Reborn in the Eighties as a Housewife with a Space

Chapter 2431: Chapter 2425: Urgency of the Moment

"I had Xue Ling stay there with you because I was afraid you’d worry and go out, so I instructed Xue Ling," Chu Molin whispered.

"It’s also thanks to Xue Ling, otherwise, I might have gone out looking for you," Qin Xue thought, considering that they were in the snow mountain and not somewhere else. How could she not worry?

Besides, Chu Molin didn’t understand the head wolf’s language. It was really unsettling for him to go out like that. But thinking about the child in her belly, Qin Xue obediently stayed in the cave waiting for his return.

"Hmm, just be good and listen from now on. I said I wouldn’t let anything happen to myself, and I meant every word. We stumbled upon them that day by sheer luck," Chu Molin reflected on that eventful day, attributing their discovery to good fortune.

It turned out that after Chu Molin and the head wolf went out that day, when Chu Molin asked the head wolf to lead him down, he followed the head wolf’s jumping support points.

When they discovered one cave after another, there was no trace of them, and Chu Molin almost didn’t want to climb anymore, owing to the lack of safety measures. They relied solely on their hands and feet. It was already quite an achievement to climb to such a height.

Just as he was contemplating giving up, he heard a wailing sound. He thought he misheard, but when he focused intently, there was no sound. The head wolf was also listening carefully, appearing very excited and jumping even faster. Although Chu Molin struggled to keep up, he had no choice but to follow.

At that moment, another wail came, and man and wolf exchanged a glance, immediately understanding each other’s intent, then climbed down together.

During their search, they finally spotted a piece of cloth fluttering in the wind. Remembering the wailing sounds earlier, they knew the person and wolf they were looking for were there.

Later, Chu Molin went down alone to find them, while the head wolf returned to find Xue Ling, instructing it to get Qiu Zhiqiang and the others for rescue. This was how they located Ye Xuan.

He didn’t expect that when he saw Ye Xuan, his condition was so dire that he thought he was dead. Fortunately, he had the life-saving pills his wife gave him and fed him several at once, hoping to save him.

Later, his wife told him it was thanks to his actions; otherwise, Ye Xuan wouldn’t have made it. Looking at his arm, Chu Molin thought that amputation was better than losing his life. Whatever the case, saving a life was paramount. To his surprise, his wife told him that his condition could still be salvaged. After his wife worked tirelessly through the night, they managed to save both his arm and his life. It was genuinely challenging, and if it weren’t for bringing his wife along, Chu Molin believed Ye Xuan’s situation would’ve ended in tragedy. Truly, he was grateful for making that wise decision.

Chu Molin recounted all the events that transpired after he left that day to Qin Xue, believing that fate had been on their side. Otherwise, after such a long time, it would’ve been miraculous for Ye Xuan to survive, if not for divine intervention.

"You all are really daring, attempting such things without fear of falling to your deaths," Qin Xue said, frightened just by listening. Yet they climbed the cliff barehanded, truly reckless.

"It was an urgent situation, and I didn’t feel fear at all. It was because I knew I could do it that I did. Actually, we did have ropes, but our ropes were limited. So we could only descend to a certain height—precisely the area where they fell. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to find or rescue them," reflected Chu Molin, considering that without those conditions, even with a hundred chances, he might not have succeeded in finding and saving them.
