Day by day passed, and while the Xu couple waited for Xu Wan to change her mind, a piece of terrible news struck them one day, half a month later.
Xu Wan, while traveling with classmates, was on a bus that suddenly suffered brake failure, causing all eighteen passengers on board to plunge off a cliff.
"Honey, Little Wan... Little Wan, she..." Mrs. Xu's tears fell uncontrollably, her hand clutching the watering can trembling nonstop.
"Don't worry, Little Wan will definitely be okay." Xu Zhen's throat felt as though it was lodged with sharp stones, leaving every movement piercingly painful.
"What do we do? What now... My Little Wan."
"The police still haven't given us any news. We should go there ourselves. Little Wan is blessed; she'll surely be rescued."
Xu Zhen was as terrified as anyone else, but as the head of the family, he knew if he panicked now, the family would crumble.
