Lian Zong: I work hard but let others get ahead of me

Chapter 55 Look, we’re at the top of the mountain
Xu Zhe'an touched his thigh, which was so numb that it exploded, and looked at Tang Shiying in confusion.

Wasn't she leaning on my shoulder just now? Why was it my leg that was numb?
Could it be that Tang Shiying fell asleep and slipped on her lap?

Awesome, I don’t even wake up from this.

Tang Shiying's face was actually a little rosy, so it must be strange to suddenly lie on someone else's lap.

She quickly stood up, trying not to mention what had just happened, and said, "We have to hurry, there are still two-thirds of it. If we don't crawl, it will be too late."

"You help me up first."

Xu Zhe'an touched his numb leg and said.

Just like when I was in high school, I felt the same when I woke up every afternoon.

At that time, the posture was usually leaning on the desk. When I woke up, my hands and legs were numb.

Sometimes there is a red mark on the face.

Xu Zhe'an felt this way now. With Tang Shiying's help, he stood up. After getting used to it and letting the blood flow, the feeling in his legs slowly returned.

"I'm hungry, here's a Snickers bar." Xu Zhe'an took out two Snickers bars from his pocket and handed one to Tang Shiying.

Hearing Xu Zhe'an reciting the lines of the advertisement, Tang Shiying couldn't help but smile, took the Snickers bar and started eating it.

It’s time to start climbing again, so it’s good to replenish a little more energy.

"Are you ready? It's best to work hard next."

"Ready!"

Tang Shiying responded like a primary school student.

"OK, let's go."

Xu Zhe'an stopped talking nonsense and started the climbing journey with Tang Shiying.

The rhythm of the two of them has slowed down a bit now, and Tang Shiying is not as uncomfortable as before.

Xu Zhe'an no longer just focused on climbing this time. He kept an eye on Tang Shiying's condition at all times, and signaled to stop and adjust if something was wrong.

At this pace, although the two of them were tired, they could still accept it.

"Come on, give me your hand."

The environment on the mountain is always complicated. The two came to a river and found that they could only cross the river by stepping on the stones inside.

The river was not deep, just above the ankles, but the two of them were wearing hiking boots and had to try to avoid getting wet.

After all, Xu Zhe'an's legs were longer and he easily stepped over the stone. Seeing Tang Shiying's timid appearance, he simply stretched out his hand and said.

Tang Shiying stretched out her hand and just met Xu Zhe'an, and she suddenly felt a lot more at ease.

So she mustered up her courage and stepped forward.

She didn't stand firm, but Xu Zhe'an's two hands held her firmly.

Tang Shiyinggang's expression suddenly relaxed, and she stepped on the stones in the small river one by one as she had just done.

With Xu Zhe'an's help, the two finally crossed the river and smiled at each other.

Mountain climbing can actually enhance relationships because two people have to support each other and overcome difficulties together.

In this situation of overcoming difficulties together, the relationship between the two can always get closer and closer.

And just when the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

The photographer's assistant across the river asked with some confusion: "Are you filming an idol drama?"

"What do you mean?" Xu Zhe'an and Tang Shiying were stunned.

"There is a bridge over there. Why don't you walk? You must cross the river by stepping on the stones."

The assistant pointed to the bridge not far away, with a confused look on his face.

Xiao Li directly pulled his assistant away and taunted him: "You don't know anything. This is a romance variety show. If you don't do something about it, who will watch it? Remember, don't film the bridge later, otherwise the secret will be exposed."

After saying that, he nodded to Xu Zhe'an and picked up the camera that had just captured the scene of the two crossing the river.

Xu Zhe'an and Tang Shiying looked at the bridge not far away, a little messy.

"Did you see the bridge?"

"No." "Well, just pretend you didn't see it."

Xu Zhe'an withdrew his gaze and nodded.

The two photographers simply turned off the camera for a short time and told the audience that they had to cross the river by stepping on the stones.

Then he took the camera and walked over the bridge.

Xu Zhe'an and Tang Shiying turned around and continued climbing.

The sun was sinking deeper and deeper, but the two of them kept their rhythm, climbing slowly neither too slowly nor too fast.

From eight or nine in the morning to almost five o'clock now, the two of them felt that there was no need to go back for dinner.

You know, the two of them are still quite far away from the town, and it takes time to go back and forth. It feels like they don't know how long it will take to climb to the top of the mountain and then go back down to the villa.

But seeing that Tang Shiying had almost no complaints, Xu Zhe'an naturally didn't need to say anything.

The two of them now have only one obsession:
Climb to the top of the mountain.

Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the top of the mountain, Tang Shiying and Xu Zhe'an finally began to talk more.

According to the information found, there are only seven rest areas in total.

The two of them had just arrived at the seventh rest area, and were only a few hundred meters away from the final top of the mountain.

In other words, the top of the mountain is already in sight.

The sunshine at five o'clock in the afternoon was not so harsh, but it was still obviously a bit hot, but Tang Shiying and Xu Zhe'an didn't pay much attention.

And because there was only such a small distance left in the end, the pace of the two also accelerated a lot.

Because Tang Shiying didn't hold on any longer, she stopped to rest and adjust her condition once something went wrong. Although it took longer, it was obvious that this was correct for mountain climbing.

"When I was in physical education class in middle school, some people said that my physical fitness was just a little bit poor. Why could I not run 800 meters? Is it because my family had money and therefore had privileges?"

"So I just ran 800 meters stupidly and then fainted."

During the break, Tang Shiying and Xu Zhe'an were chatting.

"Then you are really a bit stupid. No matter what others say, your own body is the most important." Xu Zhe'an said after taking a sip of water.

"Yes, so I will still run the 800 meters in the future, but once I can't hold on anymore, I start walking. I walk for a while and run for a while to complete the 800 meters. This will make them neither chewed up nor stupid. Do what you can’t do.”

"Although for this reason, every time I run 800 meters, it takes me a lot more time than others."

Xu Zhe'an looked at Tang Shiying with a determined look, and felt a unique charm.

This is a girl who, although she has persistence in her heart, will not blindly act stupidly.

"Then why did you almost faint in the first place?" Xu Zhe'an complained directly.

"Ahem, after all, I only ran and ran at most before. I have never tried mountain climbing since I was a child. I suddenly overestimated myself." Tang Shiying finished her rest, stood up again, and said, "Let's go, keep going!"

Xu Zhe'an nodded and stood up.

The two walked side by side, helping each other at any time. For a while, you became my crutch, and then you and I became your crutch, conquering this majestic mountain little by little.

Suddenly, when Tang Shiying lowered her head and wanted to continue walking forward, Xu Zhe'an held her back.

"What's wrong?" Because she lowered her head, she never paid attention to the scenery in front of her.

Xu Zhe'an looked at her with a smile and said, "We're here."

He pointed to the finish line ahead, the highest peak of Hongshan Mountain, and said, "Tang Shiying, we have climbed it."

"We did it at a height of more than a thousand meters."

The two of them looked ahead. The August sun shone on the top of the mountain, like a crown for everyone who persisted until here.
