Chapter 240 Trapped in the Mountains



Regardless of whether it is the Shen family she knows, she has to get the admission ticket now.

And even if it’s not the Shen family, the East City Military Region’s family compound is enough. What if I happen to meet some soldier?

When she thought of this, Gao Menglan immediately sat up straight. Her expression was no longer as high and mighty as before. She put on a humble and smiling face and said, "Comrade Zhou, you are joking. We are from the same crew. How can you not send it to me?"

Zhou Yunwan could see her intentions and couldn't help but sneer. She casually tucked the hair around her ears and asked in surprise, "Aren't you afraid of being sold out by me?"

This sentence made Gao Menglan's face twitch and she couldn't speak for a long time.

Zhao Tong, who was standing by, came to her senses and couldn't help but chuckle. Although she was also surprised that Zhou Yunwan's in-laws were so powerful, seeing Gao Menglan being humiliated made her feel both amused and relieved.

Gao Menglan laughed awkwardly for a while, then said with a stiff face, "Haha, I was just joking. Comrade Zhou is not so petty that he can't even take a joke, right?"

"Comrade Gao, no matter how I look at it, I don't think our relationship is good enough for such a joke, right?"

"You sent invitations to everyone but not to me. Aren't you targeting me on purpose?"

...

...

Zhou Yunwan ignored her provocation and glanced at her up and down several times, staring at her so hard that Gao Menglan felt uncomfortable all over.

After a long while, Zhou Yunwan smiled meaningfully and said indifferently, "This is the first time I know that people can be so shameless."

"You!" Gao Menglan suddenly stood up from the chair, with a vicious expression as if she was about to take action.

Just in case, Zhao Tong also stood up. Zhou Yunwan, on the other hand, was very calm: "What's wrong with me?"

The dispute between the two attracted a lot of attention, and the staff who were working behind the scenes also looked over to them, including Cheng Jinche who was discussing something with the assistant director.

Cheng Jinche walked over in two or three steps, frowned and asked, "What are you doing? Why are you arguing?"

Zhou Yunwan greeted him and said with a smile, "You'll have to ask Comrade Gao about this."

After spending some time together, as soon as Cheng Jinche saw her foxy smile, he knew that someone was going to be in trouble, and obviously, the one who was in trouble was Gao Menglan.

When they first met, he thought Zhou Yunwan was just a rose with thorns. After knowing each other for a long time, he realized that the thorns were not something he could break off.

Cheng Jinche's mind was wandering as he looked at Gao Menglan, whose face was red with anger. His brows furrowed even more. Why was she causing trouble again?

Gao Menglan is a troublemaker, but she has a good relationship with Fang Lingxin. If it weren't for Fang Lingxin's face, he would have replaced her long ago.

Although Cheng Jinche didn't say anything else, anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was getting a little impatient.

Gao Menglan pinched her palms, glared at Zhou Yunwan, said it was nothing, then turned and left.

Without Gao Menglan, the atmosphere in the small windproof greenhouse became much more harmonious.

The heavy snow was still falling outside, and Zhou Yunwan asked Cheng Jinche: "Director Cheng, when will the snow stop?"

Cheng Jinche paused as he was about to leave and replied, "The village chief said it would take about a week, and the road will probably not be open until half a month later."

Zhou Yunwan's eyes suddenly widened, and she said in disbelief, "So long?"

She thought it would only rain for two or three days at most, and she had said so when she reported to Chen Yanli. What if Chen Yanli came directly to pick her up?

No, she had to call Shen Yanli as soon as she returned to the village.

Thinking of this, she then asked, "When can I return to the village?"

There are mostly plains in the north, and they finally found a mountain of some height about ten kilometers away from Chenjiagou. After shooting this part, the filming is over, so a group of more than a dozen people are now shooting in the old forest.

Cheng Jinche moved his lips and was about to speak when someone hurriedly ran in from outside.

"Director Cheng, it's bad. The road leading into the mountain has collapsed and is completely buried by snow and rocks."

These words were like a thunderclap, exploding in the hearts of everyone in the shed.

There was silence for a moment, and everyone fell into panic.

"how so?"

"If that road collapses, is there another way?"

"We're not going to be trapped here, are we?"

You and I were talking at the same time, and the whole place became a mess.

In the end, it was Cheng Jinche who spoke up to stabilize the situation: "Don't worry, I'll take two people to take a look. Don't run around during this time."

After saying these words, he said to Zhou Yunwan before leaving: "Comrade Zhou, please help me watch over this place."

Zhou Yunwan nodded, signaling him to go without worry.

The sudden accident made everyone feel a little more panicked about the unknown situation, but the only thing they could do now was to wait to avoid unnecessary trouble.

It gets dark quickly in winter, and coupled with the bad weather, it’s already evening by around 4 p.m.

The staff who had packed up their things outside also entered the shed together. The originally spacious space suddenly became crowded.

I don't know how much time has passed, someone suddenly whispered: "Has anyone seen Gao Menglan? She just went out and hasn't come back yet. Did something happen to her?"

Her companion consoled her: "Don't be scary, okay? Maybe she's just walking around."

But it was such a cold day, how could Gao Menglan, who was always lazy, go out for so long?

Zhou Yunwan had a bad feeling in her heart and was about to suggest going out to look for them when Cheng Jinche finally came back with the people who had gone out to explore the way.

As soon as they appeared, everyone immediately forgot about Gao Menglan and started asking about the situation.

Cheng Jinche said solemnly: "The snow fell more heavily than we thought. It is estimated that the accumulated snow crushed the big trees on the hillside, causing the entire slope to collapse, and that section of the road was blocked."

"We tried to get out from another place, but we were not familiar with the road conditions and it was late, so there was nothing we could do..."

At this point, he paused and said with difficulty: "We probably have to stay here for the whole night."

Zhou Yunwan understood what he meant. It was unrealistic to save themselves immediately in the current situation. They could only wait for rescue from the outside world. If they didn't return to Chenjiagou for a long time, the village chief would definitely realize the problem and would send someone to find them.

Or wait until tomorrow morning and find another way out.

It is very cold in the mountains at night, and the first priority is to ensure warmth. Cheng Jinche asked people to distribute thick costumes to everyone, so that they can cover themselves or put on them to prevent anyone from getting frostbite. Firewood and other things also had to be prepared.

After Zhou Yunwan finished his instructions, she called him aside and said, "Director Cheng, there is something I need to tell you. Gao Menglan seems to be missing."
