Chapter 34 Chapter 34 “How could you possibly still look down on…
Everyone was puzzled and lamented Zhang Jingmin's almost self-destructive choice, but in the end they could only respect it.
The shallows at the water inlet.
The small raft moved between the trees.
Sometimes the boat accidentally gets stuck between two trees and has to go into the water to readjust the bow.
And you have to be quick, because this kind of swamp is most likely to host crocodiles, piranhas and even anacondas.
Everyone hadn't slept all night and was exhausted. They didn't want any more accidents to happen.
Yunti dozed off with her eyes half closed. Baobao nestled in her arms, basking in the sun.
The density of trees here is much less, the sun shines directly on the water, and heat waves are rolling in the air.
Li Xingyan rowed quietly.
He has adapted well to the role of boatman and rows more steadily than most of the competitors.
His raft was actually quite well-woven, with vines weaving between the timbers, making it sturdy and secure. Many contestants were amazed and envious.
He looked at the red marks on his palms, then looked at Yun Ti who finally had time to take a rest.
The light danced lightly on her eyelashes, and the mottled shadows of the trees waved a paintbrush on her cheeks.
Li Xingyan took off his coat, put it on the suitcase standing in the middle, and pulled the handle.
It just cast a shadow to block the glaring sunlight for Yunti.
Seeing that her frown finally relaxed, Li Xingyan curled the corners of his mouth happily.
These seemed to be all he could do, ordinary, trivial things.
Thinking of this, Li Xingyan suppressed his smile, lowered his eyes, and continued to row quietly.
It’s far from enough. He thought, he still has a lot to learn.
Ti Ti loves to eat, so after returning home, he will sign up for a cooking class for systematic learning, and he will definitely capture the stomach of his sweetheart.
Titti loves big trees, especially those with vines, tall branches, and easy to climb. He wants to transplant dozens of them, plant them in the mountain behind his home, and build a tall swing on the tree.
Titti also loves Baobao and Xiaohei, and of course he loves them too, after all, they are the "fruit of their love".
If it weren't for the monkey and the snake, how could Titi be "forced" to be tied together with herself, and even when choosing a raft of two people, would she not hesitate to reject the invitation of Ye Xuan, Ban Lie, Ming Jiaojiao and others.
Even though he is so useless, at least he can be considered as a father who is honored by his son.
I was thinking about how to take Baobao and Xiaohei away legally after leaving here.
Suddenly, cries of crying were heard from the jungles on both sides.
A group of monkeys were running among the treetops near the shore, following the direction of the raft's movement.
It ran and yelled, much like a monkey cursing in the street from Mount Emei.
Everyone was on high alert as if they were facing a great enemy.
Xiao Hei stood on Li Xingyan's head, hissing and spitting out tongue.
Under the pressure of the king, the monkeys dared not go into the water and could only shout louder in the trees.
Baobao hid his head in Yunti's clothes and couldn't get it out no matter how the other party tried to pull it out.
Yun Ti and Li Xingyan looked at each other.
It’s over, the parents are here to help.
"Bang, are those jerk-ass monkeys across the street your parents, uncles, aunts, and aunts?"
Xiao Hei rolled his small, vertical eyes, looking a little unhappy. "Are you leaving then? Will we meet again?"
Following the rhythm of the monkey's call, Xiao Hei also chattered: "Baozi, you have to be happy when we say goodbye, okay, Baozi, you have to be happy, how can I live without you... Baozi, take me away... Oh, go by yourself, I won't go, I want to be mommy and daddy's only legitimate son, hehe."
"Shut up!"
Baobao poked his furry head out, jumping up and down in anger. "I'm Mama and Papa's eldest son! I don't even know those monkeys! I'm not leaving! I'm not leaving!!!"
In the eyes of humans, this behavior is like kidnapping someone else's newborn baby. After raising the baby for a while, the adult from the other family grabs weapons and brings all the villagers to snatch the baby away.
However, the child is so obsessed with the "small favors" from his adoptive parents that he completely forgets and even resists the arrival of his biological father and mother.
When the monkey cub in Yunti's arms showed its face, the monkeys' cries in the forest became more violent.
The deafening sound pressure makes people feel upset and resentful.
Yun Ti's hearing has always been extremely sensitive. At this moment, she covered her ears with one hand and grabbed the back of Baobao's neck with the other hand. Her eyes remained calm, "You should go home, Baobao."
-
The raft got stuck between the tree stumps in the middle of the river, and Xiao Hei, who posed a threat to the monkey group, was left on the boat.
Under the gaze of others, Yun Ti and Li Xingyan got off the boat and waded into the forest on foot.
This is a swamp. Every step you take must be taken with extreme caution.
But Li Xingyan walked too slowly.
He is stalling for time.
"Otherwise, don't go. I'll go alone..."
Yun Ti frowned and was about to say, "I'll go and deliver Baobao myself."
A glance at the other person's red eyes frightened her so much that her throat choked.
"Do we have to...send Bakugo away?"
Li Xingyan's voice was muffled, and his wet puppy eyes looked even more pitiful.
Baobao also grabbed Yunti's clothes tightly and screamed heart-wrenchingly.
As soon as it called, the monkeys quarreled even more violently.
Boom Boom must be returned to the monkey troop.
This was not a sudden idea; the thought had actually been lingering in Yun Ti's mind.
They were just passers-by who accidentally stumbled into the rainforest and could not take it away. What's more, there was no space suitable for it to survive in the human world.
She didn't want Bobo to end up dying in rows of concrete or trapped in a steel cage for people to watch and enjoy.
Standing under the tree.
The monkey's cry suddenly stopped, leaving only the rustling sound of leaves.
A few older monkeys stood in the front, baring their teeth at them.
Further back, several mother monkeys holding their cubs were squatting on the treetops watching the fun.
The little monkey, who was a little tougher, climbed up the vine and swung into the air, observing the two bipedal "foreigners" with curiosity.
Yun Ti and Li Xingyan just spread their hands and said nothing as the other contestants reminded them when getting off the boat.
Monkeys are very smart animals. They can judge the intentions of others just by their actions.
After realizing that they had no ill intentions, the Monkey King grabbed the branch with one hand and suddenly swung down his other arm.
"Don't leave me! Baobao is very good, Mommy, please don't abandon me!"
Baobao screamed and twisted around, moving from Yunti's arms to the back of her neck.
In Baobao's mind, he was clearly abandoned by his biological parents when the monkeys were fleeing on a rainstorm night, and almost became a meal for the giant python. It was his own cleverness that made him choose a strong human mother.
Now that it has grown up healthily and shown unlimited potential, those treacherous monkeys are filled with regret and come here to fight for custody!
Who can understand the sadness in Baobao's heart...
Seeing Yun Ti's expressionless face, it seemed that she was determined to send him away.
It jumped onto Li Xingyan's shoulder.
But the Monkey King was faster. He swung his long arm and picked up Baobao.
Falling into despair, Baobao flapped his hands and feet wildly, and accidentally, his sharp claws scratched a long bloody mark on Li Xingyan's body.
Blood soon seeped out from the neck to the chin.
Baobao was stunned for a moment, and then he was taken away by the monkeys in the next moment.
The treetops swayed and leaves fluttered, and in less than a minute, silence returned to the place.
Don't be sad, this is the law of survival of all things.
Yun Ti turned her head away and suddenly felt that being a human was not that good. She was always constrained by some irrelevant emotions.
On the way back, the two were unusually silent.
Halfway through the walk, Li Xingyan stopped moving.
"Are you blaming me for sending Bakugo away?"
"I feel like I'm stuck in a swamp..."
They both spoke at the same time.
Yun Ti turned around and saw that Li Xingyan's entire lower body had disappeared.
If it was any later, only the pair of watery eyes would be exposed.
The depressed mood seemed to have found a breakthrough.
Yun Ti half-knelt beside Li Xingyan and began to ruffle his hair fiercely as if to vent her anger, until he raised his resentful eyes and silently pushed her palm.
Yun Ti suddenly smiled.
-
The unfortunate fellow stepped on a hole in the swamp.
Like quicksand, once you fall into it, the soft fluid around you will immediately gather, and the huge suction force will be like an invisible hand, pulling your body down tightly.
If we have to pull it out forcibly, it is not impossible, but we are afraid of dislocating the fragile young master's arm.
Humans rack their brains, but are not as good as Leopard's sudden inspiration.
Yun Ti suddenly became playful and lay flat on her back next to Li Xingyan.
"Well, you learn from me."
Stretch out your hands and grab the surface of the mud and sand, slowly shaking your lower body left and right.
"Slow down, slower..."
While swinging your lower body, don't let your upper body sit idle either.
While swaying, use the strength of your hands to climb out in a plank position.
Seeing the smile on Yun Ti's face getting brighter and brighter, Li Xingyan realized belatedly that he was being "too ridiculous" again.
Like a stunted cricket pupa, or like a terrier begging for food by shaking its butt.
The accumulated grievances and inferiority collapsed the moment he climbed out of the swamp in the standard "downward dog" position.
"I am willing to be her dog, but she can't really treat me as just a dog."
Li Xingyan panted heavily, lying in the mud in a state of self-abandonment, and whispered, "If I were Ye Xuan, you would definitely not tease me like this."
"Ye Xuan?" Yun Ti was puzzled. "What does he have to do with this?"
…
Is it possible that she can only capture the keyword "Ye Xuan"?
Has she already...
The love is deep.
But now he has lost Baobao, and he might lose Xiaohei soon. How can he continue to be honored by his son?
Li Xingyan didn't want to dwell on this question. He suddenly stood up and quickly changed the subject, "Let's go."
"But I'm very curious, why do you seem to hate Ye Xuan?" Yun Ti asked in a deep voice.
She originally thought that the plot of the original book had deviated.
Shen Tai and others did not die at the hands of Ye Xuan.
Zhang Jingmin is not as "powerful and influential" as described in the book.
Although he had saved Ming Jiaojiao several times, he had not died in the mouth of a crocodile because of protecting her from disasters. Of course, the crocodile probably didn't dare to show up.
Also, Li Xingyan did not have such close interactions with the villain group, and he did not even directly provoke or humiliate Ye Xuan repeatedly.
But Yun Ti could still sense that Li Xingyan seemed to have a deep hostility towards Ye Xuan.
"Why?"
I heard her question again.
Li Xingyan stumbled and stopped, "If I say I hate him, you..."
He paused, "Will you hate me?"
"I don't hate you. But don't go against him. You can't beat him."
Yun Ti really began to worry that Li Xingyan would secretly commit suicide when she wasn't paying attention, dancing on Ye Xuan's head and unknowingly increasing his hatred value.
In the end, he was targeted by the other party, and his happy and wealthy family was turned upside down.
How could a naive and unlucky naive person be a match for the shrewd and calculating "Son of Fortune"?
…
She doesn't hate me. But she doesn't like me either.
Because she doesn't care about me at all.
Li Xingyan's eyes felt sore and he turned his head to the other side.
Seeing his stubborn look, Yun Ti turned around with a wooden face.
Forget it, if someone wants to die, you can’t stop him.
Just as he was about to leave, his wrist was tightly grasped by the person behind him.
At this time, Young Master Li had just crawled out of the mud. His exquisite hairstyle and expensive clothes were all soaked in mud and water. His fair face was also bruised, and he looked extremely miserable.
"I'm not trying to be antagonistic to him. I just..."
Jealous. Jealous of them all for being so brave, resourceful, and strong.
Inferiority complex. Titti is more and more convinced that she is "an incompetent idiot who is inferior to Ye Xuan in every way".
Afraid. Afraid that I would be like Bakugo, and once I left here, she would abandon me without a single glance.
Tears welled up in Li Xingyan's eyes, his breathing became rapid and heavy, and he cried as he said:
"When you were rich and powerful and were being courted by others, you ignored me."
"Now you know, I'm actually... a piece of trash. I'm not even close to Ye Xuan. How, how could you possibly still look up to me?"
-----------------------
The author has something to say: Love can easily make people feel inferior! Actually, the young master is not a loser, it’s just that his skills are not suitable for this variety show. After all, he is a talented and artistic boy. However, it is just right for the carefree robot to repeatedly crush Bking’s pride, and he will be a good dog from now on. Hehehehe [covering his face and peeking][covering his face and peeking]
Also, Boom Boom Furious: I'm gone now, and you're all like this? You only care about sending a few! You don't care about me at all! Just wait! I'll definitely be back!!!
(Thank you readers for your encouragement and support! I read every one of them carefully and was deeply moved! This is the meaning of my writing. Wow [burst into tears][burst into tears])
