Chapter 472 No Way Out
Chapter 472 No Way Out
Si Yao was sitting in the passenger seat. The driver next to her was, of course, Si Ruyun. Today, Si Ruyun was a lot calmer than a while ago. She didn't say much while driving.
Because she went to sweep the graves and offer lanterns, Si Ruyun was still wearing a plain coat. Only when she heard Su Yang's voice on Si Yao's phone did she turn around and take a look.
Si Yao leaned sideways and said, "We're already heading to Sili Village. It'll probably take another hour or so to get there."
"Why did you rush out this morning without even having dinner?"
In the restroom of Daqingshan Ski Resort, Su Yang put out his cigarette and tied his belt: "It's too late to talk. You and Mr. Si must wait for me in Sili Village. I will be there around noon!"
"Remember, wait for me, definitely wait for me!"
Although Si Yao was a little puzzled, she still nodded: "Okay, okay, can't I just wait for you?"
Su Yang hung up the phone, and Secretary Xia just walked in from outside the door.
"Boss Su, come out for a photo!"
Su Yang washed his hands and said with a smile: "Here I come, here I come."
Dong Zhendong was interviewed, and a group of people got on the car again and headed towards the hilltop near Daqingshan. They all made a circle and returned when it was time for dinner.
Dong Zhendong called Su Yang, "Boss Su, we don't have time this morning. It's almost noon. I thought, let's have lunch first. I'll go to the mountain with you. I'm really curious about what place you recommend so highly!"
Su Yang was also a little excited.
"Okay, okay, Mr. Dong, just follow me. I promise you will not regret it!"
Jiang Mingfeng laughed and said, "Mr. Dong, I think I should just follow them and let them eat. They've been busy all morning and must be hungry!"
Dong Zhendong frowned slightly: "How about this, if you are not hungry, come with me upstairs to have a look, if you are hungry, don't be polite, let's go downstairs to eat!"
After Dong Zhendong finished speaking, a group of people laughed.
"I ate a lot last night and had a meal this morning, so I'm not hungry now!"
"That's right, Mr. Dong. We are also very curious and want to go and take a look!"
"Please take us with you. We also want to see what other beautiful places there are in Daqing Mountain!"
Dong Zhendong smiled bitterly: "Okay, let's go and take a look together!"
"Xiao Su, you know the way well, so you should introduce it to us!"
Su Yang felt ashamed. How could he be familiar with the place? He had never been there at all. If Si Yao hadn't mentioned it a few times, he wouldn't even know where it was. But since it was in the back mountain of Sili Village, it should be easy to find.
"Okay, okay, Mr. Dong, I will definitely introduce him to you!"
Jiang Mingfeng next to him smiled but said nothing. No matter where it was, Su Yang would not be able to shirk this task.
With Dong Zhendong's identity, if he can follow Su Yang around like this, and doesn't make a lot of money from him, then his trip would be in vain.
From Daqingshan Ski Resort to Xishan, it seems not far, but it is a full circle, which is a half-hour drive. Until the convoy drove into Sili Village, many villagers came out to watch the fun, and a group of people pointed at the convoy.
This village in the mountains hasn't seen so many outsiders for many years.
Su Yang sat in the front, looking at the map, directing the driver to drive into the mountain, but unfortunately, halfway through, the concrete road came to an end halfway up the mountain.
Several people nearby began to whisper.
"What kind of beautiful scenery can there be in this valley?"
"When I came here just now, I saw a reservoir. Is that a good place?"
"Hey, I know this place. What reservoir? It's a mine pit that collapsed after mining!"
"In the early years, there was an iron mine and a quarrying team in Daqing Mountain. Later, the ground sank and a big pit collapsed. It has become a water bubble after raining in recent years. Can this be considered a good place?"
Su Yang was silent. According to the map, the road had come to an end, but Si Yao's mother's grave was still in front. There were two tire tracks on the ground, indicating that Si Ruyun and Si Yao had driven up the mountain.
Dong Zhendong's secretary was standing next to Mr. Dong.
"Mr. Dong, there is no road ahead, are you still going?"
Dong Zhendong looked towards the village at the foot of the mountain with a serious look in his eyes. He was silent, not saying a word, as if he remembered something. After a long while, he looked at Su Yang with a strange look in his eyes, with doubt and questioning, but more of excitement. Even though it was suppressed under his calm eyes, it was difficult to conceal that inexplicable spirit.
“Is this Sili Village?”
He seemed to be asking a question, but his eyes were always on Su Yang.
The secretary next to him remained silent. Su Yang stood up and looked at Dong Zhendong with a smile: "Mr. Dong, this is indeed Sili Village."
"The beautiful scenery I mentioned is just ahead, but there is no road now..."
"Why don't you all stay in the car? I'll take you there and take a look. I'll be back in a while."
Dong Zhendong stood up immediately and pointed to the front: "You lead the way, I'll follow you!"
The secretary next to him quickly picked up the thermos and wanted to follow. Jiang Mingfeng also stood up, and Secretary Xia next to him also stood up. When they stood up, everyone in the car was ready to get off.
Dong Zhendong waved his hand: "You don't have to get off. I'll go with Xiao Su and be back soon. You just stay in the car!"
After he finished speaking, he got out of the car without waiting for anyone to question him. Su Yang also got out of the car, and Dong Zhendong's secretary followed behind. Jiang Mingfeng whispered a few words of reminder into Secretary Xia's ear. Not long after Dong Zhendong and Su Yang walked away, a group of people followed them.
Su Yang walked in front and Dong Zhendong followed behind. Su Yang's walking speed was not too slow, but after all, the road on the mountain was still a bit slippery in winter, and Dong Zhendong really couldn't walk faster. In some places, he needed the support of his secretary to barely get up.
"Su Yang, you don't know, I came to this Sili Village more than 30 years ago!"
“At that time, this place was very desolate!”
"There was no road at the back of this mountain. This cement road was built later. Originally, there was only a small path leading up the mountain!"
Dong Zhendong climbed up, and Su Yang just smiled and agreed. He had never been here before, so how could he know what a mountain or a road was? But it didn't matter. Dong Zhendong had been here, which meant that he was right to bring Dong Zhendong here.
The three of them walked forward. After walking about three or four hundred meters, they saw a Maybach parked on the side of the road. Although the car had a low chassis, its V8 engine had enough horsepower. At least it could climb this kind of low hill without any problem after changing to snow tires.
"Teacher Si, are you in there?"
Su Yang shouted towards the woods. Dong Zhendong was slightly startled and the secretary next to him also stood in front of him.
Si Yao heard Su Yang's voice, stepped on the snow, and walked out: "Didn't you say you would come in the morning? It's already noon. My aunt and I have been waiting for you here for a while!"
Before she finished her words, she looked at Dong Zhendong beside Su Yang, and couldn't utter a word of blame.
Si Yao looked at Dong Zhendong with a dull gaze, then at Su Yang. She seemed to understand in an instant why Su Yang was so persistent and asked her and Si Ruyun to wait here!
