The confession took place on a large grassy field.
"Out in the open?" Shen Jingnian frowned slightly. "Have you considered that it might rain tomorrow?"
"besides--"
Shen Jingnian's gaze fell on the yellow chrysanthemums beside him, and he almost laughed in exasperation. He pressed his temples and said, "Who taught you to use chrysanthemums to express your love?"
"Isn't chrysanthemum good?" Will asked doubtfully. "I specifically looked it up. In Chinese culture, chrysanthemums are a symbol of elegance and transcendence."
and.
Chrysanthemums are also one of the Four Friends of Winter.
Will did a lot of research before deciding to cover the confession site with chrysanthemums.
Shen Jingnian turned to look at Will, "In our China, yellow chrysanthemums are only used at funerals."
Upon hearing this...
Will stared wide-eyed in disbelief. "What?! I'll have someone replace these chrysanthemums right away!"
"Hurry up and change it." Shen Jingnian's thin lips parted slightly. "Don't make things worse and end up getting beaten up instead of confessing your feelings."
Will was still shaken. "Thank you, Ninth Master. It's a good thing you're here! Otherwise, I would have had a really hard time dealing with this tomorrow."
Jiang Ning never thought highly of him.
What if there's a mistake!
They probably won't even be able to be friends anymore.
--
Jiang Ning is hiking with her parents.
It is the seventh month of the lunar calendar.
Although it's still very hot, it's quite cool in the mountains.
The mountain isn't very high, and although it hasn't been developed yet, its beautiful scenery and the large lake at the summit attract many people to climb it around this time of year.
Si Huashang and Shi Nanxing walked ahead.
Jiang Ning and Grandma Shi walked slowly behind.
Occasionally, when Jiang Ning encounters a wild grass by the roadside, she will pick it and share it with Grandma Shi. "Grandma, don't be fooled by how ordinary this grass looks. It is also a Chinese medicine, scientifically known as Euphorbia helioscopia. It is slightly toxic, but it also has the effects of promoting diuresis and reducing swelling, detoxifying and killing insects."
Grandma Shi listened attentively and said with a smile, "No wonder they say that nameless grass doesn't grow on the ground. Our Shengbao is really amazing. He knows everything."
The family of four chatted and laughed all the way, creating a particularly harmonious atmosphere.
Around 12:00 PM, we climbed to the natural lake at the top of the mountain.
The weather is great today. The sunlight reflects the blue color of Tianxian Lake, creating a beautiful scene. There are already quite a few tourists by the lake.
Shi Nanxing took out the camera. "Mom, Huashang, Shengbao, let's take a family photo together."
“Okay.” Si Huashang nodded.
Bang!
Just as the family was about to take a family photo, a loud noise suddenly came from the lakeside.
Then came shouts, "Something's wrong! Someone's fallen into the water!"
Shi Nanxing immediately put down his camera and ran towards the lake.
Jiang Ning followed in Shi Nanxing's footsteps.
The family of four walked to the edge and saw that the child who had fallen into the lake was an eleven or twelve-year-old.
A large crowd had gathered by the lake, discussing the situation. "Whose child is this? Where are the adults? Why didn't they keep a close eye on him?"
“I just saw him playing here alone and reminded him to be careful. He scolded me for being nosy. I never expected that he would fall down in the blink of an eye.”
"......."
However, although there were many people around, no one dared to go down to rescue the person.
Firstly, because Tianxian Lake is very deep, there have been instances of people drowning there in the past.
Secondly, the temperature difference on the mountain is large, so the lake water is very cold. If a person were to enter the water rashly, they would definitely suffer leg cramps and drown due to the huge temperature difference.
Shi Nanxing took off her coat and was about to jump in to save the person, but Si Huashang grabbed her arm. "Nanxing! Don't be impulsive. Can you swim?"
Shi Nanxing was taken aback, then realized that she couldn't swim.
Grandma Shi grabbed Shi Nanxing's arm, saying, "Nanxing! You can't go down there if you can't swim. I heard that there's a cliff-like drop at the edge of Tianxian Lake, hundreds of meters deep. What if you get yourself drowned instead of being rescued?"
Even if Shi Nanxing could swim, it wouldn't be safe in such a deep lake.
Jiang Ning, who also couldn't swim, said anxiously, "If only I had a swimming ring!"
Although Tianxian Lake is very deep, the weather is fine today and the lake is calm. As long as the child holds onto the swimming ring, he can hold on until the rescuers arrive.
Just then, Jiang Ning suddenly saw someone holding a swimming ring not far away.
She immediately ran over quickly, "Excuse me, someone has fallen into the lake ahead. Could I borrow your swimming ring?"
She was so focused on saving people that she didn't even realize the person with the swimming ring was Grandma Song!
Since the incident involving the Song family, Song Yaozu has been in a bad mood.
Grandma Song was afraid that if things continued like this, her beloved grandson would become depressed. With Song Junying in jail, Song Yaozu was the Song family's last hope.
So he took Song Yaozu hiking.
but.
The old lady Song is no longer as glamorous as she once was.
She was wearing faded clothes, and her once-dyed hair was now showing white patches, making her look more than ten times older than before.
Grandma Song looked at Jiang Ning with great satisfaction. She never thought that the Shi family would have to ask her for help one day!
It's obvious without even thinking that the person who fell into the lake must be a member of the Shi family.
Otherwise, why would Jiang Ning be in such a hurry?
What a fitting end!
Since the Shi family refused to help her son in his time of need, they shouldn't blame her for being heartless!
The Shi family can just wait to hold a funeral!
Grandma Song gripped the swimming ring tightly in her hand and said, word by word, "Why would I lend a swimming ring to someone like you?"
