Chapter 515: Chapter 515

Throughout the journey, no words were exchanged, but they arrived safely at the Longfeng Mountain Grand Canyon Scenic Spot, a famous 5A-level tourist area.

It's a large crevice-type canyon over thirty kilometers long with quite deep waters.

To the left of the headwaters of the canyon is Dragon Mountain, which resembles a majestic and enduring azure dragon stretching over a hundred li.

To the right is Feng Mountain, which takes the shape of a grand phoenix, incredibly magnificent and also spanning a hundred li.

The grand canyon between the dragon and the phoenix offers endless beauty, with pathways along both banks that provide a cool and leisurely experience. Simply walking on either side is already a pleasure and a comfort.

With the canyon waters deep, cruise boats come and go, giving a different kind of enjoyment as one wanders the waters and takes in the sights of both banks.

There are also those who prefer hiking, starting from the base of Dragon Mountain to the Dragon Head Peak, then walking down into the valley, crossing the natural bridge, and climbing Feng Mountain. Of course, there are also those who start from the top of Feng Mountain and make their way down Dragon Mountain. The approaches differ, but unique views await everyone.

Some people even stay in a homestay on the mountain, watching the sunset or sunrise; it's all a matter of personal choice.

Generally speaking, it takes three days to fully enjoy the grand canyon, and it's well worth it. The entry ticket allows you come and go—a once-in-you're-in situation—stay for ten days or half a month if you like.

The comfortable and luxurious Big Lao car ride gave Liu Zhizhong the thrill of driving; steady as flat ground, the nearly three-hour trip didn't tire him one bit.

Upon reaching the parking area of the scenic spot, wow, the multitude of cars, the throngs of people at the tourist center, Liu Zhizhong couldn't help but take a deep breath of cool air.

"It's not even the weekend, so why are there so many people?"

Xiang Wenxin, wearing big sunglasses, glanced around and said indifferently, "Maybe it's because Mister L isn't too shabby at sneaking in product placements in his latest work, he's really given Rong City and Longfeng Mountain a big boost! This dude is seriously talented!"

Her habitual little swear word paired with the condescending nod, it was truly a form of heartfelt appreciation.

Liu Zhizhong secretly delighted in his heart but didn't want to admit that he was Mister L; there was no need for such ostentation.

Otherwise, with Xiang Wenxin's personality, she might unmask him on the spot.

If that happened, he'd be overwhelmed by enthusiastic fans - how could he then go enjoy the grand canyon or hike the mountains?

Indeed, as Mister L, Liu Zhizhong's voice during work launches was always artistic—it differed from the colloquial speech of daily life.

It was only natural that Xiang Wenxin couldn't recognize him as Mister L.

Of course, to Miss Xiang, Liu Zhizhong, that 'Silver thief,' also had a rather pleasant voice.

Yes, she had started calling Liu Zhizhong 'Silver Thief' and even 'Little Silver.'

Being given a nickname by the daughter of a powerful family was indeed a blessing, and Liu Zhizhong, well aware of himself, did not object and happily accepted it.

Just as Qian Xuan called him 'Mister Twister' and 'Support God,' he also accepted it with pleasure.

Thereupon, Liu Zhizhong nodded and said, "Right, that's possible. He's quite a charming guy."

Good Lord, was he being honest or modest?

Xiang Wenxin replied, "Indeed, he's quite charming! But this dude is also quite mysterious. He's even collaborating with Feng Jianren's company! When I have some free time, I'll go to Hu Yang, rip off his disguise, and see what he actually looks like!"

"Uh, divulge his secret guise, you mean?"

"Yeah, must divulge! I'm serious, this kind of display of mystery isn't great. Either he's short, ugly, or he's got some defect. Otherwise, there's no way he wouldn't reveal his face or identity. Even if he pixelates his face, he should show something, right? I bet those who hide like that can't be presentable. If he really were something to look at, I'd venture he'd be worth more than just billions, possibly even trillions!"

She belittled and discredited while making it sound so logical.

Liu Zhizhong struggled to keep his composure but still managed a laugh, "Exactly, Miss Xiang is always right!"

"Of course! The logic has to be consistent!" She was somewhat self-satisfied and then, after adjusting her backpack, she gestured, "Let's go, we're off to scale the mountain, all the way to Dragon Mountain Peak!"

Watching her nimble steps in her hiking boots and her charming, youthful figure disappearing into the distance, warmth stirred in Liu Zhizhong's heart.

Liu Zhizhong hurriedly shouldered his travel backpack, stocked with water and some food, and followed her. Yet in his heart, he mused, what a self-consistent logician the young miss is, heh...

Nonetheless, as he followed Xiang Wenxin, he asked, "Where's your brother?"

"At Dragon Mountain Peak!"

"My goodness…" Liu Zhizhong exclaimed, genuinely impressed.

Dragon Mountain Peak, at an altitude of 1618 meters, is very spacious, with numerous tourist homestays and attractions. Just like Feng Mountain summit, it's a prime spot for watching sunrises, sunsets, and the glistening stars, driving a flourishing tourism economy.

But the fact that the eldest son of the Xiang family was staying up there was truly ostentatious.

Of course, Liu Zhizhong nodded, "It's just past 9 o'clock in the morning now; by the time we climb up there, it'll be just in time to watch the sunset, then meet your brother, and then take the cable car back down the mountain, right?"

"Why not stay another night on the mountain, watch the sunrise tomorrow morning before descending? Tomorrow, we could spend the day at Feng Mountain and come down after dark, or is staying a night at Feng Mountain summit and descending the next morning at daybreak also not okay? Little Silver, are you just anxious about Ma Qingqing? Or is it that a boy out on his own needs to learn self-defense? Afraid big sis will gobble you up?"

Her words rolled out soft and sticky like molasses, tinged with a Southern accent, leaving Liu Zhizhong speechless.

The quick-tongued young Miss Xiang, she sure was interesting…
