After a while, she stopped at the edge of the wasteland and did not move.
No one expected that there was a large area of very bright flowers blooming in the forest, colorful and pink.
There was also a large patch of bamboo nearby, with many slender and flexible vines winding on the ground.
Ruan Qingqing bent down and looked carefully. After a while, she really found several fresh traces of being broken.
She picked up one of the thin vines and said to Chen Muyun excitedly, "Zeng Xi has been here! I saw the same flowers in her room, and a bundle of vines!"
Chen Muyun also laughed and said, "Let's look for it again! Let's see if we can find anything else!"
However, they found no evidence that Zeng Xi had been there elsewhere. However, a path was discovered through some tall grass.
It was only about the width of a car, with black gravel visible on the road, but green grass had grown on it.
There was also a section of old and rusty railway piles across the intersection - this was an abandoned and blocked road.
At first glance, the upward mountain road turns not far away and nothing can be seen.
Chen Muyun looked at Ruan Qingqing: "Do you still want to go up?"
"right."
Chen Muyun grabbed her arm and said, "This place is closed. We don't know what's going on up there. It might be a dangerous road. We'd better not go there."
Ruan Qingqing pointed at the black gravel road and said, "Look carefully, there are traces of wheels running over it. That car drove up there."
Chen Muyun didn't think this meant anything. He couldn't help but speak to her in the same tone as usual. He said, "Be obedient. Safety first. Go back and wait. Maybe Zeng Xi will be able to get through on the phone, or maybe she'll come back."
Ruan Qingqing pulled her arm out of his hand and said, "Don't I know it's rash to go there like this? It might even be dangerous. But now no one is looking for Zeng Xi, not even the people at the center, not even her parents, and the police won't file a case. I always have a feeling that if even I give up on her, she will never come back."
Chen Muyun actually felt that she was overthinking it. He didn't think there would be any risks in continuing to move forward, except for the road conditions.
He said, "Okay, you can go up if you want, but you have to come with me."
He picked up the broken road bollard and threw it to the side of the road, then drove over and said, "Get in the car."
Ruan Qingqing stood still for a moment, got into the car, and said, "The road is not easy to travel on, so be careful."
Chen Muyun's heart warmed up at this point, and he said, "Do you think you don't know how stable I am? Don't worry."
Soon after their car drove onto the path, a taxi also slowly drove up.
The taxi stopped at the entrance to this black gravel road.
The driver said, "Beauty, we really can't go any further. There is no road ahead."
Ruan Qingling looked around and didn't find the two familiar cars, so he stared at the black road and said, "Isn't there still a road here?"
"How can I drive on this road? It's all deserted. Don't scratch my car. I won't drive! Hey, pretty girl, who was that person in the car we were in just now? Was it your boyfriend? You're not here to catch a mistress, are you?"
Ruan Qingling sneered: "Yes, I'm here to catch the mistress." She paid the fare, left the driver's phone number, and asked him to go down the mountain first.
Ruan Qingling didn't know what Chen Muyun and Ruan Qingqing were doing in this desolate mountain area.
But the secretive whereabouts of the two made her jealous, but also gave her a vague sense of prying pleasure.
Although she didn't know what would happen or what she could do.
But she had a hunch: she must not let the two of them reconcile, success or failure depended on today.
Although Ruan Qingling felt a little scared standing in this silent mountain range, but thinking that Chen Muyun and she were just ahead, she quickly walked up along the path.
——
That day, Luo Pingjiang got up early in the morning as usual, ran ten kilometers along the river, went home to take a shower and have breakfast. The morning routine is his alone time, reading, doing work and accounts, etc.
But today, after reading a book for a while, he put it down again, looked out the window for a while, picked up his phone and turned to Ruan Qingqing's WeChat.
The two of them only had one chat record, which was the day they were in the hospital. Ruan Qingqing added him and said: I am Ruan Qingqing.
Luo Pingjiang stared at this sentence for a long time, and finally sent a message: Are you okay?
After the call from Chen Muyun yesterday, he could only ask these three words.
After a while, there was no reply.
Luo Pingjiang was about to put down his phone when suddenly, a rapid ring rang out. It was Ruan Qingqing calling. His heart suddenly warmed up, and he immediately picked up the phone, carefully saying, "Qingqing?"
On the other end of the phone, there were sounds of wind, breathing, and some vague noises, but no voice.
Luo Pingjiang was stunned.
The phone was suddenly hung up.
Luo Pingjiang immediately called again, but the phone was turned off.
