However, she still didn't have the courage. So she tried to make things difficult for Su Yanke, hoping that Hou Yuheng could see that she was actually more outstanding than Su Yanke. But Su Yanke was truly much more capable than her, and she lost.
Later, she gradually gave up. But when she saw Hou Yuheng looking heart - broken because of Su Yanke, she couldn't help feeling sad. She couldn't help following him and couldn't help losing her temper.
Yet she still didn't dare to confess her true feelings in front of Hou Yuheng. Dark thoughts even crossed her mind. She thought it would be great if Su Yanke died. Then Hou Yuheng would stop missing her, and she would have a chance.
They just sat quietly on the ground, neither of them saying a word.
At this moment, there was a loud noise in front, and the ground began to shake violently.
Thanks to Hou Yuheng's good upbringing, he instinctively pulled Zheng Qianqian into his arms to prevent the woman from getting hurt.
When the ground calmed down a bit, Hou Yuheng looked up and found that the noise came from the film crew. He immediately stood up from the ground and staggered towards the crew.
Zheng Qianqian was suddenly pulled into his arms. She felt like it was all a dream. Seeing Hou Yuheng running towards the crew, she quickly followed.
"What's going on? Su Yanke, where is Su Yanke? Who has seen Su Yanke?" Hou Yuheng shouted hoarsely to the surroundings.
"Miss Su... is... inside. She hasn't come out."
"What did you say? She hasn't come out?" Hou Yuheng felt dizzy. A sense of unreality swept over his whole body.
"Hou Yuheng, hold on. Some people are already coming to the rescue. Su Yanke will be fine." Zheng Qianqian saw that Hou Yuheng was in a bad state. She quickly ran behind him and supported him, comforting him.
"Yes, yes, she will be fine. She will be fine..." Hou Yuheng repeated these words absent - mindedly.
Zheng Qianqian winked at the people around. They understood, stepped forward and knocked Hou Yuheng unconscious. Then they took him to a safe place aside, and then turned to join the rescue team.
Zheng Qianqian looked at the unconscious Hou Yuheng, full of apology.
"Sorry, Hou Yuheng. If your emotions continue like this, you will get into trouble. I had no choice but to do this. I'm sorry," Zheng Qianqian said guiltily, holding Hou Yuheng's body.
At this time, another group of people ran over. Lu Xingmi looked at the devastated scene. There were injured people everywhere, and there was no sign of Su Yanke. His breathing became heavier.
President Gu was also beside Lu Xingmi. Looking at this scene, he was so anxious that he couldn't even speak.
Lu Xingmi quickly calmed down and said to President Gu, "Please ask your people to help rescue Su Yanke and other trapped people."
"Yes, everyone listen to Mr. Lu. Go and help quickly!" President Gu also reacted and quickly said.
With the addition of President Gu's people, the number of rescuers increased a lot. Many trapped people were rescued, but there was still no sign of Su Yanke.
The live - broadcast was interrupted, which made everyone worried. Some wealthy families also sent people to help. Fire brigades from all over the place also joined the rescue operation.
After searching in the valley for three more days, Su Yanke and Yuan Hexiao were finally found under three huge boulders.
Thanks to the mutual force of the three boulders, they were very lucky not to be in life - threatening danger. However, they were still unconscious.
The public was relieved. Fans had cried many times in anxiety. They didn't stop crying until they heard the news that Su Yanke was safe.
The fans organized themselves to take care of her. They arranged people to check on Su Yanke's condition every day, for fear that something bad might happen again.
At this moment, Su Yanke was in another part of the world.
"Quick, quick. Bring the cage here. All of you come here. This thing is too heavy. It seems that it can sell for a good price!"
Su Yanke was awakened by these noisy voices. She opened her heavy eyelids. The first thing she saw was darkness, and then a sharp pain swept through her body.
Su Yanke grimaced in pain. She moved her body and tried to stand up to see where she was.
She remembered that she was buried in the valley. Was she out now? But why wasn't she in the hospital?
Su Yanke thought of the copper coin she got in the valley. She lowered her head to look at her hand. When she did, she was stunned.
A pair of furry paws were in front of her. She subconsciously moved, and found that the paws moved too.
Su Yanke realized something. She quickly looked at other parts of her body. When she did, she was shocked. She had turned into an animal?!
What's going on? Su Yanke subconsciously touched her face and felt a circle of extremely prominent furry hair around her head.
At this time, she found that her hands were full of wounds. There was also a mark of the copper coin in the palm of her left hand.
Just as Su Yanke was feeling confused, there was a sudden violent shaking, and the sound of a ship starting came from outside.
Was she on a ship?
At this time, the sound of a door opening sounded. Su Yanke looked in the direction of the sound, and a blinding white light shone.
Su Yanke squinted her eyes to adapt to the light. She saw a huge iron box being pushed in. There was also a lump of something inside, but it was too far away for Su Yanke to see clearly.
"The result this time is quite good. Since the boss has made so much money, can we get a raise?"
"Come on. The country is getting stricter and stricter. We don't know if we'll be this lucky next time. You still want a raise. It's good enough that they don't deduct our pay! Hurry up and work."
Only then did Su Yanke see that besides her, there were cages of various sizes around. They were full of all kinds of animals.
Listening to these people's conversation, Su Yanke learned a few things.
She was now inside a lion's body. These people were poachers, and they were going to sell them by ship.
Without a doubt, they would probably be sent to a circus because the circus paid the most.
"Hey, this lion is awake. Should we give it more anesthesia to prevent something from happening on the way?"
"It's okay. This lion has been tamed. It has no strength to resist now. Do you know what this is?"
The man showed the remote control in his hand proudly to the people around him.
"What is it?"
"Open your eyes wide and watch."
After saying that, the man pressed the button on the remote control. The next moment, Su Yanke felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen. She lost all her strength and fell to the ground.
"See? This lion was very fierce before. We nailed a movable hidden cone into its body. As long as you press this button, the hidden cone will rotate inside its body. This lion will be in so much pain that it will wish it were dead, and it will be completely at your mercy."
"Amazing, really amazing!"
Su Yanke was in so much pain that her consciousness was blurred. She couldn't hear the other sounds around her anymore.
When she woke up again, she didn't know how much time had passed.
Anyway, the thing in the box that had been pushed in before had stood up and was looking around in the box.
Su Yanke got closer and saw that it was actually a big tiger.
It looked quite young. The tiger also noticed Su Yanke's gaze and turned to look at her.
When they saw each other, both animals were stunned. Su Yanke found that the tiger's eyes were extremely familiar. Just as Su Yanke was feeling confused, the tiger walked towards her.
Su Yanke watched those eyes getting closer and closer. Suddenly, she knew why they were so familiar. It was the way Yuan Hexiao usually looked at her. Could it be...
Su Yanke wanted to ask if it was Yuan Hexiao, but when she opened her mouth, only a growl came out. Su Yanke then realized that in her current form, she couldn't speak or communicate!
Su Yanke looked at the tiger anxiously and saw the tiger make a move, a move that was extremely familiar to her.
The tiger sat down. Its two front paws, one on top of the other, with the left paw still and the right paw making a motion like scooping up food. Finally, it tilted its head slightly back and squinted its eyes.
This was exactly what she usually did when eating. This tiger was really Yuan Hexiao!!
Su Yanke nodded wildly. Just as she was thinking about how to prove her identity, she saw Yuan Hexiao shake his head and just look at her.
Su Yanke immediately understood. Yuan Hexiao had recognized her, so he shook his head to signal that she didn't need to prove herself.
Su Yanke made a gurgling sound in her throat. She couldn't help feeling a bit sad. Yuan Hexiao got closer to the cage and gently stroked Su Yanke's head with his paw through the cage.
Yuan Hexiao's paw slowly soothed Su Yanke's helpless emotions.
At this time, Su Yanke felt the ship slow down. The door opened again, and those people walked in once more.
"Hey, how did the tiger and the lion get together? This is really strange!"
"Come on, stop talking nonsense. Hurry up and get down to business."
Su Yanke saw them carry in a box of syringes and inject each animal. Soon, they were also injected.
Soon, Su Yanke's head became heavy, and her consciousness gradually blurred. She knew that it was time to unload the goods. It would be convenient to transport them when they were unconscious. In her last moment of blurred consciousness, Su Yanke looked at Yuan Hexiao, who was roaring beside her.
But slowly, she couldn't hear anymore. The only thought in Su Yanke's mind when she finally fell into a coma was that she hoped to see Yuan Hexiao, that silly tiger, when she opened her eyes next time.
In a building abroad, a man in a white robe was sitting on a sandalwood chair.
"The mission is completed, but..." a man kneeling on the ground said timidly.
The man in the white robe frowned slightly. A cold light shot out like a thorn towards the man kneeling on the ground.
The sweat on the man's head suddenly dropped.
"But... the copper coin... is... gone."
A cracking sound suddenly rang out. The next second, a bright light flashed, and the man on the ground lost his breath.
"Drag him out. Go and find it. If you can't find it, you'll end up the same way," the man in the white robe said slowly, holding a silk handkerchief and wiping his fingers stained with fruit wine one by one.
After hearing this, the people below immediately dragged the body out, cleaned up the dirty floor, and quickly retreated. The whole process was fast and almost silent.
After everyone left, the man in the white robe got up and walked towards the painting.
"Now, you don't even want to leave me the last thing to miss?"
After an unknown amount of time, when Su Yanke opened her eyes, she still saw the familiar darkness.
