Tan Rou also said, “Dad, you stay behind to manage the company and take care of Mom, Grandpa, and Grandma. I’ll go with Eldest Brother. We’ll definitely bring Second Brother and the others back safely.”

Mr. Tao wanted to say something but was stopped by Tao Zhi. “Dad, with your physical condition, even if you go to the desert, you might not be able to adapt to the environment. If something happens to you, will the rescue team save you first or look for Second Brother first?”

Mr. Tao hesitated for a moment before relenting. “Alright, you and your sister will go together, but remember, you must ensure your own safety no matter what. Your mother and I can’t lose any of you.”

Tan Rou and her brother nodded and promised him that they would return safely. Tao Zhi handed the company’s affairs to Mr. Tao to handle. The reason he gave was that he was going overseas on a business trip. Tan Rou took a leave of absence from school, saying that something had happened at home.

In view of Tan Rou’s excellent results of passing all her final exams with full marks, publishing more than a dozen theses, and applying for four to five patents, the university was very tolerant of Tan Rou’s frequent leave of absence. As long as Tan Rou came back last to take the final exams, there were no other requirements.

After Zhuang Liu learned that Tao Zheng had gone missing in the desert, he wanted to go with Tan Rou. Tan Rou did not agree and asked him to stay in the capital to deal with work.

“Xiao Rou, you know that if I don’t go this time, I won’t be able to work in peace. Let me go with you, “Zhuang Liu said earnestly.

Zhuang Liu had already prepared for the worst. If something really happened to Tao Zheng, he would be the first to comfort Tan Rou.

Tan Rou couldn’t persuade him, so she agreed to let him go with her. Fortunately, there were no more troublemakers in the Zhuang family now. There was only Zhuang Xi, but Zhuang Xi worked very hard in the branch company and did not come into contact with the headquarters at all.

Due to the urgency of the situation, Tan Rou and the others took a private plane to the airport. The two private planes took off at the same time. Not only were Tan Rou and Zhuang Liu on the plane, but the rescue team from the Capital City was also on the plane.

Tan Rou was afraid that there weren’t enough people, so she used her connections to get the old men in the Capital to gather more experts who often explored the desert to join them.

Lu Qing also came to meet them. His girlfriend had gone missing, so he couldn’t just wait in the capital.

Time was of the essence, but when they arrived, it was already 10 o’clock in the evening. However, they only took a short rest. At dawn, everyone packed their bags and set off for the desert.

Tan Rou and the others first arrived at the main filming base. There was no one living there now. After the accident, the police had sealed off the place and transferred the remaining actors and crew to the nearest hotel.

“The sandstorm here is too strong,” the police said to Tan Rou and the rest in a thick dialect. “If you want to enter the desert, you have to be prepared.”

Then, he pointed at the two middle-aged men and said, “These are the guides in the desert. You must follow them when you enter. Don’t let anything happen.”

Actually, the police shouldn’t have let Tan Rou and the others enter the desert now. However, Tan Rou and the others insisted on entering the desert. No matter how they tried to persuade them, it was useless.

The police here were not very strict. Seeing that Tan Rou and the others were determined to die, they did not persuade them anymore and let them in. Tan Rou and the others had given the two guides a lot of money. Otherwise, they might not have gone to their desert. After all, the desert was too dangerous now.

Zhuang Liu tied the rope on his body to Tan Rou. If they encountered a sandstorm, this rope could also prevent them from separating.

They were connected together in pairs and finally strung all the ropes together with a long rope. This way, even if they encountered a sandstorm, they would not be blown away separately.

Everyone was carrying compressed biscuits and water. These things were enough for them to search the desert for five days. Hopefully, they could find them within five days.

If they couldn’t find him in five days, then the hope of Tao Zheng and the others surviving were very slim.

Looking at the vast desert, Tan Rou could only pray silently that nothing would happen to her. Since the heavens gave her a chance to live again, they would bless her family and friends to be safe.
