Chapter 108

When they returned to the pasture, Gong Jiang and his companions had already fed the livestock and the little ones.

Gong Jiang: "Teacher, Brother Shi, you should take a shower and rest. We'll stay at the ranch for another day."

Lin Chengqian: "Yeah, you guys must have been exhausted yesterday, right? Brother Shi's nostrils are all black."

Shi Wen was surprised that the unfortunate kid was so honest. A little embarrassed, he wiped his nose with a tissue and, sure enough, wiped out some black ash.

Yan Kexing put his arm around Shi Wen, "It's not dark. It's perfectly normal to get a little ash when putting out a forest fire."

Gong Jiang laughed, "They're not really dark-skinned, you can't even tell. But you must be tired, you should get some rest."

Ge Yue: "Yes, yes, the kitchen has already made porridge and also cooked some wontons that the teacher made. You can eat something after you shower and then go to sleep."

Shi Wen nodded and said, "Thank you."

Shi Wen and Yan Kexing back to their room to take a shower.

Their house has been renovated, and now the bathroom and bedroom are connected. Once you enter the bedroom and close the bedroom door, you can also close the bathroom door, and you can't hear any noise outside.

Since it was already this late, the two of them decided to shower together.

Shi Wen before taking a shower, she makes a point of carefully washing her face with facial cleanser and also washing her hair.

While washing his hair, he tilted his head back and asked Yan Kexing to check, "Is there still black ash on my face?"

As Yan Kexing washed his hair, he couldn't resist leaning down and kissing him. "Not at all."

Shi Wen muttered, "You didn't even look carefully."

Yan Kexing: "I've seen it."

After washing up, the two drank some porridge and ate some wontons to fill their stomachs, then went back to their room to sleep.

Shi Wen slept soundly all day, only waking up in the evening.

Yan Kexing woke up earlier than him and was already preparing a big meal in the kitchen.

Today's dish must be roast goose. The rich aroma wafts over in waves, Shi Wen smell it, my stomach rumbles, and my insides almost rebel.

He threw on a T-shirt, jeans, and then slipped on his slippers and ran out.

Yan Kexing was indeed making roast goose in the kitchen.

Shi Wen ran up to Yan Kexing and said, "How did you know I wanted roast goose today? It smells so good!"

Yan Kexing: "Didn't you say you wanted to eat this last time? We were a little short on preparation time today. Next time, when we have more time, the roast goose will taste even better."

"That's already quite good." Shi Wen said, turning to look around. "Where are Gong Jiang and the others?"

Yan Kexing: "They've gone to the pasture to herd the livestock."

Shi Wen rubbed Yan Kexing's back and said, "They've really worked hard."

Yan Kexing: "Hmm, let them take half a roast goose back for a midnight snack later."

While the two were chatting in the kitchen, Gong Jiang and his two companions walked in with their dogs.

The dogs smelled the aroma of roast goose and barked several times outside the kitchen.

Shi Wen walked out of the kitchen, beckoned Heiwa and the others over, tucked Heiwa between his legs, rubbed its fluffy neck, and said with a smile, "Don't bark, the food will be ready soon."

Heiwa: "Woof!"

Shi Wen was playing with the dogs, Lin Chengqian took out his phone and turned the screen to show Shi Wen: "Brother Shi, you guys got filmed when you went to put out the fire, and the whole country is praising how handsome you are!"

Shi Wen subconsciously asked, "What?"

When he looked up, he saw that under the news article Lin Chengqian had opened, many people were praising his good looks and saying that the most handsome person had indeed been handed over to the country.

Shi Wen chuckled, "What?"

Lin Chengqian: "In terms of news, handsome guys will never go unnoticed, no matter where they are."

Shi Wen reached out and swiped the screen. "There weren't any casualties this time, right?"

Lin Chengqian: "No, the news said the damage wasn't too great. Such a large wildfire was extinguished so quickly, and the fire was contained to such a small area. Everyone is praising the firefighters and soldiers for their greatness, and many people have sent various kinds of food to express their condolences."

Chapter 108

The impact of this wildfire is greater than Shi Wen imagined.

Outsiders will only be allowed to enter the mountain once the wildfire is completely extinguished and it is confirmed that it will not reignite.

Yan Kexing and his team are preparing to go to the mountains for research.

Shi Wen asked, "If you're going to conduct research in the mountains, what kind of research will you be doing?"

Yan Kexing: "We're observing the flora and fauna on the mountain, studying the impact of wildfires on the forests, and mainly recording data. What's wrong?"

Shi Wen, "I want to go with you."

Yan Kexing smiled and said, "Go if you want to."

Shi Wen, "Won't that disrupt your work?"

"Not at all," Yan Kexing said. "With your abilities and physical condition, you'll only help, not hold us back."

Shi Wen, "Then I want to go with you. When do we leave?"

Yan Kexing: "I'll go on Wednesday, stay in the mountains for about one night, and come back on Friday."

Shi Wen's spirits lifted. "Then I'll make the arrangements."

Shi Wen about to go out, he asked Zhang Deyuan and the others to come and look after the ranch, with wages paid daily.

In addition, he specially prepared supplies for his trip—tent, sleeping bag, clothes, food, medicine, etc., packing a large bag full.

This time, they will pass by Mount Kuyang to see the mother tiger. Shi Wen even specially prepared a bag of beef jerky, intending to bring it to the mother tiger as a treat.

The team that went out to conduct the research was still Yan Kexing's team, plus Shi Wen, a total of five people, just enough to fit in one car.

We were all acquaintances, so there was no awkwardness once we got in the car.

Lin Chengqian looked at Shi Wen and said happily, "Brother Shi, with you here, we won't have to worry about not finding a good mountain path this time."

Shi Wen readily agreed, "Leave it to me. I can't help you with your specific skills, but I can handle carrying the equipment and finding the way."

Ge Yue: "How could I not be of help? Brother Shi, your abilities in our field are also very impressive!"

Yan Kexing the car, interrupted their chatter, saying, "Let's rest for a bit first, we'll head into the mountains later."
