"Lu Qing, you and Chen Jing are cousins, aren't you worried about her?"
Lin Qiqi and Chen Jing used to be good friends, but after Chen Jing instigated her to do something wrong and was rebuked by Qin Xuan, she broke up with Chen Jing.
However, she had met Lu Qing before and exchanged greetings occasionally.
Lu Qing shook his head matter-of-factly, "What's there to worry about? I should thank that big shot, because he made me no longer afraid of being controlled by my cousin."
Qin Xuan glanced at Lu Qing out of the corner of his eye, and Lu Qing immediately changed his tune.
“The company hasn’t gone bankrupt, she can still survive, there’s no need for this.”
Ye Zhizhou rummaged through the rice in her bowl. Although Chen Jing's family was in dire straits, she felt no sympathy whatsoever.
"That's true. The Chen Group is definitely better than our family." Lin Qiqi sighed.
As they were talking, Lu Qing saw Chen Jing getting her food not far away. He gave Lin Qiqi a look, and Lin Qiqi turned around, then quickly turned back and shut her mouth.
Seeing the two's actions, Ye Zhizhou couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that although Chen Jingren was about to leave, her influence was still there.
"How about we go out this weekend?" Lu Qing suddenly suggested halfway through the meal.
Ye Zhizhou glanced at Qin Xuan and noticed that Qin Xuan was also looking at her.
"Where are we going? We can't leave the city, otherwise we'll come back too late and won't be able to finish our homework," Lin Qiqi asked first.
Lu Qing said with a hint of helplessness, "I didn't ask you, but we don't seem to know each other very well, do we?"
Lin Qiqi ate with relish, "We've met several times already, so we're pretty familiar with each other, aren't we?"
Ye Zhizhou found it quite amusing to watch the two bicker. Looking at the big boss Qin across from her, who remained expressionless and unperturbed, she seriously suspected that Qin Xuan must have grown up drinking dew to be so detached from worldly affairs.
"Let's go to the hot springs, that's settled!"
Lin Qiqi and Lu Qing went from being complete strangers to agreeing on where to go for fun in just a short while.
"And you two?" They both looked at Ye Zhizhou and Qin Xuan.
Ye Zhizhou finished the last bite of his meal. "Okay, when?"
Studying is so hard, it's good to relax in a hot spring occasionally. It helps to loosen up your muscles and bones, so you don't get a bunch of illnesses before you even reach middle age.
"We'll leave Saturday morning and be back the same day." After saying that, Lu Qing looked at Qin Xuan, "Qin Xuan, don't you want to go?"
Qin Xuan paused for a moment while holding the chopsticks, then replied, "You can go."
Lu Qing looked surprised. He had known Qin Xuan for so long, but he had never asked Qin Xuan out on a weekend.
Upon careful consideration, he realized that it wasn't that his friendship with Qin Xuan had deepened, but rather because of Ye Zhizhou.
On Saturday morning, Zhang Ma knew that Ye Zhizhou was going to a hot spring, so she prepared everything Ye Zhizhou needed.
Ye Zhizhou stared into thought as she looked at the large bag of things. If she hadn't only been away for two days, she would have almost thought she was going back to her hometown for the Chinese New Year.
"Aunt Zhang, are all these things... useful? I'll only be gone for two days."
Aunt Zhang was very serious. "Of course you'll need them. An umbrella and a water cup are essential. You can't drink cold water when you're thirsty outside; hot water is good for your health."
Ye Zhizhou didn't refute, afraid that if she asked any more questions, Zhang Ma would explain the uses of everything to her.
As soon as the doorbell rang, Ye Zhizhou hurriedly opened the door and rushed out.
"Sister Zhou, we're only going out for two days, is it really necessary to bring so much stuff?" Lu Qing looked at Ye Zhizhou's large suitcase.
Ye Zhizhou laughed awkwardly, "What do you know? This isn't ordinary luggage; it's love."
Lu Qing silently gave her a thumbs up, "Awesome."
Qin Xuan helped Ye Zhizhou put his suitcase in the trunk of the car. Since they were both minors and could not drive, the Ye family's driver took them.
Seeing Qin Xuan doing it himself, the driver felt embarrassed and said, "Young Master Qin, I can do it."
Qin Xuan said calmly, "No need, it's already placed there."
Seeing that Qin Xuan's expression was normal and he didn't seem angry, the driver got into the car, locked the doors, and drove off.
The car was spacious, so the four of them simply sat in the back.
"If we have a great time today, we can come back tomorrow, okay?" Lu Qing was playful and seemed exceptionally lively compared to Qin Xuan's dullness.
Lin Qiqi took out snacks from her bag and gave them to Ye Zhizhou and Lu Qing, but not to Qin Xuan. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but that she didn't dare.
Ye Zhizhou immediately saw through Lin Qiqi's thoughts, handed his own portion to Qin Xuan, and then asked Lin Qiqi for another portion.
"If we're going to stay overnight there, I need to tell my mom in advance, otherwise she'll worry," Lin Qiqi said, taking out her phone to send a message to her mother.
Lu Qing curled his lip, "You girls are such a hassle."
Ye Zhizhou looked at him, about to retort, when Qin Xuan, who was sitting next to Lu Qing, suddenly stretched and accidentally hit Lu Qing on the back of the head.
"Sorry, my arms are too long." Qin Xuan said calmly.
Lu Qing looked at him with a wronged expression, "It's okay, I'm stubborn."
Ye Zhizhou: ? ? ?
I've never seen the word "stubborn" used in such a way.
After being subtly provoked by Qin Xuan, Lu Qing became more obedient and spoke to Lin Qiqi much more politely. Lin Qiqi glanced gratefully at Ye Zhizhou, thinking to herself, "This is probably what they call 'love me, love my dog,' and I'm so envious."
The car drove very fast. Although it was the weekend, the hot spring that Lu Qing chose was a bit more upscale, so the traffic wasn't too bad. We arrived at the hot spring in about an hour.
This hot spring is located at the foot of one of the best mountains in Ning City, surrounded by fresh air, lush trees, and the occasional chirping of birds in the forest.
In addition to the existing hot springs, there are also entertainment facilities such as a board game room, a movie room, and a mahjong room.
