sonally to support her, that's enough already!At Shen Ruifeng's insistence, Su He arrived at Xingye Bay with a bodyguard. She asked the bodyguard to wait outside and went in herself to clean up.Only u...Su He turned her head and looked up at Huo Chenxi.

Flames outlined his sharp facial features, making his cold, dark eyes shine with an unnatural brilliance.

He gazed at her intently. Su He saw a tiny reflection of herself in his eyes, as if she were about to be swallowed by darkness at any moment.

"Scared." Su He honestly said.

Her interactions over these days made it clear to her that the villagers couldn't reason, that in their eyes there were no laws or morals, only tribal rules and customs. And within these, there was no civilized way to solve problems.

How could she not be afraid

Several times, she almost died at the hands of the villagers.

Because she was scorned for cheating on Huo Chenxi with another man, the villagers took her to the riverbank and tried to drown her. Luckily, Huo Chenxi arrived just in time.

Once again, villagers forced her to go up the mountain to herd cattle. Someone deliberately enraged the herd, almost causing her to be trampled to death. It was Huo Chen Xi who appeared just in time and saved her.

Knowing this place was dangerous, she didn't seem to feel how scared she should be because of Huo Chenxi.

It's just like going back to A city before.

After Huo Chenxi's appearance, even though her foster father would raise his fist in drunken rage, she wouldn't despair, although she would be frightened, feeling that death could descend at any moment.

It's just because he is here.

Su He didn't want to admit it, but she had to admit that Huo Chen Xi gave her a sense of safety and reliability.

But every time this feeling arose, she would think of the child who had been cruelly left behind, only then could she barely suppress the restlessness in her heart.

Huo Chenxi raised his hand and tucked the stray hair from her forehead behind her ear. Su He's heart skipped a beat and she instinctively took half a step back, her heart pounding uncontrollably.

"As long as I'm here, nothing will happen to you." Huo Chenxi stared at her, his eyes flashing with a noticeable disappointment at her actions.

Su He took a deep breath, bit her lip and said nothing.

"You two, you dare to run away!" The villager brought people over and shouted at Huo Chenxi and Su He.

Huo Chenxi raised his eyebrows and reached out to hug Su He's shoulders, pulling her into his chest. With a half-smile, he said to the village head, "There is no way out here I'm just taking my wife out for some fun at night."

The village head looked at them suspiciously, fixing his gaze on Su He and asked, “Is he telling the truth If you tell me the truth, I can let you go.”

Su He looked at the village chief in surprise, "Are you serious"

The village chief grinned, slapped his chest hard and said, "My word is my bond."

Ho Chenxi tightened his grip on Su He's shoulder, but after a long pause, he seemed to have figured something out and gradually loosened his hold.

He also wanted to know, in this situation, would she choose to stay with him, or leave him alone

"I was brought here against my will." Su He turned to look at Huo Chenxi, seeing his expression as usual. Then she turned back to the village head.

The village head's eyes flashed with a murderous intent as he glared at Huo Chenxi through gritted teeth: "What else do you have to say"

Huo Chenxi lowered his eyelids, concealing the disappointment in his eyes. But before he could speak, he heard Su He's voice again.

"I'm not finished yet! It was the dead of night, pitch black out there, and he insisted on taking me out, saying he wanted to have some fun. We didn't find any fun, and I ended up taking a tumble!"

He Chenxi suddenly raised his head, a gleam flashing in his eyes, and looked at Su He in disbelief.

Just as Su He finished speaking, he also turned his head to look at him.

Their eyes met, and an unspeakable feeling flowed silently in the air.

What's the fun up on the mountain in the middle of the night

"People in the city are so strange, who knows"

"This little woman actually kept a mistress behind her husband's back Doesn't her husband care at all about this Is he even a man"

The villagers who had surrounded them, whispering and discussing amongst themselves, no longer suspected their intentions.

"That's enough," the village head declared, waving his hand. "Since we came for fun, and the fun is over, let's go back to rest."

The village head thought that Huo Chen Xi was deliberately playing tricks on them. Considering his help in earning money, he didn't hold it against him. He just warned coldly: "This is a one-time thing, no repeat offenses. Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite."

Huo Chenxi didn't say anything.

Su He asked silently, "Do you really want to go back"

If they get found out for diverting the tiger away from its mountain, do they think they'll still have a good harvest when they go back

Huo Chenxi was about to answer, when a loud "rumble" suddenly came from above the sky, accompanied by a strong wind. Many of the villagers' torches were extinguished, and many people were blown around, unable to stand.

Su He was also blown about by the wind, and if Huo Chen Xi hadn't been holding onto her, she would have probably fallen clumsily.

"Helicopter"

Looking up at the descending ladder, Su He followed it with his gaze, his eyes meeting the spinning blades of the helicopter hovering above the stunted forest. For a moment, he couldn't find the words to speak.

How many things did Huo Chenxi arrange in total

"The money-making strategies I previously provided to the village head were actually a plea for help," Huo Chenxi simply explained, holding onto Su He as they climbed up the ladder together.

The village head was furious and wanted to get closer, but the strong wind blew him so hard that he couldn't even stand, let alone come over and grab someone.

He could only watch helplessly as Huo Shenxi carried Su He onto the helicopter. The helicopter took off, getting higher and higher, until it finally disappeared in the distance.

Su He sat in the helicopter, seeing Qin Shi inside. She roughly guessed that the SOS Huo Chen Xi mentioned before was a special way of communication between him and Qin Shi.

"What about the women and children who were abducted" Su He took the mineral water handed over by Huo Shenxi, drank it greedily after being thirsty for a long time, and couldn't help but ask.

Ho Chenxi glanced at Qin Shi.

Qin held his fist to his lips, coughed softly to clear his throat, and said: "I reported it before I came here. We arrived at the same time as the police. Those women and children who were sold into slavery should have already met with the police."

Su He let out a breath of relief: “That’s good.”

"Miss Su, wouldn't this be a time to focus on your own affairs" Qin Shi couldn't help but remind her.

Su He seemed to have woken up from a big dream, suddenly realizing: "Qin Shao, lend me your phone."

She has been gone for so many days, her family must be frantic.

Su He had just taken the phone Qin Shi handed her when a trending topic popped up on the screen, leaving her speechless.

She, a shameless mistress

Noticing her unusual expression, Huo Chen reached out with his arm and snatched the phone directly from her hand. He glanced at it without looking and immediately locked the screen.

Su He frowned unhappily: "What are you doing"

"You can go back tonight, there's no rush for this half hour." Huo Chenxi's voice was low and slow. "I think we should settle the score between us."

Su He frowned even tighter: "Account What account"

Ho Chenxi looked at her with a half-smile, his thin lips slowly opening: "Lifesaving grace. Miss Su, don't you intend to repay the debt" be put on holdSu He was startled, but her face remained calm: "Increase the profit sharing for the cooperation project by three points."Huo Chenxi stared straight at her, Su He met his gaze without f...
