Chapter 47: Just a Game

Jiangcheng is the place they most yearn for and look forward to in this strange city.

Su Mi could only talk to him, and only him.

Of course, Gu Mucheng was the one who could best understand her feelings.

"Qingqing, you must be missing home." Gu Mucheng smiled warmly.

Su Mi didn't comment, just smiled at him.

Gu Muqing said in a gentle tone, "I can take you back."

After hearing this, Su Mi refused without hesitation, "Not now."

"Then when the time is right, we'll go back together."

"Yeah, okay."

The two walked all the way to the bottom of the girls' dormitory. Su Mi waved to him and said, "Then I'll go back first."

"good."

Su Mi had just taken a few steps when Gu Muqing suddenly called her, "Qingqing."

Su Mi turned around and looked at him.

The falling snow blocked their view. Su Mi heard him clearly, "It's just a game. Remember to protect yourself."

After he finished speaking, before she could see his expression clearly, he had already turned and left.

The back figure is bleak and the light and shadow are blurred.

Is he talking about her and Xiao Xuanjin?

Did he guess something?

Su Mi shook his head and went back to the dormitory.

The next day.

It's also Saturday.

Su Mi sent a message to Xiao Xuanjin early in the morning [Where are you now? ]

After waiting for about ten minutes, he replied, "So early."

Then he sent a location, and Su Mi saw that he was indeed no longer in Huacheng.

It should be the villa near the cemetery that the system mentioned.

Just in case, she still asked, "Xiao Xing, is this the villa you mentioned?"

[Yes, host.]

"Then I'd better go quickly."

[Host, how confident are you this time?]

"It's hard to say. Actually, I don't know for sure."

At this point, Su Mi looked down at the small golden bell on his wrist and murmured, "How can it ring..."

The little gorilla was very positive this time. [Host, do you need any props this time?]

Su Mi hadn't decided what to ask for yet. She had another worry. "I'm just worried. What if I go and he kicks me out?"

After all, he had clearly told her not to go to him yesterday.

[Host, how about some self-torture tactics? ]

"What's this self-torture trick? Does it hurt?" Su Mi still remembered that before, when she apologized, her hand was pinched by the door. Although she had the system in her hand, it still hurt a lot at that time.

[Host, although it will be a bit painful, it is the most effective.]

Su Mi thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll endure it in order to go home."

[Host, the mountain road is difficult to walk on. You will fall a few times and get injured. I'm sure he will be very distressed when he sees you.]

Su Mi: “…”

After getting up and packing, Su Mi took a backpack and went to have breakfast, and then set off.

She followed the address Xiao Xuanjin sent her and went to the station to take the high-speed train. About three hours later, she arrived in another city.

Finally, I caught the bus to reach the villa.

Standing at the foot of the mountain, Su Mi looked up and finally understood what the "tactic of inflicting pain on one's own flesh" meant.

The villa is located on the top of a mountain. You need to climb the mountain road and steep slope in front, as well as the branches and vines along the way. It looks very difficult.

Not to mention that it had just snowed and the road was covered with snow, making it even more difficult to walk.

"Xiao Xing, aren't you afraid that I'll die on the road?"

The system replied, "Host, you don't have to actually climb. There's a cable car over there. Take it up. Just remember to heal your wound when you get off."

Su Mi thought about it and felt that this was pretty good.

So she went over, bought a ticket, and took the cable car to the top of the mountain.

With the cable car, the climb that originally took at least several hours was shortened to five minutes.

As soon as he got off the car, Su Mi saw the mysterious villa standing not far from the top of the mountain.

She did not forget what the system said, so she found a secluded place, left a lot of dirt and snow marks on her body, took out a branch, and decided to scratch herself.

But when people can't bring themselves to do it many times, they are always extra kind to themselves.

"Xiao Xing, can you make a fake one?"

[Host, do you want to go home? ]

Su Mi gritted his teeth and was about to take action.

There was a sound of footsteps behind him, "What are you doing?"

When she turned around, she saw a large group of bodyguards wearing sunglasses standing there, looking at her as if she were an intruder.

"Who are you? Who let you up here?"

Su Mi realized that this was private property and was afraid that she would be under surveillance as soon as she entered.

What she did just now... I don't dare to think about it.

System, you're a jerk...

Little Ape: [Host, I can hear your voice.]

Su Mi rolled his eyes.

He looked at the bodyguard standing in the front and said, "I'm looking for Xiao Xuanjin, is he here?"

The leading bodyguard looked her up and down and said, "Young Master is not seeing anyone today. You can go back."

Su Mi pleaded, "Can you please be flexible? I'm his friend."

"It's sneaky, I don't think it's something a friend would do."

Su Mi wanted to say something else.

The bodyguards didn't want to hear any more. "If you don't leave now, we'll have to escort you out ourselves."

"Wait, I'll call him."

Su Mi could only take out his cell phone. His self-torture trick couldn't work, so he called Xiao Xuanjin.

Fortunately, he answered the call.

She deliberately spoke loudly so that the bodyguards could hear, "I came to see you, but the bodyguards wanted to chase me away."

"There?"

"Top of the mountain."

“…”

Seeing that she was really calling the young master, the bodyguards did not dare to act rashly.

After a long while, Xiao Xuanjin on the other end of the phone finally spoke, "Give them the phone."

Su Mi quickly handed the phone to the leading bodyguard.

The man took it and put it to his ear. Xiao Xuanjin said something on the other end and then hung up the phone.

The bodyguard immediately returned the phone to her, his attitude completely changed, and he bowed respectfully, "Ms. Su, please."

Su Mi followed them inside.

In his mind, he was still talking to Xiao Xing, "That's great! I think Xiao Xuanjin must be very angry."

[Host, I was negligent. It's definitely not that easy to enter the Xiao family's territory.]

"I think I'll be scolded by Xiao Xuanjin soon."

[Host, don't be discouraged. Since he let you in, there will definitely be no problem.]

"What I'm most worried about is... my actions just now. I'm afraid they've been captured by surveillance cameras."

If Xiao Xuanjin knew about this, the consequences would be unimaginable.

[Host, I'm going to hack into their system to see if I can delete the surveillance.]

Then the little gorilla fell silent, probably because he was out doing something.

Su Mi and his bodyguard had already entered the villa, walking along the bluestone path. As soon as they entered, they saw a large area of lush bamboo. It was conceivable how much effort it took to grow green bamboo in such a cold place.

There is also a renovated pavilion with a stone table and stone benches for the owner to rest and enjoy the scenery.

The buildings of the villa in the distance stand in front of the back mountain, magnificent and solemn. Looking at it, it looks like a fairyland far away from this world.

Su Mi was not interested in watching, thinking about how to deal with Xiao Xuanjin later, when he heard a voice from the system: "Host, bad, the invasion failed, the video may already be in Xiao Xuanjin's hands."
