Luo Qingyuan: "Hasn't the cordon been set up? Quickly send someone to block them; they can't accept any interviews."
Cheng Suisui frowned as well: "Nanshan covers a large area, I'm afraid it won't hold out for long, and..."
"I'm afraid those sasaeng fans will get emotional."
Cheng Suisui: "Boss, you'd better stay in the car. You can't show your face in front of the media and the public..."
"There's no other way now, we can only wait."
"The directors of survival shows have all cowered like quails."
Luo Qingyuan found it really hard not to be angry, but getting angry and trying to find fault was useless now. Just like Cheng Suisui said, all she could do now was wait.
Luo Qingyuan returned to the car and closed the window.
A moment later, Liu Yan brought even worse news, handing the tablet in his hand to Luo Qingyuan.
"Boss, the news that Nanxing, Chen Yuan and Su Jiale have gone missing has topped the trending list. There is a flood of criticism on the internet, all directed at the survival show, saying that the show doesn't treat the lives of celebrities as human lives."
Luo Qingyuan frowned as she finished reading. The trending topic was soaring, and now the top three trending searches were all about celebrities going missing.
Luo Qingyuan sighed, "Let's wait a little longer. If they still haven't sent any news in an hour, let's activate the emergency plan."
One hour…
Liu Yan's expression was serious: "An hour is too long. It's no secret that Henglun is a financial backer of the survival show. I'm afraid that before long, the public opinion that was attacking the survival show will turn against Henglun."
"Boss, this will cause Henglun's stock price to drop."
Cheng Suisui frowned: "This is the most serious consequence."
The decline in Henglun's stock price affects all of Henglun's companies; it's a case of one small thing causing a huge ripple effect.
Even though the Luo family is wealthy, a drop in stock price is a ticking time bomb; losses exceeding 100 million are unacceptable.
Luo Qingyuan rubbed her aching temples and, after only two minutes of thought, came up with a solution.
"Get everyone involved and direct public opinion towards the disappearance of the celebrity. Delete any mention of Henglun Group immediately."
Liu Yan immediately nodded: "Understood."
Luo Qingyuan looked at Cheng Suisui: "Go and drag out the director of the survival show. If the media riots, throw him out to block them."
Cheng Suisui: "I understand."
Liu Yan and Cheng Suisui had both left, and Luo Qingyuan hadn't even had a chance to catch her breath when her phone rang.
Upon closer inspection, Luo Qingyuan realized it was actually her older brother's.
As soon as the call connected, Luo Qingyuan heard her older brother's voice, which was filled with suppressed anger: "Luo Qingyuan, is what's trending on social media true? Chen Yuan really has disappeared?"
Just what I feared most has come to pass...
Luo Qingyuan couldn't help but close her eyes: "Yuanyuan has indeed lost contact, but..."
Luo Shuyang interrupted Luo Qingyuan directly: "No buts. Your sister-in-law and I are leaving for China in an hour. When we land at Z City Airport, you must mobilize all your forces in Beijing to find Chen Yuan. Understand?"
Luo Qingyuan was practically on the verge of tears: "I understand, but..."
"Beep beep beep..." The phone call was disconnected.
Luo Qingyuan's heart was pounding in her chest.
Once Luo Shuyang returns to China, she doesn't even dare to imagine how horribly she and Duan Ye will die.
Luo Qingyuan could only pray that she could find Chen Yuan and the other two within an hour.
At this moment, Duan Ye was searching along a mountain path with the rescue team, followed by Liu Jie and Lin Feng.
The three brothers got together again.
The rescue team member said, "Comrade Duan, how did you know about this path? We've almost turned this mountain upside down, and we still haven't found it."
Duan Ye said, "I've been here before when I was hiking."
Liu Jie: "Comrade, you don't know this, but my brother is a true road expert. No matter what road it is, once he's been there, he'll never forget it. He can find it even without a cell phone."
Lin Feng wholeheartedly agreed.
In the past, when the three of them went mountain climbing, Duan Ye was always the leader. No matter how complicated the route was, as long as he looked at the map, he would not get lost.
The sense of security that Duan Ye provides is absolutely top-notch.
The rescue team members' eyes widened immediately: "Dude, with your skills, you'd be perfect for rescue work with us. You're even better than a map navigation system!"
Duan Ye felt a little embarrassed; this seemed to be the second time someone had said this to him.
Just as Duan Ye was about to say something, the rescue team members suddenly shut their mouths: "Wait."
So everyone stopped in their tracks.
The path ahead was obscured by branches bent low by the rain, so they couldn't see the way forward, but everyone could hear voices.
"Su Jiale, it's all your fault! You insisted on pursuing some kind of realism and went deep into the mountains. Now look what's happened—we're soaked to the bone, and who knows how long it'll take to get down..."
Another voice spoke, a low, hoarse voice, as if there was something wrong with the throat, but…
Duan Ye immediately recognized whose voice it was.
Nanxing: "Yuanyuan, this road is the right way down the mountain. We've been out of contact for so long, someone will definitely come looking for us. Let's wait a little longer..."
Because the voice was so low and hoarse, like Donald Duck quacking, neither Lin Feng nor Liu Jie recognized who it was.
until…
Nanxing and Duanye faced each other face to face.
Nanxing was stunned, and Duan Ye was also stunned the moment he saw Nanxing.
Chen Yuan was overjoyed: "Oh my god! Rescue team members! We're finally saved!"
Su Jiale smiled too, as if he had survived a disaster.
