Chapter 50 Whose vest?
Yue Zifeng finally relaxed after a night of hard work: "Your brother was so worried. We looked for you two all night. It rained so hard last night. We were so worried that something might happen to you in this deep forest."
The twins didn't expect the sudden heavy rain, and everyone was stranded in the camp. Shen Yu was the first to discover that Shuang Xu was missing.
Hearing that she stayed at the observation deck to set up the venue, Shen Yu went to pick her up in person with an umbrella, but didn't find her.
Soon after, they discovered that He Tingzhou was also missing.
Then, things got out of hand.
Everyone stayed up all night, searching all over the mountain in the heavy rain. The distance from the campsite to the observation deck was not too far, but they searched for the entire night and almost climbed the entire mountain.
"I've passed by this cave at least three times. Damn it, I should have come in and taken a look earlier!" Yue Zifeng beat his chest and stamped his feet.
Shuang Xu asked curiously: "I hung my hat outside, didn't you see it?"
"I didn't see it. Maybe it was blown away by the wind." Yue Zifeng said, "Aren't you at the observation deck? Why didn't you run home when it rained? Why did you hide here?"
Shuangxu opened her mouth to answer, but the twins behind the crowd spoke first: "Oh, it's all my fault. When I was installing the colored lights, I accidentally bumped into Shuangxu's bag and it fell down. I said it was so dark and the backpack didn't matter, and it would be the same if we looked for it during the day, but she insisted on coming down to look for it."
"Yes. We originally wanted to look for her together, but she walked too fast and soon we got separated. We thought it wasn't far, so we went back to meet you."
"If we had known earlier, we should have stayed with her no matter what."
The two of them knew how to seize the initiative and acted sincerely, making it seem like Shuang Xu was being stubborn and refusing to listen. Even if she said now that they kicked the bag down on purpose, it would seem unreasonable.
Shuang Xu watched them quietly as they finished the performance in unison.
Without her saying anything, Yue Zifeng couldn't help but swear: "You dropped her bag? She had the ring in it! Why are you waiting to look for it in the daytime? When the daylilies are cold, will you use you two to put on Manman's fingers when you propose to her?"
The twins' expressions changed instantly. When Lu Manman heard this, she also glanced at them.
The two of them panicked: "We don't know..."
Yue Zifeng was already unhappy because the two of them only cared about going back yesterday and left his sister alone outside. Now that he knew they almost lost the ring, he was even more annoyed.
"It's really true that he can't do anything good, but he is more likely to cause trouble than to do anything bad!"
After all, they were friends brought by Lu Manman, and scolding them would be an insult to Lu Manman. Zuo Zhong hurriedly stepped in to smooth things over: "They didn't do it on purpose. Besides, it rained so hard yesterday that the proposal couldn't have gone through in the first place. Who told you to read the weather forecast inaccurately?"
Yue Zifeng choked.
Shen Yu squatted down in front of Shuang Xu. He had been running around in the rain all night and there was obvious fatigue between his brows.
"Are you hurt?"
Lu Manman followed him and searched for the whole night, also with a worried look on her face: "Are you okay? I was almost scared to death."
Shuang Xu shook his head: "I'm fine, but Brother Tingzhou has a fever."
Yue Zifeng reached out to touch He Tingzhou's forehead, but He Tingzhou waved his hand away: "Have you washed your hands?"
"Shit, I almost got burned. Let's go back to the base and call a doctor!"
Shen Yu held Shuang Xu's hand and stood up: "Let's go back first."
The romantic proposal plan was a complete failure, and the prince, who was extremely wealthy, fell ill.
Zuo Zhong and a few other young and strong men went back to the camp to collect things, while the others took Shuang Xu and He Tingzhou and returned to the mid-mountain base first.
The mood on the way down the mountain was no longer as happy and relaxed as the one on the way up. Everyone was exhausted after a night of sleep, so we returned to the camp to rest.
Shuang Xu went to take a shower first, and when he changed his dirty clothes, he remembered his vest.
I woke up in such a hurry that I forgot about it. I probably lost it in the cave.
The doctor who was summoned on short notice had already arrived and put He Tingzhou on an IV. He stayed in bed to rest, and everyone outside was busy, some boiling water, some cooking, and everyone wanted to take care of him without any hesitation.
Someone brought a bowl of homemade noodles to him, but He Tingzhou had no appetite and put it on the table without even looking at it.
Yue Zifeng came in, and seeing that he didn't eat, he sat down and started eating, "I've been looking for you all night, I'm starving."
"When I went back yesterday, you were just wandering around outside the camp. How did you end up at the observation deck?"
The sick He Tingzhou was lazier than usual, his eyes were sleepy: "It's raining, I'm lost."
"You can't just walk in the opposite direction if you're lost. What kind of sense of direction do you have?"
As he was speaking, he looked up and saw a white vest hanging on the clothes rack.
"Ahem!" Yue Zi almost choked out the noodles in his mouth. He pointed at the vest and asked, "Whose little vest is this?"
He Tingzhou lifted his eyelids and took a look, then answered as if it was a matter of course and confidently: "Mine."
"Bullshit! How can you wear something this small?"
"It's shrinking."
"Do you think I'm stupid? This style is obviously women's clothing." Yue Zifeng said, "This stuff is worn next to the skin. Where did you get it? In just two days, you were missing for a whole night. When did you hook up with the women in our team? Who is it?"
He Tingzhou thought he was annoying and didn't bother to talk to him: "If you have nothing to do, go up the mountain to play with the bamboo leaf green snake."
Yue Zifeng was eating a bowl of noodles and was about to leave with the bowl in his hand when He Tingzhou spoke again.
He lay on the bed, his eyes lazily scanning the DV on the table, and casually said: "It rained yesterday, can you check if it's broken?"
When Shuang Xu came out of the shower, Zuo Zhong and his men had already returned to the base.
Shen Yu sat on the chair with his legs crossed and called her softly, "Come and have something to eat."
The gas stove on the table was cooking a Korean hot pot with bubbles rising from the low fire. Lu Manman came over with some washed fruit and said, "Come here, Xiaojiu. I made this especially for you."
Shuang Xu said "thank you" to her, and Lu Manman sat next to her, holding her chin and asked Shen Yu with a smile: "Am I very virtuous?"
At this moment, Yue Zifeng came out from the opposite room with a strange look on his face, tilted his head and signaled to Shen Yu, who stood up and walked over.
The two of them stood together, and Yue Zifeng was showing him what was in the DV.
Lu Manman muttered: "What are they doing?"
Shuang Xu looked up while eating shrimps, and Shen Yu turned his head at that moment.
His eyes were as calm as water, like the stream in the cave, with a chill that penetrates the bones.
That glance was not at her, but at Lu Manman.
"What the hell is this?" Yue Zifeng cursed, "Should I call someone over now?"
"No hurry." Shen Yu's expression made it impossible to tell what his emotions were. He said calmly, "Let Xiaojiu finish eating."
