Chapter 47: Ugly Appearance

  Lin Yu ran quickly through the tunnel, not daring to stop his own footsteps, afraid that if he stopped, he would not be able to help but turn back. Jiao Enjun's parting gaze kept flashing before his eyes. Lin Yu did not know how to face those eyes, only feeling guilt, nothing but guilt.

  One year ago on the battlefield, he abandoned the elephant, and the glorious victory brought Lin a gold five-star medal symbolizing the pinnacle of honor. Thirty seconds ago, he once again abandoned his comrade. Damn it! Damn it! Lin was scolding himself in his heart. He had sworn an oath, sworn not to abandon any comrade again. But now, he still had no choice but to leave Jiao Enjun behind. No way out, not a single way out.

  Lin Yu's heart was aching. His mood was as dark as this long tunnel.

  The humid environment made Lin Yu's face full of saltiness**, but it was unclear whether it was mud or tears.

  Soon, Lin Yu caught up with those people. They were surrounding a group arguing. The old couple and Chen Yun stood outside the circle. The old man's face was full of helplessness, while Chen Yun still had a cold expression, only with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

  "What are you doing? What are you doing?" Lin Yu finally couldn't hold back his anger.

  Since returning to Hannan, the successive changes have made him completely lose his mind in the unbearable torture of abandoning his companions for the second time in the tunnel. He has even forgotten that he is facing only a group of ordinary people.

  Lin took a step forward, his hands forcefully parting the crowd. Without even looking or asking, he had already swung his fists at the two people in the center of the circle, hitting them squarely in the face. The two covered their injured faces and finally stopped, gazing fearfully at Lin Yu's furious expression, not daring to say another word.

  "What are you two arguing about?" Lin Yu tried to calm himself down and coldly scanned the two people in front of him. These two people were both familiar to Lin Yu, one was that student named Zhang Bo, and the other was the tunnel administrator.

  "Hmph, I wanted the women and children to go through first, but they...". Zhang Bo pointed at several middle-aged men led by the administrator. "They actually said something about coming first and going first, insisting on going first."

  "You little brat, you're asking for it!" The middle-aged man's face was already red with rage.

  Zhang Bo and several other students were naturally unwilling to show weakness, and both sides stood facing each other, shouting.

  "That's enough." After a loud roar, the tunnel finally quieted down. Everyone once again focused their attention on Lin Yu. "Women and children first, men last." Lin Yu waved his hand somewhat tiredly, surprisingly not getting angry again, but instead stepped aside.

  Chen Yun hastily went over and gently grasped Lin Yu's arm. She was the first person to discover that something was amiss with Lin Yu, after all they had lived together for so long, Chen Yun understood this seemingly strong man better than anyone else.

  She knew that sometimes, when faced with a helpless situation, men could become more fragile than women.

  As her fingers came into contact with Lin Yu's skin, Chen Yun clearly felt it, Lin Yu's robust body was violently trembling in the darkness.

  She gently pulled Lin Yu's palm and silently comforted his body with her own body temperature.

  "Lin... Brother Lin, Jiao... where's Brother Jiao?" Zhang Bo, who had a good relationship with Jiao Enjun, was the first to notice that something was off and asked anxiously.

  Lin gazed at Zhang Bo with a gloomy expression and slowly shook his head.

  Zhang Bo was stunned for a moment, seemingly not understanding Lin Yu's meaning, but he quickly came to his senses and rushed towards the depths of the tunnel like a madman. He had only run a few steps when he was firmly caught by Lin Yu. His originally weak body struggled hard once, finally losing control and bursting into loud sobs. Even Chen Yun, who was naturally cold and proud, couldn't help but have her eyes redden.

  A uniform sigh echoed through the crowd.

  Lin Yu looked at the crowd and sneered in his heart. How many of them were really sad for Jiao Enjun?

  How many more are thinking of themselves while others die? Lin Yu shook his head in his heart, the indifference of human hearts is far more terrifying than a tunnel collapse.

  That tunnel administrator, still cowering and talking to the surrounding crowd. Looking at his appearance, Lin Yu couldn't help but want to punch him in the face again. The task of investigating the tunnel should have been his. The one who should be suppressed is him, not Jiao Enjun!!!

  Lin Yu repeatedly warned himself in his heart that this was not the time to lose his temper, he had to restrain himself. He tried hard to suppress his anger. Suddenly, a weak small hand stretched out from the darkness and tightly grasped his palm. A warm and gentle sensation kept coming, Lin Yu raised his head, and a pair of extremely bright eyes in the darkness were deeply staring at him.

  In an instant, Lin Yu's heart calmed down. For some reason, every time Lin Yu and Chen Yun were together, he was unusually calm. Those restless emotions seemed to have been driven away by her.

  It was a purely comfortable feeling.

  It's possible that this is why Lin fell in love with Chen Yun. Chen Yun was the first and only woman he had met who could make him feel at ease.

  Lin Yu's emotions gradually calmed down, he waved his hand and the crowd began to take turns diving into the underwater passage.

  Since Jiao Enjun has chosen this path, it's too late to think about anything now. So, what Lin Yu'er should consider now is how to take these people away.

  Jiao Enjun used his own life to show himself a clear direction, although he didn't know where the road would lead. However, Lin Yu couldn't give up at this time.

  At least for the sake of that man who had been sleeping in the dark tunnel, Lin You didn't have a reason to give up.

  。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

  At this time, the excavation team outside finally stopped digging and blasting. Now, Lin Yu had less than 1 hour left.

  。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。。

  Writing on a PDA is really an extremely painful thing... Every day I have to complain once, actually it's not because I'm a complaining husband, but just because my eyes are really unbearable... I want a laptop... A deep and passionate cry.

  Considering how diligent, hardworking and strong I am, shouldn't you give me some likes?

  No need for idle chatter, everyone pay attention, I write well, you're good and I'm good, everyone's good, right?

  Save it, save it...
