Chapter 122 The Person I Most Want to See
"Bang—" A loud noise came from the rear of the pickup truck.
The pickup truck lost control, spun around, and then crashed into a large tree on the side of the road, emitting a plume of black smoke.
The scarred man and the bald man, who were sitting in the car, lost their balance and were thrown forward, their heads hitting the deployed airbags.
"Big brother! What... what's going on?" The bald man covered his bleeding nose, his eyes filled with terror.
The scarred man wasn't much better off; he had a large bump on his forehead.
"Damn it, I want to see which blind fool is this!" The scarred man pulled out an iron bar as thick as an arm from under the car seat and kicked the car door open.
The Rolls-Royce behind it also suffered a tremendous reaction force, with a large dent in its front end.
When Su Yuchen opened the car door, the scarred man was clearly stunned for a moment, but quickly regained his furious attitude.
"Are you blind? Why aren't you walking on this wide road? What are you doing following me around like this?"
Clearly, consumed by rage, he did not recognize Su Yuchen.
Although Su Yuchen often appears online and on television, it's normal that he wouldn't recognize him in real life. After all, not everyone walking down the street would assume that the person they pass by is a celebrity.
Su Yuchen's eyes swept over the scarred man with a chilling gaze, his anger already barely contained.
"You... what are you going to do!" The scarred man didn't expect this pretty boy to act so unpredictably.
Normally, after such a stern warning from him, the person on the other side would have been terrified and would have run away in a panic. They wouldn't be as fearless as Su Yuchen.
"I also want to ask, are you and the people behind you blind? How dare you touch my people!" As soon as Su Yuchen finished speaking, he ignored the fear in the scarred man's eyes and punched him in the left cheek.
With a thud, the scarred man fell straight to the ground, the iron bar in his hand hitting the floor.
If he still doesn't know who the visitor is by now, he's lived in vain.
"Su..."
boom--
Before the scarred man could finish speaking, Su Yuchen grabbed him by the collar and punched him in the face again.
Blood trickled from the corner of the scarred man's mouth as he looked at Su Yuchen with trepidation.
"Where is she?" Su Yuchen gripped the scarred man's neck, tightening his grip little by little.
The bald man saw this scene as soon as he came down, and he was so frightened that he turned and ran. However, he hadn't gone far when an iron bar hit him on the head, knocking him to the ground.
Ignoring the scarred man's struggles, Su Yuchen forcefully slammed him onto the pickup truck. A cracking sound was heard, as if something had broken.
The scarred man was in so much pain that he couldn't speak, and he kept howling in agony.
Su Yuchen's gaze shifted and landed on the bald man covered in blood.
"Where is she?" Su Yuchen asked again, but this time he was speaking to the bald man.
The bald man lay on the ground, staring at Su Yuchen with terrified eyes.
At that moment, he sensed the presence of death.
"She...she's in the Xue family's cold storage in the suburbs." He believed that if they didn't tell him, Su Yuchen would definitely leave their lives here!
The Xue family's cold storage? He did pass by a cold storage facility when he arrived.
Su Yuchen's sinister and terrifying gaze swept over the bald man, and seeing him trembling, he went straight up, picked him up, and threw him into the back seat.
The already wrecked Rolls-Royce was started, turned around, and drove away again.
Only the scarred man lay dying in the pickup truck, struggling to pull out his phone.
……
The most important reason why the Xue family was able to abandon such a large cold storage facility was because the refrigeration equipment there was malfunctioning, and it was the kind of problem that couldn't be fixed no matter what they tried. They didn't deal with it for a long time because the Xue family was so wealthy and powerful that they didn't care. So, they just left it unattended.
But now, Yun Yao is suffering terribly from the cold air here.
In just one hour, her limbs had stiffened, and the blanket draped over her was of no use except to make her even colder.
At first, Yun Yao tried to move around to keep warm, but later she lost the energy to move at all. Her thin body leaned against the iron frame, her legs curled up, and her head buried between her knees.
She had imagined countless ways to die, but she never expected it to be such a pathetic one. If she couldn't get out in time, she, no different from any other person, would freeze to death here, with no chance of survival.
She simply couldn't understand what had gotten into her today. Why did she have to go through all this trouble to find out who was behind it all? She could have just killed them one by one, or two by two. Why go through all this trouble only to end up losing herself?
This is called "lifting a rock only to drop it on one's own foot"!
A bitter smile forced onto her pale face; she was mocking her own arrogance, and even more so, mocking this life that felt like a game.
She knew she would soon find out what ties she had with Su Yuchen, but she couldn't wait...
The eyelids slowly drooped, and it looked like they were about to close.
Experiencing death for the first time in ten thousand years, it was... worth it.
Just as she was about to lose consciousness, a blinding light suddenly appeared before her eyes, and a tall figure rushed toward her.
So it turns out... what the book said was true: when a person dies, they will see the person they most want to see.
"Su... Yuchen." She called out his name weakly, then her consciousness faded and she fainted.
"Yun Yao!" Su Yuchen's eyes widened in horror as he rushed toward her in a panic.
Just as her head was about to hit the ground, a large hand cushioned it, and he hurriedly pulled her into his arms.
"Yun Yao, wake up! Don't sleep! Don't sleep! I'll take you to the hospital!" Su Yuchen's voice trembled as he looked at the person in front of him who was almost frozen stiff.
He took off his coat and draped it over Yun Yao.
"Yun Yao, don't sleep, do you hear me? Don't sleep!" Su Yuchen carefully picked up Yun Yao and strode towards the door.
However, a scene that filled him with despair unfolded.
The bald man stood at the door, a triumphant smile playing on his lips, his eyes filled with madness.
"That's really touching, Mr. Su. Since you care about her so much, why don't you go with her?" With that, he pulled the cold storage door with all his might.
"You dare!" Su Yuchen's voice was like a thousand-year-old ice.
He glanced at the person lying stiffly in his arms and quickened his pace.
But... it was just one step away.
The heavy door was slammed shut, and the ice on the walls crumbled away.
A flicker of despair crossed Su Yuchen's eyes.
He punched the iron gate, leaving only a dent, and then there was no further sound.
He's fine, but Yun Yao isn't.
Su Yuchen sat on the ground, holding Yun Yao tightly in his arms, hoping to warm her cold body.
"Yun Yao, where's your usual ability? You've only been gone a short while, and you've already made yourself into such a mess." Su Yuchen's eyes darkened slightly, and his voice carried a hint of sorrow.
Su Yuchen cupped her hand in his palm, rubbing it while breathing warm air onto it.
He kept replaying the phone call from two hours earlier in his mind...
Yun Yao lazily told him that as soon as the banquet ended, someone couldn't wait to make a move against her. One reason was that her existence threatened someone's interests, and the other was that the person was not afraid of Su Yuchen's existence at all. In other words, he and Su Yuchen were the real enemies.
That's why Yun Yao decided to find out who was behind it all.
He would never forget the time she smiled and told him that with her there, she would never let anyone hurt him.
But now, she is in danger.
"Yun Yao, hang in there. Didn't you say you were going to find out who's behind this? You should keep your word." Su Yuchen pressed her forehead against his chin, his voice very low.
