Even though the driver was following Lu Yanchen the entire way up the mountains, for some reason—be it due to his legs failing due to fear or because something had tripped him—he ended up sprawling on the ground.

He yelled out frantically, “HELP! HELP!”

Lu Yanchen spun around, only to find him being swallowed up by the mud.

Grabbing onto a tree near him with all his life, the man who was swept in the mud let out an aghast expression.

Lu Yanchen turned around and steadied himself on a firm high ground before reaching out for the driver while gripping a tree with his other hand. He wanted to pull the driver back up. However, the fact that the driver was a fat and bulky person aside, the mud that was dragging him down proved to be adding too much to his weight.

And the main reason was because his hand was way too slippery—in his panic, the driver had failed to grab onto Lu Yanchen’s hand firmly and was then gushed down along with the mud.

The massive force of the landslide tugged at one of Lu Yanchen’s legs during his attempt at rescuing the driver, and he only managed to steady himself by gripping at the tree tightly.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

He was now too late to move aside as the landslide’s area of effect reached him as well, slamming down onto his back with all the rocks and trees that were being brought down by it. Everything sliced at his back mercilessly, leaving gashes of blood all over his back.

Lu Yanchen grit at his teeth while hugging to the tree with all his might. He looked at a tree adjacent to him and saw that there was a depression that looked like a miniature cave.

Mustering all his strength, he leaped toward it and rolled in.

The tree that was now above him now acted as a shield that prevented the landslide from touching him temporarily.

But later on, even this tree lost to the might of the landslide and was split into two. Thankfully, it covered the top of the depression, acting as a slide that caused the landslide to flow down more rapidly away from his location.

However, the tree did not provide a complete cover as the rain continued to fill the depression with water and mud, coupled with massive tree branches and whatnot. It wouldn’t be long before the hole was filled…

Lu Yanchen knew that just hiding there was not the way to go. If the landslide didn’t stop anytime soon, he would be engulfed in it as well!

Using all he could, he used every single branch he could find to try and create a makeshift cover above him that wobbled unsteadily. Even though it would fall in from time to time, it did what it could to lessen the amount of mud filling his depression.

After a long time, the landslide finally stopped. However, he was thoroughly tired out by then as he laid down motionlessly.

By the time he had regained some strength, he found out that the tree that was covering the depression was simply way too heavy for him to move it away. Coupled with the fact that his leg seemed to be injured, he could only lay there helplessly.

After a long time, he seemed to have heard sounds of cars some distance away—they should be rescue helpers.

However, he did not yell out for them. He knew that given his distance, his yells would amount to nothing, and he might as well conserve his energy.

Even long afterward, no one still headed to his location.

He closed his eyes, wanting to rest and continue preserving his energy… Her face flashed through his mind from time to time.

He thought about the moment he had first seen her in the field, where her smile was radiant as the sun.

He thought of how she had approached him in the library, telling him that she liked him with a little shyness in her tone.

He thought about how she had sprinted to him in the face of the rain the other day, hugging him tightly and calling out for his name so dotingly, as though she could not do without him…

“Lu Yanchen…!” She had called.

“Lu Yanchen!”

“Lu Yanchen!”

“Lu Yanchen!”

Huh? Was he imagining things? He seemed to have truly heard her voice!

Wait… That was right. It WAS Shi Guang’s voice!
