Chapter 175: Chapter 175
Chu Lianxin hid behind a big tree and changed into a spare pair of long pants before coming out and saying, "No need to wait for Su Li, let’s go on our own."
The bodyguard hesitated a bit and said, "Mr. Chu and the madam asked us to ensure your and Miss Su Li’s safety, Miss Su Li she..."
Chu Lianxin shouted discontentedly, "Didn’t you see her friend come? Besides, I am the real eldest daughter of the Chu Family! The ones dad and mom care about is me, not her."
Thinking of Feng Huaijin’s murderous look just now, Chu Lianxin couldn’t help but shiver.
She constantly comforted herself, thinking Seventh Master Feng should be acting heroically.
Chu Lianxin took out the Jade Pendant and the map given by Chu Hongyuan from her pocket.
The map was left to Chu Hongyuan by a benefactor back then.
Chu Lianxin felt a bit complacent; without the Jade Pendant and the map, how could Su Li possibly get recognition? ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ NoveI-Fire.ɴet
By then, she would have to go down the mountain in disgrace.
Besides, there was no surveillance just now; if Su Li ran back to complain, she would just deny it to the death.
Without Feng Huaijin, Chu Lianxin regained her ambition, took the bodyguards, and disappeared into the forest.
Su Li had no choice but to follow Feng Huaijin and Xiao Heng.
Su Li couldn’t help but ask, "How come you’re here?"
Xiao Heng smiled and explained, "My aunt, meaning Brother Qi’s mother, is seriously ill in Yanjing. One of the reasons we came to Jiang City is to seek medicine."
"Just now, we tracked Xu Xing into this Cloud Mist Mountain, but he suddenly disappeared."
As soon as Xu Xing was mentioned, Su Li became a bit unnatural.
Last time, it was her who helped Xu Xing escape...
That guy flew away using a glider.
Looking at the trees in the forest, for a moment she found it a bit difficult and didn’t know where to continue walking.
Feng Huaijin’s deep gaze showed some annoyance; he had lost track of the person again.
Seeing Feng Huaijin’s gaze, Su Li felt a bit guilty. Was he distracted because he saved her, thus losing track of the person?
Amid the stalemate, Su Li’s phone on her waist suddenly vibrated.
Xiao Heng was somewhat amused and said, "This mountain is a primitive forest that hasn’t been developed. Can Miss Su Li’s phone still receive messages?"
Su Li was also puzzled, wondering why as well.
When she took it out and looked, she immediately brightened up.
The person who sent the message was none other than... Tuanzi!
Because last time she spent five billion, she and Tuanzi got another permission to send pictures, though only one per day.
[Tuanzi loves mom the most: Is mom going up the mountain? I have a detailed route map here.]
With that said, a picture was sent along.
Feng Huaijin raised an eyebrow and asked casually, "Who are you chatting with?"
"My son," she replied.
Feng Huaijin’s eyebrow twitched slightly: "..."
Another son. Where on earth did she get a son from?
Su Li enlarged the map and laughed immediately, "I know where to go now."
This son was much more reliable than Feng Huaijin as the dad.
Su Li wanted nothing more than to hug Tuanzi and give him a big kiss.
Following the map, Su Li took a step forward, only to be pulled back by a strong force on her wrist.
Su Li looked up at Feng Huaijin; his deep eyes were full of seriousness.
Could it be... he was trying to protect her?
Su Li was dumbfounded for a moment; she was about to speak when she heard him say in a disgusted tone, "Su Li, stop wearing those purple contacts. They’re ugly."
The bit of goodwill Su Li had in her heart instantly evaporated.
Haha, you’re the ugly one!
