Chapter 113 Gossip is the main business
The weather is very good today, and it is rare that it is not as damp and cold as the winter in Haicheng.
The camping base is by a lake at the foot of the mountain. Haicheng has a subtropical monsoon climate, and the temperature is not too low in winter.
The lake was not frozen, and occasionally you could see a few wild ducks swimming by.
The boys were busy setting up the stove and making a fire to grill meat. Shen Lu saw the right moment and called out to Li Qingqing.
"Qingqing, the scenery here is really nice. Let's go for a walk nearby."
Li Qingqing glanced at her and knew that Shen Lu could no longer hold back.
She just happened to want to talk to her, Shen Lu was too smart, and she probably couldn't hide this matter from her for too long.
"Okay, let's go for a walk by the lake." Li Qingqing glanced at Lu Yu, "Lu Yu, Lulu and I are going out for a walk. I'll leave this place to you."
Lu Yu: "Don't worry, girlfriend, you'll be able to eat meat when you come back."
Li Qingqing: “…”
Isn't it a bit too deliberate to say that?
When she stood up, her eyes naturally met Lu Yan's, and Lu Yan nodded at her imperceptibly.
All these micro-expressions and micro-movements were seen by Shen Lu.
The two of them strolled slowly along the lakeside. From time to time, they could hear the calls of wild ducks from the lake. As the camping base behind them was getting farther and farther away, Li Qingqing began to speak.
“What a nice day today.”
She raised her hand, used the back of her hand to block the glaring sunlight, and sighed sincerely.
Shen Lu chuckled: "It's great, it would be a shame not to chat about gossip in this kind of weather."
Li Qingqing: “…”
"You even skipped work just to gossip. Isn't that a bit too much of a distraction?"
Shen Lu: "Gossip is my main business."
Li Qingqing: “…”
Her understanding of Shen Lu is still not comprehensive enough.
Li Qingqing glanced at the camping base behind her, which was already very far away, and took Shen Lu's hand and walked a little further away.
She didn’t let go of Shen Lu’s hand until she was basically out of sight.
Ask her directly: "Did you guess it?"
Shen Lu: “About the same.”
"...So what do you think?"
"What do you think?" Shen Lu's expression, which had just been a little nonchalant, became serious.
"Qingqing, I've always known that you and Mr. Lu are in love. There's just one thing I don't understand now... Isn't Mr. Lu already engaged to Jiang Xueyao? What does it mean for you to be like this with him now? Have you thought it through?"
Seeing that Li Qingqing was not in a hurry to explain, Shen Lu continued: "I know that Mr. Lu and her are just a business marriage and there is no emotional connection, but..."
Shen Lu thought of the gossip about Qin Yichuan's sister that she heard from Cheng Yang last night.
"But...Jiang Xueyao is someone you can't afford to offend, you know that? She's too ruthless, and has a strong backing. If she finds out about you doing this, you'll be the only one who'll suffer in the end."
Li Qingqing was moved when she heard Shen Lu's caring words from the bottom of his heart.
"Lulu, I know you're worried about me. I know Jiang Xueyao better than you do. Do you remember the time I went to compete in Country F?"
Shen Lu nodded a little dazedly.
"That time, Jiang Xueyao almost sold me out and I had to stay in Country F forever."
"Ah?" Shen Lu widened her eyes. It was the first time she heard Li Qingqing talk about this.
"So I know how cruel and ruthless Jiang Xueyao is, and I also know that she is Lu Yan's fiancée for the time being, but..."
Li Qingqing paused, not knowing how to explain the matter clearly and concisely.
"In short, the marriage is just Lu Yan's delaying tactic. He will not marry Jiang Xueyao in the future."
Shen Lu’s eyes widened, “What did you say?!”
She held Li Qingqing's shoulders and shook her excitedly, "Are you...are you sure this news is true? Isn't it just something Mr. Lu says to win you back?"
Li Qingqing smoothed the hair that had fallen from her eyes. "No, he already jumped into the sea for me. There's no need for him to lie to me, right?"
Chen Lu suddenly remembered that when Li Qingqing was kidnapped by Mu Xingyi, it was Lu Yan who rescued her. Lu Yan had indeed tried his best for her, and she should not question his character.
"But...but why? A delaying tactic? Delaying what?"
Shen Lu really wanted to know the whole story.
"I'm sorry, Lulu, I can't reveal too much. You just need to know that Lu Yan and Jiang Xueyao's marriage is just for the Jiang family to see..."
Li Qingqing was interrupted by Shen Lu before she could finish her words.
"Shh! Wait...it seems like there's someone else here."
Shen Lu placed his index finger between his lips and his eyes began to roll around. Li Qingqing immediately closed her mouth.
The two of them pricked up their ears and listened to the direction of the sound, and found that it seemed to come from the other side of the hill.
Driven by curiosity, Shen Lu took a few steps over there.
Li Qingqing called her, "...Lulu, should we go back?"
I'm unfamiliar with this place, and who knows if there will be any dangerous people.
Shen Lu turned around and pulled her along, "Go and take a look. From the sound of that voice, it's clear that they're doing something bad. There won't be any danger."
Li Qingqing: "...then why are you still watching?"
Shen Lu: “Otherwise, do you think I’m going to chat with people?”
Li Qingqing: “…”
The two men climbed up the hill using their hands and feet. When they were still a certain distance away from their target, they used the thick trunks of large trees to block their bodies.
Shen Lu stretched his head and looked, and found a big G parked at the foot of the hill on the other side of the hill. It was obviously a rich man's car.
A man and a woman could be vaguely seen in the car.
"Fuck." Shen Lu started to get excited.
She stretched her neck to see more clearly, but the distance was a bit far, and the branches blocked her view, so her vision was severely obstructed.
She hurriedly took out her cell phone, turned on the camera mode, and started to enlarge the picture to watch.
Li Qingqing couldn't help but start to worry about Shen Lu's bold style.
She stretched out her hand to block Shen Lu's mobile phone camera and advised her: "This is not good... Lu Lu? You have to respect other people's privacy."
Shen Lu slapped her hand away and said confidently, "They themselves are not ashamed. Do you think they need privacy?"
“…”
Li Qingqing couldn't argue with her, so she could only wait with a red face for Shen Lu to vent her bad taste.
Within a few seconds, Shen Lu suddenly exclaimed.
"Oh shit! It's Jiang Xueyao!"
Li Qingqing: “?”
She immediately leaned over to Shen Lu’s phone.
"What the hell! What the hell! What the hell! Look! Is this Jiang Xueyao?!"
Shen Lu couldn't help but exclaim a series of "Fuck", this sudden shocking news mobilized the adrenaline in her body.
Her hands were shaking with excitement, and the shaking was even worse because she was holding her phone outdoors in the middle of winter.
“Dead hand, don’t shake.” Shen Lu slapped his right hand mercilessly with his left hand.
Li Qingqing wore gloves when she came out. She helped to steady Shen Lu's phone and leaned over the screen to carefully identify it.
I found out that the girl in the G-Class was indeed Jiang Xueyao.
