Chapter 395: 395: Can You Give Me A Hand?

“…”

Ning Yanan’s eyes moved a little, but the rest of her remained still.

Staring fixedly at the gun Dan Hanjie pressed against her forehead, his hoarse voice carried the bone-chilling cold as he articulated each word with deadly precision. “Three, two… ”

Jiang Jinchen couldn’t bear to look. He closed his eyes tightly.

When the final number was called, there was no sound of a gunshot.

Several seconds passed before a tension-filled Jiang Jinchen opened his eyes.

Before him, Dan Hanjie maintained his stoic, towering pose in front of Ning Yanan, his somber face devoid of expression, eyes deep and dark…

The gun had been thrown aside.

“Most of Extreme Love Island is undeveloped and can’t be left unless by helicopter. Even if she wants to leave, she needs someone to escort her out. If she goes to the wrong place, the consequences are unthinkable.”

Dan Hanjie’s voice paused, his gaze turned gloomy and deep as it fell onto Ning Yanan. Each word that followed seemed to be squeezed through gritted teeth. “Consider it my begging you, tell me where is she?”

“…”

Ning Yanan’s eyes widened in fear, her face paler than the moment Dan Hanjie pointed a gun at her.

She moved her finger, pointing in a certain direction.

It took a while before she found her voice again, “Xuan didn’t tell me where she was going, she just said she was leaving for a while, and she went that way…”

At her words, Dan Hanjie quickly turned and rushed in the direction Ning Yanan had pointed out.

“Immediately notify everyone on the island to begin a search centered here and spread out. Not a single area should be missed! ” Jiang Jinchen crawled up from the ground and ordered solemnly.

Watching the bodyguards scatter to search, he dusted off the sand on his body and walked to Ning Yanan.

“Hey, never thought you’d be so loyal, ready to die to keep secrets for a sister. If you had lost your bet just now, that bullet would have been drilled into your forehead — bang!”

Jiang Jinchen imitated the action of firing a gun, watching Ning Yanan’s wide eyes.

“…”

If she admitted to being terrified into stupidity and unable to react, Xuan would surely laugh at her.

“Get up already. If something were to happen to Qin Youxuan, I don’t think your life will be guaranteed.” Jiang Jinchen glanced at her before he turned and walked away.

Ning Yanan, after being stunned for a few seconds, quickly got up from the ground.

Her legs gave way, and she reached out to grasp Jiang Jinchen’s arm, “I’m feeling weak. Can you support me?”

“…”

Jiang Jinchen glanced at the hand gripping his arm, then looked up at Ning Yanan’s white face, and paused.

He grabbed her hand and hoisted her onto his shoulder, then set off.

–

Nightfall was approaching.

The last ray of sunlight disappeared at the horizon. The sky turned gloomy.

The sea breeze wailed, stirring a dreadful chill.

“Mr. Jie, the weather forecast predicts a heavy rainstorm tonight. If we don’t leave now, it might be dangerous.” Yao, who was walking by Dan Hanjie’s side, reminded him with a solemn expression.

“Order everyone to find her. If they can’t find her, see if they dare to return!” Dan Hanjie grabbed the front of Yao’s shirt and growled menacingly.

His resolute face bore only coldness.

“Yes…”

Yao managed to respond with difficulty.

He instructed his men to quickly search in the direction indicated by Ning Yanan.

Not long after, it began to rain.

A violent downpour started pouring suddenly.

Most of the island comprised mountainous terrain, which the rain left slippery and obliterated any traces of passage. The undeveloped areas were extremely difficult to traverse.

“Mr. Jie, this area is uninhabited. It’s too dangerous to go in.”

“Out of my way!”
