Su Meng looked up at the slope and felt a little awkward. Wen Le did not mention that she would need to climb the hill to get there. She was not prepared for that at all. However, since she was already here, it was impossible for her to go back directly. She had to think of a way to go up no matter what.
Su Meng didn’t struggle for long before Wei Ting solved the problem.
He took off the huge backpack from his back and took out a climbing rope. Before Su Meng could say anything, he tied the rope around her waist.
Wen Le smacked his forehead and sighed, “I didn’t expect President Wei to be so strong in business, and to even consider such a small matter like entering the tomb. You even brought a climbing rope. I’m sure President Wei likes to climb mountains, right? Or do you like to travel?”
Wen Le was praising Wei Ting from the bottom of his heart but unfortunately, Wei Ting’s attention was on Su Meng and he did not pay any attention to him. Wen Le, who had been ignored, was not angry. He chuckled and rubbed his hands before he climbed up the slope.
“Be good and wait down there. When I get up, I’ll pull you up. You just have to control your balance. Can you do it?” After Wei Ting helped Su Meng tie the rope, he tugged twice to make sure the rope was tied tightly.
Su Meng looked at Wei Ting and nodded. “Okay, I got it.”
“Then wait for me here,” Wei Ting instructed again before climbing up the hill.
Just like the last time he climbed the mountain, Wei Ting’s movements were light, and he climbed up in a few steps. Su Meng looked at Wei Ting’s mountain climbing and felt that it looked familiar. She seemed to have seen it somewhere before.
Su Meng listened to Wei Ting and waited for him at the bottom of the slope. Su Meng had been staring at Wei Ting’s climbing posture the whole time. It was only when he reached the top that she suddenly remembered that Wei Ting’s posture was exactly the same as the soldiers she saw on TV.
She had always known that Wei Ting was an extremely self-disciplined person, and in her impression, Wei Ting seemed to know everything and knew a little about everything. Could it be that he had learned it from the soldiers in order to train his physical strength? ‘No wonder he’s so good at fighting,’ Su Meng praised him in her heart.
She had to admit that Wei Ting was good in all aspects except for her.
After Wei Ting climbed up, he turned around and pulled Su Meng up. Wen Le had wanted to help. After all, it was difficult to pull people up from this height alone. However, he did not expect Wei Ting to not need his help at all and easily pull Su Meng up. Su Meng only needed to hold the rope with her hands and step on the stone wall to maintain her balance. She did not use any strength at all.
Fortunately, Wei Ting had e along this time. Otherwise, Su Meng would have been stumped before they even reached the cemetery.
“Thanks, President Wei.” Su Meng’s greatest strength was her clear distinction between gratitude and grudges. Even though she had some friction with Wei Ting, Wei Ting had helped her, so she thanked him from the bottom of her heart.
“Let’s go,” he said. Wei Ting did not respond to her gratitude. Instead, he kept the rope and turned around to walk in the direction Wen Le pointed.
He didn’t know why, but every time he heard Su Meng say thank you to him, he would feel unfortable. It was as if Su Meng was a stranger to him. Su Meng had never said thank you to Shen Jian when she was with him.
Su Meng thought that Wei Ting did not want to talk to her, so she did not say anything more and followed Wen Le.
The three of them walked for a while, passing through a forest and a field of weeds. Su Meng was panting heavily and her legs were weak. Wen Le pointed to a small mound the size of a pot and said, “We’re here, we’re here. This is the place.”
Su Meng looked in the direction he was pointing at. Other than a pile of dirt, the rest of the place was filled with weeds. There was no tomb.
“Didn’t you say you were going to the cemetery? Why are you in such an empty place? Where is the tomb?” Su Meng asked as she looked around.
“This kind of large family’s graveyard is not marked on the ground. Generally, people who don’t understand this line of work won’t find it. Those that are on the surface are just for smokescreens. There’s nothing valuable inside,” Wei Ting explained to Su Meng.
Wen Le gave Wei Ting a thumbs up after listening to him. He did not expect Wei Ting to even know about this. He was truly impressed. For a moment, Wen Le’s admiration for Wei Ting had already overshadowed his fear, and he even dared to interrupt him.
Su Meng looked at Wei Ting and smiled. “Do you know where the entrance to the tomb is?”
Who didn’t know how to talk? The most important thing was to see if they had the true strength. In any case, she didn’t believe that a pampered young master like Wei Ting would really know so much about such things.
