Seeing Long Mei’s name appear on the screen, Ximen Jin’s eyes immediately stung.

  He stood up from the chair.

  Because he had been so anxious, the chair scratched against the floor, making a sharp screech.

  Everyone in the room looked at him.

  Ever since Ximen Jin took over the affairs of the Ximen family, he had become much calmer. This was the first time the elders in the family had seen such a rash and panicked appearance.

  Ximen Jin acted like he could not hear what the elders were saying to the Ye family, as he walked out with his mind buzzing.

  At the door, he instructed his confidant to prepare the helicopter immediately.

  He was going to the snowy mountain.

  When the confidant found out that Ximen Jin was going to the place where the avalanche happened, he wanted to dissuade him, but before he could say anything, he was stopped by a sharp gaze from Ximen Jin. “Immediately. Prepare for it immediately!”


  His confidant immediately called.

  Ximen Jin took the elevator to the top floor of the hotel. While waiting for the helicopter to arrive, he took out a cigarette and lighter from his pocket.

  He exhaled mouthful after mouthful of smoke.

  The fingers holding the cigarette were still trembling slightly.

  Nothing would happen! Nothing would happen!

  Ximen Jin closed his red eyes, feeling restless and uneasy!

  Soon, the helicopter landed on the roof.

  It would take about three hours to get to Eagle Stone Snow Mountain.

  After Ximen Jin got on the helicopter, he clenched his hands into fists and placed them on his knees.

  In just a few hours, his body was tense and his blood seemed to stop flowing.

  There was a road block along the way up the mountain. After the helicopter landed, Ximen Jin boarded a rescue vehicle.

  At the foot of the mountain, many mountain climbers who had been rescued were resting in their tents, all of them still in shock.

  Ximen Jin did not see Long Mei. He grabbed the collar of a rescue team member and asked with a cold expression, “Where’s Long Mei? Did you find Long Mei?”


  “Not yet.”


  Ximen Jin was about to say something when he suddenly heard Devin shouting, “Let me go up. Let me go up and find Mei’er!”


  Ximen Jin took a few steps forward and saw that Devin, who had a head injury, was like a lion with a wild mane, wanting to rush up the snow mountain. Ximen Jin strode up to him. “You went up the snow mountain with Long Mei. Why did you come down and she didn’t?”


  Devin looked at Ximen Jin with red eyes, not in the mood to ask why he was here. She said hurriedly, “My stamina is not as good as Mei’er’s. She climbed faster and I was behind her. Who knew that there would be an avalanche…”


  Ximen Jin felt even more restless and asked coldly, “Which route were you on?”


  Devin pointed.

  Ximen Jin did not say anything else and took the chance when the rescue team was blocking Devin to rush forward.

  “Hey, Sir, it’s dangerous. You can’t go up!”


  “Come down quickly!”


  Ximen Jin ignored him.

  If he could not find Long Mei for a long time, she would lose her life in such bad weather even if she was still alive now.

  The sky had turned completely dark. She would definitely be terrified and helpless when she was alone and helpless.

  Ximen Jin and Long Mei had many hobbies in common. Before taking over the Ximen family, Ximen Jin was also a person who liked to explore the outdoors.

  He was not unfamiliar with the Eagle Stone Snow Mountain.

  He had once climbed up alone. After he got together with Long Mei, he had mentioned this place to her. They had also agreed to come here when they had time.

  Ximen Jin did not think that he would come here again in this way.

  All kinds of emotions surged in his heart.

  But he was more afraid that he would never see that woman again!

  He respected her wishes and did not appear in front of her anymore because he wanted her to live happily.

  “Long Mei…”


  Ximen Jin shouted loudly.

  The vast white snow, the bone-chilling wind, the heavy breath, and the burnt mood… made him feel like he was walking on a steel wire.

  “Long Mei!”


  Ximen Jin shouted with every step he took.

  After shouting for a long time, his voice became hoarse.

  “Long Mei!”


  He called her again. When he thought that there was no response, a weak voice sounded. “Here.”


  Ximen Jin quickly followed the direction of her reply.

  Long Mei was in an inconspicuous rock cave. The small cave could only accommodate Long Mei alone.

  Ximen Jin walked over quickly.

  Pushing aside the layer of white snow on Long Mei’s head, Ximen Jin’s heart almost split open when he saw her curled up inside with injuries all over her body!

  Long Mei’s lips were already slightly purple. She had a high fever and when she saw a tall figure walking towards her, she thought it was Devin.

  “Devin, I’m here.”


  Ximen Jin did not tell her that she had called him by the wrong name. He took off his winter jacket and wrapped it around her. Then, he sent a message to his confidant at the foot of the mountain.

  He hugged Long Mei’s trembling body and leaned over to kiss her cold eyelashes. “Mei’er, don’t be afraid. It’s alright.”


  The moment Ximen Jin finished speaking, there was a loud sound.

  Long Mei’s eyelashes fluttered and she grabbed Ximen Jin’s hand. “Devin, quick, come in.”


  “Mei’er, close your eyes.” Ximen Jin held Long Mei tightly with one hand and a sharp stone under the rock with the other.

  Boom!

  The sound of snow falling from above was ear-splitting. The rocks above them were trembling.

  The snow above them soon buried them in the snow.

  …


  Long Mei heard the sound of an avalanche. It was loud and terrifying.

  Someone was holding her hand tightly, not letting go even at the most dangerous moment.

  In the snow, she felt a trace of warmth.

  Their hands were tightly clasped together.

  “Devin…”


  Long Mei opened her eyes and saw the white ceiling and white walls. She blinked and could smell disinfectant.

  She was in the hospital.

  “Mei’er, you’re awake?”


  A gentle voice trailed from beside her. Long Mei shifted her eyes and saw Xiao Ying standing by the bed. She said hoarsely, “Sister-in-law.”


  “Mei’er, don’t move first. I’ll call the doctor over.”


  “Sister-in-law, how’s Devin?”


  “He’s alright. Don’t worry.”


  Long Mei hummed softly.

  Xiao Ying did not know that Ximen Jin was the one who saved Long Mei. When she and Long Ming found out about the news and went to Eagle Stone Mountain, Long Mei had already been sent to the hospital.

  Like Long Mei, Xiao Ying thought that Devin had saved her.

  Long Mei stayed in the hospital for a few days. After her condition improved slightly, she went to Devin’s ward.

  Devin’s head was injured and he had been unconscious for a few days after the surgery before he woke up.

  Seeing Long Mei coming over, Devin wanted to sit up from the bed, but Long Mei held his shoulders. “Don’t move.”


  Devin looked at Long Mei, who had changed a lot from before. He was slightly stunned.

  “Devin, thank you for saving me.” Long Mei looked at Devin gently. “I’ve already thought about it. After you’re discharged, we’ll officially become a couple.”
