Chapter 264: Shen Yan’s Hesitation. The Cliff Rescue

Shen Yan immediately saw Yun Jian who came back.

Her skin without a blemish, powder or rouge was glowing and soft. There was a natural beauty to Yun Jian. Her lips that were pressed together into a slight upward curl was bewitching, commanding one’s attention and not letting it go.

Shen Yan thought that this must be love at first sight!

When Shen Yan had suggested hiking together earlier, he did not even ask the opinion of his group members. He just wanted to get to know Yun Jian.

Now, perhaps he wanted to put on the hero cape in front of Yun Jian, he took off his black jacket and gave it to Wang Fengfeng.

“Hold it,” he said before walking toward the boy who was hung on the tree by the cliff.

The boy’s mother was still crying for help on the side. It was easy to guess that it was probably due to a slight distraction of hers that the little boy had tripped and slipped off from the metal railing as he was so small.

If it were not for the rows of tree branches growing on the side of the cliff that the locals had planted to prevent someone from falling off the edge, the boy would probably have fallen deep down with broken bones.

“Brother Yan, no!” Shen Yan who was going to save the boy was pulled back by Wang Fengfeng on his sleeve.

“The cliff is so tall! And it’s so steep! What if something happens to you!” Wang Fengfeng’s worried gaze roamed all over Shen Yan with fear.

Then, it changed to abhorrence when she looked toward the boy’s mother who stood by the ridge crying for help in despair.

“She’s the one who didn’t look after her child properly. Why must others save her kid for her? she deserves it!”

The moment that Wang Fengfeng stopped Shen Yan, he hesitated.

It was true that he wanted to act heroically in front of Yun Jian, but the little boy was hanging on a branch by the cliff!

There were no tools here for the rescue either. What if he fell instead when he saved him?

With that in mind, fear trickled into Shen Yan’s handsome face.

The expression was caught by Yun Jian. She scoffed and slid her backpack off her shoulders. Pulling the zipper with her fair hand, she fished out something from her bag instantly.

It was a grappling hook!

“Yun Jianer, you actually thought of bringing this?” Chu Ning cried in delightful surprise when she saw Yun Jian brandishing the device, having just been worried about the boy who was hanging and swaying from the ridge.

A military standard grappling hook! As long as they secured it well, someone could go down with the rope to save the boy.

“Mm.” Yun Jian nodded and tossed the grappling hook. The claw grasped onto a secure point by the cliff and Yun Jian hopped off the cliff swiftly.

Shen Yan and friends who saw the scene felt their eyes twitch. All of them were shocked, especially when Yun Jian took out the grappling hook.

Who were these people? Why did they bring a device like the grappling hook that only Special Forces carried around when they were out traveling?

As they thought about it, they were stunned again.

Yun Jian pushed off at a perfect angle and approached the boy with the help of the grappling hook. With an arm carrying the boy, she retracted the grappling hook and stomped on a protruding part of the cliff before she sprang up dexterously with the kid in her arm.

While everyone’s heart stilled at the suspense, Yun Jian had already come up to safety with the boy.

Shen Yan and his friends were baffled.

Why did Yun Jian who looked so frail possess such speed and agility! It did not make sense!

Blood drained from Wang Fengfeng and Wu Hang who had spoken illy about Yun Jian and her friends.

Yun Jian had rescued the boy and placed him down on solid ground and finally had a proper look at him.

The little boy was adorable. He had supple skin with pink cheeks, looking like he did not realize he had just been through a life or death crisis.

Yun Jian was frozen at the sight. Her eyes widened before she stared unblinking at the boy, engulfed in a tide of emotions.

The boy looked exactly like her baby brother in her previous life!
