"Whose car is this?"
"I don't know."
"It seems to belong to that Outsider."
"Outsider?"
"The one who lives on the mountain."
"Oh, so it's him."
"..."
The villagers murmured among themselves, pointing at Zhao Xiaosong and the driver.
Zhao Xiaosong ignored them and turned to the driver, saying, "Wait here for me; I'm going to find someone."
"Okay, young master," the driver nodded in response.
Zhao Xiaosong glanced at him before turning around and walking straight into the village.
After walking for a while, he stopped.
He looked around and realized that the surroundings were completely unfamiliar; he didn't know the way at all.
Frowning, he took out his phone and dialed a number.
The phone rang a few times before it was answered.
"Hello?" A deep male voice came from the other end.
"It's me," Zhao Xiaosong said calmly.
"Xiaosong?" The male voice sounded slightly surprised.
"Yeah," Zhao Xiaosong replied.
"Why are you calling me?" the male voice asked in confusion.
"I'm lost in your village," Zhao Xiaosong said in a calm tone.
"What?" The male voice exclaimed in surprise, "You're in our village?"
"Yeah," Zhao Xiaosong confirmed.
"Where are you? I'll come find you," the male voice said hurriedly.
"I don't even know where I am; can you send someone to guide me?" Zhao Xiaosong replied lightly.
"Sure, no problem; just wait for me a moment," the male voice said before hanging up.
Zhao Xiaosong put his phone back in his pocket and looked up at the night sky, waiting quietly.
A few minutes later, a motorcycle roared up and stopped in front of him.
"Xiaosong." The rider removed his helmet, revealing a handsome face—it was Zhao Guangcai.
"Guangcai," Zhao Xiaosong acknowledged him with a slight nod.
"What do you need me for?" Zhao Guangcai asked.
"I found a girl unconscious on the mountain," Zhao Xiaosong explained. "I carried her to the car, planning to take her home, but I don't know where her home is."
"An unconscious girl?" Zhao Guangcai furrowed his brow at the mention.
"Yes," Zhao Xiaosong replied.
"Then follow me," Zhao Guangcai said, putting on his helmet and starting the motorcycle.
Zhao Xiaosong nodded and climbed onto the motorcycle with Zhao Guangcai as they drove into the village.
The motorcycle traveled along the narrow path, and soon they arrived at the center of the village. By this time, many villagers had gathered around, surrounding Zhao Xiaosong's vehicle and discussing it animatedly.
"Look at this beautiful car."
"Yeah, it's my first time seeing such a stunning vehicle."
"Whose car is this?"
"I don't know."
"…"
The villagers were buzzing with excitement as they commented on the car. Just then, the village chief hurried over.
"Everyone, please make way for me," the chief said, pushing through the crowd to reach the vehicle.
"Hello, sir," the chief greeted Zhao Xiaosong respectfully as he approached.
"Hello," Zhao Xiaosong replied, nodding slightly.
"May I ask what brings you to our village?" the chief inquired politely.
"I found this girl on the mountain; she was unconscious. I brought her down and intend to take her home," Zhao Xiaosong explained.
"A girl?" The chief frowned slightly upon hearing this. He glanced at the vehicle before turning to the villagers. "Does anyone recognize this girl?"
"Chief, I think that might be Li Xiumei!" an older woman exclaimed after examining the car for a while.
"What? Is it Xiu Mei?"
"Is it really Xiu Mei?"
"Oh my, how did she end up here?"
"…"
Upon hearing the woman's words, the villagers erupted into chatter, speculating wildly.
"Calm down; we'll find out soon enough," the chief waved his hand to quiet them down.
The villagers fell silent, awaiting the chief's decision. After a moment of contemplation, he turned to Zhao Xiaosong and asked, "Sir, may I open the car door to take a look?"
"Sure," Zhao Xiaosong nodded.
The village chief saw that he agreed and turned to a woman beside him, Aunt Wang, saying, "Sister-in-law, could you please help me open the car door?"
"Sure," Aunt Wang replied, stepping forward and gently grasping the car door handle.
She exerted all her strength and pulled hard.
The car door swung open.
Aunt Wang leaned in to look inside and saw a girl lying there, her eyes tightly shut, her face pale, looking extremely weak.
"It's Xiu Mei! It really is Xiu Mei!" Aunt Wang exclaimed excitedly.
"Is it really Xiu Mei?"
"Oh my, how did she end up here?"
The villagers erupted in chatter upon hearing Aunt Wang's words.
"Everyone, please quiet down," the village chief raised his hand to signal for silence.
Seeing the village chief speak, the villagers suppressed their excitement and confusion, halting their discussions.
Once the crowd settled down, the village chief turned to Zhao Xiaosong and said, "Sir, I truly appreciate you finding Xiu Mei. She is the daughter of Sun Qiuhua. I will take you to find Sun Qiuhua right away."
"Thank you for your help," Zhao Xiaosong nodded slightly in response.
"Not at all; it's what I should do," the village chief waved his hand dismissively.
Then the driver drove the car carrying the girl named Li Xiumei into the village.
Seeing that there was nothing more to watch, the villagers began to disperse in small groups.
As night deepened, a crescent moon hung high in the sky, with stars twinkling beautifully.
Zhang Xiaoxiao sat in the courtyard, gazing up at the night sky.
"Zhang Xiaoxiao, are you very tired?" the system couldn't help but ask.
"Mm," Zhang Xiaoxiao replied softly.
"Why do you never seem to get enough sleep?" the system said helplessly.
"I don't know either," Zhang Xiaoxiao shook her head and replied.
"Could it be that you're a reincarnation of the God of Sleep?" the system said in disbelief.
