Chapter 346 Absolute Imprisonment (10) - Lakeside Camping
Si Zhong looked at her flushed face and chuckled to himself.
His gaze shifted to the plate of fruit, and some inappropriate thoughts popped into his mind again.
Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Ning Shu and saw her so focused on her laptop, which dispelled the thought that had just crossed his mind.
After finishing this novel, Ning Shu accidentally clicked on a domineering CEO novel and was speechless at the melodramatic plot.
Although the plot is melodramatic, the male lead is genuinely good to the female lead, especially compared to the actions of another character.
Ning Shu stopped reading after reading a third of the book, finding it rather uninteresting.
Seeing that Si Zhong was still reading, she thought that she should cook today, and she couldn't always let him do the cooking.
The main point is that it's about giving and receiving, so that it's easier to get the other party to do things in the future.
Ning Shu, with her own plans in mind, went to the kitchen and opened the refrigerator to check its contents.
She selected a few items, washed and cleaned them in the kitchen, and prepared to start cooking.
Si Zhong suddenly appeared at the kitchen doorway: "What are you doing?"
Ning Shu was startled: "You scared me to death."
She patted her chest. "I'm cooking. Why are you even asking?"
Si Zhong knew she was cooking, but was she the kind of person who would take the initiative to cook?
He walked over and snatched the things from her hands: "Alright, if you're bored, go play games, don't mess around here."
Ning Shu complained, "What do you mean? Are you looking down on someone? I can cook, okay?"
Si Zhong: "I know you can do it, but I don't trust you to do it."
Ning Shu was reminded of her past by his words. Was he afraid that she would poison him again?
Whom do you look down on?
She usually doesn't use the same trick twice.
Ning Shu wanted to explain that she genuinely wanted to cook this time.
But the person just looked distrustful, as if her presence in the kitchen was a compromising situation.
"Hmph, fine, I won't do it then."
Ning Shu left in a huff, thinking that she would rather cook for the dog than cook for him in the future.
Si Zhong watched her leave angrily and took over her work without any psychological barrier.
During dinner, Ning Shu glanced at the table and found that all the dishes on it were what she wanted to eat. She was surprised that he had guessed what she wanted to eat.
Actually, these are the dishes she's less likely to mess up, and they're not her favorites, but whatever, she can't worry about that now.
Ning Shu was initially furious after he kicked her out, but seeing the delicious-smelling food, she forgave him.
Who wouldn't love a life where everything is done for them?
Tonight, Ning Shu went to bed on time, without tossing and turning, and fell asleep almost as soon as she lay down.
After taking a bath, Si Zhong was looking forward to enjoying himself, but the other person was sleeping like a log, leaving him at a loss for what to do.
Should I follow my own heart, or... follow hers?
Ning Shu finally slept well, and Si Zhong didn't bother her in the end.
After getting up, Si Zhong said, "We're going camping today. Pack anything you'd like to bring."
Ning Shu thought about it and considered bringing a laptop, but then decided against it because she knew she wouldn't be able to access the internet outside.
Si Zhong had a lot of space, and she managed to stuff all the things she wanted to bring inside.
Ning Shu didn't expect that although they were the only ones in this instance, the map was very large.
She suddenly felt as if they were in the end times, and the whole world had turned upside down, leaving only them.
"Why did you leave us here? You could have at least made a few NPCs. I'm so bored," Ning Shu complained from the passenger seat.
Si Zhong was focused on driving when he heard her say, "If you don't find it boring to stay in bed all day, we can do that too."
Ning Shu: "...Never mind, let's go for a walk."
Damn it, what decent family would stay in bed all day? It's not only a disgrace to the family, but it's also bad for their health.
Si Zhong led her to a lakeside. The lakeside area was not large, but the water was clear, and there was a yellow-green grassy area around the lake.
Yes, it's yellowish-green.
This is the scene Ning Shu saw after getting off the bus.
"The grass is a bit yellow," she remarked.
Si Zhong looked around, searching for the best spot to pitch his tent.
Hearing Ning Shu's words, "Camping is only suitable when the grass starts to turn yellow, otherwise it will be too hot."
Ning Shu didn't expect that he had specially adjusted the season. Si Zhong seemed to have chosen a good spot and began taking out equipment from his spatial storage.
Ning Shu watched him work from the side. He first spread out a moisture-proof mat on the grass, smoothed it out, and then started setting up the tent.
After finishing all that, he took out two folding chairs and a small folding table.
He said to Ning Shu, "Please organize these things, and also get the sleeping mats for camping ready."
Ning Shu glanced at it: "Then what are you going to do?"
"I've got the cooking equipment all set up."
Ning Shu said "Oh" and did as he said. While tidying up the sleeping mat, she discovered that it needed to be inflated.
I wonder if this mat is reliable or not. I wonder if it will burst if someone lies on it.
She said to Si Zhong, "The mat needs to be inflated. Did you bring any inflation equipment?"
Si Zhong was fiddling with the portable stove, not even turning his head: "Look in that pile of stuff, it's all there."
Ning Shu looked at the pile of things next to her, went over and rummaged through them, found the inflation equipment, and inflated the sleeping mat.
She's not very heavy, so lying on her shouldn't be a problem. I just don't know if Si Zhong will have any issues if he lies down on her.
Ning Shu was worried that the sleeping mat would burst after Si Zhong lay down on it, so she simply let out some air to prevent it from becoming too inflated.
After she finished what she was doing, she looked over at Si Zhong and saw that the stove was already set up and the water was boiling, and he was setting up the barbecue grill.
Ning Shu stepped forward and discovered that the stove for boiling water used gas, while the barbecue grill used charcoal.
"Want some barbecue? Where are the vegetables? Do you need them washed?"
Si Zhong was still fiddling with the barbecue grill, pointing to the trunk of the car: "The food is all in the trunk. Go and unload it. If you think it needs washing, take it to the lake to wash it."
Ning Shu quickly opened the trunk of the car and saw a wide variety of ingredients on it. The meats were all packaged, and the plastic wrap had the words "washed" on it.
The same three words were also on the box of green vegetables. The only things that needed to be washed were fruits and potatoes with peels.
Of course, there are also dishes and chopsticks to wash.
This was already very convenient. Ning Shu first moved all the ingredients that didn't need to be washed to the table next to the barbecue grill.
Si Zhong had a lot of space, so he brought several folding tables, which together made the tables large and wide.
After Ning Shu finished moving all the ingredients, she went to the lakeside to wash them, and then carried them directly to the large table.
Looking around, I realized that Si Zhong was good at choosing locations. The tent faced the lake, and the barbecue grill was placed downwind, some distance away from the tent.
The table for placing the ingredients is located upwind of the grill, so it won't be contaminated by charcoal ash.
