After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 347: Chapter 348 You Really Are an Angel

”Yes, it’s me!” Luo Xiaoqian lifted her face, looked at the man in the back seat, and upon seeing his beguiling features, she immediately smiled with delight, ”Jiao Yang, oh my god, you really are an angel, hurry, come and help me save someone!”

The man sitting in the backseat was none other than Jiao Yang, who had once proudly called himself an angel by the Canglang Pavilion.

Looking at the thoroughly drenched Luo Xiaoqian in front of him, her face still beaming with a smile, Jiao Yang was also taken aback.

”How did you end up here?!”

”No time for talk, save people first!”

Luo Xiaoqian raised her hand to wipe the rain off her face, opened the car door, and sat down next to him, immediately speaking urgently, ”Go straight for about half a kilometer, there’s a left turn ahead.”

The driver glanced at the boss in the backseat, looking a bit unsure.

Jiao Yang spit out five words decisively, ”Do as she says!”

The SUV immediately started to move, heading in the direction Luo Xiaoqian had indicated. She held onto the seat, carefully observing the road ahead, and as soon as she noticed the swaying flashlight up ahead, she shouted out loud.

”Over there, just up ahead, stop the car...” Without caring for the rain outside, she pushed the car door open in a hurry, ”Yu Tong, Doctor Song, here, quick, get in!”

They all hurried over, and Luo Xiaoqian helped open the car door. Doctor Zhou, carrying Xiao Mei, sat in the front passenger seat, while Yu Tong assisted the injured driver and squeezed into the backseat.

Although the Cayenne had ample space, the backseat still seemed a bit crowded with so many people.

Luo Xiaoqian looked at the packed vehicle, ”You go first, come back for me later!”

”How can that be okay, you’ll get soaked in this heavy rain!” Yu Tong hurriedly squeezed inside a bit more, ”Everyone squeeze in, there’s room to sit down!”

”It’s fine, I have a raincoat!” Luo Xiaoqian was about to refuse again when Jiao Yang, seated by the door on the right, already pushed the door open, reached out to pull her onto his lap, and slammed the door shut, ”Drive!”

The driver turned the car around, heading back towards the direction of the county town.

In the urgency of the situation, no one found it strange, but Luo Xiaoqian, sitting on Jiao Yang’s lap, was so tense, her arms gripping the front seat tightly, trying to minimize further physical contact with him.

Although she had met Jiao Yang several times and he was somewhat of an acquaintance, such closeness was still something she was not used to.

”Wipe your face.”

Jiao Yang passed a handkerchief over.

”Thank you!” Luo Xiaoqian politely accepted it and, peering through the gap in the front seat, saw that Xiao Mei in Doctor Song’s arms was covered in rainwater. She immediately stretched the handkerchief out to carefully wipe her face.

Jiao Yang leaned back in the seat, half closing his eyes as he watched her profile.

Rainwater still clung to her hair, a drop traced along her forehead, slowly streaming down her nose, and gathered into a sparkling droplet at the tip.

To Jiao Yang, Luo Xiaoqian was in a state of disarray, her body covered in mud and water, yet he found her at this moment to be the most beautiful he had ever seen her.

Watching that teardrop-like bead of rainwater, Jiao Yang’s peach-blossom eyes darkened with profound emotion.

...

Beijing, the northern suburbs.

Leng Zimo’s sports car roared towards the rear helipad, and before the car had even come to a stop, he pushed open the door and strode towards Leng Zirui, who was briefing a few subordinates in the distance.

”How is it, any news?” Leng Zirui turned and asked.

”Mobile phone, landline... all phones are unreachable!” Leng Zimo replied with a furrowed brow, his face filled with worry.

Zhuo Yannan had already phoned to tell him that the Ganzi work team had lost all contact, and due to the power outage, even the landlines in the school were down.
