Ruan Zhiyou's eyes were fixed on Pei Yan's figure. Her heart was full of fear and worry. She seemed to have really misunderstood Pei Yan. Maybe he really didn't block the signal on purpose, otherwise he wouldn't have risked his life to climb up the signal. The tower goes into repair.
This signal tower was very crude. It was welded with steel bars around it. There was a long distance in between. It was not even a ladder. Pei Yan climbed up by stepping on those steel bars.
Ruan Zhiyou's eyes gradually blurred, and she could barely see Pei Yan's figure. She wiped away her worried tears, took a deep breath, and walked around the signal tower. Wherever Pei Yan moved, she would go.
She thought that she could catch Pei Yan if he fell from above. Although she knew that she couldn't catch him and might be crushed to pieces by Pei Yan, she still had this clumsy idea.
Finally, she saw Pei Yan starting to come down, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
However, watching him climb down from such a high place little by little, she still did not dare to take it lightly.
When Pei Yan was only one ladder away from the ground, Ruan Zhiyou suddenly felt relaxed all over. She stepped forward and looked at Pei Yan, raising the corners of her lips and saying, "How is it, Pei Yan, has it been repaired?"
There was a hint of anticipation in her voice.
Pei Yan paused and turned to look at her, thinking that the first thing she did was not ask him how he was, but ask if the signal was repaired?
He couldn't help curling his lips and said with some pity: "The top of the tower was struck by lightning and collapsed, causing the lines to be broken. Professionals may be needed to repair it."
As soon as he finished speaking, the corners of Ruan Zhiyou's mouth suddenly dropped.
Sure enough, when she heard that it had not been repaired, her expression suddenly became unhappy.
Pei Yan looked at her pale face and suddenly felt soft. He stepped forward lightly and comforted her: "Don't worry, I will definitely be able to repair the signal tower if I think of a way."
However, Ruan Zhiyou raised his head and glanced at the towering signal tower, but shook his head and frowned: "Forget it, let's not repair it. We will think of other ways. As for the signal tower, we should wait for professionals to repair it."
Pei Yan raised his eyebrows. This answer surprised him. He didn't expect that she really planned to stop practicing.
The sun did not rise from the west today.
"Let's go back." Ruan Zhiyou turned around and wanted to walk back, but his feet went weak and he almost lost his balance.
Pei Yan immediately stretched out his arm to support her: "Are you okay?"
Ruan Zhiyou shook his head: "It's okay."
She was scared by Pei Yan just now, fearing that he would fall from the signal tower, and her legs were weak from fear. This move was quite embarrassing. Although the signal was not repaired now, everyone was fine, so she had nothing to blame.
"Are you really not going to fix it?" Pei Yan raised his eyebrows and asked with some confusion: "If we don't fix it, how can we contact the outside world and ask someone to pick us up?"
Ruan Zhiyou frowned, looking a little disappointed: "I don't know either..."
Pei Yan led her back slowly, stretched out his hand to rub her drooping head, and laughed softly: "You can't be so afraid, are you? Are you so afraid of my death?"
"I'm not afraid." Ruan Zhiyou raised his head and gave him a displeased look, "Don't always talk about death. It's bad luck."
Are you saying you're not afraid?
The mouth is quite tough.
Pei Yan's smile widened at the corners of his mouth, and he looked down at her, "Then why did I see your eyes were red just now, as if you were about to cry?"
Ruan Zhiyou subconsciously avoided his gaze and said slightly awkwardly: "You, you saw it wrong."
"Ang——" Pei Yan deliberately dragged out the last word, "It turns out I was wrong."
Ruan Zhiyou lowered her head and pursed her lips without speaking. She was timid and indeed scared. She was more afraid of danger to the people around her than having no signal.
After walking for a while, the blood circulation in the already stiff limbs slowly resumed.
Pei Yan slowed down and asked her, "Are you hungry? Do you want something to eat."
Ruan Zhiyou touched her belly gently. She had not eaten anything in the morning and was indeed a little hungry. She nodded slightly: "Yes."

After returning to the house, Pei Yan was cooking in the kitchen, while Ruan Zhiyou sat on a chair, holding his chin and lost in thought.
There was no signal in the house, and she was at a loss, not knowing how to get back.
Although she knew that Pei Yan was not in a hurry, she had no one else to ask except him.
She stared at Pei Yan and couldn't help but feel a little anxious in her heart, "Pei Yan, is there any other way for us to go back?"
Pei Yan poured the beaten eggs into the pot, began to fry them slowly, and replied: "No, but we can wait."
"Wait?" Ruan Zhiyou raised his head in confusion.
After frying the half-cooked runny eggs, Pei Yan turned down the heat, turned to look at her, and said with a smile: "My assistant sees that I haven't been back for a long time. He will come to see me, probably in the next two days."
Hearing this, Ruan Zhiyou stood up and quickly walked to his side: "Does he know we are here?"
Pei Yan nodded: "Yes."
"Are you sure he will come to us?"
"I've been missing for too long. He can't handle the company's affairs alone." Pei Yan added with a smile: "Get out of the way. There's a lot of fumes here. It's best for girls not to come in."
Ruan Zhiyou took a step back, but raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
She retreated to the door, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but ask: "You didn't lie to me this time, did you?"
Pei Yan looked at her directly and said in a very serious tone: "Don't worry, we won't let you stay here forever. We will definitely go out."
Ruan Zhiyou felt a little relieved. She looked at the fried eggs in the pot and pursed her lips slightly, "I want two eggs."
Pei Yan chuckled, "Okay."
It seemed like she was in a much better mood.

On the other side, Lin Hansheng was still looking for someone. When he saw his men coming in, he asked in a deep voice, "Is there any news?"
The subordinate replied in a low voice: "No Mr. Lin."
Lin Hansheng's brows couldn't help but frown, and he clenched the pen in his hand tightly, as if he wanted to crush it.
These days, the people he sent were looking for traces of Pei Yan everywhere, but they searched everywhere but could not find any trace of Pei Yan.
Not only did Pei Yan and Ruan Zhiyou lose contact, but Lin Zijin also disappeared for almost a week.
He sent Lin Zijin countless text messages, but she still didn't reply.
Lin Hansheng had a bad feeling in his heart——
His sister might be in trouble.
Lin Zijin has never been out of contact for so long since she was a child, and she doesn't even reply to messages, which means that she must be being held hostage, or something unexpected has happened to her...
And this is all related to Pei Yan!
At this time, the mobile phone rang.
Lin Hansheng picked up the phone and walked to the window and pressed the answer. An angry voice came from the other end of the phone: "Let him take Ruan Zhiyou away. If anything happens to Zijin again, I will never let him go!"
