Substitute new wife: Mr. Pei, are you getting divorced today?

Pei Yanzhou's words were like a tranquilizer shot on Cheng Xi.

She shuddered and restrained her trembling body.

Yes, you have to calm down now.

"Yes, how did Ling Zheng disappear?"

Cheng Xi stared closely into Qi Haochu's eyes and asked.

"I do not know."

Qi Haochu's voice was full of fatigue, "We asked employees to come out for team building on weekends. I also knew that it would disturb everyone's rest, so when we climbed the mountain today, I told the employees that whoever climbed to the top of the mountain first would be rewarded 10,000 yuan. When we set off, several Everyone who has seen Ling Zheng said she was at the front, but I was the second person to reach the top of the mountain and didn’t see her.”

Pei Yanzhou asked: "Who is the first to reach the top of the mountain?"

"It's Manager Li from the Publicity Department of our company. He usually runs, exercises, and participates in outdoor activities when he has time. I asked Manager Li and he said that when he set off, he saw Ling Zheng following him. Then more than ten minutes later There was no trace of Ling Zheng, I guess I didn’t catch up with him, this was also the last time our colleagues in the company saw Ling Zheng.”

Qi Haochu said with a headache: "The firefighters have been looking between the place where Director Li last saw Ling Zheng and the top of the mountain. Everyone suspects that Ling Zheng may... have fallen under the cliff."

Cheng Xi swayed. She had been to Niangniang Mountain with her classmates a few years ago, and she knew very well how deep the cliffs were.

"No, there is only a short section of the road up the mountain that is steep. The sun has been shining during this period, so the mountain road will not be slippery. Ling Zheng also lived in the countryside, so she will not be so careless..."

Pei Yanzhou hugged her shoulders tightly and whispered: "I asked my connections to arrange for someone to come find Ling Zheng. In addition, I will bring two more drones over..."

"I've already brought the drone over."

Qi Haochu said, "It's still the latest model, but there are many ancient trees in the mountains that are very lush, and the drone can't fly too low."

Pei Yanzhou could tell that Qi Haochu, the boss, was looking for Ling Zheng very carefully, and even the fatigue and anxiety on his face could not be concealed.

Looking at the other remaining employees in the company, they are probably not as good as Qi Haochu, the boss.

At this time, a group of firefighters came down from the mountain, led by the detachment leader responsible for the search. He was also carrying a black sports bag in his hand.

"This belongs to Ling Zheng." Cheng Xi recognized it at a glance.

"The drone found this bag under a resting platform on the north slope. Our people tied it with ropes and slid down for a while to find the bag."

The detachment leader said: "We took a look at the things inside and found the missing person's mobile phone and ID card."

"Yes, Ling Zheng is carrying this bag today." Qi Haochu's face turned ugly. He suddenly thought of something and asked immediately: "What kind of platform are you talking about?"

"This." The detachment leader handed over the photo he took.

Qi Hao took a first look, thought hard for a few seconds, and said suddenly: "I remembered it. When I was approaching this platform in the morning, I seemed to hear a strange sound coming from above. I thought someone was resting on it, but when I went up When the time came, there was nothing.”

"What noise did you hear?"

"I can't tell. There was a female employee buzzing around me all the time. I didn't pay much attention." Qi Haochu regretted it so much. If he had paid more attention at that time, he would have discovered Ling Zheng's accident earlier.

The detachment leader said: "The guardrails here are made of several ropes and are very low. It is very likely that Ling Zheng accidentally fell down when she was resting here. It is quite troublesome. The cliff below is very steep. Ling Zheng is sure Hanging on the treetops below, she might have fallen deeper. To be honest, it might be... the worst is worse."

Cheng Xi's face turned pale.

When she saw the photo of the platform taken by the detachment leader just now, she expected that Ling Zheng might have fallen off the cliff.

But the rescuers who heard it with their own ears still found it hard to accept.

How did that happen.

Ming Ming had made a phone call the night before to make an appointment with a good friend to have a drink with, but something happened in the blink of an eye.

"The branches below are dense. If someone doesn't fall directly to the bottom of the mountain, there is still a chance of survival."

Pei Yanzhou suddenly said, "No matter what, if you want to see the person alive or the corpse if you die, if the person can be found tonight, she may still have a 10% chance of living. If she gives up tonight, she will definitely die." , we are Ling Zheng’s family members, and we are willing to spend one million for your rescue. In addition, if you need any advanced equipment, please feel free to ask."

"Yes." Cheng Xi said immediately. She was afraid that the rescuers would not want to go in to rescue people at night.

The detachment leader was stunned and looked at Qi Haochu, "Mr. Qi of the employee company has already offered one million to search for people. You don't have to pay this money anymore. Don't worry. I didn't say I couldn't rescue. In addition, we also summoned A professional forest rescue team, if it is convenient, of course it would be better to have a helicopter. In addition, I would like to remind you that this helicopter should have better technology, because we need to fly at low altitude."

"That's no problem, I'll arrange it right away."

Pei Yanzhou thought for a while. He didn't know many helicopter friends, but Lu Chongli probably knew more.

He immediately walked aside and took out his cell phone to call Lu Chongli, "Lingzheng had an accident during team building and fell off a cliff. Now the rescue team needs a helicopter. Do you have any friends who are more skilled in this area?"

On the other end of the phone, Lu Chongli took a deep breath, "Yes, I have a friend who studied helicopters after graduating from aviation school, and later joined a professional rescue team. I will give you his phone number right away, Ling Zheng..." "

"...It's more bad than good."

Pei Yanzhou told the truth behind Cheng Xi's back.

Lu Chongli's mind went blank, and he murmured after a while: "How could it be...I'll take the earliest flight back right away."

"Why did you come back? You and Ling Zheng have no other relationship apart from an ordinary relationship."

Pei Yanzhou hung up the phone without hesitation. Soon, Lu Chongli called. His friend's name was Yi Jian.

In less than forty minutes, Yi Jian arrived in a helicopter.

Cheng Xi originally wanted to go up, but Pei Yanzhou refused to let him go, "What are you going up for? Lingzheng fell below. Can you see it from above? Forest rescue is not that simple. We laymen like us said to the past It might even cause trouble for others.”

After hearing this, Cheng Xi glared at Pei Yanzhou with a pair of red eyes.

Pei Yanzhou quickly put her in his arms and said softly, "Cheng Xi, I know what I said is not nice, and you are worried about Ling Zheng, but what I told is also the truth."

Cheng Xi buried her face in his arms and couldn't hold back the tears anymore, "I really don't understand why this world is so cruel to Ling Zheng. I always thought I was miserable, but Ling Zheng was even worse. Hers Her parents, younger brother, and grandparents never loved her. She finally graduated and got a job, but she was still being used by her parents. Now she finally got rid of the Ling family's arrogant parents and bought a new house. She finally has a home and a family. She had a stable job, but something unexpected happened to her. She was still so young."

Pei Yanzhou felt sad in his heart, and he felt sorry for Ling Zheng.

"I still can't figure out how Ling Zheng fell under the cliff."

Cheng Xi murmured: "Do you think...could someone in the company push Ling Zheng down on purpose?"

Pei Yanzhou was stunned, "Ling Zheng is in the middle between the first and third place. The first place is the head of the Propaganda Department. There is no competition in the workplace with Ling Zheng from the two departments. The other one is Qi Haochu. This Qi Haochu is also the president of the company after all. After Ling Zheng disappeared, he was the first to find Ling Zheng, and it was he who reported the police. He also offered to use one million to search and rescue people. I suspect that he is interested in Ling Zheng. There is no reason for him to do so. Kill Ling Zheng."

"Too."

Cheng Xi slumped, "Actually, Ling Zheng often says that Mr. Qi treats employees very well. He doesn't look down on her because of her age, and gives every young employee equal opportunities for promotion, but I still can't help but hate him. , if it weren’t for him, how could Ling Zheng have an accident when she came out for team building and mountain climbing?”

"He probably didn't want to. Look at how many media came around. It's probably Qi Haochu's rivals from competing companies who leaked the news. Some bosses had already returned to the company for emergency public relations. If something happened to the company's employees during team building, it would be a big mistake. If he is not good, it will ruin the company's reputation. The fact that he is still here shows that he really cares about Ling Zheng."

"What kind of benefits did Qi Haochu give you, and you actually said good things to him?"

Cheng Xi glared at Pei Yanzhou fiercely. Even if she knew what Pei Yanzhou said was right, she didn't want to hear it now.

"Okay, I won't talk about it."

Pei Yanzhou touched her cold hand, quickly took off his coat and put it on Cheng Xi.

The night is getting darker.

Many people couldn't bear it and went back one after another.

Pei Yanzhou, Cheng Xi, and Qi Haochu have been waiting at the foot of the mountain.

With every hour that passed, Cheng Xi's face became more desperate.

Until four o'clock in the morning.

Qi Haochu received a call from the rescue team, and then said happily: "The rescue team found Ling Zheng. The medical staff said that Ling Zheng still has a heartbeat. Now the helicopter has sent the person directly to Sioux City Hospital for rescue."

When Cheng Xi stood up, his legs were still weak.

"Let's go to the hospital."

Pei Yanzhou pulled her into the car.

"Give me a ride."

Qi Haochu didn't care so much and hurriedly got into the back seat.

More than an hour later, the three of them arrived at the hospital. Ling Zheng had been rescuing him in the emergency room for some time.

Medical staff involved in the on-site rescue said: "The rescuers found her on an old tree below the cliff. It is estimated that when she fell down the cliff, many trees below buffered the speed of the cliff fall. However, when she was rescued, her body was still heavy. There were fractures, internal organs were severely damaged, and the person had lost consciousness. Fortunately, everyone rescued him overnight, and if he had been found an hour or two later, there would have been no signs of life."

"Thank you, thank you so much."

Cheng Xi held the other person's hand and was so moved that she didn't know what to say.

"You're welcome, this is my duty."
