265 The Rescue and Accident
“Alright, now you can be more honest, can’t you?” Chu Ning looked at the pitiful couple in front of her and said softly.
“Just you wait! Don’t leave if you dare!” The rich woman obviously could not take this lying down. She held her boyfriend and looked at Chu Ning with hatred. She planned to head home first and then get someone to deal with Chu Ning!
“Do as you please, but please don’t get in my way for now.” Chu Ning did not care about the woman’s threat. In fact, if she wanted to take revenge on the two of them, she could have just let them go ahead. Climbing the observatory tower was almost certain death.
Light rain had already begun to fall from the dark sky. A heavy rain was incoming.
The arrogant rich girl and her boyfriend left the place. The remaining parkgoers also chose to wait for an hour after they had received the 2000 dollars from Chu Ning.
The exiting protective fence had already been opened by the staff, and the previous batch of visitors was walking out one after the other in a line. A few minutes later, when all the visitors had come out, the fence on the other side also slowly opened, so the next group of visitors could enter.
However, this time, no one went on this journey of death. Chu Ning had spent nearly 200,000 dollars to buy the current operating time of the observatory tower.
The tower and the queuing window were connected by a passageway that was tens of meters long. In another two minutes, the observatory tower would slowly rise again and finally crash down.
Chu Ning’s heart started to beat faster. She really did not want to see this happen, even though she had stopped the group of visitors. However, she knew that even if there was only a one in a million probability, she still had to do her best.
Just as Chu Ning was waiting for the final ending, a conversation between a mother and a staff member caught her attention again.
“My two children are still in the observatory tower and haven’t come out… ” The mother looked a little anxious. She didn’t know what was going to happen next. She was communicating with the staff and asking for the results.
“It’s fine, don’t worry. Just wait here. If you go in now and bring them out, you might not be able to make it in time. In 10 plus minutes, let that lady bring your two children out. She alone has booked the next operating time of the observatory tower.” The staff member did not really mind. She pointed at Chu Ning and said casually.
After hearing the staff’s words, the mother immediately walked towards Chu Ning.
“Pretty girl, can I trouble you to…?”
“Alright, I got it.” Before the woman could finish her sentence, Chu Ning ran towards the passaway entrance of the tower.
There was still over than a minute left. If she ran fast enough, she would have enough time.
Yan Shen watched Chu Ning run towards the huge observatory tower with a solemn expression. He had a bad feeling about this, but it was too late. Chu Ning had already run inside.
When she rushed into the observatory tower, she saw the two children squatting and playing on the ground carefreely. Without any hesitation, she grabbed the two children and ran outside in a mad dash. The two children were a little panic-striken. Before they could react, they were dragged away by an unfamiliar older sister…
The children could not keep up with Chu Ning’s speed, so they were indeed being dragged along.
Chu Ning was panting. There was only 30 seconds left. According to the original operating schedule, the fence should have been closed at the last minute, but the staff still made a move that would let his salary get deducted, after seeing what Chu Ning did.
After all, Chu Ning was risking her life, and he had only broken the rules. It was nothing.
The two rescued children were probably frightened by Chu Ning’s actions. They even forgot to cry. After they got up from the ground, they hugged their mother tightly.
This mother didn’t know what was going to happen next. She was grateful to Chu Ning for taking the risks to bring her children out, even though internally she thought that it was still fine to wait a little longer.
“It’s finally okay.” Chu Ning’s chest was heaving due to the intense exercise, but she felt relieved.
She really did it.
She changed the course of a disaster that was about to happen.
The surrounding visitors totally could not understand Chu Ning’s actions. She had paid such a huge price, yet she did not want to experience it for herself?
The rain grew heavier and heavier, accompanied by bursts of lightning and thunder. Thirty seconds passed quickly, and the huge observatory tower began to slowly rise into the air with a loud roar.
Chu Ning finally calmed down and became silent once again.
