“Thank… thank you, master Qilu. Don’t blame An Chuxia jie. I know she’s not directly upset with me. It’s my fault. Please don’t blame her!”
An Chuxia feels like vomiting after hearing Xia Xinyu’s plea. An Chuxia bites her lip and looks straight at Han Qilu.
“Of course I won’t!” Han Qilu relaxes his tone, but his eyes become as cold as his mouth. “But I don’t want to hear you accusing her of bullying you among her classmates.”
Xia Xinyu is stunned. Han Qilu’s meaning is implicit. He’s telling her that whether or not she accuses An Chuxia of bullying her, he will stand by An Chuxia’s side.
Xia Xinyu unconsciously clasps her hands together as she gradually regains her composure. “I won’t say anything about this, master Qilu.”
‘‘Of course, this is best for this instance.” Han Qilu’s mouth pulls to a curve on his face.
He turns and walks to An Chuxia. He reaches out and pokes her on the head. “Why don’t you sleep some more?”
“Well, it’s almost time to get up,” An Chuxia answers casually. Her eyes look over Han Qilu’s shoulder and sees Xia Xinyu turn away.
“Ah… .” Han Qilu lazily stretches. “I’ll look around. Go freshen up.”
“Okay.” An Chuxia nods as she looks back at Han Qilu before walking away. Her wariness against Xia Xinyu disappears.
Then, An Chuxia stops in her tracks and calls out to Han Qilu. “Do you know Xia Xinyu?”
He glances at her. “Why do you ask? Should I know her?”
Seeing his reaction, An Chuxia suddenly shrugs her shoulders and waves her hand. “I don’t know why I asked. I’ll go wash my face.”
It’s too early to have so much commotion. Of course, An Chuxia didn’t explain that she didn’t bully Xia Xinyu. There are many people in the world who are as stubborn as An Chuxia, and Han Qilu isn’t a stranger to it.
“Our long-awaited wild adventure officially begins!” The headmaster announces with the megaphone. Let me talk about the rules… (N thousand words are omitted).”
The rules are similar to previous years. The change is going from a pair to a trio. Each group starts at the same starting point, and ends at the other end of Snake Mountain. All modern tools are confiscated, including Batian, whom she took with her. (Remember that domineering dog?)
Each team can join another team, or each trio can act as a single unit. Of course, each group has to find the ten flags hidden throughout Snake Mountain, and they’re marked with the Stein school logo. Everyone has three days to complete the task, and the group with the most flags wins.
Of course, to prevent accidents, each group is given three signal flares. In case of danger, the college will immediately send out a search and rescue team.
Han Qilu has never been fond of group activities, so he’s fine just starting out with An Chuxia and Xia Xinyu while they started off with other teams. Soon, they enter Snake Mountain, and they’re completely surrounded by trees. Shortly after, they don’t see the other teams as well.
