Chapter 249 "What's Wrong?"
Lin Shutang heard the cry for help more than ten minutes after Li Yansheng left.
"Help, is there anyone, please save me." A faint female voice came from the bushes not far away.
The voice was so quiet that Lin Shutang wasn't sure if it was Zhang Wanxin. But whether it was or not, it was a life after all, and she wasn't going to sit idly by. She stood up and decided to check.
Whether she could help or not was not a big deal, but at least she had to find out where the person was and what condition they were in. So, she followed the source of the sound.
However, the road became increasingly difficult to walk on, and when we got to the end, there was no road at all.
Lin Shutang stopped and wondered where to go. Then, he noticed that the sound that had just stopped started again.
She walked forward a little further, and then she found that the sound stopped again.
She paused, a guess forming in her mind. Sure enough, not long after, the cries for help began to ring out again.
So, without hesitation, she turned around and returned the same way.
When I returned to the place I was before, Li Yansheng and the other two were already there.
Sure enough, Zhang Wanxin was standing there fine.
Lin Shutang heard her say, "Don't worry, Shutang won't go far."
Then, she turned her head carelessly and was the first to spot Lin Shutang. She called out, "Shutang."
Li Yansheng turned around and saw Lin Shutang coming out of the alley. He immediately went over to check on her. Seeing that she had no injuries, he felt relieved.
"Where did you go?"
Lin Shutang could tell there was displeasure in Li Yansheng's voice, so he immediately turned around and pointed in the direction he had just been in to explain, "I heard someone calling for help, and I thought it was Sister Wanxin, so I went over to check."
Li Yansheng and Chen Jinyao exchanged a glance. Then, Chen Jinyao said, "Let's go take a look."
Just as the two of them started walking, Li Yansheng seemed to remember something. He turned back and warned Lin Shutang, "Wait here, don't run around."
Lin Shutang nodded obediently: "Okay."
After the two men had walked some distance away, Zhang Wanxin said with amusement, "Shutang, are you afraid of Yansheng?"
Lin Shutang pursed his lips awkwardly, and said with a slight blush on his face: "No, I just don't want him to be angry."
More than ten minutes later, Li Yansheng and Chen Jinyao returned. Zhang Wanxin asked, "How was it?"
Chen Jinyao shook his head with a serious expression.
Seeing this, Zhang Wanxin's expression changed and she said nothing more.
When going down the mountain, Li Yansheng didn't say a word to Lin Shutang the whole time.
Seeing Lin Shutang following him carefully, Zhang Wanxin felt a little sorry for him and wanted to persuade Li Yansheng, but was stopped by Chen Jinyao.
"Don't worry, let them solve their own problems." As he spoke, he noticed the movement in front of him and pointed his chin towards them again: "Hey, isn't this good?"
Zhang Wanxin looked over and saw Li Yansheng carrying Lin Shutang down from a relatively high place.
Li Yansheng didn't speak to Lin Shutang until he returned to the B&B, packed his things and got in the car.
Li Yansheng didn't have a bad habit of using the cold shoulder. As far as he could remember, the last time he'd been so cold was when she'd been caught in the rain on her way to school. He couldn't get in touch with her, and on the way to pick her up from school, he didn't speak to her the entire time.
Oh, no, last time he said something, asking her to get in the car. This time, he didn't say a word at all, obviously he was even angrier than last time.
Lin Shutang was thinking about this and fell asleep unconsciously. When he returned home, it was already 11 o'clock in the evening.
She felt herself being carried out of the car in a daze. When she opened her eyes, she saw Li Yansheng's clear profile and jawline, so she said, "I didn't mean to do that. Please don't be angry, okay? I know I was wrong."
Hearing the little girl's soft and sleepy voice of pleading, Li Yansheng's originally stern face immediately softened.
As if helpless, he sighed and then said, "What's wrong?"
Lin Shutang: "I shouldn't put myself in danger."
His attitude of admitting his mistake was quite good. Li Yansheng put the man on the bed and said again: "Remember, always put yourself first."
"good."
[A side note: The inspiration for this mountain climbing story came from a short video where the blogger chased a hat to the edge of a cliff, but then left when he sensed something was wrong. It suggests that people should trust their sixth sense and move away immediately if they sense danger.]
