Deliberately seduce

Chapter 73
On the expressway, the white Panamera passed by quickly, and finally turned right into an intersection. The green signboard said Baiyunchuan.

The sky seemed to be cracked open, lightning and thunder rumbled, and the rain intensified. A layer of white rain and fog rose from the blue-colored mountains, like a misty white gauze.

"I'm very sorry, the sudden cancellation of the launch will bring you losses." After discussing with Mr. Lai Kai about the product launch event in Paris, Zhou Shiyin extended his hand to Mr. Lai Kai slightly apologetically.

Mr. Lai Kai immediately held Zhou Shiyin's hand, with a polite smile on his face: "It's okay, we believe that Mr. Zhou and Vice President Jiang will be able to handle this matter properly."

Zhou Shiyin nodded: "Thank you Mr. Lakai for your trust."

After finishing speaking, he turned on his phone and was about to contact Jiang Yunmu, when he suddenly saw the weather information on the message bar.

Zhou Shiyin's fingers trembled slightly, his face gradually became serious, and he immediately dialed Jiang Yunmu's phone number.

However, he was answered with a cold mechanical voice: The number you dialed is not in the service area.

Zhou Shiyin frowned, and dialed Jiang Yunmu's number again, and the answer was still the same.

The expression in his eyes changed slightly, as if his heart had missed a beat.

"Mr. Zhou? You don't look very well. What happened?" Mr. Lakai spoke poor Chinese at first, but he couldn't speak it later, so he had to change it to French.

"Book the earliest flight for me. I'm going back to Linqi immediately." Zhou Shiyin put down his phone and asked Mr. Lai Kai.

"But now the fastest will be available in two hours." Mr. Lai Kai was a little embarrassed. Although Zhou Shiyin was very anxious, there was no way.

Zhou Shiyin ignored him, picked up his mobile phone and dialed a number. As soon as the other party answered, he ordered in a fluent English voice, "Arrange a plane for me, immediately."

In Linqi City, dark clouds were overcast, and the torrential rain continued.

Fang Zhiyi had just come out of a new round of meetings, managed to stabilize the directors, and wanted to call Jiang Yunmu to inquire about her situation, but found that she couldn't get through to her phone.

The noon news is playing on the TV hanging in the meeting room at the moment.

"The torrential rain in Linqi City is still continuing, and landslides have occurred in many places. As of now, the disaster in Baiyun River is the most serious..."

As soon as Fang Zhiyi let go, the folder fell to the ground and made a loud voice: "Baiyunchuan..."

She stared at the line on the TV in disbelief.

"Mr. Zhou, why did you come back so soon?" the driver drove the car to the airport to pick up Zhou Shiyin.

Zhou Shiyin had no time to answer the driver's question, so he opened the car door and said to him, "Go to Baiyunchuan immediately."

"But sir, a serious landslide has occurred in Baiyunchuan, it will be very dangerous to go now." The driver held the key in his hand with some hesitation.

He also has a large family to support.

Zhou Shiyin saw his concerns and didn't intend to force him, so he stretched out his hand and said in a flat tone, "Give me the key."

"Why do you have to go, sir?" The driver was puzzled, but still handed him the key.

In his impression, Zhou Shiyin has never been an adventurous person, and all the decisions he makes are deliberate and [-]% sure.

"Because she is in Baiyunchuan."

Without any hesitation, Zhou Shiyin directly opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat, driving away in the Maybach.

While driving, Zhou Shiyin kept trying to call Jiang Yunmu's phone number. Even though he was always answered by an emotionless mechanical female voice, he never stopped.

There was heavy rain outside the window, and the entire expressway was shrouded in pouring rain. All vehicles drove from the left lane to Linqi City, and only a Maybach was on the right to brave the rain to Baiyunchuan.

Zhou Shi, who has always been calm, is now infinitely approaching the edge of speeding.

Suddenly, the vehicle news broadcast the latest situation.

"The landslide in Baiyunchuan caused damage to the road around the mountain, and many vehicles were trapped. The rescue team is urgently launching rescue operations. As of now, 12 people have lost contact and two people have died..."

Zhou Shiyin slammed on the brakes, and looked at the sign in front of him that was blurred by the rain, and Bai Yunchuan had arrived.

The sirens of ambulances, police cars, and fire engines blended together, and the screams filled his every nerve.

He opened the car door and staggered into the rain, the rain soaked his shirt in an instant.

"Sir, we are carrying out rescue now, please turn around and return to the urban area as soon as possible." A man in a rescue suit came over and blocked his way.

Rescue teams are trying to dig a way in for paramedics and stretchers.

"How's the situation now?" Zhou Shi asked him as he wiped the rain off his face with his wet sleeve.

Before the rescuers could answer, the person next to him came out of the mud carrying a stretcher. The person on the stretcher had already been covered with a layer of blue cloth.

The person was covered in mud, and could be identified as a woman by the style and color of her clothes.

Zhou Shiyin's breathing was stagnant, and his eyes were fixed on the pendant hooked on the button of the man's sleeve.

Gingerbread man pendant.

Along with a flash of lightning, a burst of thunder suddenly exploded in the sky.

Zhou Shiyin stumbled and ran forward, grabbing the stretcher and not letting go.

"Sir, please don't hinder our rescue operations." The medical staff reminded.

"Then why didn't you save her?" Zhou Shiyin was holding the stretcher tightly, the veins on the back of his hands were bulging, and he asked him with red eyes.

The other person carrying the stretcher glanced at the person above, then at Zhou Shiyin, sighed and shook his head.

"What do you mean?" Zhou Shiyin's voice trembled, and his left wrist ached.

"One new death." When the medical staff said these words, it was official, but with infinite regret.

Zhou Shi's pins were weak, and he fell to the ground unsteadily. The medical staff on the side ran over with an umbrella to help him up: "Sir, are you all right?"

Zhou Shiyin didn't answer him, but raised his hand tremblingly towards the blue cloth covering the stretcher.

At this moment, he could not hear any sound around him.

A corner of the blue cloth was slowly lifted, revealing a muddy face, gray and lifeless, declared dead by the doctor.

The gingerbread man pendant hooked on the cuff buttons of his sleeve fell to the ground, and was instantly submerged by the stagnant water on the ground.

The tedious buzzing white noise in my mind stopped instantly, and at the same time, all the hustle and bustle in my ears rushed in, like a stagnant river suddenly flowing, washing my limbs and bones.

Zhou Shiyin fell back as if all his strength had been drained for a moment.
