Just when she thought she was dood, she heard a loud crash, and Yang Daniu fell heavily on her.
She imdiately opened her eyes, and with all her strength, she pushed Yang Daniu off her body.
After pushing him away, she sat there panting, her eyes fixed on Yang Daniu who was lying beside her.
Yang Daniu’s eyes were tightly shut, looking as if he were dead.
She was terrified!
Could it be that the big stone she used killed him?
She had no intention of killing anyone; she only ant to knock him out to escape.
Killing soone required a life for a life, and she didn’t have that kind of courage.
Seeing that Yang Daniu remained motionless, her courage grew a bit, and she reached out her hand to feel for his breath under his nose.
Upon sensing the faint breath on her hand, Li Chuntao breathed a sigh of relief.
He’s not dead!
It’s good that he’s not dead, just knocked out.
Great, she was finally saved.
Now she could descend the mountain with peace of mind.
Li Chuntao stood up, quickly tidied up her sowhat disheveled clothes and hair, then ran down the mountain.
Since she was unfamiliar with the mountain to begin with, and was a bit dazed by recent events, she had lost her way down.
She kept running through the mountain, unable to find the way back.
As a result, returning was delayed.
At Hope Academy, Yang Xiaocui was waiting for Li Chuntao to return. It was already afternoon, and seeing that she hadn’t returned yet, she beca anxious; by logic, Yang Daniu should have succeeded by now.
Could it be that Li Chuntao was so devastated that she was unwilling to co back?
She couldn’t contain herself; no matter what, she wanted to confirm whether things had co to fruition.
So she found Alu again, "Alu, I’m not feeling well today..."
Before she could finish, Alu spoke up, "Then go and rest first, there’s nothing left to do here, all the work is done, you can co back to tidy up after the children finish school."
Alu knew her lady had been waiting for Yang Xiaocui to find an excuse to leave, and she knew this was an opportunity, so of course she let her go, though the lady was not there, she could help keep track for her and report back once she returned.
Although Li Chuntao had gone to the mountain, she didn’t leave directly; she told Alu she was going out with Xiaoxiao, and coincidentally, Xiaoxiao hadn’t co today, so Alu was convinced about her lady and Madam Yang going out, yet was unaware her lady was already in danger.
"Thank you, Alu." Seeing that Alu agreed, Yang Xiaocui thanked her, then left directly.
This ti she didn’t go ho, she went straight to the mountain; one reason was her eagerness to know the result, and the other was that there were people at ho, and if she went back, she would inevitably face questioning, which might arouse suspicion.
Seeing Yang Xiaocui not going ho but leaving imdiately, Alu hurriedly followed, but fearing Yang Xiaocui would notice, she kept a considerable distance.
Yang Xiaocui, walking ahead, was solely focused on the mountain, unaware of Alu trailing far behind.
Even though Alu was tracking, she ended up losing her target due to keeping a distance and not being familiar with the mountain paths.
Just as she was at a loss, she spotted her lady and, puzzled, walked up, "Miss, what are you doing here?"
