Chapter 367 Encountering Xiao Rui

Xi Xiang Village, on the mountain.

Dark clouds shrouded the mountaintop, and torrential rain poured down.

Sun Rong and a few sisters huddled in a cave, shivering. The originally well-maintained youthful faces were now streaked with rain, looking utterly miserable.

She had heard from her sisters that there was a very powerful fortune teller, so she went to check.

Tomorrow Xiao Ye and Su Ding would be back, and she was feeling very agitated. If the fortune teller said they were destined to be together, she would give up. If not, she would have to intervene.

However, when she arrived at her sister's house, the fortune teller had an urgent matter and had already left.

She didn't want to have made the trip in vain. After a discussion among her sisters, they decided that since it had been a while since they went on a trip to the surrounding areas, and they heard the fortune teller lived in Xi Xiang Village.

They planned to find the fortune teller and, incidentally, explore the mountain scenery.

Who knew, fate did not go as planned.

Just as she left the fortune teller's house, her mood was excellent because the fortune teller had said that Xiao Ye and Su Ding would eventually break up.

Upon reaching the mountain, she took a few beautiful photos. Less than half an hour later, a torrential downpour arrived.

They were walking on the mountain path, with nowhere to hide. Thunder rumbled in the sky, lightning flashed, and their phones lost signal.

"It's all your fault! You suggested coming to the mountain! There's no signal here!"

"What do we do? It's so dark, what if there are wild animals, then we'll be..."

Sun Rong and the other socialites were unaccustomed to such an ordeal and were frantic.

The icy rain that struck their bodies felt like cold knives, both painful and chilling. The faint glow emitted by the phones clutched in their hands was pitifully small on the dark mountain path.

"It's so cold, what do we do..."

"Are we going to freeze to death on this mountain? I saw news before about someone freezing to death while traveling on a mountain."

"Don't scare me!"

"If I can get out of here alive, I'll definitely develop this mountain. We've walked for so long without seeing a soul."

They walked for a long time on the mountain path, some already starting to shed tears.

Tired, hungry, frightened, and scared.

Suddenly, two dark figures were moving in the distance and gradually approaching them!

"Ah!" Someone let out a scream, making Sun Rong tremble all over.

These pampered socialites couldn't even muster the strength to run. They huddled together tightly, staring into the distance.

In the distance, Su Xiaorui and Wang Siwei were walking towards them, hand in hand.

Both were wearing raincoats that didn't quite fit, and they held a broken umbrella that was close to rusting.

"There are people over there, Wang Siwei, let's go see."

"Mm-hmm."

As the two approached, both parties recognized each other.

The socialites immediately breathed a sigh of relief. They had thought it was some wild beast!

Sun Rong seemed to grasp a glimmer of hope and jogged forward. Ignoring her drenched state, she excitedly said to Su Xiaorui and the others, "Little ones, Grandma came to the mountain for a trip and didn't expect it to rain. Can you take Grandma and her friends down the mountain? Grandma will buy you lots and lots of snacks when we get down, okay?"

"Grandma, it's still a long way down from here, and this rain won't stop for a while. Let's take shelter from the rain first," Wang Siwei said politely, but still cautiously held Su Xiaorui's hand, looking somewhat nervous.

Sun Rong and the others nodded repeatedly.

With Wang Siwei leading the way, they found a hidden cave within ten minutes.

Finally, having reached a place to shelter from the rain, the socialites quickly wrung out their clothes, rubbed their hands to warm themselves, and their panic subsided.

"Little ones, why are you on the mountain?" Sun Rong looked at Su Xiaorui's face and was secretly surprised. This girl looked so much like her grandson.
