A friend of Xu Yanfeng met an acquaintance at a hotel.
That acquaintance was none other than Xu Yanfeng's girlfriend from university, who was now a thing of the past.
The two greete...
After Xia Xi finished a whole solid egg, ham, cheese and ciabatta sandwich and drank a cup of hot milk, she began to feel dizzy. It might also be the aftereffects of staying up late. She felt drowsy and took out a neck pillow from her backpack, put it around her neck, and leaned on Xu Yanfeng's shoulder to catch up on her sleep.
She thought his shoulders were too stiff and patted them with her hand: "Why can't they be softer?"
Xu Yanfeng wanted to laugh at her unreasonable words. Can he decide the structure of the body?
Even though she was saying critical words, she fell asleep surprisingly quickly. As the bus rocked and swayed slightly, her breathing gradually became even, and her lips were slightly pursed, with a sweet milky taste.
He always liked to bring her hot milk, or occasionally coffee.
Xu Yanfeng tilted his head and lowered his eyes, his gaze falling on her face. He didn't know whether she got up too late and had no time to put on makeup, or was too lazy to do so. Her face was bare, but her skin was visibly smooth and delicate, as if it was as delicate as a baby's.
He slid his fingertips across her cheek, raised his lips and chuckled silently, and stopped disturbing her.
During the two-hour drive, Xia Xi did not wake up at all and slept until the end. When she was woken up by Xu Yanfeng, she opened her eyes and looked dazed. She didn't know where she was. She only knew that her neck was sore. The neck pillow didn't seem to play the role it should have, and her waist was a little stiff.
She sat up straight with one hand on her waist and heard Xu Yanfeng whisper: "We're here. We have to walk the rest of the way by ourselves."
Xia Xi looked out the car window and saw green everywhere. It was early autumn and everything was still green. The mountains were lush and green, and the cliffs were rugged. The chirping of birds could be heard in the woods. If you listened carefully, you could also hear the sound of trickling water.
So comfortable.
Xia Xi put away the neck pillow, stretched his body like a bow, took a deep breath of the mountain breeze pouring in from the open car window, and experienced what it meant to be truly relaxed and happy.
The people in the car got off one after another, and Xia Xi and Xu Yanfeng were the last to leave.
Xu Yanfeng each took two bags, the other one was Xia Xi's. He got out of the car first, turned slightly sideways, and stretched out a hand inside. She had just woken up and her limbs were not coordinated enough, so he was worried that she would fall.
Xia Xi smiled and handed him her hand. He held her fingers tightly and helped her out of the car.
She jumped out of the car, but as expected, she lost her balance and fell into his arms.
Some were already used to it, their faces calm, while a few new members watched intently, their minds racing. Bored during the drive, they browsed the campus forums and learned a textbook story about the school beauty named Xia Xi's pursuit of her idol.
But not everyone can learn from this textbook. Some people are very self-aware and commented on the post: "Even if I had twelve guts, I still couldn't do what Xia Xi did."
Changyan Mountain is a very small mountain, which can be reached in two hours. The B&B they want to go to is halfway up the mountain, which can be reached in about an hour.
Everyone was full of energy, running and jumping all the way, and after forty minutes they saw the main entrance of the B&B.
It is run by a couple who saved enough money and wanted to live a leisurely life. Somehow they got the approval and opened a B&B here. It unexpectedly became popular online, and attracted the surrounding areas, and bars, coffee shops, pottery galleries, etc.
The director arranged for them to share a room, with Xu Yanfeng staying in a separate room. Xia Xi was living with a girl from the student union whom she had known for a long time and had a good relationship with. She put her things away, took a quick shower, and then lay down on the bed to continue sleeping.
After taking a two-hour bus ride and climbing a mountain for such a long time, we are currently focusing on resting and not carrying out any group activities.
Feng Xiaolai, who was sharing a room with Xia Xi, quietly packed up her things and wanted to walk around the B&B, so she took her cell phone and went out. After taking a few steps, she met Xu Yanfeng who was walking towards her.
"Is she in there?" Xu Yanfeng stopped and asked the person in front of him calmly.
This "she" of course refers to Xia Xi. Feng Xiaolai nodded and said, "Xia Xi went to bed after taking a bath."
Sleeping again? Xu Yanfeng's expression froze for a second. He changed his mind about looking for her and turned back the way he'd come. He bumped into a girl, who smiled at him, brushed her wavy hair by her ear, and spoke in a sweet voice, "Senior, I'm Cheng Manyi, a freshman. Nice to meet you."
"Um."
Xu Yanfeng had no expression on his face and responded coldly.
Cheng Manyi's expression froze for a moment before she smiled again. "Would you like some coffee? I saw there's a coffee machine in the kitchen. The boss said it's usable, so I'm going to make myself a cup of coffee."
"No, thank you."
Xu Yanfeng stepped aside and went to the terrace, where he sat on a walnut-colored folding chair, crossed his legs, and looked at the mountain scenery.
Cheng Manyi lightly followed, holding onto the door frame in the corridor leading to the terrace, and stared at the man intently.
Even when he is alone, he has a kind of alienated feeling that keeps people away, isolating him from everything around him. It is difficult to get close to him, let alone integrate into his life.
Cheng Manyi pursed her lips tightly, feeling timid. She didn't dare to go up and disturb them again, so she turned around and went to the kitchen to make coffee.
Maybe if she came over with coffee and started a topic, the atmosphere would be less awkward.

Xia Xi had a sound sleep and it was past lunch time.
When Feng Xiaolai got up from the bed, he was sitting on a wooden chair in the room, looking down at his phone. When he heard the noise, he looked up and asked, "Are you awake?"
Xia Xi said "hmm" in a hoarse voice, with a slight smile on his lips.
She went to the bathroom to wash her face, took out her makeup from her bag, and put on powder and drew her eyebrows in front of the mirror.
Feng Xiaolai's attention wasn't on her phone. She glanced at Xia Xi several times. During one of her glances, Xia Xi happened to catch her in the mirror. She was applying blush to her face. Without turning around, she casually asked, "Xiaolai, do you have something to say to me?"
"I..." Feng Xiaolai looked embarrassed. "First of all, I'm not saying anything bad about anyone. There was a girl, whose name I can't remember. She was new and had wavy hair. She was always being attentive to Xu Yanfeng, making him coffee and bringing him food."
