Chapter 116 Awakening, Leaving
Chapter 116 Awakening, Leaving
Ah this...
Why is it snowing so soon?
The snow is really thick!
Then a gust of cold wind blew by, making Bai Fengrui shiver. "Wow, it's so cold!" Bai Fengrui tightened his clothes.
Qin Ke turned to look at him: "Awake? Pack your things, let's go."
Shen Ruci stepped into the cave and replied, "I'll go get my backpack. You two hurry up, while the snow is light now. It will be difficult to get back if it snows heavily later."
Upon hearing this, Qin Ke and Bai Fengrui quickly went to get their backpacks.
Bai Yujin raised an eyebrow and decisively went to get her backpack.
He carried Xuan Shuang away.
Just as the four people and one cat were about to leave, someone called them back.
Upon hearing the commotion, Shen Qingqi saw the four people about to leave and hurriedly called out to Shen Ruci, "Ruci, where are you going?"
He shouted out instinctively.
Before long, the others also woke up.
He looked up, still half-asleep, at the scene before him.
When Shen Ruci heard his cousin calling him, he had no choice but to stop and turn to Shen Qingqi, saying, "We have to go back now. We've found what we were looking for. By the way, it's snowing outside, so you'd better be careful."
I'm afraid that adventure variety shows won't last long.
The weather is terrible right now.
Hearing Shen Ruci say this, Shen Qingqi was slightly surprised.
It's snowing outside? How could that be?
Shen Qingqi quickly stood up and said, "If you're going back, be careful on the way."
He knew his cousin wouldn't lie to him.
Then it must be snowing outside.
Shen Ruci nodded: "Okay, we'll be going now. Brother, please be careful."
He turned to Qin Ke's side and said to Bai Yujin, "Let's go, or it might be too late."
Bai Yujin raised an eyebrow at him and replied, "Yes, let's hurry up and go, we can't delay any longer."
He then slung his travel backpack over his shoulder, adjusted the straps, and spoke to the others.
The four of them walked back the way they came.
Shen Qingqi just watched them leave.
Now that all the tasks are completed, it's time to go back.
You can't just stop people from going back, can you?
Shen Qingqi lowered his eyes and pursed his lips, remaining silent.
Zhou Bin watched them leave without saying anything, but glanced at the staff on the other side and Qin Zhao, without looking at Cheng Qingrou.
Looking at her was useless, so Zhou Bin glanced at Shen Qingqi again.
Raising her eyebrows, she tentatively asked Shen Qingqi, "Qingqi, do you think we should leave now, or wait until the snow melts?"
Upon hearing his question, Shen Qingqi stood up, stretched his body, and said, "Let's go now. Who knows how long we'll have to wait for the snow to melt."
After saying that, Shen Qingqi rubbed his neck.
He squatted down, took out a vacuum-sealed bag from his backpack containing a cotton-padded coat. He opened the bag, took out the coat, put it on, and then slowly put the bag back into his backpack.
Then, he yawned.
He glanced at the others indifferently.
Luo Zhaojun also noticed that his expression was off.
Get up quickly; you absolutely mustn't provoke him.
God knows how formidable he is.
Wen Jianglin stood up silently, his face slightly cold, and said indifferently, "Then let's listen to Shen Qingqi and leave now."
After saying that, Wen Jianglin tightened his clothes, turned and left. The others watched his departing figure and quickly followed.
Shen Qingqi raised an eyebrow and followed at a leisurely pace.
Qin Zhao and Chen Yeling followed in silence.
Chen Yeling could tell that Qin Zhao had changed.
She didn't ask anything, but she could vaguely guess what had happened to her. Qin Zhao was usually very carefree and overly lively.
This is enough to attract her to cause trouble.
Chen Yeling gazed at Cheng Qingrou with a deep, melancholy look.
"Sister Ling, let's go!"
Jiang Linghan saw the person who had stopped behind him.
He is also trying to change himself.
He wanted to change himself so that he wouldn't be the same person he used to be.
Once you step out, there's a chance you can become friends with Qin Ke again, even best friends!
Certainly possible!
Even if we can't be together, it's enough to silently protect each other.
For the Jiang family, having only the eldest brother to carry on the family line is enough.
Brother Jiang: "Having you as my younger brother is the greatest honor of my life!"
Chen Yeling heard Jiang Linghan call her name.
She came to her senses and saw Qin Zhao still waiting for her beside her, along with Jiang Linghan. The three of them were ready. Chen Yeling smiled and said, "Coming right now, Qin Zhao, let's go! From now on, the three of us are friends. Jiang Linghan, what do you say?"
Jiang Linghan smiled and looked at the two of them with a smile.
Chen Yeling smiled and said, "Okay, Qin Zhao, my name is Jiang Linghan, let's get to know each other again!"
Qin Zhao was somewhat dazed as she looked at the scene before her.
She had been feeling a bit lost, but now she gradually calmed down and looked up at Jiang Linghan and Chen Yeling, who was encouraging her.
Chen Yeling genuinely hoped that Qin Zhao would step forward.
Don't insist on being the little princess of the Qin family.
That would cost her her life.
Why should I be the little princess of the Qin family?
There's really no need for that.
Qin Zhao seemed to have figured something out.
A bright smile appeared on her lips, her gaze becoming clearer as she looked at Jiang Linghan in front of her and said with a smile, "Hello, Jiang Linghan, my name is Qin Zhao, and you, Chen Yeling, Sister Ling, my name is Qin Zhao."
"Sister Ling, thank you so much. I never understood what they meant. You've helped me time and time again, only to disappoint me. I'm so sorry."
I was wrong before, terribly wrong.
Now I've figured it out. I just need to be myself. I'm not going to be the Qin family's little princess anymore! They just wanted to spoil me rotten; it's like they're trying to kill me with pampering.
They want what my mother left me, and the inheritance from my seventh grandfather. What's mine is mine, and no one can take it away.
She looked up at Jiang Linghan and said, "From now on, we're friends. Sister Ling, you're my friend too."
Qin Zhao, Jiang Linghan, and Chen Yeling exchanged a smile.
A hint of relief flashed in Chen Yeling's eyes.
Qin Zhao has already been brave enough to take this step.
Just be yourself.
Chen Yeling reached out and patted Qin Zhao's hand.
She looked at the girl in front of her and said softly, "From now on, I'll be here, and Jiang Linghan will be here too. We're all friends. Put finding a partner aside for now and focus on your career. It's not too late to find someone later."
Qin Zhao replied gently, "Mm."
Having seen through it all, I guess I've come to understand it completely.
When it comes to finding a partner, she says she doesn't want to anymore.
Being alone is just fine, really.
Jiang Linghan looked at them and said with a smile, "Let's go."
The three of them walked quickly forward.
Gradually, they caught up with Shen Qingqi and the others.
Soon, the group walked away into the distance.
……
...
Bai Yujin and the others trudged through the snow, walking step by step toward the camp. It took them two days to reach the camp, and in the end, they still hadn't arrived.
But they unintentionally stumbled upon a deep bamboo forest.
Here, we first found a place to rest temporarily.
It happened during the break time.
Bai Yujin then had a chance encounter with a panda.
When Bai Yujin saw the panda, she was slightly surprised. She wondered why the panda was out. Could it be that the panda was out looking for food?
