After the whole network was blacked out, I made the boss the canary

He looked at Fu Chaoge's face and guessed that something big must have happened. He quickly confirmed his destination and booked a plane ticket.

"When can this plane fly?" Chu Qiao asked the airport staff with a frown.

"Sorry, sir, it's raining heavily in City A, so it's hard to say the exact time." The staff member also looked helpless.

Chu Qiao nodded and squeezed through the bustling crowd and returned to the cabin.

As soon as she stepped over the threshold, she met Fu Chaoge's eyes that were cold enough to freeze, and Chu Qiao couldn't help but shudder.

"The take-off time has not been decided yet." Chu Qiao reported quickly.

"No need to wait, let's get off the plane and drive there." Fu Chaoge's tone left no room for doubt.

Chu Qiao became anxious when she heard this. The plane made an emergency landing in City C, which was far away from City A. It would take at least two days to drive there at the fastest speed, and at least a day and a night without sleep.

He quickly grabbed Fu Chaoge and shook his head seriously.

"It takes at least a day and a night to drive to City A. It's better to wait on the plane. What if we can fly earlier?"

Fu Chaoge certainly understood Chu Qiao's concerns, but he was extremely anxious. There was a mudslide in Chen Shuo's place and he couldn't get through on the phone, so how could he sit still?

Just then, news came from China, confirming what had happened to Chen Shu's crew, and Fu Chaoge's heart instantly rose to his throat.

He called Chen Shu's phone number again and again, but no one answered, which made him even more anxious.

Chu Qiao saw it and felt pain in her heart. She gently patted Fu Chaoge's shoulder to give him some comfort.

Fortunately, God was merciful. Two hours later, the plane finally took off again and arrived in City A smoothly.

As soon as they arrived in City A, Fu Chaoge couldn't wait to rent a car and took Chu Qiao straight to the village where the crew was.

But halfway through the journey, we were stopped by the traffic police, who told us that the road ahead was closed.

"When will it be available?" Chu Qiao knew Fu Chaoge's temper and hurried forward to ask.

"It's hard to say. It's raining all the time and we're working hard to repair it." The traffic police also looked helpless.

"Try to repair it? The people inside are waiting for help! Do you know that?" Fu Chaoge got angry when he heard it. He slammed the steering wheel heavily, his face frighteningly gloomy.

The traffic policeman seemed to be used to Fu Chaoge's anxious attitude. He remained patient and gently persuaded him: "Don't worry, we will be able to open the road at dawn. I promise, please understand and cooperate with our work, and stop by the roadside and wait first."

Seeing this, Chu Qiao took out a pack of cigarettes and wanted to hand one to the traffic policeman to get closer to him, but was politely refused.

He smiled awkwardly, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, then fumbled around for a lighter.

At this moment, Fu Chaoge suddenly took over and snatched the cigarette and lighter from his hand. He lit one first and then handed the rest back to Chu Qiao.

In the smoke, Chu Qiao looked at Fu Chaoge's tense face and teased, "Didn't you say you would quit smoking? Why are you smoking again?"

"I feel upset." Fu Chaoge answered briefly, his tone full of helplessness and anxiety.

He regretted deeply at this moment. He hated himself for not coming to City A with Chen Shu, and hated himself even more for not stopping Yu Wanyang's decision.

However, regret was useless. He could only sit in this small space, staring at the place that was so close yet so far away, feeling powerless in his heart.

Chu Qiao could naturally understand Fu Chaoge's feelings. He took a puff of cigarette silently and said nothing more.

The two of them looked through the windshield at the mountain shrouded in night in the distance, their faces looking particularly heavy.

As the night deepened, the drizzle that had lasted all day finally stopped, and a cool breeze blew through the car window.

Chu Qiao tossed and turned in the passenger seat, wrapped her suit tightly around her, and reluctantly opened her tired eyes and asked, "What time is it?"

Fu Chaoge didn't look at the watch and answered directly: "It's two o'clock in the morning."

His eyes were always fixed in a certain direction, where fire trucks and police were busy clearing the road, and shadowy figures were visible under the bright lights.

The car fell into silence again. Chu Qiao wanted to persuade Fu Chaoge to take a rest, but she saw him suddenly open the car door and get out resolutely.

"Where are you going?" Chu Qiao asked, but received no response. She had no choice but to retract half of her body into the car, then opened the door and got out, quickly catching up with Fu Chaoge who was already striding forward.

On the forest path, as the sky gradually turns pale, the green of the leaves becomes more and more vivid in the morning light.

The flames in the fire crackled, and Chen Shuo woke up slowly. He looked around in confusion, only to see everyone sitting in a circle, snoring softly.

She tightened her clothes, stood up, walked to the fire, and added a few more firewood.

The continuous rain had trapped them in the mountains for nearly two days, and everyone's food supplies were almost exhausted.

When will the rescue arrive? Where is Fu Chaoge busy at the moment? Has he noticed that her phone is out of battery? All kinds of thoughts swirled in Chen Shu's mind.

"What? You can't sleep either?" Xia Wei's voice interrupted her thoughts. He walked over and sat down beside her with a faint smile on his face.

"Yeah, I can't sleep well. Brother Wei, too?" Chen Shu responded. The two of them sat around the fire, and the coldness around them seemed to be dispelled a lot by the warmth.

"As I get older, my sleep becomes shallower. But it's almost dawn, I hope today will be a good day." Xia Wei said with emotion.

"Yes, I hope so." Chen Shuo looked at the sky gradually turning white and prayed silently in his heart.

As if it heard their voices, the sun slowly rose from the east, and its warm light gradually spread over the earth.

People often say that the sunrise on the top of a mountain or at the seaside is the most spectacular, but in Chen Shuo's opinion, no sunrise at any moment can compare to the tranquility and beauty of this moment.

"The sun is out! Everyone wake up and watch the sunrise!" Someone's cheer broke the tranquility of the early morning.

The sleeping people woke up one after another and looked at the figure jumping in the morning light in confusion.

When the first ray of sunlight penetrated the woods and shone on their faces, everyone woke up instantly and stood up to greet the long-lost light.

Just as everyone was immersed in joy, the roar of a car engine was heard in the distance.

Everyone immediately became excited and rushed to the edge of the hillside, waving and screaming at the vehicles coming in the distance.

Although Chen Shuo was a little slow to react, he quickly joined the cheering crowd under the pull of Nuandong.

In the distance, ambulances, fire trucks and police cars drove in slowly, led by a speeding black SUV that stopped in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.

Fu Chaoge, dressed in black, jumped out of the car with big strides, and with a step of his long legs, he quickly ran towards the center of the crowd.

As he got closer and closer to the petite figure, his heartbeat quickened, as if it was about to jump out of his chest.
