Chapter 67 Chen Zhao is dead
Near noon, the eight people finally climbed to the top of the mountain.
Unfortunately, the snow on the top of the mountain has almost melted.
Li Du found a relatively flat place where he could overlook the entire scenery and put down his backpack.
He said to Xu Dong and Peng Shuai, "Let's set up camp here. You two set up the tents, and I'll go get some firewood."
"Boss, I'll go with you." Gao Yujie put down her backpack and followed Li Du to collect firewood.
Everyone was busy packing up the things they had brought. Su Yumian took out the tent from his backpack and prepared to set it up. Fu Quezhou came over and said, "It's hard to set it up alone. Let's go together."
Zhou Xubai sat aside, sorting his things alone, but his eyes kept looking towards Su Yumian, which was irritating no matter how he looked at her.
After Qin Lu finished counting her belongings, she discovered something was missing. "Gao Yujie is such a loser! She took everything but the tent!"
Then he turned to look at Xu Dong and asked, "How many tents did you bring?"
Their tent had already been set up. Xu Dong gestured for them to look. "As you can see, this is the one."
"Where is Teacher Zhou?" Qin Lu looked at Zhou Xubai again and asked.
"one."
Qin Lu looked at Fu Quezhou and the others again, but she opened her mouth but couldn't ask anything. She knew that they must have only brought one person.
At this time, Gao Yujie and Li Du came back, followed by another person.
As soon as Qin Lu saw her, she started scolding her, "You fool! You remembered to bring food and supplies, but you forgot to bring a tent. Where are we going to sleep?"
Gao Yujie was stunned. She dropped the firewood in her arms and rushed to her backpack. "What? Didn't I bring the tent?"
Several people looked over and saw a handsome man standing next to Li Du. Xu Dong asked, "President, who is this handsome man?"
The handsome guy stepped out from behind Li Du, smiling and waving at everyone. "Hi~ Hello everyone, my name is Lin Xu."
Zhou Xubai paused while setting up the tent, and turned his head suddenly to see that Lin Xu, who was supposed to be recuperating at his home, was actually here.
He was still wearing the same pink coat as when we first met, the only difference was that he was wearing a turtleneck sweater underneath, covering the collar around his neck.
"I came here with my friend, but he left me and went away. Luckily, I met President Li Du and Sister Yu Jie, so I didn't get lost."
When Lin Xu said this, he deliberately glanced at Zhou Xubai, a smirk spreading across the corners of his mouth.
Everyone believed his words without a doubt, except Fu Quezhou who noticed something unusual.
He looked at Lin Xu and felt inexplicably familiar. Moreover, this Lin Xu seemed to know Zhou Xubai.
Hearing Lin Xu's words, Li Du said to Lin Xu while piling up firewood, "You're welcome. Meeting is fate. Since you're alone, why don't you join us? We're here to have fun too."
"Then I'll be happy to help you."
As Lin Xu spoke, she walked over to Zhou Xubai, smiled sweetly at him and said, "Handsome guy, do you need any help?"
Zhou Xubai glared at Lin Xu, then looked away and said coldly, "No need!"
However, Lin Xu simply ignored Zhou Xubai's indifference and started to set up the tent on his own.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Xubai dropped a corner of the tent and asked in a low voice with a cold face, "Are you following me?"
Lin Xu smiled crookedly and shook his index finger: "Hmm~ No, didn't I just say I came here with friends?"
"Oh, friend?"
Zhou Xubai sneered, I don’t believe you at all.
His eyes fell on Lin Xu's ankle and he said coldly, "Since your foot is healed, leave my house tomorrow."
Lin Xu was startled, turned around and saw Gao Yujie preparing to barbecue. He automatically ignored Zhou Xubai's words and walked towards Gao Yujie, "Sister Yujie, let me help you~"
After everything was cleaned up, everyone sat around the fire. Gao Yujie and Peng Shuai were responsible for barbecuing, while the others chatted and drank.
At this time, Gao Yujie had just grilled a chicken wing and handed it to Zhou Xubai, indicating that he should give it to Su Yumian.
Zhou Xubai took it and handed it to Su Yumian, "Yumian, this is cooked, eat it while it's hot."
Su Yumian didn't take it immediately, but subconsciously glanced at Fu Quezhou. Seeing that he didn't seem to be surprised, she took it and said, "Thank you."
Lin Xu's eyes fell on the hands of Zhou Xubai and Su Yumian that were touching, and he suddenly felt that the roasted lamb in his hands was no longer fragrant.
"I'm going to smoke a cigarette." Lin Xu stood up and walked towards the woods ahead.
Seeing this, Zhou Xubai also stood up and said, "I'll go get some more firewood."
The two of them entered the forest one after the other. Zhou Xubai caught up with Lin Xu, grabbed the hood of his pink jacket, and said in a bad tone, "Lin Xu, what on earth do you want to do?"
"What do you want to do?"
Lin Xu took out a lighter and lit the cigarette. The flame reflected the gloom in his eyes that did not belong to this face.
Zhou Xubai was a little angry, and his voice unconsciously became a little louder. He growled at Lin Xu, "What do you want to do by following me here?!"
Lin Xu was a little annoyed by Zhou Xubai's yelling. He grabbed Zhou Xubai by the collar, pointed the cigarette in Su Yumian's direction, and demanded, "Then what do you want to do when I ask you? Do you feel so superior being the third person in the group?!"
Zhou Xubai was stunned, staring at Lin Xu and asked, "What do you mean?"
Lin Xu was enraged. He grabbed Zhou Xubai's collar and pressed his fist against his chin, growling.
"Damn it! Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that Su Yumian and Fu Quezhou are a couple. You left me behind to be the third one, and you still ask me what I mean?"
Zhou Xubai was completely confused by Lin Xu's words. What did he mean by abandoning him?
Is that the kind of relationship he has with him?
"Who are you?" Zhou Xubai frowned and stared at Lin Xu.
Lin Xu chuckled, released Zhou Xubai's collar, patted his cheek, and leaned close to him, saying, "It's only been a few years since we last met, and you've completely forgotten me?"
Hearing this, Zhou Xubai looked at Lin Xu carefully. In his world, Lin Xu's facial features gradually overlapped with the thin and shy figure with chestnut hair in his memory, who covered her face with a textbook when she looked at him.
"Are you... Chen Zhao?" Zhou Xubai asked tentatively.
Lin Xu sneered, stepped back and distanced himself from Zhou Xubai, "Ha! So you still remember..."
He paused, glanced back at where Su Yumian was, and said sarcastically, "After not seeing you for a few years, I thought you had already caught up with him, but in the end you are still running after him like a loser."
Hearing Lin Xu's words, Zhou Xubai took two steps back in shock, his eyes fixed on Lin Xu's face.
Seventeen-year-old Chen Zhao was so shy and timid, and he was completely different from the man in front of him who was grabbing his collar and sneering at him.
Now, the sharp brows and sarcastic corners of the mouth on this face completely tore apart his impression of that person.
He didn't expect that when they met again, Chen Zhao would have changed so much. Not only his appearance had changed, but even his name had changed.
By chance, a breeze blew by, lifting a few yellow leaves on the ground. Zhou Xubai stared at Lin Xu in a daze and fell into silence.
After a few seconds, he grabbed Lin Xu's arm and asked, "Chen Zhao, where have you been all these years? And why did you transfer schools back then? No wonder I couldn't find you. How could I have found you if you changed your name?"
"Don't you know why I transferred schools?" Lin Xu asked him with a smile.
Zhou Xubai was stunned. Should he know?
Seeing his expression that said "Do I need to know this?", Lin Xu sneered.
If it weren't for Zhou Xubai, he wouldn't have been pointed at and called a damn homosexual by the whole school.
His parents would not have divorced because of this, he would not have followed his mother to remarry, and he would not have suffered all this.
He stared deeply at Zhou Xubai and exhaled a puff of smoke. "Forget it, Chen Zhao is dead. Remember, I am Lin Xu."
