The pilot nodded as well. They had been notified before they were dispatched. “We don’t have the details, but a landslide seems to have occurred over there.”
“We heard that the area was sealed by the staff earlier, though,” another rescuer spoke up. “So I’m pretty sure they have the situation under control.”
“The staff over there must be gods or something. How could they have predicted that a disaster would strike? It was a good thing they closed the area to tourists, or who knows how many casualties they would have in their hands as we speak?”
Yao tang lowered her eyes. She had a pensive expression on her face.
As they discussed the events that occurred at Fengyue Peak, a girl suddenly turned to the crowd and said, “Don’t you see what’s happening? Now that we are all trapped here, she acts as if she’s the one in charge. She’s just showing off, isn’t she?”
It was Chen Yi, her cheeks flushed, her eyes flashing with hatred.
When the teacher gave them instructions to rest earlier, she heard mention Yao Ranchatting with some of the students.Yao Tang’s name was mentioned several times.
Yao Ran’s voice had been filled with envy as she told her friends that she wished she was as brave as her cousin.
Of course, Chen Yi thought that Yao Ranwas being her usual hypocritical self, but even Chen Yi felt jealous of all the recognitionYao Tangwas receiving.
She couldn’t stand knowing that the bumpkin was hogging all the spotlight. She couldn’t stand Yao Ran, either. They were both opportunistic girls who were only after fortune and fame.
A small crowd had already gathered in their spot, and her words attracted a lot of attention.
Someone asked what she was talking about, and Chen Yi proudly repeated what she said.
She made sure to insist that she wasn’t targeting Yao Tang, she was merely telling the situation the way she saw it.
“I’m convinced that Yao Tangalready knew beforehand that there would be an earthquake, though I’m not sure where she could have obtained the information. She just wanted to be in the limelight and order everyone around. Don’t you see that she just wants you to worship her?
“We are all capable of making our own decisions, aren’t we? How could she expect us to follow her blindly? If something really happened, can she even afford to compensate us?”
Chen Yi used all of her skills in persuasion to get everyone on her side.
“That’s impossible,” someone pointed out. “Yao Tang isn’t that kind of person. What would she even gain from doing something like that?”
“That’s right. She’s already placed first at the Math Olympiad Competition and is even a top student in our grade. Why would she go to such lengths if all she wanted was fame? She’s already popular as it is!”
“Yeah, I think she was just guessing. She has pretty good instincts, too.”
“How would she even be able to predict a natural disaster? Do you have any evidence to back up your claims? If not, then you’re just slandering her!”
Chen Yi looked around frantically when she realized that her plan wasn’t working.
She had no evidence, of course, but the fact that she was the one being questioned now enraged her even further. They had even brought up the Math Olympiad Competition.
“So what if she ranked first, or that she’s a top student? Do you think good academic performance is automatically equivalent to a good character?”
A hush fell over the crowd. They all looked at Chen Yi pitifully, like she was some fool who had finally gone out of her mind.
Seeing this, Yao ranwalked up to her and pulled at her sleeve. “Chen Yi,” she said softly. “Don’t say anymore. I believe that my cousin would never do anything you just said. She can’t possibly risk everyone’s lives over something so trivial.”
Yao Ran wasn’t supposed to participate in today’s ceremony since the hike would only aggravate her foot injury.
But she didn’t want it to heal quickly, to begin with. Once she recovered, Qin Manwould definitely force her to undergo surgery. She wasn’t prepared to suffer everything that came after that.
Yao Ran hadn’t even informedQin Manthat she was joining today’s activities. Her goal was to worsen her injuries without the woman knowing.
She wouldn’t have to do the surgery, then.
At the moment, she was still waiting for the special medicine to be developed.
“Stop spouting nonsense, Yao Ran!” Chen Yi snapped in disgust, pushing the other girl away. “Don’t act all righteous now. Who here doesn’t know all about your scandal with the Yang family?”
