âPfft!â
Jian Dan and Chu Zhiyuan landed in a wooden crate filled with chicken feathers⦠They were covered in chicken feathers from head to tail.
However, it was all thanks to these chicken feathers that the two of them escaped death.
It was unknown if the expression on Jian Danâs face was the relief of escaping or the helplessness she had encountered now.
âLittle Jian, we won the gamble.â
Jian Dan looked at Grandpa helplesslyâ¦
Grandpa had such a positive outlook. Thatâs right⦠At least they were still alive!
The truck drove all the way to a factoryâ¦
This was a factory that made feather dusters. No wonder there were so many feathers!
The factory manager sympathized with their plight and kindly arranged a car for themâ¦
The two of them looked at the donkey cart in front of them and did not know whether to laugh or cry!
However, they could not turn down the factory managerâs kindness!
âThis is as far as 1 can get you. Your destination is beyond this mountain; you just need to get to the other side of it.â
Jian Dan and Chu Zhiyuan stared at the endless flight of stairs before them and their eyeballs almost popped out.
âThank you! Sorry to trouble you.â
The donkey cart turned around and headed backâ¦
The elevator was definitely the greatest invention of mankindâ¦
Five minutes laterâ¦
âPfft! Hahaha!â
Jian Dan saw that there was only half of Grandpaâs sweater leftâ¦
Only then did Chu Zhiyuan realize it. Looking at the unraveling and increasingly short sweater, he swiftly broke the thread.
It was obvious that he had caught his sweater on the donkey cart when he got off it.
âGrandpa, this navel-revealing cropped outfit is quite nice. It might even become this yearâs fashion trend! Hahahaha!â
She was already out of breath from climbing the stairs. Now, she was laughing so hard that her stomach hurt.
By the time they reached the top of the mountain, it was already getting dark. So they could only descend after dawn.
Fortunately, she still had a bar of Snickers in her bag. Otherwise, she really would not have the stamina to descend the mountain tomorrow.
âGrandpa, have you seen the âLost On Journeyâ series?â
Jian Dan sat by the fire and asked.
âYeah, theyâre hilarious!â
âDo you think we look like them now? âLost On JourneyâCountryside Tripâ!â
Jian Dan mocked.
âHaha! You donât say, it does seem like it.â
Grandpa could still laugh?
âThis is going to be an unforgettable trip.â
Yeah! How could she forget such a âspecialâ trip?
The two of them drifted to sleep amid the chat. They were obviously exhausted.
Dawn finally cameâ¦
Looking down the mountain, they saw a small villageâ¦
âGrandpa, look. Itâs right there!â
It wasnât easy! It felt like they had finally reached their destination after an adrenaline-fueled odyssey. What an adventure! It was indescribably exhilarating.
When they got to the foot of the mountain, they finally found Granny Xia according to the address Mengjiao had given her.
âGranny Xia, do you still remember me?â
Jian Dan looked at this old lady with a head of silver hair and a face brimming with the signs of age.
âYouâre⦠Jian Dan, right?â
She did not expect Granny Xia to still remember her.
âYup!â
âMengjiao asked me to fetch you.â
âThis isâ¦â
Granny Xia looked at Chu Zhiyuan and asked.
âThis is my Grandpa. He was worried about me coming alone, so he accompanied me here.â
âOh, the two of youâ¦â
Granny Xia suddenly noticed the sorry state Jian Dan and Grandpa were in.
âHehe, itâs a long story, weâll leave it for another time!â
How could she let others know such embarrassing tales?!
âThen go take a shower and change into something else!â
âOkay! Thank you, Granny Xia.â
That was great. She could finally shower and change her clothes. Jian Dan felt like she had just climbed out of the dumpster; she was dirty and smelly.
As both of them had left their luggage on the train, Granny Xia took a set of her late husbandâs clothes and gave them to Grandpa.
As for Jian Danâ¦
âWow, Granny Xia, this isâ¦??â
Jian Dan looked at the cheongsam Granny Xia handed herâ¦
âMy husband had made this for me when we got married back then. I couldnât bear to wear it after that, so itâs like new.â
Grandpa Xia had it made for Granny?Although the color was very dated, the cheongsam was very beautiful.
âI canât wear this!â
This had great sentimental value to Granny Xia. How could she wear it?
âItâs been in the chest far too long. Itâs time for it to come out and get some fresh air. I think youâll look very good in it. Put it on.â
âAlright then!â
Seeing that Granny Xia was very insistent, Jian Dan did not reject her anymoreâ¦
When Grandpa saw Jian Dan in the cheongsam⦠âIf Liyuan sees you, he definitely wonât be able to take his eyes off you.â
âReally?â
She had not seen him for two days. She really missed him!
âThatâs for sure! Alright, pack up and letâs go!â
âOkay!â
The three of them finally embarked on their return journeyâ¦n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
