While Ya Dang did not shoot Lin Meiyan’s head after what he said, he fired several shots next to her feet with the pistol. She turned and fled at once, not daring to have other thoughts.
“Kill her directly if you see her again.” Si Yi told Ya Dang and entered the tent holding Yun Jian’s hand.
The others who were standing around shuddered when they heard how dismissive Si Yi was about a human life, obviously frightened by what he said. It took them a long time to recover even after Si Yi and Yun Jian had gone into the tent.
“Good shots. That woman should be taught a lesson.” Lan Su came to Ya Dang; she had always kept a cool and aloof façade but was currently wearing a bashful smile.
When Ya Dang saw her smile, his heart nearly melted. He was going to tuck the Desert Eagle back to its holster when he heard what Lan Su said and grabbed the pistol again to look for Lin Meiyan.
“I’ll get rid of her right now!”
He was just threatening that woman and Lan Su came over to him to compliment him. Lan Su would definitely throw herself at him if he killed that woman.
Just as Ya Dang raised his gun again, Mo Sen held him back. He coughed softly before saying, “Ya Dang, young master and young madam didn’t say anything. Don’t act rashly.”
Mo Sen had never addressed either of them as brother despite being Ya Dang’s biological elder brother and was usually strict with the latter. Truth to be told, he was only doing that for Ya Dang’s sake.
“Pft…” Lan Su could not help chuckling at Mo Sen and Ya Dang’s interaction. A second later, she reeled in her grin and feigned indifference again to walk toward the river nearby.
“I’m going for a walk,” she told both of them and went there despite the rain.
“Where are you going? Stop heading out without an umbrella.” Ya Dang frowned and went back to the car to retrieve a black umbrella before going after Lan Su.
As for Mo Sen, he stood rooted with a shake of head and a chortle. He knew that Lan Su was not just a fling to Ya Dang, so he had already treated her like his sister-in-law.
…
Ten days was not exactly a pain to wait. Moreover, Yun Jian had Si Yi.
Each morning, noon and evening, Si Yi held her hand as they walked around the area. Although he sometimes did certain embarrassing things to her when no one was around, she secretly looked forward to it.
Ten days passed in a blink of eyes.
The engineering team was diligent. They promised ten days and they did moved the last rock covering the well on the afternoon of the tenth day.
This meant that they could now enter the catacomb.
Lou Guodong did not underestimate or despise Yun Jian and group all this while. Once the well was reopened, he came over to tell them. With everything prepared and ready, Lou Guodong and his group planned to enter the catacomb with Yun Jian and her group. The latter did not refuse him.
When both groups were all set, a female voice rang, “Eh, it’s you guys?”
Yun Jian turned around and was greeted with several people—Ning Xia, Hu Qirui and their friends whom she had met previously in Hasa Village. Yun Jian had quite a decent impression of Ning Xia and Hu Qirui with the premise that they distanced themselves from Lin Xiaochu and Duan Tianyou.
“Mn,” Yun Jian replied seeing that it was Ning Xia who greeted her.
Hu Qirui was smart, asking Lou Guodong, “Hello, we’d like to go to the catacomb as well. Can we go with you?”
Hu Qirui knew that Lin Xiaochu and Duan Tianyou had a discord with Yun Jian, so he could only ask Lou Guodong and his group to be able to enter the catacomb with them amicably.
“Sure. Come along. There is strength in numbers!” Lou Guodong chuckled politely.
Yun Jian did not care. The purpose of the five of them differed from these people anyway.
Hence, the entourage came to the entrance of the well shortly.
