Tangled Up In Blue

Chapter 79 Poppi Was Missing

After walking for a long time, Poppi had no mood to enjoy the beautiful scenery, for two reasons, one was tiredness, and the other was the coldness. Poppi felt that some blisters appeared on her feet and her ankle hurt so much that she had to take off her shoes. There were a lot of rubble on the mountain and it was also hurt to step on the sole of her feet, so she could only limp up the mountain. She couldn't help but feel sad. If there are a line of the top ten touching characters of Ye city, she was sure that she be selected.

'You must take good care of yourself….' She said to herself.

The wind on the mountain was blowing hard and the sound was piercing cold. Poppi wrapped herself tightly in her clothes. The chilly wind blew away the bit heat she accumulated because of climbing the mountain. People who went up the mountain with her all returned now, but she was still struggling to climb.

She walked for another long time. When she crossed the mountain and finally saw the crooked tree with red wishes, she almost cried out of excitement.

Now she was the only one left in the mountain. She stood in front of a tree and smiled slowly.

"I hope my father and my sister Celine can get back to health,"

After checking the piece of paper she wrote and putting it into the wish paper, Poppi folded her fingers facing the devout hands of the crooked tree and made a silent sound in her heart. She took a deep breath and raised her arms to throw the wish paper at the highest branch.

She didn't know if it would work, but she knew that if a chance could be given up by her, she would regret it for a lifetime.

She was moved…

A gust of strong wind blew the wishes away, and Poppi was so angry that she hurried to chase after it. Again, it was blown away and still hung up…

Looking from afar, a figure on the top of the mountain ran up and down continuously because of an illusory wish.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, it was warm in the hotel hall. Everyone was smiling. But Benson was an exception. He rushed all the way to the hotel hall. Obviously, he was worried and at a loss.

"Have you seen Poppi?"

"have you seen the girl who came with me, who named Poppi?"

He dialed the number of Poppi, but no one answered.

Outside the hotel, a cool sports car suddenly stopped at the door. The hotel porter saw it and quickly stepped forward to open the door for the owner. As soon as the door opened, the man on the driver's seat got out of the car. He took off his sunglasses and his handsome face immediately appeared.

"Hiss, I feel so cold!" However, as soon as he got out of the car, the man winced with cold.

It was no one else but Hugh. He was talking with Malcolm on the phone, "it's so cold in Pebin! My God! It's raining. I have arrived at the hotel. Where are you? "

"I'll be right down." In the hotel room, Malcolm lifted the curtain and looked out. As expected, some raindrops fell. He hung up the phone and walked outside. He didn't want to see Hugh make it to Pebin as soon as he got off the plane, because he was afraid that he would get angry and jealous once he saw him…

When he just walked out of the room, he saw a man and a woman walking in the empty corridor. Then he saw the person, who named George.

George also saw Malcolm, so he immediately pushed the woman aside and walked towards him with a smile. In a hurry, he reached out his hand and said, "Mr. Malcolm! How rare! I haven't got a chance to talk to you alone! "

Then, George came over to him with a sincere smile on his face.

Mr. Malcolm lifted up his hand. When the smile on the George's face widened, he put his hands in his pockets and said in a cold voice, "I don't want to have a private talk with you. Goodbye."

George raised his eyebrows and then smiled in a low voice. He took his hand back and said, "After all, both of us have the surname of Quan."

"That's why I don't want to talk to you." With his lips pursed slightly, Malcolm nodded to George politely and said goodbye.

Looking at Malcolm's receding figure, George sneered disdainfully. 'What's so proud of a bastard? Even if he is rich, so what? Deep inside, he was a humble servant.'

"Come here!" George waved to the woman who was get rid of by him. Then she leaned over him in a coquettish way, and they two put their arms around each other's shoulders and went into the VIP room of George.

After asking a while in the hall, Benson turned his head to look at a person enter the door of the hall, only to find that it was Hugh. He walked in from outside. After hesitating for a while, he finally stepped forward and said, "Mr. Su."

Seeing him, Hugh's smile faded. He asked, "Mr. Ji, what can I do for you?"

"You just arrived?" "Haven't you seen Poppi yet?" asked Benson.

"Poppi?" "What? Isn't she here? "

"She..."

"Mr. Ji! Mr. Ji! " When Benson was about to say something, his assistant, Tom, rushed out of the crowd and ran very fast. When he didn't see him, he shouted, "Miss. Poppi, Miss. Poppi has gone up the mountain!"

"What was she doing up the mountain? !" Benson panicked. "When did she go?"

"There is a wishing tree on the mountain. Miss. Poppi has gone to make a wish," Tom gasped for air and said, "I heard from two journalists that Miss. Poppi went there alone and left at five o'clock. She hasn't come back yet..."

"Damn it!" Hugh cursed and turned to rush out.

As soon as he saw Hugh, Benson hurriedly tried to follow him, but was stopped by Tom. "Mr. Ji! It's raining outside. Please put on more clothes. "

"Why are you still telling me to wear more clothes?" After hearing what he said, he immediately shook off Tom's hand and rushed out of the room.

When Malcolm went downstairs, he saw Hugh and Benson rushing out of the house one after another. He couldn't help frowning. Just then, Sean came from him behind, "Mr. Malcolm."

"Where are they going?" Malcolm asked immediately. Why did Hugh run away before seeing Malcolm?

"Miss. Poppi has been climbing the mountain for three hours and hasn't come down yet." Sean said in a low voice, "Mr. Su and Mr. Ji went to look for her."

After that, the casual expression in his eyes suddenly became sharp, and his face was firm. He immediately turned around, while walking, as if the wind blew. He said: "I'll go to drive, and call me about the details."

Sean followed him and stopped immediately. "Yes, master."

The three people left in a hurry in the hall, which attracted a lot of onlookers.

Malcolm didn't know how he got in the car, but pressed the accelerator hard instinctively.

"On the third peak of the Roma mountain, there is a wishing tree, which grows on the other side of the hotel."

"I couldn't get through to Mr. Poppi's phone, and I also couldn't get the location information."

"Word has it that the wishing tree is spread among folks. Some tourists come to make wishes of themselves. The police haven't identified the tourist area yet… As a result, there were not well protected. "

"Up to now, nobody has received any rescue call, but the rescue helicopters have been sent on their way as your ordered."

Malcolm didn't hang up the phone. He was getting more and more worried while listening to the news from Sean. The rain on Pebin seemed to be heavier. Didn't Poppi check the weather before she went out? Blamed! Damn it!

The brake stopped with a creak…

Ten minutes later, at the foot of the mountain, Malcolm stopped the car. Without any time to think or react, he lifted his feet and ran up the mountain. On the other side of the parking lot, there was the car parked by the two of Hugh and Benson.

There was only a path along the mountain. Malcolm ran up, and he could vaguely hear a loud shout from left and right.

If Hugh was going to the left, and Benson went to the right. Then Malcolm would have to go to the middle of mountain.

Malcolm breathed out, wiped off the rain on his face and shouted, "Poppi! Poppi! " There was a slight quiver in his voice.

There were many lush trees on the mountain, and Poppi was hiding under a tree to avoid the rain. When she looked at the time, it was already eight o'clock. She thought that she'd better go down the mountain as soon as possible, or she would not be caught in the rain, nor would she be frozen to death.

Poppi sighed and went down the mountain. However, the rain path was wet and slippery. She accidentally stepped on a small stone. After a quick screech, her right ankle joint seemed to be in the wrong place. It was so painful that she squatted down and sweated heavily.

"What an evil plan!" Cursed Poppi in a low voice and tried to stand up despite the pain. However, before she left, she felt that her leg was so painful that she really couldn't walk. She timidly moved her body to the foot of a pine tree by the side of the path to shelter from the rain. She squatted down and brushed her high heels with her brush. Then she threw them away angrily and rubbed her own joints gently.

'Should I ask someone to save myself?'?

'Who is she looking for help?' She wondered iW in her mind. Benson Ji? No way! Malcolm? It is impossible! She decided to call the police!

Poppi groaned and took out her mobile phone. The screen lit up and there was no signal.

"Damn it!" 'ha ha, just take a look! She had to rely on herself at this critical moment!

When poppi supported herself with her hands on the ground and was about to stand up, she saw a beam of light coming closer and closer to her. She was so frightened that she didn't dare to make a sound. Was he a bad guy?

"Poppi! 'poppi! Is that you? "

The man's voice came through. Hearing that, Poppi got up and said in a firm voice, "Malcolm!" Why is Malcolm here?

"It's me! it's me! I'm here! " "Of course it's my pleasure! I'm here! What a coincidence! How did you find me? I was about to call someone! " All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

She didn't see him, but heard him. As soon as he heard the response in the rain, Malcolm suddenly lost all his strength and completely relaxed.

He saw a small figure in the distance who seemed to be smiling… But at this time, the worried expression on Malcolm's face suddenly turned into anger. He followed the voice to find out what happened. At a glance, he saw Poppi squatting under the tree. He walked two steps to her and shouted, "what are you doing here so late! Is it interesting to let someone up the mountain to find you?! Hmm? "

Poppi shivered because of the grievance and she sobbed, "I… I came to make wishes, but the signature of the wishes could not be hanged up, which delayed the time. It was not easy to hang it on the wall, and it began to rain again. Who knew it was so late. You… "Do you come up for me?"
