The air seemed to be paused by an invisible hand, and everyone fell silent. Finally, Shen Yi said tactfully, "Lu Yixuan and Lu Rongyu have some other reasons and left first. They won't be coming with us."
He Tingyu frowned slightly, a hint of confusion flashing in her eyes: "The variety show isn't over yet, how could Rongyu and Brother Yixuan leave first?"
Her gaze swept over Lu An'an, who was chatting and laughing with Lu Yanli, and instantly sharpened with accusation, her eyes fixed on Lu An'an. "Lu An'an! Did you do something! You drove Rongyu away...?"
"Shut up!"
A loud shout interrupted He Tingyu's unreasonable rant.
He Tingyu looked at He Beichen in disbelief. "He Beichen! You yelled at me?!"
He Beichen's eyes burned with raging anger, his tone as cold as ice: "If you say another word, I will tell Father everything you did here when I get back."
"you......"
He Tingyu's voice suppressed an indescribable anger, but upon noticing the seriousness and unquestionable look in He Beichen's eyes, that anger seemed to be doused with a bucket of cold water, turning into a cold laugh, and she fell silent.
Seeing that He Tingyu had calmed down, He Beichen turned to Captain Qi beside him, his tone carrying a hint of barely perceptible apology: "Captain Qi, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. We can set off now."
Lu An'an looked at He Beichen with a playful expression.
[Oh, it seems Lu Rongyu didn't manage to win over He Beichen because of the unexpected situation here. He still seems to be thinking straight.]
Lu An'an glanced at Gu Tingyan, who had remained silent the entire time, seemingly lost in thought.
[Tsk, the plot has gone way off track. The male lead isn't following the story, and the male supporting character is useless. My God's-eye view is completely pointless.]
Gu Tingyan noticed Lu An'an's gaze and asked with a puzzled look, "What's wrong?"
Lu An'an moved a little closer, covered her mouth with her hand, coughed lightly, and asked, "How do you feel about Lu Rongyu being taken away?"
Gu Tingyan was puzzled as to why Lu An'an would ask this question. He replied uncertainly, "Good job catching it?"
Lu An'an: "......"
[Damn, that was a good catch.]
For a moment, she was speechless, but then she asked, unwilling to give up, "Didn't you feel that heartache, anxiety, and the urge to rescue her immediately?"
Upon hearing this, Gu Tingyan's expression turned somewhat disgusted. "Do I look like an idiot to you?"
Lu An'an: "......"
Okay, that's for sure, the male lead has really deviated too far from his character!
Fu Zhiyan glanced at Gu Tingyan with some surprise. This kid is actually the male lead? Why?
Lu Yanli also wanted to know, why is Gu Gou the male lead? No, what exactly makes him so special?
Gu Tingyan looked at Lu An'an, who seemed quite disappointed, and a glint of malice flashed in his eyes. "Why do you think I need to save Lu Rongyu?"
Lu An'an casually replied, "Maybe it's because I'm sick."
Gu Tingyan: "..."
*
The group arrived at the seaside, where Lu's parents and Lu Wenjing were still waiting on the shore. They were relieved to see that Lu An'an and Lu Yanli had come down safely.
The production crew's cruise ship had already arrived, and Jin Fangguo, Jin Yan, and Director Xu went down to the deck and stood on the shore waiting for them.
Lu An'an feigned surprise and stepped forward, "Grandpa Jin?! What brings you and Jin Yan here too?"
Jin Fangguo smiled kindly, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes seeming to radiate warmth, "I saw that kid Zhiyan on the live broadcast and felt something was wrong, so I called Director Xu and found out that something had happened here. I was worried about you, so I came over."
Lu An'an smiled warmly: "I'm sorry to have worried Grandpa Jin."
Jin Fangguo's hearty laughter was like a spring breeze, and his eyes sparkled with approval: "You little girl, you always surprise this old man. You managed to rescue so many people all by yourself."
Lu An'an scratched her head sheepishly, then smiled proudly: "It's alright, Master praised me before, saying I'm the strongest in the sect!"
Jin Yan, standing to the side, exaggeratedly opened his mouth wide, "So An'an isn't the Lin Daiyu who buried flowers, but the Lu Daiyu who uprooted the willow tree?"
Lu An'an: ?
[That doesn't sound like a compliment.]
Lu Yanli: He actually thinks Jin Yan's words make a lot of sense!
"Beautiful and amazing older sister!"
The attention of the group was instantly drawn to the childish voice.
Lu An'an turned her head and saw the little girl who had begged her to save her sister in the basement running towards her with a smile brighter than any light, followed by the kind and brave girl.
Lu An'an squatted down, caught the little girl who ran over, pinched her cheek, and asked gently, "Why did you come here?"
The little girl held up a string of seashell bracelets she had been clutching and excitedly stuffed it into Lu An'an's hand. "I came to thank you, sister! Thank you for saving my sister. I want to be as amazing as you when I grow up!"
She pointed to the bracelet she had placed in Lu An'an's hand and said sweetly, "This is a bracelet I made by stringing together seashells I found after my sister and I arrived on the island. It's a gift for my sister!"
Lu An'an gazed at the bracelet in her palm, a surge of indescribable tenderness welling up inside her. Her voice softened even more: "Thank you. You will definitely become someone even more amazing than your sister in the future."
At this moment, the little girl's older sister also came over. Her eyes were filled with gratitude, and she bowed deeply to Lu An'an. Her voice trembled slightly with excitement: "Miss Lu, thank you for saving my sister and me."
Lu An'an stood up and helped the girl up, saying gently, "You're welcome. You saved yourself."
The girl wiped away her tears. "Thank you so much, Ms. Lu. If it weren't for you, I might..."
Lu An'an gently shook her head, comforting her: "Don't think too much about it, it's all in the past."
She gently turned the girl's shoulder toward the vast, boundless horizon, her voice as delicate yet powerful as the first warm ray of sunlight at dawn: "Look, the sun has risen, it's a new day, and you are a new you."
The girl stared blankly at the gradually spreading morning light. The golden sunlight shone on her face, as if illuminating her heart as well. She nodded gently, and tears streamed down her face, but they were no longer marks of sadness, but rather the hope of relief: "Yes, it's a new day. It's all over now, and everything should start anew."
Lu An'an looked at the girl who had regained her spirits with satisfaction and gently patted her shoulder.
She then watched them board the cruise ship home with the police, waving goodbye to them.
So how can we let those scumbags get away with it?
Fu Zhiyan's deep gaze fell on Lu An'an, "So how could you be the villainous female supporting character?"
The surrounding crowd was also touched by this sudden turn of events. Everyone's face was filled with complex emotions. Watching the figure gradually disappear into the distance, and then looking at the dawn that was gradually appearing on the horizon, time seemed to stand still, and everyone was stunned for a moment.
The sun is coming out.
