The place that Lin's father and mother specially selected has mountains and water, and the environment is excellent. The air around is extremely fresh. A few steps away is a clear stream, as well as large and small stones and small fish swimming happily in the river.
Little Yu Miao has been following Mr. and Mrs. Lin the entire time. She seemed to be in very good condition, much happier than usual, with a smile on her face the entire time.
Mu Ci, however, quickly became listless after her initial excitement. She walked a few steps and then stopped to rub her legs. She looked exhausted and said weakly with a frown, "Are you still playing? Why are you so energetic? I'm almost dying of exhaustion!"
Yu Shi turned around and glanced at her nonchalantly, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
This man was so excited at first that he almost jumped to the sky, but within two hours he became a dried salted fish that couldn't even turn over.
Although Yu Shi was speechless about Mu Ci's half-hearted attitude, his body was very honest. He would look back at the person behind him every two steps.
Finally, they had enough fun and it was getting dark. Mr. and Mrs. Lin helped them solve the problem of outdoor meals and finally started to rest.
"I live alone!" Mu Ci raised his hand and said in advance.
Mother Lin ignored her and continued to talk about her personnel allocation: "There are two tents in total. Her father and I will have one tent, and you three kids will have one tent. I don't think you have any objections, do you?"
Before the other two said anything, Mu Ci spoke first, saying to Lin's mother with a look of surprise, "Mom, are you kidding me? You let Yu Shi and I share a tent, and you don't worry about me? You are too careless."
This statement was a bit too straightforward, and the person who was being poked and pointed at frowned his pretty eyebrows slightly, then raised his head and glanced in Mu Ci's direction. His eyes were full of complicated expressions, and in the end he said nothing.
Mother Lin's mouth twitched, and then she explained silently: "It's not safe at night, Yu Shi can still take care of you two. And..."
Mother Lin walked over and stood in front of Mousse. Without saying a word, she raised her hand and slapped her head hard. She said speechlessly, "What kind of mess do you think about every day in your little head? With your brain capacity, you might as well learn more from Yu Shi and get one or two more places in the exam. I, your mother, will be satisfied!"
Mu Ci held his head with a look of deep resentment.
After simply packing up their things, Mr. and Mrs. Lin gave them some specific instructions on safety matters, and then they all crawled into their own tents.
Mu Ci was a little reluctant at first, but when she saw Yu Shi crawl into the tent very naturally, she found a corner for her to sleep, and simply turned to the side without even looking at her, as if she just fell asleep like that.
Mousse suddenly felt unbalanced.
Yu Miao, who was still standing beside her, tugged at Mu Ci's hand and said, "Sister Mu Ci, don't be angry. Let's go to bed quickly. We've been tired all day. And you don't have to worry. Brother sleeps very well. He doesn't snore or grind his teeth, and he won't toss and turn and hit anyone. Don't worry."
Mu Ci felt like crying but had no tears.
He was a good sleeper, but she was not. If she fell asleep tonight, she would probably flip from the left side of the tent to the right side.
Seeing the fatigue in Yu Miao's eyes, Mu Ci didn't say anything more. He followed her in and slept in the leftmost corner.
There were people sleeping on the left and right sides, leaving a large empty space in the middle. Yu Miao had a mature look on her face, sighed to herself, and lay down obediently in the middle.
When everything became quiet, Yu Shi leaned on the other side, and his eyes, which had been lightly closed, slowly opened. However, there was a heavy mist in his eyes, as if there was something lingering.
He stared at the tent right in front of him, without a trace of sleepiness in his eyes.
Everything that happened today kept echoing in his mind, the happy figures of Lin's father and mother holding Yu Miao's backs, Mu Ci's lively look of walking and stopping from excitement at the beginning to resentment and hatred at the end, including the beautiful scenery here, no matter which one, made his heart unable to calm down for a long time.
Yu Shi recalled that after the earth-shaking changes that had taken place in his family a few years ago, he had not lived such a peaceful, relaxed and happy life like an ordinary person for a long time.
Because of Yu Miao, he was afraid that the impact of this incident would have a bad impact on her, so he had been trying his best to find a way to get her out of the shadows, but now Mu Ci was able to do it bit by bit invisibly.
After this matter was resolved, he suddenly felt empty inside, as if a huge rock had fallen from his heart. He instantly relaxed a lot, but then came the emotions and longing that he had tried so hard to suppress before.
He thought of the tall figure, the gentle whispers, and how the family had once gone out happily like this. Yu Shi's nose felt sore and his eyes were hot, but he couldn't fall asleep.
He suppressed his sudden surge of longing, pursed his lips, stared at the thick tent in front of him, and squinted his eyes.
It was late at night.
In the quiet night, the sound of steady breathing gradually came to mind, including the intermittent snoring of Father Lin from the tent next door.
It might have been past midnight by now, but the sudden surge of sour emotions in his heart made Yu Shi unable to fall asleep.
Suddenly, the movement of the person next to him turning over drew Yu Shi's attention back. He was startled, thinking that Yu Miao was having hysterics again. Then he turned over and saw that Mu Ci was holding Yu Miao tightly in his arms while turning over, as if he was treating her as a pillow.
Yu Shi was stunned for a moment. The emotions that suddenly surged in his heart had now been mostly dissipated by her action.
Yu Shi's mouth twitched, not knowing what to say.
The man who looked extremely reluctant just now is now sleeping soundly and more comfortably than anyone else.
Sighing, Yu Shi saw the two of them like this and was afraid that Yu Miao would be suffocated to death by this man without knowing it. He sat up and pulled Mu Ci's arm, trying to make her relax a little and give Yu Miao some breathing space.
What she didn't expect was that after Yu Shi pulled her like that, Mu Ci was really unhappy. She closed her eyes tightly, but her body pulled her arms back unconsciously. It seemed that she tightened her arms around Yu Miao even more.
Yu Shi: “…”
Since Yu Miao was still small and underdeveloped, she seemed to have difficulty breathing when being held tightly in Mu Ci's arms.
Yu Shi frowned, looked at the right angle, and used his skill to gently release the two people.
In just a short while, Yu Shiping felt more tired than if he had run 1 kilometer.
He was about to breathe a sigh of relief when he didn't expect a white, tender, slender arm to pass before his eyes. Yu Shi's eyes widened and his pupils shrank before he could react. The next moment, he was thrown to the ground and hugged tightly.
I don't know when, Mu Ci had passed Yu Miao who was lying in the middle, and was now lying quietly beside Yu Shi, with his arms tightly wrapped around his waist, his little face buried in his arms, on his chest, as if he felt it was easier to hug him here, and subconsciously rubbed it to find a comfortable angle and position, and then obediently continued to fall into a deep sleep.
Yu Shi froze and dared not move. It took him a long time to realize that this position was very dangerous. He struggled for a long time, and then tried to pull Mu Ci's arm like he did just now. Sure enough, the guy tightened his grip even more.
Yu Shi's eyelashes trembled slightly, and his body froze completely, not daring to move anymore.
The part of Yu Shi's waist that Mu Ci tightly embraced happened to be the most sensitive part. He almost couldn't hold back and pushed Mu Ci away. If he moved again, he might really wake everyone up. Yu Shi lowered his head and glanced at the person who was sleeping soundly in his arms. After a long time, he sighed softly.
I closed my eyes, and the chaotic thoughts and emotions in my mind had already been tortured by this man to the point that nothing was left, and I couldn't remember anything.
For a moment, he was extremely tired. Not long after, maintaining this posture, Yu Shi fell into a deep sleep.
It was late at night and there was no sound except for everyone's even breathing and the occasional rising and falling snoring of Lin's father.
The time after falling asleep is always very short.
In his dreams, Yu Shi always felt that there was a bear holding him tightly. He was being pressed down by the bear and couldn't breathe.
When he gradually saw the bear's appearance, he was horrified to find that it was Lin Muci!
Yu Shi's brows were furrowed and his forehead was covered with cold sweat, but he just couldn't wake up.
The sun rises slowly in the early morning, shining through the layers of leaves, casting mottled shadows of the trees, and the insects in the woods and mountains begin to chirp.
Mu Ci opened her eyes dazedly, frowned slightly and listened to the crisp sounds of insects beside her ears. She looked up and found herself wearing a familiar white long-sleeved shirt and a black sports jacket.
In her ears was the faint, even breathing sound coming from the person above her. The breath hit her head, mixed with the same pleasant, light, fresh scent of laundry that came from this person.
The boy's breath hit her face, and Mu Ci felt a little dizzy. She struggled subconsciously, and then she realized that she was quietly hugging Yu Shi's waist, and she didn't know when the other party had put her in his arms, with one hand on her back, with a soothing meaning.
Mu Ci's heart tensed up and his face suddenly turned red for no apparent reason.
According to her usual sleeping posture, she could turn 360 degrees away from the head of the bed. This time it was probably caused by her bad sleeping posture.
Thinking of her own attitude yesterday and Yu Shi's cold attitude, Mu Ci's face turned red. She even wanted to curse herself to death. It was just too... too damn embarrassing.
Mu Ci felt extremely guilty at the moment. She looked up at Yu Shi who was still asleep, then lowered her head and tiptoed to gently withdraw her hand from the other's waist. However, what she never expected was that when he was about to succeed, the other party unconsciously pulled her into his arms, and the two of them returned to the ambiguous posture before.
Mu Ci: “…”
I really want to beat him up, but I have to pay for my own sins bit by bit.
Mu Ci let out a long breath, then continued to pull his hand back little by little, trying his best not to wake the other person.
Suddenly I felt that waking up first was not a good thing.
When Mu Ci finally pulled his hand back from Yu Shi's waist after several attempts, a certain part of Yu Shi suddenly reacted.
Mu Ci didn't react at first. About ten seconds later she realized what it was and almost jumped up.
Her body was completely frozen, and she dared not move at all.
Although he didn't jump up before, before his body froze, his right hand slapped Yu Shi in the face completely out of control.
Then, Yu Shi woke up.
Being awakened in such a violent, direct and sudden way, Yu Shi frowned and opened his eyes with dark pupils.
When Yu Shi saw clearly the person in front of him and his current condition, he froze.
At one point, Mu Ci even saw a hint of embarrassment, ignorance and shame in those originally gloomy eyes. In short, it was very complicated. To sum it up in one word, the other party wanted to die.
But for Mu Ci, facing this embarrassing and sudden situation, she wanted to die right there.
Yu Shi came to his senses belatedly, and finally pushed Mu Ci away from his arms. Then he lay on his side in the corner alone, looking as if he was doubting his life.
Mu Ci was stunned for a moment, and then she caught a glimpse of the other person's ear, which was red and almost bleeding. At this moment, the embarrassment in her heart had almost disappeared.
After all, I am a mature adult who has experienced so much of the world. Although this is the first time I have faced such a thing, I am not that pessimistic after thinking about it.
It's a physiological reaction, and it's human nature that we can't control.
And it also indirectly shows that the metaphor is very healthy.
Thinking of this, he no longer felt embarrassed. Mu Ci even spoke in a comforting tone to Yu Shi, who seemed to be stuck in a dead end in the corner, and said sincerely, "Well, Yu Shi, you don't have to feel too embarrassed. This phenomenon is very normal. Besides, it's normal for you to have a bad temper at your age. It means that there's nothing wrong with your body. In the future..."
Mu Ci was chattering on and on, but before she could finish her words of comfort, Yu Shi yelled at her, interrupting her.
"Shut up!"
His voice was very attractive, with a hint of hoarseness from just waking up. He said this angrily, his beautiful eyes filled with shame and anger.
Mu Ci was choked, but he was not angry.
He looked at the little Yu Miao next to him who was still sleeping soundly, and there was no movement from Mr. and Mrs. Lin. He took out his cell phone to check the time and saw that it was only five in the morning. Then he shrugged and lay back down to fall asleep.
At this moment, Yu Shi huddled in his own corner, falling into endless insomnia again.
Such an embarrassing thing happened in the morning. Mu Ci was heartless, but Yu Shi didn't know how to face Mu Ci. In short, his feelings were very complicated.
But at this moment, a phone call suddenly woke everyone up. An extremely urgent matter needed Lin's father and mother to go back and deal with it. Something very important had happened in the company, and the most serious possibility was debt and bankruptcy.
And at this moment, the system and tasks that had been silent for a long time responded accordingly.
[Ding——You must help the hero overcome his psychological shadow.]
There is no mention of rewards or punishments, so this mission is a main quest.
Before Mu Ci could say anything, the system immediately explained: "054, you may have to take a plane back this time. The male protagonist Yu Shi's parents had an accident while flying a plane, so he has a deep shadow on planes."
After the system was replenished, as expected, Father Lin had a sullen face. He called everyone over and briefly explained the arrangements in a serious manner.
Although they drove here on their own, this place is not closed. If they drive back, time will definitely be tight, so Dad Lin’s current plan is to find someone to park the car here, and the family will fly back first.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Lin had to go back, as they were worried about leaving the children here.
Mu Ci had been observing Yu Shi's reaction. As soon as Lin's father finished speaking, she saw his body stiffen visibly, his hands even trembled slightly, and his face turned pale for a moment, without a trace of blood.
It seems that I really can't bear it.
and……
Yu Shi's lips opened slightly, but they trembled slightly. In the end, he still didn't say anything. He just remained silent with a firm look in his eyes.
Mu Ci finally understood what he was thinking at the moment.
His stance and inner self-esteem prevented Yu Shi from saying anything to stop Lin's father's decision, but he also couldn't stay out of it, so no matter how timid he was about the word "plane", he would not abandon the people of the Lin family.
After a brief explanation, Father Lin began to deal with it. After packing up the things, everyone got in the car.
When they got in the car, Mu Ci could still clearly feel Yu Shi's fear, but Yu Miao was too young to feel it.
"054, you can seize this opportunity. In the plot, Lin's father and mother's company are fine. It's just to show Lin Muci's bullying of Yu Shi. The specific development is that the original owner Lin Muci couldn't stand Yu Shi's appearance, so he directly left him at the airport, which finally deepened his fear of airplanes."
The system suddenly gave a reminder.
Mu Ci listened to this and had his own thoughts in his mind.
When everything was packed and they were rushing to the airport, Mu Ci suddenly looked at Yu Shi and said coldly, "If you can't take the plane, don't force it! With your current condition, if something happens on the way and you are delayed again, what's the point?"
Her words exploded in Lin's mother's ears, and she then remembered what Yu Shi had experienced that year. Lin's father was buying tickets, and Lin's mother turned to look at Yu Shi and found that his condition was indeed very bad at the moment. His face was pale and it seemed that he might faint at any time.
She frowned, a little worried, but the company's affairs were urgent. When Lin's mother was hesitating about how to deal with it, Mu Ci said directly: "Leave him here, he doesn't have to go back."
Yu Shi's face, which was already pale to begin with, turned even paler at this moment. His eyes were terribly gloomy, and the emotions that he was suppressing almost crushed him. It felt as if something was pulling at his heart, and his breathing almost stopped.
At this moment, he heard the man next to him say casually, "I'll stay too."
The voice that came out of his mouth was calm and controlled.
Yu Shi's pupils shrank and he raised his eyes to look over.
The author has something to say: There are some long chapters today to make up for yesterday's. I'm sorry for you. I had something to do yesterday and I went out. In the evening, my dad accidentally scalded his leg with hot water and asked the doctor to treat him. I'm sorry that I didn't have time to update. You can hit me, um.
