C269 (1/2)
Tick opened the door of the car and sat down. Her excited face jumped up once as she glared at me in dissatisfaction. It seemed that Tick didn't want to say anything about my previous promise, but she was still very unhappy.
I hastily replied, ”Alright, I know I was wrong. I just came back. The first thing I wanted to do was to make it up to you. That's right, I'm buying you a present now.” As I spoke, I took out the box that I had prepared earlier and handed it to Tick.
Tick took the box and opened it to take a look. Only then did she smile in satisfaction, but she still curled her lips and said, ”That's more like it.” The gift was something that I had already bought a long time ago. It's just a piece of Emperor Jade jade pendant, it's just that I haven't found the appropriate opportunity to give it to Tick.
Seeing that Tick was smiling, I couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief. ”Speak, where are you going? I'll accompany you there when I think of it.”
”I want to go to Huangshan!” Tick suddenly looks at me.
After hearing what Tick said, the car I just started went dead. I looked at Tick in shock and said, ”Didn't you say Jiangnan? Why are you suddenly going to the Huangshan again! ”
Tick pouted and snorted, ”Hmph, I just want to go. Are you going or not?”
I depressingly explained, ”No, there are a lot of things to prepare to go to the Huangshan. We haven't prepared anything at all, so how can we go up the mountain?”
”Who says I'm not prepared?” Tick patted the handbag in her hand. It was only then that I realized why Tick had brought so many things. She was already prepared.
It was already the beginning of May, and the weather was slowly becoming hotter. The ice and snow on Huangshan had already melted, and the temperature at night was only around 10 degrees Celsius. They did not need a sweater or a coat, so they did not need to bring any clothes. No wonder Tick told me to wear my outdoor shoes when I came over today. She was already ready.
Seeing this, I didn't have anything to say. Since Tick wanted to go, then I might as well go. After all, I've already been there once with Cheng, so I'm familiar with the route. It was just that I always thought it was weird. I kept following the route Tick had given me along the way, afraid that I would accidentally say that I had been alone with Cheng during the new year.
Although it was Friday, it was not a holiday, so not many people came to Huangshan. By the time we rushed to the Huangshan, it was already 8 PM. As we still had to go up the mountain the next day, we started to rest after dinner.
Tick must have checked the files before she came. She had everything ready.
The next day, Tick puts on a tracksuit, and I wear the same tracksuit as she does, even in the same color. Fortunately, the hotel we were staying at wasn't the same one I'd been with Cheng in the last time. Otherwise, something would have happened to me.
Basically, it was Tick who decided. I rarely spoke, afraid that Tick would notice anything. Tick seems to be excited about her decision, pulling me along and talking about where to go next.
We packed everything up at seven and began to climb the hill. The Huangshan's winter scenery and summer scenery were completely different. In addition, there were some places that could not be visited in winter, which was why summer could visit all of the beautiful places in the Huangshan.
Tick put on a light blue sportswear. A proper sportswear, it was perfect for evaporating her body. The first time I went on a trip with Tick, Tick was so excited that she kept pulling me to take pictures.
By the time we reached the top, it was already past five in the afternoon. It was the first time we had traveled so far on a mountain road, and although Tick was very tired, she was still very interested in taking a photo with me on the top of the mountain.
There were only a few hotels and restaurants at the top of Huangshan, and there were not many that could choose from them.
Since we had to get up and watch the sunrise tomorrow, Tick and I went back to the hotel at seven o'clock, where we were going to have a bite to eat at a restaurant.
As soon as we entered the hotel, we found the lobby full of people. It was the peak of the meal time and it was too late for us to return.
It was fortunate that the private room still had more, but the price would be much higher. I didn't hesitate and let the waiter bring us in. Just as we were about to enter, a figure suddenly appeared beside us.
”Shen Di, why are you here?”
Hearing that voice, Shen Di turned her head to look, and her expression immediately darkened, and said indifferently: ”Oh, I came here with my boyfriend, is there a problem?”
However, the person beside her was no longer Wang Yang, but another man. This man had a few tall and sturdy statures, his skin had a few shades of black, and he wore a thick gold necklace around his neck. With a glance, one could tell he was a nouveau riche. He also wore a gold watch and ring on his hand, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was rich.
”How would I dare? I'll lend it to you to introduce him, this is my boyfriend, Gao Jiawang, he's the CEO of a construction company.”
Gao Jiawang's face revealed a smile, but his eyes continued to wander around the flute, revealing a look of hunger and jealousy.
