Chapter 1382 - 1383: Heading to Qi Mountain 2

The high-performance off-road vehicle was very fast and incredibly smooth. Although Mu Tiantian’s driving skills weren’t top-notch, her two years abroad had solidified her learning.

Even though she hadn’t driven since returning, after the initial unease, her anticipation to reach Qi Mountain quickly made her driving skills improve, becoming more skilled and proficient along the way.

From Shengjing to the northern Charlin Province, Mu Tiantian spent a full fifteen hours, stopping only briefly at service stations to rest, eat, and replenish her energy.

In the provincial capital of Charlin Province, driving for long hours had exhausted Mu Tiantian to the point of concern about driving while fatigued, forcing her to get off and stay at a hotel.

When she saw Shen Tiancheng slowly sitting up in the back seat, Mu Tiantian wasn’t surprised in the slightest.

The medicine that managed to keep Shen Tiancheng exhausted for so long was indeed very effective.

As for her comment about the medicine being able to fatigue a cow for three days, it was merely a remark aimed at mocking Shen Tiancheng.

As for Shen Tiancheng, though initially surprised at seeing him sit up, Mu Tiantian quickly regained her usual calm and slightly raised an eyebrow.

"You don’t seem surprised at all?"

Shen Tiancheng got out of the car, looking at the calm Mu Tiantian.

Mu Tiantian gave a soft affirmation, took her prepared change of clothes and small suitcase, and without looking at Shen Tiancheng, entered the hotel directly.

She had already booked a room online while on the road. After Mu Tiantian went in, she verified her identity and entered the elevator.

Watching her, Shen Tiancheng’s gaze became deeper and deeper.

He knew that Mu Tiantian’s decision to go to Qi Mountain to find Bai Chenyao was made only a day ago, yet coming all the way here, Mu Tiantian seemed to have done nothing, yet handled everything methodically, without any signs of a rushed journey.

This aspect of Mu Tiantian made Shen Tiancheng curious and appreciative.

If, in the past, his teasing of Mu Tiantian carried other intentions, observing her now, Shen Tiancheng’s gaze had an unprecedented touch of brightness.

It was a look that made him feel surprised and intrigued, accompanied by a kind of admiration he never had while looking at other women, his lips slightly curving. The usual hint of frivolous smile had softened.

At the doorway to their room, when Mu Tiantian handed him a room card, Shen Tiancheng frowned.

"What?"

Mu Tiantian had already taken her luggage and walked directly to the doorway of another room, scanned her card, and opened the door.

Shen Tiancheng watched her, quickly crossed the distance in a few large steps, and squeezed in before Mu Tiantian could shut the door.

Mu Tiantian regarded him, instinctively furrowed her brows.

"Your room is next door!"

Shen Tiancheng had a faint smile at the corner of his lips, his tall body lazily leaning against the wall at the doorway. Since he was much taller than Mu Tiantian, he slightly lowered his head while speaking, looking at her.

"Do you think you can refuse me now?"

Mu Tiantian’s breath caught, the muscles at the corners of her mouth twitched.

Indeed, she couldn’t refuse Shen Tiancheng, so Mu Tiantian didn’t bother looking at him, took her suitcase, and continued inward.

Seeing that Mu Tiantian didn’t give him the usual sharp glare, Shen Tiancheng squinted.

Is it that she knows she can’t refuse, so doesn’t waste her effort?

Tsk!

It’s a bit less entertaining now; otherwise, he could still tease for fun.

Seeing Mu Tiantian dragging her suitcase inside, Shen Tiancheng didn’t hesitate and followed her.
