and sent it to Bei Ran, it was of the outside rescue operations, he didn’t want her to worry so much inside.
When the rescue passage was clear, the dawn was already slightly bright.
Bei Ran was the first to be rescued, Tian Xin rushed forward to embrace her, both were choked up and silent for a mont, but their friendship was rising in this early morning.
After Gu Qingchen and Zhuo Yufeng and the others all ca out, soon, the rescue team disappeared without a trace, as if they had never appeared.
Bei Ran looked at Tang Baijin: "Was it Tian Xin who asked you to co?"
"No, by the ti I arrived, he had already organized the rescue team and was working." Tian Xin imdiately replied.
Tang Baijin said, "I received a ssage, saying Bei Ran was trapped at Qiao Mountain, telling to co for the rescue, and that I should command whatever type of people I needed."
He took out his phone, Gu Qingchen took it, Zhuo Yufeng looked at it: "It’s probably a disposable card, it will be discarded after use, but who is this mysterious person?"
Who is helping them? And who is secretly plotting all this?
Later, Zhuo Yufeng checked that card, and it was exactly as he deduced.
Many police arrived, found Su Dingmiao’s corpse; till her death, she was embracing that young man’s body, or perhaps, love is always a strange thing.
Love, so people choose to possess.
Love, so people choose to let go.
Whether it is aggressive possession or painful letting go, it’s always an insoluble puzzle, no one can thoroughly understand.
The dical examiner took Su Dingmiao’s fingerprints, they didn’t match.
It was confird, Su Dingmiao is not Qin Shan.
Everyone was busy for a while, but it turned out fruitless.
Actually, that’s not true, they still solved a missing person case; this man had disappeared mysteriously thirty years ago and was finally found thirty years later, his features unchanged.
Bei Ran nestled in Gu Qingchen’s arms, "Who do you think that person who sent people to rescue us is? A good person or a bad person?"
Gu Qingchen sighed, "Really, what is the definition of a good person or a bad person? Su Dingmiao was strict with herself all her life, who would expect her to be a murderer? Qin Shan is utterly bad, but why hasn’t he shown up?"
Bei Ran also sighed, right, who would have thought!
