Xu Rubao frowned slightly. Why did he tell her he was going on a business trip? And he even said he would be gone for several days and asked her to come back to the Xu family home for the weekend.

What does it mean that he's here again?

Xu Rubao was filled with doubt. Just then, the driver stopped the car. "Miss, is this where I get off?"

"No, please follow the car in front."

Xu Rubao pursed her lips slightly. She wanted to follow him and see if Lu Jingheng was lying to her.

Perhaps she was just overthinking it; Lu Jingheng might simply be having social engagements, and there wasn't any secret he was hiding from her.

Xu Rubao couldn't help but tighten his belt and become nervous.

The difference between her and Lu Jingheng was too great, and she always felt insecure.

Sometimes, I can't help but overthink.

Half an hour later, Xu Rubao saw the car drive into Qiwu Mountain, and her heart tightened.

Why would he come here? Could it be that he has already revealed the matter of Qiwu Mountain and wants to go into the mountain to find evidence?

After a while, the driver saw that the sky was starting to darken, so he slowed down. "Miss, do you still want to follow me? I don't plan to go into Qiwu Mountain, and I advise you not to go in either."

Because it's almost the 15th, and there's been a rumor going around Qiwu Mountain.

He didn't know if it was true or not, but he didn't have the courage to go in. He had to leave before dark; saving his life was the most important thing.

Xu Rubao hesitated for a moment, then said, "I'll get off here, driver. Here's your money."

The driver took the money from her hand, looked at the pretty girl, and couldn't help but add, "Miss, Qiwu Mountain isn't safe at night. Are you sure you don't want to come with me? Once it gets dark, there are basically no more cars coming in. I advise you to think it through."

Xu Rubao's heart was trembling the whole time she arrived here.

However, she had already encountered the most terrifying thing: the "what's the use of trying" mentality.

"Thank you, but no need."

Xu Rubao steeled her heart; she also wanted to know if Lu Jingheng was going to find evidence.

If that's really the case, he doesn't even need to look for her; she'll just confess directly.

This matter had been weighing on her mind like a heavy stone, causing her great pain.

"The sooner you die, the sooner you'll be reborn," Xu Rubao thought, and continued walking along the road.

At this time, the sky had not completely darkened. Although she was scared, the thought that Lu Jingheng was also inside reduced her fear somewhat.

However, she got lost again after a short while.

There are several roads leading into the mountains, but the paved roads are gone, leaving only dirt mountain paths.

She didn't know which path to take, so she just chose one based on her gut feeling, and she didn't know if it was the right one.

As darkness began to fall, Xu Rubao couldn't help but feel nervous.

She began to regret her impulsive actions.

She took out her phone and instinctively dialed Lu Jingheng's number.

Even if he knows the truth and doesn't want to be with her, he's here, so at least he won't just stand by and watch her die.

The call was made, but it was discovered that the cell phone had no signal in the forest.

Xu Rubao frowned slightly. Oh well, let's just go back the way we came.

She had already made up her mind. There was no need for Lu Jingheng to secretly investigate this matter; she would confess to him personally tomorrow.

Xu Rubao put her phone away, worried that the battery would run out soon.

At least when you're outside, there's a signal, so you can use your phone to call for help.

However, without realizing it, she found herself back at the ancient castle that haunted her nightmares...
