Chapter 3054  : She is no longer staying in the village.

On the way, he kept calling her, but all he could hear was the cold voice of the customer service robot.””I’m sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable. We will transfer you to a voice message. Press 1, please leave a message …”

He could not remember how many times he had called her, but since her call did not go through, he could not help but pull the Bluetooth Earphone from his ear and throw it on the passenger seat.

PEI GE only left the house at daybreak. As her driving skills were not very good, she drove carefully even though she was in a hurry to find Cheng Ningyuan.

Ji Ziming, on the other hand, was a different story. He was in such a hurry to find PEI GE that his car was as fast as a rocket. His dark eyes were filled with hostility, triggered by PEI GE’s departure. He felt as if a ball of anger was burning in his chest. If anything were to happen to her again, he would really beat himself to death.

In the abandoned temple in the mountains, Wen Xin and Cheng Ningyuan finally came out of their tents reluctantly because of the cheerful chirping of the birds in the morning. They stretched and smiled at each other.

As she breathed in the fresh air of the mountains, Wen Xin asked Cheng Ningyuan, who was brushing his teeth,””Ning Yuan, how many kilometers did you say we were from that village?”

Because he didn’t carry much drinking water, Cheng Ningyuan simply gulped two mouthfuls and spat out the toothpaste foam in his mouth.””It’s not far. It’s about 20 kilometers. We should be able to reach it in three or four hours.”

“Oh … Okay!” Wen Xin nodded thoughtfully, then handed the hardtack to Cheng Ningyuan as a simple breakfast for the two of them.

In order to save time, the two of them quickly packed their luggage after breakfast and set off in the direction of the mountain village with a large backpack.

However, when the two of them finally reached the village entrance after much difficulty, gasping for breath, and took out the photo to ask the villagers about the whereabouts of Cheng Ningyuan’s mother, an old man in the village saw the photo and told Cheng Ningyuan and the others that this woman, Cheng Ningyuan’s mother, had moved to live in the town outside the mountain a few years ago. As for the specific residence, no one in the village knew.

Cheng Ningyuan was like a kite with a broken string. After listening to the old man’s story, he fell to the ground.

Wen Xin had never seen Cheng Ningyuan in such a dazed state. After repeatedly nodding to thank the old man, she quickly knelt down and asked Cheng Ningyuan with concern,””Ning Yuan, are you … Alright?”

“It wasn’t easy to find a lead, but it’s broken again … God, are you playing with me? What do you want me to do? Only then will I be able to see them and personally ask them why they abandoned me back then?” It was hard to tell whether Cheng Ningyuan was crying or laughing, but Wen Xin’s heart twitched when she saw him sitting cross-legged on the ground and looking up at her with a look of ridicule.

Seeing this, Wen Xin quickly held Cheng Ningyuan’s arm and comforted him,””Don’t be like this, Ning Yuan. Wasn’t there still a lead? We can go to the town outside the mountains and continue our search. The town is more densely populated, so we might be able to find Auntie faster, right?”

“We’ve walked so far up the mountain, but we didn’t see her. Now she’s telling me that she’s gone out of the mountain to live. If the heavens aren’t playing with me, what are they? Even the heavens don’t want me to meet her, so why should I go against the will of the heavens?” After Cheng Ningyuan finished speaking, he heavily punched the ground. Because there were small gravel on the road, Cheng Ningyuan’s good-looking fingers were covered with fine wounds.

“Ning Yuan!” Wen Xin couldn’t stop him. Seeing the blood oozing out of his wound, her heart ached. She hurriedly picked up Cheng Ningyuan’s injured hand and blew softly in front of him, saying,””Why are you wasting your time? It’s not like we don’t have a chance to find Auntie at all. Besides, you’ve been through all these years. Do you think you’re afraid of this short period of time? After we leave the mountain and head to town, we can continue our search. I promise you, if we can’t find it, we’ll settle down in the town, okay?”

After saying that, Wen Xin looked at the wound on his hand and thought,”no, I can ‘t.” She took out some Emergency Medicine from her backpack and carefully cleaned Cheng Ningyuan’s wound with alcohol, then applied medicine and wrapped it up.

After hearing Wen Xin’s words, Cheng Ningyuan’s originally disheartened heart seemed to have been reignited with hope.

When he saw how much Wenxin cared for his injured hand, he finally calmed down a little. He felt that he had been too immature just now and said apologetically,””I’m sorry, Wenxin, I was too excited just now. Did I scare you?”

Wen Xin gently tied a knot on the gauze, then flicked Cheng Ningyuan’s handsome forehead with her little hand and said,””I wasn’t scared by you, but it’s terrible to be your hand. I took a punch from you for no reason, and I’m afraid it’ll take a few days to recover. If we really find Auntie in town tomorrow and she sees your self-mutilating hand, won’t she be scared to death? You?”

After she finished speaking, Wen Xin looked helplessly at Cheng Ningyuan’s hand and shook her head.

Although Cheng Ningyuan could tell that Wen Xin was not saying it out of concern for him, he still felt that when she said these words, she sounded like she was teaching a kindergarten child.

Even though he had calmed down, he still said with a dull look in his eyes,””I told you last night that it wouldn’t be so easy. But now, not to mention reuniting, God didn’t even give me a chance to meet him. Forget it. Wenxin, let’s go back. ”

Wen Xin didn’t understand. When it came to other things, Cheng Ningyuan was always Swift and decisive, but when it came to finding his loved ones, he was like a different person. He was overcautious and indecisive, and would retreat at the slightest setback. He was not like the handsome Cheng Ningyuan she knew.

“Ning Yuan, do you know what you’re saying?” Wen Xin watched as he slowly got up from the ground and walked in the direction of the mountain. She wanted to take advantage of the time on the way back to persuade Cheng Ningyuan not to give up.””We’ve already come this far, and the clues haven’t stopped. Why don’t we continue searching? Perhaps the town’s hope would be greater? You’ve persevered for so long, and we’ve come all the way here. Are you going to give up just like that? What’s wrong with you? He’s not like the Cheng Ningyuan I know!”

Cheng Ningyuan had no intention of stopping, but continued walking in the direction of the mountain village.

On the other hand, Wen Xin continued to persuade Cheng Ningyuan with both emotion and reason along the way. She also followed Cheng Ningyuan in the direction of the mountain exit.
