Chapter 77



"No wonder you don't have enough money to spend every month. It turns out that all the money is thrown at your face." Ye Twelve nodded seriously. Ninth sister's salary plus the money given by her family is at least seven figures, but it is often not enough to spend, and she has to ask her for support!

"You are still young and don't understand at all. When a woman reaches her twenties, her skin will start to become rough. If she doesn't start taking care of herself now, she will become dark and ugly after she reaches 30. Oh~ I don't want to become like that!" Ye Jiu shuddered. She couldn't imagine that she would become like that in the future!

So I applied the cream to my face more vigorously, hoping that it would be better absorbed by the skin.

"Wow! Ninth sister, look, the snow on Genting Mountain is so thick? Many of my classmates have been there to see it, but my mother won't let me go, saying it's very dangerous!" Ye Twelve couldn't understand. It was just a Genting Mountain. What was so dangerous about it? She had gone there with her friends before when the snow was not so heavy, and they all came back safely, right?

"Since my aunt said it's dangerous, then you shouldn't go. It's so cold in the mountains, it's not as good as home!" Because it was too cold, Ye Jiu took a leave of absence from work for half a month. However, it was the Ye family's company, so she would get her salary whether she went or not.

So why not just stay home? If you're really bored, go shopping—that's so much better! Why bother going up the mountain? It's said that regular cars can't even get up there now. Only the bus drivers who run that route year-round can get halfway up. You have to climb the rest of the way up yourself.

Thinking about the freezing cold weather and climbing alone on a seemingly endless mountain road, how desperate it must be!

However, fourteen or fifteen years old is a rebellious age. If you don't ask her to go, she will find ways to go!

The next day, Ye Shier sneaked out while the adults at home were still asleep, ready to go alone to see what the snow-covered Yunding Mountain looked like!

At this moment, Ye Twelve, who slipped to the ground, regretted it most. She especially regretted not listening to her ninth sister. Wasn't the heating at home nice? Why did she have to come out and suffer like this?

"Are you okay?" Ling Xiaoxiao just came up and saw a person lying on the ground. He was not big and was wearing a thick coat. He tried hard to get up, but because he was too clumsy in his clothes, he slipped down again as soon as he stood up!

She held Ye Twelve's arm to help her stand up, and carefully helped her stand steadily. Only then did Ling Xiaoxiao see clearly that this was a little girl in her teens.

"Thank you, sister! If it weren't for you, I might have frozen to death here!" Ye Jiu was really grateful to the person who helped her up, because she walked slowly and the people who came with her had already walked far away, and she was the last one!

If it weren't for this sister who helped her up, she might have died here! She now understood why her mother said this place was dangerous. It turned out to be really dangerous!

"It's not that exaggerated. There are people coming up behind us. Let's go quickly and go to the villa above to warm up!" Although Ling Xiaoxiao didn't want to drag others down, seeing that the little girl seemed unable to walk alone, she couldn't bear it and supported her all the way.

Not far away, a group of people were also going up the mountain behind them. Chen Jue was wearing a black coat and looking at the people in front with focused eyes.

Although she had changed her clothes and hairstyle and was wearing a mask on her face, he still recognized his little girl at a glance. He didn't know why they had to leave and even threw away the people who were protecting her. Since that was the case, they would just follow behind quietly so that if anything happened, they could protect her first!

The people in front stopped and gathered together, talking about something. Ling Xiaoxiao supported Ye Jiu and followed them.

"Didn't we say it would take more than ten minutes? Why are we still in the woods?" asked a girl in a down jacket.

"I've been to Genting Mountain before, and it takes no time to walk through the woods. I looked at the time when I first entered the woods, it was half past eleven, and now it's fifteen past twelve! But we're still in the woods!" said another man in a windbreaker.

"Could it be a 'ghost wall'? But where would those things be in broad daylight?" the man in the black down jacket said weakly.

Ling Xiaoxiao looked at the mountain road that was partially hidden from view. Could it be the thing that warned her about this? But wouldn't it be visible only to her? Why could everyone see it now?

"Sister, don't be afraid. There are no such things in Yunding Mountain. They are talking nonsense!" Ye Jiu saw Ling Xiaoxiao frowning and thought that she was frightened by what they said, so she leaned close to Ling Xiaoxiao's ear and whispered.

"I'm not scared. Are you from S City? Didn't they say that the locals have seen enough of the snow scenery of Genting Mountain?" Hearing the little girl's familiarity with Genting Mountain, Ling Xiaoxiao asked in confusion. When the snow just started to fall, people from S City had already brought their families to see it, so the people coming now are all tourists from outside.

"I wanted to come here before, but my mother wouldn't let me, saying it was too dangerous up there. Today I snuck out while the family members were still asleep!" Ye Jiu said a little embarrassedly. After all, it was a bit embarrassing to tell others that he had sneaked out!

How did her mother know it was dangerous up there? Was it a mother's intuition? Ling Xiaoxiao was a little confused.

"What should we do now? Should we turn back?" the girl in the down jacket said somewhat collapsedly.

"The way we went up the mountain is gone." said a man in black wearing sunglasses.

Ling Xiaoxiao, who was standing at the end, turned her head and looked at the road she had just walked on. The snow had stopped. Logically, so many people going up the mountain would have left a trail of footprints, but the snow behind them perfectly covered the road surface, as if no one had stepped on it!

"How could this happen?" Ye Jiu looked at the disappearing footprints in disbelief. They had clearly come up step by step, so why did the footprints disappear?

"It's not disappeared, it's covered by the snow on the trees." Ling Xiaoxiao looked up at the branches that were covered with snow just now, but now there is no snow at all!

"The question is, did any of us hear the sound of snow falling?" the man with black glasses continued.

This is the weird part. The trees are very high above the ground, and the snow falling to the ground would make some noise, but with so many people here, no one heard any sound of falling snow!

Ye Jiu was also a little confused. Why did Yunding Mountain become such a terrible place? She had come to Yunding Mountain every year since she was a child, but she always went up the mountain safely and came back safely! She had never heard of anyone encountering such a thing in Yunding Mountain! Something must have gone wrong for this to happen. Yunding Mountain was not like this before!
