Chapter 570: Defusing the Bomb
Translator: _Min_ |
Gu Dai instructed Su Ci over the phone, “I have a way to defuse the bomb. Just follow my instructions.”
Taken aback, Su Ci quickly followed Gu Dai’s directions.
Step by step, Gu Dai guided Su Ci through the defusal process. As time passed, cold sweat broke out on her forehead. She regretted designing the bomb so intricately back then, making its defusal so complicated. Coupled with Su Ci’s inexperience with bombs, the difficulty of defusing it skyrocketed.
The countdown became increasingly pressing.
Gu Dai’s voice shook with tension.
Finally, the minute ticking of the time bomb stopped, and its faint light dimmed.
The bomb was defused.
Su Ci, looking at the bomb’s timer stopped at ten seconds, could no longer maintain his composure and collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath, “Daidai, thank you.”
Gu Dai also breathed a sigh of relief, “It’s nothing.”
She knew that rescuing Su Ci was not yet over, her gaze fixed on the plane’s door through the video, “Now, the task is to crack the code of the plane’s door to get you out.”
At that moment, Su Ting spoke up, “Daidai, I’ve cracked it.”
After saying this, he showed Gu Dai the cracked password, along with a detailed process of decryption on a piece of paper.
Gu Dai was surprised, “You cracked the password while we were defusing the bomb?”
Su Ting nodded with a smile, “Yes.”
After Su Ci entered the password, he successfully exited the plane. Gu Dai and Su Ting, seeing his figure, finally let their suspended hearts settle.
Gu Dai, fearing there might be other dangers on the plane, quickly called Su Ci over.
Suddenly, a loud explosion sounded not far away.
All three were startled, the same question flashing through their minds: Did Father Su plant bombs elsewhere?
They immediately headed towards the source of the explosion and saw Aad standing coldly at the shore upon arrival.
Gu Dai asked, “What happened here?”
Aad, looking down, angrily said, “It’s all because of my romantic fool dad. He was deceived by Wang Sui again. She managed to escape while everyone’s attention was not on her. Fortunately, I discovered it in time and stopped her from leaving.”
Gu Dai then asked, “What about the explosion?”
Just then, a man dressed as a guard approached and reported, “Miss Aad, as per your instructions, I forced her yacht to stop by ramming it with another yacht. However, there’s some damage to the yacht…”
Aad, unconcerned, waved it off, “Any losses should be reported to my butler, and it will be paid from my personal account.”
After the guard acknowledged and left to continue his duties, Gu Dai, hearing that Wang Sui was captured again, had an idea. She asked Aad, “Can you hand Wang Sui over to me? I have some matters to attend to with her.”
Aad immediately agreed, “Sure.”
Gu Dai, surprised by Aad’s easy cooperation, said, “Thank you, Aad. As a token of gratitude, I’ll cover the yacht’s expenses.”
Aad shook her head, looking up at the sun with a pleased mood, “Money is not important. Resolving the issue with Wang Sui is what truly makes me happy. Besides, the profits from the project we’re collaborating on are worth hundreds of yachts.”
After saying this, Aad led Gu Dai to see Wang Sui, while Su Ting took the shaken Su Ci to rest in their room.
Wang Sui lay on the ground, her hair disheveled and eyes staring blankly at the ceiling.
Aad, with her arms crossed, said indifferently, “You should feel lucky someone wants to take you away. Otherwise, I would have locked you in a dungeon for life.”
Upon hearing Aad’s words, Wang Sui’s eyes lit up, excitedly asking, “He came to rescue me, right?”
Gu Dai entered at that moment, waving at Wang Sui with a regretful tone, “I’m sorry, it’s me again, not him.”
Wang Sui’s expression dimmed, murmuring, “So it’s not him rescuing me.”
Upon seeing Wang Sui’s state, Aad shook her head disapprovingly, unable to understand how she had once been unable to surpass such a love-stricken woman. With a light scoff, she cast aside the doubts at the bottom of her heart and turned to Gu Dai with a smile, saying, “Go ahead and talk; I won’t disturb you here.”
Gu Dai nodded, and after Aad left, she turned to Wang Sui, “Let’s talk..”
