The president tried to trick me Chapter 2238

An Zijin recognized Tu Ming's strong desire to return. She also understood that while she might evade capture for a time, permanent escape was unlikely.

Her family intended to arrange an engagement for her. Fortunately, she was still too young, and marriage could only occur upon reaching the legal age.

This continuous fleeing wasn't a sustainable solution…

After a period of contemplation, she finally turned to Yan Yuhan, who was beside her, and relented. "We'll return when he can speak," she declared.

"Really?!" Tu Ming's visage brightened considerably, his excitement almost leading him to dance.

An Zijin affirmed with a nod, appearing to have finally settled on her decision.

Tu Ming's demeanor towards Yan Yuhan shifted dramatically; he began serving him soup and food, actively encouraging him to eat more, believing faster recovery depended on better nourishment!

Ji Weizhong couldn't resist remarking, "Your loyalty shifts rather quickly!"

"Naturally! My greatest talent lies in recognizing favorable circumstances!" Tu Ming stated, not with false modesty, but with evident pride.

His declaration prompted laughter from everyone at the table.

Yan Yuhan took his seat. Even in silence, he could perceive their shared joy and simple contentment.

This tranquil existence was a stark contrast to his own world.

It seemed, he mused, that taking a temporary respite to experience this was not entirely unwelcome.

Following their meal, the group relocated chairs to the courtyard. Seated together, they gazed at the stars, occasionally engaging in conversation, with Tu Ming's jests frequently bringing the discussions to a humorous close.

Later, they all retired for the night.

In the latter half of the night, two helicopters abruptly began circling above the tranquil mountain.

Officers adorned in specialized uniforms descended, silently encircling the entire dormitory complex.

Yan Yuhan, who had remained awake, stirred upon hearing the commotion outside and proactively exited his room.

The arriving rescue personnel immediately identified him. "Young Master, we have arrived."

"Let's depart," Yan Yuhan responded. He was capable of speaking now, though his voice was exceedingly hoarse, making articulation a considerable effort.

"Yes, Young Master."

Under the cover of night, the contingent swiftly made their egress.

As the helicopters ascended back into the nocturnal sky, Yan Yuhan cast a prolonged, contemplative glance at the diminishing dormitory below, a subtle trace of wistfulness lingering in his dark eyes.

He acknowledged that remaining for a few more days, allowing his body to heal, would have been beneficial.

However, he bore numerous responsibilities and obligations. His absence, he feared, would be difficult to explain to his parents.

As for his benefactor, the one who had saved his life…

If destiny decreed it, they would undoubtedly meet again.

The following day, nearing noon, the disappearance of Yan Yuhan was discovered.

Having stayed up late the previous night, everyone indulged in a more prolonged sleep that morning.

An Zijin, particularly concerned about Yan Yuhan's injuries, had opted not to rouse him early, believing extra rest would be advantageous.

It wasn't until approaching lunchtime that she ascended to the attic, only to find Yan Yuhan had departed.

His quilt was meticulously folded, and the clothes he had worn were neatly arranged on the bedside table.

In addition to these items, a substantial sum of cash lay upon the bed.

After a swift estimation, the amount approximated 200,000 yuan.

Upon witnessing the money, Tu Ming whistled in surprise. "It appears that young fellow is indeed someone significant! In such a remote mountain, reaching the outside world requires hours of driving. The individuals who arrived to retrieve him managed such a stealthy operation!"

"It was likely helicopters," Ji Weizhong interjected, recalling a faint, similar sound from the previous night amidst his daze.

"Wow, a helicopter picked him up? That's impressive. " Tu Ming gave an appreciative thumbs-up, then gestured towards the pile of cash. "He's a young man who knows how to show gratitude!"
