Sweet Wife in My Arms

Chapter 640: Found It

If the flood came, there would be nothing left. Everything would be over.

If Lu Yi lost his mother, and Lei Qingyi lost his mother and wife, then Little Lei, who was still young, would be a child without his mother and grandmother too.

She pressed her pale lips tightly together while biting her inner lips. The force of her biting caused the coppery tang of blood to wash over her taste buds, drilling straight into her nerves.

“Yiyi, I have said it before, no matter what, I’ll ensure your safety in this life. I thought that I could do it, but I forgot to inform you. I am such a damn fellow!”

“Sorry Mom, we were wrong. Lu Yi and I have been busy recently, and neglected you. So please give me one more chance, please give us another chance.”

“Please be far from there, they must be far from there.”

“Please, I beg you all...”

She floored the gas pedal. The car cut through the thick curtain of rain with flying speed, causing puddles to splash everywhere in the process.

The water fell flat on the ground, but it was splashed again immediately.

A few ripples, a deep hole, and some mudwater.

No one knew whose legs had stepped over it. In the next moment, their shoes became wet. As they hurried along, the rain continued to fall.

Another roadblock, and Yan Huan found yet another route. Her heart almost stopped at that moment. After reaching this far, when she saw the Sea River rolling from time to time in front of her, she seemed to be relieved, but beads of cold sweat were still rolling down on her forehead.

With a screech, the car stopped suddenly. The road in front was off limits. The cars behind were blocking her retreat. Even if they wanted to turn around, it would not be an easy matter.

She opened the car door, and got out without an umbrella. As she exited the car, the rain fell on her body heavily. Within seconds, her clothes were already soaked. Even her hair was sticking on her face, as rainwater continued to drip from them.

Suddenly, she tripped over a stone, and lost her balance. Her body lurched forward, and fell on the ground. Mud and soil got onto her clothing, making her seem like someone who crawled out from the mud. Her palms were also burning with pain. She clenched her hands tightly, then crawled up from the ground and continued to run forward.

She kept running as the rain pelted her continuously. She was fully soaked, the rainwater on her face rolling down her chin and down to her neck.

Sometimes, the rain blurred what was in front of her. The wind and the rain filled her mouth from time to time. As she breathed, she tasted the bitterness of the rain, which carried with it the taste of mud, and the salt of seawater, as well as the taste of sand.

She was tired, her hands and legs were in pain. She was also feeling cold, but she could not stop, and she was too afraid to stop.

For now, she only wished that they were still there, and that they had not run somewhere else. Otherwise, even deities would not able to save them.

She lifted up her arm with great effort and rubbed her face. The water of the Sea River was before her eyes. Lu Yi and her came here not long ago, when the Sea River was still tranquil and beautiful. But in a few days, it had already become like this. It was now mad, out of control, and cruel.

Every second and every minute, the river seemed to be smashing away on the railings along the river bank, and toward the city. On the railings were obvious indicators that signalled that they had been reinforced. Yan Huan knew that Lu Yi was the one behind it. In order to reinforce those railings once again, he had to go through a lot of paperwork and research without rest and sleep. Finally, he discovered that back when railings were manufactured, one of the companies were suspected to have cut corners when they made the railings. After multiple investigations and extensive gathering of evidence, the railings were finally allowed to be reinforced.

This time, if not for the reinforced railing, then the water might have broken through long ago. It could not have sustained for this long.

Yan Huan still remembered that in her past life, when the flood had risen insanely, the place was a total mess.

Maybe this was fate, maybe there was an almighty being who controlled all. Lei Qingyi, Lu Yi, and herself did everything they could to stop the flood. They evacuated the citizens and helped others. But in the end, they were actually saving their families.

If this was true, then they truly deserved what they paid for. No matter how difficult and tiring it was, there was nothing that could compare with seeing your family safe and sound. It would make you feel gratified, relieved, excited and touched.

She rubbed her face with her sleeves, but she still could not see the way in front of her clearly. The rain was dripping down from her hair, trickling down her cheek to her chin, and then to her neck. As she ran forward, the wind rushed into her clothing, carrying with it the chill of the rain, and fear. Her heart seemed to be cold too, so cold that her limbs were numb, painful and aching.

Please be safe, please be safe.

In fact, she did not know where they were. She was just following her own feelings as she walked, ran and searched. Yi Ling did not tell her where she was, or where she might be.

At a distance, she saw three mad women in front. They were wearing colorful raincoats, holding hands, and shouting insanely.

But Yan Huan was crying.

“Hey, that’s...”

Yi Ling squinted her eyes, and wiped away the rainwater in her eyes. The moment when she saw the features of the approaching woman, who looked like a drowned rat, she was startled.

She looked like Yan Huan.

Yan Huan looked really ugly now. But even then, she was able to identify her. They were sisters who grew up together, the closest sisters with the strongest of bonds. So, even though she became a little uglier, and messier, Yi Ling could still identify her. Well, other than that, when Yan Huan took on stunt double roles formerly, she did many jobs where she had to jump into pools, lakes, or seas. This was exactly what she looked like whenever she climbed out of the water.

“Huanhuan, Huanhuan...” Yi Ling waved at her happily. She thought that Yan Huan was too excited and forgot to wear a raincoat. How marvelous was this, some may never experience this in their entire life.

Yan Huan touched her trembling lips gently, and suddenly, she smiled. Surprisingly, at this moment, tears rolled down from her eyes.

She found them, she had finally found them.
