CHAPTER 1499: CHAPTER 1500 SAVING LIVES (SEEKING REWARDS!)

Under Wei Yingyue’s guidance, you arrived in front of the bus, gently lifted Liang Xinyue, and finally laid her flat on the back row of the Golden Dragon Bus. At this moment, Wei Yingyue took out a suitcase from above her seat and gently covered Liang Xinyue with a blanket.

Seeing the peacefully sleeping Liang Xinyue, you finally breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Wei Yingyue: "Thank you."

Your tone was a bit flat, but within that calmness, there was a hint of sincerity.

With her slender jade fingers, Wei Yingyue gently brushed aside Liang Xinyue’s somewhat messy hair. Her warm palm softly caressed her delicate cheek; she looked at you and asked, "Are you planning to take her back?"

You nodded and then sat down on a chair nearby.

"In the future, could you let me take care of her?"

"Hm?" Wei Yingyue’s words surprised you a bit, as Liang Xinyue had no relation to her.

Wei Yingyue looked down at Liang Xinyue’s pretty face and smiled slightly: "I always wished for a sister since I was young, and compared to you as a single man, I think I can take better care of her, don’t you think?"

You pondered for a moment and nodded: "That’s true."

In fact, you also had your concerns. No matter what your identity was, it seemed you couldn’t take better care of Liang Xinyue. In contrast, as the general manager of a large company, Wei Yingyue was different; she could provide better care for Liang Xinyue in all aspects.

Afterward, you and Wei Yingyue discussed Liang Xinyue for a while. Unknowingly, Liang Xinyue became a bridge of communication between the two of you, and you reached some consensus and initial tacit understanding on certain matters.

While you were talking, a woman in a professional outfit suddenly ran into the carriage, her face panicked as she said to Wei Yingyue: "Something’s wrong! Officer Du is trapped!"

Upon hearing this, Wei Yingyue realized when Du Yanan had left the carriage. She and you rushed out of the carriage immediately. After exiting, Wei Yingyue told the woman who reported the news: "You stay and take care of Little Yue."

When you and Wei Yingyue arrived on the scene, you saw a group of people surrounding a pit. The pit led to a four-story concrete building. The building’s exterior walls were painted with bright red, yellow, and blue colors. Although the signs were damaged, you could still see some cartoon patterns on the broken walls, indicating it was probably a kindergarten.

At this time, half of the building had already sunk underground. What was originally a stairway had its surroundings severely damaged, making it impossible to go up or down normally.

Several firefighters stood by the pit, constantly discussing solutions.

Seeing Wei Yingyue appear, her employees rushed forward to explain: "Just now, Officer Du and several firefighter comrades went down to rescue the children. The children have been brought up, but when Officer Du was about to come up, an aftershock completely sealed the stairs. Now we can’t go down, and she can’t come up. What should we do?"

You quickly stepped forward to the firefighters and showed them your work ID before asking: "What’s the situation down there?"

"A female detective is trapped inside and can’t get out. Although there’s no immediate danger, the aftershocks keep happening. If the building sinks further, it could be disastrous..."

The talking firefighter couldn’t finish his sentence. Watching a beautiful woman risk her life to save others, only to be trapped inside now, they felt helpless and anxious beyond words.

Without saying a word, you took a searchlight from one of the firefighters and shone it into the pit, discovering it was indeed sealed off with no way down.

However, you didn’t give up. Holding the searchlight, you boldly crawled into the potentially collapsing structure, eliciting gasps from the crowd.

Wei Yingyue tried to follow, but her employees stopped her.

Before long, your figure appeared at a window about a dozen meters from the pit, shouting to the firefighters outside: "Give me a longer rope!"

As soon as you said that, the ground began to tremble violently again!

A firefighter, holding a rope, was about to advance when a concrete slab suddenly fell from above. Due to the proximity, the flying debris caused the firefighter significant injury.

While everyone worried about your safety, a figure rushed swiftly to your location.

"President Wei!"

Wei Yingyue’s colleagues called out in panic. They never expected Wei Yingyue to act so selflessly at this moment.

Aftershocks usually come and go quickly. When people stopped trembling, they saw Wei Yingyue agilely climbing over the wall, clutching a long rope in her hand.

Looking at Wei Yingyue, you said in a slightly flat tone, "You should leave first. I’ll get her out."

"No, Yanan is my best friend. I must go down with you to save her."

Looking straight at Wei Yingyue, you saw a steadfast glow in her eyes and said no more, only responded, "In that case, stay behind me."

In the brief moment of speaking, you had already secured one end of the rope. Holding the rope, you descended directly.

As you landed, you were surprised to find Wei Yingyue performed the descent skillfully, landing in front of you.

After all, both her appearance and identity suggested she wouldn’t possess such skills.

Wei Yingyue seemed to perceive your thoughts and said, "I graduated from the Police Academy too, but later I went into finance."

You raised an eyebrow, not saying anything further.

The two of you were now on the second floor, with Du Yanan on the floor below. One staircase leading down was blocked, so you and Wei Yingyue had to find another.

While you searched, Wei Yingyue’s pleasant voice suddenly called out: "I found it!"

Hastily, you went over and found Wei Yingyue standing in front of a broken staircase entrance, with several horizontal and vertical concrete slabs obstructing the way.

Pointing at a concrete slab before her, Wei Yingyue said, "Move it, and we can go down."

"Step aside."

Once Wei Yingyue moved aside, you stepped forward, grabbed one end of the concrete slab, and pulled back forcefully, causing it to shift!

With a "bang!" the concrete slab was wrenched out by your hands, leading to a cascade of surrounding debris, some falling down the stairs.

But this cleared the path ahead.

Seeing Wei Yingyue looking at you in astonishment, you flashed a charming smile. Even Wei Yingyue, seeing such a smile, felt her heart race. An ordinary woman might have fainted with happiness.

You led with the searchlight, while Wei Yingyue followed closely. Though there were some obstacles, your immense strength cleared the way ahead.

Upon reaching the bottom floor, Wei Yingyue began calling for Du Yanan: "Yanan, Yanan! Where are you?"

"Ying Yue?" In the darkness, Du Yanan’s voice suddenly responded.

You quickly directed the light and found Du Yanan sitting amidst rubble, unable to move.

Wei Yingyue rushed over to Du Yanan and asked, "Yanan, how did you get hurt like this?"
