showed up. The only person who hadn't arrived was Qiao Donghai from the Qiao family."Shaoye, Xiaocan, I thought you weren’t going to come," said Lin Zihao with a smile as he walked towards them, foll...Chapter 976: I'm Sure We've Never Met Before - Wuyou Chinese Network

Zhao Yujie actually believed Su Su's last sentence. Even if she were to report the incident here, the police wouldn't be able to arrive anytime soon. This morning, when she got into that car supposedly heading for Green Peak Mountain, it turned out that they couldn't proceed further by vehicle and had to walk the rest of the way. Moreover, walking would take at least several dozen miles. She walked slowly all along and only arrived here now. As for those college students in the car with her, they seemed to still be lagging behind, and there was no telling whether or not they could make it.

Seeing that Zhao Yujie hadn't responded, Su Su couldn't help but ask again: "Hey, are you also heartbroken It looks like you came here in a hurry without bringing anything at all. You seem quite upset."

"No." Zhao Yujie shook her head. "I haven’t dated before; how could I have been heartbroken"

When she thought about not having dated, Zhao Yujie couldn't help but recall Xia Tian—the rogue who insisted on calling her his wife. She hadn't even started dating when he declared her to be his wife.

"I told you, how could you possibly get dumped With your conditions, you can only make others get dumped, not yourself." Susu looked enlightened and then guessed, "Are you here looking for inspiration"

"Sort of. Just want to relax and take a break," Zhao Yujie said hesitantly.

“Is that so!” Upon hearing this reason, Susu seemed slightly disappointed but quickly cheered up again. “Then how about we climb Qingfeng Mountain together tomorrow I heard people say that it's quite strange because no one has ever climbed to the top of Qingfeng Mountain. I don’t believe in that nonsense and am determined to give it a try.”

"There’s actually such a thing" Zhao Yujie was also rather surprised; she had never heard of a mountain that couldn't be scaled, even Mount Everest could be climbed.

“I’ve just heard about this too. I’m not sure if it's true or not, but Qingfeng Mountain is indeed quite high. Maybe many people run out of energy halfway up and so they say nobody can reach the top,” Susu replied.

Zhao Yujì pondered for a moment and then nodded: "Then let's go climb Green Peak Mountain tomorrow."

"Yay, deal! We should sleep early tonight and wake up early in the morning to set off!" Susu was very excited. "I'll check if Aunt Zhang has finished cooking our meal. It’s quite a walk from here to the foot of Green Peak Mountain; we need to eat and rest early so that we can be well-prepared."

Susu quickly left the room, but after some time she ran back in: "Our food is ready! Let's go out and eat!"

Zhao Yujì stepped out of her room and followed Susu to the courtyard where there were already two men sitting at a table eating. These two men should be those who lived in the other room; they didn’t seem to be too old, both around their thirties.

When these two men saw Su Su and Zhao Yujì come out, they also cast their gazes toward them. One of them happened to have a piece of meat on his chopsticks; when he saw Zhao Yujì’s appearance, he was instantly stunned, causing the meat to fall onto the table.

"Ignore them, one of them claims to be a photographer and the other says he's a painter; both are just secretive types." Susu glanced at those two people with disdain and whispered to Zhao Yujie.

Zhao Yujie naturally didn't care about these two. She was feeling hungry since she hadn't eaten anything from morning till now, and walking such a long distance had taken a toll on her, though not as much as it would have for an ordinary girl. Right now, the most pressing matter for her was to eat.

"This is rabbit meat, and this one supposedly is tiger meat—I don't know if that's true—and there seems to be some kind of wild vegetable over here; it’s a bit bitter but has a unique flavor. Try it; you won’t find these dishes outside…" Susu introduced the dishes on the table to Zhao Yujie as though she were the host.

Zhao Yujie picked up a piece of the wild vegetable and put it in her mouth, finding that its taste was indeed quite good—though somewhat bitter, the bitterness added flavor. As for what they said was tiger meat, after tasting it, Zhao Yujie realized that it wasn't actually tiger meat but rather meat from an animal she hadn’t tried before. She had actually tasted real tiger meat before.

Zhao Yujie ate quite a lot during this dinner. On one hand, she was very hungry, and on the other, these dishes were mostly new to her palate, which made her appetite increase greatly. When they finished eating, it was already almost dark outside; in such mountain villages, once night falls, there's hardly any light around. Fortunately, tonight had a moon, so it wasn’t completely pitch black outdoors.

Zhao Yujì was standing outside at the moment, looking up at the moon in the sky. The wind was quite strong that evening; there were no car sounds to be heard, but instead one could hear the howling of mountain winds, creating a unique atmosphere.

"Wow, you're not afraid of the cold at all! In such windy conditions, are you really just standing outside" Susu emerged from inside and shivered slightly. "We can warm up by the fire in the kitchen. Shall we go over there"

"No need, you go ahead." Zhao Yujì shook her head. She was indeed not afraid of the cold; martial artists usually didn't feel the cold as acutely as ordinary people.

"Alright then... I can’t take it anymore. I'll be heading in now. Hey Rainy Sister, why don’t you come inside after a while It’s best to get some rest early since we need to go hiking tomorrow." Susu quickly said this and hurriedly ran back in, as the temperature had dropped significantly by nightfall, making it unbearable for her.

Susu hid from the cold, but someone with an excess of hormones causing their body heat to rise came out instead: "Miss, have we met before You look so familiar!"

"You might have seen me, but I definitely haven't seen you." Zhao Yujie didn't turn her head and said indifferently.

"Miss, my name is Han Xing. I am a photographer. I plan to take a series of photos for an international photography contest. Would Miss be interested in being my model" This guy seemed not to notice Zhao Yujie's cold attitude at all and still wanted to get close to her. It was quite normal actually, as any man would want to chat up a beauty like Zhao Yujie wherever she went.

"No interest." Without turning around, Zhao Yujie replied briefly.

Feeling somewhat awkward, Han Xing still wasn't giving up: "Then, Miss, how shall I address you"

"Mr. Han, I am here to relax and do not wish for anyone to disturb me. I have no interest in getting to know you or having any so-called affair with you. Therefore, it is best if you don't come over to seek your own embarrassment." Zhao Yujie's tone was somewhat cold.he President of the country, don’t think for one second that we would let Xie Aiguo go with you!""Then have your chief come out here!"
