New Return of the Pearl: The Group's Pet Swallow Flies

The barren mountain towers into the clouds. Because of the season, only some rare trees still have some green color, while the rest have turned withered yellow, looking quite barren.

There were a few people standing halfway up the mountain. They were Duanmu Qing and others who were returning with their guests.

Hearing what the third and fourth brothers said, Duanmu Qing met Huo Chengyue's puzzled gaze, blushed inexplicably and felt embarrassed. He couldn't help but take a step forward and kicked each of them.

"What are you yelling about? This is Miss Huo, please stop yelling."

The second one had a delicate appearance and was about the same age as Duanmu Qing, in his thirties or forties. After hearing what the Pavilion Master said, he chuckled and quickly changed his tone, "Yes, yes, hello, Miss Huo."

The third brother had a mature face and a burly figure. He scratched his head and said innocently, "Hello, Miss Huo. I'm really sorry."

Huo Chengyue touched her nose awkwardly. "Actually, I'm not a girl anymore. I have a son. If you don't mind, just call me Huo Chengyue. Calling me by my name is much better than calling me a girl."

The second and third brothers glanced at Duanmu Qing, their eyes full of dissatisfaction with him. He hadn't even gotten the lady over with, slept with her, and even didn't even give her a name. What a scumbag.

Duanmu Qing is really wronged. How can you give him a status when you have only known him for one day?

"Ahem, stop being so funny and go back quickly."

He coughed twice to hide his embarrassment, and asked the two to get ready so that the guests could take the cable car up the mountain.

Huo Chengyue looked at the cableway made of mechanisms and could only sigh that the ancients had very smart minds. Anyway, they only heard a series of clicking sounds, and the cableway they were sitting on began to slowly rise.

Little Swallow was held in the arms, watching the cable car slowly rising, getting higher and higher, and farther and farther away from the ground. She didn't feel scared, but excited. It was her first time going up a mountain like this, it was so novel.

Huo Yuqi was no less excited, dancing with excitement.

"Wow, we are so tall, so tall, Sister Xiaoyanzi, do you see that? We are so tall."

Xiaoyanzi smiled and nodded, and said in a baby voice, "Yeah, it's really high."

She was held in Huo Chengyue's arms, watching them climb higher and higher, gradually approaching the top of the mountain. The second and third brothers were left at the bottom to operate the mechanism.

Anyway, she had no idea how this mechanism worked. She just thought it was very strange. She thought that she could brag about it to Ziwei and the others after returning to the palace.

Perhaps because of the previous issue of addressing the second and third brothers, Duanmu Qing did not dare to look at Huo Chengyue for a moment.

He had already arranged people to investigate, and the matter was clearly investigated. The woman had been missing for a while and later returned to the Huo family in Beijing. Unfortunately, the Huo family despised her for being unmarried and pregnant, and kicked her out of the house. Afterwards, Huo Chengyue took the child with her, and because of her good medical skills, she was accepted as an apprentice by the traveling Doctor Li and became the successor of the Divine Doctor Valley. After that, the woman traveled around with the child, or helped the child find a father.

As it turned out, the woman had never been married, and the child was born after she had sex with him that night. Because of the child, she suffered a lot of insults and disgust. Although he was forced by her at the beginning and he was half-hearted, the woman was the one who suffered anyway.

It is especially difficult for women when they have lost their virginity and have a child.

Now that he saw how hard her life was, he wanted to marry her right away. But he was afraid that she would think that he was doing this because of the child, so he only wanted to be responsible for the child. So he kept holding back, and he just didn't know how to tell her.

In order to comfort her, he had to bring her to Qingyun Pavilion and let her live in his own territory for a while so that they could get to know each other better.

Huo Chengyue held Xiaoyanzi in her arms and chatted with her happily. She noticed Duanmu Qing's occasional glances at her from the corner of her eye, but she pretended not to see it. After all, she was also struggling now.

She just followed the man to his base. She even blamed herself for being so stupid. What if the man had a wife or concubine? After all, men's words are lies. How could she be fooled by his crocodile tears and believe his words?

What if the situation in Qingyun Pavilion is different from what she imagined, what should she do, and what should her son, Huo Yuqi, do?

Could you bear to leave him without a father?

Xiaoyanzi ignored the awkward atmosphere and chatted happily with Huo Yuqi. The mountain scenery and the mountain air were so nice.

The wobbly cable car finally reached the top of the mountain, and the somewhat awkward atmosphere finally ended.

Duanmu Qing hurried downstairs and put Huo Yuqi in his arms on the ground. Then he turned around and took Xiaoyanzi from Huo Chengyue's arms, and then helped Huo Chengyue down.

The moment Huo Chengyue's fingers touched his, they both felt like they were electrocuted and their hearts skipped a beat. Their eyes met for a moment and then looked away.

Xiaoyanzi looked at the scenery in front of her, her mouth opened in shock, her eyes full of amazement.

On this towering mountain, there were no flying snowflakes as imagined, nor the desolate and vicissitudes of life at the foot of the mountain. Instead, there were flowers everywhere. There were many wooden houses not far away, and some trees on the side with chirping birds perched on them.

It's simply a paradise on earth, a great place to live in seclusion.

Huo Chengyue and Huo Yuqi were also shocked.

Huo Chengyue muttered to herself, so this is the kind of paradise on earth, the hermit land in novels, it is so beautiful.

Duanmu Qing couldn't help but smile proudly when he saw the shocked looks on the three people's faces. This was something he and a group of friends who knew about mechanisms had worked hard to create, and it was also thanks to the mechanical skills of a hermit master. Otherwise, it would have been impossible to make such a sophisticated mechanism that could allow people to go up and down.

"Welcome to Qingyun Pavilion."

Not far away, a group of men came running over with smiles on their faces and clear eyes. They were very excited to see the guests who came to Qingyun Pavilion for the first time.

One by one, they came forward and introduced themselves.

Obviously, they looked like a group of steady men, but when you approached them, they became like a group of idiots, making a lot of noise. It was a bit embarrassing and you didn't know how to respond, but at the same time you felt relaxed because of the sincere smiles on their faces.

It's as if coming here is like going home.

"Qingyun Pavilion, welcome to come. Coming here is like coming home, there's no need to be restrained."
