Chi Yan drove away and Jiang Sui returned to the village. The search and rescue team searched for a whole day but found nothing. The anxiety on her uncle’s face became more and more serious.
As a result, the people came back by themselves that night.
In the distance, a tall figure walked towards them in the night.
Someone exclaimed, “Someone is back!”
Everyone who stayed in the village waiting for people rushed out and saw Gao Jun.
His down jacket was covered in snow and his whole body was covered in mud. This little star, who was usually trying to look good, had his hair in a mess and his knees were worn out. He looked very miserable, but there was a fire burning in his eyes, as if he would never fall down because of some obsession.
Someone shouted loudly: “It’s Gao Jun, Gao Jun is back.”
Everyone ran over to support him, but Gao Jun couldn’t stand up anymore when he saw the crowd, and he fell down, holding his hands behind him. Only then did everyone see that he was carrying a pale girl on his back.
The uncle said in a trembling voice: “A Xue, my A Xue.”
When Gao Jun fell, everyone was in a panic. Jiang Sui couldn’t squeeze into the crowd. From afar, she could only see Jiang Xue’s bloody hands and the stubbornness and hidden fire in Gao Jun’s eyes.
Jiang Sui had heard Jiang Xue say many times that Gao Jun didn’t like her and always said that she was shameless and that he was very annoyed with her. However, what she saw today didn’t seem to be the case.
Jiang Sui knew how cold it was on the mountain, and she also knew how long the way down the mountain was. Gao Jun was so seriously injured, but he still carried Jiang Xue down the mountain. This kind of perseverance was far beyond what ordinary people could have.
The two injured people were quickly sent for treatment. The doctor said that Jiang Xue’s hands were almost pierced and destroyed, but fortunately she was rescued in time. Gao Jun’s condition was not very good either. He had serious internal and external injuries.
They were receiving treatment, and the next day the search and rescue team sent another piece of news: a missing staff member fell into the valley and was found with only a breath left. Song Di was also found, but he seemed to have been even unluckier, falling into a wild animal trap and having one leg pierced.
Once something like this happened, the program team was obviously not able to continue shooting and were even severely punished.
Her uncle said angrily: “They were just deceiving people before! Although it was New Year’s Day, they didn’t call the police at all. They were afraid that all their investments would be withdrawn if the news got out. They put the blame on others. Fortunately, your father and I called the police, and the search and rescue people arrived immediately.” Everyone was panicked when they heard that Jiang Xue was missing, so they didn’t care about others and went up the mountain to look for people by themselves. As a result, so many things happened later, and it was not unfair for the program crew to be scolded to death.
Fortunately, there was no danger and everyone survived.
This year was a great year, but Jiang Sui spent most of the time in the hospital taking care of Jiang Xue.
Jiang Sui later found out what happened. They were much unluckier than Jiang Sui. There were some very old rotten trees on Pengluo Mountain. Occasionally, rocks would fall from the mountain and hit the rotten trees. They were either hit by the rocks or crushed by the rotten trees.
Among the three of them, Jiang Xue reacted the fastest. When she heard something was wrong, she subconsciously hugged Gao Jun’s head.
This girl’s thinking was very strange. In her opinion, as long as the person’s head was protected, he would survive no matter what. However, at the brink of life and death, she was cursing Gao Jun in her heart one moment and hugging his head the next moment.
No one else could do this, but Jiang Xue could.
Gao Jun’s face darkened, his heart trembled, and he pushed her out with his backhand. The wood hit Gao Jun on the back and he was pressed into the snow.
Gao Jun asked her to go, but Jiang Xue dug a hole while crying, determined to rescue Gao Jun.
However, she still remembered to curse: “You deserve it for disliking me and pushing me away.”
Gao Jun almost couldn’t catch his breath and fainted as she cursed.
By the time Gao Jun woke up again, the staff member who had gone to look for rescue had not returned yet, and he was wearing Jiang Xue’s coat. While she was still tirelessly trying to dig him out.
Gao Jun had a sullen face and said nothing to her. Jiang Xue wouldn’t listen anyway. He was pinned down and couldn’t move. By the time Jiang Xue really rescued him, she was so tired that she couldn’t even lift a finger.
Gao Jun carried her on his back and walked down the mountain.
Jiang Xue ate the apple peeled by Jiang Sui: “Do you think he is looking for trouble? He had to despise me and push me away. I guess he learned a lesson by being suppressed.”
Jiang Sui felt that something was wrong, but it still seemed right, so she said, “But he carried you down.”
Jiang Xue smiled wryly: “I know, he woke up once in the middle, and I said that since it’s like this, why not just be together. But damn, he still wants to be a star! What a fu**ing star!”
F**k you Gao Jun.
Jiang Sui: Phew.
In the second half of the winter vacation, Jiang Xue’s health improved, and she was finally not so depressed. Jiang Xue was an optimist, and that thing was over, so she never mentioned it again.
When school was about to start, she asked Jiang Sui, “Are you going to take the college entrance examination soon?”
Jiang Sui said: “Well, in June this year.”
“Time flies, you have grown up.” Jiang Xue sighed.
In the spring of March, the shopping mall outside Jiang Sui’s school finally opened.
Her roommates were all very excited, and even though they couldn’t afford to buy anything, they all went to show their support and shop. However, unexpectedly, many of the hidden rich second-generations in No. 9 Middle School went on a spending spree, and the mall was doing quite well for a while.
The three-layer pearls were particularly beautiful.
The people of Hengxia Island didn’t kill the clams when they collected pearls, and they put a lot of effort into raising each clam. Even if the clams could not produce pearls, they would arrange a good home for them.
Chi Yiming had not been able to negotiate for this batch of pearls before, but unexpectedly, Chi Yan put some samples on display in the mall outside No. 9 Middle School.
Chi Yan did not advertise, but gradually gained word of mouth and admiration among students. He was waiting for an opportunity to come.
Hengxia Island had the best pearls in the world, but their processing technology was so crude that they became the largest supplier rather than the businessmen who directly benefited from it. Chi Yan has different ideas from San Ye. He did not want to sell pearls, he wanted to have his own new market.
Rather than just selling these pearls, Chi Yan wanted to invest more in design and craftsmanship.
Duan Tianhai’s health had been deteriorating in recent years. Duan Ling was his only heir. Her family was quite wealthy, and even if she squandered it, it would be enough for her to live on for a lifetime.
Duan Ling dropped out of school in her freshman year. She then became addicted to plastic surgery and dressing up and was almost overwhelmed by her desire to shop.
In March, Duan Ling heard the news and came to the mall, and was stunned by the golden pearls in the glass window.
She raised her chin: “I want that one.”
The salesgirl was embarrassed: “That is not for sale.”
Duan Ling: “I’m offering twice the price. What? You don’t even want to make money? What’s the meaning of your expression? Tell someone who has the final say to come and talk to me.”
The salesgirl glanced at the bodyguard following her and had no choice but to call the manager.
This incident caused quite a stir. There were already many people in the mall, and everyone was watching the fun quietly. Jiang Sui’s roommate Deng Shan said: “Maybe she doesn’t really want it, she just wants to express her specialness.”
Wang Lan also nodded in agreement.
Jiang Sui didn’t recognize Duan Ling at first. After all, she was addicted to plastic surgery. Duan Ling’s face now had a pointed chin, double eyelids, and a nose that was raised with hyaluronic acid injections. She didn’t look like her from before at all.
It was Duan Ling who recognized Jiang Sui.
Duan Ling used to be arrogant but had low self-esteem. She had become beautiful now, but this artificial beauty was so fake that sometimes even her smile looked stiff.
In the past two years, Duan Ling had finally become less self-abased. However, when she saw Jiang Sui, she was stunned at first, and then her face looked ugly.
Jiang Sui still looked youthful and lively. She stood with the students, with a simple ponytail and living a pure and innocent life.
The world made Jiang Sui clean and calm. Looking from afar, you could tell that Jiang Sui was satisfied and happy.
In such a noisy environment at this moment, Duan Ling was obviously the protagonist, but more people were quietly looking at Jiang Sui.
The salesgirl called the manager over, but Duan Ling was slightly angry: “I won’t buy anymore!”
She left with her bodyguards, leaving the salesgirl blushing. In fact, Duan Ling’s purpose of coming here today was not for a pearl. What good things had she not seen?
She knew who she was doing this for.
The man who followed her around that year and was treated like a dog by her had now become someone she could not reach.
The entire R city knew that the heir of the Third Master was arrogant and cold, and rarely extended an olive branch to anyone. Duan Ling was somewhat unwilling to accept this.
Chi Yiming appeared at this time and said to Duan Ling: “You want to be with him, okay, I will help you.”
Duan Ling looked at him suspiciously. What did Chi Yiming want to do?
Now she couldn’t afford to offend either of the two brothers of the Chi family.
Chi Yiming said, “There will be a cocktail party in two days, hosted by Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen may not be powerful, but he is kind and friendly. Chi Yan will go, and I will go too. I will get you an invitation and you can go too.”
He glanced at Duan Ling’s back, saw her say okay, and sighed.
Chi Yiming finally guessed what Chi Yan was thinking these past two days. For him, he must not let Chi Yan gain a foothold, otherwise losing this business would be a small matter. After Chi Yan went at it alone, Chi Yiming would never be able to get any pearls from Hengxia Island in his lifetime.
If he wanted to know how many people were attracted to invest, he would definitely go.
Before leaving on Wednesday, Chi Yiming saw Jiang Sui doing homework in the classroom. He leaned against the door and looked at her for a while.
The girl’s skin was delicate and fair, and in the spring sunshine of March, she looked just like a little peach blossom.
He smiled and walked over: “Hey, shall I take you to see some fun?”
Jiang Sui raised her head warily: “No.”
Chi Yiming: Oh, little Peach Blossom has become a bit temperamental now that she has grown up.
“You don’t even ask what the fun is about. Are you not curious, Jiang Sui?”
“I don’t want to know anything,” she said slowly, drawing a line with a ruler.
Chi Yiming smiled maliciously and pinched the tip of her pen: “It’s just fun, watching my brother get horny.” He said word by word, “For a calm and self-controlled person like him, this scene must be exciting, right?”
Jiang Sui looked at him blankly with a strange look in her eyes. To her, each and every one of them was difficult to understand and they were all crazy.
However, Chi Yiming didn’t know what was wrong with him, he just wanted to force Jiang Sui to go.
He was now lawless and almost walked out of the school half-holding her.
Chi Yiming started to change into his suit in the car. He took off his clothes slowly and glanced at Jiang Sui.
She turned her head suddenly and Chi Yiming laughed. He covered her head with his school uniform and watched her struggling angrily inside.
“Aren’t you unhappy to see me? It would be wrong for me not to help you.” As he said this, he put on his shirt and then his coat.
Jiang Sui pulled away, and when the school uniform on her head was suddenly taken off, revealing her red face and angry eyes, through the window in front of her, she saw the scene on the next floor.
A young girl in a white skirt was squatting there crying.
Such a familiar figure. She frowned and thought for a moment, and her expression slowly changed.
Chi Yiming’s eyes curved: “Look, does she look like you at first glance?”
