Fortunately, the three of them had made sufficient preparations before heading up the mountain.
However, they had only prepared a single night's worth of things. If they still gained nothing tomorrow, they would have no choice but to return. After all, they were all at school, and would have to return to school on Monday the day after tomorrow.
Dong Xiaoxiao's heart palpitated as she thought about the last time she came to the foot of the mountain. It seemed unreal to be in peace.
They only brought one tent with them. After they were done, Lin Lin and Ling An went in and chatted.
Dong Xiaoxiao had moved far away the moment they heard their voices. She wanted to give the couple some privacy …
This outsider was too unsightly here, wasn't she?
Dong Xiaoxiao was bored after sitting for so long, so she went to talk to Ye Hanyi.
"Ah …" "The Crane Forest has finally been pestered by someone. He probably won't come back to find me in the future, but will stay with Ling An. I can finally free myself."
She remembered that the Crane Forest had not sent her home yesterday, and she was sure that he had a new girlfriend.
However, she didn't expect that in just seven short days, she would have a girlfriend in the Crane Forest. This was truly surprising!
Ye Hanyi asked her indifferently, "Are you sure he won't come looking for you in the future?"
Dong Xiaoxiao snickered. "With Ling An around, he wouldn't dare to come and find me."
Ye Hanyi curled his lips and did not answer.
Dong Xiaoxiao was bored. She observed the night scenery of the mountain.
However, it was a lot easier for her to stay by herself. Thinking that the Crane Forest wouldn't look for her again, she felt a little sad — sad that their friendship might come to an end, that Ling An didn't seem to be someone to be trifled with.
However, most of it was guilt. After all … She owed too much to the Crane Forest. She would have to think about how to repay it in the future.
However, weren't they talking for too long? She had been waiting here for so long, why wasn't she done yet?
Dong Xiaoxiao was sitting high up in the sky, bored. Suddenly, she noticed a shadow not far from her from the corner of her eyes. Her eyes widened.
Inside the tent, the Crane Forest was talking to Ling An.
This wasn't a normal conversation. To be more accurate, it was an argument …
The crane Lin said to Ling An, "Aunt, why are you pretending to be my girlfriend?" It's very awkward for me, you know! "
Ling An seemed very calm, but she didn't have her arrogant attitude during the day and revealed a gentle and pleasant temperament. "I just wanted to see what this girl was like. She actually made you fall for her. I didn't want to go back home for a long time."
The Crane Forest continued to collapse. "She didn't want to accept me to begin with, and now that you've helped me, I feel like I'm going to die!" Look at her eyes during the day, I don't mind who I'm with at all! "
Ling An said indifferently, "But if that's the case, why do you still like her? Do you want her to be your spare tire? "Let me tell you, most of the girls' liking for a person is determined from the beginning. If you like her, then you like her; a friend is a friend. Since you chose to be her friend from the very beginning, then don't dream of taking a step further."
Lin paused, "How do you know we've always been friends? Who knows, maybe in the future …"
Ling An interrupted him, "Maybe you said that you still want it?" What's more, in the future? There will be too many variables in the future. Furthermore, that girl is very strange, so it shouldn't be suitable for you to interact with other people these days. If you touch her like this, something will happen to you sooner or later! "
He Lin was silent for a long time before he muttered, "I know the weird secret about her, but I really like her …" In this world, those that can be easily obtained are nothing. Those that can't be obtained must be forced. I wanted to force it, but she never gave me the chance … "
Ling An frowned and sighed. "Since you know you won't have another chance, then learn to give up …"
The Crane Forest fell silent again, saying nothing.
Actually, when Ling An said she was his girlfriend this morning, he didn't refute because he wanted to see Dong Xiaoxiao's reaction.
He could still clearly remember her happiness at that moment, as well as the excitement that she repeatedly signalled to him afterwards … Therefore, he understood that she really didn't like him at all. She didn't care whether he had a girlfriend or not. She even had something better, like jealousy … Impossible.
As a result, the tent quieted down.
Just when Ling An wanted to get up and call Dong Xiaoxiao in, a sharp scream suddenly came from outside!
It was Xiaoxiao's voice!
The Crane Forest rushed out of the tent as soon as he heard the voice. Seeing the black shadow fighting with Dong Xiaoxiao, they hurried to help.
Ling An didn't follow but raised his head and carefully looked around.
She could sense that there was a dangerous aura in the surroundings. This aura was much stronger than the one that was fighting them. However, it did not approach them. Instead, it was watching from afar.
Ling An could even feel its dry eyes staring at her. She immediately took off the whip that had been wrapped around her waist, ready to fight.
However, the even more dangerous existence didn't seem to have any intention of approaching. It only watched as the two fought, and even after seeing the black figure being defeated, it didn't seem to have any dissatisfaction, and quickly retreated.
At this moment, both Hei Lin and Dong Xiaoxiao were sitting on the ground. They looked at the black monkey's body as if they were drained of energy and were breathing heavily.
However, they didn't look at this black monkey for long. When Ling An walked over, the crane suddenly stopped breathing heavily and said to Ling An, "It wasn't attracted, could it be that it saw through our plan?"
Ling An also had the same expression. "It's very likely so, but this thing is much more difficult than we thought. If we can't lure it into this array, the three of us definitely won't be able to beat it."
Dong Xiaoxiao was shocked by the sudden change. She panted for a moment before saying, "Wait, array formation?" You guys even set up a formation in advance? How come I didn't know? "
Lin Lin coughed and explained the formation he and Ling An had set up when they set up the tent. The purpose was to lure that thing in.
However, he didn't expect that thing to be so vigilant, as if it had sensed it in advance. It actually held back and didn't move closer.
"As long as it is lured over, we have a ninety percent chance of taming it. What a pity, what a pity …"
The one who said this wasn't Crane Lin, but Ling An. He Lin turned his back to her in guilt and didn't say anything.
