Genius Aberrant: Prodigious Miss Overturning The World With Her Aberration 70 Only Realizing When It's Too Late... 2

"Master, do not be so hasty to panic, Miss Xue might be fine" The branch manager consoled, he felt that it really was a pity, it was a once in a million years occurrence that his master is intimate with a girl but it seems that it's impossible between them.

"I shouldn't have left her to her own devices" He regretted it, he should've kept her by his side, if he catches that idiot responsible for the collapse... that person will know the meaning of a life worse than death.

What he regretted even more was that he didn't and won't ever get to express his feelings for her at this rate.

Huang Qian Yang was asked by his friend to check out the situation with the ruins since he was relatively familiar with Moonlight Continent but after he had confirmed that other powers from Sunlight Continent had made a move and was about to leave to discuss further measures, the ruins started collapsing!

He didn't bring many men with him but thankfully he was near the surface and managed to escape safe and sound with his men.

However, when he came out, he was met with various people grieving and countless heart-breaking scenarios went through his mind, 'she should be strong enough to escape' he reasoned with himself 'but what if she was several hundred miles deep in the ground', despairing thoughts went through his mind and he was on the verge of insanity.

Emotions such as panic and excess worry can really mess with/cloud a persons judgement but if it's from love, it just shows the amount of concern they have for the other party.

He still hadn't confessed to her...

Hadn't requested her hand in marriage from her parents...

Hadn't grown old with her...

He dug into the piles of rubble with his men and explored the entire area underground but couldn't find a shadow of her.

It was only after numerous persuasions did he return, a ray of hope lit in his heart by the possibility of her being back in the Auction House.

Unfortunately, to his dismay, what greeted him was a desolate room, even the girl who was with Xue Lian had disappeared.

At this moment he didn't care if that girl with Xue Lian could possibly be from the Tian Family or the persecution he would face from her clan for his failure in protecting her, only anguish and grief filled his heart.

He condemned himself for not being there to protect her.

Love is like a black hole once you get sucked into it you will just keep falling deeper and deeper and once you pass a certain point there is no escape.

Just while he was going through his internal torment, a sound of sobbing was heard.

"That stupid Huang Qian Yang, he should've just stayed in Rarity Dew Auction House lazing about like usual instead of going out!" A familiar voice cried.

"X-xue Lian" Huang Qian Yang's voice was shaking from relief.

"Qian Yang!" Xue Lian immediately ran away from Zi Hua's shoulder hug and into Huang Qian Yang's arms.

"Idiot! You were fine all this time, you made me worry for nothing!"

"Where were you, I've been looking for you" Huang Qian Yang asked whilst embracing her.

"I've been going around looking for you, now what were YOU doing?" Xue Lian replied whilst throwing an accusing glare at him.

"Digging in rubble trying to find you, we must've missed each other" Only now did Xue Lian notice the dirt covered clothes he was wearing.

Xue Lian had been rushing around whilst disregarding her surroundings and everything else, desperately dragging Zi Hua along giving the two no chance of noticing Huang Qian Yang.

"Sorry, I didn't mean to blame you, forgive me okay?" Xue Lian blushed out of embarrassment from blaming him.

A brazen thought popped into Huang Qian Yang's head, a sly smile appeared on his face.

"I'll only forgive you if..." He paused to add suspense, contemplating on whether he should or not.

"I'm really sorry, I'll do anything for you to forgive me" Xue Lian felt really guilty when she blamed him despite him disregarding his usual manner of doing things and dug in the rubble to search for her.
