Rising from the age of thirty

"Shit, there's no signal at all and it's getting dark." Lu Le's face was filled with worry, with even beads of sweat on his forehead. He couldn't help but want to curse in his heart.

He really didn't expect that there would be no mobile phone signal in the desert. He was so unlucky.

At this moment, Lu Le realized that he might have lost his way or gone in the wrong direction.

The desert before me was endless, and there was no landmark to be seen, let alone human figures.

He felt a wave of helplessness and anxiety coming over him, not knowing what to do.

When Liu Yan saw Lu Le's look, she quickly comforted him: "Don't panic. The old man said that if no news gets out before twelve o'clock, he will call the police and the search and rescue team will be here soon." She tried to keep Lu Le calm and not to panic too much.

However, Lui Lok knew that the current situation was very complicated.

There are two situations now.

First, it is possible that Shitou and his crew had successfully driven out of the desert and called the police in time.

Another thing is, if Shi Tou and the others are also trapped, they can only wait until after twelve o'clock to call the police.

As a result, Lu Le and his companions could only wait for rescue on the spot.

Lu Le got out of the car reluctantly, looked around at the surrounding environment, and felt a little relaxed.

After all, he had previously revealed important information to Assad, stating that he had bought the oil fields in the town of Kawa.

If it were not for this reason, once they were trapped here and Assad's people discovered oil resources, they would probably take them for themselves without hesitation.

Thinking of this, Lu Le couldn't help but feel fortunate for his foresight, but at the same time he was also worried about the current predicament.

Time passed minute by minute, night gradually fell, the temperature dropped sharply, and the cold wind blew bitingly. Lu Le and Liu Yan could only huddle in the car, waiting for rescue to arrive.

Time passed by minute by minute, and a long time had passed, but still no one came to rescue. Lu Le couldn't help but feel worried. He and Liu Yan simply ate some food and continued to wait patiently.

At first, Lui Lok turned on the car lights, hoping to attract the attention of the search and rescue team.

However, Liu Yan reminded him that the vehicle was low on gas and they needed to keep the heating going.

Lu Le said: "Don't worry, this amount of oil is enough to last until midnight."

"OK then."

Liu Yan thought about it and felt that there wouldn't be any surprises.

As the night deepened, Lu Le and Liu Yan began to chat, and the relationship between the two was subtle and interesting.

Lu Le considerately told Liu Yan that if she felt sleepy, she could take a rest for a while.

He will be responsible for keeping watch on the surrounding situation.

But Liu Yan said it was difficult to fall asleep in such a harsh environment.

The temperature difference between day and night in the desert is extremely large, with the temperature reaching over 50 degrees during the day and dropping sharply to below zero at night.

Lui Lok decided to take a short break and asked Liu Yan to help keep an eye on the surroundings. Although the space in the car was small and crowded, Lui Lok didn't mind lying down.

Liu Yan sat aside, not knowing where her thoughts were drifting.

Suddenly, a wolf howled in the distance, which frightened Liu Yan so much that her face turned pale and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.

She hugged Lu Le beside her tightly, as if he was the only person who could give her a sense of security.

Lu Le was sleeping soundly, feeling very comfortable being pressed by the softness of Liu Yan's chest. However, at this moment, the car was suddenly hit by a strong force.

Lu Le was awakened and asked in a daze: "What happened?" Liu Yan replied in horror: "Wolf!!"

Lu Le realized that the situation was not good, so he quickly got up, climbed quickly into the driver's seat, and turned off the engine.

At this time, the lights had attracted the wolves, but fortunately, they were still in the car and were not threatened for the time being.

Lu Le even forgot that there are wolves in the desert!
If they knew, they wouldn't turn on the light. Wouldn't that be telling the wolves that there were people here?

The interior of the car suddenly became pitch black, and one could not see one's hand in front of one's face. Just as Lu Le breathed a sigh of relief, there was another violent collision outside the car, accompanied by bursts of wolf howls.

Liu Yan was so scared that she hugged Lu Le tightly, trembling all over, and even spoke with a crying tone: "Lü Le, are we going to die here!"

Lu Le's face was full of black lines, and he secretly complained in his heart, this woman is really good at imagining things!
He patted Liu Yan's hand and comforted her softly, "Don't think too much, we will be fine!"

Although his tone was firm, Lu Le was actually unsure. After all, facing a group of hungry wolves, there was really not much they could do.

In the darkness, Lu Le couldn't see Liu Yan's expression, but he could feel Liu Yan's body trembling slightly, and she was obviously extremely scared.

At this moment, Liu Yan was hugging Lu Le tightly, burying her face in his arms, listening to his heartbeat and feeling his body temperature.

At this moment, Liu Yan suddenly felt very at ease, as if as long as Lu Le was by her side, she had nothing to fear.

However, reality is always cruel. The wolves did not seem to have any intention of leaving. Instead, they gathered in larger and larger numbers, constantly hitting the car windows and body, making harsh noises.

Lu Le frowned, thinking about how to deal with the situation.

Suddenly, he had an idea that maybe there was a method worth trying.
Should I run over the wolf with my car? This thought flashed through his mind.

"Let me go first." he said softly.

"Oh, oh!" Liu Yan blushed and replied softly. If it weren't for the darkness, Lu Le would definitely be able to appreciate her cute and lovely appearance.

Lu Le quickly sat in the driver's seat, started the car, and drove towards the wolves without hesitation.

However, ideals are always beautiful, but reality is extremely cruel.

Wolves were extremely agile, while the car was extremely clumsy. As a result, not only did the car fail to kill any of the wolves, but it angered them instead.

“They keep chasing.”

Liu Yan quickly stopped them: "No, we shouldn't irritate them!!"

The wolves are getting bigger and bigger.

"What should I do?"

"What are you afraid of? We are in the car, how can they get in?"

As long as you don't go out, everything is safe and just wait for rescue.

Hearing this, Lu Le felt a little relieved, but still a little nervous. After all, there were so many wolves outside the car, and who knew if an accident would happen.

Lu Le took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and then did as the other party said. He stopped the car, turned on the high beam, and honked the horn continuously.

The shrill horn and bright lights really worked. The wolves dared not get closer and just circled around the car, making low growls.

Lu Le looked at the wolves outside the car window and secretly felt lucky that he did not anger them again, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

Liu Yan can only pray that the police will arrive as soon as possible and rescue them from the predicament. (End of this chapter)
