Chapter 133: Chapter 133: Truly Worthy of You, Xie Xiao

Xie Xiao originally thought Luo Yanran said she could do it because she wanted to save face, after all, it's quite normal for a young girl to feel embarrassed.But it wasn't until they actually started climbing that he realized she really could handle it.

Although not fast, she didn't seem to be in much discomfort.

Of course, if he had to say, one could tell her posture wasn't quite natural.

But overall, there was no major issue.

Luo Yanran and Liu Ou walked hand in hand in front.

Xie Xiao and Lin Yu, carrying water and other miscellaneous items, followed behind.

Lin Yu suddenly turned to look at Xie Xiao, as if he had something to say but hesitated.

After a few glances, Xie Xiao couldn't hold back and spoke up, "Why don't you just say it?"

Lin Yu blurted out, "Are you not up to it?" Tilting his chin, he gestured Xie Xiao to look ahead, "Look at senior Luo..."

Xie Xiao felt hugely insulted.

But it was hard to explain whether he was up to it!

She had cried last night, yet now she indeed seemed fine.

Xie Xiao let out a breath, "It's hard to explain, and you probably wouldn't believe me if I did, but I am capable, really."

Lin Yu drew out his "Oh~" in a long, drawn-out tone.

He clapped Xie Xiao's shoulder, "Don't worry, Xiao Xiao~"

His voice dripped with mischief, and Xie Xiao really wanted to punch him.

At this moment, Liu Ou shared Lin Yu's skepticism.

She glanced at her bestie and quietly asked, "Didn't you guys... last night?"

Luo Yanran's face went red as she whispered, "We did."

"Then you look..." Liu Ou's eyes widened in shock, "Is Xie Xiao not up to it?"

Luo Yanran quickly reached out to cover her mouth and then sneakily glanced back.

Fortunately, they weren't too close, but she got caught sneaking a look.

Xie Xiao raised his eyebrows at her, his gaze questioning, "What's up?"

Luo Yanran smiled at him and quickly turned back around.

Then she let go of Liu Ou's mouth, "No! I actually do feel a bit uncomfortable still."

She felt somewhat awkward talking about this topic, but since it was Liu Ou, it wasn't entirely unapproachable.

Her voice grew even lower, "But compared to the pain from dancing when I was younger, it really isn't unbearable."

She smiled, "When I first started dancing, I couldn't get out of bed for days, it was so painful."

Liu Ou took a few more glances at her as she brought up dancing on her own initiative.

Luo Yanran usually did not talk about dancing, nor would she join in if others talked about it, let alone bring it up herself.

Luo Luo really has changed a lot.

She smiled, "Well, that's good, after all, it concerns the happiness of the rest of your life. I was really a bit worried, by the way, tell me about..."

The two girls whispered amongst themselves, and from behind, their ears were visibly red.

Xie Xiao felt like he could guess the topic of their discussion.

Inside, he couldn't help but mull over, did his performance last night count as good?

Hard to say, since it was his first time too...

But seeing Ranran not in too much discomfort, it should be quite alright, shouldn't it?

Wasn't too reckless?

The four of them reached the camping site mentioned by the three university students after only a thirty-minute walk. Searᴄh the NovelFire.net* website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Lin Yu didn't understand, "Wait, why would they set up a camping site so close to the village? Isn't that a waste?"

Liu Ou laughed, "Can't help it. If so much budget is allocated, we need to find ways to spend it all, otherwise, there'll be none next year."

That sounded experienced.

Liu Ou added, "I've heard my parents talk on the phone about this stuff, so I understand a little."

The group didn't dwell on this topic and found a spot to set up the tent they had bought just for fun.

But when they actually unfolded it, Xie Xiao wanted to laugh, "Will others think we're fools? Who sets up a tent in the middle of the day?"

"You talk as if this campsite was not made for pitching tents and resting," Lin Yu said. "No matter what others say, as long as we're happy, that's what counts."

Luo Yanran also laughed, "Right, long live happiness, right?"

Everyone remembered the fun they'd had playing in the water the day before and started giggling again.

It seemed quite normal to do something silly at their age.

After all, to retain some vibrant memories in youth is already quite a feat.

The campsite was very clean; it seemed not many people had come here to camp.

They looked more like they had come here for a picnic.

Fortunately, the place was indeed out of the sun's reach, just under the shade of trees.

The four spread out a picnic blanket and sat on it, gazing at the sea of flowers at the foot of the mountain.

The villagers here all had some flower fields.

It was said that different flowers were planted in different seasons and it looked really beautiful to see the swathes of color from high above.

Nobody said a word; they just sat there watching the far-off blue skies and white clouds, the sea of colorful flowers below, dazzled by the beauty.

Even though the sun was still intense, the occasional breeze seemed to alleviate the heat of the harsh summer.

Xie Xiao gently fanned Luo Yanran, concerned she might get too hot or be bitten by mosquitoes.

Luo Yanran smiled at him, her lips a bit pale.

Xie Xiao felt a bit of heartache, guessing she was still somewhat uncomfortable.

She had also been walking a bit differently than before.

He touched her nose gently and said, "Stubborn."

His voice was very soft, but since they were sitting close to each other, it was still audible.

But still, nobody spoke.

Luo Yanran, a bit embarrassed, took his finger and held his hand gently in hers.

She shook it lightly, as if to apologize.

Xie Xiao sighed and did not say anything more.

The four of them just sat there and started chatting.

It was good that they had also brought along water and some snacks.

As they chatted, Lin Yu naturally brought up Zhou Mianmian and Yan Shi's marriage.

Luo Yanran reflexively glanced at Xie Xiao, only to see him earnestly peeling an apple.

Feeling her gaze, he did not even look up and said, "Hold on, want me to cut it into a little bunny for you?"

Luo Yanran suddenly laughed, "Sure."

Liu Ou and Lin Yu across from them had faces full of cannot-copewith-this.

Liu Ou said, "Should we sit a bit further away?"

Lin Yu nodded, "We should, we shouldn't be here, we should be at the foot of the mountain."

Xie Xiao knew his girlfriend was shy; he looked up at them and said, "That's quite enough. Can you tuck food into your mouths to stop talking?"

"So fierce!"

"I'm only gentle to my girlfriend~"

Their teasing banter made Luo Yanran's face turn bright red.

After the teasing, Liu Ou became curious, "How are they getting married if they are underage?"

"I heard they're just having a banquet, not registering yet. I heard quite a few classmates got invited, seems like it's sometime in July," Lin Yu wasn't very sure, "Anyway, I'm not very close to them, so I'm not too sure." Experience exclusive tales on M-V-L

"It's sometime in July, Yan Shi also sent me a message, asking me to go," Xie Xiao spoke slowly at this point, placing a carefully cut bunny-shaped apple slice to Luo Yanran's mouth.

The three of them had expressions of utter confusion.

Luo Yanran was about to say something, but found a little bunny stuck in her mouth.

Lin Yu cursed in disbelief, "Is he sick or what?"

"What are you going to say?" Liu Ou knew what her friend wanted to ask, so she just blurted it out.

Xie Xiao looked at them and said as a matter of fact, "Not replying, of course. I definitely won't go. We're not that close, and attending would mean giving a cash gift. Besides, I surely won't invite them to my wedding in the future, so why should I lose out on the money? No way."

The three of them were baffled.

In the end, Lin Yu raised his thumb, "Typical of you."
