43: Chapter 43 Dog Meets Shit

Chen Yu and Su Lingyin's actions also attracted the attention of the hikers.

"Young couples nowadays, they're really enviable!" an old man said to an old woman.

The old woman replied, "Didn't you also carry me on your back across this bridge back then?"

"Yeah." The old man's eyes filled with memories.

Those were the days of youth.

He then sighed, "I can't do it anymore; I'm old now."

The two walked slowly, with time flowing behind them.

"Are you hungry?"

"How about we sit down and rest for a bit?" Chen Yu suggested.

"Okay."

Chen Yu and Su Lingyin sat in the pavilion, watching the passersby.

Most of them were elderly people.

Young couples were rare.

Looking at the green mountains and trees in the distance, Chen Yu exclaimed, "The scenery is infinite and beautiful!"

"It's truly refreshing."

"Yeah, every time I go hiking, it's a form of stress relief. My mind is no longer filled with work or other troubles; there's only the beautiful scenery in my eyes." Su Lingyin looked into the distance, her eyes revealing a longing for beauty.

"Are you usually under a lot of pressure?"

Su Lingyin thought for a moment and said, "It's not that much, I just want to do better. But sometimes, no matter how well you do, there will always be people pointing fingers."

"If you're stressed because of what others say, then there's really no need."

"Because those kinds of people are just jealous of you. Since they can't compete with you, they can only say some sour nonsense."

Seeing Chen Yu's goofy expression, Su Lingyin burst out laughing.

"I know, but I still can't help feeling bad."

"Yeah, I understand how you feel, so try to fight back."

"Staying silent won't make them shut up."

"Anyway, if someone makes you unhappy, just make them unhappy too."

"That makes sense!"

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Here, have some cookies. These are super delicious!" Chen Yu recommended.

Su Lingyin took a bite and said, "Mm, they're quite good, but not as good as the food you cook."

"Then I'll cook for you from now on," Chen Yu said subconsciously.

Then, the atmosphere became stagnant.

Both of them fell silent.

"Uh, I mean, in the Cot..."

Su Lingyin shook her head, interrupting Chen Yu.

"What about after leaving The Cottage?"

"After leaving The Cottage..."

Hearing this, Chen Yu took a deep breath.

"If possible, I want to cook for you for the rest of my life."

His gaze was burning, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.

"Alright, I've rested enough," Su Lingyin said briskly.

She seemed to be changing the subject.

But the smile on the girl's lips seemed to have checked off a box for this conversation.

Soon, the two arrived at a Campsite.

The barbecue grill had already been set up.

"It looks like Chef Chen can show off his skills now."

"Don't worry, leave it to me!" Chen Yu patted his chest.

It made a thumping sound!

"Let's start with this meal," Su Lingyin murmured.

Her voice was so quiet that only she could hear it.

Chen Yu asked in confusion, "What did you say?"

Su Lingyin smiled, "Nothing."

Then she helped Chen Yu prepare the ingredients.

"No, don't do that."

"I can do it."

"I'm afraid you'll get hurt."

"Don't worry, I'll be very careful."

"Uh, is this what you'd call flogging a dead fish?"

"Isn't it? I saw online that this is how you're supposed to score the fish." Su Lingyin still backed down under Chen Yu's gaze.

"Fine, fine, you do it then!"

A second later, Su Lingyin realized—was that her speaking just now?

He wouldn't think I was acting spoiled, would he?

"Su Su."

"Hmm?"

"You sound pretty cute when you're acting spoiled."

"Chen Yu!!!" Su Lingyin raised her fist and charged at Chen Yu fiercely.

"Don't, I was wrong!"

"My hair!" Chen Yu screamed.

Bullet comments:

[They've unknowingly developed to this point. This is great.]

[Anyway, I think it's very sweet. I even laughed out loud!]

[A huge bowl of dog food. I'll drink to that! Delicious!]

[A perfect match, and their rhythm is so in sync.]

[So, love has nothing to do with time spent together. Falling in love is just a matter of a moment, and this moment is composed of countless other moments.]

[Person upstairs, stop talking. I want to see them being sweet!]

...

Amusement Park.

The trio continues their challenges!

"Miaozhu, here's some ice cream for you."

"Miaozhu, you should drink my milk tea instead. This is a new product."

"My ice cream has a rich milky flavor."

Watching the two boys being jealous over her, Jiang Miaozhu couldn't help but feel they were a bit too childish. Chen Yu wouldn't be like this.

Recalling Chen Yu's calm and composed demeanor, Jiang Miaozhu felt they were even more immature.

But unfortunately, her order of appearance was a bit late.

"Alright, you guys eat. I'm on a diet recently." Jiang Miaozhu bought a bottle of sports drink for herself.

I'll drink my own!

They arrived at the next location!

Haunted House!

Jiang Miaozhu looked at the introduction in the brochure; it seemed quite terrifying.

Those two men had already started bickering.

Difficulties upon difficulties didn't make their relationship progress any further.

"You're not scared, are you?"

"How could I be scared?"

"Then why are your legs shaking?"

"Your legs are the ones shaking!"

"Then go in already!"

"Why don't you go in first?!"

Bullet comments: [I feel like I'm seeing two simps in heat fighting over a girl!]

[What a pity. If the choice is wrong, no amount of effort in the process can change the outcome. Jiang Miaozhu just likes Chen Yu, what can anyone do?]

[Jiang Miaozhu still has good taste. It's just a pity she appeared too late.]

[These two are so cowardly, not manly at all!]

[Exactly. It's all fake, what's there to be afraid of? Unless in their hearts...]

Appearance is justice; many people were already speaking up for Jiang Miaozhu.

If she had met Chen Yu earlier, perhaps the ending would have been different.

"Alright, stop arguing. You're going to face it sooner or later anyway, so let's just go in."

The three of them walked inside with the other passersby.

Bullet comments: [I'm out of here; time to eat.]

[The person upstairs is scared, right? Take me with you!]

[A tiny Haunted House, I've got this!]

And then they were immediately proven wrong!

[Holy crap, I'm never watching anything about Haunted Houses again!]

After Jiang Miaozhu's group entered, three zombies in blue official robes suddenly jumped out from a corner, their eyes looking as if they were about to devour them!

"Holy crap!"

"Quick, crawl!"

"No! I mean run! Run fast!"

"Miaozhu, you go first!" Shen Yanzhou actually showed some responsibility.

When He Yunshen heard this, he thought, "How can I let him outdo me?!"

He endured his fear and ran back!

"I'll protect you!"

Jiang Miaozhu said speechlessly, "Even the kids aren't scared. What are you two screaming for?"

He Yunshen gave a forced smile and said, "I didn't scream, it was all Shen Yanzhou!"

"You have the nerve to talk about me? I wonder who did a faceplant while running away!"

"You!"

"What 'you'? The whole country's audience saw you crawling!"

Shen Yanzhou laughed loudly, feeling that the Haunted House wasn't so scary anymore.
