Chapter 25: 24

The avalanche was something no one expected, and the snow field was in chaos for a while.

Rescue teams arrived quickly.

Many people whose companions were buried looked anxious, digging aimlessly in the snow field. Lin Suiyan was still calm. He knew that this kind of thing had to be done by professional people, so he didn’t step forward to make trouble. He just took out his mobile phone and dialed Su Yuli’s number.

Su Yuli’s cell phone remained unanswered, and the scene was a mess. Many people were calling, and Lin Suiyan couldn’t hear anything.

Snow rescue was a race against time. Although only a few minutes had passed, for Lin Suiyan it felt as long as a century.

The people buried in the snow were dug up one after another, but there was no sign of Su Yuli. Lin Suiyan suppressed the anxiety in his heart, and suddenly, he saw two familiar figures in the crowd, Yang Shuo and Taozi.

Yang Shuo and Taozi were not buried in the snow. They stayed not far away. They were helping their companions which had already been dug out by giving them hot water to warm their bodies.

Lin Suiyan walked towards where Yang Shuo and the others were. He glanced at him, and found that from the photo that Su Yuli had taken, almost everyone except Su Yuli was there.

Taozi’s voice trembled slightly, and she wasn’t speaking as fluently as before. She snapped her fingers and said, “Sasha, Sasha has also been found. There’s still one short… Xiao Jin. Only one- Xiao Jin. It’s okay. We’ll find him soon.”

Lin Suiyan walked over and called Yang Shuo. Yang Shuo was stunned when he saw Lin Suiyan, and then said, “Mr. Lin.”

Taozi was also stunned when she saw Lin Suiyan. She became even more nervous, “President Lin, I…I…”

The girl named Sasha suddenly burst into tears: “Wen Jin was next to me at the time. He pushed me to run quickly when the avalanche happened, but he… woo woo. Wen Jin, must be all right.”

Encountering an avalanche was a very dangerous and terrifying thing. Coupled with the fact that the whereabouts of their companions was unknown and their life and death was uncertain, and the psychological pressure was even greater.

Taozi and the others were trying to stay strong. They reassured themselves that nothing would happen. They had arrived together happily so they would surely certainly return all together safely.

Now someone is having an emotional breakdown, everyone is infected and their eyes were red.

Taozi turned her head away, tears streaming down her face. She wiped her face, wiping her makeup off. She choked out, “It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have brought them to ski. Come out to play together. Why not go to the hot spring and sing karaoke? Why did I choose to ski? It’s all my fault. It’s all my fault.”

Yang Shuo also looked upset and apologetic. He said to Lin Suiyan: “Mr. Lin, I’m sorry. I didn’t take good care of Xiao Jin.”

Generally speaking, when important people around you have an accident and encounter danger, some people become anxious and nervous. So they urgently need someone to take responsibility for the situation so that they can feel more comfortable.

Lin Suiyan is not such a person. His kindness comes from his character and he won’t do anything to vent his anger.

Lin Suiyan said, “No one thought there’d be an avalanche. I don’t blame you. Taozi, this matter has nothing to do with you.” He glanced at his watch. “There’s still time. We’ll definitely find him.”

Taozi wiped away her tears and said, “Well, Xiao Jin has his own destiny. He’ll definitely be fine.”

Lin Suiyan’s calmness injected a shot in the heart into this group of young people. They cheered up, got rid of their soft hands and feet, and joined the search parties.

Lin Suiyan was not as calm as he seemed on the surface. His heart hadn’t stopped beating ever since he’d seen the avalanche.

After he’d seen Yang Shuo and Taozi, and they’d confirmed that Su Yuli had been buried, the frequency and strength of his heart beat to the point where he felt pain.
 

As time went by, Lin Suiyan’s eyes swept over the disorderly crowd, with unconcealed worry on his face.

Xiao Jin, where are you?

The rescue team began to check the list of missing persons. Taozi rushed over immediately, and fell into a snowdrift because of how fast she was going. Lin Suiyan took Taozi’s arm and pulled her up.

Taozi whispered thank you. Lin Suiyan told the rescue team, “My lover is still trapped in the snow and hasn’t been found.”

The rescue team asked the approximate location of the incident, and Taozi told them where they’d been.
 

The man frowned and said, “We’ve been over that whole area. There’s no one there. Did you remember it wrong?” 

Taozi grabbed the man’s hand and said, “No one? But that’s where he was. I saw it with my own eyes. Big brother, please, look for him again.”

The man in the rescue team had pale lips and sweat all over his forehead. He was obviously under a lot of pressure. He nodded, and waved for people to search again, and asked them to expand the scope of their search.

“Young lady, and this gentleman.” The man licked his dry lips. When he met Taozi’s hopeful and grateful eyes, he couldn’t help but look away.

He hesitated for a moment, then hardened his heart: “After being buried by an avalanche, the golden time for rescue is the first fifteen minutes. Now that time is nearly over. Even if he’s found, it may already be… I hope you are mentally prepared.”

Taozi’s tears, which she’d just managed to stop, flowed down again. She said: “No, I’m sure it will all be alright.”

The man patted Taozi on the shoulder reassuringly. Then he glanced at Lin Suiyan, who looked pale, nodded at them, then turned and joined the search.

Those who were rescued didn’t leave. They were covered with blankets. They were all concerned with the young man who hadn’t been found yet. Some people even started to close their eyes and pray.

In addition to the sounds of the search and rescue personnel on the snow field, all that remained was the sound of the wind, which was mixed with the sound of low crying.

 

These sounds mixed together, giving people a sense of despair. Taozi couldn’t bear it any longer and started crying.

Lin Suiyan’s face was even whiter than the snow at the ski resort. Fifteen minutes have passed since the avalanche occurred, and the chance of Wen Jin surviving is very small.

Realizing that the naive and kind-hearted boy was going to leave him and become a cold corpse that couldn’t speak or laugh. Lin Suiyan couldn’t help but feel a pain in his heart

He suddenly felt regret. If he hadn’t been so timid, if he hadn’t looked back and forth. If he’d just frankly admitted that he liked him. If he had told Wen Jin that he would spend Christmas with him, then Wen Jin wouldn’t have come here.

It was his cowardice that had hurt Wen Jin.

Lin Suiyan fell into a deep sense of guilt. He stepped back and looked at the endless snow in front of him, grieving in his heart.

Lin Suiyan’s eyes were slightly red, and he said in his heart: Come back, Xiao Jin, as long as you are safe, as long as you come back to me, I will…

Lin Suiyan suddenly saw that there was a slight depression of snow more than ten meters away from him. It was really a very subtle movement, but he’d still caught it.

Although he knew that it might just be the movement caused by the wind in the snow field mountain, at that moment, Lin Suiyan’s eyes lit up, and he ran towards that place regardless.

Lin Suiyan was wearing a cashmere coat, which was very inconvenient to move around in, in the snow. He simply took off his coat, knelt on the ground in his suit, and began to dig at the fallen snow with his hands.
 

Others at the ski resort noticed Lin Suiyan’s actions, and their eyes slid past unable to watch him.

Lin Suiyan was not in the mood to care about what other people thought of him. He concentrated on digging the snow, his fair and slender fingers quickly turned red from the cold.

Yang Shuo ran over at some point, and squatted down to dig with Lin Suiyan without saying a word. After an unknown amount of time, a light blue corner of clothes appeared under the snow.

Lin Suiyan and Yang Shuo were shocked. Su Yuli was wearing a blue ski suit.

Yang Shuo waved at the people farther away: “We found him! He’s here!”
 

The people waiting nearby were shocked. The rescue team immediately came over. Soon, the person buried in the snow was dug up.

It was indeed Su Yuli.

It’s just that Su Yuli’s situation wasn’t optimistic. His face was pale, his eyes were closed. White snow had fallen on his hair and face, making him look like a delicate, lifeless doll.

Lin Suiyan held Su Yuli in his trembling arms, and the people next to him began to perform rescue procedures. After an unknown amount of time- it could have been a few minutes or an entire century- Su Yuli suddenly took a deep breath and opened his eyes.

The moment he met Su Yuli’s eyes, Lin Suiyan almost burst into tears.

When the avalanche happened, Su Yuli immediately pushed the girl named Sasha and told her to run fast.

Although it was Su Yuli’s first experience with skiing, he was very athletic and learned quickly. After pushing the girl away, he looked back at the rolling waves of snow behind him, put on his goggles, and began to ski down.

However, the power of nature cannot be resisted by human beings. The snow was rolling in, and although Su Yuli slipped far away, he was caught up by the snow and crushed underneath.

When he was pinned down by the falling snow, Su Yuli briefly fell unconscious and when he opened his eyes, he realized that he was in a very bad situation.

Su Yuli had seen a lot of reports about avalanches on TV, and very few people can survive them.
 

As time went on, Su Yuli  found it increasingly difficult to breathe. He wanted to call for help, but couldn’t make a sound.

Su Yuli suddenly felt panic. He was only twenty years old, and his beautiful life had just begun. He had relatives, dreams, and now a lover. He didn’t want to die.

Su Yuli almost used up all his strength to raise his fingers by a few millimeters. Just when he was desperate, he suddenly felt that someone was coming.

The snow covering him was swept away.

After being rescued, the first thing Su Yuli saw was Lin Suiyan.

He didn’t have time to think about why Lin Suiyan was here, but only felt that his fear and grievances had an outlet.

Su Yuli pulled Lin Suiyan’s clothes and didn’t let go. His eyes were full of dependence. He choked out, “Suiyan, I was scared to death.”

“It’s okay.” Lin Suiyan comforted Su Yuli softly: ” I’m here, Xiao Jin. It’s all right.”

Lin Suiyan held Su Yuli’s cheek, gently and meticulously wiping away the falling snow and tears on his cheek. Only then did he realize that he cared more about the boy in front of him than he thought.

Looking at Su Yuli’s red eyes and his completely dependent eyes, Lin Suiyan could no longer suppress the surging love in his heart, and he lowered his head and kissed him despite so many people being present.
