"You invited my brother and Miss Qin here, and you let them stay in a hotel alone while you squeeze into a tent with us? Is this how you treat your guests, Mr. Lu?"
Gu Liji's words hit the nail on the head. Even if Lu Qi found a tent, the location where they would set it up would be different.
This is a sure win for him, isn't it?
Upon hearing this, Lu Qi's gaze turned cold.
Hearing this, Yun Suni also thought it made sense and advised, "Lu Qi, why don't you stay at the hotel with President Gu and Miss Qin?"
When Gu Liji heard that Yun Su Ni had helped him, he smiled smugly at Lu Qi.
From Cheng Qicai's perspective, it looked rather like a petty person who had achieved their goal.
She surveyed the situation and found that Gu Liji's side was currently in the lead. With the female lead's help, Lu Qi really had no excuse to stay.
He glanced at Gu Rongqi's expression, which seemed unconcerned about the confrontation between Lu Qi and Gu Liji.
So she couldn't understand why Lu Qi would agree to come when he invited him.
Just as Gu Liji was feeling smug, Lu Qi smiled gently and said, "Alright, then I'll go to the hotel with them first."
Lu Qi's easy agreement aroused Gu Liji's suspicion.
Is it really that simple? Based on his understanding of Lu Qi, that's simply impossible.
Cheng Qicai couldn't believe that the male lead would actually admit defeat so easily.
Lu Qi ignored him, seemingly having genuinely given up, and clung to Yun Su Ni, offering to help her set up the tent.
But how could they, who always have everything prepared for them when they go out, not know how to set up a tent? It was Cheng Qicai, who had camping experience, who stepped forward and said she knew how.
They were all smart and quick learners. With Cheng Qicai's instruction, they learned most of the material.
Gu Liji offered to help Yun Suni with her outfit, but the male lead coldly retorted, "Little Gu, you should get your own outfit ready first, so you don't end up having nowhere to sleep tonight."
When Yun Suni saw that Gu Liji was going to help her, she also said, "Yes, Liji, you set up yours first, Lu Qi will help me here."
One to one, even.
As expected of the male lead, he got his revenge so quickly.
Cheng Qicai felt that this trip was really great. She had done all the activities she wanted to do, and she could also get up close and personal with the gossip.
She had set up her own tent, and they didn't seem to need much help. Cheng Qicai strolled to a viewing platform not far away, where she could see the surrounding mountains.
The sun is setting soon; it seems we'll be able to see the sunset soon.
Cheng Qicai was taking pictures with her camera when she heard footsteps stop beside her.
She put down her camera, looked at the person who had arrived, and was slightly taken aback. She asked, "Mr. Gu, what brings you here?"
“It’s too noisy over there,” Gu Rongqi said succinctly.
Indeed, in that love triangle battleground, no one is willing to let anyone off the hook.
The female lead is clueless and can't see the conflict between the two.
"Why would President Gu agree to come with Brother Lu?"
Cheng Qicai couldn't resist her curiosity and asked the question that had been puzzling her all day.
Gu Rongqi chuckled softly, "Because it's fun."
Cheng Qicai was stunned when she heard this answer; it seemed unbelievable to her.
Play?
This character just doesn't seem to fit him at all.
Rather than finding it "fun," Cheng Qicai felt that he was just teasing her for fun.
But Cheng Qi carefully examined his expression. Although he wasn't smiling, he looked relaxed and had a youthful air about him.
However, Gu Rongqi is indeed not very old, only twenty-eight years old, but his status and temperament make it easy to overlook his age.
They're both in their twenties, yet their fates are so different.
Cheng Qicai's eyes welled up with tears.
She couldn't tell from Gu Rongqi whether his answer was perfunctory, but she didn't really believe it either.
She secretly pursed her lips, not caring, because it was none of her business; she was just looking for an answer to her curiosity.
The sun is about to set behind the mountains; there are still a few minutes left.
Cheng Qicai quickly set up the camera.
She quickly called Yun Suni and the others over, "Sister, come quickly, it's sunset."
"Coming!" Yun Suni answered loudly.
They took their positions, Cheng Qicai set the parameters, and jogged to the far side, next to Gu Rongqi.
To allow the camera to capture them all better, Cheng Qicai moved closer to Gu Rongqi.
Raise the all-powerful V sign.
Gu Rongqi felt uncomfortable from the sudden closeness. He glanced at Cheng Qicai and saw that she didn't mean it before relaxing and letting his shoulders slump.
The oblivious Cheng Qicai's attention was always on the camera, and she didn't notice anything unusual around her.
Cheng Qicai took back the camera and asked loudly, "Does anyone else want to take pictures?"
The sun hadn't completely set yet, so we could take a few more photos in this atmosphere.
"Take a picture of me and your sister."
"Let's take a picture together."
Two voices rang out at the same time, and Cheng Qicai looked at her two enemies with a headache.
"Why are you and my girlfriend taking pictures..."
“Su Ni and I are good friends, why can’t we film together? Besides, I was the one who said it first…”
Lu Qi coldly retorted, "With your petty schemes..."
"Su Ni, who do you want to film with?"
Seeing the female lead's dilemma, Cheng Qicai couldn't help but suggest, "Why don't the three of you go together?"
The arguing stopped instantly, and Lu Qi and Gu Liji both turned to look at Cheng Qicai.
She was so frightened that her back went cold and her hair stood on end.
She regretted not controlling her mouth and coming up with such a terrible idea. Now look what happened; she's offended both sides.
