Chapter 287: Searching For Xian Zihao

Chapter 287 – Searching For Xian Zihao

"What should we do? The rain doesn't seem to stop anytime soon! Hurry, send a few more cars!"

"Yes sir!"

"The mountain behind the Aerial Club?" Wan Shoushan suddenly said in a low voice. "The mountain fences were broken during the construction of this club. It is very dangerous."

"Is there really going to be a problem?" Xie Mei looked outside in astonishment. "Why is President Xian going to the farm?"

As she spoke, Xie Mei's eyes suddenly fell on Jiang Ruolan and she was filled with suspicion. "Ruolan, aren't you on the farm just now? Did you … meet President Xian?"

Wan Shoushan also looked at her.

Jiang Ruolan glanced at both of them and said, "Even if I was lucky enough to meet him, I still came back first. What's the use of asking me now?"

To be honest, she really didn't like the way Xie Mei pretended to be innocent but at the same time, looking at her with hostility.

Xie Mei pouted. "I heard you came back with President Xian's umbrella. What if something really happens to him after that? It's raining so heavily outside!"

Jiang Ruolan was annoyed by her rambling but she also worried that something might happen to Xian Zihao. She stood up abruptly.

"Ruolan!" Wan Shoushan called her.

Jiang Ruolan ignored him, walking out of the private room, and borrowed an umbrella from the staff member before hurrying out.

"Miss Jiang, it's raining outside, please don't go out!" Seeing that she was about to leave, the employee stopped her, "The rain is so heavy right now and you can't even see the road. If you go out recklessly, Miss Jiang, and if you can't get back in time, we'll have to take care of you, so …"

Jiang Ruolan paused for a moment and looked at the staff member. He was in a difficult position. However, he was right. Even if she went out to look for Xian Zihao, what could she do in this sort of weather? Could her two legs compare to those cars?

But…

Jiang Ruolan remained silent as she stood outside the door and looked into the distance. In the end, she did not want to cause too much trouble, but she still felt uneasy.

Since this banquet was arranged by some leaders and if nothing really happened, Xian Zihao will definitely not be late and gone missing for no reason!

After searching for about twenty minutes, there was still no news. Everyone was panicking. Jiang Ruolan stood where she was and opened her umbrella. She walked quickly into the rain curtain.

"Miss Jiang!"

The rain was falling heavily, but she could still remember the direction she had walked when she first returned, so she walked quickly towards that direction. She could vaguely see some light ahead on the road, which should have been the light from the cars sent to find Xian Zihao.

After walking for about fifteen minutes, she finally returned to the awning. However, the awning was already filled with rainwater blown by the wind. Jiang Ruolan paused, not intending to turn back, but quickening her pace even further into the orchard.

They said that at the end of the orchard was the back of the mountain. Could Xian Zihao have really gone there?

"Xian Zihao!"

"Xian Zihao!"

Although Jiang Ruolan was wearing thick clothes, she was still shivering from the cold wind. Then she thought back on how thin Xian Zihao's cloth was before, and she didn't know if he had put his jacket back or not.

"Xian Zihao!"

Jiang Ruolan kept shouting his name loudly as she looked around. She didn't know if it was because of the cold or something, but her voice was gradually trembling.

When she walked forward, she finally saw where the fence had been demolished due to repairs. She stopped, knowing that the steps forward would be very slippery and that it would be very easy for her to slip and fall.

Although there was no light here, there were still some street lamps in the orchard. Jiang Ruolan could vaguely make out the outline of this place. If Xian Zihao had walked here, he would not have been so stupid as to take a step forward.

Jiang Ruolan felt relieved, but she still looked around anxiously and quickly went back. Because she was walking in a hurry, she miscalculated her steps and stumbled upon a rock. Her feet slipped and she almost fell. Jiang Ruolan quickly raised her hand to support herself on a fruit tree and stepped forward.

She gasped.

Damn it! Her ankle sprained!

Jiang Ruolan gritted her teeth and forced herself to take two steps forward. Finally, she managed to walk more smoothly. Since the cold wind was too strong, her ankles' pain was not that severe.

Jiang Ruolan walked back to the awning and anxiously looked at the other side. As she walked, she was still calling out Xian Zihao's name.

When she thought about how Xian Zihao might have met with some danger, she felt as if a knife had stabbed into her heart.

Thunder rumbled, and no one could see and hear what was happening around them. Jiang Ruolan knew that such shouts were futile, but if she were to keep waiting in that room, she would definitely not be able to stand it!

"Xian Zihao, where are you?"

Not far away, the corn was swaying in the wind. Jiang Ruolan turned around and wanted to look around the orchard once again when a voice came faintly behind her. "Ruolan?"

Xian Zihao was standing on the opposite side of the cornfield. Although his body was already drenched, he was not in a sorry state like she had imagined. Jiang Ruolan was startled, the boulder in her heart fell. She hurriedly walked towards him, but because she was in a rush, her legs felt pain and caused her to stagger for a moment.

Jiang Ruolan almost fell down, when her waist was suddenly grabbed by Xian Zihao. "It's raining so heavily, what are you doing out here again?" He frowned.

Jiang Ruolan endured the pain under her feet and heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that he was unharmed. She then angrily pushed him away. "Oh so you knew that it's raining so heavily, then why aren't you going back? You've been missing for almost an hour and everyone's been looking for you! What are you trying to do, President Xian? Do you know that because of your disappearance, the several leaders were like ants on a hot pan?"

Xian Zihao looked at her but said nothing. He looked down at her feet.

"I'm fine!" Jiang Ruolan moved away from his arm and walked away, limping.

She had only taken two steps when she was stopped. Xian Zihao walked forward and asked, "Did you twist your ankle?"

"I'm fine!" Jiang Ruolan hated him so much that her teeth itched. Everyone was anxious to death, but he had an innocent look on his face!

Xian Zihao sighed, "The rain is too heavy. The awning from before could not cover the rain. I went to the awning in the middle of the cornfield and it was quite far from the club."

Jiang Ruolan looked at the high cornfield that was hidden by the trees. There was actually an awning there, but everyone's attention was focused on the dangerous place behind the mountain. They were worried that something had happened to him, but who would have thought that he was on the other side?

She kept a straight face and did not speak, but her body could not stop from shivering. Xian Zihao's jacket was also wet. He sighed and embraced her, giving her some warmth. "Fool. Drink some ginger soup when you go back. Otherwise, with your physique, you would definitely catch a cold tomorrow."

Jiang Ruolan didn't say anything. She wanted to move away from his embrace, but she was firmly pressed against him. Just as she took a step forward, she couldn't help but groan in pain.

Xian Zihao suddenly bent down and picked her up by the waist. As she gasped, he whispered, "Hold up your umbrella. Don't get wet again."

Xian Zihao held her stiffly in his arms. Perhaps because the rain was too heavy and the umbrella too small, Xian Zihao held Jiang Ruolan as close as he could, so that the rain wouldn't fall on her again. Her shoulder was against his chest, and she could feel his breath hitting her ears.

Jiang Ruolan looked up at his face. For a moment, it seemed to her that perhaps the love between them was deeper than she had imagined. In a trance, she thought that he would carry her like this. They walked all the way until the end of the world, but before long, the car that had been looking for them spotted them and quickly drove over.
