Chapter 54.2:
After Lan Ning returned from bringing the Japanese around, she was so tired. She took a can of soda from the refrigerator and opened the can to drink two mouthfuls.
'Haaaa….' A sigh of relief… Lan Ning plop on the sofa. 'I think I need to put on ten layers of sunscreen. If I stay here longer, when I go back, I would become very dark.'
Sun Yi Meng sent several guests to their room and took a bottle of soda for herself. She went to sit down with Lan Ning. Lan Ning looked around and then asked Sun Yi Meng: 'Where is Teacher?'
Sun Yi Meng swallowed the soda in her mouth and replied. 'Cousin brother-in-law went to pick flowers for you.'
Lan Ning: '…..'
What?
'This is the one' Sun Yi Meng put the dried flowers on the sofa and said to her, 'Don't you really like this flower. After cousin brother-in-law knows, he went to the river to help you find it. Ah, if this is not counted as love, what would it be then?'
Lan Ning was stunned. She stood up from the sofa: 'You let Teacher go to the river alone to find flowers?'
Sun Yi Meng was shocked by her and looked at her awkwardly: 'Is there something wrong?'
Lan Ning was anxious. 'You don't know that Teacher is a direction fool.'
Sun Yi Meng: '….'
She really doesn't know.
'How long has he gone?' Lan Ning asked anxiously. If Teacher is lost again, what can she do?
Sun Yi Meng looked at the time and replied: 'It has been more than two hours.'
Lan Ning took out her mobile phone and called Yan Ru Yu. She heard the mechanical female voice indicating that the other party is unreachable.
'Phone is not available' Lan Ning looked sad. Is the phone out of battery?
Sun Yi Meng thinks that she is making a big deal out of nothing. 'You don't have to be so anxious. Cousin brother-in-law is already an adult. You are worried that he will get lost?'
'Of course, you would not be worried.' Lan Ning gave her a blank look. 'I am going out to look for him and bring him back.'
Sun Yi Meng: '….'
She thought she was doing this for who ah!
After Lan Ning step out, she went straight to the river. Although the river is not wide, it continued to the end of the road. She didn't know where to go to find Yan Ru Yu. She could only ask the people she meet while walking.
Although Sun Yi Meng said that she is not worried, but after seeing Lan Ning heading out, her heart began to panic. He won't be really got into trouble, right? Cousin brother-in-law is already an adult man, he is not going to get lost in this small countryside?
When she was still thinking about talking to her father, she saw the person walking through the door. After seeing his face, Sun Yi Meng was moved to tears and almost fell. 'Cousin brother-in-law, you are finally back. Anxious to death!'
Yan Ru Yu walking outside for so many hours, is looking a little tired. When he came back and looked around, he asked: 'Is Lan Ning still not back?'
'She came back. But she was afraid that you will get lost, so had gone out to look for you!' She already said, Teacher is so wise, how could he get lost.
'….' He did 'visit' the river for a while but he will never have admitted that he was lost. Yan Ru Yu was silent for a while and slowly said: 'My mobile phone battery is drained. Can you please call Lan Ning to let her know and get her to come back?'
'Good.' Sun Yi Meng dialed the phone and then the string of familiar ringtones came from the sofa.
'She just called you earlier and must have left the phone on the sofa.' Sun Yi Meng silently looked at cell phone on the sofa.
Yan Ru Yu: '….'
He walked over and picked up the phone. He hung up and thought for a moment. 'I would go out and look for her'
Sun Yi Meng: '….'
'Stay. Don't got out. If you go out and she comes back?' Sun Yi Meng said.
Yan Ru Yu asked: 'How long has she been out?'
'I think about an hour. If she cannot find you, she will definitely come back.'
'But in a while, it will be dark.' Yan Ru Yu looked at the sky outside. The road conditions here are complicated. It will still be dangerous at night, especially since she had not brought her mobile phone.
'Do you have any power bank?' He turned to ask Sun Yi Meng.
'Yes.' Sun Yi Meng gave him. 'It is fully charged'
'Thank you.' Yan Ru Yu connected the mobile phone to the power bank, turned and head out.
Sun Yi Meng: '…..'
Wait, didn't you agree that you will be waiting here?
'Cousin brother-in-law!' She shouted at him, wanting to catch up. As a result, she was stopped by the guests whom needed something. She had to watch as Yan Ru Yu went further and further away.
When Yan Ru Yu returned to the river again, the sun had begun to sink. The tourists by the river are lesser than before and they are also packing up preparing to leave.
He went up and asked them if they had seen Lan Ning. No one had. He looked down at his mobile phone and didn't see any miss call.
Yan Ru Yu brow is slightly tightened. Both of them are looking for each other outside. It is easy to miss each other. He only hopes that she remembers his mobile number.
It is different from the snow mountain where they first met. Although it is a bit late, but if you are lucky, you can meet other tourists.
If she is able to borrow a mobile phone, she might call him again… of course, if she remembers his mobile number.
Yan Ru Yu help this kind of psychology and looked for a while along the river. The sky has darkened.
The heart of Yan Ru Yu began to worry. He called Sun Yi Meng and asked her if Lan Ning has gone back. The answer is no.
He is a little worried. Could it be that she is not able to find her way back?
He is now glad that he had not stayed at the homestay waiting for her. He couldn't help but looked at his phone again. But he still has no missed call.
However, Sun Yi Meng sent him a message asking him to go back. She said that Lan Ning is more familiar than him with the area and will definitely find her way back.
Yan Ru Yu slammed the message and continued to look for her by the river.
At this time, there are almost no people at the river. So, it is especially obvious that there is a little wind and grass moving. Yan Ru Yu suddenly noticed that there seemed to be someone behind it. He heard the voice of Lan Ning: 'Teacher, finally found you! Where did you go?'
Lan Ning's tone clearly revealed a little anger but it is also easy to detect the sigh of relief.
Yan Yu Ru turned back and see that she was looking at him with some anger. Yan Ru Yu quickly walked up to her, the brow was no less wrinkled than her: 'You still asked me? Do you know how long I have been looking for you?'
'Ha!' Lan Ning felt very ridiculous. It was obvious that she was looking for him. How did it turn to him looking for her?
She opened her eyes and wanted to ask him. Just as she opens her mouth, Yan Ru Yu suddenly bend down and kissed her.
His kiss is not the harsh time but rather careful and cherished, as if he is retrieving the treasure that have been recovered. With a touch of joy but also with a trace with the peace of mind.
Lan Ning felt her heart filled little by little by his kiss. The anxious moment just disappeared without a trace.
Don't know how long, Yan Ru Yu slowly loosened her lips, looking into her eyes and seriously said: 'I believe that you will not disappear like my mother. So please believe me, that I would not be like your ex-boyfriend whom are not loyal to you, okay?'
Lan Ning looked at him. After a moment of indulging, she nodded. 'Good.'
