Chapter 46 Rollover
The night in the mountains was ethereal and quiet, with countless stars twinkling in the sky, and moonlight spreading out to illuminate the entire dark night.

The moving oxcart made the sound of its wheels squeezing through the gravel.

The three men sitting in the back of the truck used the gentle evening breeze to dispel the smell of alcohol from their bodies.

The man and woman sitting opposite each other had flushed faces like peach blossoms, bathed in the soft, silvery moonlight, adding to their ethereal beauty.

Looking at it this way, the two of them are really a perfect match! Who knows how ridiculously beautiful their future children will be!
As Fu Jiaming lay half-reclined on the wooden planks of the truck bed, he was once again struck by the beauty of the two men, and a strange thought began to surface in his mind.

He shook his head with amusement, chuckling to himself as he laughed foolishly.

"Fu Xiaosi, are you alright?"

"Yan Xiaoqi, your Master Fu is perfectly fine!"

Well, he really is drunk. He's got that reputation for being able to drink a whole cup after just one drop.

Yan Bei turned his head and unexpectedly met her eyes, which were as bright as stars. His heart skipped a beat, but then returned to normal.

With a somewhat strange and puzzled look, Yan Bei touched his heart and hesitated for a while before finally asking, "Are you alright?"

She only took a small sip of rice wine. Apart from a burning sensation in her throat, she didn't feel uncomfortable anywhere. Although she was surprised by his sudden concern, Su Ning replied softly that she was fine.

"Yan Bei, Fu Jiaming's good friend."

"Suning".

An awkward silence crept in, unsure how to proceed. Yan Bei tactically cleared his throat and subtly kicked the person still grinning foolishly.

Fu Jiaming, who had been inexplicably struck, looked up at Su Ning with a wronged expression, repeatedly muttering indistinct words, "Ningbao...bao...Ningbao..."

"What...is he saying?"

"He probably doesn't even know it himself. He's drunk and talking nonsense."

Yan Bei, who had heard clearly, glossed over it in such an ambiguous way, his expression deepening and the force of his footwork increasing by several degrees.

"嘤~"

Fu Jiaming, now with a lisp, could only continue to complain with his eyes: Ning Baogai, she kicked me, kicked me, didn't you see?!

Seeing that she still looked confused, Fu Jiaming suddenly stood up and quickly grabbed her wrist.

Upon realizing it was too late to dodge, Su Ning's mind went blank with a bang, leaving only the images flashing before her eyes—

As night deepened, Fu Jiaming and Yan Bei sat on the oxcart, chatting and laughing.

The person driving the carriage ahead suddenly spoke up, "What is that?"

Only when they stopped the oxcart under the moonlight could they see clearly that lying casually in the middle of the road was a small, black stray dog.

Strangely, no matter how the driver tried to urge it on, it lay still and didn't move, as if it was deliberately trying to prevent the oxcart from passing.

Fu Jiaming thought the little guy was quite pleasing to the eye, so he jumped over the truck bed, stepped forward, grabbed its neck, and brought it into the truck despite the dog's constant barking and howling.

As the oxcart continued its journey, just as it rounded a bend in the mountain road, a huge boulder suddenly tumbled down from above without warning.

Yan Bei's figure drew closer and closer to Fu Jiaming's astonished eyes, until he and his dog were violently pushed off the car and rolled several meters.

The huge boulders crashed down one after another before I suddenly realized what had happened.

"Yan Qi... Yan Qi!"

Fu Jiaming's eyes were bloodshot, like a mad lion, and his sharp, piercing howls echoed throughout the mountains.

"Whoo~"

"Su Su... Ning... Ning Baogai, look at this!"

Some were still too horrified by the bloody scene to recover, when a soft, fleshy lump was shoved into their hands.

Suning subconsciously lowered its head. It was entirely black except for a tuft of white fur on one of its paws, resembling a white cloud.

Little black dog!

"Woof woof woof~"

The hairs on the back of his head immediately stood up as if he had been electrocuted. "Stop! Stop the car! Stop the car now!"

The frantic, terrified screams around him made Su Jianmin unconsciously tighten the reins, trying to stop the ox.

Whether startled or from exerting too much force, the big yellow ox bellowed, its two front hooves leaped high, its head tilted to the side, and it plunged headfirst into the ravine beside it.

"I rely on!"

Startled awake by the scene, Fu Jiaming only had time to grab Su Jianmin by the back of his collar, who was closest to him.

Before the car overturned into the ditch, he used all his strength to pull the person to the other side and roll them over.

"Watch out!" "Be careful!"

Yan Bei, who also noticed something was wrong, immediately reached out and firmly grasped Su Ning's hand, who was standing and about to tip over from the back of the truck bed due to inertia. In the instant he was pulled over from the back of the truck bed, he instinctively put one arm around her waist and used the other to protect the back of her head, using his own body as a cushion.

After rolling several times, it finally stopped. Ignoring the scrapes on his body, Yan Bei quickly helped the person up, but before he could make any further moves, she pushed him up forcefully.

Yes, great!

It wasn't a collision, nor was it a tackle.

A clear cracking sound came from my chest; it was the muffled groan of my ribs.

"boom--"

The moment the rolling rock hit the ground, it created a deep crater on the muddy road, and fragments of rock scattered in all directions.

"Yan Qi! Su Ning!"

Having just climbed out of the ditch with his face covered in mud and half his body sticking out, Fu Jiaming saw this dangerous scene. He used both hands and feet to climb over the embankment and ran towards the two as fast as he could.

Even though the pain in his ankles and knees was so intense that his face was contorted, he didn't care at all.

Su Ning, who had shoved his head into the rock wall, saw countless golden stars flying before his eyes, and a large bump swelled up on his fair and full forehead.

One can imagine how much force she used in her panic.

She shook her head slightly, braced her hands against the rock wall, and waited until the dizziness subsided before looking down at the person who had fallen between her and the rock wall.

"How are you? Are you still alive?"

"Thank you for your concern. I can still breathe. That's good."

Aside from two broken ribs…

Yan Bei stared at her perfectly sculpted jawline with a complex expression: How could such a slender body unleash such immense power?
"you…"

Before she could finish speaking, Yan Bei's dark brown pupils suddenly dilated, and his hands moved faster than his brain, catching her as she fell.

Only the spot on her cheek that still felt warm seemed to have been scalded by boiling water, turning red all the way down to her ears and even her neck.

"Yan Qi! Su Ning! How are you?"

"Cough~ I'm fine, but Su Ning... she's fainted."

His voice sounded a little hoarse, and he seemed to be struggling to speak, his words coming out in fits and starts.

Fu Jiaming anxiously crouched down, "Are you hurt? Where are you hurt? How did Su Ning faint? Was she hit by something?"

My mind was a complete mess, and my reactions were much slower until this moment when I suddenly came to my senses.

Yan Bei carefully pulled back the arms that had been supporting her body straight up from under her armpits, and gently placed his clenched fists on her back with his fingers spread.

When his subordinates felt the large amount of warm, viscous liquid, their expressions changed drastically. "How's the oxcart? Can it still run?"

"The cow fell and broke its neck, so it can't run away. What? Is Su Ning... badly injured?"

"What do we do? What do we do now?!"

In his anxiety, Fu Jiaming grabbed a handful of his hair and looked at the winding mountain road that stretched endlessly before him.

He pounded his leg, which was trembling slightly from the pain, and gritted his teeth. "I'll run back and get someone to help!"

"I go!"

Having arrived beside them at some unknown time, Su Jianmin, his face pale and still shaken, swallowed hard and gripped the flashlight tightly.

"I know this road well. I only injured my arm and I can run fast. The nearest large group can take a shortcut and it won't take long!"

"Wait for me, I'll be back with men soon!"

After saying that, Su Jianmin turned on his flashlight and ran off towards the path beside the mountain road. He quickly disappeared from sight, leaving only a beam of light flickering in the forest.

"What are you staring at, Fu Xiaosi? Help me!"

"Ah, oh, okay, good."

"Be careful of her back, don't bump into her."

Fu Jiaming nodded and carefully reached out to take the person, slowly moving them out of Yan Bei's embrace.

Avoiding the shadows of the rocks and trees, her injuries could only be seen clearly through the moonlight.

Her entire back was covered in rock fragments, a bloody mess, and her clothes were stained black and red.

He had just climbed onto the ditch and could see it clearly when the rocks rolled down; if Su Ning hadn't tackled him in time…

He even used his back to block most of the rubble...

"Yan Qi, Yan Qi, you must remember that your life and your face were saved by Su Ning!"
