"Don’t move. I’ll have a doctor check you out." Su Xuan helped Guo Yuxiang into the backseat of the Charman. He then had the accompanying Kangnai medical staff give him a check-up. Because he was rescued just in time, Guo Yuxiang only had a few scrapes and was otherwise fine. "Brother Su, thank you so much! You’re my savior, it’s as if you’ve given me a new life!" Guo Yuxiang cried, clutching Su Xuan’s hand to his chest, unwilling to let go. Su Xuan just smiled and patted the back of Guo Yuxiang’s hand, then turned his gaze to the old village chief. The road ahead was blocked, and now they faced two choices. They could either abandon their goal and return to the village, or they could find another way. "That pair of siblings... their house is in danger of collapsing," the old village chief murmured, understanding Su Xuan’s unspoken question. "If we leave them and something happens, I can’t escape my responsibility as village chief. I know a footpath that bypasses the landslide and leads to their home. The hail has stopped, so why don’t we..." "Let’s go." Su Xuan efficiently grabbed the pre-prepared delivery parcels from the car and waved to the old village chief. The old village chief found a narrow goat track and started climbing the mountain. The others grabbed some supplies and followed him. Guo Yuxiang sighed with a twinge of heartache as he glanced at his luxury pickup truck, now submerged in mud. He then made his way over to Su Zimo’s side. "Zi Mo, Brother Su is my lifesaver. Can you tell me what exactly he does?" he asked in a low voice. "What do you think?" Su Zimo winked slyly. "It’s all quite obvious. If you still can’t figure it out, you really should go to the hospital and get your head checked." "Is Brother Su the boss of Lycar?" Guo Yuxiang speculated, recalling the lavish portable dining table. "Mm-hmm," Su Zimo nodded. "Keep guessing." "What? Keep guessing? Does Brother Su have another identity?" Guo Yuxiang’s mouth fell open in surprise. For someone so young, being the boss of Lycar was already incredibly impressive! His gaze fell upon the Kangnai medical staff with their first-aid kit. He remembered how obediently they followed Su Xuan’s orders. "Is he also the owner of Kangnai Private Hospital?" he asked. "It seems you’re not that slow after all." Su Zimo smiled faintly. Seeing that Su Xuan was already far ahead, she quickened her pace. "Wow! Brother Su isn’t just my lifesaver! He’s a great benefactor!" Suppressing his shock, Guo Yuxiang hurried to catch up with Su Zimo again. "Zi Mo, I have something serious to tell you!" Guo Yuxiang said. "Oh? What is it?" Su Zimo asked. "The truth is, I don’t really have a crush on you. When I was buried back there, I was actually blaming you. I was thinking I shouldn’t have come on this disaster relief trip just for you." "Haha, that’s understandable," Su Zimo replied. "You should keep pursuing Brother Su! I’ll even help you!" Guo Yuxiang took a deep breath and strode forward to catch up with Su Xuan. "Brother Su, I want to formally introduce myself." To close the gap in status between himself and Su Xuan and prove his own worth, Guo Yuxiang began to boast, embellishing his connections. "My dad is the president of the China Lawyers Association! I’m the director of the association’s business department! The association wields a lot of power, managing over 20,000 registered law firms in China! The association can assess their professional activities, and we can also reward or discipline them! If anyone dares to disobey, I can easily ruin them! The bosses of major law firms practically grovel when they see me. "Brother Su!" Guo Yuxiang caught his breath and declared with gusto, "If you ever need me for anything, like if you need to sue someone, I can send a whole team of top-tier lawyers to fight for you. Our arguments alone could drown the other side—failure isn’t an option!" "Heh," Su Xuan chuckled, glancing at Guo Yuxiang. "You’re certainly well-connected, but I’d rather not get into lawsuits." "I’m serious!" Guo Yuxiang insisted, sticking close to him. "Brother Su, just think. If there’s anyone you have a problem with, I’ll help you find their weak spot and crush them!" "If I think of someone, I’ll be sure to let you know." Su Xuan was really getting a headache from Guo Yuxiang. He had only casually saved the guy, and now here he was, baring his soul. Su Xuan truly hadn’t been looking for anything in return. "Brother Su!" Guo Yuxiang caught up again, whispering conspiratorially, "I’m Zi Mo’s classmate, so I know her very well. She’s never been with anyone, never even held a guy’s hand, let alone anything else. You can totally accept her advances. I’m waiting for that wedding invitation, haha!" "Uh..." Su Xuan really didn’t want to talk to Guo Yuxiang anymore. They were in the middle of a rescue mission, and his chatter was ruining the serious atmosphere. So, Su Xuan said to him quietly, "My friend, I’ve seen her kiss a man with my own two eyes." Guo Yuxiang’s eyes widened, and he froze on the spot. A moment later, he strode over to Su Zimo and began to question her angrily. Su Zimo’s face turned crimson. She glared at Su Xuan’s retreating back and stomped her foot in frustration.

A lone house sat on the ridgetop. The old village chief looked at the house and let out a sigh of relief. It hadn’t collapsed, which meant the people inside should be fine. He then led Su Xuan and the others into the property’s courtyard. A big, dripping-wet black dog greeted them with a bark, baring sharp teeth that were not the least bit intimidating. "Go on, get! Don’t scare our guests!" A girl of about thirteen or fourteen ran out and shooed the dog away. Guo Yuxiang’s eyes lit up at the sight of her. The girl wore a white T-shirt and fitted jeans, her hair tied back in a neat ponytail. Her face was as fair as the moon, her eyes like glistening apricots. Her lips were red without lipstick, and her brows were perfectly shaped without being penciled in. She was a vision of natural, pure beauty. Her elegant posture seemed to cast an aura of sweet innocence over the entire scene. "Brother Su, who would’ve thought you’d find such a beautiful girl on this treacherous mountain!" Guo Yuxiang nudged Su Xuan with his elbow. Su Xuan nodded, admitting to himself that the girl was indeed very pretty. Guo Yuxiang swallowed, his mind already scheming. "Since the road has collapsed and it’s getting late, why don’t we stay at her place tonight!" "Great idea!" Lu Dachun eagerly agreed before Su Xuan could respond. At that moment, no one noticed a person holding a short knife silently enter the courtyard. He stood behind them without a word. Blood fell from the short knife, one drop at a time...
