Chapter 181: Chapter 181: Keep Her Company

Bo Yunshen also didn’t fuss over things with Old Zhang as he picked up his phone and dialed Gu Jinyan’s number.

The first call went unanswered, and Bo Yunshen, undeterred, kept dialing endlessly.

On the third try, Gu Jinyan finally answered, his voice sharp, "Who is it?!"

Bo Yunshen turned his head to glance at Qin Yan and said, "It’s me! Old Gu, I need your help with something..."

"Old Bo? Did you think about needing my help today when you were playing me last night?"

Gu Jinyan chuckled, his tone adopting the casual insolence he reserved especially for speaking with Bo Yunshen.

"Cut the crap. Get a helicopter to the rescue station behind my house on the mountain. Qin Yan is injured and must go to the hospital."

"Your sister-in-law?" Gu Jinyan raised an eyebrow, teasingly said, "You’re still together? What injury? You seem so panicked that you even dragged out a helicopter!"

"Don’t talk nonsense; it’s just a hospital visit. Aren’t you being too ostentatious?"

Gu Jinyan fired back several retorts, then suddenly asked in confusion, "Since when did Hai Wan Xiang Xie have a mountain? How come I didn’t know about it?"

A vein on Bo Yunshen’s forehead twitched, his teeth clenched as he said, "The mountain behind the Bo Mansion!"

Gu Jinyan was bewildered.

"What are you doing on that mountain? I just saw the news; that mountain is about to collapse, and the Shi Lin District has already started to crumble. Are you done for?!"

Bo Yunshen’s voice was rough, almost hoarse as he explained, "Today is the anniversary of my third brother’s death. We went up the mountain to honor him. It’s a long story, Qin Yan and I haven’t come down yet."

"She got hit by falling rocks, and the wound got infected. She has a high fever. We must go to the hospital right away!"

Bo Yunshen licked his lips, continuing, "The entrance to the mountain must have been blocked by now. It’s difficult for vehicles to get up the mountain. Get me a helicopter!"

Recognizing the gravity of the situation, Gu Jinyan set aside his teasing. He moved aside the curtains of his office window.

Outside, the wind howled fiercely, and the rain poured heavily, most critically, there were periodic flashes of lightning.

This kind of weather would delay international flights, not to mention the mountain Bo Yunshen mentioned, which was dangerous for secondary collapses.

Setting aside the weather, even if one had money, no one would risk their life going up the mountain!

Gu Jinyan frowned, whispering, "With this weather, even you can’t deploy a helicopter. Thunderstorms create airflow that can cause aviation accidents!"

"Old Bo, logic doesn’t even need to be stated. You should know, I can’t get one out soon!"

"Even if I managed to get one, at this time, no one would dare go up the mountain!"

"Then just throw money at the problem!"

Bo Yunshen added, "If ten million isn’t enough, then twenty million! If twenty million isn’t enough, then a hundred million!"

He didn’t lack that kind of money. Coming from the city center to here was a matter of minutes. Bo Yunshen believed that under hefty sums, there would be takers!

At another time, Gu Jinyan would have already ridiculed Bo Yunshen for saying such things because of Qin Yan.

But now, Gu Jinyan only felt troubled.

"It’s not a matter of money. We just can’t deploy one!"

Gu Jinyan repeated, softening his tone, asking, "How is your sister-in-law now? I just saw the meteorological bureau’s announcement, and there’s absolutely no way to enter the mountain within the next twenty-four hours!"

Gu Jinyan and Bo Yunshen’s conversation was crystal clear to Old Zhang, who, hearing this, shook his head regretfully before Bo Yunshen could speak. "She’s now feverish at forty degrees. She absolutely cannot last twenty-four hours. Even if she’s lucky enough to avoid dying from the infection, the fever could cook her brain!"

Bo Yunshen’s face, because of what Old Zhang and Gu Jinyan said, completely lost its warmth.

For all these years, it was the first time that Bo Yunshen felt so powerless!

He clenched his smartphone tightly in his palm and then, enraged, smashed it onto the ground.

The feature phone was durable, and even so, the screen still flickered with a faint blue light. Old Zhang bent down to pick up the phone, hung up the call, and glanced at Bo Yunshen.

"Go inside, I’ll go to another room."

"Don’t blame yourself, after all, you did your best! I’ve looked into it before, the rescue station is still safe, stay with her inside."

"No matter whether you have feelings for her or not, she is, after all, your wife."

In just a few sentences, a huge wave surged in Bo Yunshen’s heart.

Was this deciding Qin Yan’s life or death?

Bo Yunshen turned around and took a few steps to the bedside. Qin Yan’s clothes were not very attractive, but she was beautiful, with her delicate porcelain face and her lively eyes tightly closed.

Sweat beads seeped out from her forehead, and her cheeks carried a slight blush. It was the first time Bo Yunshen looked at Qin Yan’s face so seriously.

It was also the first time that a bizarre thought rose in his heart.

Qin Yan was really vulnerable, her toughness was just her disguise, she needed someone to protect her too!

This absurd feeling continuously spread inside Bo Yunshen, and he felt a vague sense of self-blame.

If Qin Yan had asked him to help her when the rocks were falling on the mountain, and he had reached out to her, perhaps she would have avoided the falling rocks, and by now they might have already reached the old mansion.

Before she was knocked unconscious, she was constantly thinking about Qin Yinyin, and when she mentioned fearing something bad might happen, he could see the genuine fear in her eyes.

Qin Yan didn’t want anything bad to happen to herself.

That’s right, after all, Qin Yinyin wasn’t a child of the Bo family. Even if he promised to take care of Qin Yinyin, Qin Yan might still not feel at ease!

She always knew that he disliked her. Deep down in her heart, she probably worried that he would mistreat her daughter!

Bo Yunshen’s consciousness drifted, and guilt overwhelmed him. His gaze lingered on Qin Yan’s lips, and his dark eyes paused.

Another voice echoed in his mind.

Was Qin Yan really so weak? Old Zhang even said that her head was befuddled?

How ridiculous, Qin Yan hadn’t yet obtained what she wanted from him; would she really be foolish or willing to die?

If she was truly vulnerable, where would she get the courage to face the danger of a mountain collapse and stay to find Qin Yinyin? And where would she get the courage to jump into the reservoir?

She climbed her way up to the position of Marketing Director at Bo Group using her courage and strategy, mingling ambiguously with other men, yet still firmly holding her position as Mrs. Bo!

Was Qin Yan vulnerable? Were there really any vulnerable people in this world?

Bo Yunshen impatiently ran a hand through his dark, short hair, the messy strands breaking the icy exterior on his face. The dim light of the rescue station tinted Bo Yunshen’s delicate features with a gentle hue.

He reached out and lifted Qin Yan from the bed.

It was not possible.

No matter what kind of woman Qin Yan was, she had suffered such severe injuries, and he had an inseparable connection to her.

He simply couldn’t watch Qin Yan die!

Bo Yunshen stood up straight, cradling Qin Yan’s tender body, and walked towards the door of the room.
