Chapter 411: Lake, Starry Sky, and Her
Dingshan Lake is a scenic spot with few houses around. This is not the peak tourist season and there are not even many tourists, so it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a desolate wilderness.
On this dark and windy night, there was suddenly movement in the bathroom where I thought there was no one.
This of course made Li Yuru and Zhou Qing's hair stand on end.
"Who, who's there!?"
Li Yuru shouted.
"Senior, I, did I hear it right? Was there some noise there just now?"
Zhou Qing kept shrinking behind Li Yuru.
"You heard it right, I heard it just now, and it seemed to be a man's voice!"
After the two confirmed that it was not each other's hallucination, they both tensed up with fear.
Not to mention that the source of the voice seemed to be a man, which made it even more terrifying.
In an instant, all kinds of perverted, horrific, and thriller legends popped up in my head.
Inside the cubicle, Xu Cheng and Lin Wanzhou were also extremely nervous.
Lin Wanzhou pinched Xu Cheng's waist anxiously.
This stupid Xu Cheng is so useless!
If someone discovered this, she and Xu Cheng were squeezed in a bathroom cubicle in the middle of the night in dishevel, and people might think they were doing something bad.
Lin Wanzhou also understood a lot. She didn't go to see it on her own initiative, but heard Guo Zining tell her about these strange things. When talking about this kind of scene, she was a little confused. Why did it have to be in this kind of occasion? Guo Zining smiled and said that if you want to pursue excitement, you have to pursue it to the end.
But she is not the kind of girl who seeks excitement. She and Xu Cheng are clearly innocent now.
"Think of a solution quickly." Lin Wanzhou whispered to Xu Cheng.
Outside the cubicle, Li Yuru and Zhou Qing hesitated for a few seconds, but finally mustered up the courage to move forward. Li Yuru lifted up the toilet plug nearby and used it as a defensive weapon.
The sound of their footsteps was particularly clear in the ears of Xu Cheng and Lin Wanzhou. As the footsteps got closer, Xu Cheng coughed again and spoke.
"Ahem...someone is here."
"really!"
This time, they clearly heard a man's voice in the cubicle, and Li Yuru and Zhou Qing almost jumped up.
They were both terrified and excited.
"What are you doing in there!" Zhou Qing hid behind Li Yuru and asked bravely, "Come out quickly, or we will go and call for help!"
“…”
After exchanging a glance with Lin Wanzhou, Xu Cheng cleared his throat and said awkwardly.
"Well, I'm in the bathroom and it's not convenient for me to come out yet."
"What are you doing in the girls' restroom as a boy?"
Although Zhou Qing was hiding behind Li Yuru, his voice was much louder than Li Yuru's.
"Pervert! Are you trying to do something secretly to the girls in the bathroom?"
Lin Wanzhou felt very uncomfortable when he heard this and frowned.
Although Xu Cheng is indeed a pervert, she is the only one who says he is a pervert. What right do other girls have to say that?
Xu Cheng was very calm and quickly explained, "I don't know either. I just came to the toilet in the dark. I must have gone to the wrong place."
"Do you think we believe it? Come out now, or we'll open the door!"
When Lin Wanzhou heard that she had to open the door, she didn't have time to get angry and looked at Xu Cheng nervously.
What should I do now?
I was really blocked by these two people.
Xu Cheng was also very nervous, but the voice sounded very familiar, so he asked tentatively.
"Is it Senior Zhou Qing?"
"Ah? You know me?"
After hearing Zhou Qing's answer, Xu Cheng was sure that it was indeed her. Zhou Qing was the third debater who was on the affirmative side with him and Lin Wanzhou in the debate tonight.
On the other side, when Lin Wanzhou heard that it was Zhou Qing, her face lit up with joy at first, then turned pale .
If you are blocked by a stranger, you can say you don’t know him or her, and you don’t care if you are discovered. But if you are blocked by an acquaintance, wouldn’t that be even more socially destructive?
It happened in the blink of an eye.
Xu Cheng thought for a few seconds and answered quickly.
"Senior, I, I'm Xu Cheng..."
"Xu Cheng?"
Zhou Qing and Li Yuru's voices both rose three points higher.
"Yes, it's me. I took the wrong path just now. I'm so sorry. I scared you guys."
"...No, nothing." Zhou Qing, who was making a lot of noise just now, didn't have time to answer. Li Yuru rushed to forgive him, "So it's you, Junior Brother Xu. If it's you, then I'm relieved. Junior Brother Xu is definitely not a bad person."
The tone of her voice now became gentle and virtuous, and she was totally different from the person who wanted to tear the pervert apart with his bare hands just now.
Lin Wanzhou was standing nearby and heard something strange.
What do you mean that Junior Xu is definitely not a bad person ?
Although Xu Cheng's case was indeed a misunderstanding this time, how could one trust that this guy was a good person?
Who gave you this confidence?
Outside the compartment.
Zhou Qing frowned beside Li Yuru, feeling a little jealous.
Li Yuru, she didn't say much just now, why is she talking so much now?
She thought again of what the two had just said. If Xu Cheng was in the bathroom, then wouldn't he have heard everything they said just now?
Zhou Qing's face felt hot, and Li Yuru was obviously aware of it and her face turned red.
"Junior, I'm so sorry for today." Zhou Qing's tone was full of apology. He patted Li Yuru's hand and asked her to throw away the toilet plug quickly. "Are you not done yet? I, your senior sister Li and I are leaving now."
Li Yuru was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a hole to crawl into. How could the saying "Cao Cao Cao" work so well? She was pulled by Zhou Qing and walked outside after packing her toiletries.
Suddenly, she remembered something, turned around and asked.
"Oh, Junior Xu, how about I help you keep watch at the door and don't let other girls in."
In the compartment, Xu Cheng and Lin Wanzhou looked at each other, and the corners of their mouths twitched at the same time.
Xu Cheng thought to himself, "Senior Li, you are too enthusiastic."
Thank you so much.
Rather than guarding the door, it would be more accurate to say that they were blocking them in a different way.
"No, no."
Xu Cheng rejected Li Yuru's "good intentions". Fortunately, Li Yuru did not insist any further, otherwise the two of them would have been blocked for a long time.
Hearing that there was no more noise outside, Lin Wanzhou poked the boy in front of him.
"You want to go out and take a look?"
“…”
Xu Cheng tentatively pushed open a corner and glanced outside. Seeing that there was no one around, he rushed out in one step.
"Moshimoshi, come out."
After hearing the young man calling him from outside, Lin Wanzhou finally felt relieved and walked out slowly.
"Really? How could I encounter something like this when I was using the toilet? It's so scary." Lin Wanzhou patted his chest, "Luckily I wasn't discovered."
Then he glared at Xu Cheng again.
"It's all your fault. If you hadn't sneezed, I wouldn't have noticed it."
"Hey? How can you blame me for this, Lin Wanzhou? It was you who insisted on calling me in, and it was your hair that tickled me, so I couldn't help but sneeze."
“…”
After hearing that it seemed like she was indeed in the wrong, Lin Wanzhou shut her mouth and stopped talking about it.
She was not afraid of Xu Cheng.
This is called avoiding the enemy's sharp edge.
"Let's go back and sleep." Xu Cheng said.
Lin Wanzhou stood there and looked around, "I don't want to sleep anymore."
"Don't want to sleep?"
"Yeah, it was so scary just now. I don't feel sleepy at all now. Let's take a walk together?"
Xu Cheng felt that he was no longer sleepy, so he nodded and agreed.
“…Alright.”
The two of them walked along the lake. The air around them was filled with the scent of moist earth. Occasionally, the chirping of insects and frogs broke the silence, but it soon returned to calm.
The lake surface at night is like a huge piece of black velvet, quiet and mysterious. The moonlight sprinkles on the lake, forming twinkling spots of light, like countless stars falling into the mortal world.
The shadows of the mountains in the distance are looming, reflected on the lake, like a flowing landscape painting.
A breeze blew by, bringing cool moisture, and Xu Cheng's heart seemed to become peaceful as well.
Feeling a little tired from walking, Xu Cheng sat down cross-legged by the lake.
Lin Wanzhou also stopped and sat beside him, hugging her knees, with moonlight twinkling in her beautiful eyes.
“It’s so beautiful here at night.”
Xu Cheng turned his head and stared blankly at the girl's profile.
Against the backdrop of the moonlight, the girl's fair face was absolutely beautiful. For a moment, he was reminded of the words in The Goddess of Luo River: "She is as graceful as a startled swan, as elegant as a swimming dragon."
Thinking that one of the main purposes of this trip was to make Lin Wanzhou willing to live with him, the young man coughed twice to remind her.
"Lin Wanzhou, the two senior sisters just said that I'm pretty good..."
"Um?"
The girl looked at him confusedly, not knowing what Xu Cheng meant.
"I mean, I'm pretty popular, right? If you don't cherish me, I'll..."
"What are you going to do?" Lin Wanzhou asked, picking up the pebble as big as a steamed bun behind him.
"Ahem, what I'm saying is that you have to cherish me. Otherwise, there are so many people around me who covet me. What if..."
This time, Lin Wanzhou held the stone high.
"What if?"
"It's all right."
"snort."
Seeing that Xu Cheng had given in, the girl threw the stone into the lake on his side.
The pebble hit the water with a thud.
"Lin Wanzhou, look, there are fish here."
Xu Cheng pointed at the lake. The water was clear. Perhaps startled by Lin Wanzhou's stone, the fishes were frightened and jumped around in the lake, creating ripples.
Xu Cheng took off his shoes and socks, put his feet into the lake, and leaned back in enjoyment.
"Comfortable."
Lin Wanzhou was watching from the side, and when she saw Xu Cheng looking very pleased, she curled her lips.
"Is it that comfortable?"
"It's very comfortable. I feel like the fish in the lake are touching my feet. If I put this in a massage parlor outside, it would be a paid fish therapy massage, 30 yuan an hour."
Xu Cheng seduced Lin Wanzhou, who was a little greedy for money, but the girl unexpectedly discovered Watson's blind spot.
"Massage? Have you ever had a massage?"
"without."
"Then how do you know all this mess? And in such detail."
"Li Qiuyang told me." Xu Cheng said firmly.
“…”
Lin Wanzhou didn't ask any more questions, so Xu Cheng quickly asked tentatively, "Lin Wanzhou, don't you want to try?"
"don't want."
Lin Wanzhou shook his head. "The water is so cold."
"It's not cold. If it's really cold, just come closer to me."
"I don't want it."
Xu Cheng didn't care whether the girl wanted it or not, he just reached out, grabbed the girl's feet and untied her shoelaces.
"Eh hey hey? What did you do?"
Lin Wanzhou put up a symbolic resistance, but Xu Cheng stripped off all her shoes and socks, revealing her cute white feet, which were held in his palms.
"I'll kick you!"
Lin Wanzhou threatened.
But she was just talking. Knowing this guy's hobby, she wouldn't really kick him.
"You can try it, it's really comfortable." Xu Cheng continued to persuade.
His temptation has always been effective on young girls, and Lin Wanzhou looked at him with some intention.
"real?"
“Really, really.”
Xu Cheng nodded like a chick pecking at rice, and only then did Lin Wanzhou agree to stretch his legs out to the lake and give it a try.
I tentatively stepped on the lake with my white toes. Ripples spread out on the lake surface and a cool and refreshing feeling invaded my whole body .
"Hey, it's so cold."
The girl shuddered. Just as she was about to pull her feet away, she found that her feet were wrapped by Xu Cheng's big feet and were dragged into the water unreasonably.
"What did you do?"
She patted Xu Cheng's chest a few times, and Xu Cheng just smiled.
"It's not cold anymore, is it?"
“…”
The girl curled her lips and said nothing.
It seems that it is not cold...
And why are Xu Cheng's feet so big that they can wrap her feet completely? Why is he so warm in the water? The girl can feel the coolness of the lake water while feeling his burning heat at the same time.
This experience of ice and fire gave her a sense of pleasure that gradually spread from her scalp.
Gradually, Xu Cheng let go of the girl's feet, and Lin Wanzhou could feel the fish kissing her feet, which brought a tingling sensation.
"Hehe, it's itchy."
She was ticklish to begin with, so her calves trembled unconsciously, and her fair and smooth calves under her skirt created splashes of water, as if she was sitting by the lake and swinging her calves in the water.
The boy and girl sat side by side, soaking their feet, and gradually, their shoulders leaned against each other.
"There are so many stars, Xu Cheng." Lin Wanzhou looked up at the sky, "So beautiful."
"Um."
Xu Cheng agreed.
He had a smile on his face.
Some scenes are destined to remain in the memory, and at this moment, the lake, the starry sky, and the girl in front of you will definitely be well put away and put into the collection of memory.
“Lin Wanzhou, if you live with me, I will sit up and watch with you whenever you want to look at the stars,” the young man said.
Lin Wanzhou gave him a light push.
"You just want to trick me."
"Deception?" Xu Cheng was pushed away like a sticky candy, but he quickly came back and hugged the girl's shoulders and clung to her, "Does that prove that I am really tempting to you?"
“…”
Lin Wanzhou didn't say anything else and just leaned quietly against his chest.
"I'm sleepy."
"Then let's go back."
Xu Cheng pulled out his feet, wiped his toes with his socks, put on his shoes and stood up.
Lin Wanzhou just despised it.
"It's so dirty."
"Then I'll carry you back."
Amid the girl's screams, Xu Cheng picked her up steadily from the ground and held her horizontally by the waist.
The girl's hair was hanging down, and from time to time there were crystal clear water droplets, which slid down her white calves, all the way to her toes, and finally dripped between her toes.
"Put me down quickly, what if someone sees us?" Lin Wanzhou hid her head in Xu Cheng's arms, saying with a blushing face.
"It's okay. Everyone is asleep anyway, so no one can see it."
Xu Cheng held the girl's shoes in his hand and walked towards his tent.
As for the little white socks that the girl took off, he had already put them in his pocket.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse.
Lin Wanzhou huddled in the boy's chest, feeling a mixture of excitement and happiness in her heart.
Resting her head on the boy's arm, she looked up at the stars in the sky.
"I promise you..."
