Seeing that it was Qiao Mei coming over, Shu Qingqing hurriedly swallowed the cold drink in her mouth, but choked because she swallowed too quickly.

"Cough cough... I'm fine, Qiao Qiao, it's just that the weather is a bit too hot today..."

When Qiao Mei and the others arrived, the sun was indeed very strong, so they didn't think much of it upon hearing this.

After helping Shu Qingqing straighten her back, she realized she couldn't see Shang Duojin and asked her, "Where is he?"

"He... he's still playing games up there, saying he's too lazy to come down."

Noticing that she was stuttering a little, Qiao Mei's eyes showed even more confusion. She exchanged a glance with Ao Cang and saw the same bewilderment in his eyes. She pretended not to have noticed anything and followed Shu Qingqing upstairs.

Once inside, they noticed that Shang Duojin's expression was also somewhat unnatural upon seeing Shu Qingqing, which basically confirmed their suspicions.

Knowing that Lei Ting also admired Ao Cang, Qiao Mei deliberately asked Ao Cang to use his personal charm to win Lei Ting over and take him aside for questioning during their visit to Yun Que Mountain Forest.

For some unknown reason, Shang Duojin and Shu Qingqing were somewhat absent-minded while strolling through the mountains.

Especially Shang Duojin, who didn't even care what Lei Ting was taken away to do.

Further ahead, there is a grove where you can rest along the way.

There weren't too many tourists over there. When Qiao Mei and the others went over to sit down and rest, they started talking about Shang Duojin's arranged marriage.

"When are we going to deal with Wan Shishi's matter?"

The forest at Yunque Mountain isn't too high; if you climb it continuously, it can be done in two hours.

Including the break time, it probably won't be dark yet when everything is over.

Shang Duojin finally came to his senses and told Qiao Mei that he had already asked someone to check the information after booking the hotel.

"If nothing unexpected happens, the information we find out today should be sent to me. After I read through it, I'll see which ones need to be verified. In short, we should be able to leave here within three days."

The Wan family's place is only so big, and they only need to investigate one person, so they don't really need to stay for too long.

Qiao Mei nodded: "That's good. But what's going on between you and Qingqing? You two seem really strange today."

There was still no news from Ao Cang's side, but Qiao Mei was already getting a little curious.

Upon hearing this, the two said in unison, "It's nothing!!"

After they finished speaking, they looked at each other again, and something seemed very strange to them.

At this moment, Ao Cang also returned with Lei Ting. Judging from Ao Cang's expression, Qiao Mei felt that the truth was somewhat complicated.

Because she had never seen Ao Cang show that kind of... well, I don't know how to describe it.

During the rest of the climb, Shang Duojin and Shu Qingqing seemed to speed up in order to avoid being questioned about the matter by Qiao Mei.

This gave Qiao Mei the opportunity to ask Ao Cang about his general situation.

He said that after Shu Qingqing heard Shang Duojin fart in the morning, she also saw Shang Duojin's abs.

Later, for some unknown reason, Shu Qingqing provoked Shang Duojin, who then took off his clothes and made her touch his abs.

Qiao Mei: "? Are you sure you didn't hear wrong, Cang Cang?"

Although her two friends usually like to bicker and tease each other, they would never say anything as outrageous as what happened now.

Touching someone's abs is something that normal friends of the opposite sex shouldn't do, at least in her opinion.

"But Mr. Shang actually has abs? This is the first time I've ever heard of that."

Ao Cang nodded in agreement: "I didn't realize it before either, but now it seems to be true."

"What do you think is going on with them right now, An'an?"

Ao Cang didn't understand human emotions very well, so he couldn't analyze what the situation was.

Qiao Mei sighed, feeling somewhat lost.

I was just about to say that she didn't know either.

Suddenly, she recalled that Shang Duojin had messaged her earlier, asking if Li Chonghua could treat him, as he felt that his heart rate had been a bit off lately.

"Heart rate... then isn't that...?"

As Qiao Mei murmured to herself, the truth seemed within reach, yet she could hardly believe it.

That can't be right. She hadn't noticed anything between Shang Duojin and Shu Qingqing before.

Moreover, Shu Qingqing definitely has a crush on Zuo Chenxing.

Ao Cang looked at her in confusion, waiting for her to continue, but she shook her head and denied it, saying, "No, it shouldn't be. I'll ask Qingqing again when we get back to the hotel tonight."

"Alright, but we still need to be careful while we're here. We don't know if Lai Tan and his gang might launch a sneak attack. Their target right now is you. I have to go back to the hotel with you tonight."

Qiao Mei certainly hadn't forgotten about this, and remembering that the suite had two rooms, she had no objections.

"Alright, let's book another suite then. I'll talk to Boss Shang and the others when we get down the mountain."

Now that she and Ao Cang are officially in a relationship, there's no need for her to live with Shu Qingqing anymore.

After descending the mountain, as the sun was setting, Qiao Mei found Shang Duojin and Shu Qingqing and told them about her plan to live with Ao Cang, but they both objected.

"no!"

"no!"

The two of them spoke at the same time, saying the same thing.

Shu Qingqing: "Qiaoqiao, I'll sleep with you. I really don't want to share a suite with some pervert who sleeps naked and farts all the time!"

Shang Duojin's face instantly darkened: "What a joke! You're talking like I want to live with a pervert like you, and you even want to touch my abs? Do you know that someone like you would definitely get arrested by the police if you were out there?!"

"Who are you calling a pervert? Shang Duojin?!"

"So what if I'm talking about you? You dare to do it but don't dare to admit it, huh?!"

The two were about to start fighting again as they were talking, and Qiao Mei was really having a headache. She had no choice but to tell Shu Qingqing to go to a suite with her.

But Ao Cang also had to go.

“You all know what Qiao Yingying did when she went crazy before. I’m afraid that if Cangcang doesn’t stay with me, something might happen to her.”

The suite has two rooms, and it's not like Shu Qingqing and Qiao Mei are sleeping in the same bed, so she has no objection.

After agreeing on the matter and booking a suite next to Shang Duojin's suite, Qiao Mei took advantage of the time after showering and enjoying the breeze on the balcony with Shu Qingqing to ask her about her doubts again.

“I’ve already had Cangcang ask Leiting and we know the general situation. Qingqing, tell me honestly, what exactly is going on between the two of you?”

Shu Qingqing felt nauseous just thinking about Shang Duojin. She was about to say something bad about him when she heard Qiao Mei continue, "By the way, he also asked me for help, saying that his heart rate has been acting strangely lately and he wants to get it checked. Do you think it could be related to your affair?"

The likelihood of an abnormal heart rate due to anger is relatively small.

Shu Qingqing thought of another possibility, and her beautiful eyes widened in disbelief as she took the lollipop out of her mouth.

"No way?"
