Chapter 196 Entering the Mountain
Chapter 196 Entering the Mountain
~
In the second half of the night, Ruan Zhao thought his plan had failed, but Xiao Jing suddenly came into the room in the dark and took him out of the bed.
Ruan Zhao realized it was him but didn't say anything until Xiao Jing carried her to a car and put her down. "Go to bed in half an hour."
Ruan Zhao's eyelashes trembled, and then he opened his eyes.
She smiled a little embarrassedly, "How do you know I'm not asleep?"
A hint of fondness flashed across Xiao Jing's eyes. "You're dressed so neatly, aren't you ready to go with me?"
Ruan Zhao smiled even more guiltily. "Haha, I thought you wouldn't take me with you."
"What are you going to do if I don't take you?"
Xiao Jing had been keeping an eye on Ruan Zhao. Seeing that she didn't even take off her clothes to sleep and had packed some of her personal belongings, he knew that she had some ideas in mind.
Ruan Zhao paused, then thought of something and said angrily, "If you don't take me with you, then I'll leave here and avoid being bullied again!"
Xiao Jing's eyes turned cold after hearing this, and he immediately grabbed her chin with one hand, turning her face towards him. "Don't forget that you are already my woman! If you dare to leave me without my permission, I promise that you will never be able to leave my bed for the rest of your life."
Ruan Zhao was frightened by his ferocious look. He pursed his lips pitifully and did not dare to speak.
In the passenger seat, Chen Yuteng opened the door and sat in. Only then did Xiao Jing let go of Ruan Zhao.
Glancing in Ruan Zhao's direction, Chen Yuteng couldn't tell if he was dissatisfied or not, but simply said calmly, "Since you've decided to take her with you, then you can take care of her yourself."
"Don't worry." Xiao Jing replied simply and sat next to Ruan Zhao without saying a word.

We waited until Gecko and Huatou arrived, and the car drove out quickly.
Along the way, Ruan Zhao closed his eyes, leaned obediently in the back seat and didn't say a word.
In fact, she had been drawing the car's route in her mind.
Xiao Jing glanced at her, thinking that she was frightened by him, and finally took her hand out of pity.
After driving for half an hour, the car suddenly stopped with an emergency brake. Ruan Zhao fell forward suddenly and almost hit the seat in front of him.
Xiao Jing pulled her back, exchanged glances with Chen Yuteng in front, and pulled Ruan Zhao out of the car.
Ruan Zhao didn't ask anything, but just followed Xiao Jing obediently.
When getting off the bus, he quietly released a small paper man while no one was paying attention.
Xiao Jing pulled Ruan Zhao into the woods. After running for nearly twenty minutes, they finally came to a small road and got into a jeep that had been parked there for a long time.
It was Gecko driving again, this time he was driving very fast and seemed to be heading straight for a destination.
Ruan Zhao didn't close his eyes this time, but just glanced out the window from time to time. Seeing that the car was driving more and more remote and the temperature was getting lower and lower, Ruan Zhao guessed that they were going into the mountains.
Oh, right, mountain?
After coming out of the villa, she had been silently memorizing the route. Now it seemed that they were heading towards the southeast mountainous area.
Ruan Zhao had seen the topographic map of Shanghai. There was a mountainous area within the southeastern coastal line of Shanghai, which was full of deep mountains and old forests.
It is also because of this mountainous area that this coastline is marked as a dangerous area in Shanghai in order to prevent some criminals from sneaking into the country.
Ruan Zhao didn't hear the whole conversation last night, but if it was as written in the book and those foreigners were using the blood of Chinese people to make viruses, they should find a hidden place as a laboratory.
The deep mountains and old forests in the southeastern mountainous areas are the most suitable.
Thinking of this, Ruan Zhao tightened his fingers and looked at Xiao Jing anxiously.
I don’t know if this guy can recover his memory?
If I really find the pharmaceutical base of that group of foreigners, I must pass the news back and then I will have to wipe them out.
But his own mysterious skills were useless against Xiao Jing, and Ruan Zhao was worried that he would make things worse.
Feeling that the person next to him was worried, Xiao Jing thought she was scared, so he held her hand again.
Ruan Zhao came back to his senses, turned around to look at him, and didn't dare to be distracted again.
This man was so sharp that she had to make herself look stupid.

The car drove for three hours and finally stopped at the foot of a mountain.
Xiao Jing nudged Ruan Zhao, who had been sleeping all the way, and whispered, "Wake up."
Ruan Zhao drowsily opened his eyes and realized they had arrived when he saw the car had stopped. "Are we getting off?"
"Yeah." Xiao Jing responded, opened the car door and got out first.
Then, he quickly walked to Ruan Zhao and opened her car door.
I don't know where he took out a hat from, but he put it directly on Ruan Zhao's head. Then he raised his hands, grabbed her armpits on both sides, and carried her out of the car.
Ruan Zhao was confused for a moment by his series of actions.
Is he raising himself as a child?
Huatou and Gecko, who had already taken the things, were surprised by this scene.
Gehu couldn't help but teased, "Brother Jing, are you planning to raise a daughter for yourself?"
Xiao Jing glared at Gecko without saying anything, but just pulled Ruan Zhao forward.
Ruan Zhao quietly pinched his fingers to confirm that his little paper man had caught up, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Yuteng glanced at the backs of Xiao Jing and Ruan Zhao in front of him and said lightly, "Let's go."

The trees in the mountains are very lush and almost no light can penetrate, so as the sun sets, the light in the forest dims.
Several people walked in the mountains for five or six hours. Seeing that the light was getting dim, they were likely to encounter wild animals if they continued walking.
Chen Yuteng also realized this, so he called a halt and found a sheltered place to rest in advance.
Xiao Jing and Huatou went to find firewood. Gecko was setting up a tent not far away, and Chen Yuteng was sitting on a rock drinking water.
Ruan Zhao looked in the direction of Chen Yuteng and his eyes moved.
This forest is so vast, and I don't know how many days it will take to reach our destination. It would be best to know in advance what they are going to do so that we can send a message back.
Thinking of this, Ruan Zhao decided to use empathy to explore Chen Yuteng's memory.
Glancing at the gecko who was setting up a tent, and seeing that he wasn't paying attention, Ruan Zhao walked straight towards Chen Yuteng.
"Brother Teng." Ruan Zhao called Chen Yuteng, then frowned and said nervously.
"I... I feel like there's a thorn in my finger, it hurts a little, can Brother Teng help me take a look?"
Her voice was soft and sounded a little nervous.
Chen Yuteng paused, looked at Ruan Zhao with deep eyes, then glanced at her hand and said with a smirk. "Okay, which hand? Let me see."
When Ruan Zhao heard this, he raised his right hand and stretched it towards Chen Yuteng, "It seems to be on the index finger."
Chen Yuteng stared at her fair fingers and paused for a moment. He didn't know what he was thinking about. He raised his hand, grabbed her wrist, and pulled her closer. "Come closer, or I can't reach you."
Ruan Zhao was pulled by him, and his knees were directly pressed against his legs. Due to inertia, his body almost fell on him.
Fortunately, she managed to steady herself in time and was not pulled down.
Enduring the discomfort of close contact, Ruan Zhao was just about to take the opportunity to activate his spiritual power when he heard the sound of something falling to the ground behind him.
Ruan Zhao was startled. When he turned around, he saw Xiao Jing walking towards him with a gloomy face. He couldn't help but want to curse.
How did this guy come back so quickly?
Xiao Jing glanced at the hand that was held by Chen Yuteng, and without saying a word, he pulled her hand away and said coldly, "Come and work with me!"
After saying that, he pulled Ruan Zhao away.
Chen Yuteng glanced at the two of them, and a smile that seemed both mocking and playful appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Unexpectedly, he was wrong.
I thought she was an honest girl...
