The CEO's 100 Billion Bride: The Secret War of the Rich

Chapter 129: Unexpected incident in the mountain village, tenderness

Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen hurried back to the company and held an emergency meeting overnight to deal with the global network attack of "Black Claw". After a day and a night of hard work, they finally succeeded in curbing the spread of the attack and avoiding greater losses.

However, the crisis has not been completely resolved. The technical team of the Huo Group discovered that the hackers of "Black Claw" are preparing a new round of larger-scale attacks.

"We must find their main control center," Huo Yanshen said tiredly but firmly, "Only by cutting off their command system can we completely prevent this disaster."

Su Wanwan nodded, with a gleam of wisdom in her eyes. "According to our analysis, their main control center is likely located in a remote mountainous area in Province S. The terrain there is complex and the communication infrastructure is backward, making it an ideal place to hide a hacker base."

Huo Yanshen pondered for a moment and made a decision: "Let's go there in person. This matter is too important to rely entirely on others."

"I'll go with you," Su Wanwan said firmly, "We are a team. No matter what we face, we must face it together."

Huo Yanshen looked at his wife's resolute eyes, and a warm current surged in his heart. He knew that no matter what difficulties and obstacles he encountered, with her by his side, he would have infinite strength.

The two packed up briefly, took the necessary equipment, and drove to the mountainous area of ​​Province S overnight. At dawn, their car had already entered the winding mountain road.

"According to GPS positioning, the target area is less than 10 kilometers ahead," Su Wanwan said while looking at the tablet, "but the signal is getting weaker and weaker."

Huo Yanshen frowned: "The terrain is too complicated, we have to be careful."

At this moment, it suddenly started to rain heavily. The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the mountain road became slippery and difficult to drive. Huo Yanshen held the steering wheel tightly and drove carefully.

Suddenly, there was a loud noise and the car jolted violently.

"Oh no, the tire is flat," Huo Yanshen quickly checked the situation, "The spare tire was also damaged in the bumpy ride just now."

Su Wanwan looked around, and could hardly see the surrounding scenery in the heavy rain: "How far is it from here to the nearest town?"

Huo Yanshen shook his head. "At least 30 kilometers. It's too dangerous to walk in this weather."

Just when the two were in trouble, the sound of a dog barking was faintly heard in the distance.

"There seems to be a house over there," Su Wanwan pointed in the direction of the sound and said, "Let's go over and take a look."

The two walked forward cautiously in the heavy rain. After walking for about ten minutes, they saw a small mountain village. The village was not big, with a dozen or so households scattered around. The smoke from the cooking stoves rose up, making it look particularly warm in the rain.

Arriving at the door of the nearest house, Su Wanwan knocked gently.

"Who is it?" an old voice came from inside.

"Uncle, we are from other places and our car broke down in the mountain. Can we take shelter from the rain in your house temporarily?" Su Wanwan asked politely.

The door creaked open, and a white-haired old man poked his head out. Seeing Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen, who were soaking wet, a trace of pity flashed in the old man's eyes: "Come in quickly, it's raining so hard outside, don't catch a cold."

Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen walked into the house gratefully. The old man's wife had already prepared hot tea and towels.

"Come, have some hot tea to warm yourself up," the old lady said kindly, "Where are you going? Why did you come to such a remote place?"

Huo Yanshen took the hot tea and replied politely: "We came here to do something, but we didn't expect to encounter such a heavy rain. Thank you so much."

The old man waved his hand and said, "Don't be polite. It's all my duty. You should dry your clothes first. The rain won't stop anytime soon."

Su Wanwan looked around. Although the house was simple, it was very clean. There were a few yellowed old photos hanging on the wall, and an old-fashioned TV in the corner.

"Uncle, aunt, do you usually live here?" Su Wanwan asked curiously.

The old man nodded. "Yes, we have lived here all our lives. All the children have gone to the city, and we are the only two old guys left to look after this home."

Hearing this, Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen were both moved. They thought of their parents and couldn't help feeling a little guilty.

At this moment, there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside. A 17 or 18-year-old boy rushed into the house, soaking wet: "Grandpa, grandma, it's bad! The old locust tree at the entrance of the village was struck by lightning and blocked the entire intersection!"

The old man was shocked: "What should we do? It would be troublesome if someone got sick and needed to go to town to see a doctor."

Huo Yanshen stood up and said, "Uncle, let us help. Although we can't move the tree, we can at least clear a path."

Su Wanwan also stood up: "Yes, let's go and take a look together."

The old man hesitated: "It's raining so hard and you just arrived. Don't catch a cold."

Huo Yanshen smiled and said, "It's okay, sir. Since you took us in, we should also contribute to the village."

Led by the old man, the group braved the rain and arrived at the entrance of the village. As expected, a huge old locust tree lay across the middle of the road, completely blocking the way.

Huo Yanshen took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves and started working without saying anything. Su Wanwan was not to be outdone and joined the young people in the village in carrying small branches.

Working in the rain was not easy, but everyone worked together and gradually cleared a narrow passage.

When I got back to the old lady's house, it was almost dark. The old lady had already prepared a steaming hot dinner.

"Come, have a taste of our mountain food," the old lady said with a smile, "Although it's not as good as the delicacies from the city, they are all grown in our own home, pure and natural."

There were a few simple dishes on the table: stir-fried wild vegetables, bacon and potatoes, and a plate of peanuts just dug out of the ground. Although simple, they exuded a rich aroma.

Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen both felt unprecedented hunger and began to eat voraciously.

"It's delicious!" Su Wanwan praised sincerely, "It's more delicious than any delicacies I've ever eaten."

The old man smiled happily: "As long as you like it. Come, eat more."

After dinner, the rain eased a little. The old man's grandson Xiao Ming suggested taking Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen for a walk around the village.

The mountain village seemed particularly peaceful under the moonlight, with the gurgling creek, the croaking of frogs, and occasionally the barking of dogs in the distance.

"Do you live here?" Su Wanwan asked Xiao Ming curiously.

Xiao Ming nodded: "Yes, although it is not as prosperous as the city, the air and environment here are good. Moreover, my dearest grandparents are here."

Hearing this, Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen fell into deep thought. They thought of their childhood, the happy times they spent in the countryside.

When we returned to the old lady's house, she had already cleaned up a room.

"You can sleep here tonight," the old lady said kindly, "the sheets and quilt covers are all new, so you can rest assured."

Su Wanwan was so moved that she almost cried: "Auntie, thank you so much."

The old lady waved her hand and said, "Don't be polite. It's all my duty. Have a good rest. I'll ask Xiao Ming to take you out of the mountain tomorrow morning."

Lying on the bed, listening to the sound of rain outside the window, Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen both felt an unprecedented tranquility.

"Yan Shen," Su Wanwan said softly, "Do you feel that we haven't spent a peaceful night like this in a long time?"

Huo Yanshen held his wife's hand and said, "Yes, here, there is no deception or scheming, only the purest humanity."

Su Wanwan leaned on her husband's shoulder and said, "Have we not cared about our parents for too long? We are always busy with work and neglect the most important family affection."

Huo Yanshen was silent for a moment and sighed softly: "You are right. When this matter is over, we must spend some time with them."

“Well,” Su Wanwan nodded, “Also, I was thinking, maybe we can do something for this village. Like helping them repair the roads and improve the communication facilities.”

Huo Yanshen smiled in agreement: "This is a good idea. We have the ability and should make our own contributions to society."

Just like that, on this quiet rainy night, in this remote mountain village, Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen not only found a temporary shelter, but also regained the long-lost peace and warmth. They deeply realized that no matter what challenges they faced in the future, as long as they had this pure love and kindness in their hearts, they would be able to overcome all difficulties.

The sound of rain gradually faded, and the moonlight shone through the clouds onto the windowsill. Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen smiled at each other and fell into a sweet dream.
