Chapter 171 Traveling
Gao Hu was stunned for a long time holding the phone. Gao Long saw that Gao Hu was distracted and poked him from the side, "Brother, why are you distracted? What did Mr. Huo say? Is Mrs. Huo in danger? Do we need to rescue her?"
Gao Long said as he went to look for his knife, "Brother, why are you still standing there? If you keep wasting time here, be careful of the consequences. Hurry and leave."
"The young lady isn't in any danger." Seeing his brother's impatience, Gao Hu quickly stopped him. "Boss Huo is giving us a holiday for no reason, and he specifically told us that no matter what the young lady wants me to do, we won't be able to do it."
“But we’re pretty free right now.”
"Oh my silly brother, why don't you understand? I guess Madam Huo and Mr. Huo are having some little conflict and don't want us to disturb their world of two."
"What should we do, brother? We can't just ignore the call from the young lady, right?" Gao Long said, carefully putting the knife he had picked up back to its original place and looking at Gao Hu.
"It's really hard to say." Gao Hu answered his brother's words, glanced at his phone, and pressed the power button. "It's not easy for us to answer the call from the young lady, so to prevent such a thing from happening, I chose to turn off the phone."
Gao Long looked at his brother's wise move and couldn't help but give him a thumbs up. "My brother is really smart. Since we have a day off today, let's go have a few drinks."
…
On the other side, Lin Yilan saw that Huo Juncheng had called Gao Hu before her. She stretched out her hands in front of her, looked at Huo Juncheng with a ferocious face, and clenched her fists, as if she wanted to eat Huo Juncheng.
However, Huo Juncheng was not frightened by Lin Yilan and continued to smile, "Gao Long and Gao Hu don't have time to accompany you now."
"You mean you don't have time? I don't believe you!"
Lin Yilan glared at Huo Juncheng, then dialed Gao Hu's number. Unexpectedly, Gao Hu's phone was turned off. Lin Yilan glanced at Huo Juncheng who was watching the show with a smile not far away, and dialed Gao Hu's number again without giving up.
The result was of course the same as the first time, still no one answered...
"Huo Juncheng, you are so childish. What's wrong with eating spicy crayfish with me? You don't like such a delicious thing. Is your sense of taste still normal?"
"Your sense of taste is abnormal, right? That kind of food is not delicious except for being spicy."
When Lin Yilan heard Huo Juncheng say this, she could allow herself to be ridiculed by Huo Juncheng, but she would not allow Huo Juncheng to look down on spicy crayfish!
"Tsk, that's because you can't handle spicy food. What kind of man is he if a grown man can't handle spicy food? Forget it, if you really don't have the courage to eat spicy crayfish, I won't force you."
"Provocation doesn't work on me." Huo Juncheng already knew what Lin Yilan was planning. He said a few words lightly, extinguishing Lin Yilan's hope for the spicy crayfish.
Hearing Huo Juncheng say this, Lin Yilan's face fell, and she looked like an eggplant hit by frost, completely wilted.
In the end, Lin Yilan still failed to defeat Huo Juncheng, and went to the restaurant Huo Juncheng had booked to eat steak, but in return, Huo Juncheng promised Lin Yilan to go hiking with her the next morning.
…
The next morning, before dawn, Lin Yilan woke Huo Juncheng up and said that she and Huo Juncheng should go to the mountain where she and Chu Siran went last time. They should go early so that they can see the sunrise when they reach the top of the mountain.
However, Huo Juncheng refused without a second thought. His reason was: Climbing is fine, but you have to go to reasonable scenic spots. If you go to the mountain in the suburbs, what if you get injured again?
Faced with the threat of Huo Juncheng's powerful aura, Lin Yilan couldn't persuade him and had to agree to go to the mountain for the scenic spot. Coincidentally, they were just about to catch up with the temple fair on Qinglong Mountain today.
"Mr. Huo, how about we have a competition to see who can reach the small pavilion halfway up the mountain first?"
Lin Yilan breathed in the fresh air and felt much more relaxed. She looked at the bright red pavilion halfway up the mountain and looked at Huo Juncheng beside her with great interest.
"No, you better stay by my side."
"Why?" Lin Yilan was obviously not very satisfied after hearing Huo Juncheng's answer. She pouted and looked at Huo Juncheng angrily.
Looking at Lin Yilan's bulging cheeks, Huo Juncheng couldn't help but reach out and poke Lin Yilan's cheeks, "I don't want you to encounter any danger again, especially when you are with me."
"You're not a child anymore. As for the dangers, what's more, I have all the skills I need. I can handle any danger myself, right?"
"How do you explain the last time we went hiking?"
Lin Yilan knew that Huo Juncheng would bring up what happened last time, and she was speechless for a moment. She was just careless and negligent last time, but Huo Juncheng brought it up again and again. She was helpless.
"Okay, okay, let's not compete." Finally, Lin Yilan had to compromise.
Huo Juncheng looked at Lin Yilan beside him and was in a particularly good mood. He even took Lin Yilan's hand. Lin Yilan was a little uncomfortable at first and tried to break free several times, but later Huo Juncheng held her hand many times. Lin Yilan simply stopped struggling and let him do it.
Because it was a temple fair today, there seemed to be a lot of tourists. If the two of them hadn't been holding hands, they would have probably gotten separated accidentally.
"Hey, you heard that the Yue Lao Temple up ahead is pretty accurate in getting love fortunes. Do you want to go get one?"
"Really? I just had a fight with my boyfriend the past few days, so I went to the temple to get a fortune stick to figure out what's going on."
"Look at how excited you are. I'm not worried at all because I know that it's impossible for me and my idol to be together. He can only live in my dreams."
"You star-chasing girl, be realistic. Be careful not to become an old woman in the end."
Just like that, the three of them left arm in arm.
But Huo Juncheng heard everything the three people said clearly, "They just mentioned Yue Lao Temple, are you interested in going to see it?"
Lin Yilan was concentrating on looking at the scenery around her and didn't pay any attention to the conversation between the three people just now. When she heard Huo Juncheng suddenly talking to her about Yue Lao Temple, she couldn't help but be surprised.
"No way, Huo Juncheng, are you so superstitious?"
"It's nothing serious anyway, so it won't hurt to go over and take a look."
"Didn't we agree to go to the small pavilion halfway up the mountain?"
"We're not playing, so it doesn't matter if we go later."
After Huo Juncheng finished speaking, without waiting for Lin Yilan to react, he half-heartedly took Lin Yilan to the Yue Lao Temple. Looking at the boys and girls around her, Lin Yilan couldn't help but feel ashamed.
"There are so many people here, are you sure we should queue here?"
Huo Juncheng didn't expect that there would be so many people here. Seeing the huge crowds of people, he felt a little daunted. Originally, he just thought it was boring and came here to join in the fun.
"Then let's go."
"Please stay, benefactors." Just as the two were about to leave, a voice suddenly called them.
