Chapter 429: Running Away
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
That night, almost all the Chinese people did not sleep. Everyone was watching the live broadcast on TV.
Guo Miao became the pride of the Chinese. From then on, her name would be written in the textbooks of China. The website was also full of discussions about her.
However, Guo Miao didn’t feel anything. She just wanted to go back to her homestay and have a good sleep.
After all, the jet lag was too tiring!
Back in her room, Guo Miao quickly took a shower and lay on the bed. She muted her social media app and temporarily set her phone to “do not disturb” mode.
Almost everyone was calling her now. There were already 99+ messages on her social media. The post that she had posted a few months ago had been dug up by someone. It showed that there were almost 100 million reposts and comments.
At this moment, a voice message popped up on her phone.
Guo Miao put on her earphones and opened the voice message. It was from Tong Pei.
The man’s deep voice rang in her ear.
“Goodnight. Sleep early.”
This was the first time Tong Pei had sent Guo Miao a voice message since the two of them got together. His voice wasn’t the kind of low and pretentious voice that was full of bubbles, but it contained a bit of the tone of a teenager.
Guo Miao felt her face burning up.
As she listened to this voice, it was as if he was speaking in her ear.
“It’s morning in China now, right?” Guo Miao asked.
The other party didn’t say anything. Instead, he sent a picture. It was a scene taken in a high-rise in Beijing. A vibrant red sun rose from the tall buildings, illuminating the entire city in a fiery red color.
“Did you work overtime?” Guo Miao asked.
“Yes.” Tong Pei’s voice was low.
For some reason, Guo Miao felt that Tong Pei seemed a little disappointed.
“What’s wrong? Did something happen?” Guo Miao asked in concern.
“No, but I’m thinking that 1 have to work harder. Otherwise, you’ll abandon me.” The jealousy in Tong Pei’s words amused Guo Miao.
Jealousy was a cute look on Tong Pei.
After chatting for a while, Guo Miao was ready to go to bed. Just then, she suddenly remembered something. She sat up from the bed and turned on her computer.
She didn’t seem to have seen Heleness at the awards ceremony today.
She turned on the computer and tapped a few times. Heleness’ phone number appeared on the screen.
Guo Miao dialed Heleness’ number, but her phone was switched off.
Guo Miao sent a message to the scholars of Country B. They also said that Heleness seemed to have gone to deal with her personal matters and that they did not contact her.
This genius from Fog City had always been mysterious. The representatives from Country B didn’t know if they should go and find Heleness.
What Heleness said at the banquet made Guo Miao feel uneasy.
She understood Heleness’ feelings.
When she returned to this time and space, her most important task was to protect her friend. However, her friend had already passed away, and all her efforts seemed to have been in vain.
She didn’t know how to return to that era, but death might be a way worth trying.
Thinking of this, Guo Miao quickly put on her clothes and went to look for the representative team of Country B.
Wendy, the teacher leading the team in Country B, was also a little anxious. After all, Heleness had been missing for two days and could not be contacted at all.
“When was the last time you saw her?” Guo Miao asked.
“After the banquet, she said that she wanted to stay in the mountains of Country N for two days. She seems to have booked a homestay in the mountains,” Wendy said.
It was currently snowing in Country N. If she went to the mountains, she might be trapped in snow for a long time.
Thinking of this, the ominous feeling in Guo Miao’s heart became even stronger. Heleness wasn’t going to stay in the mountains for two days. She was going to the mountains to seek death.
“Ms. Wendy, do you know where Heleness’ homestay is?” Guo Miao asked.
Wendy shook her head. “She didn’t tell me. It’s her privacy. 1 have no reason to pry.”
The people of Country B valued privacy and a sense of boundaries.
Guo Miao took out her computer and turned it on. She typed a few times on the computer, and the location on the map changed a few times. Finally, she stopped at a small house in the Russ Mountain Range of Country N.
Guo Miao frowned and looked at the flashing red dot on the map. The ominous feeling in her heart grew stronger..
