"Who?" Gu Zhou looked around.

However, the voice was all too familiar to Gu Cai.

He looked incredulous and called out to the vast surroundings, "Su Ran?"

A response was received quickly.

"it's me."

Gu Cai's expression turned even more astonished, then worried.

"Where are you? Come out quickly, it's dangerous here!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu turned his head again and saw a snow-white figure in his eyes.

She was tall and slender, wearing a white ski suit, with a helmet covered in a layer of snow-white fur, a face mask and sunglasses, and holding ski poles in her hand. Only her protective gear was black.

She stood there straight, as if she were about to become one with the snow and ice behind her.

“You said Linlang Mountain is a great place for skiing right now, so I came.”

She casually glided in front of him.

Gu Cai's voice cracked with horror as he asked, "You... you're here to ski?"

“Yes,” she said, circling around Gu Cai. “I must say, it’s pretty good to skate here. Going straight down from a high place is thrilling and exciting.”

Gu Cai was so frightened by her words that he lost all composure and, not caring how she got there, dragged this troublesome woman home.

"Ah Cai," came Gu Zhou's voice from behind, "who is she?"

Gu Cai then realized that his second brother was still there, and had no choice but to awkwardly introduce him.

“Friend, Su Ran.”

Gu Cai raised an eyebrow in surprise, "Su Ran? Is she the Su Ran I'm thinking of?"

Is there another Su Ran in the world like her?

Gu Cai twitched the corners of his lips, intending to pull Su Ran away.

"and many more."

Gu Cai's outstretched hand was blocked by Su Ran's hand, which was covered by a snow-white glove. Through her black sunglasses, Gu Cai could not see her expression.

Su Ran said casually, "Weren't you looking for someone just now?"

This was exactly what was troubling Gu Zhou and his team. Hearing Su Ran bring it up in such a relaxed tone, Gu Zhou had a slight problem with her.

"Don't tell me you can bring them back. Be careful what you say." Gu Zhou's thin lips were pressed tightly together.

Su Ran tilted her head. "I've always been a very discreet person, don't you think, Gu Cai?" She looked at the person next to her.

Gu Cai was caught in the middle, but he didn't feel embarrassed. He stood firmly on Su Ran's side. However, the fall of Hu Zi and the other two off the cliff was a matter of life and death, and he didn't want to ruin his family's impression of Su Ran from their first meeting.

So he changed the subject.

"Let's leave this to the rescue team." The long-sleeved man, who often played guitar, gently tugged at the hem of Su Ran's ski suit. "Since it's your first time at my house, won't you come in for some tea?"

His long eyelashes fluttered slightly; he looked a little nervous.

Su Ran rested her chin on her hand and made a decision in less than three seconds.

"No."

Gu Caixin felt a chill run down his spine, but then he heard the girl's gentle voice again.

There are three more people hiding down there.

He quickly realized who the three people Su Ran was referring to were, and exclaimed in shock, "You saw them?"

"I saw them, I scooped them up, they're in the cave down there."

"You saved them?"

"Yeah." Su Ran nodded honestly, "I saw them on the way up the mountain and just helped them out."

"How exactly did you get up here?" Gu Zhou couldn't help but interrupt their conversation.

Su Ran pointed to her legs, "Crawl."

Lying—that was Gu Zhou's first thought.

Linlang Mountain was covered in snow, making it harder than climbing to heaven. Especially for someone like Su Ran, who came alone in ski gear without any high-tech equipment, it seemed even less convincing.

In fact, Su Ran did lie.

She didn't climb up.

She flew up.

Although Gu Zhou didn't believe it, for the time being, Su Ran had undoubtedly brought him good news, and he was willing to choose to believe it.

Although the Gu family has a rescue team, the heavy snow has blocked the mountains and disrupted city roads, so it will take a long time for the rescue team to arrive. It's highly likely that by the time the rescue team arrives, Hu Zi and the other two will already be exhausted.

Gu Zhou stood with his hands on his hips, helpless. "Fine, we'll do it your way. You saved all three of them, but now only you came up. Where are the others?"

"Why are you worrying about this? Didn't I already say they're in a cave?" Su Ran stepped forward, patted Gu Cai on the shoulder, and said to Gu Zhou, "What you need to do now is prepare food, water, and warm clothing to welcome their arrival."

"What do you mean? They'll come up on their own?"

"You'll find out tonight." Su Ran patted her skis after saying that. "I'm not going to argue with you anymore. I'm going to enjoy the scenery at the top of Linlang Mountain."

Gu Cai hurriedly followed, "I'll go with you."

"You can ski?"

"I don't know how, but you can teach me." Gu Cai looked at Su Ran with innocent and pitiful eyes like a puppy, and quietly tugged at the hem of her clothes with one hand.

Su Ran smirked and vigorously rubbed Gu Cai's head, turning his chestnut-brown, slightly curly short hair into a bird's nest, making him look even more like a pitiful little puppy waiting for love.

Her tone was harsh, "Be good, call me 'Grandma' and I'll take you upstairs."

The boy in front of her was a year older than her, and he called her "Grandma." She didn't know if he was getting the better deal, but she was definitely the one who benefited.

Almost the next second, Gu Cai opened his lips and uttered three words, "Grandma."
