Changqing was also embarrassed. It was really inconvenient for a man to tag along, but it wasn’t safe for the women to go to the woods in the dark with minimal light. Upon hearing Song Chuyi’s words, she called Robben and Lolita along without thinking. The two little fellows immediately surrounded them enthusiastically and followed them to the bushes.

Li Shaobin yawned and was bewildered. “What are they going there for?”

Hu Zhi’s head hurt. Boss had a negative understanding of women. “Nature’s call before sleeping.”

“Nature’s call?” Li Shaobin blanked out for a while. He admitted that he suddenly thought of an especially dirty image and his face started to burn.

Song Chuyi frowned and kicked his leg.

Li Shaobin said with pain, “I have the sudden urge to answer nature’s call too.”

Hu Zhi whispered by his ear lecherously, “Boss, are you thinking of that kind of nature’s call or that kind of nature’s call?”

Li Shaobin understood what he meant and turned around to kick his leg.

This b*stard is too obscene.

I’m a decent, good man.

After Changqing and the gang returned, they went to sleep. Li Shaobin and Hu Zhi also squeezed into Lin Yueli’s tent.

Song Chuyi lay facing up on the picnic mat as he watched the stars and round moon in the sky.

The mountain breeze blew and it wasn’t warm, but there were just endless mosquitoes buzzing by his ears. He wasn’t the only one who was annoyed; even Robben and Lolita were chasing the mosquitoes around, biting and even barking angrily.

He called the two dogs back and gave them a harsh lecture before Robben and Lolita lay quietly by his side.

In the tent, Changqing couldn’t really fall asleep.

Actually, after a whole day’s hike, she was quite tired and very sleepy but was unable to sleep no matter how hard she tried. On the other hand, Ruan Yang and Guan Ying beside her started breathing steadily in no time at all.

She opened her eyes and could see a faint silhouette outside the tent.

She watched that faint silhouette and slowly, her eyes turned hot. Slowly, she fell asleep drowsily but woke up again after sleeping for a short while.

When she opened her eyes, the night was exceptionally quiet and she could even hear the sounds of smacking mosquitoes from outside.

She tossed and turned for a while before she eventually crawled out from the tent carefully.

On the picnic mat outside, Song Chuyi was lying on Robben’s stomach while Lolita curled up lazily by his feet. The two dogs were sleeping pretty soundly while he had his eyes wide open, smacking mosquitoes and scratching his arm.

Upon hearing the soft movements coming from the tent, he looked over and saw a pair of eyes shining in the dark.

Robben and Lolita also heard the sounds and immediately wagged their tails passionately.

This one-man, two-dogs combo watching her with glimmering eyes made a sense of warmth sweep past Changqing’s little heart. She quickly lowered her head and touched her nose as she passed him a bottle of hydrosol she was hiding behind her back.

Song Chuyi stared at the bottle of hydrosol for a few seconds and sat up slowly. He reached out, not to grab the bottle but her wrist.

Changqing was stunned. In the darkness, her face started to feel warm. His arm flexed and with a sudden use of strength, her body leaned towards his and she fell into his embrace. She felt a warm breath enveloping her and she struggled for a while. The two had hiked the entire day and hadn’t taken a shower so they didn’t smell really good and were sticky.

Song Chuyi grabbed her hand and placed it on his face. She could immediately feel a few mosquito bites and under the moonlight, she could also see a few more mosquito bites on his neck. He was rarely under the sun, so he was fair. Mosquitoes loved to bite people with such complexions. Moreover, the mosquitoes up in the mountains were more ruthless and their bites made one swell up unusually as well.

“The itch is killing me,” he said by her ear. His thin lips were burning her ears as though he was setting them on fire. She squirmed and struggled and he suddenly lowered his head, capturing her little lips in a deep kiss.

The smell of cake assailed her mouth and Changqing pushed him in shock. She was about to go crazy. There were people sleeping in the two tents just a few meters away from them! It would be so embarrassing if they were to wake them up.

However, Song Chuyi didn’t let loose and became bolder in his attack. His tongue kept moving towards the inner parts of her mouth like a mischievous little hand.

This stinky scoundrel, trying to act all gangster with her again.

Outside, Song Chuyi opened the bottle of hydrosol and applied it bit by bit on the parts where he got bitten.

Although he had never gotten so many mosquito bites before, it was a night that seemed to be worth it all.

The next morning, before it was even six, the sun began to rise from the east as rays of sunlight started to shoot out of the horizon.

Lin Yueli had set an alarm so he woke up first and woke James up. Li Shaobin and Hu Zhi were also woken up by the alarm. The two were so sleepy they felt like cursing. What was so great about the sunrise?

Seeing as Lin Yueli was going to the next tent to wake the three women up, the two of them crawled up as well. Song Chuyi woke up from the piercing rays of the morning sun. When he opened his eyes, he happened to see Changqing coming out from the tent. Their gazes met and she quickly lifted her head to look at the sky as though her eyes had been met with fire.

Lin Yueli looked at both of them and clenched his fists. He walked over to Changqing and asked gently, “What do you think of today’s sunrise compared to yesterday’s sunset?”

Changqing was stunned. Although she was watching the sunrise just now, she wasn’t thinking about that. Now that Lin Yueli mentioned it, she took a quick, close look at it and nodded, pretending to admire its beauty. “Each has its uniqueness and beauty.”

“I prefer the sunrise more.” Lin Yueli watched her profile that was enveloped by the sun’s rays. “The sunrise gives one a feeling of endless hope. The whole world is bright because of the sunrise.”

Li Shaobin eavesdropped for a while and felt sour. He really felt like kicking Lin Yueli down the mountain. He turned his head around and saw that Song Chuyi could still admire the sunrise calmly, standing in the near distance. How worrisome.

“Can you please excuse me?” A gentle voice broke his train of thought.

Li Shaobin turned around. Ruan Yang was standing behind him holding her phone, looking disheveled. Her long, black hair was slightly messy and she was wearing an oversized black t-shirt, making her skin look as fair as the milk he drank every morning in contrast.

He was stunned and wanted to move to the side subconsciously. However, very soon, he stopped in his tracks. “Why must I make way? Can’t you move to the side?”

“Your spot is higher; I’ll get a better picture there,” Ruan Yang said gently.

Li Shaobin blinked and turned to look elsewhere. “I’m not moving.”

Ruan Yang: “…”

She rolled her eyes secretly and walked to another spot. She wasn’t going to beg him, so she’d better find another spot.

Hu Zhi, who was standing at the side, witnessed this scene and was frustrated. He said softly, “Boss, isn’t Beauty Ruan just borrowing your spot for a while? Do you have to be so petty?”

Li Shaobin snorted. “If I moved just because she told me to, how would I still have a standing in society?”

“Boss, if you carry on like this, even men wouldn’t set their eyes on you.” Hu Zhi walked away quietly.

Changqing took her phone to record a video then uploaded it on Weibo.

Lin Yueli helped the three women take a photo together. His photography skills weren’t bad and he captured the lighting very well. The photo came out very well, so he was highly-praised by Changqing and the other two. “Yueli, it’s such a pity you’re not a professional photographer.”

Li Shaobin felt unhappy hearing that. He stretched lazily and took out his phone, saying to Song Chuyi, “Old Song, let’s take a picture too. Although my photography skills are mediocre, no one cares about skills nowadays. The beauty lens is almighty.”

The corners of Song Chuyi’s lips twitched helplessly. However, he still forced himself to cooperate with Li Shaobin.

Lin Yueli glanced at them before explaining to the women, “Although the effect from beauty lenses is great, it’s akin to doing plastic surgery. There are more and more people who use beauty lenses nowadays, so there are fewer talented people when it comes to the study of SLR and photography.”

Ruan Yang nodded with understanding. “That’s right. We should still continue to learn photography as a traditional skill. Besides, even some men download beauty lenses on their phones; I really have nothing to say about that.”

Li Shaobin exploded the moment he heard that. Weren’t they targeting him? “Why can’t men use beauty lenses? Is there a law in this country that forbids it?”

“Didn’t I say I had nothing to say about that? I didn’t even say that it’s not good.” Ruan Yang gave him a “you’re-uneducated” look, causing Li Shaobin to boil with anger.

Hu Zhi sympathized with him silently for a while. That was why one should never offend women.

As the sun rose slowly, everyone started to pack up the necessities for the downward hike and dismantle the tent.

Song Chuyi rolled the picnic mat up and walked to Changqing, who was still taking photos.

His shoulders brushed past hers and Changqing turned her head slightly. She heard him say, at a volume only the two of them could hear: “If there’s a chance in the future, I’ll watch the sunrise with you here.”

Changqing’s hands holding her phone shook.

In the future…

We’re already at this stage. Is there any future to speak of?

How were they going to face Song Huaisheng and Song Chulang in the future?

Changqing lowered her lids silently.

She didn’t dare to think of a future with him.

Song Chuyi watched her gently with a deep gaze that seemed to encompass a hundred and million words that he wanted to say.

Now, he didn’t want to say too much because he knew there were too many unresolved problems between them.

It was only by resolving all these problems that he could hug her and hold her hand in front of people without any worries.

However, at this very moment, he was willing to stand beside her quietly on this mountain and enjoy the sunrise.

Sometimes, when two people were together, there didn’t need to be physical contact to feel each other deeply.

It was simply beautiful just being together.

“Changqing, can you come and give us a hand?” Lin Yueli beckoned her over from not far away.

Changqing glanced at Song Chuyi and turned to help the rest dismantle the tents.

They hiked down to the mid-way point where the cable-car service was and took the cable-car down.

After they got to the foot of the mountain, Changqing left in Lin Yueli’s car and Song Chuyi didn’t stop her.

Li Shaobin, on the other hand, smacked the steering wheel anxiously. “Old Song, we came all the way here to catch them and after feeding mosquitoes for the entire night, not eating or sleeping to our fill, how could you just let Changqing leave with that Lin guy?”

“Aren’t there other people with them?” Song Chuyi said slowly with his arm propped on the window.
