Looking up is the end
Chen Xing suddenly became shy when she heard Wen Yu's words. Her heart had finally gotten a rest and slowed down a little, but why did Wen Yu's random words always make her heart beat faster?
It felt like a little deer was running around in my heart, tingling and numb, very comfortable, filling up all the unhappiness.
Chen Xing felt that something was increasingly wrong with him. These days, his interactions with Wen Yu seemed to have lost their naturalness and openness. Why did he want to spend more time with him?
"Chen Xing, look up." Wen Yu suddenly shouted.
"Ah?" Chen Xing didn't react for a moment. He was stunned for a moment and then raised his head.
Wen Yu said: "See? It's the top of the mountain. We are almost there."
The lights on the top of the mountain appeared in front of Chen Xing. Although the shadows of those iconic buildings were still blurry, the gorgeous lights could not deceive.
Chen Xing said with bright eyes: "I see, Wen Yu, we are finally almost at the top of the mountain. I am suddenly so excited."
Chen Xing looked at the mountain top that was looming in front of him, unable to hide his joy. He saw the finish line in front of him, and every moment after that seemed like a countdown, a countdown to victory.
Chen Xing had never been so excited to reach his destination. It turned out that countdown was not just a bad word, nor was it the end of everything. It could also be the beginning of happiness.
Although Wen Yu couldn't see Chen Xing on his back, he could imagine that she must be smiling.
Wen Yu did not put Chen Xing down during the last stretch of the journey. It was obvious that when he saw the end, the pace should have gotten easier, but why did his steps become heavier and heavier, and his heart was filled with reluctance?
If possible, he really didn't want to let her go like this, didn't want to reach the end so quickly, didn't want it to end.
Why can't this road be longer?
From the moment Chen Xing saw the brilliant lights on the top of the mountain, her eyes were mesmerized by the golden color, and she was looking forward to the destination she had been longing for.
Chen Xing thought that no one could understand what she was feeling at the moment. It was the joy of seeing the sunshine after the clouds parted, the excitement of seeing the rainbow after the storm, and the clarity of knowing one's true self after waking up from a dream.
"Wen Yu, thank you, I really did it." Chen Xing suddenly sighed.
Chen Xing's vision had never been so clear before. It was like dew that had been baptized, clean and pure. All he could see were the most holy things without any impurities.
Wen Yu smiled, and when he looked up again, the palace and temple were getting closer and closer. He couldn't help but sigh, "We've finally reached the end."
They took this last step together, carrying the weight of their inseparable relationship.
Finally they reached flat ground. Before Wen Yu could put Chen Xing down, he was seen by Shi Nannan and Shen Xuyang.
Shi Nannan dragged Shen Xuyang over and said, "Xingxing, Wen Yu, if you two don't show up, we will go down the mountain to look for you."
Shi Nannan and Shen Xuyang had been waiting for them at the only intersection on the mountain. When she didn't see the two men, Shi Nannan worriedly imagined countless versions of Chen Xing and Wen Yu getting into danger, enough to write a supernatural novel.
Shen Xuyang's ears were almost callused, and he had to listen even though he didn't want to. Fortunately, they finally came up, and Shen Xuyang's ordeal ended.
Because it was dark and she couldn't see clearly, Shi Nannan only saw that Wen Yu was carrying Chen Xing on his back when she got closer.
Shi Nannan said with a wicked smile: "Xingxing, you...why were you also carried up here? You and him..."
Shi Nannan had only said half of her words when Chen Xing felt something was wrong and got off Wen Yu's back. This frightened Wen Yu, who was afraid that Chen Xing would fall. Before he could even reach Chen Xing with his outstretched hand, Chen Xing teleported to Shi Nannan and covered her mouth.
Chen Xing whispered in Shi Nannan's ear: "Nannan, don't say anything you shouldn't."
Shi Nannan rolled her confused eyes twice and nodded, and only then did Chen Xing let go of her mouth.
As soon as Shi Nannan was free, she wanted to say, "What do you think I want to say? I just didn't expect you were carried up here too. Xingxing, are you feeling unwell? Please don't scare me."
Shi Nannan thought that Chen Xing and Wen Yu had been walking since daytime, before the sun rose over the mountain, and walked until dark, so they couldn't be too tired.
Shi Nannan and Shen Xuyang only walked for seven hours, stopping and starting. It took them nearly thirteen or fourteen hours, so they shouldn't be more tired than her.
Chen Xing caught something from Shi Nannan's words and raised his eyebrows. "Also? You and Shen Xuyang, wouldn't you also..."
This time, Chen Xing was interrupted by Shi Nannan before he could finish his words. Shi Nannan smiled awkwardly, looked at Wen Yu calmly, confirmed that Wen Yu didn't hear it, and then glared at Shen Xuyang, warning him to talk less.
Before Shen Xuyang could figure out what was going on with Shi Nannan and Chen Xing, he was glared at for no apparent reason. He was truly innocent.
Shi Nannan took Chen Xing aside and made sure that they could not hear any talking before letting Chen Xing go.
Chen Xing looked at Shi Nannan's vigilant expression and thought that something must have happened between her and Shen Xuyang.
Chen Xing suddenly started gossiping and said, "Nannan, tell me! What happened between you and Shen Xuyang? Tell me the truth and keep it strictly confidential."
Shi Nannan didn't expect that Chen Xing was curious about her. Every time she took the initiative to talk, Chen Xing didn't listen seriously. Why did he want to dig into her affairs now? Could it be that there was something wrong with her just like her?
Shi Nannan propped herself up with her arms and said without any threat, "Xingxing, don't try to bluff me. I can see that you are weird, aren't you?"
Chen Xing looked at Shi Nannan's sharp eyes. She couldn't lose in momentum either, so she also propped up her arms and showed a sharp look.
Chen Xing asked, "What did you see?"
Shi Nannan knew Chen Xing too well. Chen Xing couldn't pretend, especially her eyes that never lied. Shi Nannan could tell at a glance.
Shi Nannan raised the corner of her mouth as if she had grasped the situation and said, "Xingxing, are you feeling guilty?"
Chen Xing felt as if he had been seen through, but he refused to admit it. "Nannan, it was Shen Xuyang who carried you up here, right? When you two set out, you were fighting like a life-and-death struggle. Why did something go wrong when you reached the top of the mountain?"
Although Chen Xing cannot act as well as Shi Nannan, she is smarter than Shi Nannan. After all, Shi Nannan looks like a very simple person and one can guess what she is like without any trial, besides, she is very talkative.
Shi Nannan thought that Chen Xing had predicted all of this, but she still refused to give up and said, "No, it's impossible. How could I, Shi Nannan, need someone to carry me? Even if there was someone, it definitely wouldn't be Shen Xuyang."
"Hey! What are you two dawdling about? Are you going to the temple or not?" Shi Nannan had just finished speaking when Shen Xuyang's voice rang out behind her, and she felt unwell.
Shi Nannan didn't dare to look back, and didn't dare to think about whether Shen Xuyang heard it. He shouldn't be able to hear it at this distance, but his voice seemed to be very close to her, so she could hear it. But what if he didn't hear it clearly?
In just a few short seconds, Shi Nannan's brain was overloaded and she, who never used to think, got a headache.
