Three big shots are proposing to me at the same time? Are you crazy?
Chapter 57: Jinpeng Mountain
"Him?" Jiang Huan shrugged. "I don't know where he went, and I'm too lazy to ask him."
"so……"
“I’ll go with you tonight,” Jiang Huan said.
Anyway, it's all the same: we're going to see which business people are in the south of the city and try to find out some information. It doesn't matter who we go with.
Upon hearing this, Qian Rui smiled and said, "That's perfect, shall we go shopping? Buy some clothes for tonight?"
"You're such a big CEO, why are you so free? You keep asking me to go shopping every day?" Jiang Huan said, somewhat amused and exasperated.
Previously, Qian Rui was managing the Qian Group, always a cold and aloof female CEO, and busy with work every day.
But ever since they recognized each other, Qian Rui seems to have stopped managing her business and comes to visit her whenever she has free time.
Qian Rui's smile was somewhat awkward. "Actually... my mother said that I don't need to manage the group's business for the time being. Ever since that old guy Mu Linfeng transferred the shares to me and my mother, coupled with some news about him and the Xu family, the Xu and Mu families went bankrupt, and the group's business is getting bigger and bigger. My mother found someone to manage it and told me to take a good rest."
Indeed it is.
When they were working hard before, it was just the mother and daughter, so they kept putting in the effort themselves and dared not slack off.
Now that the Qian Group is growing bigger and bigger, my mother said that she should take a good rest for a while to relax her tense mind over the years.
Hearing this, Jiang Huan nodded: "That's a good thing. You can buy tickets and go out for a trip. Apart from business trips, you probably haven't had a proper vacation in all these years, have you?"
Qian Rui hummed in agreement, nodding with a hint of regret, "Yeah, I didn't get to travel properly... By the way, Huanhuan, if we go on a trip, would you come with me?"
"It depends. If I don't have anything important to do, I can go out with you." Jiang Huan smiled, after all, she also wanted to leave Nancheng and see the outside world.
"I knew it, you're the best." Qian Rui giggled, her previous big sister demeanor completely gone. She clung to Jiang Huan's arm affectionately, just like an innocent girl of about ten years old.
Seeing this, Jiang Huan simply smiled and didn't say anything more.
Qianrui had planned to go shopping in the afternoon, but she suddenly received a phone call and had to leave because she had some business matters to attend to.
Just then, Jiang Huan thought of refining the medicinal herbs into pills to treat her grandfather's hidden ailment.
Conventional medical treatments are far less effective than a single elixir.
This is why both Grandpa An and Grandpa Mu wanted to pursue the path of cultivation!
Back in her room, Jiang Huan initially intended to refine medicine there, but looking at all the things and walls in the room, she hesitated for a moment and decided to find another place.
But if she were to go out, she would need to tell her grandfather, and she was thinking about what reason to give him.
After thinking it over, she made a phone call to Butler Wang.
"Miss Fifth."
"Uncle Wang, I need to go out for a while. Please keep it a secret from Grandpa. Just say... I'm going to see Qianrui."
"Alright, Miss, please go ahead!"
"Thank you, Uncle Wang."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Huan packed everything she needed into her backpack, changed into some comfortable clothes, and left the room.
Unbeknownst to her, after she hung up the phone, Butler Wang went in to report the matter to Old Master Jiang.
"Send someone to secretly protect Huanhuan."
“Master, this old servant believes that you do not need to send anyone to protect the Fifth Miss.”
"Hmm?" Old Jiang looked up, his gaze shifting from the book to Butler Wang's face.
Butler Wang said, "Given Fifth Miss's keen senses, the people we sent are clumsy and might easily be discovered by her..."
He didn't need to say anything more; Old Master Jiang already understood.
Old Jiang remained silent for a long while before bowing his head again: "If anything happens to Huanhuan, you will be held responsible."
Since Butler Wang has said so, he will believe him for the time being.
As a daughter of the Jiang family, he knew Huanhuan wouldn't be too bad off, so he decided to let her go out and try her luck. If anything went wrong, he would back her up!
……
Jinpeng Mountain.
"Fifth Miss, please be careful."
"Okay." Jiang Huan nodded and said to Xiang Bei and Xiang Nan, "You two just wait for me here."
"Yes!"
After giving his instructions, Jiang Huan looked up at the towering mountain road in front of him.
This is Jinpeng Mountain, a wild mountain in the southern part of the city.
Legend has it that this place was once the temporary residence of the Golden-Winged Roc, hence the name 'Golden Roc Mountain'.
A developer once wanted to develop this place into a tourist attraction, but the staff who went into the mountains were all exhausted and fell seriously ill when they returned home.
Some people say that there are spirits or monsters in these mountains that can drain people's energy, making them unsuitable as scenic spots, so everyone avoids them like the plague.
Of course, some daring outdoor enthusiasts have tried to challenge this mountain, but they all returned in a sorry state after only a short distance and never went any closer.
The reason she chose this place was certainly not because of these strange remarks, but because Jinpeng Mountain has a rich spiritual energy, just like Wanshi Park, except that the spiritual energy of Jinpeng Mountain is purer.
Pills refined in this environment, while not top-grade, will not be inferior.
With her backpack on, Jiang Huan walked into the mountains without changing her expression, just like a hiker.
She hadn't gone far when an old man with one leg suddenly appeared. He looked her up and down with his cane. "Young lady, this isn't a place for you to challenge alone. It's very dangerous ahead."
Jiang Huan chuckled, "It's alright, thank you for your warning, Grandpa."
After saying that, she walked straight ahead.
Seeing this, the old man didn't continue to stop him. Instead, he sighed and shook his head. "It's true that you can't persuade a damned ghost with kind words, but I guess he'll be out soon."
However, after leaving the old man's sight and confirming that no one was around, Jiang Huan used her lightness skill to fly up the mountain.
walk?
That is impossible!
She has internal strength, lightness skill, and true qi. If she doesn't use them, what's the point of her coming here?
At this moment, a drone, which was intended to explore Jinpeng Mountain, instead captured a graceful figure flying in the trees and heading straight for the mountaintop.
Just as the drone's camera was about to check the girl's face, the signal suddenly became interfered with, startling the drone owner who quickly recalled it, since the equipment was not cheap.
The drone owner, seeing the bizarre scene on the screen, was horrified, thinking he had seen a ghost. He quickly grabbed the drone and slunk down the mountain.
Just as I was descending the mountain and nearing the bottom, I encountered an elderly man with one leg, leaning on a cane.
The old man sized up the young man in front of him, his gaze settling on the drone the latter was holding. "Still filming relentlessly? What did you film today?"
This kid comes here every day to tinker with the drone and takes pictures every day, but he never gets any pictures. I don't know what he's so persistent about!
After hearing this, the young man swallowed hard, lowered his voice, and said in a panic, "You have no idea, I just filmed a ghost! It really was a ghost! It was flying in the trees, flying all the way up to the mountaintop, it was terrifying..."
