The others on the other side realized that they had been waiting for a long time but Su Jin and Luo Feifei had not arrived.
"What happened? Where did they go?"
"Let's talk to the director. Isn't it supposed to have a defined location?"
Gu Xingze couldn't sit still any longer. "I'm going to find her."
Lin Shi stopped him, "What if you get lost too? Wouldn't that just increase your workload?"
"No? Why didn't you stop him?" Gu Xingze pointed to Shen Yanxiu, who was walking further and further away.
Lin Shi replied matter-of-factly, "He's her boyfriend."
Gu Xingze was speechless.
"I... I'm still her ex-husband!"
"ah?"
Lin Shi didn't understand his logic.
Gu Xingze had already run into the mountains while she wasn't paying attention, moving as nimbly as a dog.
Lin Shi wasn't in such a hurry as they were. Since Su Jin disappeared with Luo Feifei, she must be carrying out her plan.
As Shen Yanxiu ran, he called out, "Ajin! Where are you?"
After running a distance, I still didn't see a single person.
Shen Yanxiu's gaze fell upon a dark thicket of thorns, and he stepped into it without hesitation.
"A-Jin? Su-Jin! Are you inside?"
After carefully observing the area and confirming that no one was around, Shen Yanxiu slowly retreated, the thorns on the weeds catching on his skin and leaving bloody marks.
"What did you do?"
Gu Xingze looked at Shen Yanxiu with disdain, "You're already ugly, and now you've scratched your face. She'll feel sorry for you if she sees it. You did it on purpose, didn't you?"
Shen Yanxiu said coldly, "If we split up to search, it will get dark soon."
"You don't need to tell me."
...
Su Jin tried to save herself, but the hillside was not like a climbing gym with few protrusions; it was more like a smooth surface.
There was no foothold at all. I tried several times but slid down every time. I couldn't find a way out and just wasted my energy.
Su Jin leaned against Luo Feifei's 'corpse', panting and resting.
The only difference between Luo Feifei and a corpse is that she is still breathing.
Su Jin glanced at the bracelet on her wrist.
I hope the director didn't screw her over...
She vaguely heard someone calling her name.
Su Jin replied excitedly, "Here it is!"
"A Jin?"
Shen Yanxiu's voice was hoarse from shouting; it sounded like a cello playing out of tune.
He scrambled and crawled to the hillside, but he couldn't see below through the layers of branches.
"Ah Jin, are you alright? Where are you hurt?"
Su Jin called out, "It's nothing, just a scrape."
"Ajin, I'm coming to save you now."
He was so nervous that he lost his judgment and actually thought about jumping down.
"Don't come down! Go find someone! What will we do if you come down?"
us?
Shen Yanxiu regained his senses. "Is there anyone else?"
Su Jin found it unbelievable, "You didn't even notice that two people were missing?"
He didn't realize that he was only focused on Su Jin, and he probably wouldn't have reacted much to the deaths of others in front of him.
"Okay, I'll go find help. Be careful and come back right away."
Su Jin took the opportunity to check on Luo Feifei's injuries. She had hit her head when she fell, which was why she was unconscious.
After a while, instead of being rescued, she was greeted by Gu Xingze.
"Su Jin! Su Jin!"
She didn't intend to respond to him; she'd just let him keep looking.
"Honey! If you don't reply to me, I'll assume you still love me!"
"Get lost! Who loves you?"
Gu Xingze was overjoyed and ran towards the source of the sound, "Wife?"
Su Jin: "..."
She regrets it terribly now.
Gu Xingze continued to call out to her relentlessly, "Jinjin, wife, I'm going to save you right now, wait for me."
Su Jin wondered if he was going to jump down too.
A piece of rope came into her view.
"I climbed up by holding onto the rope, and then tied the other end to the tree."
I never thought he actually had a brain.
Su Jin climbed up through layers of branches.
Gu Xingze anxiously held her, looking her over from left to right, "Where are you hurt? Where does it hurt?"
Seeing a scratch on the back of her hand, Gu Xingze gently took her hand in his. "It must hurt a lot... I'm sorry I'm late."
Su Jin pulled her hand back. "...Have you finished pretending? It's just a small injury, why are you so nervous?"
Gu Xingze's hands were empty, and so was his heart.
"...I wasn't pretending."
"Yeah?"
Su Jin had no intention of leaving. He asked her, "What's wrong? Does it still hurt somewhere?"
Su Jin looked at him strangely, "There's still someone down there, why would I leave? You didn't know that either?"
Gu Xingze asked in surprise, "There's someone else? Who?"
Is Luo Feifei really that insignificant?
If she hadn't fallen in the same place as Su Jin, her body probably would have decomposed before anyone even knew it.
Su Jin observed a moment of silence for her.
The rescue team brought by Shen Yanxiu pulled Luo Feifei out of the water.
They said they were going to send the wounded to the hospital, and Su Jin was sent there as well.
Shen Yanxiu naturally wanted to accompany her.
Gu Xingze also squeezed in.
The medical staff in the vehicle asked, "Who are you two to her?"
Shen Yanxiu said first, "Her boyfriend."
Gu Xingze scoffed, "What kind of family member is a boyfriend?"
The medical staff asked, "And who are you?"
"Her ex-husband."
The medical staff bluntly stated, "Even if they're divorced, then none of you are her family members anymore?"
"……Um."
Neither of them looked at the other, and Su Jin awkwardly covered her face.
How come getting married is like having a criminal record?
Upon arriving at the hospital, the doctor performed an examination and then asked her to stay for observation for two days.
