Wang Xiao, who was beside her, also looked over.
Gu Chu’s face turned even redder. Even the tip of her ears were red. She cursed Feng Jia in her heart.
Last night, when she said she didn’t want it, he didn’t care. Now, he was so untimely and “concerned” about her.
Did their personalities crash?
Gu Chu was a little annoyed. “Who said so? I’m not sick, I’m fine!”
Then, she shook off his hand and took the lead.
Feng Jia looked at her back. He had meant well, but she didn’t seem to appreciate it at all, so he just let it go.
Gu Wan and Qiao Qiao were the last two. Wang Xiao pulled Qiao Qiao, and Feng Jia pulled Gu Wan up the steep slope.
Gu Wan shyly thanked him, and Feng Jia nodded.
The others might not have noticed the small episode between Gu Chu and Feng Jia, but Gu Wan noticed the red spots on the back of Gu Chu’s neck. Gu Wan’s feet trampled over the young grass.
They were still one-third of the way to the top of the mountain. Gu Wan was still relatively quiet, but the sisters were quite active.
Wang Yun managed to strike up a conversation with Meng Lang, and Jiang
Qing did not want to be outdone and went to look for Lu Shen. Although Lu Shen looked gentle on the surface, he was very cold. She did not manage to strike up a conversation with him and went to look for Wang Xiao, but Wang Xiao ignored her.
In the end, Jiang Qing had no choice but to go and seduce Meng Lang. She ignored the warning in Wang Yun’s eyes and flattered Meng Lang in an even more pretentious tone. Meng Lang immediately warmed up to her.
The two sisters were going all out.
However, they had obviously overlooked the first coincidence.
Along the way, it was as if there were three women in a play. They were going back and forth relentlessly.
Gu Chu took out her phone and pretended like she was taking a picture of the scenery. In fact, she had taken a picture of Gu Wan and the pair of sisters and sent it to Ms. Lin.
After all, the fish had taken the bait. They should also consider whether to steam or braise them.
At this moment, Lin Yin had not woken up yet, so she did not reply.
They figured it was almost time. When they reached the top of the mountain, they just happened to welcome the first ray of morning light.
One could never get tired of seeing the sunrise. Even if they saw it many times, they would still find it breathtaking and spectacular.
At this moment, everyone cheered and jumped in joy, and took photos.
On the other hand, Feng Jia and Wang Xiao were very quiet. They were enjoying the view.
Gu Chu also took out her phone and took a few photos. She chose a photo and posted it on her moments with the caption, “Sunrise”. Then, she put away the phone and leaned against a big rock, her head drooping.
Perhaps she was tired, she looked like she was not in the mood to be there.
The air on the mountain was very fresh. They did not want to go down so soon. Gu Wan took out chocolate and beef jerky from her backpack and distributed them to everyone.
Lu Shen took the beef jerl$,’ and said, “You’re so thoughtful. We only brought water.”
Gu Wan looked a little embarrassed. “I’ve been hiking and camping before, so
I’m used to bringing these in case I need them.”
She walked to Wang Xiao and gave him the beef jerky. He took it and nodded his head in thanks.
Meng Lang received the chocolate and said cheerfully, ‘You look so gentle, I didn’t expect you to be so sporty. Why don’t I add you on Wechat? We can hang out in the future.”
Gu Wan replied with a smile, “Sure.”
Then, they added each other on Wechat.
After that, she asked Wang Xiao, “Can I add you?”
Since she had already asked, Wang Xiao was too embarrassed to refuse and accepted it. Wang Yun and Jiang Qing also added them on Wechat when they saw this.
Gu Wan took the phone and turned to Lu Shen, but he said gently, “I was in a hurry when I went out this morning and didn’t bring my phone. Chuchu, you can send mine to your sister later.”
Gu Chu looked up at Gu Wan’s bag. It was bulging. It was definitely more than food for three to five people. It was obvious that she had come prepared.
She curled her lips and asked with a smile, “You brought so many things?”
Gu Wan put away her phone and replied, “1’m a little paranoid. It’s always good to prepare more.”
Gu Chu just looked at her quietly and did not say anything.
Gu Wan took the chocolate awkwardly and came to Feng Jia. “Mr. Feng, do you want to eat some too?”
Feng Jia glanced at it and rejected, “I’m not hungry, thank you.”
Gu Chu shouted from the side, “He doesn’t want it, then give it to me!”
She was still leaning against a rock and her voice sounded lazy. Not far away, there was a row of wildflowers blooming behind her.
Gu Wan recalled what Meng Lang had just said. A flower from Haicheng City…
