Chapter 175 Meeting by chance and walking together

As an excellent assistant, Huang Yuanyuan was very foresight. When helping Mingdai pack her luggage, she anticipated that Mingdai and the others might go hiking, so she prepared light and warm mountaineering clothing and non-slip boots in advance.

Ming Dai changed her clothes, and seeing that time was running out, she hurriedly left a note to Xia Ling explaining the situation and went out alone.

When she walked to the hotel lobby, she met the staff and asked about the mountain climbing. The staff specifically pointed out the way for her.

"There are signs along the road. If a customer is afraid to go alone, our staff can go with you."

"Thank you, no need."

Mingdai shook her head and refused with a smile, and was about to turn around.

"Miss Mingdai!" The other party hurriedly called out her name.

Ming Dai was surprised. She remembered Xia Ling's name when she checked into the hotel. How could the staff know her?

The other party shyly handed over the brochure: "Can you...sign your name? I like your TV series very much!"

Ming Dai suddenly smiled, and then readily agreed, leaving her signature on the other party's pamphlet.

"Do you need a photo?"

Mingdai's proposal was full of temptation, but the staff member gritted her teeth and refused.

"No, this is too greedy. If the manager sees it... the signature is already great! Thank you!"

Watching the shy young lady run away, Mingdai couldn't help but feel very good. She felt happy all the way out of the hotel door.

The snow has begun to fall at night, and a faint light will be seen in the sky. There is still some time before sunrise.

Go around to the back of the hotel and you will see the entrance to the hiking trail. The steps are built along the mountain and are relatively steep, but there are iron chains on both sides of the trail as guardrails.

Mingdai wore gloves and non-slip boots, and was wrapped so tightly that no wind could get through. She held on to the iron railing and climbed up the steps little by little.

The steps were covered with snow, and Mingdai's boots made a crunching sound all the way.

Ming Dai walked slowly and steadily.

From time to time, I admire the scenery on both sides, and the cool air blows into my lungs with the wind. The slight sleepiness from getting up early completely disappears, and my whole body feels refreshed. Those complicated thoughts seem to be washed away, and my soul returns to the tranquility of the mountains and forests after snow.

After walking for almost ten minutes, Mingdai felt a little tired.

I have become younger after rebirth, and my physical fitness has improved, but I have not kept up with my exercise, otherwise I would not have started to pant after just ten minutes of climbing.

How about asking Sister Su to arrange a Pilates teacher after we go back? Mingdai thought to herself.

"Zhizhizhi."

The tinny sounds of small animals drifted into my ears.

Mingdai looked around and saw a squirrel standing on a branch not far away, holding a big fluffy tail like a dandelion, tilting its head and looking at her with its dark eyes.

Ming Dai opened her eyes wide in surprise, held her breath and quietly approached.

The squirrel was not afraid of people, and deliberately lowered its little head, as if observing Mingdai, an uninvited guest.

Its reaction gave Mingdai courage, and she felt naughty like a child. She simply stretched out a finger to touch the big furry tail and experience the wonderful touch.

The little squirrel probably noticed it and suddenly jumped twice on the branch.

The bare branches pressed against the thick snow. With the strength of the little squirrel's jumping, the snow fell and hit Mingdai who happened to be standing under the tree.

Ming Dai only had time to close her eyes, and when she opened them again - her head, face, shoulders... were all covered with broken snow.

Fortunately, her hiking clothes were waterproof and the collar was tied firmly enough to prevent the snow from falling into her neck.

And the culprit, the little squirrel, turned around and fled in fear of the crime after the prank succeeded. The nimble little figure scurried around a few times before disappearing into the vast snow-capped mountains.

"You... bah bah."

Only then did Ming Dai realize that there was snow falling in her mouth, but it had already melted away.

It tastes sweet, seems pretty good?

This made her curious. She wanted to taste the ice hanging from the branches. Would it taste like popsicles?

As soon as Mingdai stretched out her hand, she heard a deep laugh floating in the wind.

It overflowed from the throat, as if he wanted to hold it back, but couldn't.

Found!

Mingdai retracted her hand as if she was electrocuted and immediately looked behind her.

It’s Xia Ling’s uncle and Mu!

He looks different today than last night.

If yesterday he was a famous figure from the Wei and Jin Dynasties who came out of ancient paintings, he was elegant, broad-minded and transparent; then today he is a famous sword with powerful momentum but hidden in its sheath. His pure black mountaineering suit is neatly cut and wrapped With his slender and perfect nine-headed body, he looks cool and free.

"Little...uncle?"

Ming Dai shouted awkwardly, like a child who was caught doing bad things.

After a while, I remembered how embarrassed I was all over, and I hurriedly shook off the snow particles on my body, causing my hair to become messy.

There was a smile in He Mu's eyes: "Sorry, I made no sound when I walked."

Mingdai paused: "No, no." She was too stupid.

He Mu saw her embarrassment.

Suddenly, he slowly approached, raised his hand, took down an iceberg from the branch, and handed it to Mingdai:

"Would you like to taste this?"

Ming Dai was stunned.

Looking at He Mu and then at Bing Ling he was holding through his black gloves, there was no reaction for a long time.

He Mu simply took a bite of the ice cream by himself first. His movements were so natural that those who didn't know thought he was tasting some kind of feast.

"Well, it tastes good."

Then I picked up a new one:

"Want to try?"

Mingdai took it slowly, glanced at He Mu, and then carefully put the ice into her mouth.

The crunch was as sweet as she guessed.

Because of He Mu's actions, the awkwardness when the two met disappeared.

Mingdai seemed to be more relaxed. After thanking her, she took the initiative to ask:

"My uncle also came to climb the mountain to watch the sunrise?"

"Well, let's take pictures by the way."

He Mu pointed to the SLR hanging on his shoulder.

Only then did Mingdai realize the existence of the camera. Because the body was pure black, it almost blended in with the color of He Mu's clothes. It was really inconspicuous.

Mingdai remembered: "By the way, Lingling said that uncle, you like photography, and she even learned it from you."

"Has she learned from me?" He Mu chuckled, "Well, if playing around with it for three days can be considered learning."

Listening to his description, Ming Dai seemed to have seen Xia Ling playing with the camera for three days and then quickly losing interest and throwing it away. She couldn't help but smile and smiled.

He Mu took the time to look down at his watch:

"Sunrise time is coming soon, we have to speed up."

"Ah, good!"

Mingdai didn't want to miss the perfect sunrise opportunity because of delays on the way.

There were only two people, Ming Dai and Mu, on the mountain road, so they naturally walked together.

The mountain road became more and more shaky as it went back, and there were two places where Mingdai even needed to use her hands and feet.

Compared with her, He Mu was as relaxed as walking on flat ground.
