Leading the way, Su Ci announced, “Our fishing boat is right nearby!”
Su Ting and Gu Dai hastened their steps, only to be ambushed by several footsteps charging from behind.
Gu Dai swiftly kicked an attacker who pounced on them, while Su Ting grabbed another’s wrist, the one wielding a dagger aiming for him, and with a swift motion, wrested the dagger away and plunged it back into the man’s body.
Suddenly, Gu Dai felt the ship shake violently, a sensation all too familiar, reminding her of three years prior when a bomb beneath the ship was about to detonate, signaling impending doom with such tremors.
Her premonition was quickly confirmed.
The man toppled on the ground, coughing incessantly, revealed, “There’s already a bomb planted on the ship. You won’t be able to escape.”
Despite the considerable size of the ship, escape was conceivable if they exerted their utmost effort. However, the dire situation was exacerbated by the encirclement of men in suits, blocking all possible exits.
“Even without falling for your traps, we’re prepared to fight to the death to prevent your escape. And since we’re facing death, dragging you down with us is no loss to us at all!” they declared.

Su Ci promptly intervened, “You two go, I’ll stay behind.”
Su Ting, frowning, refused, “Big brother, you can’t handle so many by yourself. Take Daidai and leave now, or it’ll be too late for us all!”
As his words settled, he faced the oncoming assailants.
Tears welled up in Gu Dai’s eyes as she declared, “If we’re to leave, we leave together. If not, then I’ll stay with you!”
Stepping forward to join Su Ting, her resolve was evident.
Witnessing this, Su Ci, with a heavy heart, quickly approached and knocked Gu Dai unconscious, “I’ll take Daidai first to safety. You follow quickly!”
Su Ting, with a light chuckle, responded, “Alright, hurry!”
Watching Su Ci carry Gu Dai away, Su Ting breathed a sigh of relief, his smile genuine and warm.
As long as Daidai is safe…
No sooner had Su Ci placed Gu Dai in the fishing boat than a harsh explosion sounded, lighting up half the sky in flames.
Pain gripped Su Ci’s heart as he gazed towards the ship, hastily ordering his men to commence rescue operations.
Gu Dai, unconscious, furrowed her brows in distress.
On the shore, Song Ling closed her eyes upon witnessing the scene, her complexion turning pale.
Zhao Xuan urgently suggested, “President Song, such scenes could trigger your PTSD. Lettake you home.”
Song Ling nodded in agreement, “Let’s go.”
As he turned to leave, he caught a glimpse of Su Ci carrying a woman into a car.
Song Ling couldn’t see the woman’s face, nor did he care who she was. What caught his attention was the absence of Su Ting, suggesting he might have been lost to the explosion.
The thought of Su Ting’s demise brought him an unexpected joy, “There’s work to be attended to at the company. Let’s go. And keep an eye on this place. Informof any developments.”
Zhao Xuan promptly agreed, “Certainly, President Song.”

Song Ling, in high spirits, returned to the company and worked with exceptional efficiency.
Zhao Xuan, after knocking, entered quietly and reported in a low voice, “President Song, for sunknown reason, the ship exploded, resulting in numerous casualties. And I’ve heard…”
He paused for a moment, then whispered, “Efforts are being made to locate Su Ting. He might have been on that ship.”
Song Ling’s smile broadened, “You’ve done well lately. Your bonus this month will be doubled.”
Zhao Xuan, observing a side of Song Ling he found unfamiliar, felt increasingly uneasy.
He knew the raise wasn’t for his work performance but rather for the news of Su Ting’s death, presenting a version of Song Ling he hadn’t seen before…
Gu Dai’s eyelashes fluttered, and she sat up abruptly, calling out, “Su Ting!”
Glancing around, she realized she was in her room. Stepping out, she sensed the heavy atmosphere at home.
Feeling something was amiss, her heart sinking, she asked in a hoarse voice, “Where’s Su Ting?”
Meng Zhi opened his mouth but, meeting Gu Dai’s reddened eyes, looked away and said, “We’re searching for him..”
