Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Sitting in the car, Lu Yanchen’s entire mind was filled with Shi Guang’s question from the previous night.

“Lu Yanchen, do you really think that we are suitable for one another?”

The randomness of that question had him feeling an inexplicable sense of panic. Somehow, it was as though the words that followed it would definitely not be something he wanted to hear.

And that was also the reason why he chose to leave the next day before she had even woken up, to pretend as though they didn’t have any conversation the previous night lest she chose to continue with it.

Between them, if it were a topic he did not like, he’d rather they did not talk about it.

Even though the weather that day wasn’t all that cold, it had been raining for a few days consecutively. The heavy rain from the previous night had not let up at all, and it was still drizzling even in the morning.

When they were on Beiqiaoshan Road, the radio station that the taxi driver was tuning to suddenly broadcasted an emergency message that there were landslides up ahead.

Instantly, the face of the driver changed as he stopped the car at the roadside, looking at Lu Yanchen. “Seems like there’s no way we’re going to be able to cross this road today. This is the only road into the city. We’ve got to turn back.”

Lu Yanchen nodded his head, indicating his agreement to it.

Landslides were something that happened when there was a huge accumulation of rainfall, gathering a large amount of mud and rock into a sludge that caused it to flow down from mountains.

Not only were there no warning signs before it was going to happen, the force it brought along was absolutely unimaginable.

Swift and heavy—these words described its potency.

It was already raining for a couple of days now at the Blue Seas area. Coupled with the excavations that were going on recently in the mountains, it was no surprise that everything would cumulate into a landslide.

Since Beiqiaoshan Road was the only path to the airport, he had no choice but to head back.

When he headed back, she should still be sleeping. If she were to see him return after reading his note, she would probably grumble about how he was teasing her.

BOOM!

Suddenly, a series of relentless booms rang out, seeming like the roaring of thunder. The driver looked at Lu Yanchen with a bizarre expression.

Sensing that something was wrong, Lu Yanchen’s entire body tightened up while his ears tried picking up everything as accurately as possible.

Instantly, he bellowed out, “Hurry! Turn back now!”

But, it was too late.

A gigantic wave of sludge had already begun its descent down toward them, bringing with it trees, rocks, and everything on the mountain. The area of effect was only getting larger with every passing second.

The face of the driver changed instantly as he wanted to double back in his daze.

It was all too late.

Lu Yanchen yelled out, “HURRY! GET OUT OF THE CAR! RUN UP THE MOUNTAIN!”

The legs of the driver were wobbling in fear as Lu Yanchen had no other choice but to yank him along with one arm and run together. As they were running away, the landslide crashed down and ripped the tail of the car away instantly!

It was a horrifying scene with a tremendous power as the car was devoured moments later.

Everything had happened in the blink of an eye and the driver had yet to recover to his senses, merely running along with Lu Yanchen blindly. There were other drivers and passengers around them as well; some chose to leap right into the river while others were swept up by the sludge.

Because he was in the special forces before, Lu Yanchen’s reaction to it was much swifter than everyone else, and he knew the right methods to try and escape a landslide with—they had to run to the mountains on both sides of the landslide, away from its center, and of course, as rapidly as possible.

When the first caught sight of the landslide, it was almost instinctive for him to choose to run in the direction of the high ground at its side as he brought the driver along with him.

As he ran, he yelled out to the people around him as well, “HURRY! RUN UP THE MOUNTAINS! RUN BY THE SIDES!”
