I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

Chapter 358 Is this why you like her?

At the junction of the woods is a ravine about four meters wide and more than ten meters deep, and above the gully, a dead tree as thick as a bucket is tilted.

 It was the same route that Gu Chao took Wei Lan to before.

Because it was too dangerous, Wei Lan told Gu Chao not to go here anymore.

At this time, Wei Lan was standing next to the dead tree, holding the kerosene lamp high in his hand. The deep ravine was pitch black and bottomless.

Just as a gust of cold wind blew by, in an instant, it seemed as if thousands of invisible hands were reaching out from the abyss, trying to drag her into it.

Wei Lan's face turned pale, her peach blossom pupils shrank, and she took a few steps back in fright.

 She tried hard to build her mind, but after trying several times, she still couldn't move her legs.

It’s so, so terrible!

 However, she didn't have much time. She had already come this far and there was no room to look back.

Wei Lan took a deep breath, her eyes were red and sour, she wiped away tears, her pale lips trembled slightly, she walked to the dead tree in small steps, and took her steps cautiously.

She did not dare to look at the dark ravine below. She only dared to lock her eyes at her feet, spread her hands, and tried to maintain balance.

Yanyi, who was hiding behind the tree, saw this scene and his heart jumped into his throat.

He couldn't see the full picture of the situation on the other side of the ravine, but he could guess that the situation was dangerous through Wei Lan's series of actions.

Yanyi kept waiting for Wei Lan to return, but he didn’t!

By the time he reacted, Wei Lan had already taken the first step.

"Damn it!" Yanyi cursed in a low voice, and took a long step forward to rush forward and pull Wei Lan back. However, the attack was unsuccessful, and the riding boots he stepped out broke a dead branch.

 In the quiet night, the “click” sound of broken branches was particularly clear.

Wei Lan turned around in shock. Under the cold moonlight, her eyes widened nervously, and her soft little face was full of nervousness and fear.

The shadows of the trees in the forest behind him overlap, and under the mottled moonlight, they look so cold and heartless.

 Nothing.

Wei Lan suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Before she could relax completely, there was a "swish" sound, and the rubber soles crushed the rough bark soaked in snow water, and her body leaned back without weight.

Before he could call for help, the world in front of him quickly turned upside down, and Wei Lan fell into a deep ravine.

The curved silver moon seems far away, as if it is very close in front of you.

Her body fell rapidly, and Wei Lan had long forgotten her fear. She subconsciously stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to catch something, but could not catch anything.

 Are you going to die?

Wei Lan closed her eyes suddenly.

She, she hasn’t waited for Gu Chao to come back!

Has he not told Gu Chao that he has been targeted by Yanyi, is he going to die in this place?

This place is so remote, even if Gu Chao comes back and finds that she is missing, he will definitely not be able to find this place!

 Feeling unwilling to give in, Wei Lan suddenly opened his eyes. At the same time, there was a "click" and his wrist was clasped by a big hand.

 The body stopped falling, and there was a tearing pain in the shoulder where the body was connected to the arm.

 The stimulation made Wei Lan's eyes wet.

The kerosene lamp fell into a deep ditch and made a "dong-dong-dah" sound when it hit the ground. The flame had already been extinguished by the time it was released.

Wei Lan looked up and saw a man lying on a dead wood bridge above the ravine with the light on his back.

At this time, he was facing her and gasping loudly.

Wei Lan's lips moved, and the corners of her mouth drooped rapidly, her psychological defenses completely collapsed.

 “Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…” A sob could not express the sorrow and hesitation in my heart, and the crystal tears could no longer be restrained from leaking out. “I’m here, don’t be afraid, Nannan.”

The moonlight was cold and merciless, and the man's face was cold and haggard, but his voice was like light shining through the ice. The indifference contained a fiery temperature, disintegrating the layers of thorn bushes surrounding her.

 Gu Chao had small beads of sweat on his forehead, and the five fingers of his left hand were tightly clasped into the dead wood. The muscles of Wei Lan's right arm exploded quickly, and he actually pulled Wei Lan up from the abyss.

“Brother Chao!” After escaping from the abyss, Wei Lan fell onto a dead tree, her cheek buried deeply in Gu Chao’s arms, her left hand was dislocated and unable to hang down, and her intact right hand tightly grasped the hem of Gu Chao’s clothes and refused to let go.

"Why did you come back...I'm scared to death!"

Wei Lan's face was full of tears from crying, a few strands of hair stuck to the side of her face, more tears fell from her eyes, and soon followed the arc and disappeared into Gu Chao's clothes.

Her body couldn't help trembling, and she wanted to pour out all the emotions she had experienced during this period: worry, guilt about Yanyi, and the panic and uneasiness caused by Yanyi's pressure.

　　Yes, from the beginning, Yanyi has been putting pressure on her in disguise, forcing her to go up the mountain and inform the people in the mountain! And she had no right to refuse.

However, her mouth seemed to be speechless for an instant. She couldn't say anything, she could only cry.

A hand that was as soft as a bone, like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw, held on to Gu Chao tightly and dared not let go.

 At this time, only Gu Chao can give her comfort and security!

 “I’m here, I’m not afraid anymore, it’s okay, I’m here, I’m here.”

Gu Chao's voice trembled slightly, and his heart was beating loudly in his chest.

 The moment just now scared him to pieces!

With trembling hands, he took the lost girl into his arms and quickly brought her to that dangerous place.

 Gu Chao found a dry big tree on the edge of the ravine. The roots of the big tree were raised and there was a certain distance from the ground. Because of the canopy of the tree, it was not eroded by rain and snow.

　　After putting Wei Lan down and settling down, Gu Chao was afraid, so he held Wei Lan tightly in his arms and refused to let go for a long time.

 What would have been the result if, if he had not come back, or had not chosen to take this path?

Gu Chao shivered and did not dare to think further.

Wei Lan whimpered in his arms. After a moment, she pushed him gently and said, "Brother Chao, it hurts..."

"Where does it hurt?" Gu Chao lowered his head, and then noticed Wei Lan's left hand hanging down weakly. He just touched it lightly, and Wei Lan's tears suddenly fell quickly and fiercely.

Wei Lan shook her head and shrank, refusing to let him touch her again.

Wei Lan buried her head into Gu Chao's arms. She wanted Gu Chao to hug her, but suddenly she remembered the purpose of her appearance here.

She raised her head, looking flustered and anxious: "Brother Chao, Yanyi found out, he found out..."

Yanyi wants to search the mountain. What if he finds out the clues and seizes the clue?

Wei Lan started to speak incoherently when she became nervous.

"It's okay, it's okay." Gu Chao held her in his arms distressedly, patted her back, and softly comforted the hesitant girl.

 When Wei Lan gradually calmed down, Gu Chaocai gently let go of her, "Just here, wait for me, okay?"

"Huh?" Wei Lan didn't know what she meant, but she saw Gu Chao untied the package from behind and threw it beside her legs, then stood up.

Under the cold moonlight, his back was tall and broad, blocking the moonlight and casting a shadow on her body.

Just for a moment, the shadow disappeared, and Gu rushed out in a dive. There was a "bang" in the darkness, and there was the sound of something heavy falling to the ground.

 “Is this why you like her?”

In the shadow of the trees, his vision was dim and unclear. Gu Chao's eyebrows became deeper and sharper, and his voice was bone-chilling.
