"It's been so long since you came back, and I didn't recognize you. I'm sorry, but I used to wear that and I'm sure I'll recognize you later."

After hearing Gu Chen's explanation, Jiang Ru realized that he had really moved next door to her on purpose. Jiang Ru had not forgotten anything about her childhood, but Gu Chen had changed so much after growing up that she could not recognize him at all. She apologized for not recognizing Gu Chen the first time.

"It doesn't matter. As long as you still remember what happened when we were kids, that's enough. I also want to apologize to you for not being with you in my true identity."

Gu Chen didn't care. He stayed with Jiang Ru all the time, waiting for Jiang Ru to recognize him as he was back then.

There was a time when he was abandoned by his parents in a remote place. He was unruly during that time and even his parents didn't want to discipline him. Later, it was because of his excellent grades that he got the opportunity to study abroad, but he always remembered Jiang Ru and kept her in his heart for many years.

At that time, Gu Chen's personality was too withdrawn, and only Jiang Ru was willing to play with him. The two were childhood sweethearts. Jiang Ru was the only ray of light for Gu Chen in the darkness. After confirming that Jiang Ru had him in her heart, Gu Chen took the initiative to agree to the interview arranged by Jiang Ru.

"You asked me to agree to an interview, right? I promise."

Jiang Ru was happy to see Gu Chen agreed to her.

After confirming that Gu Chen's identity was related to her childhood, Jiang Ru was no longer so nervous. She said with a relaxed look, "No wonder you fell in love with me. It turned out to be you. It's great that we meet again after so many years!"

"Let's go, it's getting late, let's go back quickly."

After watching a fireworks show for a long time, the two people decided to go back.

Gu Chen finally fulfilled the promise he made to Jiang Ru in his childhood, and the bond between them began.

The two of them went back together, but as soon as they turned around, they suddenly heard bursts of huge roars.

"what!"

Such a huge roar frightened Jiang Ru so much that she screamed.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here."

Gu Chen took Jiang Ru's hand and drove back quickly.

I just started the car and it ran out of gas during the night while I was in the car.

"Oh no, the car's out of gas."

Gu Chen was a little annoyed. He had too much business to do recently and was so busy that he didn't even notice that the car gas was out.

"What should I do?"

The car couldn't start and stopped halfway up the mountain. Jiang Ru was very worried.

"It's okay, we'll try to call for help."

Gu Chen calmed down and took out his cell phone.

After the huge roar, the cell phone signal was lost and neither of the two people's phones could be reached.

"I had no signal on my phone and couldn't even call the police."

Jiang Ru tried to dial 110, but found that the call could not be answered.

My phone is fully charged now, but there is no signal and it is useless.

"I'm sorry, I'm so unlucky and have caused you trouble."

Jiang Ru felt extremely guilty. Every time he was with her, something bad would happen. She felt really bad.

"This isn't your fault. I think we've encountered a mudslide. Let's just keep our phones with us."

Gu Chen guessed that there was a mudslide on the edge of the mountain on the way back, so he kept it on his body for safety.

On the contrary, he was very calm. When something happened, he had no intention of blaming Jiang Ru, but tried to find a way to deal with it as soon as possible.

"Let's sleep in the car first and wait for the rescue team to find us the next morning."

It was getting late, and the only option was to sleep in the car, and wait until the next day when someone would come to find him.

"Well, then let's not waste our energy and just rest here in the car." Jiang Ru agreed that without the heating, they couldn't consume too much energy, otherwise there would be accidents.

"Sleep well, I will stay by your side."

Gu Chen found a quilt from the car and gave the only one to Jiang Ru, and it was a single quilt.

The car had run out of gas and now there was no heating. Even with a blanket, Jiang Ru was still very cold, so cold that she couldn't sleep at all. She curled up and shivered the whole time.

"Are you cold?" Gu Chen tilted his head slightly and found that Jiang Ru's body was shaking.

Jiang Ru nodded, feeling extremely flustered.

It was pitch black all around, how could I not be scared!

"You won't be cold this way. Go to sleep."

He took off the only suit jacket he was wearing and covered Jiang Ru with it.

All the things that could provide warmth had been found and were placed on Jiang Ru. Jiang Ru had no choice but to go to sleep, hoping she could fall asleep.

But because it was too cold, I couldn't sleep in the wilderness. I didn't dare to bother him, so I just closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep.

Although his body was still shivering from the cold, Gu Chen did not sleep. He was worried that Jiang Ru would be scared, so he stayed with her. Seeing that Jiang Ru was still very cold, he hugged her.

The two of them hugged each other to keep warm. Before Jiang Ru could react, she was still confused, but Gu Chen had already held the girl in his arms. Feeling his hot heartbeat in her arms, her body seemed to be less cold. When he held her, Jiang Ru had not slept at all and did not dare to open her eyes.

The main reason was that it was too embarrassing. There was no other way, so I could only pretend to sleep in Gu Chen's arms. Now that I'm awake, isn't the atmosphere even more embarrassing?

She simply pretended to be asleep and did not try to stop him. Besides, Jiang Ru didn't want to push him away. The warmth in his embrace was really comfortable. Gradually, with his company, Jiang Ru finally fell asleep without realizing it.

The next morning, Jiang Ru was awakened by the sunlight. She woke up in an awkward position in Gu Chen's arms and quickly pushed him away.

Gu Chen was awakened by Jiang Ru's actions and apologized awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I saw you were too cold yesterday, so..."

"It's okay, it was just a special situation yesterday, haha."

Jiang Ru could only smooth things over for him with an embarrassed look on her face and quickly changed the subject, feeling particularly guilty.

"It's daybreak now, how should we get back?"

Right now, they should focus on how to get back.

Jiang Ru was worried. Her phone had no signal, her car was out of gas, and no one around had come up. She looked distressed: "Few people come up this mountain now. How long do we have to wait for them to be discovered?"

"My phone has a no-signal positioning system installed, so it can display the location even without a signal. I guess my special assistant is already looking for us."

Gu Chen reassured her not to worry. He remained calm and composed throughout. He knew that a billionaire's disappearance for even one night was a major event. He was probably searching relentlessly for him, and he believed they would be found soon.
