Chapter 113 Entering the Mountains (2/2)



Sheng Yi thought about it and agreed.

"Sure, the weather's fine anyway, it won't spoil even if we leave it for a few more days. I'll make some more for you before I leave."

"Okay, okay, thank you, Brother Sheng Yi!"

"You're welcome. I'll be going now. You should get some sleep."

After seeing him off, Zhu Qinghao quickly washed up and went to bed. She originally thought she would toss and turn and not be able to sleep that night, but she didn't expect to close her eyes without realizing it.

When I opened my eyes again, I found that it was already past 7 a.m. the next day.

Thinking of her promise to Sheng Yi, she unusually didn't dawdle and got up quickly, dressed, and made breakfast.

Fortunately, she had the foresight to save a small bowl of vegetables for herself last night, which she then used to cook noodles again.

This time it wasn't because she was lazy; she genuinely thought it was delicious and wanted to eat it again.

Not long after she finished breakfast, Sheng Yi arrived as promised.

For some reason, Zhu Qinghao felt that he seemed to be in a very good mood today, and he couldn't suppress the smile on his lips.

But when he saw Zhu Qinghao's attire, he frowned slightly, and the next second he asked in as gentle a tone as possible:

"Aren't you dressed too lightly? It's very cold up in the mountains."

"Huh? I think I'm wearing quite a lot."

As Zhu Qinghao spoke, she also looked at her own clothes. She was wearing a thick cotton coat and thick cotton pants, and even two pairs of thick socks inside her rain boots.

So at this moment, she felt not cold at all, but rather a little hot.

Sheng Yi was a little worried, because he always remembered that Zhu Qinghao was not in good health, and it would not be good if she caught a cold.

Zhu Qinghao also saw the worry in his eyes and spoke again.

"I'm really not cold, Sheng Yi. Don't worry, I can take care of myself. I feel a little warm right now."

Even after hearing her say that, Sheng Yi still didn't completely believe her. Finally, he reached out and touched the slight sweat in her palm, and only then did he believe that she really wasn't cold.

Afterwards, Sheng Yi put a straw hat on her, tied her trouser legs, and even brought her a raincoat just in case.

After everything was ready, the two of them went into the mountains together.

Zhu Qinghao had been happily going out, but as she walked, she felt increasingly uneasy.

Because Sheng Yi was really slow, and it seemed that he was taking the easy but roundabout routes to accommodate her.

Zhu Qinghao originally thought that as long as she increased her speed, Sheng Yi would realize that he could keep up and would no longer be so slow, but she did not expect that he would still be so slow.

After more than half an hour, Zhu Qinghao finally lost her temper and exploded on the spot.

"Brother Sheng Yi, you don't usually take this long to climb mountains, do you?"

Sheng Yi paused for a moment, then continued walking forward as if nothing had happened.

"Not necessarily. It depends on where you're going. Some roads are difficult to travel, so it can be even slower."

Zhu Qing glared at him angrily, her face full of disbelief.

"Hmph, you're just kidding me. You didn't actually plan to take me into the mountains, did you? You just want to find a random spot on the mountainside, take me for a stroll, and then come back?"

Sheng Yi originally did have that intention, but he didn't expect Zhu Qing to see through it.

However, he had excellent mental fortitude and didn't show it on his face.

"No, why would you think that? I've already been to a few other places a couple of days ago, and now I'm going to take you to a new place."
