The incident involving Xiao Yanzi and Yongqi, Yongxuan and Ertai's late-night conversation, Chen Nian and Qing'er's casual chat, and Chen Nian's changing state of mind, none of these could stop the group from moving forward.
The group continued onward.
The group arrived at the riverbank, intending to take a ferry to their next destination.
The next day, Qing'er looked at Ertai with deep sympathy in her eyes. Ertai's pursuit of her was a long and arduous journey, and her Niannian seemed to lack the ability to fall in love.
She guided Niannian for a long time yesterday, almost revealing the answer outright, but Niannian still didn't notice at all.
She was completely unaware of Ertai's feelings, and was even enthusiastically discussing with herself what kind of person Ertai's future wife should be, and what kind of gift she should give Ertai for his wedding.
After all, they've known each other for so long, they certainly couldn't be stingy with their gifts.
Ertai was also quite bewildered when he received Qing'er's sympathetic gaze.
How come he seemed to feel such deep sympathy after just one night apart?
Even from a great distance, Yongxuan, standing next to Ertai, could feel Qing'er's deep sympathy for the person beside her, and looked through her questioning gaze.
Receiving Yongxuan's questioning gaze, Qing'er shook her head slightly, looked up at Chen Nian beside her, and then looked up at Ertai opposite her, indicating that she would explain to him later.
Yongxuan, who perfectly understood Qing'er's meaning, nodded and smiled slightly. His handsome face softened instantly, and his already captivating face became even more alluring with the smile.
Looking at the person across from her laughing so "ostentatiously," Qing'er felt a lump in her throat. She silently thought to herself, "Why does he have to laugh so beautifully? It attracts a lot of attention, you know?"
Yongxuan, who only gave a slight upturn to the corner of his mouth: ...
He said he felt wronged.
...
"Boat owner, we need to charter your boat to cross the river. We have carts and horses, but it will probably take several round trips. How much is your boat fare? Can we set off immediately?"
When the group arrived at the boat, Erkang took the lead and spoke loudly to the boatman standing on the riverbank.
Several girls, including Ziwei, got off the carriage with the help of their respective protectors.
Since Erkang learned that Ziwei was behind his abnormal behavior, he has rarely had any contact with her.
As for how to reduce contact, as a contestant who can make even a sullen person faint, her sharp tongue is no joke.
The two of them argued every few days, and over time, their feelings for each other faded.
As for who thinks they've drifted apart, or that their relationship is just a conflict and nothing has changed, only the two people involved know the answer.
"We've already chartered this boat, and it's about to depart. We won't be taking in any more passengers."
Before the boat owner could speak, two men walked over, their faces arrogant and their eyes showing disdain as they looked at the group. The taller man spoke first.
"Hey, you two, do you really need such a big boat? Let's all squeeze in."
Little Swallow, who was going down the stairs, happened to hear these words and spoke up indignantly. If they had spoken politely, Little Swallow would not have argued back, but their disdainful expressions made her uncomfortable.
Everyone was concerned about saving face and didn't dare to speak up, but Xiao Yanzi was different. She didn't care about any of that. If she was wronged and had someone backing her up, she would not let anyone bully her.
There's a saying that goes, "When someone has someone backing you up, you naturally become fearless."
But considering that the two of them had arrived first, Xiao Yanzi still spoke politely and suppressed her temper.
