The next day, Li Hanchen had yet to come home to the villa.

Li An woke up first thing in the morning and headed to school, so Mu Sheng ate breakfast by herself.

“Sigh. I wonder if Young Master is eating and resting on time at the office,” muttered Auntie Lin as she sent Mu Sheng breakfast.

During this time, she had gotten used to Li Hanchen’s presence. Now that Li Hanchen was gone, Mu Sheng was a little unused to it. She took an egg and slowly peeled it, but she failed to realize how hot it was and accidentally burned herself.

Mu Sheng shrank her hand back and placed the egg on the table.

After breakfast, Tang Tiantian came over to pick up Mu Sheng.

“There is nothing for you to film today. Where would you like to go?”

Mu Sheng contemplated. “The ski resort.”

“Sure thing!” Tang Tiantian had seen videos of Mu Sheng skiing and she looked absolutely cool. Tang Tiantian could not help feeling excited just thinking about getting to see Mu Sheng ski. “Your skiing is awesome. I saw your video. You are so cool!”

Mu Sheng did not seem very excited. “Thanks.”

Tang Tiantian assumed Mu Sheng did not sleep well last night. “Why don’t you have some rest? I will wake you up when we get there.”

The car arrived at the destination 30 minutes later.

The manager of the ski resort came over to welcome her when she got off the car. “Hi, Miss Mu. Welcome to the ski resort!”

Mu Sheng continued walking. “Yes?”

“Nothing. If you need anything, please let me know. The professional track has already been cleared for you.” The manager smiled at Mu Sheng as though she was the God of Fortune.

Mu Sheng’s skiing ability was so professional that her very presence would serve as free marketing for the ski resort. He naturally treated her with reverence.

Mu Sheng changed into her ski gear before heading over to the professional track behind the mountain. However, she encountered the last two people she wanted to see.

“Big Sis.” Mu Xiao was dressed in a thick down coat with a scarf bundled around her neck. Her eyes glinted when she caught sight of Mu Sheng.

Li Ming frowned when he saw Mu Sheng. “What is she doing here? Is she following me?”

Li Ming did not have the time to follow the entertainment news, so he did not see the entertainment program Mu Sheng had appeared in. In his memory, Mu Sheng was completely unathletic and would vomit blood from running 800 meters. It did not occur to him that she could ski very well.

Mu Xiao recalled Mu Sheng’s expert skiing ability in the video clips. She glanced at Li Ming anxiously before she coughed a couple of times as she covered her mouth. “Ming, I feel a little unwell. I want to get off the mountain. Can you come with me?”

Li Ming’s spirits felt dampened. He finally had a chance to come skiing but had to leave before even hitting the tracks. However, he looked at how weak Mu Xiao looked and could not bring himself to reject her. “Okay. Let’s leave the mountain.”

“Uh huh.” Mu Xiao nodded as she rubbed her temples. “I feel a little giddy.”

Li Ming hurriedly supported her. He looked at Mu Sheng smugly as Mu Xiao leaned into his arms.

Mu Sheng did not know what to say. Was dating scum like Li Ming worthy of bragging? She disregarded them and continued walking.

Li Ming got annoyed when Mu Sheng acted nonchalantly. He called her, “Stop right there.”

Mu Sheng did not stop, so Li Ming became even madder.

“I told you to stop. Didn’t you hear me? Don’t you have any manners? Even if you don’t want to greet me, shouldn’t you ask after your little sister since she is unwell?”

This time, Mu Sheng stopped. She turned to glance at Li Ming coldly, making him tremble inexplicably. “I don’t see how she can be sick.”

Li Ming scoffed, “Are you able to tell? You certainly think very highly of yourself!”

Mu Sheng couldn’t be bothered talking to him. She glanced at the skis on his feet. “Are you a man?”

“Huh?” Li Ming thought Mu Sheng was scolding him again, so fire automatically blazed in his eyes.

“If you call yourself a man, then let’s compete. If you lose, then you have to stop showing up in front of me and talking so much. You are simply annoying.” Mu Sheng stood in the snow as she looked at him contemptuously with a proud look on her face.

Mu Sheng succeeded in triggering Li Ming’s competitiveness. He looked into her eyes and asked, “How do you want to compete?”

Mu Sheng moved her feet and started skiing. “Follow me.”

The moment Li Ming caught sight of Mu Sheng’s movements, he noticed something different about her.

Since he was not a complete rookie, he could tell Mu Sheng was a good skier from the way she moved on her skis.

“Ming.” Mu Xiao felt anxious when she detected Li Ming looking at Mu Sheng.

“It’s fine. Just wait for me by the side.” Li Ming could tell Mu Sheng was a good skier, but he was undaunted. He smiled as he comforted Mu Xiao before following behind Mu Sheng.

Mu Xiao felt angry and worried as he watched Li Ming leave with Mu Sheng.

She stopped coughing and gasping as she followed behind them quickly.

There was a particularly extreme slope at the back of the mountain. Some parts of the ski track were almost perpendicular to the ground.

Li Ming never knew of its existence before. He frowned as he said, “Do you want to compete on this track?”

Mu Sheng glanced at him. “What’s wrong? Are you chicken?”

The corner of Mu Sheng’s eyes lowered slightly, making her glacial eyes appear even more disdainful. In an instant, Li Ming was infuriated.

Li Ming gritted his teeth. “Who said anything about being afraid? I am just worried that you will end up begging for it to stop!”

Mu Sheng appeared calm. She seemed completely unafraid as her cool eyes landed on Li Ming. “Whoever makes it to the bottom of the track first is the winner. If I win, you will shut up whenever you see me from now on.”

“And what if you lose?” Li Ming felt unsettled by Mu Sheng’s innate confident aura. Was this still the same Mu Sheng he used to know?

Although Mu Sheng said nothing, Li Ming could certainly tell Mu Sheng was confident of winning from the look on her face.

“Shall we begin?” Mu Sheng glanced at Li Ming as she stood by the side.

Li Ming gazed at the steep slope beneath his feet and felt a little unconfident. However, it was too late to regret now that he had agreed to this, so he put on a bold front as he stood beside Mu Sheng. “Fine. Remember what you promised. If you lose..”

Before Li Ming could finish his sentence, Mu Sheng’s silhouette shot out like an arrow and left.

In an instant, Mu Sheng was already dozens of meters away from him.

Li Ming could not help feeling shocked when he saw Mu Sheng’s fluid motion. He swiftly jumped onto the ski track and gave chase.

The steep ski track was far harder than Li Ming anticipated. Initially, he was still able to overcome the first few obstacles. As time progressed, Li Ming gradually lost confidence.

However, Mu Sheng simply went further and further. Li Ming gritted his teeth and sped up to chase after Mu Sheng.

Since he was out of practice, he lost balance the moment they gained speed. He ended up accidentally falling on the track.

He tumbled dozens of times before he finally came to a stop on the track.
