“Don’t do anything!” An Chuxia’s conscience takes over as she takes the mobile device and states her command . Then, she takes the device and throws it away . The poor cell phone bounces off the ground a few times . No one knows whether the device survived the impact .
Xia Xinyu’s back stiffens as her heart beats rapidly . She wants to say something but she is afraid she’d make the situation worse . She maintains her original posture and watches the scene in front of her unfold .
“What do you mean?” Han Qilu is rapidly getting upset . His handsome brow wrinkles . “If you throw away the phone, how could we… . ”
“I’m telling you, Han Qilu . ” An Chuxia stares at him, arms akimbo . “You said you’re a grown up, but yet, you’re being rude . If we win through cheating, wouldn’t it eat up your conscience? I think I’d rather lose . I thought you’re always smart and upright . Is it that I’ve misread you and you’re hiding your true self?”
“You… . ” Han Qilu clenches his teeth as he stares at An Chuxia, willing to stare a hole through her .
She is good and consistent, and that’s what makes her smart . An Chuxia suddenly changes her expression and smiles as she walks forward . “Oh my dear young master Han Qilu . We’ll continue to work hard and we’ll eventually succeed, okay?”
She extends her right hand and makes the OKAY gesture .
Han Qilu freezes her out with a harrumph, but his expression eases . He really can’t get angry at Chuxia . It’s easier to admit defeat .
After a while, the sun eventually rises to noon . The three take a break and take out bread and water from their backpacks, prepared to fill their stomachs .
“Actually… “ Xia Xinyu wipes the water from her lips . “Before attending this event, my family’s servants surveyed the area for me . There is a cabin if we go west . ”
“Cabin? That’s not natural around here . Is someone living there?” An Chuxia looks at Xia Xinyu doubtfully .
Xia Xinyu nods and continues . “The house is made by a former Snake Mountain villager . It has since been abandoned . There might be a flag around there . ”
“Great!” An Chuxia happily claps her hands . “You should’ve said something earlier . I was so worried that we won’t find a flag . ”
Xia Xinyu shakes her head after hearing An Chuxia . “I’m not sure if there’s one . After all, wouldn’t it be too obvious if a flag is hidden at a cabin?”
“No,” Han Qilu, who’s been silent for a while, suddenly speaks up . “Stein students are spoiled . ”
“Are you talking about yourself?” An Chuxia can’t help but interrupt . When she sees his face, she hurriedly shuts her mouth . “I didn’t say anything . Continue… goon . ”
Han Qilu coughs and continues . “They planned the event not to make it too difficult . After all, this is an activity, not a treasure hunt . The cabin would be the best place to find that flag . Let’s go there to try our luck . ”
An Chuxia and Han Qilu glance at each other while simultaneously pointing at each other .
This makes Xia Xinyu uncomfortable . But the feeling was fleeting . Her mouth pulls to a strange smile… .
