Chapter 149: Saved
Flowery Shirt only wanted to bring Su Yan back and discuss some terms with the Yun family. He did not expect this to happen. Su Yan’s fall from the cliff was beyond the Flowery Shirt’s expectations. In fact, because he was worried that the Yun family would take revenge on him, he even pulled his men and left quickly.
Assistant Liu was left on the cliff with bloodshot eyes.

Su Yan originally thought that she would fall into the forest after stepping on air, but she did not expect that when she fell, she would be hung up by a few tree branches and stopped in her tracks.
Su Yan struggled for a moment, but in the end, she was sure that the tree branch hung on her very firmly. No matter how she swayed left or right, she could not shake her position. Pausing for a moment, Su Yan took out her phone from her pocket. In the end, she saw that the dialing interface was limited to emergency numbers.
The emergency number was good. Su Yan’s eyes lit up, and she immediately dialed 110. Before the call connected, the phone automatically shut down because there was no battery.
Su Yan: “…Damn, it can’t be that simple, right?”
Helpless, Su Yan could only put away her phone and slowly wriggle on her own. She slowly untied the branches that were scraping her clothes and jumped from the tree to the ground.
The feeling of stepping on solid ground was too wonderful. Su Yan could not help but snort. Luckily, the place where Su Yan fell was closer to the edge of the cliff, so Su Yan could still see the steep cliff. However, she could not see any higher.
The forest was too dense, blocking Su Yan’s vision.
Su Yan sighed. Although she knew that both Assistant Liu and Grandpa would send people to save her, she was hungry and thirsty. She really could not make up her mind to wait here or walk outside to see if she could find a way out.
After standing on the spot for a while and being harassed by a group of mosquitoes, Su Yan finally decided that it was better to rely on herself than on others. It was better for her to leave first.
So Su Yan walked along the cliff wall. After a few steps, she saw many people jumping down.
“You…” Su Yan was on guard. She wasn’t sure if these people were friends or enemies.
“Miss Yun?” The leader nodded at Su Yan. “President Shi arranged for us to be by your side. Because President Shi instructed us not to appear unless it was absolutely necessary, we did not appear earlier. Please forgive us, Miss Yun.”
As if afraid that Su Yan would not believe him, he took out another phone and passed it to Su Yan. “President Shi, we’ve met Miss Yun.”
Su Yan took the phone and stared blankly at the call interface. Shi Qing’s voice came from the other end. “Xixi, are you alright? Sorry, I can’t rush back now.”
Upon hearing that the voice was indeed Shi Qing, the fear in Su Yan’s heart surged. She whispered, “Ah Qing…”
Even if she could not utter another word, the choking in her voice made Shi Qing’s broke his heart.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. It’s all my fault. I didn’t give better instructions.”
Before Shi Qing could finish his sentence, Su Yan’s tears started streaming down her face. She was after all a young lady who had just experienced life and death.
Shi Qing sighed softly. “Do you want me to go back now? I’ll always worry about you when I’m not by your side.”
When she heard this, Su Yan laughed and said angrily, “How old are you already? Why are you still talking like a child? What would happen to your big family business if you came back? With so many people relying on the Shi family, what would you do with them?” Towards the end, Su Yan actually burst out laughing and said, “Alright, alright, stop fooling around. I’m not afraid anymore.”
Even though Su Yan said so, Shi Qing was still worried. He was worried that if something happened in the future and he was not by Su Yan’s side, what would happen to Su Yan? It is a troubled time now. How could he leave Su Yan alone outside?
Listening to the increasingly unstable breathing, Su Yan smiled and said, “Actually, it’s fine. At most, I’ll bring more people with me when I go out in the future. Today was an accident, and I was too careless. I didn’t expect those people to be so bold, daring to do such a thing in broad daylight. I definitely won’t do it again in the future. Don’t worry.”
As she spoke, she caught up with the people that Shi Qing had sent over. “When did you send someone to stay by my side? Why didn’t you tell me?”
Shi Qing’s breathing paused for a moment before he said in a low voice, “I didn’t mean to hide it from you. I was just worried about you. I was afraid that you wouldn’t want to be monitored by others. I was just… just worried about you.”
Listening to the other party’s incoherent explanation, Su Yan instantly smiled again. Her eyes curved into crescents. Under the sunlight that was not considered bright in the forest, she looked even more carefree. “Alright, I’m not blaming you. I’m just curious.”
After confirming that Su Yan had no intention of getting angry, Shi Qing heaved a sigh of relief. “I sent someone to stay by your side not long after we met.. Back then, although the situation in City A was not complicated, I was really worried about you, so I could only plant more people by your side to ensure your safety.”
