Chapter 29 Can Only Meet for a Moment

  This afternoon Xiaolong is going out, and one chapter may be released a bit late, please forgive me everyone~~

  Hao Ren looked at her and thought, didn't you ignore me?

  But he didn't have a small family atmosphere either, turned around and picked up the room card, "Let's go."

  Zhao Yanzi let out a sigh of relief, thinking that Hao Ren would let her go eat on her own. She was unfamiliar with the place and wouldn't have dared to ask Hao Ren to accompany her to dinner if she weren't so hungry and her parents weren't around.

  Thinking of himself deliberately ignoring Hao Ren earlier and now coming to beg him with a pitiful look, Zhao Yan's momentum weakened slightly.

  They walked out of the hotel, big and small, to find a small restaurant nearby. However, it was already after 9 o'clock, close to 10 o'clock at night, and most restaurants were closed. They wandered aimlessly around the hotel without finding an open restaurant, and their stomachs became even hungrier.

  Zhao Yanzi stuck close to Hao Ren, afraid of losing him. As Hao Ren walked along the relatively desolate street, he finally saw a small restaurant still open in front of them.

  They rushed in, just about to order two bowls of rice to fill their stomachs, when they suddenly found that the restaurant was filled with rough and burly men, some with shaved heads, others bare-chested, all shouting and drinking wildly.

  Zhao Yanzi was a little scared and wanted to pull Hao Ren out of the restaurant. Hao Ren grabbed her small hand, comforting her, "It's okay."

  He was starving and didn't have the energy to look for another restaurant. And judging by the looks of it, finding another restaurant that's still open at this hour would be quite difficult.

  He led Zhao Yanzi to a corner and sat down, saying to the boss who came up to greet them, "One fish-flavored meat sauce noodle dish, one green pepper stir-fried meat sauce noodle dish."

  He directly ordered a portion for Zhao Yanzi. If it were usual, Zhao Yanzi would definitely blame Hao Ren for being presumptuous, but now she was on guard against those "dangerous men" and didn't have the heart to argue with Hao Ren.

  "People in the world of rivers and lakes, who doesn't drink? Three cups to knock you down, five cups to knock you down......" The men drinking at several tables were guessing fingers while drinking, the atmosphere was getting more and more lively, and the voices were getting louder and louder.

  Zhao Yanzi looked at them, thought for a moment, and suddenly changed from the seat opposite Hao Ren to the seat beside him.

  Hao Ren looked at her terrified expression, like a small bird, and smiled, stretching out one hand to her.

  Zhao Yan's eyes widened slightly, and it wasn't until a moment later that she realized Hao Ren was asking her to give him her hand.

  "Get out!" Zhao Yanzi scolded in a low voice, she wasn't scared to that extent yet.

  Soon, two steaming hot rice bowls were served. Zhao Yanzi casually picked up a bowl and started devouring it voraciously.

  Hao Ren was also starving, took another serving of rice with gravy and started wolfing it down.

  Judging from their posture while eating, they are indeed a very matching couple.

  After eating, both of their stomachs were warm. Zhao Yanzi didn't want to stay here any longer, so she let Hao Ren pay the bill and hastily left the restaurant.

  The small town at the foot of the mountain is quiet to an excessive degree. The distant mountains form a continuous shadow in the black night.

  The moonlight cast a long and short shadow of two people on the flat cement ground.

  Zhao Yanzi gazed at the almost entwined shadows in front of her, suddenly realizing she was too close to Hao Ren, and hastily created some distance between them.

  Suddenly... it was unclear which stray cat made the noise, but it scared Zhao Yanzi into leaning closer to Hao Ren again.

  Hao Ren faced her and once again put his hand in front of her.

  Zhao Yanzi looked at him and thought for a few seconds, "Just hold hands for a while."

  After finishing speaking, she put her palm into Hao Ren's hand.

  Suddenly, her nervous mood became calm. Whatever wind blows or grass moves around her, she is no longer as afraid as before.

  Hao Ren didn't say much either and quietly led her back to the hotel along the way they came.

  A serene little town, a quiet mountain range, a faint breath, light footsteps, and a slight dampness in the palm of one's hand...

  After walking for over ten minutes, they returned to the parking lot in front of the hotel, and suddenly everything became bright.

  Hao Ren knew the knack and loosened his grip on Zhao Yanzi's small hand, while Zhao Yanzi turned her head to look at Hao Ren, seemingly wanting to spit out some harsh words, but swallowed them instead.

  Her face was red, and she felt useless. Suddenly, she puffed out her chest and walked into the hotel first. Hao Ren couldn't guess what she was thinking, but he knew that Zhao Yanzi wasn't a gentle and obedient little loli.

  Hao Ren followed her footsteps and walked into the hotel, but when he returned to the room, he found that Zhao Guang had not come back yet.

  He must have been too engaged in conversation with Zhao Yanzi's parents and their friends, forgot about the time. Hao Ren thought.

  He lay on the bed, opened Zhao Yanzi's pink backpack, took out the camera, and found that only one photo was taken in it all day. It was Zhao Yanzi squatting on the steps, looking up at the top with a huff.

  It's not that annoying after all... Hao Ren shook his head and smiled, putting away the camera.

  When he came out of the bathroom after taking a hot bath, he found that Zhao Guang had returned.

  Zhao Guang inquired about the mountain climbing situation today, and Hao Ren briefly replied. Zhao Guang nodded and didn't say anything else, going to the bathroom to take a bath.

  Hao Ren nervously and awkwardly burrowed into his bed, guessing that in the room opposite, Zhao Hongyu was also asking Zhao Yanzi about today's situation.

  Anyway, today was a close call, but I successfully brought Zhao Yanzi down the mountain. Taking care of this girl is really a troublesome thing.

  Hao Ren, exhausted from a day's work, fell asleep before Zhao Guang came out of the bathroom.

  The next day when Hao Ren woke up, he saw Zhao Guang leaning on the bed watching TV.

  "Are you tired yesterday?" Zhao Guang asked when he saw Hao Ren wake up.

  "It's okay." Hao Ren replied.

  "After a while, let's go around and have a meal of farmhouse food, and then we'll get ready to head back home." said Zhao Guang.

  "Alright." Hao Ren nodded, thought for a moment, and then said, "Thank you both for your hospitality over the past two days."

  "Get up." Zhao Guang walked to the window and pulled open the curtains.

  Outside, the rain is pattering down gently, and the scenery in the mountains appears hazy and beautiful. A thread of cooler air than yesterday wafts in from outside the window, refreshing people.

  Hao Ren put on his shirt and went to the bathroom to wash his face and brush his teeth. Everything was ready, and he followed Zhao Guang to knock on the door across from them.

  The door opened and Zhao Yanzi followed closely behind her mother standing at the entrance.

  Only the smaller one was seen, wearing a milk-colored long-sleeved T-shirt, paired with a beautiful deep purple bottom pants. The upper body is loose and the lower half is tight, without mentioning the lovely top, just talking about the tight-fitting bottom pants, which wraps around the legs to create a beautiful and slender curve, making everyone can't help but take a few more glances.

  The larger one is wearing a Bohemian-style floral maxi dress, with exaggerated abstract flower patterns combined with loose and casual styles.

  And the two women, each wearing a straw hat. The coffee-colored wide-brimmed straw hat echoes with Zhao Hongyu's deep and shallow skirt in color, showing elegance, while this straw hat matches Zhao Yanzi's clothes, it looks a bit strange, but also counts as jumping out of tradition, in this gloomy weather, adding a beautiful and elegant landscape line.

  "Let's go." Zhao Hongyu gently took Zhao Yanzi's small hand and handed the room card to Zhao Guang.

  Zhao Guang led Hao Ren, and the four of them walked along the red carpet corridor of the hotel towards the front desk.

  As he walked through the corridor of the hotel, the Qingyan Mountain in the rain and fog was like a landscape painting, entering Hao Ren's line of sight.

  Suddenly, for an instant, Hao Ren really felt like he had become a part of their family.
