Chapter 1102: Heart Pounding

Although Xia Yanran stayed in a hotel, the conditions were worse than ordinary hostels in China.

The sound insulation effect is not good, you can hear clearly in the corridor and the next room as long as the sound is louder.

Xia Yanran didn't sleep well at night, fearing that someone would break into her room in the middle of the night.

When the genius dawned, she woke up, put on local clothes, painted her face black, and covered her face with a veil.

After getting on a dilapidated bus, Xia Yanran went to the suburbs where Xiao Yi was in a turbulent situation.

The roads in the suburbs were quite difficult, and Xia Yanran almost vomited everything she ate in the morning.

When she came here, she checked the situation here online. But the reality was harder than she imagined.

The car was driving very slowly, and Xia Yanran was on tenterhooks all the way. I was afraid that the car would break down halfway.

Both sides of the road are overgrown with weeds, the houses are in ruins, and the traces of the war are still obvious.

The car drove for more than two hours and only covered half of the way.

Xia Yanran's stomach was churning, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Just as she was leaning against the car window and falling asleep, the car made a clang and stopped.

Several black men with guns got into the car.

Xia Yanran saw several passengers sitting in the car taking the initiative to take out their luggage.

Xia Yanran knew that the security here was not good, and the men had guns in their hands, so she took out her luggage bag like other passengers.

The black men with guns collected their luggage bags one by one.

One of the black men stopped in front of Xia Yanran and looked her up and down.

Xia Yanran's lips pursed tightly under her veil, her fingers curled up unconsciously, and she lowered her eyes, not looking at the man.

The man suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled open Xia Yanran's veil.

Xia Yanran's heart seemed to stop beating at that moment.

But fortunately, the man saw that she was dark-skinned and unremarkable, so he didn't stay much and left with the gun in his hand.

The bus restarts.

Xia Yanran's back and palms were covered in sweat.

This place was more dangerous and terrifying than she imagined!

After another two long hours, Xia Yanran arrived at her destination near noon.

The sun hangs in the sky, burning the human body like a fireball.

Xia Yanran fanned herself with her hand, but her luggage was robbed. Fortunately, she put the important items in her clothes.

Taking out her mobile phone, she found Tang Chao's number and sent a message.

The signal in this damn place is very poor. After sending the message, it shows no signal.

Xia Yanran found a big rock and sat down. She only hopes that Tang Chao can see the message, otherwise if she encounters thugs again, she will be finished!

Fortunately, half an hour later, Xia Yanran heard the roar of a motorcycle.

She raised her head and saw a tall figure speeding towards him on a motorcycle. A piece of loess rose up behind him. Under the sunlight, she could not see his appearance clearly.

But from the outline, she could vaguely tell that the Tang Dynasty was coming.

This guy is so different every time he appears.

Tang Chao rode very fast and arrived at Xia Yanran's side in a short while.

When he came to Badal, he was obviously tanned a lot.

He had sunglasses on his face and an engineering hat on his head. He glanced around and his eyes fell on Xia Yanran, "Are you...?"

Xia Yanran looked at his confused expression and couldn't help but smile, and her tense heartstrings relaxed a lot.

To be honest, she was really worried that she would die on the way before seeing Xiao Yi.

Hearing Xia Yanran's laughter, Tang Chao took off his sunglasses and took a closer look at the tightly wrapped woman, "Fuck you, you, you, are you Miss Xia?"

Xia Yanran took off her veil, revealing a dark face, "If it wasn't like this, you probably wouldn't be able to see me today."

Tang Chao quickly got off the motorcycle and patted the back of his head, "Damn, I thought you were joking. Why did you really come here? Are you crazy? The security here is so chaotic. You were not careful. , it will be fatal."

Xia Yanran pointed to her face, "That's why I put on makeup like this."

Tang Chao glanced at Xia Yanran and raised his eyebrows, "Has your luggage been robbed?"

"Well, luckily I hid the important things with me, so I'll be fine."

Looking at Xia Yanran who was quite optimistic, Tang Chao shrugged speechlessly, "For love, you are really not even afraid of death."

Xia Yanran smiled sheepishly.

Tang Chao patted the back seat of the motorcycle and said, "Brother Xiao has gone to the construction site. The signal there is not good. I sent him a message, but I probably won't be able to see it for a while. I'll take you to where we live first."

Xia Yanran nodded.

On the way, Xia Yanran learned from Tang Chao that the city where their construction site was located was called Pingcheng. It used to be one of the most prosperous cities in Badal, but later the war destroyed everything.

When they arrived in Pingcheng, Xia Yanran saw the dilapidated houses on both sides of the road. They either lacked doors or windows or collapsed, creating a dilapidated scene.

Tang Chao drove Xia Yanran to a building where political officials once held office. The building had lost its former splendor and there were signs of damage everywhere.

At the door, Xia Yanran saw several women drying out quilts, and a few little boys without any clothes on.

"We are staying here temporarily. These women have lost their husbands and are here to help with cooking and laundry."

Xia Yanran nodded and greeted several women in English. Xia Yanran followed Tang Chao into the house.

Tang Chao brought Xia Yanran to the eastmost room on the third floor. "Brother Xiao lives here. You must be tired along the way. I'll get some water and food. You can rest and sleep again."

Xia Yanran nodded, "Okay, please."

"No trouble, wait until Brother Xiao comes back and sees you here, I'll tell you how successful it will be."

After Tang Chao left, Xia Yanran looked around the house.

Shabby and dilapidated.

There was only a wooden bed, a table, and a stool with missing legs.

There were cobwebs in the corners, and there was a lot of dust in the room except on the bed.

I think Xiao Yi is usually very busy, and he doesn't like people coming into his house, so the women didn't help him take care of it.

After Tang Chao brought water and food, Xia Yanran washed her face and took a few bites casually.

He took off the sheets and quilt, took Xiao Yi's dirty clothes and went downstairs to wash them.

The women were stunned when they saw Xia Yanran coming down. The woman who followed Tang Chao up there was obviously a dark-skinned woman. Why did she suddenly disappear and turn into a girl with fair and bright skin?

Xia Yanran greeted them with a smile and explained her skin problem.

The women were very enthusiastic. Seeing Xia Yanran holding Xiao Yi's clothes, they realized that she might be Mr. Xiao's girlfriend, and enthusiastically took her to wash the clothes.

The sun is strong here, and by evening all the clothes and quilts are dry.

Xia Yanran spread the bed again and lay on it, her heart pounding. Xiao Yi hadn't come back yet. She didn't know how he would feel when he came back and saw her coming.
