Origin System, I have a barren mountain

Chapter 14 Are you an employee of the company?

Hey, you big man, don't cry.

Cheng Yunmo wrote on the blackboard.

However, she immediately felt that since Liang Yu was now in trouble, she had to repay her benefactor no matter what.

Now that I can leave you and your situation can improve, I should think of other ways to help you control your parents so that you don't have to stay in your room all the time.

Liang Yu had grown accustomed to having someone she couldn't see by her side, but now, she said she was leaving.

"Are you really going to leave?"

Liang Yu asked.

Cheng Yunmo smiled and wrote on the blackboard, "Yes, I will definitely find a way to help my savior return to normal."

Cui Ming never expected that Cheng Yunmo's visit to him would be delayed by a whole day.

For some reason, he even brought a cup of milk tea when we met.

Upon seeing the milk tea, Cui Ming was unexpectedly filled with joy.

Cheng Yunmo watched awkwardly as Cui Ming got out of the car, and she handed him the milk tea.

"Yes, I'm sorry, this is the card Liang Yu gave me. I used his money to order the milk tea. Do you like it?"

Cui Ming did not refuse and took it to drink.

When Cheng Yunmo saw this scene, a hint of happiness appeared in his eyes.

She knew that this meant Cui Ming no longer disliked Liang Yu.

"If you ever see Liang Yu again, could you please speak to him properly? He's never had any friends."

Before Cui Ming knew about Liang Yu's situation, he disliked him quite a bit and even thought about how to make him suffer. But now that he knows about Liang Yu's situation, how could he still bully him?

"I'm not someone who has nothing better to do, so why would I dislike him?"

Cheng Yunmo couldn't help but mutter, "Nonsense, they didn't do anything before, you just dislike them."

As the two walked out of the underground parking lot, it started raining heavily.

Cui Ming's gaze, however, was fixed in a certain direction, his expression somewhat strange.

Cheng Yunmo didn't notice anything amiss. She was just looking down at her milk tea when suddenly the mist filled the air, giving her an illusory image of an open umbrella.

She hesitated for a moment, then held it in her hand and looked up at the misty umbrella.

The fog umbrella is surprisingly effective at blocking rain; the fog seems to have gained a touch of magic.

She was amazed by the fact that she had never seen anything like it before.

Cui Ming didn't look away, and then saw the mist umbrella in Cheng Yunmo's hand.

"This rain seems strange. Look over there."

Cui Ming began to speak.

Cheng Yunmo then glanced at the place Cui Ming pointed to, and in just one glance, he realized that the rainy place where he and Cui Ming were was completely different from that place.

"The rainwater is a slightly different color, why is that?"

“I discovered a long time ago that anyone who offended Mr. and Mrs. Liang, or who got caught in the rain, would have some bad luck for a period of time.”

Cheng Yunmo looked completely bewildered, feeling that what Cui Ming said was a bit outrageous.

"Everyone in this area is someone that Mr. and Mrs. Liang arranged to work at the company. Did you know that their company is not far from their residence, only a ten-minute walk away?"

Any questions?

Cheng Yunmo looked at Cui Ming with some confusion, genuinely not understanding what he was talking about.

"Including the lab staff, they all live here. If I'm not mistaken, the fog umbrella you just opened is something that has never happened before, right?"

Cheng Yunmo's gaze suddenly fell on a residential building not far away. She saw a woman being beaten by her husband at the building.

For some reason, Cheng Yunmo was also frightened by the husband's distorted and terrifying face.

The man looked like he had just come back from outside; his face and clothes were still dripping with rain.

Cheng Yunmo didn't know why she could see it so clearly. In an instant, she immediately thought of Mu Yun, and the terrifying scene from the past filled her with newfound fear.

She didn't know why she could see so clearly even though it was a rainy day.

She leaped up and floated towards the window, already holding onto it. She glanced at Cui Ming from afar.

Cui Ming did not leave, but followed her with his gaze.

For some reason, I suddenly felt much more at ease.

The curtains were slightly lifted by the wind, and the woman suddenly noticed that something seemed to be wrapped inside the curtains.

"I told you not to open the door right now! Tell me! Is someone hiding in the house?!"

A chair came crashing down on the woman's head, seemingly oblivious to the consequences of such impulsiveness!

Cheng Yunmo struck at that moment, kicking the man in the stomach!

For some reason, she, who should have been ethereal, now seemed to be able to touch a living person. After she kicked him hard, the man fell to the ground with a wail.

Cheng Yunmo stood aside, his eyes also cautiously fixed on the woman.

Over the years, she has seen many people, regardless of gender, who dislike others meddling in their household affairs.

However, Cheng Yunmo also noticed that the woman couldn't see her at all; she had just been looking at the curtains by the window she had just passed.

"what!"

The man opened his eyes wide in terror and looked around frantically, but saw nothing.

Now, he simply couldn't stay at home any longer.

The man ran out of the house, forgetting to close the door.

At that moment, Cui Ming knocked on the open door. When he saw the woman who had been beaten looking at him, suppressing her fear, he quickly explained, "I meant no harm."

The woman stared blankly for a long time before nodding.

"Please take a seat."

It was only at this time that Cheng Yunmo realized that the environment around him actually seemed somewhat out of place.

Although it doesn't look like a house that's only been lived in for a day or two, the surrounding decoration is very simple, except for a curtain that looks somewhat outdated for this time of year.

When the tea was served, the woman's tired expression was tinged with pain.

Cheng Yunmo couldn't quite describe her feelings. Just now, looking at this woman who was approaching middle age, she felt for some reason that she didn't belong to this era.

But that man just now, even though they were husband and wife, he seemed more like a modern soul to her. He really didn't look like one.

"He's gone. Why couldn't you have quietly left him while he was away from home?"

Cui Ming didn't mince words and directly asked the question that had been bothering him.

Cheng Yunmo turned to look at the woman, and saw that she seemed to be stunned for a moment, her eyes filled with disbelief as she looked at Cui Ming.

"If you are a member of the Liang Group, you should know that some of our people are not allowed to leave the house. If they do, they will be reported and end up in a fate worse than death."

Yu Manman stared at Cui Ming suspiciously, as if she had never seen him at the Liang Group before. "Are you someone from Young Master Liang Yu's laboratory?"
