Chapter 164 Iron Love: The Road to the Summit, Hero Saves the Beauty
Just as she was about to make intimate contact with the ground, Luo Luo instinctively screamed.
Instinctively, I hugged the camera to my chest, closed my eyes, and waited for it to fall.
However.
A sharp pain shot through my forehead.
It looked like it had fallen, but it also looked like it hadn't.
?
Luo Luo opened one eye.
I realized that I hadn't even landed yet.
Open one eye again.
Suddenly I realized that something was blocking my head.
...It seems to be Jiang Xiuyuan's hand? ??
Indeed, at this moment, Luo Luo's feet were braced against the rocks beside her, her whole body tilted at a 45° angle, and her head was held down by Jiang Xiuyuan's iron claw-like hand, preventing her from falling.
With the ground and Jiang Xiuyuan as the sides of the right triangle and Luo Luo as the hypotenuse, a right triangle is formed.
Jiang Xiuyuan quickly promoted Luo Luo to the position of official wife.
That scene just happened in a few seconds, but Jiang Xiuyuan's suffocatingly straight-man-like actions directly blew up the fans in the barrage who were disappointed in him.
It seems like he rescued the damsel in distress, but it also seems like he couldn't.
For a moment, it was hard to tell whether he was a chivalrous hero or a villain.
[While others experience blush-inducing princess carries that instantly ignite romance, yours is like a martial arts drama in short sleeves, where you're performing a magical technique to absorb stars.]
Luo Luo: At that moment, I was terrified.
[Little brother, if you keep going like this, even money and good looks won't save you from being single!]
The audience is laughing so hard they can't live anymore.
Jiang Xiuyuan felt that he had performed well.
Luo Luo brushed her ruffled hair aside and thanked him.
My little brother is so easy to please!
I hate that he's so straight, but I also find his straightness kind of cute.
Just as the sisters in the live chat were getting worried sick, Jiang Xiuyuan suddenly stopped Luo Luo, who was about to sit down.
"Wait a moment."
Luo Luo: "...?"
Before she could ask, she saw Jiang Xiuyuan lay a moisture-proof mat on the stone slab.
“The stones in the mountains get damp from the cold at night, and it’s not good to sit on them after they’ve been exposed to the sun.”
Luo Luo: "...Why didn't you just say it's easy to get hemorrhoids?"
Jiang Xiuyuan: "..."
audience:……
[It's not just my younger brother who's straight; even my father is practically made of titanium alloy.]
[Now I understand why Luo's father went on over thirty blind dates and never succeeded even once.]
They always manage to say or do something that breaks your defenses just when you're about to be moved.
[Director, you really need to take a look at this couple! If they keep going like this, it'll turn into a socialist brotherhood!]
Friends, next time please just say "the stone is unclean," okay?
Just as the audience was discussing it, it seemed that these two people couldn't get away from hemorrhoids.
Jiang Xiuyuan: "Couldn't you be a little more tactful?"
Luo Luo: "Is hemorrhoids something to be ashamed of? Don't avoid seeking medical help."
Jiang Xiuyuan: "This is not how you use the word 'avoid seeking medical treatment for fear of illness,' and I have never had hemorrhoids."
Luo Luo: "Wow, little brother, you even know idioms! Seriously, how could you not have hemorrhoids? These days, aren't hemorrhoids as common as appendicitis?"
Jiang Xiuyuan: "Oh, I understand, you have to pass."
Luo Luo: "So what if I had it? I'm all better now, I dare to admit it, do you dare to admit it?"
Jiang Xiuyuan: "...I never received it, why should I admit it?"
Luo Luo: "See? You still won't admit it."
Jiang Xiuyuan: "...Okay, okay, I admit I was wrong, alright?"
Luo Luo: "See? I told you you had it! Hemorrhoids are such a common disease, eight out of ten people have it, there's nothing shameful about having it."
Luo Luo patted Jiang Xiuyuan on the shoulder, speaking earnestly.
To the audience's surprise, the two talked most about hemorrhoids.
Okay, now the whole country knows that Uncle Luo had hemorrhoids.
I used to not understand love, until someone brought up her past struggles with hemorrhoids...
I don't understand, and I'm deeply shocked.
[Young Master Jiang: If I had hemorrhoids, would you still love me? Uncle Luo: Not only would I love you, but I'd also discuss the hemorrhoids of love with you.]
#ShuraCP's Love Affair with Hemorrhoids
A vivid and evocative phrase has climbed to the top of the trending searches.
The person involved was completely unaware.
Meanwhile, the remaining guests also arrived.
"It's quite cool under this tree. Shall we rest here for a while at noon and continue our journey later?"
Song Ying's suggestion was quickly accepted by the others.
Ji Zhiheng took out a portable gas stove from his backpack, installed the gas cylinder, put the pot on it, poured in two bottles of mineral water, and started boiling water to cook instant noodles.
The others were just thinking of grabbing a bite of bread to tide them over, but Ji Zhiheng's actions elevated the whole experience to a whole new level.
The bread in my hand no longer tastes good.
The production team provided the same supplies for everyone, so Qin Shu also took out a stove.
He simply asked Song Ying to watch the pot while he boiled the water, and then he turned back along the way he came. Not long after, he returned with a handful of wild vegetables.
Not only that, but he also had two bird eggs in his hand.
Jiang Xiuyuan: ...?
A real man never admits defeat, so he left Luo Luo to watch the water while he went off to find some game.
Just as the water was about to boil, Jiang Xiuyuan returned carrying a bag of mushrooms and a pheasant with a crooked neck.
Everyone: ...?
"How about that? Aren't I amazing?"
Jiang Xiuyuan looked proud.
Luo Luo seemed to want to speak but hesitated, yet still wanted to.
"I don't mean to discourage you, but brother, you can't just throw this pheasant in the pot to boil, can you? And we only have a few bottles of water, not even enough for you to pluck and clean it, right?"
Ji Zhiheng tossed the goji berries he carried with him into the instant noodles, then glanced at the mushrooms Jiang Xiuyuan had placed on the ground.
"Although I don't mean to discourage you, little brother, eating these mushrooms might cause poisoning."
Jiang Xiuyuan: "...?? So all my work was for nothing?"
[Young Master Jiang: It turns out that all his great power was ultimately useless; who can understand the pain of a hero's downfall?]
[His survival skills are off the charts, and so are his daredevil tendencies.]
White pole, red umbrella, eat the umbrella and lie on the board.
[All my fun today was thanks to Fourth Young Master Jiang. What kind of lovable goofball from a wealthy family is he?!]
Seeing that Jiang Xiuyuan was getting dejected, Song Ying went up and patted him on the shoulder.
"It's not all for nothing. Picking mushrooms can serve as a negative example, which is very educational. As for you, pheasant, take it. There should be tools to process it on the mountain. It'll be a good extra meal for tonight."
"Sister, you're the best."
Finally feeling the warmth, Jiang Xiuyuan couldn't help but open his arms, wanting to give Song Ying a big hug.
However, Song Ying poked her chest and pulled her away.
"Take your chicken away."
The world where only Jiang Xiuyuan was injured was achieved.
Fortunately, Luo Luo, in a display of extreme righteousness, patted the seat next to him.
"Come on, Dad will treat you to lunch today."
As he spoke, he threw the instant noodles into the pot, then opened the can of ham, made a few crisscross cuts inside with a knife, and threw it into the pot.
Although it's simple and straightforward, that's the beauty of instant noodles: they're convenient and quick, and they can't taste bad no matter how you cook them.
After boiling for a few minutes, Luo Luo scooped out the first bowl and handed it to Jiang Xiuyuan.
Then I noticed his dirty hands, which were still wet from tying up pheasants with rope.
"..."
Luo Luo put down the bowl, picked up a bottle of water, and then pinched his sleeve, pulling him to the side, "Come, come, come here."
Jiang Xiuyuan obediently followed along.
"Crouch down, or just squat down." Luo Luo unscrewed the bottle cap. "Wash your hands before you eat."
"oh."
Jiang Xiuyuan responded, and the two of them, one poured water and the other rubbed his hands, while the others stood by and teased and chuckled.
[Waaah, Father Luo has finally become a man of principle! He's finally showing some love and care. The Fourth Young Master's spring has arrived!]
[Now they're starting to look like a couple.]
The elderly mother smiled with relief.
However, as she stood up, Luo Luo noticed something and suddenly stared intently at Jiang Xiuyuan.
"Wait, don't move!"
Jiang Xiuyuan was taken aback.
Immediately afterwards, Luo Luo reached out and touched his face.
Jiang Xiuyuan's heart suddenly raced.
A strange flutter welled up in his heart, the pounding of his heart seemed to be audible, and Luo Luo's beautiful almond-shaped eyes gazed at him intently and affectionately.
The moment their eyes met, Jiang Xiuyuan's ears turned bright red.
He even became careful with his breathing, as if the sound of his breathing would frighten people.
What is Luo Luo trying to do?
She wouldn't be planning anything against me, would she?
It's so embarrassing to be in such a public place, with so many people watching and several cameras filming...
What can he do to make it seem like this isn't his first time...?
What should have been just a few seconds felt like an eternity to Jiang Xiuyuan.
Just as Jiang Xiuyuan's heart was pounding and his whole body was pounding, Luo Luo's hand finally landed on his face.
Then, he picked a chicken feather from his forehead.
"You were just catching a pheasant, how come you got feathers all over your face?"
Luo Luo's voice betrayed her disdain. She tossed the chicken feather aside and clapped her hands. "Alright, come on, let's eat."
Jiang Xiuyuan: ...
[Hilarious! The innocent young man, Fourth Master Jiang, ultimately misplaced his affections.]
[The younger brother's face, in just a few seconds, vividly portrayed a heart-wrenching love story; it was absolutely hilarious!]
[As expected, I shouldn't have had any hope for the Shura couple; their couple name itself destined them to be destined to be apart.]
Jiang Xiuyuan was eating instant noodles while holding a bowl.
He deliberately avoided the crowd and squatted in a corner.
The reason for asking is simply to stay cool, not because I'm embarrassed about being overly social.
After the meal, washing the pots became a new problem.
Song Ying said, "Lanxiang Mountain is a tourist development area. There are many trees planted by humans along the way, and there are also vendors who set up stalls. In order to facilitate irrigation and domestic water use, people often tap the water taps every now and then."
Upon hearing this, Qin Shu echoed.
“I remember now, on my way here, I saw a small pool with a tap.”
"Let's go, let's go, let's wash the pot! I'll also wash my face while I'm at it, I feel like I smell like wild chickens all over."
"Alright, let's go together."
The two agreed to leave together. Qin Shu helped Ji Zhiheng take the pots and bowls with her to wash, while Ji Zhiheng stayed behind to clean up the portable gas stove.
"It's so strange, why do foreign friends always seem to appear and disappear like a dragon?"
Luo Luo looked around and suddenly realized that Zachary was gone again. "Let me see what he's doing right now."
As he spoke, he took out his phone and turned on the live stream.
We've now reached the halfway point up the mountain. We have a signal, but it's not as strong as it should be. The video is choppy, like a slideshow. One second you're on the left, the next you're on the right, and then you're darting left and right again.
Is there a problem with my viewing signal, or is there a problem with the network connection of the live stream itself?
Upon hearing this, Song Ying explained, "Mobile phone signals rely on cell towers, while live streaming uses a dedicated communication network. These are two separate systems that do not interfere with each other. We have conducted tests before, and the viewers' end should be fine."
"I see." Luo Luo nodded, looked down at her own PowerPoint-like freeze, and sighed, "Oh no, I can't see what the handsome foreign guys are doing now."
[Don't panic, Dad! I'll take a look for you!]
The video signal was choppy, but the text was still working, and Luo Luo could see the comments.
"Okay, okay, you help me check."
[You're secretly looking at handsome guys behind Fourth Young Master Jiang's back, does he know?]
“I don’t need to carry him on my back, I can still look at him in front of him.”
Zachary is eating bread, playing on his phone, and taking selfies.
The live chat was filled with updates on Zachary's latest activities. Luo Luo exclaimed, "So even handsome guys like to show off. When we get to the top of the mountain, I can arrange a photoshoot with him!"
[Take the picture! Take a good one!]
"Wait, can you guys check where he is? How far away is he from us? I have a feeling we're out of luck with the big gift package!"

Meanwhile, on the other side...
Qin Shu and Jiang Xiuyuan were sitting in front of the director's monitor, watching the high-definition, smooth, and lag-free video.
Other staff members stood around the perimeter, keeping a certain distance between them, and surrounded the three people in the middle.
"President Qin, this is Zachary's entire walking route. There seems to be nothing unusual about it. Because our people have been following and filming him the whole time, it's basically all regular mountain paths. Like the place where he's stopped now, it's just an ordinary scenic spot in Lanxiang Mountain. There are usually quite a few visitors here, so there's nothing strange about it."
Does he take photos every time he goes to a new place?
Qin Shu pointed at Zachary, who was taking a selfie.
"Yes, I take pictures of everything. But before I met you guys, I only took pictures of scenery. Now it's become selfies. And I also send the photos to his mother."
"Mom?" Qin Shu raised her wrist and glanced at it. "Are you sure?"
"Mr. Qin, although my English isn't very good, I can still understand basic simple communication."
Qin Shu was silent for a moment, then stood up, patted the director on the shoulder, and said, "I understand. Keep watching, and come to me if you find any problems."
After saying this, Qin Shu took the washed pots and pans from the staff member next to him and walked back with Jiang Xiuyuan.
Jiang Xiuyuan asked in a low voice, "Brother-in-law, is there really something wrong with this Zachary?"
Qin Shu said, "I don't know if there's a problem, but he must have another purpose in coming to Lanxiang Mountain."
Qin Shu pointed to the time, "It's already past one o'clock in the afternoon, which is the early morning in the United States. His mother, Ms. Laura, once said in an interview with Global Entrepreneur that for a successful entrepreneur, health is always more important than work, because money can be earned back, but once a person is gone, you really have nothing left."
She said that she is a typical early-to-bed, late-to-rise person and often sleeps lightly. In order to ensure that she gets enough sleep and is full of energy during work hours, she always turns off her phone before going to bed and there are no electronic devices in the room that would disturb her rest until her personal assistant knocks on the door to wake her up the next day.
Given Zachary's intelligence, he would never normally make mistakes on such minor oversights.
The reason for such an obvious bug is probably because the person just arrived in China and made a mistake in time calculation.
What Qin Shu can discover, he will surely discover soon as well.
Qin Shu even anticipated what he would say.
