Chapter 179 A Living Life
There were many people in the crowd who sympathized with Wang Fu, but now the members were very excited. In such a situation, it was not appropriate to speak out and offend the public, so they lowered their heads, trembling with their lips, and did not dare to say a word.
Gu Yuehuai did not hesitate any longer and took two steps forward to stand in front of Wang Fu.
She was quite tall, and standing in front of Wang Fu, she almost completely blocked him. However, the members who had caught Wang Fu to ask about the food shortage gradually became silent, and looked at her with a bit of unfriendly eyes.
Gu Yuehuai didn't care about the looks of others and spoke slowly.
"Everyone, you should also know the details of this group of educated youth who went to the countryside, right?"
"I heard that among the educated youth from Beijing is the son of the governor. If something happens to these people in our Dalaozi Production Brigade, how will we explain it? Are you sure you want to question the branch secretary about the food shortage now?"
"What's more, apart from anything else, a person was lost, a living life!"
"We all know each other well, and we are all good comrades serving the people. At this time, no one with a conscience can sit idly by. We should unite and help the educated youth!"
Gu Yuehuai's voice is as gurgling as a spring, and it always stirs everyone's heart when it falls into people's ears.
Wang Fu looked at the girl standing in front of him, with gratitude flashing in his weathered old eyes.
He was so tired. It was the first time someone stood in front of him in such a long time. Xiao Gu was a good comrade!
Chen Yuesheng stood in the crowd, looking at the calm Gu Yuehuai, an indescribable subtle feeling welling up in his heart.
Now, she doesn't like him anymore, and he's married. The two of them are going in opposite directions and have no chance at all. The chaotic life at home during this period has also worn away his mind, but he sees such a charming Gu Yuehuai again and again.
His heart ached, he bit his cheek and said loudly: "Comrade Gu is right! That is a living life, and now we are waiting to rescue it! We can talk about other things later, we should unite and go find that person now!"
Hearing Chen Yuesheng's support, Gu Yuehuai looked indifferent and did not show any emotion.
At this time, the person who should be grateful to him is Pan Ruoyin.
In the crowd, Gu Zhifeng and Gu Tinghuai also spoke up and echoed, inciting the emotions of the members.
Soon, all the members went out with lanterns to look for people. The entire Dalaozi Production Brigade was brightly lit, and some young men even organized teams to go up the mountain to look for people.
At the foot of the mountain.
Huang Sheng looked at the mountaintop shrouded in darkness and tightened his collar: "Fifth Brother, are we really going up the mountain?"
Song Jinan pursed her lips, said nothing, and took the lead in walking up the mountain along the path carrying the lantern.
Tian Jing looked at his back and followed him without saying a word. To her, Pan Ruoyin was also unimportant, but whether she could take this opportunity to take a closer look with Song Jinan became the top priority.
Huang Sheng frowned and cursed inwardly, then took a cautious look at the dark environment and followed with gritted teeth.
This Pan Ruoyin was not a good person when he was in Beijing. Even after he went to the countryside to work as a production team member, he still always caused trouble for others!
"Pan Ruoyin?!"
"Ruoyin? Ruoyin, where are you? Answer me!"
Song Jinan's forehead was covered with cold sweat and his heart was beating like a drum. The later it was to find Pan Ruoyin, the more worried he became. When he came here, he promised to take good care of Pan Ruoyin. How long had it been since he came here, and already she was missing?
At this time, the sound of wolves howling was heard from the mountains.
Huang Sheng was so frightened that his soul left his body. His legs were shaking as he said, "Fifth Brother...Fifth Brother, shall we go back? There are wolves! Wolves!"
He clutched Song Jinan's sleeve tightly, his teeth chattering. If he had not been afraid to go back alone, he would have gone down the mountain long ago. It would be a huge loss if he sacrificed himself here for Pan Ruoyin!
Tian Jing's face was also pale, but her breathing was steady, much better than Huang Sheng's.
It’s not that she wasn’t afraid, but she knew very well that Song Jinan was the male protagonist, the son of destiny. Even if something happened to everyone, he would be safe. It was actually the safest to stay with him.
Song Jinan frowned slightly and handed the lantern in his hand to Huang Sheng: "Don't be afraid."
Huang Sheng's legs were shaking, his mind was close to collapse: "How can I not be afraid? Pan Ruoyin is definitely not on the mountain. Even if she really risked her life to climb the mountain and got lost, we probably won't even be able to find her legs if we go looking for her now. Is it worth it to sacrifice myself?"
Hearing this, Song Jinan was stunned.
Tian Jing glanced at Huang Sheng and said nothing. She just stood behind Song Jinan to express her position.
Huang Sheng is just an insignificant little character in the book. He is considered a lackey of Song Jinan and has little presence. His thoughts are not important at all. On the contrary, if he goes back alone at this time, something bad will definitely happen.
Song Jinan was about to speak when he suddenly heard noisy footsteps not far behind him.
Huang Sheng was overjoyed: "Someone is coming?!"
After he finished speaking, he hurriedly shouted towards the source of the sound: "Here, here! We are here! Is someone coming?!"
Perhaps they heard his voice, the footsteps were getting closer and closer. Soon, a group of young men from the village appeared from the messy path holding lanterns. The large number of people dispelled Huang Sheng's fear and made him feel like he had survived a calamity.
Although Huang Sheng didn't recognize these people, he thought they looked familiar, so he asked, "Are you here to look for us?"
The leader shook his head and said, "Gu Yuehuai went to find the branch secretary and told him that a female comrade from your educated youth point was missing. The branch secretary called on all the members of the team to look for her. How dare you go up the mountain by yourself? It's too dangerous!"
Song Jinan was startled: "Gu... Yuehuai?"
Huang Sheng was also a little surprised: "Isn't Gu Yuehuai the worst offender of Pan Ruoyin? Why is she helping to find someone? But she is smart and knows to find the Party Secretary. Fortunately, Fifth Brother, let's just follow the main group. It's safer with more people!"
Song Jinan nodded silently. His expression was unclear in the darkness and it was unknown what he was thinking.
Tian Jing was standing behind Song Jinan. When she heard him say Gu Yuehuai's name, her heart sank and she couldn't help biting her lips hard. She had originally thought that she could become familiar to Song Jinan because of Pan Ruoyin, but she didn't expect to fail in the end!
She only thought about going out with Song Jinan to look for someone, but she never thought of asking the branch secretary for help, which made Gu Yuehuai steal the spotlight again!
The few of them walked a long way along the mountain road. There were many of them and they made a lot of noise, but no blind wolves or wild boars came out to join in the fun. When daybreak came, everyone's clothes were soaked with dew.
Someone in the crowd said, "Let's go back. We've been looking all night. Maybe we've found him down the mountain."
Song Jinan frowned, looked at the distant mountains and forests, but didn't say anything about continuing to look for someone.
Tian Jing said: "Song Zhiqing, let's go back and take a look."
Huang Sheng also pounded his aching legs and said, "Let's go back. We've been working all night and we're exhausted. How are we going to work today?"
Song Jinan sighed, a hint of helplessness flashed in his brown eyes, and he nodded.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and headed down the mountain. The return journey was obviously much faster. By the time they reached the foot of the mountain, it was already daybreak. The team had a long holiday today, so no members were working on the ridges of the fields.
As soon as everyone returned to the village, they heard someone shouting, "Pan Zhiqing has been found!"
