Gu Nanxi looked at the image on the screen and noticed a hand less than half a ter away from Zhong Li on the bench. He recognized the watch on that wrist as the one Qi Shangyu wore before, and such an expensive watch is usually unaffordable for ordinary company employees.
Zhong Li looked at Gu Nanxi’s handso face, her eyebrows holding a smile: "How’s your work going there? When can you co back?"
"It’s already taken care of, I’ll head to the airport later. By the way, which mountain are you guys at?"
"Just at that Qingyun Mountain near An City."
As soon as Zhong Li finished speaking, soone on the screen said sothing to Gu Nanxi about preparing to go to the airport. Gu Nanxi turned around, nodded, and looked at Zhong Li: "I’m heading to the airport, take care, okay?"
"Got it, bye-bye."
Zhong Li hung up the phone with a smile, the laughter at the corners of her mouth lingering for a long ti.
Truth be told, Qi Shangyu was jealous. Zhong Li had never smiled at him like that; she was always distant and courteous, without even the slightest hint of closeness.
"Would you like a cookie?" Qi Shangyu looked at Zhong Li and asked.
"No need, President Qi, I just drank so water, I’m a bit full."
Qi Shangyu withdrew his hand hovering in mid-air and nodded with a smile.
Everyone had rested enough, so they continued to walk up, and Zhong Li took several photos along the way to send to Gu Nanxi, saying how wonderful it would be if he could co along.
Gu Nanxi, already resting in the airport VIP lounge, received Zhong Li’s ssage, his well-defined fingers gliding over the screen, typing a line of words to send.
[You’ll see tomorrow morning.]
[How is that possible? Even if you fly back now, it would be around midnight when you reach ho. I don’t believe it.]
[Wait for .]
Gu Nanxi only sent these two words before being called by the assistant to board the plane.
Though Zhong Li knew it was impossible to see Gu Nanxi tomorrow morning, the thought of his imminent return made her very happy.
Qi Shangyu kept walking behind Zhong Li, watching her constantly engrossed in sending ssages, feeling quite envious.
In the afternoon, they finally reached the mountain top, everyone was panting heavily, Zhong Li sat wearily on a rock, taking a few sips of mineral water.
Assistant Wang raised his hand, fanning his face constantly, his face was now red with heat, and those tight pants were nearly soaked with sweat marks.
"I’m so hungry, let’s cook sothing to eat." One of the female colleagues casually said.
"Let’s all get moving, the n will set up the tents, and the won will cook." The supervisor of the Sales Departnt stood up, brushed the dirt off his pants, clapped his hands, and looked at everyone: "Let’s get going quickly."
Although no one wanted to move right now, they had to fill their stomachs before resting. The won took out the cooking equipnt and ingredients, only to find there was no firewood.
"What do we do without firewood?"
Zhong Li bent down and put down her backpack: "I’ll go gather so nearby, you guys prepare the ingredients, I’ll be back soon."
"Okay, be safe."
Qi Shangyu, who was setting up the tent nearby, saw Zhong Li walking away alone and followed her uneasily: "Why are you out here alone?"
Hearing the voice, Zhong Li turned: "We don’t have any firewood for cooking, I’m out to gather so."
"I’ll join you, we can gather more together."
