Xu Zhaozhao was so startled by the sudden comment that she almost threw her phone away.
No, she didn't post any photos of herself. How did this person know?
All the photos she posts are of scenery and solo shots of fish.
It must be a coincidence, hmm.
But as the coincidences piled up, Xu Zhaozhao finally realized something was wrong.
[Hey Zhao, confess and you'll be treated leniently, resist and you'll be punished severely!! Who's that handsome guy next to you?!]
[Aww, my baby Yuyu is so handsome! And the guy next to Sister Zhao isn't bad-looking either, could he be Yuyu's dad?]
[Which CEO came to celebrate his son's birthday? (Crying uncontrollably)]
Why are you both wearing masks?! You're treating us netizens like complete outsiders!
[It's over... The "moon-gazing" couple's relationship has collapsed online...]
...
? ? ?
Three question marks popped into Xu Zhaozhao's mind in a row, and she quickly went to go through the pictures she had sent out again.
Everything was normal until the last photo...
In her excitement, she switched her phone to the front-facing camera, which captured half of her and Gu Qingyan's faces very clearly.
Xu Zhaozhao actually took a screenshot when she saw this part.
But she didn't take it seriously...
How did I manage to post this photo?!
I really want to die. Right now, I just want to find a hole and bury myself.
Both of them were wearing masks, but because Xu Zhaozhao was holding the phone to her side, Gu Qingyan's face was only captured on the half covered by the mask.
The camera tilted slightly downwards, capturing exactly the two holding hands...
Is it too late to delete my Weibo posts now?
Xu Zhaozhao took a few deep breaths.
The moment the thought crossed her mind, the comments section taught her a lesson.
[Save this. If Sister Zhao doesn't give me an explanation today, I'm going to vent my anger in the comments section!]
[This profile really looks like Yu Yu! I think it's definitely Yu Yu's dad.]
[So Sister Zhao is already married... Who understands? Even though Yu Yu is Sister Zhao's biological son, I still think Sister Zhao shouldn't be married [crying]]
[Who stole my good cabbage? tt]
...
Well, it's too late to delete the Weibo post now.
Xu Zhaozhao boldly predicted that this photo would appear on the trending searches in twenty minutes.
"It's already been sent, so I'm not angry."
Gu Qingyan noticed her movement and looked at her with a smile, "I'm not that shameful."
As his hand was held tighter, Xu Zhaozhao inexplicably sensed a hint of grievance in his tone.
It's true that it can't be deleted anymore.
Xu Zhaozhao turned off her phone screen, refusing to look at the infuriating comment section, and turned to Gu Qingyan.
"Didn't I ask you to watch the children?"
Her eyes searched anxiously for the children. "Why are you staring at me?"
Gu Qingyan stood up first, and Xu Zhaozhao followed suit. "Is it possible that there is something called peripheral vision?"
...
Thank you for the invitation.
I know.
Xu Zhaozhao gritted her teeth in anger, "Where are the children now?"
"We have to leave quickly, otherwise we might get trampled to death if the tourists realize what's happening."
Although Xu Zhaozhao exaggerated a bit, she really didn't want to face the scene of being surrounded by a crowd.
"They went to the wishing tree."
Gu Qingyan took her hand and led her forward, saying, "Go and call them home."
Xu Zhaozhao has adapted now, occasionally looking up at the road, but most of the time, she still relies on Gu Qingyan to lead the way.
There's a famous spot in this themed ball that Xu Zhaozhao just saw on the information board on the road.
If you can't look at these "ghosts" on the road, you'll take a second look at the small details in other places.
There is no Meng Po in the River of Oblivion, but there is a wishing tree where tourists can hang their wishes on it.
Beyond the wishing tree lies an exit.
As the two drew closer to the wishing tree, Xu Zhaozhao spotted Xiao Kai under the banyan tree; he was engrossed in writing something on the table.
There were a few other people around, all focused on the table in front of them.
Xu Zhaozhao walked over and watched as Xiao Kai took a pen and wrote crooked words on a wishing slip.
It's roughly possible to tell, because Xu Zhaozhao's handwriting isn't very good either, so she can still understand it.
Happy birthday, Fish Brother! May you be happy every day.
Besides these words, there is a fish drawn on top and a cake drawn below.
Xu Zhaozhao took out her phone and took a picture before Xiao Kai handed it to a staff member, who then hung it on the wishing tree.
Because there were too many tourists, hanging the branches themselves would have stripped the banyan tree bare, so the staff started hanging them instead.
Xu Zhaozhao took another photo of the wishing slips hanging on the tree.
Xu Zhaozhao looked around the banyan tree but didn't see Gu Yulin.
He looked down at Xiao Kai and asked, "Xiao Kai, where's Brother Yu Yu?"
"Huh? Where's Brother Yuyu?"
Xiao Kai was so engrossed in writing that he turned around to look for Gu Yulin, clearly unaware that Gu Yulin had left his side at some point.
He was as anxious as a little spinning top.
Xu Zhaozhao chuckled softly and then asked Gu Qingyan, "Where's Yuyu?"
She had an inexplicable trust in Gu Qingyan.
He always does what he promises.
Gu Qingyan tugged at her hand, gesturing for her to look in a certain direction, where a plaque read "Land God Temple".
There were also a few people queuing up, waiting to go in.
Xu Zhaozhao took Xiao Kai's hand, and the three of them walked together in that direction.
What kind of place is this?
As she got closer, Xu Zhaozhao finally saw it clearly.
It was a place resembling a temple, with a fence at the entrance and two staff members guarding the outside.
The description is written on it.
The local earth god temple—you can offer incense to the local earth god. Only two people are allowed in at a time. Please queue up.
Xu Zhaozhao sighed again, "With so many tourists, anywhere can become a tourist attraction. Even the local earth god temple here has long queues to get in."
"Yu Yu just went inside."
Gu Qingyan said, "He went in with a little boy."
"Little boy?"
Xu Zhaozhao repeated the three words, somewhat puzzled.
It's strange enough that Yu Yu came to offer incense, but why is there an even stranger little boy with him?
She glanced at Gu Qingyan again.
It's true, birds of a feather flock together.
Unable to figure it out, Xu Zhaozhao temporarily put aside her thoughts.
He pulled the two of them to sit down and waited for Gu Yulin to come out.
Inside the local temple.
Gu Yulin had just taken three incense sticks from the side when the person in the black robe next to him spoke up.
"Do you want to make a wish?"
The voice sounded familiar. Gu Yulin stopped what he was doing and turned to look at him.
The other person was taller than him, wore a black robe, and had a mask covering his face from head to toe.
Only his eyes were visible.
Gu Yulin didn't recognize him at first, but the other party asked to come in with him.
Two people could enter at a time, and since the Earth God belonged to everyone, he didn't refuse out of politeness.
Based on the voice and those eyes, Gu Yulin was basically certain who it was.
His brows furrowed slightly, a hint of impatience in his eyes. "Yin Qi, what are you doing here?"
