Chapter 341: Injured

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation        Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Old Madam Qin’s face turned pale with anger as she mustered some strength and shouted, “Get out of here!”

She absolutely couldn’t believe that Ah Lu would meet such a short-lived fate.

When they had consulted Master Jichen for fortune-telling in the past, he had said that Ah Lu would have good luck, blessed by God, and would lead the Qin family to the peak.

And over the years, Ah Lu had not disappointed her; he had exceeded her expectations.

Not long ago, he had even called her and said he would be coming back soon!

Ah Lu couldn’t possibly be in trouble!

The only thing that could keep her going was this belief.

In the past, when Old Madam Qin got angry, Qin Sen and Song Wanrong would have surely trembled in fear.

But now, they were not afraid of her anymore.

If Ah Lu were to die, she would be struck with illness again, her elder brother and sister-in-law had long left the capital, withdrawing from the center of power. This Qin family would fall into his hands!

Qin Sen not only didn’t leave, but he even took a few steps closer and said, “Mom, you should face reality and stop hoping for miracles. The century-old foundation of the Qin family can’t afford your wishful thinking! I’m your own son, we’re on the same side. You surely don’t want to see the Qin family in crisis, right?”

“You… you…” Old Madam Qin was on the verge of fainting from anger.

Just as Qin Sen was about to persuade Old Madam Qin to make a decision quickly, Qin Shiyu arrived with the principal of Imperial University.

“Grandma, how are you feeling?” Qin Shiyu rushed to the bedside, tears streaming down her face.

“It’s nothing…” Old Madam Qin’s face softened a bit when she saw Qin Shiyu. She trembled as she pointed at Qin Sen and his wife and angrily said, “Make them leave!”

Qin Sen restrained his expression a bit and politely greeted the principal of

Imperial University, “Principal Zhang, why are you here?”

Principal Zhang Chenyin of Imperial University was highly respected and had nurtured countless talents. In response to Qin Sen’s attempt to be friendly, Principal Zhang didn’t even acknowledge him, not even a glance, and went straight to the bedside.

“Elder sister, how are you feeling?”

Old Madam Qin holds a senior position and is a few years older than Zhang Chenyin. He respectfully addresses her as ‘elder sister,’ a title she rightfully deserves.

“It’s okay,” Madam Qin’s voice was weak. “Shiyu, please have Principal Zhang take a seat.”

“Elder sister, there’s no need to be formal with me. If there’s anything you need help with, don’t hesitate to ask.”

Zhang Chenyin’s words carried a hidden meaning, causing a slight change in Qin Sen’s expression. He quickly added, “Mom, please take good care of yourself for now. We’ll visit you again when we have the time.”

After saying that, he grabbed Song Wanrong and left in annoyance.

Qin Shiyu wiped away her tears, holding Old Madam Qin’s hand and said, “Grandma, don’t worry. I believe that my big brother will be fine. He’s so capable, and if he encounters danger, he’ll definitely avoid it in time!”

“Sister, Ah Lu is a smart kid. He won’t let himself be trapped in a desperate situation. The news that has come back now is just intentionally spread by someone with an agenda, trying to shake up the Qin family. You need to stay calm and have confidence in him!”

Zhang Chenyin had also taught Qin Lu before and had even considered taking him as his disciple. Unfortunately, Qin Lu had to return home to inherit the family fortune and couldn’t pursue a career in research. But after years of teaching and mentoring, Qin Lu remained his favorite student.

Because of Qin Lu’s connection, he was somewhat familiar with Old Madam Qin. So when he learned about Old Madam Qin being hospitalized from Qin Shiyu, he came along.

“You’re right. I believe in Ah Lu too. That rascal hasn’t even brought my granddaughter-in-law back yet; how could something happen to him!”

Old Madam Qin, who had been anxious and uneasy, calmed down somewhat under Zhang Chenyin’s reassurance.

At Eireng.

The heavy rain had been pouring for three hours already.

Search and rescue teams on the ground were still tirelessly conducting their search, despite the rain.

Nan Yan stood in the rain, her clothes drenched and clinging to her skin. Rainwater trickled down her hair, running down her face.

Shen Junqing and Bai Chen couldn’t convince her to leave, so they could only stay with her, waiting in the rain.

As time passed, Nan Yan’s heart sank bit by bit. Her face gradually turned pale, almost translucent. Her lips were so pale, they seemed to have lost all color. She looked like an emotionless ice sculpture, devoid of any emotional fluctuations.

Bai Chen couldn’t help but suggest, ‘Yanyan, you look terrible. Why don’t you go back to the car? We’ll wait outside.”

Nan Yan seemed to ignore them and continued to stare ahead. Suddenly, she spoke, “There’s a cellar in this mansion.”

Shen Junqing:

Bai Chen:

At first, neither of them understood what she was talking about. But after a moment, they exchanged a knowing look and understood her meaning.

None of the people they had dug out so far had survived. Not a single one. They were all dead. If Qin Lu was in the building when it collapsed, he was facing a

life-or-death situation.

However, if he had managed to seek refuge in an underground cellar during the explosion, he might still be alive.

And now, less than one-fifth of the above-ground area had been searched. They were not familiar with the layout of this mansion, making it even more challenging.

Trying to find a cellar on the ground, buried under the ruins without any coordinates, was extremely difficult.

But having a target at least offered more hope.

Nan Yan stared at the empty space in front of her, constructing a mental map of the mansion’s layout in her mind. Her expression grew colder, and suddenly, she spoke, “Third Brother, go and call Qin Yi.”

“Alright.” Shen Junqing nodded and quickly ran out into the rain.

Qin Yi was summoned.

“Bring a few people with you.”

Nan Yan finished her sentence and, in the rain, began to walk towards the ruins.

“Miss Nan, what have you found?”

“Dig here!” Nan Yan’s tone was calm. “Dig the spot under my feet.” “Okay, Miss Nan, please stand aside to avoid getting in the way.”

Qin Yi called his subordinates over to start digging.

In the cellar, Qin Lu sat against the wall, sitting on the floor with one leg stretched out and the other bent. His arm rested casually on his bent knee, and his head hung slightly.

Wu Yue was by his side, occasionally saying something to him to keep him alert.

This was a wine cellar, and the temperature was very low, around freezing.

A normal person could stay here for a while, but after a few hours, their body temperature would drop dangerously.

“Master, please don’t fall asleep. Talk to me, Master? Are you awake?”

Wu Yue suddenly became anxious, waving his hand in the darkness to feel around.

When they had entered the cellar, the master had asked him to go in first, and he followed a step behind, but he was hit on the leg by a falling slab.

There was no light here, and he couldn’t see how bad his leg injury was. When they moved the master, he touched the master’s pants, and they were wet!

“Master, please wake up. Hold on a little longer. Qin Yi and the others will definitely come to rescue us!”

Wu Yue’s hand touched Qin Lu’s arm and gave it a gentle push.

After pushing, Qin Ah Lu didn’t respond, and Wu Yue’s heart jumped.

“Master! Master! Don’t fall asleep. I beg you, don’t sleep!”

“Wu Yue, you’re so noisy….”
