Chapter 276 A Super Cool Way to Go Down the Mountain
Murong Ting said frankly, "I saw you sneaking around hiding something on the plane. I thought you were burying a love token for some random guy behind my back. Who knew that when I dug it up after landing, it turned out to be a broken ginseng."
He actually called a century-old wild ginseng a broken wild ginseng.
How utterly clueless about romance!
Kong Wange rolled her eyes at him, snatched the box from her arms and hid it in her bosom, then climbed the soft ladder and boarded the plane first.
Murong Ting was tying Chen Ge up with a safety rope below, his eyes cold: "Kid, you'd better keep what you saw today to yourself. If you dare to tell anyone, I have a thousand ways to kill you. Do you understand?"
Although Chen Ge didn't understand what was going on between Murong Ting and Boss Kong, he was indeed a little afraid of the man in front of him, so he quickly nodded and assured him, "I-I understand!"
Murong Ting patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction: "Very good, kid, good luck!"
With a turn of his head, he boarded the plane in a few quick movements.
Upon seeing Murong Ting come aboard, Kong Wange frowned: "Murong Ting, this helicopter looks quite spacious. You're not deliberately preventing Chen Ge from getting on, are you?"
Murong Ting looked at Kong Wange with a hurt expression: "Wanwan, what kind of person do you take me for? I didn't even know him before. Was it necessary to make things difficult for him?"
Kong Wange thought about it and agreed, then coughed lightly: "I was just asking, you don't need to take it too seriously."
Murong Ting sighed: "It's alright, I'm used to you not trusting me."
Kong Wange: "..."
Helpless, she tentatively asked again, "Since it's so spacious, why don't we call Chen Ge up so the three of us can squeeze in?"
Murong Ting sat down next to her. Seeing that she had actually listened to his advice and was wearing a pale yellow dress, he felt a little excited, but said seriously, "Wanwan, no matter how spacious it looks, it's still a two-seater. If you put one more person in it, it's overloading, which is illegal and not safe either."
Kong Wange had never been in a helicopter before and didn't quite understand the regulations. After hearing what he said, she felt that it made some sense and didn't say anything more.
Although Lin Cheng, who was in the driver's seat, knew that his boss was just making things up, he didn't dare to say anything. Seeing that everyone was ready, he turned around and reminded them, "Madam, Young Master Ting, hold on tight, we're leaving!"
On the rope ladder below the plane, Chen Ge, with a safety rope tied around his waist, clung tightly to the ladder with both arms, his eyes closed, not daring to look down at all, and he couldn't help but mutter, "May Guanyin Bodhisattva protect me, may the Jade Emperor and the Queen Mother of the West protect me, may the Heavenly Gods protect me... please protect me, humble little Shen, so that I may land safely!"
"Boom!"
Accompanied by Chen Ge's scream of "Ah—", the helicopter sped down the mountain.
...
Down the mountain, most of the students had already gathered.
Han Fei, accompanied by several teachers, stood in front of the students, glanced at his watch, and asked, "There are five minutes left in the exam. Is anyone still missing?"
"Teacher, Chen Ge and Kong Wange haven't returned yet," Little Orange said anxiously. "Let's wait for them a little longer!"
Upon hearing this, Wen Xiaoxiao immediately sneered, "Wait? Didn't you hear what the teacher said? If you go over time, your score will be invalid. Everyone has the same assessment time. There are only five minutes left. I don't think they'll make it back in time. Going over time to dig for ginseng affects the fairness of the competition. They deserve not to get a score!"
Little Orange was so angry she was trembling: "Shut up! I think it was you who caused this mess, that's why Chen Ge disappeared, and why Sister Kong can't come back with him either?"
Wen Xiaoxiao immediately exclaimed, "Ouch! Zhu Ju, I'm warning you, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. I did something bad? Which eye of yours saw that? I think you're just trying to find an excuse for them to be late and deliberately trying to smear me!"
"You...you're shameless!"
"You're being unreasonable."
Seeing that the two were about to start arguing, Leng Jun pulled Xiao Ju Zi aside and whispered, "Alright, stop arguing. We really don't have any evidence. The most important thing right now is to wait patiently for Chen Ge and Kong Wange to come back."
Little Orange understood, and with tears in her eyes, she said, "But why? We carefully picked ginseng, and they just snatched it away. We worked hard all day, and in the end, our results were invalidated. That's just too unfair!"
Leng Jun's expression was also unpleasant. She patted Xiao Ju Zi's back and said, "Don't worry, what goes around comes around. It's just the beginning. There's plenty of time. The wicked will get their comeuppance sooner or later."
While the two were talking, most of the time had passed.
Han Fei glanced at his watch; there were two minutes left.
Wen Xiaoxiao said impatiently, "Teacher, there are only two minutes left! We still haven't seen a trace of those two. They definitely won't be back. Let's not waste everyone's time. Let's quickly calculate the scores and announce the results!"
Han Fei frowned. Although he disliked Wen Xiaoxiao's chatter, he knew in his heart that she was right.
He quite liked Kong Wange, but he never expected it to turn out like this.
He sighed and said, "Kong Wange and Shen Ge did not return to their teams on time after the exam. According to the exam rules, their results are cancelled..."
"Boom!"
Before he could finish speaking, a cool sound came from the horizon.
Everyone was drawn to the sound and instinctively looked towards the horizon not far away.
"Holy crap, a helicopter!!"
"How come there's a helicopter here? Isn't Mount Ling under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Academy? Can helicopters just come in like that?"
"Mom, look, isn't there someone hanging on the helicopter ladder?!"
"It really is... Who is it...?"
In the blink of an eye, the helicopter had flown overhead and began to descend slowly, eventually hovering a dozen meters above them.
The strong wind made it impossible for anyone to open their eyes.
The next second, the person on the ladder shakily climbed down the rope ladder, and as soon as they landed and untied the safety rope, they ran to the side and vomited.
Then, the helicopter door opened, and a woman in a pale yellow dress stood by the door.
Her hair, which had been tied up, was now down, and the slightly curled strands danced gently in the wind, making her eyes bright and expressive.
The appearance of Chen Ge did not cause much of a stir. Everyone squinted at the sky and exclamations rose and fell.
"Holy crap, isn't that Kong Wange?"
"Really! She actually took a helicopter down the mountain?"
"That entrance was so cool! If you didn't know better, you'd think you were watching a movie!"
"Where did she get a helicopter? Unbelievable!"
Kong Wange was about to get down the rope ladder when, in the next second, a large, well-defined hand reached out from inside the helicopter and grabbed her.
The person was inside the helicopter, and the window was made of privacy glass. From everyone's perspective, they could only see a blurry profile and couldn't make out his face at all, but everyone knew clearly that it was a man.
Not only that, he's also a gentle man!
He stretched out his hands and personally tied a safety rope around Kong Wange's waist.
His posture was intimate, with his arms wrapped around her waist as if he wanted to pull her into his embrace.
