C98

After chatting for a while, the dishes were served.

After the meal, it was time to part ways.

The Crane Forest offered to send Dong Xiaoxiao back. However, she rejected him. The Crane Forest didn't insist and directly waved at her with a smile, as if nothing out of the ordinary had happened …

But it would be strange if there was nothing abnormal! Previously, he would have sent her home no matter what he said!

Dong Xiaoxiao was baffled. She scratched her head as she looked at the departing figure of Crane Forest.

However, there was no need for her to think any further. It was almost dark, so she quickly turned around and returned home.

This week passed quickly, and on Saturday, Dong Xiaoxiao took the initiative to go to He Lin's house to find him. Since he had a car, she decided to directly squeeze this rich young master who had been rich for several generations into her family.

Dong Xiaoxiao rang the doorbell. Soon, the door was opened from the inside — —

Dong Xiaoxiao was shocked, because the person who came out was not the crane forest, but... An unfamiliar woman.

"You are …?"

Dong Xiaoxiao asked the woman but the woman didn't answer. She stood behind the door and looked at her without any hesitation. She looked her up and down several times and said, "Are you Dong Xiaoxiao?" Xiao Lin and I have been waiting for you since early in the morning.

Dong Xiaoxiao was frightened by her and replied, "I …" "I came by bus and waited at the stop sign a bit longer, so …"

"Hmph, if you're late again, don't blame us for not waiting for you." The woman coldly snorted, turned around and walked in after she finished speaking, and no longer paid any attention to her.

Dong Xiaoxiao felt surprised and relieved. She looked at the open door and walked in after a moment's hesitation.

Inside the room, he saw Dong Xiaoxiao coming in and greeted her with a smile. He then introduced the woman sitting next to him.

"Xiaoxiao, this is my …"

But before he finished, the woman beside him interrupted him, "Ahem, hello, I'm Xiao Lin's new girlfriend. You can call me Ling An, it's a pleasure to meet you, Dong Xiaoxiao."

Dong Xiaoxiao was shocked. She looked at the Crane Forest and then at Ling An. After a long while, she finally found her voice. "You …" Hello, if I'm disturbing you today, I really... "Sorry."

She mainly looked at Ling An and saw that she seemed to be very hostile towards him. She awkwardly smiled and repeatedly emphasized that she was only here to find the Crane Forest for help. In the future, she would come and disturb them less.

However, she secretly cursed in her heart. She never thought that the Crane Forest would actually find a girlfriend. She really didn't know what was good for her to come here and ask for his help … However, the crane forest didn't want to tell her in advance. This way, she could prepare for it.

As Dong Xiaoxiao thought this, she felt relieved. While she was talking, she secretly raised her eyebrows at Lin. It seemed that she was happy for him.

But what she didn't expect was that after she finished explaining, that Ling An seemed to be even more angry and told He Lin to stop looking for her after helping her. He Lin was helpless and wanted to say something, but was strongly rejected by Ling An.

He Lin couldn't finish his breakfast, so he put down his chopsticks and left, but he didn't expect that Ling An would also want to follow them.

Dong Xiaoxiao originally thought it would be too dangerous, especially if she brought a helpless girl with her. However, after knowing that she had some tricks up her sleeve, she didn't care anymore. However, she felt like she was about to make a 5000 watt bulb …

Her feelings soon came true. The Crane Forest couldn't turn away from Ling An, so there were three people on the road – Dong Xiaoxiao, Lin Lin, Ling An.

He Lin didn't seem very happy. He kept pulling his face, but he drove steadily towards Dong Xiaoxiao's hometown.

Dong Xiaoxiao and Ling An sat in the back and ignored each other at first. Afterwards, Dong Xiaoxiao casually found a topic to talk to her. Ling An seemed very bored, so the two started chatting.

"My family and the He Lin Clan have been friends since we were young. We grew up together, so when we were free, we would also spar with each other to improve our relationship … Since we were young, Crane Lin and I have a good relationship. We have already arranged for a marriage, and after he graduates, he will marry me and go home. "

"Hahaha …" Then your relationship is really good, I wish you all the best! "

As they chatted awkwardly along the way, Dong Xiaoxiao complained to Lin in her heart. Since their family had already arranged a marriage, why did they come to find her?

But she didn't say it out loud, because what she was upset about wasn't that the Crane Lin hadn't told her about this girl, but that … If she had known earlier, she would have let out a sigh of relief!

However, this Ling An was too arrogant. He looked like he wasn't easy to get along with, but he didn't expect to be even harder to get along with.

Now, Dong Xiaoxiao and Ling An were awkwardly chatting with each other while the Crane Forest was in front. They didn't say a word. The two women couldn't continue chatting after a while, so the car became quiet again.

Dong Xiaoxiao soon arrived at her village. However, they didn't stop and directly went to the back of the mountain.

It was daytime now, so logically speaking, even if there were ghosts in the mountain, they wouldn't come out. Even if they were forced out under the suppression of the sun, they wouldn't be too powerful.

He wasn't sure if he was mistaken, but this time on the mountain, Dong Xiaoxiao didn't feel the same strong sense of danger as last time. Instead, she felt … It was as if there was nothing left on the mountain. It was very quiet.

The Crane Forest and Ling An also noticed it. They confirmed the location to Dong Xiaoxiao in confusion. After getting a definite answer, the three then started to climb the mountain.

Dong Xiaoxiao led the way, and Lin Lin and Ling An followed.

The road up the mountain was not as difficult as they had imagined. After all, Dong Xiaoxiao's village had been hunting and chopping in the mountains for generations. Dong Xiaoxiao had been up there with her father many times when she was young, so she was very familiar with the road up the mountain.

However, since there were ghosts in the mountain, they couldn't do anything on the main road. Thus, they didn't take the main road. Some of the more hidden and strange places they saw, they would carefully go and investigate.

As for why they had to search everywhere, they didn't need any props, such as Dong Xiaoxiao's compass … Dong Xiaoxiao took out the compass very early in the morning, but it was completely useless. Almost every time she walked a bit, the needle of the compass would change direction. They didn't know which way to go, so they had to look around.

However, this aimless search was really time-consuming and exhausting. The three of them arrived at the foot of the mountain before noon and searched all afternoon without finding anything unusual. Seeing that it was about to get dark, they could only pack up and find a cave to spend the night there.
