Gu Juexi listened to Ye Yuwei and knew it was the best route.

However, the distance was challenging, especially with an old man on his back.

Gu Juexi was not a hundred percent sure that he could do it but his little puffball was waiting for him at home.

Couldn’t that woman have said something nice though? Did she not want him to go back?

“Young man, I see that she is quite worried about you.” The old man chuckled softly.

Gu Juexi raised an eyebrow but did not speak.

“When a husband and wife spend a lifetime together, it’s only natural that they will quarrel. When children are involved, they can’t be separated.”

When Gu Juexi heard this, he had the urge to laugh–the little meatball of his family was always pushing him to get a divorce. Apparently when children were involved, they would be separated even faster.

“Old man, bear this discomfort a little longer,” Gu Juexi said, tucking in his clothes and binding the old man more securely against his body.

Ye Yuwei curled her hands into fists, her gaze fixated on the people on the other side.

The rain continued pouring. Rainwater was blurring her eyesight but Ye Yuwei quickly wiped it away as if she couldn’t miss the sight of Gu Juexi for even a second.

The major stepped onto the highest point that could only accommodate one person and gripped the huge tree behind him, trying to stabilize his body as he held the rope belt tightly in his hand.

Minutes and seconds ticked by—Ye Yuwei held her breath and looked at the people on the other side.

The major exhaled loudly and swung the rope belt in his hand.

Gu Juexi leaned forward and reached for the end of the rope belt. He put his hand behind his back and attached the rope belt to the old man’s waist. Gu Juexi then pulled off his clothes at the waist and pushed the old man upwards. The resulting force knocked Gu Juexi into the water with a splash.

“Gu Juexi!” Ye Yuwei screamed and quickly turned around to run downstream.

“Save him!” The major shouted as he pulled the old man up.

Several soldiers heard the command. Two men stayed back to help the major rescue the old man while the rest ran downhill as fast as they could.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, the members of the rescue team there said that they did not see anyone coming downstream—there wasn’t anybody, not even a corpse.

Ye Yuwei asked about it repeatedly while members of the rescue team kindly comforted Ye Yuwei, knowing that family members must be worried at the time.

After listening to the rescue team, Ye Yuwei stumbled forward then turned around and ran back.

A few soldiers who had followed downhill were also astonished. It was a flood, and there was no knowing whether there were any dangerous objects downstream. How could there be no one?

Ye Yuwei walked back along the river and observed it, fearing that she might have missed something.

“Sister-in-law, it is too dangerous there.” The soldiers following her reminded.

Ye Yuwei did not hear them at all. At that moment, she just wanted to know where Gu Juexi was

“Gu Juexi, Gu Juexi—” Ye Yuwei’s ear-splitting screams were almost drowned out by the heavy rain. No matter how Ye Yuwei shouted, the only response she received was the sound of the heavy rain.

Ye Yuwei slipped and fell a few times, scraping her knees against the stones. It caused intense pain but she paid no heed to it at all.

“Gu—”

Ye Yuwei’s shout was cut off midway when her wrist was suddenly pulled by someone. She shrieked as she was pulled into the large forest behind the slope.
