Lin Xun obediently went to wait downstairs at the girls' dormitory. To avoid being seen by others, he deliberately kept a distance from his senior.
However, we still waited for more than ten minutes.
Lin Xun didn't dare ask his senior when she would come down on his phone. He was joking; if he asked that, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?
When Su Qingshi and Jiang Yunxiao came down, they also saw Lin Xun waiting dozens of meters away.
Upon seeing the two women, Lin Xun's eyes lit up, and he immediately felt that his wait had been worthwhile.
Since today involved sports, Su Qingshi wore a short-sleeved shirt, loose casual pants, and a pair of brown-yellow sneakers. Her hair was tied in a high ponytail, exuding a mature and capable aura. Coupled with her cold expression, she had a kind of aloofness that kept strangers at bay.
Su Qingshi applied a light touch of lipstick and did some simple makeup; her very light makeup was still stunning.
In contrast to her, Jiang Yunxiao was a completely different person. Her long, wavy hair was styled into a cute bun at the back of her head, revealing a delicate face the size of a palm. Her features were exquisitely made up, and her bright, lively eyes revealed a mischievousness. Her outfit was even more sexy, with a black tight-fitting vest and tight black denim shorts, revealing a pair of long, straight legs like chopsticks. Her skin was delicate and smooth, and her figure was hot. She was definitely a sexy girl.
Here's the senior you wanted, haha.
This is Jiang Yunxiao's personality: fiery, cheerful, and generous.
"Junior, am I good-looking?"
Jiang Yunxiao gave Lin Xun a flirtatious wink, sending him a knowing look.
Su Qingshi remained expressionless.
Lin Xun also remained expressionless: "My senior is the prettiest."
Jiang Yunxiao's face darkened: "Was it because I didn't show enough skin?"
Lin Xun ignored her, focusing on his own thoughts, and diligently took the phone and mini bear bag from his senior.
"Senior, let me help you with that."
"Thank you." Su Qingshi smiled at him.
Jiang Yunxiao rolled her eyes. Why did she have to be so impulsive as to come out with them?
Lin Xun hailed a taxi. The two women sat in the back seat, while Lin Xun sat in the front passenger seat.
The driver, a middle-aged man, noticed the young man with two beautiful women and asked curiously, "Handsome guy and beautiful lady, planning to go hiking?"
“Yes, Master,” Lin Xun replied.
"Hehe, judging from your appearance, this must be your first time climbing Wanxiang Mountain, right?" the driver said with a smile.
"Um... is there anything I should be careful about?"
Lin Xun thought there were some special requirements for climbing the mountain, and Su Qingshi and Jiang Yunxiao also looked over with doubt.
Although they spent a long time at Nanjing University, they had never been to Wanxiang Mountain; they usually traveled to other places for leisure.
When the driver saw several pairs of clear eyes looking at him, his lips twitched, and he said with an awkward smile, "Well, I was just asking, I didn't mean anything by it, and I've never climbed it before."
Who understands? He just wanted to find a topic to talk about, but he ended up killing the conversation himself.
Before long, the car arrived at a roadside. There were some places at the foot of the mountain where it was inconvenient to drive, so they had to park outside.
"Wanxiang Mountain used to look quite nice from a distance, but how come it looks so beautiful up close?" Jiang Yunxiao exclaimed, gazing up at the towering peak.
It was Lin Xun's first time climbing a mountain, and he felt a little excited.
“Wanxiang Mountain is a major scenic spot in the southern part of the city. It has very unique features, and climbing is free,” Su Qingshi said, her tone sounding very much like Jiang Yunxiao’s.
"Today's goal: the mountaintop!"
"Set off!"
The group of people began to climb the steep stone steps. Because it was morning, there weren't many people there, but at a glance, there were indeed quite a few people.
At first, the three of them didn't think much of it, as if it were just like going up the stairs in the teaching building. But after climbing countless steps, Jiang Yunxiao and the others started to pant for breath.
Passersby frequently glanced at the three of them, their faces bearing kind smiles.
After all, the three of them were quite eye-catching on this long staircase.
The two girls were incredibly beautiful, and Lin Xun, the only male among them, was undeniably handsome, making him look like a celebrity.
Fortunately, the youthful energy and still somewhat immature faces of the group dispelled their doubts. After all, most big stars who have debuted and gained fame are already over twenty-five years old.
These people are clearly college students.
Young people are so energetic! They actually dared to challenge Wanxiang Mountain.
"Senior, why do I feel like the way they look at us, whether it's their eyes or their smiles, is like they're watching a good show?" Lin Xun quietly asked his senior.
Su Qingshi glanced at him and said, "Is it possible that they think we're overestimating ourselves?"
"Hmm? Where should I begin?" Jiang Yunxiao frowned.
Su Qingshi said calmly, "Weren't you quite confident at the foot of the mountain just now? How do you feel now?"
Jiang Yunxiao: ...
Believe it or not, they are only a little over a hundred meters away from the foot of the mountain from this position, but they are still less than one-fifth of the way to Wanxiang Mountain.
She was already exhausted; if she were to climb to the top of the mountain, it would be truly risky…
The three continued climbing for another ten minutes or so, by which time Jiang Yunxiao's face looked like a dead dog.
"I can't go on... Oh my god, I can't climb anymore, let me rest for a while." Jiang Yunxiao's face was a little pale, and sweat soaked the two strands of hair on her forehead. She immediately slumped down without any regard for her image.
Lin Xun looked at Su Qingshi and found that although she was also sweating, she was in pretty good condition.
Before he could speak, the senior sat down next to Jiang Yunxiao and waved to him, saying, "Come sit down for a while."
Lin Xun nodded and sat down next to his senior.
"Handsome guy/beautiful lady, would you like to experience 'human-assisted bridge carrying'?"
A few middle-aged men passed by, saw Lin Xun and his group, and asked them a question warmly.
Lin Xun waved his hand: "No need, thank you."
Carrying a bridge by hand is physically demanding work. Normally, two people carry one tourist to the top of the mountain, but the price is not low. This kind of manual bridge carrying is very common when climbing mountains.
Lin Xun had just seen two burly men carrying an older woman up the mountain.
He had to admit he admired them; they were forced into this situation to earn a living through hard work.
The long ladder was bustling with people; some insisted on taking one step at a time, while others carefully descended the mountain. The flow of people began to increase.
Lin Xun bought three bottles of water and some food from a small vendor and handed them to his senior and Jiang Yunxiao.
After a short rest, the three of them resumed their activities.
After warming up, the three of them lasted longer this time and reached the halfway point of the mountain.
"We've been climbing for over an hour and we're only halfway up the mountain."
Lin Xun sighed, saying that although he had been exercising frequently during this period, climbing mountains was really physically demanding.
"Is it no use?" Su Qingshi's calm voice came through.
Lin Xun's face darkened with anger: "Senior, how could you say your boyfriend is no good? Keep climbing!"
