"Zifeng, why do you sound so strange? I hardly recognize you. You haven’t been deceived into joining some pyramid scheme, dreaming of getting rich, have you? You just keep making people worry!" Ye Shu was so anxious she felt like scolding him fiercely. He had no idea about staying grounded.
"Listen, sister, what are you thinking? Am I really that disappointing in your eyes, Ye Zifeng? Okay, I called you just to tell you that I’m fine. You don’t need to worry about me. I’ll get in touch with you soon, that’s all for now, bye."
"Wait, Ye Zifeng, wait! No matter what, you need to clarify things for me. Hello? Hello, hello!" Ye Shu wanted to say more, but Ye Zifeng had already hung up the phone.
When she tried to call again, his phone was already switched off.
Frustrated, Ye Shu paced in circles, thinking that he had never been before!
Seeing this, Handsome B said, "What’s up, is the kid not listening to you anymore? I’m not trying to offend you, village beauty, but people grow up and should have their own ideas. Why must they live their life according to your plans, right?"
"But he’s not letting me know anything now. He also didn’t go to college, which would worry anyone, right?"
"Really?" A playful smile curved up the corners of Handsome B’s mouth. "What if one day I disappear without contacting you? Would you worry about me?"
"Why would I worry about you? I’d be more worried about what poor girl might be getting into trouble..." After saying that, Ye Shu couldn’t help but sigh in relief. Although she hadn’t found him, at least she had received a call from him, knowing he was safe.
"Hey, Little Village Flower, since we’re up here, let me take you skiing. It’s okay if you’re not good at it; just hold on to me, and I’ll show you what’s meant by ’Flying Fox on the Snowy Mountain.’"
"I’m really not in the mood. Didn’t you hear the manager saying there’s going to be a typhoon? We should hurry and take the cable car down the mountain."
Before she could finish, alarms started sounding outside, and the tourists on the mountain weren’t taking it seriously.
Ye Shu suddenly felt a discomfort in her ears. "Handsome B, do you hear any strange noises?"
"It’s just the alarms. Don’t worry, they only predicted that the typhoon might pass by here, but it won’t come so soon."
As they were speaking, suddenly someone screamed, "Look, the tornado is coming!"
Ye Shu and Handsome B looked in the direction the person was pointing, and their hearts sank instantly!
This wasn’t merely a typhoon – it was a massively powerful tornado with a terrifying diameter, already advancing rapidly with destructive force.
"Shit!" Handsome B swore, yelling to the crowd, "What are you waiting for? Hurry to the cable car, move, don’t dawdle!"
Estimating the distance visually, if the cable car could speed up to its fastest, they were likely to reach the base of the mountain and avoid the tornado.
The trouble was that the panicked tourists were all over the place, hampering the efficiency of the cable car!
Realizing time was running out, Handsome B dragged out an enormous snowboard from the mountaintop equipment room, jumped on first, and then patted his back, "Little Village Flower, get on, don’t wait. Waiting any longer means a dead end!"
"Can this even work? I can’t ski!" Ye Shu, scared, didn’t know what to do.
"Just lie on my back and hold on tight, that’s all you need to do! Hurry!" Handsome B urged loudly.
