It was a little after 3 p. m. the following afternoon.
The group arrived at a relaxing resort hotel.
"Wow, Chichi, the director is amazing! He actually found a place like this for camping and barbecuing!" Chen Shiyu put the bag he was carrying into the locker.
This relaxing guesthouse is nestled in the shade of a mountain, with cool, fresh air, making it perfect for young people to enjoy weekends, barbecues, and games.
Chi Yining smiled slightly and nodded slowly, "Yes."
Chen Shiyu turned his head and found that Chichi had finally smiled at him again! Although the curve of his lips was very small, he was so happy that he wanted to rush over and hug him again!
Noticing that Yan Guiyun was constantly on guard beside Chichi, Chen Shiyu had no choice but to give up.
How could Yan Guiyun keep such a close watch on things! It's infuriating!
He also wanted to hold hands with Chichi Chichi and hug her.
"Alright, guests, the ingredients are ready. You can do the rest yourselves. We're off to do team building!" Staff member Yang Fang announced over a megaphone.
Chi Yining realized that the staff member was so happy he was about to run away.
"Let's go, Xiao Yi." Yan Guiyun pulled him up and walked outside.
Chen Shiyu followed.
Meanwhile, Gu Chengyuan and Shao Chongsi were still in the other storage room.
Seeing Gu Chengyuan's gloomy appearance, Shao Chongsi felt inexplicably irritated. "What's wrong? Did someone upload an unflattering photo of you?"
Sitting on the bench in the middle of the storage room, Gu Chengyuan shook his head. He didn't want to argue with Shao Chongsi today; he was too tired.
Shao Chongsi simply sat down next to him. "What's wrong? Tell me so I can have a good laugh."
Gu Chengyuan: "..." This guy clearly has a pair of very beautiful phoenix eyes, but unfortunately he has a mouth instead. I suggest he sew it up permanently.
Seeing that the man wasn't responding, Shao Chongsi simply stopped moving and stayed next to him, playing on his phone.
Gu Chengyuan took a deep breath. Yes, he was touched by Shao Chongsi again last night because Shao Chongsi brought him a big bag of medicine and band-aids.
He did get blisters on his feet yesterday because his combat boots weren't a good fit... Of course, there were other reasons as well.
Shao Chongsi offered to help him apply the medicine, but he refused.
Nonsense! If he applied the medicine, what would happen? This guy might spread his secret everywhere tomorrow, saying that Gu Chengyuan is only 184cm tall... and that he's wearing 5cm height-increasing insoles!
The reason he insisted on wearing a five-centimeter insole was because his mother thought he was too short.
But even though he was already 184cm tall, his mother was still not satisfied. She was always looking for his flaws. During the summer vacation before his senior year of high school, his mother made a very absurd decision: to make him wear height-increasing insoles when he went out.
He knew that his mother had always felt inferior in aristocratic circles because of her petite stature.
Many wealthy women even mocked her, saying that with such short legs, her son would surely be short...
Gu Chengyuan originally didn't want to agree to such an unreasonable request. After all, 184cm was already tall enough. His father was tall, so he wasn't short either.
But his mother cried by his side all day that day, and in the end, he softened and agreed.
His mother called him again last night, complaining about all sorts of things, which made him feel very depressed today.
"Why don't you go out? I just want a few minutes of peace and quiet. Are you trying to slack off with me?" Gu Chengyuan, standing up helplessly. Was Shao Chongsi some kind of tagalong?
