Qiu Yanbo smiled and helped Su Qingsang walk towards a slightly flatter and evener place situated slightly farther behind next to a large tree.

In your opinion, what sort of business dealings would I have in a small place like Qingyuan County?

Su Qingsang wouldnt know, and she didnt know how to answer his question either. Then, you

Qiu Yanbo stood before her. He seemed to ignore his chaotic and noisy surroundings.

If I told you Im here to look for you, would you believe me?

Su Qingsang widened her eyes and stared at him. When her gaze met his, she pulled her lips tight. Brother-in-law, this joke isnt funny.

Its still a joke. Qiu Yanbos half-lowered his head, his gaze on Su Qingsangs face. Also, dont call me brother-in-law I havent tied the knot with your sister yet.

I feel as though youre my brother-in-law already.

As she spoke, Su Qingsang took a step back.

There was a giant tree branch behind her. She couldnt back away anymore. Qiu Yanbo took a step forward.

However, I suddenly realized that I dont feel like treating you like my little sister-in-law. What now?

Qiu Yanbo. Su Qingsang couldnt accept such behavior from Qiu Yanbo at all. Im already married, and youre about to marry my sister. I hope that you have a little more respect for our family.

Her voice wasnt that loud. She was still weak from being suspended for too long.

Qiu Yanbo watched the rejection clearly etched in her eyes, his mind playing out the scene where she was caught looking so in love while she was on the phone with Huo Jinyao.

He really, badly wanted Su Qingsangs eyes to look at him like that.

Qingsang, did you know? The Qiu family and the Su family already established a marriage contract a long time ago. However, it never stated that it had to be your sister. If youre willing, I dont mind switching brides.

Has he lost his mind?

Su Qingsang didnt say anything. Her gaze swept across the scene. Most of her colleagues had already been rescued.

The injured were mutually helping each other to sort out their bandages. Su Qingsang did not intend to speak more with Qiu Yanbo.

Im sorry. You might not mind, but I do. Now that Im still in the countryside, I have work to do.

Unwilling to talk to Qiu Yanbo any longer, Su Qingsang turned away to offer her help.

Qiu Yanbo was left behind, his eyes watching her back, his gaze reflecting a hell-bound desire to make her his.

Huo Jinyao only took an evening to sign the contract that Huo Yifan had been delaying.

This was something that had already been decided earlier. It made no difference whether or not he was present.

However, Huo Yifan was adamant about passing the ball back to him no matter what. What if he wasnt back at Rong City? What would Huo Yifan do then?

Rejecting an invitation to dinner from the director of Lin Enterprise, Huo Jinyao took his leave after he had signed the contract with him.

Once they left the office, Yang Wenchang, who had been trailing behind him, finally said something.

Director Huo.

Hmm.

Something happened in Qingyuan County.

What does an incident in Qingyuan County have to do with him? Huo Jinyao couldnt grasp what Yang Wenchang was trying to say.

However, it was only a few seconds before his footsteps came to a stop as he stared back at Yang Wenchang. What did you say?

I said, something happened in Qingyuan County. Due to the continuous storm, there was a large-scale landslide. And

Say it. Huo Jinyaos expression seemed icy.

Ive already tried contacting Miss Su, but I couldnt.

Huo Jinyao already had an unpleasant look on his face, but Yang Wenchang had to finish conveying the message. Besides Miss Su, I couldnt reach the entire medical team she was with, either.

When did this happen?
