But just at that mont, the mountainside on the other side had completely collapsed with a "boom..."
Ji Hanyu was holding the child and had already reached the middle of the suspension bridge, almost out of danger.
However, the collapsing boulders instantly broke the suspension bridge.
The broken bridge on the landslide side, along with the boulders, fell into the deep abyss.
"Ji Hanyu..."
"Boss..."
"Mr. Ji..."
That dangerous scene left everyone in shock, their hearts in their throats.
At that critical mont, Ji Hanyu leaped and grabbed the rope on the other side of the bridge.
The collapsing boulders only broke half of the bridge; the side Bai Haoxue and the others were on was left hanging in the sky over the deep abyss.
With the tail end of the suspension bridge hanging, Ji Hanyu held the child with one hand and tightly gripped the bridge rope with the other.
As everyone breathed a sigh of relief, a new worry arose.
Because it was extrely high and dangerous, and Ji Hanyu was holding a child; he couldn’t possibly climb up with just one hand.
Furthermore, the suspension bridge hanging mid-air was already unstable, and now, with two people on it, it was even more precarious.
"Bring the rope over quick," Lin Zhan shouted.
Bai Haoxue put the rope around herself, and just as Lin Zhan was about to speak, she interrupted him.
"Just throwing the rope down is useless; it won’t save Ji Han or the child.
Ji Hanyu has a child in his arms now; he only has one hand free, and can’t move or hold on for long."
Bai Haoxue tied the rope around her waist, "You pull from above, I’ll go down, and I’ll use the rope to secure the child. You pull the child up first."
With the child no longer there, it wouldn’t be too difficult for Ji Hanyu to co up.
"Miss Bai, let go," Lin Zhan quickly put the rope around himself.
Bai Haoxue, "I’m more agile than you, and I weigh less. Who do you think is more suitable?"
Without further words, Bai Haoxue secured the rope around her waist, and the villagers above held on tightly, slowly lowering her down.
Ji Hanyu watched as Bai Haoxue descended along the cliff and the suspension bridge, initially wanting to yell for her to go back, but he was afraid his sudden shout would startle her.
Bai Haoxue moved gracefully and lightly, and with the villagers’ help, she quickly reached above Ji Hanyu.
Seeing Bai Haoxue coming to rescue him, Ji Hanyu felt a mix of emotions too complex to put into words, "Bai Haoxue, you troubleso woman, can you give a break?"
Bai Haoxue, "Ji Hanyu, I don’t want to talk to you right now. How many tis did you scare today, and you still have the nerve to say I trouble you? I’m still on the edge of anger!"
Ji Hanyu: "..."
Without wasting more words with Ji Hanyu, Bai Haoxue shouted to Lin Zhan above, "Lin Zhan, drop two more ropes."
The ropes were thrown down, and Bai Haoxue thodically tied one around the child’s waist.
Seeing the child that Ji Hanyu almost risked his life to save, Bai Haoxue couldn’t help but take a few more glances.
The child was very good-looking and appeared very calm.
His skin was unusually pale, a very unhealthy pale.
Tear stains were still visible near his eyes, yet at this mont, amidst such danger, his big eyes showed no fear or panic.
Moreover, since she ca down, he hadn’t said a word...
He just allowed her to tie the rope around him, not resisting or refusing.
[The hero gets scolded even after rescuing a child, it’s ridiculous. Every scene has its purpose, and this child will play a significant role later!]
