“Let’s go. I don’t want that Yuan Xiao to be alone with Qi Yuan!” Tang Lu endured the pain in her toes and continued to walk up the mountain.

“Don’t worry, Sister Lu Lu. It’s fine even if they stay together.” Zhong Zhi had long told Qi Yuan about her encounter with Fang Yao and Yuan Xiao at the breakfast shop.

Qi Yuan and Fang Yao had a good relationship. It might be because of Fang Yao that he took care of Yuan Xiao.

Zhong Zhi wanted to tell Tang Lu directly that Qi Yuan would not like Yuan Xiao, but after all, Qi Yuan’s attitude towards Tang Lu was clear. Zhong Zhi was unwilling to cause trouble for his cousin.

If Qi Yuan knew that he had given Tang Lu more confidence, he would definitely be scolded to death by Qi Yuan.

Zhong Zhi did not want to cause trouble, so he chose to speak as little as possible to avoid trouble.

“Of course. How can Qi Yuan like her?! I’m not worried about this at all!”

Tang Lu’s words completely confused Zhong Zhi. If she was really not worried, why did she have to follow him like this?

Zhong Zhi did not understand Tang Lu’s duplicity. He felt that it was precisely because of her confusing personality that she was getting further and further away from Qi Yuan.

“Then let’s go. In any case, the earlier we reach the top of the mountain, the earlier we can end it.” Zhong Zhi regretted asking Qi Yuan to take him along to participate in this outdoor shoot.

Initially, he thought that he could ease his relationship with Yuan Xiao, but he did not expect that he would not have the chance to interact with her.

As Yuan Xiao walked, she kept silently asking the system about her location from Pan Ning. It was not until she was very close to the top of the mountain that the system finally said that Pan Ning’s location was less than a hundred meters away from her.

Yuan Xiao glanced at the time. There was less than half an hour left until the mission timeout. If she was continuously followed by Qi Yuan, she would have no chance of finding Pan Ning.

“Senior Qi) I’ll walk around first. The scenery here is quite good.” Yuan Xiao smiled awkwardly. She really could not find a suitable reason to look for Pan Ning.

“Alright.” Qi Yuan thought for a moment and took out his phone. He said to Yuan Xiao, “Let’s exchange contact details. Contact me if anything happens.”

Qi Yuan was really worried that something would happen in the mountains. After all, Yuan Xiao was a girl. Even if she sprained her ankle in the mountains, it would be very dangerous.

However, his actions were not that simple in Tang Lu and Zhong Zhi’s eyes.

Tang Lu was about to step forward to stop him when Zhong Zhi pulled her back.

“Sister Lu Lu, don’t be rash! They’re just exchanging numbers. There’s nothing special!” Zhong Zhi gritted his teeth and grabbed Tang Lu’s arm tightly.

Tang Lu actually understood that there was nothing inappropriate about Qi Yuan’s actions, but she was still affected and felt indignant. After all, Qi Yuan had never been so concerned about any girl in the past.

“Alright, Senior Qi, I’ll go explore elsewhere first.” After exchanging cell phone numbers, Yuan Xiao finally started to act alone as she wished.

“Qi Yuan, wait a moment. Let’s go together!” Seeing that Qi Yuan did not look back, Tang Lu hurriedly chased after him.

Zhong Zhi looked at Tang Lu, who was hurriedly chasing after Qi Yuan, and sighed helplessly.

“Sigh, I’d better walk by myself.” Seeing that everyone had already walked away, Zhong Zhi could not help but feel sorry for Tang Lu. It was perseverance to chase after someone who did not like her.

Zhong Zhi felt that girls like Yuan Xiao were much luckier than Tang Lu. Not only did she have an outstanding boyfriend like Fang Yao, but she was also very good at interacting with others.

At this moment, Yuan Xiao wished she could use all her luck for the past year to find Pan Ning.

After separating from Qi Yuan, Yuan Xiao had been searching for Pan Ning in the mountains as quickly as possible.

Now, it was no longer a matter about the system’s mission. Yuan Xiao could not understand why Pan Ning would appear in this mountain.

“Little 7, could it be that Pan Ning is here for the purpose of letting me complete a mission?

Yuan Xiao suddenly had a terrifying guess. If the Academic Genius System could control the characters in this book just to issue missions, things would become even more terrifying.

[Of course not. This system is filled with a sense of justice. How can it treat other people’s lives as child’s play!]

Yuan Xiao did not know if it was her imagination, but she felt that after the system upgraded, even its tone became more and more vivid.

“That’s good. You have to promise me that Pan Ning will not be in danger!’ Yuan Xiao was not that determined to complete the mission per se, but if it was related to Pan Ning’s safety, Yuan Xiao had to take it seriously.

[Don’t worry, Host. Pan Ning’s life won’t be in danger, but it’s better for you to find her as soon as possible..]
