Back to Binjiang No.1

Chen Xiao called Su Tang back, but no one answered for a long time.

Just as he was about to hang up, Lin Yanyu's voice rang out.

"Hello? Is, is that the boss?"

"Mm, where's Su Zong?"

"Su Zong is asleep, please wait a moment while I wake her up."

"No rush, where are you? Why does it sound so noisy?"

"Oh, we just flew to Kangding, and now we're driving to National Highway 318 to find you."

"......" Chen Xiao.

"Why did you come all this way?"

Lin Yanyu said, "After Su Zong lost contact with you, she called Thunder's satellite phone and learned that you encountered a landslide. She immediately rushed over and hasn't slept for two days and two nights. She just got in the car, which is why she's asleep."

Lin Yanyu was worried Chen Xiao would misunderstand Su Tang, so she specifically explained for her.

Chen Xiao felt a warmth in his heart and said, "You guys go back to Shu City and wait for me. I'm safe now and will fly directly to Shu City."

"Oh, okay boss, then I'll tell the driver to turn around."

"Mm, go ahead."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Xiao called his family and a few other women back, then took his phone and walked out of the room.

After the villagers' treatment, the middle-aged couple's condition improved greatly.

They were also lying on chairs outside, wrapped in quilts, enjoying the warm sunlight.

Neither group mentioned what happened before, instead chatting about the unfinished journey.

Tian Shuman didn't know what it was, but she found Chen Xiao particularly pleasing to the eye. Despite her pale face, she couldn't help but ask.

"Young man, do you have a girlfriend?"

Chen Xiao: "......"

"Hahahaha......" Zhang Meng laughed, "Auntie, Chen Xiao has many girlfriends, which one are you asking about?"

Lu Xingchen said, "See, I said Chen Xiao isn't suitable for our daughter. A boy needs to be devoted to be reliable."

Chen Xiao was speechless. I didn't say anything, yet you guys are making things up in your heads.

Tian Shuman rolled her eyes at him, "What's wrong with being a playboy? Old Lu, can you guarantee that I'm your only one? No other women outside?"

Lu Xingchen's whole body trembled, "Of course, how could I have any other women?"

Tian Shuman rolled her eyes at him, "The more excellent a man is, the greater the temptation he faces. How many can resist it? As long as this man has the ability to protect his women, that's enough."

"Otherwise, what's the use of following a man who runs away first when trouble strikes, even if he has no other women his entire life?"

Chen Xiao's heart stirred, thinking that this auntie saw things very clearly.

Although Lu Xingchen verbally denied it, Chen Xiao, also a man, still noticed his guilt from the subtle details.

This auntie knew Old Lu had an affair but chose to accept it.

Perhaps she hadn't felt comfortable saying it before, but after this near-death experience, she took the opportunity to say it indirectly.

Otherwise, why would Old Lu's eyes be red and his breathing quicken a bit?

Chen Xiao said, "Auntie is right, there are indeed many temptations. I once tried to resist, but I didn't expect my ability to be insufficient, and I failed......"

Tian Shuman laughed, "Look, Old Lu, you're not as carefree as this child."

As an old hand, Lu Xingchen naturally wouldn't easily reveal his flaws, "He's a playboy, but I'm not. How can there be any comparison, isn't that right, Brother Chen?"

"Hahaha, Old Brother is very right."

Everyone was a stranger, so they didn't care about boasting and joking with each other, even the seniority was all mixed up.

Chen Xiao called Tian Shuman 'Auntie' and Lu Xingchen 'Old Brother', and no one found anything inappropriate.

They chatted until noon, had a simple lunch, and at around two in the afternoon, a faint rumbling sound echoed in the sky. Before long, two black dots appeared from far away and grew closer.

The village children saw a helicopter for the first time with their own eyes and cheered and jumped with joy.

Actually, it was Chen Xiao's first time seeing one in real life too.

Temporarily bidding farewell to Chahakeer and Plateau Elf, which left a deep impression on everyone.

The group took the helicopter back to Shu City.

Xia Yudie saw Chen Xiao again and cried like a tearful person.

"Wuwuwu...... Chen Xiao, I thought I'd never see you again. Every day I saw the number of deaths in the news increasing, wuwuwu......"

Chen Xiao had also looked at the news from the past two days. The situation for those who stayed put waiting for rescue wasn't good. Some people were so cold at night that they lit their cars on fire for warmth.

But after the fire burned out the next day, they still lost their lives due to hypothermia.

He heard there were seven men wearing short sleeves who, after burning their SUV, died huddled together.

Chen Xiao didn't know if they were the ones beaten by Yan Bingqin, nor was he interested in finding out.

It took a while to comfort her before Xia Yudie's crying gradually subsided.

Tian Shuman nudged Lu Xingchen with her elbow, "See? How devoted this girl is to this young man?"

Lu Xingchen pouted and didn't speak.

After exchanging contact information and agreeing to meet again when they had time, everyone parted ways at the helipad.

On the way back, Tang Shaofei and the others sighed, "This time, we really walked a fine line with death."

Everyone had a slightly different understanding of life and living.

After staying in Shu City for two days, enjoying the food and beautiful women to their heart's content, Chen Xiao and the others planned to return to Jinning.

Xia Yudie had to accompany her father to the grasslands, so she could only reluctantly part with Chen Xiao for now.

Watching the two of them being so lovey-dovey, Yan Bingqin rolled her eyes countless times.

"Hmph! Big liar, you don't keep your word, you only know how to make girls happy!"

Xiong Chao chuckled and leaned in, "Sister Qin, can I pay my share for our real estate company collaboration a bit later than you guys?"

"No! If you have money, invest. If not, go play somewhere else."

"......" Xiong Chao.

Well, two days ago she disregarded her own life and led them out of the desperate situation.

Now she's back to being an unfeeling ice queen......

Outside Jinning Airport, a line of over twenty luxury cars was parked.

Beside each car stood two men in suits and sunglasses, and several men and women who looked like they had important identities were waiting at the exit.

Passersby all wondered who it could be, to have such a grand display. Was it some celebrity?

Some people with time and patience to watch the show quickly saw.

Four men and one woman emerged from the airport, then waved goodbye, surrounded by the people who came to pick them up. They each got into different luxury cars, and then the convoy split into five, departing one after another.

Sitting in the S600, Chen Xiao felt like he had been reborn.

This summer vacation had been simply too exciting.

Old Liu and Lei Yong were both fine and had already returned to Jinning in advance.

The car drove smoothly through the bustling metropolis.

Xi Yunru was already waiting at home. The thought of 'peaches' made Chen Xiao's heart stir.

"Damn it, even if the King of Heaven himself comes today, he won't be able to stop me!"

The car stopped in the Binjiang No. 1 underground garage, and Chen Xiao finally returned home after nearly 20 days.

As soon as he entered, Xi Yunru gave him a big hug.

Then she looked him up and down, "You're not hurt, are you?"

Chen Xiao spread his arms and smiled, "Everything's intact, functions normally."

Xi Yunru: "....."

Her face instantly turned red.

Xi Yunru understood what Chen Xiao meant.

"First, let's eat."

Chen Xiao directly picked her up, and immediately felt a surging, captivating sensation.

"Eat what? Eat you!"

"Bo, boss, then I'll go back first......" The single mother Dong Xuewen said as she brought dishes out from the kitchen.

Chen Xiao: "......"

He put Xi Yunru down, "Ah, if you don't mind, stay and eat with us."

Dong Xuewen's face also instantly turned crimson.

She had clearly heard the boss say he wanted to "eat" Xi Yunru just now, and to stay and eat together...... what?"?
