After the divorce, I became a rich girl

Chapter 88 Shining Starlight

Li Yan quickly instructed the technical team to debug the drone and cleverly mounted the small robot dog on the drone, preparing for long-distance delivery.

After everything was ready, eight drones carrying robot dogs headed towards the hinterland of Luoxia Mountain under the windy and snowy night.

At the same time, Li Jiawei knew nothing about the emergency rescue operations outside the mountain. In order to resist the severe cold at night, she went out again, cut a lot of firewood as a backup, and melted snow water in a thermos cup for emergency use. Back in the cabin, she took out the toiletries, cleaned it briefly, and then soaked a face towel and handed it to Xiao Yi, "Here, wipe your face."

Xiao Yi took the face towel and said softly, "Thank you."

Li Jiawei took out her phone to check the time. It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening. Recalling the thrilling day, she felt exhausted physically and mentally. The only thing she wanted was to lie down and have a good sleep.

She noticed that Xiao Yi had finished washing up, so she looked out the window and saw that although the snowflakes were becoming less and less, they were still falling. She lowered her head and asked softly, "Do you need to deal with any personal issues?"

Xiao Yi was slightly startled when he heard this, then nodded in agreement. Li Jiawei gently pulled out the sleeping bag from under him and said, "I'll help you out."

After walking out of the wooden house, Xiao Yi was shocked to find out how heavy the snow was outside. The falling snow almost half covered the wooden house. There was only a narrow passage, which Li Jiawei had walked out with great difficulty.

The wind was freezing and snowflakes were falling endlessly. The scene before him made him deeply realize how difficult and tenacious it was for Li Jiawei to drag him forward despite being injured.

Xiao Yi couldn't help but take a deep breath, his eyes slightly wet. Although he was a well-known actor, surrounded by many fans and work teams, everyone said they loved him, liked him, and supported him, but at this critical moment, could anyone save him regardless of their own safety?

Li Jiawei supported Xiao Yi and walked to a huge rock not far away, and whispered, "Remember to call me when you are better." Xiao Yi nodded in agreement.

Li Jiawei returned to the wooden house alone. It was dark at night. She looked up at the sky and wondered to herself: When can I get out of here?

When the two returned to the cabin, Li Jiawei looked at the bare wooden bed and the sleeping bag beside it. She turned to Xiao Yi and said, "You sleep in the sleeping bag tonight, and I sleep on this bed?"

Xiao Yi looked around. This bed was some distance from the fire, and the temperature would definitely drop at night, so he suggested, "It's freezing at night, and this sleeping bag is big enough. If you don't mind, why don't we sleep in the sleeping bag together? We can keep each other warm and avoid catching a cold at night. We are currently short of medicines, and if rescue from the outside world is blocked, we need to protect ourselves even more."

"Sleep... together?" Li Jiawei looked at Xiao Yi with surprise when she heard that.

Xiao Yi nodded seriously. "Yes, this way we can all maintain our body temperature and reduce the possibility of getting sick. In the uncertain waiting, this is the best arrangement at the moment."

Li Jiawei hesitated for a moment, her eyes wandering back and forth between the sleeping bag and the wooden bed, and finally agreed to Xiao Yi's proposal. She was afraid of cold, and if she slept on the wooden bed at night, she would definitely catch a cold in the morning. So, she added firewood to the fire and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Li Jiawei gently took off her parka and noticed the dried blood stains on the sleeve of her left sweater. She hesitated for a moment and asked softly, "Xiao Yi, can you turn your head? I want to change my clothes."

"Okay." Xiao Yi responded and turned his gaze to the window. Although it was already white there and almost covered with snow, he was secretly worried in his heart, wondering whether this wooden house could still withstand the invasion of heavy snow when he woke up tomorrow.

Li Jiawei carefully took off her clothes until she was left with only a sling on her upper body. She was glad that she had treated the wound before, otherwise the sweater would have stuck to the wound. She lowered her head to examine the shocking wound on her arm, which was surrounded by coagulated blood and looked particularly hideous.

She looked up at Xiao Yi who was still staring out the window, and her voice became even lower. "Xiao Yi, can you help me take care of my wound again?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yi turned his gaze back to her, and saw her stretching out her scarred arm, which was already swollen, and his heart ached. He noticed the eye-catching bright red bloodstains on her snow-white skin, as well as the heart-wrenching wound, and felt extremely heavy.

He took a deep breath, took out disinfectant wipes from his backpack, and gently wiped the blood around her wound. Then, he picked up the alcohol spray and said with a hint of reluctance, "It will hurt, just bear with it."

Li Jiawei closed her eyes tightly and clenched her teeth, enduring the severe pain caused by the alcohol contacting her wound. The pain seemed to be more intense than when she bandaged her hands, making it almost impossible for her to make a sound. She could only let her body tremble in pain. Finally, the wound was rebandaged. She was sweating profusely and her whole body was wet. She carefully put on her pajamas and cotton clothes, thanked Xiao Yi, and slowly got into the sleeping bag and lay down next to Xiao Yi.

In this small space, the two were so close that they could feel each other's breath. This quiet intimacy brought an indescribable peace. The wind and snow outside seemed to be isolated by this warm breath, leaving only the sound of each other's heartbeat and breathing, comforting each other in the cold winter night.

At the same time, outside Luoxia Mountain, Li Yan stared at the screen and watched the last drone crash after struggling in the snowstorm. He angrily punched the table, then rubbed his forehead helplessly and said to the leaders around him, "The snowstorm is too strong, and it's night time, so visibility is almost zero. The drone can't get close to the hinterland of Luoxia Mountain at all."

Seeing this, Li Hongxing gently patted Li Ronghua on the shoulder and tried to comfort him. "Now we can only wait until the wind and snow stop before we can act. Besides, it is late at night now. Both the weather and environmental conditions are not suitable for rescue."

Li Ronghua looked up at Li Yan, his eyes full of anxiety. "How many drones does the company have available now?"

Li Yan quickly replied, "There are still ten crosses, but they are all in the experimental stage. The current rescue environment is not optimistic. We need to wait for a better time."

"Ship them all here, and at the same time contact other companies to purchase a large number of drones at any cost. What we want is quantity, one hundred, two hundred, three hundred... until one can break through the wind and snow and find them. As long as we find the people, we can immediately airdrop supplies and ensure Jiawei's safety." Li Ronghua's words revealed his unquestionable determination.

Following his instructions, an unprecedented rescue operation was quickly launched. At around 4 a.m., more than 400 drones, under the precise control of technicians, took off into the sky like the brightest stars in the night sky, and headed towards Luoxia Mountain with hope and determination. They drew brilliant tracks in the sky, shining with stars, becoming the most magnificent scenery in this cold winter night.

At this time, Li Jiawei woke up in warmth and shyness. She found herself nestled tightly in Xiao Yi's arms, and their postures were so intimate that she couldn't help but blush and shyly closed her eyes again.

She carefully got out of the sleeping bag, felt the invasion of cold air from outside, and quickly wrapped herself tightly in her cotton clothes.

She noticed that the fire was about to go out, so she quickly stood up, picked up some firewood from the side and added it to the fire, making the flames jump again and dispel the coldness around them.

Then, she gently opened the door of the cabin, trying not to make any noise, tiptoed out of the house, and carefully closed the door, looking at the silent world covered with ice and snow.
