Chapter 43
After lunch, Lin Qingyi did not choose to go back, but chose to sit outside by himself.
It was a rare cloudy day today, with large dark clouds covering the sky, so Lin Qingyi did not go far. He just sat on a beach chair nearby and watched the waves rushing towards the shore.
Lin Qingyi’s mind was filled with the scene of the morning.
She now couldn't understand why Ning Cong'an told her these things.
She didn't know what she was thinking.
A rare period of confusion.
Lin Qingyi couldn't talk to Xiao Ran about this matter, so she chose to stay outside and stare blankly after everyone returned to their rooms.
In fact, Lin Qingyi rarely does these seemingly meaningless and time-wasting things.
Nothing like this had ever happened before, and she was busy with her studies, so most of the time she filled the time she needed to relax with busyness.
And now, she really has nothing to do.
She stared at the sea with lifeless eyes until the first drop of rain dripped onto her eyelashes, and then Lin Qingyi came to her senses.
Lin Qingyi saw countless ripples on the sea.
The rain is coming.
She hurried back to the villa. The camera was still filming. Except for the photographers, everyone was resting in the room.
She glanced at the time. It was still early. Everyone usually took a lunch break until two in the afternoon before starting their afternoon tasks.
Lin Qingyi pushed the door open as quietly as possible. She stuck her head in and found Ning Cong'an was already asleep.
Seeing that the other person fell asleep, Lin Qingyi finally felt relieved.
Ever since the atmosphere between them changed, she didn't know how to face Ning Cong'an.
Even when changing into pajamas, Lin Qingyi felt a little at a loss. Yesterday, she changed in the bathroom after taking a shower and it was fine. But now she was asked to change by the bed, and even though Ning Cong'an was asleep, she still felt a little uncomfortable.
After thinking for a long time while holding her pajamas, she tiptoed into the bathroom and closed the door quietly.
Lin Qingyi originally thought that she would have a hard time falling asleep like last night, but maybe she was too sleepy, she fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed.
She didn't even hear Mu Yewu's call to assemble.
It was Ning Cong'an who woke her up.
Lin Qingyi tried hard to open his eyelids, but he was still in a daze, and everything in front of him was blurry and he couldn't see anything clearly.
It was in this situation that he met Ning Cong'an's face.
The other person's appearance was so shocking that Lin Qing jumped up immediately after seeing it clearly.
Ning Cong'an watched helplessly as the person who was so close to her in the last second was already ten meters away from her in the next second.
Lin Qingyi didn't even have time to rub his eyes before he hurriedly went into the bathroom with the clothes he wanted to change, stepping on his slippers.
By the time she was ready and stepped out of the bathroom, the expression on her face had returned to normal.
There are no games in the afternoon.
There were a bunch of ingredients on the table, and Mu Yewu said, "Let's work together to make dinner this time."
When we heard about the cooperation, we felt relieved. If we didn’t do well, we just had to do less.
Some people are very self-aware, like Yan Feiyang. She chooses to just walk around and help out with small things, and never does anything important related to cooking.
As for Tan Xiaoran, he has absolutely no self-awareness.
When she thought about what she had cooked and how much Lin Qingyi ate that day, she felt that her cooking skills must have improved.
When everyone saw that she was really going to do it, they were scared out of their wits, but they didn't dare to say it directly.
As the team leader, Ziyin was given the difficult task of stopping Tan Xiaoran from cooking.
Five pairs of eyes were staring at him. Ziyin was sweating profusely and hesitantly said, "Xiao Ran, um... go... go and help me cut some vegetables. I'm a little too busy now."
Tan Xiaoran didn't suspect anything. After all, it wasn't a big dish she was going to make, so it could be done quickly. So, with everyone asking for help one after another, all the dishes were ready.
Tan Xiaoran only successfully completed the task of serving the food.
But Tan Xiaoran was not sad at all.
She worked all afternoon, and even if she didn't finish the dish, she still had some credit for it.
Tan Xiaoran took photos excitedly and boasted in the family group that he made all of them himself.
In the end, all he got was a cold response from Tan's mother.
Do you want to poison someone?
Tan Xiaoran pouted and put away her phone in dissatisfaction, waiting for the group variety show to be released in seven days. By then, the group variety show will prove it for her.
After dinner, the rain stopped.
Listening to the sound of the windows being blown by the wind, the seven people still walked out of the villa in a group.
After the rain, even the air is fresh.
There is no smell of soil or grass at the beach, only the smell of salty sea water, but everyone still enjoys breathing the fresh air.
The seven people walked together, one in front and one behind. Lin Qingyi and Ning Cong'an walked at the end of the team without saying a word.
From time to time, voices and laughter could be heard from the front, but Lin Qingyi felt that he was very far away from them.
But she still smiled.
In this warm moment, Lin Qingyi doesn't need to join in. She will feel happy just by watching from afar.
Ning Cong'an walked on her left, and the sea breeze carried her scent lightly and engulfed Lin Qingyi.
Peace of mind.
She felt a peace of mind she had never felt before.
At this time, Lin Qingyi probably understood the saying that sometimes happiness only takes a moment.
She felt that she was very happy at this moment.
When walking back to the villa, Lin Qingyi was still a little reluctant to leave.
Ning Cong'an suddenly said, "Do you want to walk around again?"
Lin Qingyi was worried that it would rain later, but at this time, Ning Cong'an added another sentence.
"It won't rain again tonight. I checked the weather forecast."
Since Ning Cong'an said so, Lin Qingyi had no reason to refuse.
The two of them walked along the coastline again.
When he reached the farthest place, Ning Cong'an suddenly stopped.
Lin Qingyi thought she wanted to feel the sea breeze again, so he took a step forward and stood side by side with her, facing the sea.
Neither of them spoke for a moment.
The first to break the silence was Lin Qingyi.
She looked at the empty beach and suddenly remembered the day Ning Cong'an approached her.
He also said that leaves fell on her head.
She looked over and saw no trace of leaves.
"Ning Cong'an, you said there were leaves on my head the other day, but where are the trees here?"
It was rare for Lin Qingyi to call Ning Cong'an by his full name.
But Ning Cong'an beside him just sighed softly and asked, "Can you really not see it or are you pretending not to see it?"
The next second, Ning Cong'an's face appeared in front of her again.
This time, his face was filled with helplessness.
"I like you, can't you see?"
The sea breeze blew between the two of them, lifting their hair and then entwining it.
Lin Qingyi did not give an answer.
Ning Cong'an didn't seem to want her to answer.
When Ning Cong'an woke up the next day, he was back to his old self, and the two of them greeted each other as usual.
Lin Qingyi finally understood at this time that escape was shameful, but useful.
She wasn't ready to face this yet.
Fortunately, Ning Cong'an seemed to have just said it and didn't ask her to do anything.
As Lin Qingyi let out a breath, he once again felt grateful for Ning Cong'an's thoughtfulness in his heart.
Mu Yewu woke them up very early today, and everyone was still a little confused.
"Today I found a nearby attraction. Let's go there and have fun for a day."
When talking about going out to play, everyone's eyes, which were sleepy one second, brightened up the next.
"Pack up whatever you want to take with you, and we'll be ready to go!"
Lin Qingyi returned to the room.
She had nothing she wanted to take with her.
I opened the suitcase and rummaged through it for a long time, but found nothing except a few clothes and daily necessities.
Lin Qingyi only has one mobile phone.
Originally she didn't even want to carry a bag, but she felt very empty and was worried that it would be inconvenient to go out, so she carried it anyway.
To comfort herself that the backpack was useful, she stuffed a large bag of tissues, wet wipes, and a few sanitary napkins into it.
Ning Cong'an brought a small thing with him.
Before Lin Qingyi could see clearly what she brought, Ning Cong'an had already stuffed it into her bag.
Receiving Lin Qingyi's curious gaze, Ning Cong'an chose not to speak directly, but kept it a secret: "You'll know when the time comes."
Lin Qingyi snorted, indicating that he didn't really want to see it.
When she stepped out of the door, she was shocked to realize that when did she become able to throw a little tantrum at Ning Cong'an without any worries?
Mu Yewu had already arranged a vehicle, a small business car, just big enough for them to sit.
When we got on the bus, we were a little excited at first, but we were so sleepy that we couldn't hold on any longer and started taking out our eye masks to sleep.
Lin Qingyi then regretted that she should have thought of it, she didn't wear a blindfold.
She sat on the side where the sun was directly shining. The sun was so bright that she couldn't fall asleep.
At this time, Ning Cong'an next to her suddenly took something out and gave it to her.
It is a disposable steam eye mask.
Lin Qingyi was a little surprised. She didn't expect the other party to carry this with him, but she didn't take it directly. Instead, she asked, "Give it to me, what will you do?"
Seeing Ning Cong'an take out another one from her bag, Lin Qingyi accepted it with peace of mind.
The steam eye mask was very comfortable and lasted exactly thirty minutes, allowing her to take a nap.
When I opened my eyes again, the world outside was completely different.
The sea is no longer visible here, replaced by layers of mountains.
It is the off-season for tourism now, so there are basically no people around.
But to be on the safe side, Mu Yewu still asked them to wear masks.
As soon as you land, the feeling is completely different from the seaside.
The smell of trees, soil, and grass can still be smelled even with a mask on.
Mu Yewu found a tour guide to take everyone to play and explain.
The seven people had been exercising for more than a week and climbed the mountain for half a day without getting out of breath. By then, Mu Yewu was the first to get tired.
Since she wouldn't be in the picture anyway, she let them go first and she followed slowly from behind.
Several people followed the tour guide and walked to a wooden bridge.
Below is a trickle of water.
The water was so clear that you could see the bottom, which Lin Qingyi rarely saw, so he stood by the bridge and took a picture of the water with his mobile phone.
Ning Cong'an, who was behind her, suddenly called her name in a low voice.
The photographer's camera followed the tour guide and he had already walked to the front, with the two people standing in the blind spot of the camera.
As soon as Lin Qing turned around, he heard the sound of Ning Cong'an pressing the shutter button.
Only then did she realize that what Ning Cong'an was carrying was actually a Polaroid camera.
