Shen Shiqing was still waiting under the grape trellis, his eyes fixed on the water in the bowl.
It is said that one can see the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl meeting on the Magpie Bridge on the water's surface, and Shen Shiqing wanted to see if it was true.
An hour has passed.
10 PM.
Shen Shiqing was getting sleepy from waiting, but still didn't see him. Lu Jingchu stayed with her.
She looked at the water, and he looked at her.
"Teacher Lu, why don't you go back and rest first? I can wait by myself." How could Shen Shiqing let Lu Jingchu keep her waiting, even though she quite liked being with Lu Jingchu?
After all, it's quite nice to spend time with a normal, handsome guy.
Moreover, Grandma Lin also prepared two rooms for them to stay in, which was very convenient and fortunate, so they didn't even need to use the tent.
"It's okay, I want to see too." Lu Jingchu's voice slid through Shen Shiqing's heart, like a clear, cold moonlight falling from the sky.
"good."
Shen Shiqing simply lay down on the table to read, but unexpectedly fell asleep after only a short while.
Lu Jingchu looked at Shen Shiqing's sleeping face and sighed softly. She called Shen Shiqing's name gently, but she did not move or react.
Lu Jingchu guessed that she was probably too tired from working during the day, which was why she could fall asleep so easily at night and was difficult to wake up.
Lu Jingchu apologized, then picked up Shen Shiqing by the waist and carried her into the house.
Gently placing Shen Shiqing on the bed, Lu Jingchu knelt down to take off her shoes. The mountain night was a bit chilly, so Lu Jingchu covered Shen Shiqing with a thin blanket and made sure she was asleep before turning to leave.
Holy crap, are they filming an idol drama? Excuse me...
[Let's not even talk about filming... I've never seen Lu Jingchu act like this towards any girl even when we're filming...]
[Oh my god, Shi Jie looks so cute sleeping! Even her side profile is gorgeous when she's lying down!!!]
Don't even mention that Actor Lu loves watching it, I love watching it too!!! Hehehe
[Does Brother Lu really want to see some Cowherd and Weaver Girl story? I don't think so. He just wants to spend time with Sister Shi!!!]
[Please stop talking, please stop talking! Even I, a die-hard fan, am starting to waver... Aaaaaaaahhhhhhh]
[Hahaha, welcome to our Chu Shi CP family! ]
Thank you, please let me have some peace and quiet...
Now both sides' solo fans are getting a little flustered. Are these two idols really going to do this?!
And it seems...? It appears the Best Actor prefers...?
The solo fans felt they were seeing things, that it was too late and their brains couldn't process it, and decided to go to sleep immediately and discuss it again tomorrow.
Meanwhile, the CP fans started a new round of revelry, making a great fuss all night long, with the super topic buzzing with excitement, as if their favorite CP had already gotten married.
Lu Jingchu gently closed the door, returned to the grape trellis, and sat quietly looking at the water in the bowl.
The water remained completely still, with only a silver needle lying quietly at the bottom of the bowl, not even causing a ripple.
Occasionally, he would look up at the moon, and no one knew what he was thinking. They only felt that he too was tinged with the moonlight, as cool and distant as the moonlight itself.
...
The next morning at six o'clock.
sunrise.
Xing Jianan woke up early. The incense she lit last night had burned out, leaving only the wooden stick stuck in the ashes.
He slightly furrowed his brows, his long legs stepping out of the temple threshold. He looked up, and just then, the sun rose.
The rosy dawn shone on the earth, first illuminating his face, making him appear as if he were bathed in light.
He saw both the sunrise and sunset; they were beautiful, he thought.
He smiled, but it was a forced smile, and his eyes stung a little from the sunlight.
[I knew it!!! Following Xing Jianan meant we'd see the sunrise, hahaha!]
[It's so beautiful! I want to go to Cangqiong Mountain next time too, anyone want to join a group??!!!]
【!! The one in front!! Me!! Me!! I'll go with you!!!】
[OMG, the light shines so beautifully on Xing Jianan... she looks so divine...]
Indeed... but he doesn't seem very happy...
[Maybe I was just blinded by the sunlight? Anyway, I'm really happy. Who wouldn't be happy to wake up to such a beautiful view? Hahahaha]
That's true, I guess I misjudged it...
Du Hewen got up early and ate half a bread, and drank the water with it, but that wasn't a problem for him.
Yesterday, when he went to look for fruit, he found a mountain spring where you could get unlimited refills. It was ice-cold, perfect for a hot summer day.
You could say he's lucky.
But what tormented him the most was the straw weaving.
He spent half the day yesterday trying to finish a piece, but he decided to try again today. Maybe he'll get some praise from his wife when he gets home?
With that thought in mind, he started working hard again, with a determination to succeed.
Needless to say, Shi Xia slept until the sun was high in the sky, not getting up until almost noon.
She still had some food left, so she stayed under those few lychee trees. She didn't have to go anywhere; she wouldn't go hungry anyway, and she wouldn't give up easily.
Putting everything else aside, these lychees are quite delicious, so Shi Xia decided to pick some to take back for the others to try as well.
And it's FREE!!!
They got right to it. The lychee trees weren't very tall, and the fruit grew low, within easy reach.
Xiao Xia picked and ate as she went. Although her efficiency was a bit low, the lychees were high in sugar, so she wasn't hungry. Instead, she picked even more enthusiastically, filling her backpack to the brim.
My backpack is full, I need to figure out how to bring more back, since the season will probably be over by the time I come again, and she might not even be able to find this place again.
Before long, Shi Xia had an idea! That's it, that's it!!!
...
Qin Shiyue was bitten by mosquitoes so badly last night that she couldn't sleep all night. She fell asleep this morning and slept until noon.
Netizens commented: Great, now he doesn't even need to eat anything, since he has nothing to eat anyway.
I was fine when I was asleep, I didn't feel hungry, but I was really hungry when I woke up.
There's one loaf of bread left. Should I eat it or not?
Qin Shiyue picked a flower, plucking off the petals one by one, muttering incantations to herself.
"Eat, don't eat, eat, don't eat, eat, don't eat, eat, don't eat, eat, don't eat, eat, don't eat..."
He picked one flower, then another, and repeated the question over and over again, but still couldn't come up with an answer.
Forget it!!! I don't care anymore!!! I'll just eat it anyway, there are only 6 hours left, I can just bear it.
Wait a minute, I don't think I'll have to walk out by myself after this is all over...
Qin Shiyue was struck by lightning.
Will I be able to get out of here alive...? The compass is useless now... I don't even know where I am...
Why did I even participate in this show in the first place... I can't figure it out, I just can't understand it.
[Hahahaha, the way Qin Shi Yue counts flower petals is hilarious! Hahahaha!]
I thought they were making some important decision... but it turns out it was just deciding whether or not to eat bread...
It's hard to judge; I wish him success...
I wish him good luck...
Agent: It's hard for me to say either. I wish you success, young master...
