But, having agreed to meet at the mountain summit, where was Xiao Yue?
"Has Xiao Yue arrived?" Qin Anyu looked around; the place indeed resembled the rooms of a hostel, with just a simple bed and table, and then nothing else.
"No." Chu Hong took advantage of her silence to add: "Maybe they didn't make it to the summit."
"That's impossible." Qin Anyu shook her head. "They definitely came; you're lying to me."
Qin Anyu stood up and searched the place thoroughly, from upstairs to downstairs, but found no trace of Tang Yue. She exclaimed anxiously, "How could she not be here!"
"I never saw them at all. Perhaps they never even came up to the summit?" Chu Hong's response was confident, deep down, he hoped that Tang Yue and her party wouldn't make it to the summit and that he could have a quiet time with Qin Anyu.
In the evening, Chu Hong specifically asked the staff and indeed received no news of Tang Yue. At that time, he only felt happy and didn't think too deeply about it.
