When the elderly man was rescued, he was already dying due to a head injury and severe hypothermia, and was only holding on by a trace of willpower.
Helen's eyes were red as she asked Shen Xingwan for help: "Miss Shen, can the boss still be saved?"
Shen Xingwan hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to tell the truth: "If you are lucky, there is still hope."
Helen and Yuri looked at each other, a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
"Miss Shen, I know the boss doesn't trust you and has hurt you before, but if we want to find the young master, the boss is indispensable. Can I ask you..."
Helen lost her confidence at the end.
She knew that no one would save someone who repeatedly pointed a gun at them.
Shen Xingwan glanced at the older man.
For her, the existence of this man was the biggest threat to her life. If he died, it would be easy for him to escape given the trust and vigilance of the remaining people.
but……
One should not be ungrateful.
If he hadn't jumped down and stabilized the kayak, she would have been swept into the current, hit her head, and suffered severe hypothermia.
"You guys treat his head trauma and stop the bleeding as soon as possible. I'll give him acupuncture. As for whether he can wake up, it all depends on his luck."
As Shen Xingwan spoke, she took out her acupuncture kit.
Helen and Yuri brothers were both shocked. They didn't expect that Shen Xingwan was really willing to repay evil with kindness and save their boss.
He was even more convinced of Shen Xingwan's character and had complete faith in her.
After acupuncture, the elderly man's complexion looked much better, and after about half an hour, he finally woke up from his coma.
He looked at the people surrounding him, obviously a little surprised.
"Am I still alive?"
Yuri nodded and said, "Boss, you are still alive and well. It was Miss Shen who found you and it was Miss Shen who saved you with acupuncture."
Helen immediately joined in: "That's right, Boss, I'm sure Miss Shen must be a good person!"
The elder looked at Shen Xingwan with a complicated look: "I won't appreciate your kindness. When we find the young master, if you have deceived us, I will kill you first and then end my own life, and give this life back to you!"
"Boss!" Helen and Yuri said in unison. They didn't understand why the boss always had such a big prejudice against Shen Xingwan.
Shen Xingwan seemed to have expected this. She wiped the silver needle and pulled the corner of her lip.
"No need. You saved my life by jumping down just now. Now I've saved yours, and we're even now."
Shen Xingwan now finally understood why Young Master White liked to settle favors with him so much. When dealing with these people, one really had to settle the favors.
Because their blood is cold and they have no emotions at all.
The kayak finally reached the shore before the sun set.
Everyone looked back at the road they had come from, which had now been flooded and was completely unrecognizable.
The elder sighed, "We finally found a clue about the young master, but it's gone now. I don't know if he managed to escape the mudslide..."
Yuri was quite optimistic: "The young master is much better at surviving in the wild than we are. There will definitely be no problem."
Helen also nodded: "The young master left a message, which means that the master is nearby. As long as we keep looking, we will definitely find the young master!"
"I hope so..." The older man sighed.
Shen Xingwan listened to their words quietly, feeling secretly happy in her heart.
This landslide invisibly bought her a lot of time. She had to find a way to escape quickly and reunite with her grandfather.
It was getting dark. Fortunately, they were many in number and had enough supplies, so they found a cave and could spend the night.
The number of patients increased from one to two, and Shen Xingwan's life did become better.
Perhaps out of a change of heart or guilt, the elder no longer tied her hands with the rope, and Shen Xingwan can now walk freely.
However, the older man kept staring at her.
Whenever she was about to disappear from the sight of the elders, he would call her loudly to attract everyone's attention. In this situation, Shen Xingwan naturally could not escape.
She waited until night, ate the freshly hunted venison, and after a hearty meal, lay down on the simple bed they had prepared.
Although she closed her eyes, she didn't fall asleep. She was still waiting for the opportunity.
She waited and waited...
When everyone's voices died down, the surroundings became silent.
Shen Xingwan knew that the best time had come.
She quietly got up and tiptoed towards the cave entrance.
She vaguely heard intermittent voices coming from behind her, which was a sign that someone was about to wake up, but the door to victory was just ahead.
As long as she walked out of this cave, she would be able to escape successfully.
Even if they woke up and found that she was not there, it would be too late to chase her out!
Shen Xingwan had everything planned out and strode towards the cave entrance of freedom. However, the moment she was bathed in the moonlight, she was dumbfounded.
The bonfire crackled, and a girl was sitting beside it. It was Helen.
Hearing the noise, Helen subconsciously turned her head, and the moment she saw Shen Xingwan, she jumped up excitedly.
"Miss Shen, why did you come out? Can't sleep?"
Shen Xingwan blinked, her heart full of doubts.
Helen was sitting at the entrance of the cave and was not asleep. Why didn't she hear Helen's thoughts?
Is she just like Young Master White, unable to let her hear her true feelings?
However, this idea was quickly rejected by Shen Xingwan.
Because at this moment, Helen's voice, like the lark, continuously poured into her ears.
[Why is Miss Chen still awake so late? Is she missing the Young Master, or did she dream about him and wake up?]
[Miss Shen loves the Young Master so much. She is so pitiful. It would be great if she could find the Young Master as soon as possible.]
[Miss Chen and the eldest young master are having a baby. I'm so happy! I'm going to have a little master soon!]
[Miss Shen doesn't look well. Could she be feeling unwell?]
"Miss Shen, are you okay?" Helen walked towards Shen Xingwan with a worried look on her face.
The corner of Shen Xingwan's mouth twitched, and he smiled and shook his head: "I'm fine, it's just that people have three urgent needs."
Helen slapped her head and said, “I forgot to tell Miss Shen that we made a simple device in the cave that can be used as a temporary solution.”
Shen Xingwan looked outside the cave. Not far away was a half-meter-high bush. As long as she could run there, it would not be easy for these people to find her.
She smiled shyly: "There are some grown men in here, I thought, why not go outside to take care of it."
Helen suddenly realized: "How could I forget this! This really makes Miss Shen embarrassed."
Shen Xingwan nodded in agreement, then started walking impatiently: "I'll be right back."
