Chapter 172: Chapter 172

Feng Huaijin raised an eyebrow slightly, his voice filled with intrigue: "Oh? You’re panting at home?"

Su Li wondered to herself, can climbing a mountain really make you tired?

"I was exercising at home, so I won’t tell you."

Su Li said that and then rudely hung up the phone.

Cloud Mist Mountain is primitive forest, so the further you go up the mountain, the weaker the signal becomes.

At first, Chu Lianxin was enthusiastic, but later got as tired as a wild dog.

She clamored to have the bodyguard carry her up.

The bodyguard, hired by the Chu Family, naturally had to work tirelessly, carrying Chu Lianxin up the mountain with a mournful expression.

Su Li looked around, clearly hearing the cicadas and snakes in the forest, a chilling atmosphere pervading.

Does anyone really live here?

Su Li instinctively rubbed her arms, goosebumps rising all over her body.

Chu Lianxin secretly watched the back of Su Li’s head, suddenly a crafty plan formed in her mind.

She was indeed afraid of prison, but this Cloud Mist Mountain is a primitive forest, there’s no signal up here, and no surveillance...

"Ouch... ouch!" Chu Lianxin, lying on the bodyguard’s back, wailed suddenly, looking extremely pained.

"Miss Lianxin, what’s wrong? What’s happened to you?" The bodyguard panicked and hurriedly put Chu Lianxin down.

Chu Lianxin clutched her stomach, her face pale, she gently bit her lip and said with difficulty: "I...my stomach hurts a lot, I want to go to the bathroom."

Where did this bathroom come from?!

"You’ll have to find a spot and make do."

Chu Lianxin nodded, her gaze shifted to Su Li, "Su Li, help me to the mountain entrance to go to the bathroom."

Su Li glanced over, somewhat reluctantly, "Your stomach hurts, not your legs."

Chu Lianxin’s eyes reddened, sobbing: "I’m scared, okay? Accompany me, and I’ll accompany you next time. You still want to go back to the Chu Family, right? Aren’t you going to get along with me?"

Su Li’s lips curled into a faint smile, but she couldn’t deny that Chu Lianxin’s words were true.

She lived in the Chu Family for eighteen years, these eighteen years of feelings with the family can’t just be severed. Even knowing that the parents gradually liked Chu Lianxin, she... still wanted to try to go back to the Chu Family, back to the life she once had.

So... what Chu Lianxin said was right.

Su Li said irritatedly: "Fine, I’ll go with you."

Chu Lianxin’s eyes showed a hint of satisfaction, immediately heading to the mountain entrance with Su Li, then shouted back at the worried bodyguards: "Don’t , anyone who follows is trying to peek at us in the bathroom, I’ll report back to my dad and dock your pay!"

The bodyguards who wanted to follow stopped in their tracks at this. Latest content publıshed on N0velFire.ɴet

Stepping lightly on the dry branches, approaching the mountain entrance, the mountain breeze made the whole body shiver with goosebumps.

"Hurry up," Su Li snapped.

Su Li was about to step aside when Chu Lianxin suddenly extended a hand, tightly grabbing her jade-like wrist.

Su Li was slightly startled, asked suspiciously: "Chu Lianxin, what are you doing?"

In that instant, Su Li’s guard came up sharply.

"Su Li, go to the left!" A man’s slightly anxious voice called out behind her ear.

In Chu Lianxin’s eyes, a cold light exploded instantly, she shouted sternly: "Su Li, the Chu Family has either you or me, not both. You go down—"

Chu Lianxin suddenly reversed her hand, instantly making a move to push Su Li towards the mountain entrance.

Su Li lunged to the left with all her might, causing Chu Lianxin to stagger into empty space, almost falling into the abyss.

A sense of fear climbed over her heart in an instant, almost drowning her completely.

Why is she the one falling?!!
