Chapter 1385 - 1386: Heading to Qi Mountain 5

Early the next morning, Mu Tiantian woke up still held in Shen Tiancheng’s arms. With the departure on her mind, she no longer felt the previous fear towards Shen Tiancheng.

So Mu Tiantian quickly stretched out her hand and pushed Shen Tiancheng, who was using her as a pillow, aside. Then she got up and out of bed.

As for Shen Tiancheng’s long and well-built body beneath the covers that made one’s blood rush... Mu Tiantian tried hard not to stare as she quickly entered the bathroom to freshen up.

When she came out of the bathroom, Shen Tiancheng, who got up sometime unbeknownst to her, was already dressed.

Clearly, he hadn’t packed anything, yet somehow he had a suit, still one of those high-end tailored suits that made people green with envy, making him look even more rakish and charming.

Mu Tiantian glanced at him briefly then turned away to start packing her things.

Actually, there wasn’t much to pack, just some change of clothes and daily necessities she held in her hand.

By the time Mu Tiantian had everything sorted out, Shen Tiancheng was refreshed and stood by the door grinning wickedly, his slanted phoenix eyes added an indescribable allure.

Mu Tiantian made an effort to suppress her twitching lips and quickly pulled the suitcase out the door.

When they arrived at the northernmost village of Charlin Province, Huangyan Village, it was already five hours later, just at noon.

Unlike the towns, the village didn’t have restaurants, but fortunately, Mu Tiantian was well-prepared, bringing plenty of dry food.

She took out a large bag of bread, giving more than half to Shen Tiancheng and kept the rest for herself, also handing Shen Tiancheng a box of milk.

Shen Tiancheng looked at it, then reached out to take it.

His gaze lingered over Mu Tiantian’s small suitcase, seemingly pondering how much food it could hold.

Mu Tiantian noticed his look but chose to ignore it.

Taking a bite of bread, Mu Tiantian swallowed, and looked at the low houses of the village, slowly speaking.

"Young Master Shen, you can go back!"

Shen Tiancheng chuckled lightly and looked at Mu Tiantian.

"Go back? When did I say I was going back?"

Mu Tiantian paused slightly, then said no more.

She had brought Shen Tiancheng along during her travels as she worried that once the effects of his drugs wore off, he might send people to bring her back, so she thought she might as well take him in the car.

However, she never expected that Shen Tiancheng wouldn’t go back.

Swallowing the bread in her mouth, Mu Tiantian’s big black eyes widened.

It was merely an unconscious gesture, but coupled with her white and tender doll-like face, it looked very cute and even somewhat innocent.

Shen Tiancheng’s gaze deepened, and his smile was radiant and captivating.

"Although Little Sweetheart, your performance along the way impressed me, I’m still waiting to see who kicks the bucket first between you and Bai Chenyao. Why would I go back at this time?"

Mu Tiantian: "..."

It didn’t really matter to Mu Tiantian whether Shen Tiancheng went back or followed her into Qi Mountain.

But if Shen Tiancheng followed her in, would her safety quotient be higher?

She’s seen firsthand on people-and-nature shows the constant dangers of the primitive forest, where even the most experienced adventurers almost instantly become a pile of bones—it’s a common occurrence.

However, Bai Chenyao was there, and she needed to find him.

Until she saw him and heard his answer directly, she couldn’t rest easy.

As for the issues of life and death afterward... Mu Tiantian’s eyes flickered with a hint of confusion.

They say life and death are destined, riches and honor reside in fate; if she dies, then perhaps it truly is her fate!
