PPS Chapter 148

Chapter 148 Ah Yi, I’m Here

Gu Yusen, Xie Tingyun, and Xie Yuyin searched tirelessly for a whole day. At that time, Mo Jincheng didn’t know whether the people investigating were Xie Haoran or Gu Yusen, or perhaps due to some selfish motives, he meticulously concealed Chu Zhaoyi and his own whereabouts for the entire day.

After all, Xie Haoran and Mu Xi were once his allies, so it wasn’t surprising that they found this place first.

But Gu Yusen and the others arrived only about ten minutes later.

Gu Yusen only saw the message Mo Jincheng sent on his phone when he stood in front of Mo Jincheng’s villa.

The cat crying over the dead mouse.

Why didn’t you do this earlier?

If Mo Jincheng hadn’t been selfish, things wouldn’t have reached this point today.

Gu Yusen hated Mo Jincheng, but he also knew that he couldn’t do anything to harm Ah Yi.

The result he found was that Mu Xi was involved in this matter, and most importantly, he saw Xie Haoran’s figure on the surveillance footage.

The person who hated Chu Zhaoyi the most in this world was Xie Haoran.

Kidnappers may want money, but Xie Haoran was clearly after Chu Zhaoyi’s life.

On the way to the villa, he called Officer Liu from the A City police station and asked him to check on Xie Haoran’s situation in prison.

That night, the police station discovered that the Xie Haoran in prison had been swapped out. This was considered a heinous crime.

It was a great humiliation for the police station. A prisoner was swapped out and escaped right under their noses. The police station also dispatched many people to capture him.

This was undoubtedly a slap in the face to the police. That night, various leaders immediately organized a meeting, striving to thoroughly eliminate the chaos within the organization.

Gu Yusen kicked open the villa door, rainwater dripping from his hair, soaking the collar of his black trench coat.

The veins on his hand holding the gun stood out, his knuckles white from exertion.

The exhaustion of not sleeping for three days filled his eyes with bloodshot veins, but those eyes were frighteningly bright, like a wild beast on the verge of losing control.

“Ah Yi!” His voice was hoarse, almost torn, echoing in the empty villa.

Rainwater poured in through the shattered French windows, wetting the glass shards all over the floor, reflecting a dazzling cold light.

But no, Chu Zhaoyi wasn’t here, and neither were Xie Haoran and Mu Xi.

Only Mo Jincheng was being held down on the sofa.

Xie Tingyun and Xie Yuyin brought people to search the villa. According to the information they had investigated, Mo Jincheng was also involved in this kidnapping.

How could he be so embarrassed and restrained here now?

Mo Jincheng didn’t have time to explain to them. Seeing Gu Yusen appear, he breathed a sigh of relief. His head was pressed on the sofa, but he still shouted loudly at Gu Yusen.

“Gu Yusen, the back mountain!”

He, the dignified head of the Mo family, was held down on the sofa and couldn’t move, and he was seen by his love rival.

He had completely lost face.

But now that Chu Zhaoyi’s situation was not good, he couldn’t care about so much.

Gu Yusen’s gaze swept over Mo Jincheng’s embarrassed appearance.

He wanted to shoot this eyesore, but he knew that now was not the time to settle accounts.

Gu Yusen turned and rushed to the back door of the villa, the hem of his trench coat drawing a sharp arc in the rain.

Mo Jincheng wouldn’t lie.

If Mo Jincheng had kidnapped Ah Yi, at least he wouldn’t be hurt.

But now it was obvious that Xie Haoran was up to no good.

Chu Zhaoyi’s eighteen years had always been difficult. The weather forecast had predicted no rain, but as he fled towards the back mountain, it began to pour.

The back mountain wasn’t too big or too small.

But finding someone by manpower alone was a considerable task.

Especially with the heavy rain.

But Gu Yusen didn’t hesitate and plunged into the rain, running towards the back mountain.

Xie Tingyun and Xie Yuyin didn’t have time to stop him. Even bringing an umbrella and wearing a raincoat would have been better.

Gu Yusen’s heart was beating wildly in his chest, and all he could hear was the roar of the rain. His vision was turning black, but he was still holding on.

He didn’t dare to think what would happen if Xie Haoran found Chu Zhaoyi first…

With his current madness, Chu Zhaoyi couldn’t possibly survive in his hands, especially since Mo Jincheng said that Xie Haoran had a gun.

Even if Chu Zhaoyi was smart, he was just a physically weak teenager.

How could he compare to a madman?

Gu Yusen ran wildly along the muddy path, the rain hitting his face, blurring his vision. Rainwater slid down his jaw and into his collar, the cold touch making him shiver.

But he couldn’t care about these things.

His heart was pounding like a drum, and all he could hear was the roar of the rain and his own heavy breathing.

The footprints on the mud were getting fainter and fainter, but he still followed them closely, not daring to relax in the slightest.

Suddenly, his gaze locked on a hidden cave in the distance. The entrance of the cave was covered by weeds and vines, and it was difficult to find if you didn’t look closely.

Gu Yusen’s heart tightened, and he quickened his pace involuntarily, almost stumbling as he rushed over.

He had a premonition that Ah Yi was here…

He pushed aside the vines at the entrance of the cave, rainwater mixed with blood sliding down his arm.

The cave was dark and damp, but Gu Yusen saw the small figure at a glance.

He heard his boy say,

“Brother Sanmu.”

He heard his boy cry for help,

“Save…”

Perhaps Ah Yi was like this seven years ago, curled up in the mushroom house, eagerly looking at the door,

Asking Gu Yusen for help.

But he didn’t go.

He broke his promise for a whole seven years.

Gu Yusen breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the intact Chu Zhaoyi. Perhaps it was because his tense nerves suddenly relaxed, he tried to step forward, but his legs seemed to have been drained of all strength, his feet suddenly softened, and he staggered, almost kneeling on the ground.

Fortunately.

Fortunately.

Although Xie Haoran entered the back mountain before Gu Yusen.

But fortunately, God finally showed some mercy to Chu Zhaoyi. Xie Haoran got lost in the mountains and didn’t find the cave covered by vines.

Gu Yusen was the first to arrive.

He hugged the lost and found boy tightly.

Chu Zhaoyi was burning hot, his eyes without a trace of color, as if covered with a layer of gray mist, losing all his brilliance.

He tried hard to open his eyes and see the figure in front of him clearly. In the blurred vision, Gu Yusen’s face faintly appeared, but it was like looking through a thick veil, and he couldn’t see it clearly.

Chu Zhaoyi’s eyelashes trembled slightly, but in the end, they drooped weakly, his eyelids as heavy as if they were pressing down on a thousand pounds.

“Sanmu… brother…” His voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible, spilling from his dry lips intermittently, repeating constantly, but as weak as a murmur.

He thought it would be nice to see a phantom of Gu Yusen before his life ended.

The corners of his mouth curved into a very shallow arc, as if letting go of all his defenses and persistence, allowing himself to fall into the endless darkness.

Before losing consciousness, he felt a pair of warm arms hug him tightly, and a low, familiar voice came from his ear: “I’m here, Ah Yi, I’m here.”

It seemed like a beautiful dream.
