The temperature was still very low, and there was a thick layer of frost on the wall outside the house, but the work of the expedition team was in full swing and in an orderly manner.

"Teacher, you've been standing there for hours, why don't you take a break first?" Seeing that Lu Mingming kept looking out the window in a daze, Ouyang Yingying couldn't bear it, and reminded her.

"Hmm!" Probably feeling a little tired, Lu Mingming unexpectedly agreed, but as soon as she turned her head, she was also stunned, "Girl, have you cried?"

"Hmm, no, I didn't!" Ouyang Yingying seemed to want to cover up something, but her slightly reddened eyes were not convincing, but fortunately, Lu Mingming didn't plan to get to the bottom of it.

"Please make me a cup of tea. Lu Mingming planned to relieve the awkward atmosphere in the air, so ordered. Ouyang Yingying heard this, turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

"Knock knock!" the knock on the door outside was so sudden that they were all startled.

"Hmm, Chen Ruoxi, what's wrong with you?" After opening the door, the scene in front of her was something Ouyang Yingying had never expected.

I saw Chen Ruoxi standing alone at the door, her eyes were red and swollen, her eyes were sobbing with her two hands, and there was some snot left on the tip of her nose.

'If this is seen by those boys, her image will be greatly reduced, right?' Ouyang Yingying thought to herself. But seeing Chen Ruoxi like this, she felt that she had no choice but to ignore it.

"European ..... Teacher Ouyang, I.... I'm looking for... Find Teacher Lu!" Chen Ruoxi said with a sob.

"Okay, Mr. Lu is here, you can come in first. Ouyang Yingying comforted Chen Ruoxi and brought Chen Ruoxi in, "You sit down for a while, I'll make you a cup of tea." ”

She moved a stool for Chen Ruoxi, asked her to sit down, and turned around to boil water in the small kitchen inside.

"Teacher Lu, right... I'm sorry, I lied......" Chen Ruoxi apologized to Lu Mingming as soon as she came.

"It's okay, Ruoxi, you cry first and speak slowly. Looking at her appearance, Lu Mingming couldn't get angry at all, 'Maybe I should be angry, right?' she laughed at herself in her heart.

"Hmm..... Hmm!" Chen Ruoxi nodded.

After slowing down for a while, Chen Ruoxi also tried to calm down, and at this time, Ouyang Yingying also came over with two cups of black tea.

"What happened?" Seeing that she had almost eased up, Ouyang Yingying asked the long-doubted question for Lu Mingming.

"Here's the thing, before Zhao Chengyang said that he knew that there was a transfer of the position of the director, and a position was vacated, and he wanted his father to promote my father as an excuse, so he asked me out to negotiate. Although Chen Ruoxi still sobbed from time to time, at least he could already speak smoothly.

Then he told me to find a place where no one was around. But there were basically people along the way, and before we knew it, we arrived at the shrine. When he and I walked to the backyard, he suddenly took my hand and said that he wanted to live here with me. At this, she sniffled again and paused.

"I rejected him on the grounds that we were not fit to talk about it, and when I found out what he was up to, I was angry and wanted to go back. But I didn't expect him to suddenly grab me, pull me back, and say let me think about it, if I agree, my father's career will be bright. ”

"But I felt like he was threatening me, and I was so angry that somehow I couldn't help but slap him. Later, I didn't expect him to suddenly go crazy and slap me back, and dragged me to the well and said that he wanted me to be his concubine, otherwise he would kill me. ”

"But what we didn't expect was that Lu Feng'er didn't know why he was there, he rushed out and punched Zhao Chengyang hard, taking advantage of this opportunity, he asked me to go first, and then dealt with Zhao Chengyang alone. Teacher Lu, although Lu Feng'er did it first, he was there to save me, not as Zhao Chengyang said, it's just.... It's just that I didn't expect this to happen later. Speaking of this, Chen Ruoxi's eyes turned red again.

"Then why didn't you point it out directly?" Lu Mingming was also a little resentful about this, but seeing her like this, she had already forgiven her in her heart.

"When I was there, I saw Zhao Chengyang's eyes, and I suddenly remembered what he said to threaten me, so I didn't dare. Chen Ruoxi is like a frightened deer, and the cold temperament before is gone" Just now, Zhao Chengyang also came to my bedroom to look for me, but I didn't open the door, so he stuffed a note for me. ”

She took it out of her pocket and handed it to Lu Mingming, Lu Mingming opened it and saw a paragraph written on it: 'You did a good job, I am not to blame for the previous incidents.' ’

"But I've been tossing and turning in bed for a long time, and I always feel uneasy, so I want to come and talk to you, I'm sorry, I'm really sorry!" she seemed to be venting something, and when she said she was sorry, she lowered her head and covered her eyes with her hands, and cried directly.

"Okay, I got it. Don't worry, I'll take care of this. Lu Mingming touched Chen Ruoxi's head and comforted.

"Teacher Lu, Lu Feng'er..... Is he okay?" Although Chen Ruoxi knew that he might not have an answer if he asked, he was still unwilling to give up a glimmer of hope.

"Judging from the current situation, I really can't say. Lu Mingming also sighed, she couldn't figure out what she thought about it, "Zhao Chengyang said that he fell into the well, but this is the most unlikely situation. There's no explanation for a man who disappeared from the well with his bare hands, right? So now we guess that he got some clue to find something. ”

Lu Mingming felt that something was still missing, so she added, "But before Lu Feng'er disappears, he shouldn't be in danger of life." ”

"That, that's good!" Chen Ruoxi's big stone hanging in her heart was also put down, so she stood up and bowed slightly to Lu Mingming, "Thank you, Teacher Lu!"

"You go back and have a good rest, you should have been notified, we will be going back soon." Seeing this, Lu Mingming sent her to the door.

"Well, Mr. Lu, thank you so much!" said all this, seeing that her mood also improved a little, and thanked Lu Mingming again.

After sending Chen Ruoxi away, "I didn't expect Zhao Chengyang to be such a person!" After listening to Chen Ruoxi's words, Ouyang Yingying's impression of Zhao Chengyang also changed greatly.

"Hey, I have long felt that that kid is not a good thing, but he didn't pay attention to it at the beginning!" Lu Mingming was also annoyed, but immediately, she shook her head and didn't think about it, "Yingying, you should rest early, there will be some tiredness next." ”

"Okay. Ouyang Yingying nodded.

More than ten hours had passed, but the sky had never changed, it was still so white—as white as snow, and it was one with the snow in the distance.

"Have all the people arrived?" In a clearing, Lu Mingming's voice sounded, but it was not as powerful as it was at the beginning. Even after resting for so long, the blow hadn't fully recovered her.

"It's here!" It was not Zhao Chengyang or Chen Ruoxi who spoke, but Qiao Qianqian. Except for Lu Feng'er. But she didn't say it.

Regarding Lu Fenger's experience, her heart was also blocked. Thinking of the way he talked and laughed with her before, as well as the way he played with Wang Hao, she felt that her nose was also sour.

Although others don't know, she knows very well that Lu Feng'er and Wang Hao look bohemian and uninhibited, and they don't have a good shape for a day, but their hearts are very gentle - almost completely opposite to Zhao Chengyang, she sees this more thoroughly than other girls, including Chen Ruoxi and Ouyang Yingying.

"Originally, we planned to stay for a few more days, but as you know, after something happened to Lu Feng'er, we decided to send you back first, and I can only say sorry for this. Lu Mingming said to them briefly, and seeing that no one responded, she casually explained again, "Okay, let's get in the car!"

The way back was not as torturous as before because it was driving, but there was a hint of gloom on everyone's face. There was silence along the way, the silence was terrible, except for the engine to 'whine' with the wind of the far north.
