"Wow—" Standing on the hilltop, facing the already set sun, Nong Xuele cheered with her arms raised, "We’re finally out—"

Having just sealed off the entire passage, you crawled up from the ditch, and Wu Qiyi immediately handed you a water bottle, asking with concern, "Exhausted, aren’t you?"

"I’m okay."

Concern filled Wu Qiyi’s eyes, "You, you’ve always pushed yourself too hard ever since you were little. If you say you’re okay, that means you’re really tired."

You laughed, unscrewed the cap, and began to drink water on your own.

At that moment, Dong Fangxiao walked over and said to you, "The mission is accomplished, and it’s about time for me to leave."

"Sister Dong, are you leaving so soon? I still want to hang out with you for a few more days," Nong Xuele said to Dong Fangxiao with a cheeky smile.

"Next time," Dong Fangxiao looked at you and said with a smile, "Call me again if there’s another job like this. I’m really satisfied with the commission this time, and I can finally take a nice, comfortable break."

You looked at Dong Fangxiao and asked, "You’re not going back to Yuhang with us?"

"My home isn’t in Yuhang, and staying in a hotel there isn’t worth it." Saying this, Dong Fangxiao turned to Wu Qiyi, "Miss Wu, as a gift for this mission, how about I take these pieces of equipment with me?"

Wu Qiyi nodded slightly; she didn’t care about these trivial things at all.

"Lucky you, I want some too."

"What use do you have for this junk when you can’t even hit the center of a fifty-meter target?" Dong Fangxiao snorted with laughter and strode away under the gaze of the three of you.

"We should go too." You turned to look at Wu Qiyi, who nodded in agreement, and you followed the path back to the manor.

When you arrived back at the manor, people from Luanfeng Pavilion had been waiting for a while; without lingering there, the three of you immediately took a car to the Hilton Hotel in Chang’an City.

After a long day of exertion, you, feeling fatigued, took a quick hot shower. As you walked out of the bathroom comfortably wrapped in a towel, you were suddenly startled!

"Hm?"

There was someone sitting in your room, a stunningly beautiful woman dressed in soft pajamas.

With her back to you at that moment, her long, shiny black hair cascaded down her shoulders, her figure graceful and full of charm.

"How did you get here?"

You didn’t expect to see Wu Qiyi in your room and couldn’t help but ask.

"I was bored, so I thought I’d come and chat with you," she said casually.

You pursed your lips, standing somewhat awkwardly at the bathroom doorway, not feeling quite right to walk over, "You should at least wait for me to get dressed before you come to chat, right?"

Wu Qiyi turned her head and looked at you, a faint smile on her intoxicating face, seemingly giving you a casual glance, her eyes smiling, "I have seen your body before."

"Nonsense, when have you ever seen my body?"

Hearing Wu Qiyi say that, you reacted as if you had stepped on a tail, quickly retorting.

Wu Qiyi chuckled, her smile carrying a youthful charm, "When we were kids, we used to bathe together."

Oh no!

You had forgotten about that!

However, even though she said that, you still grabbed some clothes from the bed and hurried back into the bathroom to change.

When you came out of the bathroom, you found Wu Qiyi already standing on the balcony. The evening breeze fluttered the curtains and also tenderly brushed her flowing hair, as would a lover.

For some reason, from your angle, you suddenly found Wu Qiyi’s silhouette to be exceptionally lonely.

"Are you worried about your illness?"

You approached her and asked softly.

She shook her head slightly, "I’m just thinking about something."

"What are you thinking about?" You moved next to Wu Qiyi, placed your hands on the railing just like her, and turned to look at her profile, which you knew you’d never be able to forget.

"If I died, would you be sad?"

"Tsk! Tsk tsk tsk! What are you saying, spit it out!" You jumped up hastily, looking at her seriously, "Comrade Wu Qiyi, I’m telling you solemnly right now, I don’t want to hear any sentence similar to what you just said ever again!"

Wu Qiyi turned around, facing you with a slight smile: "I was just hypothesizing."

"Even hypothesizing isn’t allowed. Like I said, as long as I’m alive, I will absolutely not let you get hurt!" With that, you stared straight at her, eyes wide open, "Quick, spit out that sentence!"

Watching your earnest expression, Wu Qiyi smiled tenderly: "Ptooey."

"Harder, that lacked sincerity!"

"Ptooey!"

The grand Jiang University Goddess revealed such an adorable side for the first time in front of you.

Looking at you, it was as if something scratched at your heart...

"Yun."

"Hmm?" You looked at Wu Qiyi as this was the first time she had addressed you in such a manner.

"I want to play in Chang’an for a few days, just you and me, okay?"

After being stunned for three seconds, you nodded: "Of course."

There are many places to visit in Chang’an City, but Wu Qiyi clearly had no interest in the so-called Bell Tower and Drum Tower. After you agreed to her, she reached out and grabbed your hand, smiling at you: "Let’s go!"

"Where to?"

"Hua Mountain!"

"What!?"

From Chang’an to Hua Mountain, driving on the highway takes about an hour.

Wu Qiyi, who had always been virtuous and gentle, suddenly became capricious that day and ordered someone to drive to Hua Mountain that evening.

You didn’t understand her actions and immediately asked, "What are we going to Hua Mountain for now? It’s dark, we can’t see much. Plus, Hua Mountain is notoriously a single-plank path, I’ve heard that its trails aren’t easy to climb, and it’s more dangerous to climb at night. Let’s go during the daytime."

Who knew Wu Qiyi would immediately shake her head and say with a smile, "I want to watch the sunrise on Hua Mountain with you!"

You originally wanted to say something else, but when you saw the sweet smile on her face, you gave up. How could you refuse her with that endearing smile?

As you said, Hua Mountain has only one path since ancient times!

There is only one very steep, very steep mountain trail leading up Hua Mountain.

How steep, it’s inclined at seventy degrees!

And what’s more interesting is that when Wu Qiyi’s car passed through the checkpoint and came directly to the foot of Hua Mountain, you discovered to your surprise that the beauty in the suit took a tent backpack out of the car trunk!

"This is..."

"Tonight, we’re going to camp on the top of Hua Mountain, in the cold wind, and then watch the sunrise."

Wu Qiyi handed the tent backpack to you with a giggling smile, you sighed softly and shrugged: "Looks like tonight I will have to sacrifice myself to keep this lady company."

"Not right, it’s young lady."

Wu Qiyi smiled, pulling your hand and walking toward the steep path.

"Miss, your hiking stick!"

The lady in the suit took out a hiking stick from the trunk and hurried after you.

Wu Qiyi glanced at the hiking stick and then looked at you, her voice tender: "No need, he is my hiking stick."

Great, now you had another function, a hiking stick!

Let’s go, climb the mountain!
