Chapter 259 When did you tell her?
The mountain is not high, and there is a small Taoist temple on the top, which was not well-known before.
Not long ago, several online celebrities came to visit and posted their photos on social media, which made more people aware of the place.
The influencer effect brought in more people.
While praying to gods and Buddhas, people also take the opportunity to check in at various locations.
The men were all in good physical condition, and climbing the mountain in one go was no problem for them.
But to take care of the three girls, they stopped to rest halfway through the journey.
Zhou Yixiao's stamina is undeniable, given his years of boxing experience.
Yan Buyu and Qin Nianke leaned against each other, panting, looking extremely pitiful.
"Have some water." Si Jingxu poured two cups of hot water and gave one to each person.
"I'll carry you on my back later." He walked to Yan Buyu's side, squatted down, and looked up at her. "You look tired."
Sweat beaded on his forehead, his face was flushed, and he spoke with a weak voice.
Si Jingxu wiped away her sweat and helped tidy up her stray hairs, feeling extremely sorry for her.
"No." Yan Buyu shook his head. "We've come this far, let's hang in there."
Besides, there's Qin Nianke.
She has her boyfriend and brother, so anyone can carry her, but Qin Nian has no one to care for her.
She couldn't be the kind of bad friend who would betray her best friend and abandon her alone.
"My dear sister," Qin Nianke whispered in Yan Buyu's ear, her cup covering her mouth, "I'll kowtow a couple more times later to bless you and my cousin to stay together forever."
Yan Buyu said, "It's well-intentioned, but sister, can't you say something nice?"
Long Yu took out a few chocolates from his bag. "Here, little sister, see if your brother is well-prepared. Let's replenish our energy."
He Run walked over. "I want one too, why won't you give me one?"
"Have you no shame? You didn't bring anything and you're trying to steal our food from the kids. Go away." Long Yu ignored He Run.
"Thank you, Brother Long Yu." Yan Buyu thanked him and accepted the food, then distributed it to Zhou Yixiao and Qin Nianke.
Then, taking advantage of Long Yu's inattention, he slipped another one to He Run.
Sensing someone watching her, she instinctively turned her head away.
All that could be seen were Song Jingyi gazing into the distance and Chen Mo looking up at the sky.
"Brother Jingxu, do you want some chocolate?" she asked.
"I won't eat it, you eat it."
"Big brother, do you want some chocolate?" She walked up to Shen Yanzhou.
"If your brother doesn't want it, you can keep it." Shen Yanzhou ruffled her hair. "Will your brother carry it for you later?"
Yan Buyu shook his head. "I think I can do it. My mom told me to exercise more."
After speaking, she glanced at Song Jingyi, lowered her head, and remained silent for a few seconds.
Looking up again, she met Shen Yanzhou's gentle gaze.
He smiled and nodded at himself.
Without saying a word, she took a deep breath and walked slowly behind Song Jingyi.
Chen Mo nodded in acknowledgment and moved two steps toward the tree.
"Jing, Brother Jingyi," Yan Buyu called softly.
Song Jingyi kept a close eye on the movements behind him.
I knew she was walking lightly on the grass.
Then she heard a sound like a kitten, her nose tingled, and she slowly turned around. "Hmm?"
She was hesitant to extend her arm.
A chocolate bar, its packaging slightly deformed, rested on her delicate palm.
Song Jingyi turned to face her and patiently waited for her to speak.
"Jingyi, would you like some chocolate?"
Her voice trembled slightly as she spoke, and she didn't dare look at him. It must have taken a lot of courage for her to come over.
Song Jingyi chuckled and reached out to take the chocolate from her hand.
“Thank you, Little Fish,” he said.
Without saying a word, he rubbed his hands together, put them in the pockets of his windbreaker, looked down at the grass, and said, "No need, Brother Long Yu brought them, I'm just passing on what I can."
"I still want to thank you. I felt awkward asking others for food." Song Jingyi carefully put the chocolate into his pocket. "Are you tired?"
She shook her head, then nodded. "A little, but I feel much better after a rest."
"Beautiful lady, let me carry you on my back." Suddenly, a round, bald head appeared beside them.
Yan Buyu didn't notice there was someone behind the tree, and was startled, taking two steps back to the side.
Song Jingyi rushed over to steady her, then his expression hardened, and he kicked Acheng in the leg.
"Hey, boss, why did you kick me?" Acheng bent over, rubbing his leg, looking completely innocent. "I've been standing there for ages, I didn't know she didn't see me."
"Who told you to speak?" Song Jingyi felt a pang of distress when he saw Yan Buyu's face turn pale for a moment.
After saying that, he kicked Acheng twice more.
"Hey, Jingyi-ge." Yan Buyu came to her senses and, for some reason, suddenly reached out and grabbed Song Jingyi's sleeve. "Stop hitting him, it's not his fault."
Song Jingyi lowered his eyes, his small hands, the knuckles of which were white from the effort.
"Yeah, it's not my fault. Someone as handsome as me standing there, who knew the lady wouldn't look at me?" Acheng limped over to the tree and leaned against it.
Song Jingyi's gaze remained fixed on his sister's hands.
Even with all that effort, there wasn't much strength left.
If I had been with him since I was a child, I would definitely be taller and stronger than I am now.
"Sorry." Yan Buyu withdrew her hand, too embarrassed to look at Song Jingyi again. "Then I'll go back first and prepare to continue uphill."
Song Jingyi felt a pang of sadness, a mix of emotions welling up inside him, and he softly hummed in agreement.
Without saying a word, he turned and took two steps.
"Little fish".
She turned around.
Song Jingyi stood in front of the railing, the rising sun shining on him from behind, as if coating him with a warm light.
The person who usually inspires fear in everyone now has a gentle expression.
He looked into her eyes, his voice low and soft, "You never have to apologize to me, understand?"
She pursed her lips without saying a word, then turned and left.
Song Jingyi watched her retreating figure and sighed inwardly.
He really hoped his sister would blame him.
He blames himself for finding her too late in his past life, causing her so much suffering.
It's his own fault for discovering the truth too late in life, causing her to suffer so much abuse when she was young.
She should blame him.
"Hey, Amo, I want some chocolate too, do you have any?" Acheng walked up to Chen Mo without a care in the world.
Chen Mo glanced at him, expressionless, and said, "Go eat shit."
"You're disgusting. How could you be like this? You haven't seen me for days. Don't you miss me?" Acheng started chattering again.
Song Jingyi took out the chocolate from his pocket and held it in his hand.
Finally, under Acheng's expectant gaze, he straightened the packaging and put it back in his pocket.
Si Jingxu and Shen Yanzhou stood together, looking at the real brother and sister over there.
When did you tell her?
When did you tell her?
They both spoke at the same time.
After saying that, he looked at the other person in surprise.
"Not you?" Si Jingxu said to Shen Yanzhou, "I thought you had already told her when you told me to have Song Jingyi come."
“I haven’t figured out how to say it yet,” Shen Yanzhou’s heart sank. “I thought you were saying it over there just now.”
That's why she went to give Song Jingyi chocolates.
“It wasn’t me.” Si Jingxu frowned slightly. “Was it Uncle Shen or Aunt Lan?”
"It doesn't feel like it." Shen Yanzhou pondered, as nothing seemed amiss at home these past two days.
