"Uncle, don't worry, we definitely won't tell anyone what you told us."
"Alright, since you're all honest, ask me anything you want. I'll tell you everything I know."
"Uncle, you just said that besides us, other people have also come looking for Wu De?"
"Yes, there are many, all young women like you. Just the day before yesterday and yesterday, a woman surnamed Su came to the factory and said she had something very important to discuss with Wu De."
Upon hearing the surname Su, Yu Yao and Fang Qiaoqiao were delighted and quickly asked, "Is her name Su Yu?"
"I think that's her name. She left her name specifically, saying that if Wu De came back, she should tell him that she had come to see him."
Yu Yao: "Did she say anything at the time? Did she leave any message for Wu De?"
The man thought for a moment, then shook his head. "No, she just gave us her name, asked us to pass on the message, and then left looking very disappointed."
Although Yu Yao and Fang Qiaoqiao were somewhat disappointed, the fact that Su Yu still came to see Wu De at this time at least showed that she and Wu De had a close relationship, making it more likely that Wu De was the father of the child.
After leaving the machinery factory, Yu Yao and Fang Qiaoqiao pushed their bicycles along the road.
“Yu Yao, should I make a call back? My mom knows Wu De’s mom, so she might know where Wu De’s home is. What if he’s hiding back in his hometown in Guangdong Province?”
Yu Yao nodded, "Okay, there's a post office right ahead, let's go there now."
Fang Qiaoqiao went to the post office to make a phone call.
Yu Yao waited for her outside, thinking about what to say if she ran into Su Yu.
After thinking for a long time, I still couldn't come up with any ideas. I could only react to their moves and see how they reacted.
She looked up at Fang Qiaoqiao, stood up and asked, "So, what did Aunt Lei say?"
Fang Qiaoqiao sighed, "My mother asked around, and Wu De didn't return to Guangdong Province. I'm sorry, Ayao, I couldn't help."
Yu Yao patted her shoulder, "It's okay, you've already helped me a lot by coming with me. Let's go to the Su family first."
Fang Qiaoqiao cheered, "Let's go."
Yu Yao had only heard Wu Wanying mention the Su family's address once; she only knew that it was in Lanwan Production Team, Xiangyang Commune.
The two rode their bicycles into the Lanwan Production Team.
Many people were working in the fields, and they all cast curious glances at the two riding brand-new bicycles.
"Hello, is this Lanwan Production Team? We are Su Yu's friends and we're looking for her. Do you know how to get to her house?"
Upon hearing that they had come to see Su Yu, everyone avoided eye contact, saying, "I don't know."
Seeing their embarrassment, an older woman kindly pointed to a stone thatched house hidden under a banana tree not far away, saying, "That's Su Yu's house."
After saying that, he turned and left without saying another word, as if Su Yu's family were some kind of monster that he didn't want to provoke.
This shows how unpopular the Su family was in the production team.
Yu Yao and Fang Qiaoqiao rode their bikes toward the Su family's house. As soon as they knocked on the door, Su's eldest sister-in-law saw that it was them and closed the door without saying a word.
No matter how much they knocked, they wouldn't open the door.
Having no other choice, the two turned around and decided to go to the alley where they had last met Su Yu and Wu De to see if they could find Wu De.
Just as they were riding their bicycles across the bridge, Fang Qiaoqiao suddenly called out, "Yu Yao, look, isn't that Su Yu?"
Yu Yao looked in the direction she was pointing.
It really was Su Yu.
Su Yu seemed not to see them, sitting on the reef staring blankly at the sea.
"Come on, Qiaoqiao, let's go find her."
Yu Yao and Fang Qiaoqiao parked their bicycles under the coconut trees on the beach and walked towards the reef where Su Yu was.
Even when we were still a few meters away, we heard people not far away shouting, "Help! Someone jumped into the sea!"
Yu Yao had a bad feeling. She looked up at the reef and, sure enough, there was no one there.
Without thinking, she quickly took off her coat and shoes and handed them to Fang Qiaoqiao, saying, "Qiaoqiao, hold these for me, I'm going to rescue someone."
After saying that, she ran towards the reef, scrambled up it in one stride, and looked out into the sea.
Fortunately, the tide was low today, and the sea was relatively calm, allowing Yu Yao to pinpoint Su Yu's location almost instantly.
Su Yu was already exhausted from being tossed around by the waves and was about to sink.
Yu Yao dared not delay any longer. She came down from the reef, spotted Su Yu's location, and swam towards her.
Fang Qiaoqiao stood on the reef, holding Yu Yao's clothes, watching Yu Yao rescue people, her heart pounding in her chest with tension.
Fishermen who were gathering seafood nearby heard the commotion and came over. When they saw Yu Yao rescuing someone, they went down to help.
The two men dragged the unconscious Su Yu toward the shore.
By the time Su Yu was dragged ashore, Yu Yao was already panting heavily.
The fisherman who had helped with the rescue looked at Su Yu's condition and shook his head. "It's too late. She's not breathing or having a heartbeat. Let's call the police!"
Fang Qiaoqiao turned pale upon hearing this.
Upon hearing this, Yu Yao struggled to walk to Su Yu's side and began performing CPR and artificial respiration on her.
Considering that she was pregnant, Yu Yao raised her hand slightly higher to avoid hurting the baby in her womb.
Time slips away unnoticed.
Before anyone knew it, a crowd had gathered around, mostly local villagers or children who were out gathering seafood. They all silently shook their heads as they watched Yu Yao rescue the person.
The fisherman who had been helping Yu Yao with the rescue said, "Comrade, ten minutes have passed. It's no use. They can't save him."
"Yes, you've done your best. She's determined to die. Who can snatch someone from the clutches of the King of Hell?"
