Chapter 516: 516 this is simply playing with excitement

Shi Lan had intended to instruct that under no circumstances should An Yang find out. However, the rascal had spoken to Huo Zhao a few days ago, knew the specifics of Huo Zhao’s schedule, and despite the difficulty in translating word by word online today, he had nevertheless learned about Huo Zhao’s life-or-death uncertainty.

At noon, the rascal called Shi Lan, "Sis, I want to go to Russia to find Big Wood."

"Can you even understand Russian? Just go then, and what about your competition? Aren’t you participating?" Shi Lan asked.

"Big Wood, the guy with an ice block face, so dull it kills. It seems like he was born to be alone, every time I see him like that, I wonder if he sees life and death very lightly, if he really has any ties in this world. Eventually, I realized, he doesn’t have ties, but the one who does, that’s me..." the rascal said, "Sis, I treat Huo Zhao like a brother, the real kind. Please let me go, there’s no competition this week, just one recorded episode left."

"You don’t have a visa or a passport..."

"Isn’t that lucky? I do," the rascal said.

Since he heard about Huo Zhao going there for a competition earlier, he had looked up a lot of information about Russia. Even though he knew he didn’t have the time, or it was unlikely, he had still somehow applied for a visa and passport.

Shi Lan knew that if she didn’t let the rascal go, he would definitely regret it immensely.

Afterward, she called Tang Ze to confirm the rascal’s commitment to indeed having no scheduled competitions, and only then did she agree to go with him.

"You’re not familiar with Moscow, and moreover, you don’t speak Russian. Once there, you’ll listen to my arrangements, or else, I’ll immediately send you back home."

The rascal packed his simple luggage, then traveled together with Shi Lan.

Yan Shixiu sent the two to the airport, telling Shi Lan, "Let me know as soon as you land. Don’t make me worry. I’ve requested our partners in Russia to provide assistance. They will arrange the itinerary and reception before you arrive, place you in accommodations nearby, and assign someone to help you search."

Shi Lan nodded, "I’ll listen to you."

"Don’t get into fights over there."

"I’ll listen to you."

After giving his instructions, Yan Shixiu finally let the siblings leave the limousine.

After all, they were two artists, and with Yan Shixiu, they were definitely making the front page headlines tomorrow, plus, the siblings were anxious to leave now.

Due to weather, the flight was delayed, though the rascal didn’t say it out loud, Shi Lan could tell he was beside himself with anxiety.

To distract the rascal, Shi Lan suddenly said, "The year I turned twenty, I got my pilot’s license, and the first time I went up, I steered the helicopter right into the sea."

Hearing Shi Lan’s words, the rascal suddenly looked at her in surprise because this was the first time she had spoken to him, stepping out of An Lan’s identity.

"But do you think that was the closest I’ve come to death? That might have just been that month’s closest brush with death," Shi Lan said, "In a way, Huo Zhao and I are similar. He has no relatives, no ties, and although I am surrounded by family, I feel even lonelier than an orphan."

"For people like us, living in this world, death is never something fearful, because our nerves have long been numbed, being alive or dead, to us, makes little difference."

"Until... the appearance of someone changed my attitude about living."

"So, I can understand Huo Zhao’s initial rejection and coldness towards you. For us, friends are essentially unnecessary. But somehow, he opened up to you, meaning, for him, you must be that special someone."

"I’m telling you this not to confuse you further, but to let you know, though Huo Zhao might not say it, he’s not really without concerns in his heart."

"Wanting to be brothers with Huo Zhao, you’re still a long way off. So, grow up sooner. Keep your original intentions for someone you wish to devote to, but when facing situations, you need to be stronger."

"To be a significant figure, you must first learn to control your emotions."

After hearing all this, the rascal suddenly asked Shi Lan, "What if it were your husband in trouble, could you still stay calm?"

"I might go crazy..."

"Pfft..." The rascal suddenly laughed out, but had to admit, the young miss’s tactic was effective.

After laughing, the rascal’s mood relaxed considerably.

"Sis, thank you, thank you for rescuing me from dire straits."

Whether in the past or now.

"The one you should be thanking, isn’t me."

It was the former An Lan.

"I also thank my dear sister."

For the first time, as if they were friends, the siblings shared heartfelt words and also endured the long delay.

Two hours later, they finally boarded the flight to Russia. After enduring more than a dozen hours, they finally landed at Moscow’s airport.

The designated pick-up staff was meticulous, made conspicuous signs, and upon picking them up, immediately drove them to the hospital.

"Knowing you’re in a hurry, we’re taking you directly to the hospital to see if your friend can be found. Casualty numbers are currently being tallied, and we’re also trying to get the list," they said.

The staff even included an employee who spoke Chinese.

"Thank you," the rascal quickly expressed his gratitude.

"Is the damage severe?" Shi Lan took the opportunity to ask.

"A few people died."

The partner spoke conservatively, Shi Lan knew.

After a forty-minute drive, Shi Lan and the rascal finally arrived at the local hospital.

Due to an explosion, the hospital was now overcrowded. The partner’s staff worked with Shi Lan to find the managing doctor and inquire about some unidentified patients.

The doctor led them quickly to the inpatient department, searching room by room, but they still did not find Huo Zhao.

They checked the general wards and the ICU, and finally, the rascal nervously mentioned the morgue.

The doctor, understanding the translation, chuckled and said, "To my knowledge, among the deceased, there are no oriental faces."

They all sighed in relief.

But as Shi Lan raised another question, their hearts were once again in suspense, "Is it certain all the injured were brought to this hospital?"

"Not necessarily, there might still be some under the rubble..."

The rascal: "..."

Truly thrilling.

This was like playing with heartbeats.

The staff suggested they first return to the hotel to settle down and wait for the list and news.

But the rascal was not content, always feeling Huo Zhao was nearby, but just couldn’t find him.

Shi Lan knew the rascal’s urgency and didn’t plan to persuade him, but then Tang Ze sent a message to Shi Lan, "I forgot to mention something important, An Lan has a very important promotional video to record."
