It seemed that his previous actions were all intended to find a comfortable angle and position on the toolman’s body to continue sleeping.
Chi Xingyu let out a sigh of relief.
Although he had given himself ample space to calm down, an inexplicable sense of loss washed over him.
Even he couldn’t understand what he was looking forward to.
Was it a closer proximity?
He rolled his conspicuous Adam’s apple and glanced at Tong Sui beside him. The faint fragrance wafting from his fluffy hair made him unconsciously tighten the hand resting on his slender shoulder.
At this moment, he realized more clearly that his feelings for Tong Sui were not as simple as wanting to remain friends.
The closeness he desired was definitely beyond what friends could achieve.
The bus stopped at the parking lot on top of the mountain.
Compared to the bustling amusement park, this parking lot only housed their show’s vehicles, so there was no need to worry about being disturbed.
The guests on the bus got off one after another. Chi Xingyu, sitting in the last row, waited until everyone had exited before he gently pinched Tong Sui’s face.
So soft.
Why is there hardly any flesh on his body? It all seems to have gone to his face.
Unable to resist, Chi Xingyu pinched again.
His strength wasn’t great, but the rough calluses on his hands made Tong Sui frown.
He opened his eyes, clearly not pleased, “You’re so annoying.”
Despite the impatience in his tone, it somehow sounded endearing coming from Tong Sui.
Chi Xingyu, whose temper was not the best, felt oddly comfortable and even a bit pleased at this. He mockingly pinched once more, “Everyone has left, and you’re still sleeping here. You really are a little pig.”
Only then did Tong Sui sluggishly sit up straight and follow Chi Xingyu off the bus.
Initially, Zhong Yi wanted to check on the two who had taken so long to come down, but he soon saw them coming out one after the other.
Chi Xingyu appeared relatively normal, but Tong Sui behind him did not seem to be in the same state.
After being squeezed for so long, his cheeks were all flushed, and even more noticeable were the fingerprints on the other side.
Tong Sui’s skin was fair, and even a little imprint looked particularly delicate; the only possible culprit could be Chi Xingyu standing nearby.
Zhong Yi was immediately alarmed. Who knew what Chi Xingyu had done in the meantime? Given this guy’s nasty personality, it was not beyond him to threaten someone into being his boyfriend.
“Chi Xingyu, you’re too despicable.” Zhong Yi squeezed forward and said to Tong Sui, “Don’t be afraid; I’ll protect you.”
Tong Sui simply sounded in surprise.
Chi Xingyu replied, “Ignore him. He’s just being melodramatic again.”
“You still have the nerve to talk? You pinched him, didn’t you?” Zhong Yi said, “That’s a pretty heavy pinch; you have a ruthless heart.”
Chi Xingyu: “…”
He had only casually touched him a couple of times and had never considered that Tong Sui, too, was a boy, and that his skin could be so tender.
Seeing that he was silent, Zhong Yi took it as a guilty conscience.
“In any case, keep your distance from him.”
Who knew if his face looked this way; was he messing with other places too?
Chi Xingyu felt a bit displeased at Zhong Yi’s commanding tone and was about to retort when fortunately, the production team interrupted their unproductive quarrel.
“Everyone has completed collecting the ingredients, and the upcoming tasks of food preparation and setting up camp will require everyone to work together.”
Time was limited; they needed to start working together.
None of the group had much survival experience.
Jiang Ciyuan walked around the supplies they were given, “Three people will prepare the ingredients, and three will set up the tents.”
Sang Cai said, “Shu Xian and I will handle the ingredients.”
The production team was quite clever.
They specifically picked a time when Zhou Siyuan was not present to make them cook.
Apart from the two of them who could manage simple dishes, the others were completely clueless in the kitchen.
Jiang Ciyuan said, “Then I’ll join you.”
After the task assignments, they all began to get busy.
Tong Sui, along with the other two, was assigned to set up three tents.
Since it was the first time doing this kind of thing, Tong Sui took a look at the instruction manual for a while, probably got the hang of it, and then started assembling.
Tong Sui first spread the tent flat on the grass, took out the poles and connected them, then threaded through the lines along the cross pattern of the tent, securing each joint and finally fastening down the tent stakes.
His movements weren’t particularly fast, but he was the quickest among the three to set it up.
Meanwhile, Zhong Yi, next to Tong Sui, was in utter disarray. He initially felt overly confident thinking, “How hard can it be to set up a tent?” He didn’t even read the instruction manual and just rushed in.
The young master Zhong’s practical skills were poor; he had never done anything like this before, and seeking help did not align with his proud nature.
Tong Sui feared if Zhong Yi kept messing around, they would end up crammed into one tent later.
So, he walked over, “Let me take a look.”
Zhong Yi, irritated, resembled an angry dog, squatting on the ground, “No need, I can do it myself.”
After he spoke, he seemed to realize who he just talked to, and upon seeing Tong Sui, he quickly covered his mouth.
Help.
How did he just speak to Tong Sui in that tone?
Tong Sui didn’t mind his petulant demeanor and squatted down as well, “How about we take this apart and reinstall it?”
Zhong Yi felt a huge relief and immediately replied, “Good, I can do whatever!”
The young master, who was used to directing others to work, felt the surprising joy of being directed for the first time, like a happy little dog, dismantling the poles he had just struggled to assemble.
Tong Sui didn’t expect Zhong Yi to cooperate so readily; he thought he would have to do it all himself.
His own coat ended up brushing on the mud on the ground; Jiang Ciyuan usually cared a lot about appearances and didn’t even notice, as he worked hard.
Chi Xingyu, who had just finished setting up his tent, looked back and saw Tong Sui and Zhong Yi huddled together.
He walked over.
This guy was deliberately pretending he couldn’t set it up, right?
Under Tong Sui’s guidance, Zhong Yi quickly set up the tent again. Wiping his sweat, he stood up, “That was amazing.”
