Chapter 265 Qualification



Shi Shangbai stopped talking after saying this. He thought that he had grown old and could now threaten Zhu Jin.

"I know you won't." Zhu Jin also laughed, and then looked at the driver in front of him who was listening to their conversation and kept glancing at them. He had the urge to take the translator out of his ear.

Shi Shangbai found her eyes funny and couldn't help but raise his hand and pat her shoulder, "Okay, stop staring." After he said that, Zhu Jin would definitely take it to heart, and she would definitely give him an answer no matter when.

Zhu Jin agreed, which meant that Zhu Jin gave him another chance.

Only with opportunities can you have a good start.

When they arrived, the two got off the car and walked into the mountains. This is a mountain near the tourist city. It is not a tourist attraction, but there are no dangerous animals in it, so some people who like mountain climbing will also choose it.

Along the way, Zhu Jin did not take the well-built paths in the mountains, but went deeper into the mountains, talking to Shi Shangbai while searching, thinking that maybe he could find some herbal medicine. Once Shi Shangbai was sure, he would be responsible for digging it out and putting it on his back, while Zhu Jin could just rest on the side or continue searching.

This was a habit she had developed over the past two years. No matter which planet she went to, she would always find a suitable place to look for things that were not available on the Blue Water Planet, and bring back herbs that could be used as medicine for testing. Over the past two years, the gains had been neither too great nor too small.

"It's cool here, take a rest." Shi Shangbai looked at the sun, took off his clothes, spread them out, and asked Zhu Jin to sit down and rest. He poured water for Zhu Jin to wash her hands, and arranged for her to drink water. When he saw that she took off her hat, he immediately handed her a wet handkerchief and said, "Wipe it to cool down."

After Zhu Jin wiped his face, the delicious snacks that he had bought before were brought to him. Zhu Jin ate the snacks while watching Shi Shangbai eating with big mouthfuls of food, with sweat still on his forehead. He then looked at the two bags at his feet and had to admit it.

Compared to Ishigami Kashiwa, the people she hired temporarily were nothing.

This was the first time she had felt so relaxed while picking herbs. She didn't have to carry anything, nor did she have to dig hard. She felt relaxed and was well taken care of.

"Do you want some water?" Shi Shangbai saw Zhu Jin looking at her, thinking that she wanted to drink some water, so he quickly put aside the food in his hand and handed her some water.

Zhu Jin took it and took two sips, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

Climbing up the mountain again, Zhu Jin was full of energy, and he and Shi Shangbai climbed to the top of the mountain in one breath. Standing at a high place, one's mood is always cheerful. Zhu Jin looked at Shi Shangbai standing next to him, who was sweating on his chest and back but looked satisfied, and his mood was high.

However, happiness turned into sadness. Zhu Jin unfortunately sprained his ankle when going down the mountain.

"Hiss..." The result of showing off was that he stepped on a rock and sprained his ankle.

Zhu Jin took a breath, and then she realized that she seemed to have become more delicate.

However, Ishigami Bo was even more nervous. With a stiff face, he took out a medical bag from his bag that was larger than the one Zhu Jin brought. He carefully looked at it and asked Zhu Jin, "Are your bones not injured? Should we apply cold compress first?"

"There are no broken bones. Just apply cold compress." He knew what happened to the wound on his body just by looking at it.

"That's good." Ishigami Bai thought it was fortunate that he had made preparations in advance and brought everything with him.

After applying the cold compress, Shi Shangbai found a few plasters and handed them to Zhu Jin, "Which one is better?"

"This one." Zhu Jin chose one and looked at Ishigami Kashiwa's medical bag. "You even brought this."

"I've brought everything. You must bring everything when you go out in the wild." Shi Shangbai put away his things and looked at Zhu Jin's face. "Does it still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt as much as before." Zhu Jin shook her head. After the cold compress was over and she applied the ointment, her entire ankle was numb and she no longer felt any pain. However, Ishigami Bai firmly opposed her walking again.

"I'll carry you down." Ishigami Bai put two full backpacks in front of him and squatted in front of her.

"No, just hold on to me. Two bags are heavy enough." Zhu Jin refused, "This medicine works very quickly. Just be careful not to use too much force."

Ishigami Bai didn't say much. He turned his head, took her hands, put them on his back and walked away. "Although I'm old, you and the two bags can still be carried." He also pays attention to physical exercise, okay!

"No." Zhu Jin was stunned, leaning on his warm and broad back, listening to his breathing, slowly relaxing his body, and taking the initiative to hook his neck.

Shi Shangbai's mouth corners curled up and his steps became more powerful.

"You've sweated a lot." Zhu Jin lay on his back, and at the tip of his nose he could smell the faint smell of sweat emanating from Shi Shangbai's body. It wasn't smelly, but definitely not fragrant, just the smell of sweat.

“…Does it smell bad?” Ishigami Bai paused, looked down at his sweaty clothes, and spoke in a low voice.

"It doesn't smell good." Zhu Jin's gaze fell on the ear in front of him that was slowly turning red, and he slowly uttered two words.

“…Oh oh…” Ishigami Kashiwa’s pace became noticeably faster.

"Walk slower." Zhu Jin felt the slight bumps, and the problem she had been ignoring was exposed because of the bumps. She couldn't help but stiffen her body. She couldn't help but move away, but she didn't dare to move because it was downhill. "Don't run, it's not...not bad."

“…Oh…” Ishigami Kashiwa paused for a long time before responding. His pace slowed down, but the redness of his ears became more serious.

The aftereffect of Zhu Jin's movement was that he could clearly feel the softness on his back that had been ignored before.

Ishigami Kashiwa tried desperately to tell himself not to think about it, not to feel it, but he couldn't control himself for a moment.

Zhu Jin on his back gritted his teeth, looked at Shi Shangbai's ears, stayed there for a moment, and finally buried his face in Shi Shangbai's back, relaxed his tense body, and gave in.

Shi Shangbai felt Zhu Jin relax, and he breathed a sigh of relief, trying desperately to think of other ways to divert his attention. After a moment, he finally spoke, "Did Shi Wei come with you to look for medicine?"

"Yes." Zhu Jin answered quickly in a muffled voice.

"Has he ever carried you on his back?" Ishigami Bai immediately became a little nervous, and when he was nervous, the question didn't even cross his mind.

"No!" Zhu Jin's angry reply sounded immediately.

Shi Shangbai froze for a moment after realizing it, wishing that time could go back. What a stupid question he asked! Shi Shangbai was afraid that he would say something more devastating, so he simply shut up and walked for a while. Because the peace in his heart was also destroyed by himself, his steps became a little heavier.

Zhu Jin was not heavy, but he had been carrying him for a long time. Coupled with the two large backpacks in front of him that were no lighter than Zhu Jin, it was not easy to walk downhill. Shi Shangbai could not be relaxed all the time, but inexplicably, because of the heavy weight, Shi Shangbai was happier.

The person on his back was Zhu Jin, and he was carrying the weight of Zhu Jin's body.

Zhu Jin could clearly feel Shi Shangbai's body getting hotter and hotter, and could clearly hear his increasingly heavy breathing. She finally raised her head, "Shi Shangbai, put me down. You can even help me walk."

"No need, just stay here." Ishigami Bai's voice was filled with joy.

"You are tired." Zhu Jin's voice also relaxed unconsciously.

"It's okay, I can still hold on, you just stay here." Ishigami Bai's tone was cheerful and unquestionable.

Zhu Jin was silent for a moment, then moved slightly and took out a handkerchief from his pocket that had been of no use before. He wiped the sweat from Shi Shangbai's neck, then reached out to wipe the sweat from his forehead and face.

Zhu Jin heard Ishigami Bai's laughter.

The handkerchief in Zhu Jin's hand became wet and Shi Shangbai's breathing became heavier when they finally reached the foot of the mountain. The taxi they had booked also arrived, and it was not surprising to see their expressions.

"If you don't climb mountains regularly, you'll sprain your ankle easily." This time the driver was a middle-aged woman who was very talkative. She glanced at the two people sitting in the back and said, "Are you here for your honeymoon? You young people just like to act weird and climb mountains."

Ishigami Bai smiled and said nothing, but Zhu Jin blushed, "No... we are not."

What kind of honeymoon is this? "I won't say any more. I won't say any more." The middle-aged woman shut up with an expression that said, "I understand." A newlywed wife is always shy.

Zhu Jin glared at Shi Shangbai who was smiling without saying anything, and couldn't help but glare at him a few more times along the way. But when they got back to the hotel, Shi Shangbai still carried her out of the car and into the hotel.

The next day, Zhu Jin was no longer seriously injured, but she felt a little pain when walking, so she couldn't continue to climb mountains or walk long distances. Thinking that Shi Shangbai was here to play, Zhu Jin and Shi Shangbai finally took a car to a scenic spot very close to the hotel, walking and stopping, talking occasionally, and feeling quite relaxed.

Along the way, Shi Shangbai took many photos for Zhu Jin. Zhu Jin was not unaccustomed to it. When she went out with Shi Wei in the past, Shi Wei would also take some photos for her.

However, Shi Wei does not have the eyes of Shi Shangbai.

Zhu Jin thought about it and realized that it was the first time to be alone with Ishigami Bo for such a long time and there was still no serious matter. She thought it would be awkward, but it was perfect throughout the day.

Time flies very quickly.

Zhu Jin lay in bed at night thinking, it would be better if Shi Shangbai's eyes were not so... Whenever she went to see him, she could see him looking at her!

Zhu Jin turned over and buried her hot face in the pillow without any ambition. She felt that Shi Shangbai had changed a lot in just two days, and she had also become very strange! At dawn, Zhu Jin and Shi Shangbai went out to play again. She couldn't help but observe Shi Shangbai all the way. Shi Shangbai noticed it quickly, but pretended nothing had happened.

The day passed quickly again, and when the sun rose again, they would reunite with Priscilla and their agent and return to Water Blue Star.

It was dark. Sitting on the white sand beach beside the hotel's artificial lake, Zhu Jin felt inexplicably depressed. Before, she always hoped that time would pass faster, but when she really had to leave, she suddenly felt reluctant.

Just as Zhu Jin was thinking, Shi Shangbai, who was lying next to her, suddenly spoke up, "When the semester is over and we have holidays, can you tell me in advance where you are going? I want to go out again. We need at least two holidays this year."

“…Okay.” Zhu Jin paused for a long time and said the word ‘Okay’.

The meaning of this word "good" is self-evident.

Ishigami Bai suddenly sat up, and under the dim light, his eyes shone brightly.

Shi Shangbai thought that this might be what the young people, or Shi Wei, meant by "the qualification to pursue".

According to Shi Wei's theory, liking someone does not mean that you can just pursue him/her and get results if you work hard at pursuing him/her. Instead, you must first obtain the "qualification to pursue". Once you have the qualification, you are halfway to success.

Now that you are qualified, whether you can impress the beautiful woman's heart depends on your own charm.

What Shi Shangbai has always lacked is this qualification. When they first met, Zhu Jin had Chonglou by his side. Although Chonglou was not the one in Zhu Jin's heart at the beginning, it was only a matter of time.

Later, Chonglou and Zhu Jin were a couple that everyone praised and blessed, but he was the ignorant one. Not to mention that he was qualified, what he had to do was to hide his feelings and not become the annoying third party who destroyed other people's feelings. Later, Chonglou broke up with her, and what he had to do was to stay away from Zhu Jin and not become the villain who took advantage of the situation.

He waited for so long and finally got this qualification.
