"Whose car is this?" 0
"I don't know." 0
"It seems to belong to that outsider." 0
"Outsider?" 0
"The one who lives on the mountain." 0
"Oh, so it's him." 0
"..." 0
The villagers were discussing among themselves, pointing at Zhao Xiaosong and the driver. 0
Zhao Xiaosong ignored them and turned to the driver, saying, "Wait here, I'll go find someone." 0
"Okay, young master," the driver nodded in response. 0
Zhao Xiaosong glanced at him, then turned and walked straight into the village. 0
After walking for a while, he stopped. 0
He looked around and realized that the environment was very unfamiliar; he didn't know the way at all. 0
He frowned, took out his phone, and dialed a number. 0
The phone rang a few times before it was answered. 0
"Hello?" A deep male voice came from the other end. 0
"It's me," Zhao Xiaosong said calmly. 0
"Xiaosong?" The male voice sounded slightly surprised. 0
"Yeah," Zhao Xiaosong replied. 0
"Why are you calling me?" the man asked in confusion. 0
"I'm lost in your village," Zhao Xiaosong said in a calm tone. 0
"What?" The man exclaimed in surprise, "You're in our village?" 0
"Yeah," Zhao Xiaosong confirmed. 0
"Where are you? I'll come find you," the man said hurriedly. 0
"I don't know where I am; can you help me find someone to guide me?" Zhao Xiaosong replied lightly. 0
"Sure, no problem. Just wait for me a moment," the man said before hanging up the phone. 0
Zhao Xiaosong put his phone back in his pocket and looked up at the night sky, waiting quietly. 0
After a few minutes, a motorcycle roared up and stopped in front of him. 0
"Xiaosong." The rider took off his helmet, revealing a handsome face—it was Liu Guangcai. 0
"Guangcai," Zhao Xiaosong said, looking at him and nodding slightly. 0
 
 
"What brings you to me?" Liu Guangcai asked. 0
"I found a girl unconscious on the mountain. I carried her to the car and was going to take her home, but I don't know where her home is," Zhao Xiaosong explained. 0
"An unconscious girl?" Liu Guangcai frowned slightly upon hearing this. 0
"Yes," Zhao Xiaosong replied. 0
"Then follow me," Liu Guangcai said, putting on his helmet and starting the motorcycle. 0
Zhao Xiaosong nodded and got on the motorcycle, riding into the village with Liu Guangcai. 0
The motorcycle traveled along the path, and soon they arrived at the center of the village. 0
At this point, many villagers had gathered around, discussing Zhao Xiaosong's vehicle. 0
"Look, this car is so beautiful." 0
"Yeah, it's my first time seeing such a beautiful car." 0
"Whose car is this?" 0
"I don't know." 0
"..." 0
The villagers were enthusiastically commenting on the car. 0
Just then, the village chief rushed over. 0
"Everyone, please make way for me," he said, pushing through the crowd to reach the vehicle. 0
"Hello, sir," the village chief said respectfully as he approached Zhao Xiaosong. 0
"Hello," Zhao Xiaosong replied with a slight nod. 0
"May I ask what brings you to our village?" the village chief inquired politely. 0
"I found this girl on the mountain; she was unconscious, so I brought her down and am preparing to take her home," Zhao Xiaosong explained. 0
"A girl?" The village chief frowned slightly upon hearing this. 0
He glanced at the vehicle and then turned to the villagers, shouting, "Does anyone recognize this girl?" 0
"Chief, this seems to be Li Xiumei," an Aunt said after examining the vehicle for a while before suddenly calling out. 0
"What? Is it Xiu Mei?" 0
"Is it really Xiu Mei?" 0
"Oh my, how did she end up here?" 0
"..." 0
Upon hearing Aunt's words, the villagers erupted into chatter. 0
"Please calm down; we'll find out soon enough," the village chief waved his hand to signal everyone to quiet down. 0
The villagers fell silent, waiting for the chief's decision. 0
After pondering for a moment, the village chief turned to Zhao Xiaosong and asked, "Sir, may I open the car door to take a look?" 0
"Sure," Zhao Xiaosong nodded. 0
 
 
The village chief saw that he agreed and turned to a nearby woman, saying, "Sister-in-law, could you please help me open the car door?" 0
"Sure," the woman replied, then stepped forward, reaching out to gently grasp the car door handle. 0
She exerted all her strength and pulled hard. 0
The car door swung open. 0
The woman leaned in to look inside and saw a girl lying there, her eyes tightly closed and her face pale, looking very weak. 0
"It's Xiu Mei, it really is Xiu Mei," the woman exclaimed excitedly. 0
"Is it really Xiu Mei?" 0
"Oh my, how did she end up here?" 0
"..." 0
The villagers erupted in chatter upon hearing the woman's words. 0
"Everyone, please be quiet," the village chief raised his hand to signal for silence. 0
Seeing the village chief speak, the villagers had no choice but to suppress their excitement and confusion, stopping their discussions. 0
Once everyone quieted down, the village chief turned to Zhao Xiaosong and said, "Sir, I truly appreciate you finding Xiu Mei. She is Sun Qiuhua's daughter, and I will take you to find Sun Qiuhua now." 0
"Thank you for your trouble," Zhao Xiaosong nodded slightly in response. 0
"You're welcome; it's what I should do," the village chief waved his hand. 0
Then, the driver drove off with the girl named Li Xiumei, leaving the village together. 0
Seeing that there was nothing more to watch, the villagers dispersed in small groups. 0
As night deepened, a crescent moon hung high in the sky, with stars twinkling beautifully. 0
Zhang Xiaoxiao sat in the courtyard, looking up at the night sky. 0
"Zhang Xiaoxiao, are you very tired?" the system couldn't help but ask. 0
"Mm," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied softly. 0
"Why do you never seem to get enough sleep?" the system said helplessly. 0
"I don't know either," Zhang Xiaoxiao shook her head and replied. 0
"Could it be that you're a reincarnation of the God of Sleep?" the system said in exasperation. 0
