Chapter 131: Liu Hao Goes Missing!

  The next morning, Chen Daxing got out of bed with great spirit, dressed up and ready to go, preparing for today's journey.

  However, when arriving at the door of Liu Xiaomin's second daughter, after knocking on the door for a long time, there was no one inside to respond. After making a phone call, I finally heard footsteps coming from inside.

  "What's going on? So early!" Liu Xiaomin rubbed her eyes, looking drowsy.

  Her loose pajamas covered her chest, and the two peaks were slightly exposed. The tip of the nipple was even visible to the naked eye, and a faint scent wafted up from her body, making Chen Dabing's heart feel like it was burning with fire.

  "Isn't it early? It's almost 9 o'clock, hurry up and get up, let's have dinner and go hiking!" Chen Dasheng quickly shifted his gaze from Liu Xiaomin's chest and urged her.

  "Why climb the mountain? It's so cold! I'm so tired!" Liu Xiaomin said with a reluctant face, "Let's just play at the foot of the mountain, anyway we're leaving this afternoon!"

  "Hmm, it's not easy to come all the way here, wouldn't it be a waste if we didn't go up the mountain and have some fun?" Chen Dashi said.

  "You go yourself, I've been there before, and there's nothing fun on the mountain!" Liu Xiaomin said with a yawn, looking tired. Through the door gap, Chen Dasheng saw that Nangong Zixuan was still sleeping in, it seemed that these two women must have chatted for a long time last night.

  Looking at this situation, it's useless to think about waking up these two girls. Chen Dabai felt a bit helpless. A holiday, and finally a New Year's Day holiday, was wasted like this?

  "Why don't we leave tomorrow and play a bit more today?" Chen Dasheng was actually eager to go up the mountain to take a look, wasn't coming to this place just for soaking in hot springs and climbing glaciers? Now that they've soaked in the hot springs, it's only right to go up the mountain for a stroll.

  Liu Xiaomin said, "Forget it, we don't want to climb the mountain. Zi Xuan and I have discussed it, let's go hurry up the goats instead."

  "Uh!" Chen Dàshèng hesitated, looking at Liu Xiǎomǐn's stubborn expression. He knew his wish to go mountain climbing was dashed. In this situation, as a grown man, he might have no choice but to compromise.

  Just then, a commotion came from the stairs, Chen Dasheng turned his head to look, and saw a figure with its hands tied up rushing over.

  "Xian Ge, didn't you guys go up the mountain? Why are you running so anxiously?" It was Wu Zhongxian. Chen Dasheng couldn't help but mutter to himself when he saw Wu Zhongxian's flustered appearance.

  Wu Zhongxian saw Tao Chen Dashi and immediately ran over on horseback, "Brother Sheng, you're here! Has Haozi returned?"

  "Haozi? Didn't he go up the mountain with you guys?" Chen Dasheng was taken aback. Last night, Haozi had followed Wu Zhongxian out, and when he himself had just arrived, he had even knocked on Liu Hao's door on the way, but no one answered, clearly they had gone up the mountain. So why did Wu Zhongxian come back alone?

  Wu Zhongxian swallowed a mouthful of saliva, somewhat breathlessly saying, "Last night we finished filming on Glacier No. 2, and in the blink of an eye that little guy was gone. I and the crew searched everywhere but couldn't find him, not even his girlfriend was around. Suddenly a thick fog rolled in on the mountain, making it very difficult to search. I thought maybe he had returned by himself, so I came down to take a look."

  "What? The rat is gone?" Liu Xiaomin's expression changed instantly upon hearing this.

  Wu Zhongxian hastily nodded, "It's not considered missing, just temporarily can't find it. The fog on the mountain is really too big, and it won't dissipate for a while. Moreover, there is a section of forest that is very dense, so it's very troublesome to search!"

  Wu Zhongxian now has some regrets about bringing Liu Hao up the mountain. If something happens to this kid, he'll be in big trouble.

  "Let's go take a look at his room first, just in case he comes back!" Chen Dajun comfortingly glanced at Liu Xiaomin and immediately walked towards Liu Hao's room next door.

  He knocked on the door with a loud "bang, bang, bang", but no one came to open it. Chen Daxing furrowed his brow and turned around, saying, "Looks like he's not back yet, let's try calling him!"

  Wu Zhongxian shook his head, "No use, there's no signal on the mountain, I've tried calling before, but couldn't get through."

  Liu Xiaomin was a bit skeptical and hastily took out her phone to dial Liu Hao's number, and indeed it was busy.

  "No, I'll go look for him!" Liu Xiaomin was getting anxious. Although she didn't get along with Liu Hao, he was her brother and the only male in their household. If something happened to him, it would be a disaster!

  "What are you doing here, aren't you causing trouble?" Chen Dabing hastily pulled Liu Xiaomin back and turned to Wu Zhongxian, "When did they go missing?"

  "Wu Zhongxian said, 'We finished recording the program at 3 am and suddenly it was gone. We have informed the scenic area's security department and they are also helping to search for it!'"

  "Has the police been informed?" Liu Xiaomin asked.

  Wu Zhongxian shook his head, "It's just been a few hours, it can't be considered missing yet!"

  Chen Daxing looked at Liu Xiaomin's anxious appearance and hastily said, "Don't worry, I'll go up the mountain to take a look, I must find him back!"

  "Who?" Liu Xiaomin looked at Chen Dasheng, her eyes fluttering, and in the midst of panic and confusion, she seemed to have found a thread of reliance.

  "Stay here and don't run around, the mouse might just be lost!" Chen Dabai comforted Liu Xiaomin for a few words, then took down the water bottle hanging on his neck, "You take this thing, this place is high in altitude, it's easy to lack oxygen, if you feel uncomfortable, drink two mouthfuls, it's good for your body, remember not to run around."

  Liu Xiaomin was already somewhat flustered, and after hearing Chen Dasheng's words, she simply nodded repeatedly. Chen Dasheng instructed her a few more times before turning around to run out with Wu Zhongxian. Liu Xiaomin hastily entered the house, pulled out her phone, and made a call home.

  ——

  "What's wrong, Little Sister Min?"

  Nangong Zixuan woke up with a start from her dream, lifted her sleepy eyes and looked at Liu Xiaomin who was pacing back and forth beside the bed with a worried face.

  Liu Xiaomin said, "Sorry, I woke you up."

  "What's going on?" Nan Gong Zi Xuan didn't mind.

  "My little brother and his girlfriend went missing on the mountain last night, their phones are also unreachable. The mountain is so dangerous, this little brat really doesn't let people worry."

  "Missing?" Nangong Zixuan saw Liu Xiaomin's tense appearance and hastily put on her clothes to walk over, "Xiaomin sister, maybe she just got lost, it's only been a short while, can't be considered missing."

  "Alas, Zi Xuan, you don't know how dangerous the glacier is. I heard that a thick fog rose last night, and if either of us isn't careful, we might fall into a crevasse. It would be a disaster, with no one to turn to for help." Liu Xiao Min was worried sick.

  If it were just getting lost, she wouldn't be too worried, but she had been on a tour here before and was very familiar with the situation on the mountain, especially on that glacier, where there were terrifying crevasses everywhere, with huge cracks that seemed bottomless. The two of them were walking in the fog, what if they fell into one of those cracks, would they still have a way out?

  At this moment, Liu Xiaomin felt a little regretful in her heart. This time, she really shouldn't have brought Liu Hao out. If something happened, how could she explain it to her parents when she got home?

  For a moment, Liu Xiaomin's breathing became rapid, and the high altitude of this place made it easy to become oxygen-deficient and experience high-altitude reactions. Liu Xiaomin felt dizzy and uncomfortable for no reason.

  Nangong Zixuan saw this and quickly came over to help Liu Xiaomin sit down on the bed, "Xiaomin sister, worrying won't solve anything. Why don't you stay here and I'll go up the mountain to take a look?"

  Liu Xiaomin shook her head, thinking of what Chen Dasheng said before he left, and quickly opened the water bottle in her hand, gurgling a mouthful.

  As the cool water went down her throat, Liu Xiaomin suddenly felt refreshed and invigorated. A mysterious surge of energy flowed through her limbs and drove away the discomfort in an instant. Her pale lips also regained their rosiness, and her breathing became much smoother.

  "Huh? It really works!" Liu Xiaomin stared at the water bottle for a moment, looking surprised, and then pulled Nan Gong Zixuan along, "Dasheng has already gone up the mountain, let's wait here, it's really dangerous on the mountain, we don't want to go, in case one gets lost and another is lost too."

  Nangong Zixuan thought for a moment and nodded, since Chen Dasheng had already gone up the mountain, there was no point in her going again. After all, her strength was still far inferior to Chen Dasheng's, let alone that she was not familiar with the situation on the glacier either.
