Chapter 15 - 19 Is Heaven Also Bullying Her?
The woman noticed that neither Liu Hu nor Lin Junyang paid any attention to her. She then looked towards the tree branch, but the man who was on the tree had already disappeared. Only then did she realize what she had just grabbed.
She pouted and muttered, "Can't he swim? Is it necessary to be so nervous? He left me here, not knowing how to swim, and kept talking about rescue. What kind of world is this, bullying ordinary people without power or influence?"
As she muttered, she held onto the rope and swam bit by bit towards the shore...
Due to the heavy rain, An Ran had to wait at the station for two days before getting a bus to Linjiang. Once she got on the bus, she didn't expect that when they were close to Lin'an, the driver would change direction, saying that the road ahead was flooded and they had to get off there to go to Linjiang.
After getting off the bus, An Ran sorrowfully realized that she was the only one going to Linjiang.
Looking at the desolate road, without a village in front or a shop behind, An Ran looked up at the sky speechlessly. Was heaven also bullying her?
Fortunately, the driver had told her that if she walked about 20 miles forward, she would reach the city area. If she was lucky, she might get a hitchhike. The sky looked clear for now, so An Ran felt it was a blessing in disguise.
She walked along the road for a while and came across the washed-out section the driver mentioned. To be precise, it was an uphill road which, due to rainwater and the wheels of vehicles, had severe water accumulation and was indeed unfit for travel.
An Ran detoured around it and arrived at a dam. This road was built on a large dam, with a small river on one side which was a branch of the Qiu River.
After several days of rain and floods in the mountain area, the water level of this small river had significantly risen, and the flow had become more rapid. An Ran walked while observing the scenery on both sides.
