Chapter 22 Descending the Mountain



The next day, Cheng Qicai was woken up by the alarm clock, and she struggled to turn it off.

My body feels extremely sore.

Don't get me wrong, it's because I haven't exercised for too long.

The hot spring yesterday probably had an effect, because although my body aches, I can still move around.

But she just wanted to stay like this all day, so Cheng Qicai wrapped herself tightly in the blanket.

Thinking about the sunrise viewing schedule this morning, I gritted my teeth and got up.

Since we're already here, since we're already here...

Cheng Qicai kept using this reason to hypnotize herself, so that she wouldn't relax and go back to bed.

After washing my face, I felt refreshed.

She wanted to find other people to go out and watch the sunrise with, but when she arrived at the male and female protagonists' door and knocked, no one answered. She also didn't know where the other people's room numbers were.

She took out her phone and sent a message to Yun Suni first, and then to Gu Liji.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, no one replied.

We agreed to watch the sunrise, but everyone stood us up, and I was the only fool who got up on time.

She sighed and went out alone.

The sky was overcast and there was a thin mist in the mountains, but that did not dampen people's enthusiasm for watching the sunrise.

Cheng Qicai knew there was a popular photo spot on the mountain, but judging from the crowd, she felt she might not be able to squeeze in.

She thought the spot where she set up the tent yesterday was pretty good; although it wasn't perfect, at least she didn't have to squeeze in with other people.

She strolled over there leisurely, and sure enough, there weren't many people.

She looked up at the sky and figured there was still some time before sunrise, so she went to pack up the tent she had set up the night before and return it to the hotel later.

After she packed up the tent, the sun separated the sea of ​​clouds from the sky, and its radiance was about to redden the eastern sky. Just as she reached the fence, she saw two familiar figures.

It's just the male and female leads!

She was about to go up and say hello when she saw the two turn their heads to look at each other and share a kiss.

Okay, I'd better not go up there and become a third wheel, since I'm single.

The scene was beautiful. She raised her camera and took a picture of the two of them before walking away in another direction.

With looks like that, the male and female leads are such a perfect match!

In another direction, Cheng Qicai unexpectedly saw a familiar person again. He was leaning over the railing, looking at the rising sun in the distance.

A gentle breeze blew through his clothes, outlining his lean physique.

Cheng Qicai found it somewhat amusing; his atmosphere was completely different from that of the couple next to him.

She walked to his side and softly greeted him, "Good morning, Mr. Gu!"

The man turned around and politely replied, "Good morning!"

The two watched the sunrise in silence, as time awakened the mountain birds in the forest and dispelled the thin mist that enveloped them.

Cheng Qicai fantasized about how wonderful it would be to live on such a mountain and enjoy such scenery every day if she had tens of millions of dollars!

Everyone dreams of a pastoral life in the mountains and forests.

Gu Rongqi is the type of person who doesn't need much sleep, but he didn't expect Cheng Qicai to get up so early.

The last time he stayed at her house, she slept until nine o'clock and still hadn't woken up, so Gu Rongqi was still a little surprised to see her appear.

A gentle breeze swept by, and Gu Rongqi felt a slight itch on his face, as if something was scratching against it.

He reached out and grabbed a strand of Cheng Qicai's hair, which was carried to his hand by the breeze.

Gu Rongqi looked at the oblivious Cheng Qicai. Although her gaze was fixed straight ahead, it was clear that her attention was not on the scenery.

Her curled eyelashes fluttered in the wind, her rosy lips parted slightly, and her playful, unrestrained hair danced in the breeze. The collar of her dress pulled up to the top made her face appear even smaller.

Gu Rongqi inexplicably thought of the swaying foxtail grass by the roadside, its furry roots.

"Did you go back?"

Gu Rongqi shattered her dream of living a life surrounded by women after winning the lottery.

The sun had fully risen, she pursed her lips and nodded.

She felt something in her mouth, spat it out, and saw that it was her own hair.

She woke up early in the morning and hadn't combed her hair yet. When she touched it, it was indeed a mess from the wind. She clicked her tongue, ruffled her hair a couple of times, and tied it up.

Sooner or later, she'll shave her head.

They returned to the hotel, ordered breakfast, and Gu Rongqi called Gu Liji to wake him up.

Seeing Qin Biyu come down with Gu Liji, Cheng Qicai raised an eyebrow.

Qin Biyu's complexion was not very good. Compared to her rosy and radiant appearance yesterday, she looked like she had spent the whole night plowing ten acres of land.

With trembling steps, Cheng Qicai was afraid that she would collapse before she even reached the dining table.

This is way too far-fetched!

A pang of sympathy welled up in Cheng Qicai's heart. She ran over to help her up, but the girl yelled at her, "Don't touch me!"

Okay, okay! I hope you fall and die!

She was very annoyed. Her good intentions had been met with a spoiled attitude and she was scolded. She snorted inwardly and returned to her seat.

Finally, Qin Biyu arrived at her seat, feeling as if she were being tortured as she sat down.

The male and female protagonists arrived late, halfway through the meal.

Seeing Lu Qi enter, Qin Biyu's eyes lit up immediately, and she sweetly called out, "Lu Qi, I've ordered your meal for you."

"Thank you, but I want to eat steamed buns today." Lu Qi glanced at the sandwiches on the table and refused in a slightly cold tone.

Serves you right! Cheng Qicai felt extremely relieved after Lu Qi vented her anger.

"Su Ni, what would you like to eat? I'll get it for you."

Cheng Qicai looked at both sides and felt that Qin Biyu and Gu Liji were a perfect match.

The other couple's lips are swollen from kissing, and they can still turn a blind eye, stealing each other's partners right in front of the real ones.
