Gu Canghai is no fool.
The moment he opened the door, he noticed Tang Jiaoqian’s swollen eyes, guessing she hadn’t had a peaceful day.
“Here, Dad, have some water.”
“Um, have a seat.”
A human heart is made of flesh.
Seeing Tang Jiaoqian’s hoarse voice, Gu Canghai’s heart, hardened by wars, softened again.
The sorrows of young love.
No one can escape from these four words.
“I spoke with Chuanwu over the phone, and he should be back tomorrow.
Also, don’t worry too much.
A large number of military and Armed Police personnel are conducting on-site search and rescue.
Finding someone isn’t that tough.” After sipping some water, Gu Canghai said.
Holding a white handkerchief, Tang Jiaoqian wiped her eyes and smiled, “Dad, you’re still treating me like a three-year-old.
The military can’t just enter the city casually, let alone search for someone.
Merely staying in the city for ten minutes could cause widespread riots and panic.”
Seeing his ruse uncovered, Gu Canghai chuckled nonchalantly, “Haha, you saw right through me.
But don’t worry, life and death are predestined, and wealth is in the hands of heaven…”
“Dad!” Tang Jiaoqian cried anxiously.
Gu Canghai, his face turning red, waved and said, “Enough said, enough said.
I’m getting old, and they say that with age comes cunning, but it seems I’m getting worse at speaking the older I get, even bringing up issues of life and death.”
Tang Jiaoqian stared in frustration, but hearing Gu Canghai saying this, she laughed too.
Yet, while laughing, she began to cry softly, clearly suppressing her emotions, covering her mouth and turning her head away so Gu Canghai couldn’t see.
The phrase “life and death are predestined, and wealth is in the hands of heaven” once again touched the tender part of Tang Jiaoqian’s heart.
Old Master Gu watched her and slowly said, “My dear, I know it hasn’t been easy for you in the Gu Family all these years.
If it weren’t for Chuanwu insisting on marrying you, I wouldn’t have agreed to your marriage.
Politics and the military should always remain separate.
Marrying into our family meant distancing yourself from your own.
Over the years, you’ve managed everything in the Gu Family.
Yue is your lifeblood.
It’s normal for you to cry, but let me tell you, Yue is also my dear granddaughter.
Even though I’m an old man and not very talkative, and often called stubborn, I want you to know I hold national integrity and parental affection in high regard.
You don’t need to worry about Yue; I promise, I will bring her back to you safe and sound.”
“Dad!” Tang Jiaoqian cried, tears streaming down her face, her call heartfelt and poignant.

Ye Tian was the first to wake up.
Upon awakening, the first thing he saw was the vast starry sky, and then beside him lay two beautiful women—Tang Su and Gu Yue.
Each was clinging to one of his legs like gnawing on pig’s trotters.
Curiously, none of them bore any scars from the explosion; instead, they were safe and sound.
Light!
White light!
After waking up, Ye Tian did nothing but lie on the ground, desperately recalling the scene when the explosion occurred.
He distinctly remembered the numbing sensation on his scalp when he saw the numbers on the timer swiftly dropping to zero.
It felt like someone was chopping at his head with a huge axe.
Yet, that wasn’t the main point.
When the explosion happened, Ye Tian was holding two women in his arms, reciting the famous line, “Underneath the peony, dying as a ghost is still romantic,” but from his right wrist, a white light emerged, enveloping him instantly, and then the explosion occurred. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
The fire engulfed everything, the alloy steel deformed instantly, the tempered glass melted into glass spheres…
Everything was so vividly and concretely displayed before his eyes.
What followed was him being blasted away by a huge force.
Based on his years of experience being bombarded on the battlefield, Ye Tian guessed he was blown away by a bomb with the power equivalent to aerial missiles, likely leaving him unconscious for a day and a night.
Before passing out, Ye Tian kept reminding himself to remember: the white light, white light, white light…
The same white light as last time.
The Dragon Team led by Ye Tian frequently undertakes missions abroad, known globally by the Mercenary Corps as the “Divine Dragon from the Mysterious East” for their fierce and fearless style.
However, last year, this divine dragon was ambushed by an organization called the Blood Wolf Alliance in the Middle East.
To date, Ye Tian only knew that he had survived, and the first thing he saw upon waking up was the same white light that enveloped him this time.
“White light, white light…
Where did this white light come from!” Ye Tian suddenly smacked his head, feeling incredibly stupid for not knowing such a trivial matter.
The wrist!
Ye Tian suddenly recalled the clarity he had when he was pushed out by the blast wave; the white light had emanated from his wrist.
Realizing this, Ye Tian quickly stretched out his right hand, inadvertently startling Tang Su, who was asleep hugging his legs.
“What…
What are you doing?
Where are we?” Tang Su rubbed her eyes.
It was dark, and she couldn’t see where her hand was stretching to.
She could only make out Ye Tian’s face by the moonlight.
Damn it!
He cursed sharply but calmed down thinking that such matters were ultimately inconvenient to be known by outsiders.
He shouldn’t have saved the two of them in the first place.
Reining in his emotions, Ye Tian lay in place looking at the starry sky and said, “I don’t know, I just woke up too.
But, we must be in some faraway place.”
“Why?”
“You’re even the manager of a nightclub.
Who were those surrounding us?
They were genuine field troops.
Do you think they were just there to blockade us?
Moreover, do you think this young lady beside us is an ordinary person?
I guess the two kilometers around the Xintiandi building have already been thoroughly searched.”
“So, you mean to say…”
“Yes.
I also don’t know how we ran here from the twelfth floor.” Ye Tian looked at Tang Su, deep in thought, and inwardly clicked his tongue.
My manager, haven’t you ever thought about how you survived?
Unfortunately, Tang Su really didn’t ask further, instead, she moved to the other side, pulling Yue (who was hugging Ye Tian’s legs) into her arms as if fearing Ye Tian would devour her.
Ye Tian curled his lips and turned away, ignoring her.
His hands were intertwined as he pondered over where exactly he might be.
A mere impact from a shell, at most, could throw a piece of human flesh weighing over a hundred pounds about five to six hundred meters, but crossing one or two kilometers like a bullet or shell is impossible.
As for those military personnel, even if they were really negligent in their search and missed over him grossly, considering Yue’s identity, they should have searched at least three times or more.
Could they really have missed all three times?
The answer is no; a soldier’s innate sharpness immediately dismissed this conjecture.
