“Gulp,” under the deep dark night, someone swallowed, and the atmosphere suddenly became somewhat awkward and ambiguous.

Ning Yichu’s hand still maintained its position against his chest. She staggered a step backward, maintaining the safest distance before she said, “Thank you, I’m leaving.”

Li Lingyang didn’t say anything this time; the phone in his pocket continued to vibrate nonstop.

Li Lingyang pinched the bridge of his nose, ignoring it, and turned to leave in another direction.

“I’m sorry, the number you have dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later…” The mechanical female voice from the receiver issued a reminder once more, and Shen Jiangqing’s eyebrows knitted in frustration.

Just then, a man and woman emerging from behind the rockery passed in front of her, discussing the scene they had just witnessed.

“Wait, did you say you saw a pair of ‘wild mandarin ducks’ in the fake stone cave?” Shen Jiangqing immediately followed them, gritting her teeth.

The man and woman were startled, the woman felt the matter was quite embarrassing and had not said much, but the man hinted meaningfully, “Aren’t you the lady of the family that came after us? Why are you here?”

Shen Jiangqing’s breathing paused, and her face turned pale, “Where should I be?”

“Oh no, I didn’t mean that…” The man realized he might have misspoken and quickly shook Shen Jiangqing off and hurried away.

Shen Jiangqing’s pretty face was almost twisted with anger—could it be that Li Lingyang wasn’t answering her calls because he had gone to fool around with Ning Yichu?

Glancing at the beach, indeed Ning Yichu was no longer in sight, even her daughter Ningning was left in the care of a waiter.

Shen Jiangqing felt as if her heart was being scratched by a cat and wished she could tear Ning Yichu apart on the spot. She quickly dialed a phone number, “Hello? Have you sneaked in yet? Beiji’s event is about to start!”

…

By the time Ning Yichu clumsily made it back to the competition site, the treasure hunt was almost closing.

Xiao Ai and Yu Weilan ran up to her and asked, “Sister Ning, where did you go for so long? We couldn’t see you at all. Did you find the treasure?”

Without blushing or skipping a beat, Ning Yichu casually answered, “No, I just went for a walk in the woods. The scenery wasn’t bad. Did you find anything?”

“Nothing,” Xiao Ai drooped disappointingly, “I found no high-class jewelry, it feels like I made a wrong turn. But the only consolation is that the HR department said the president has arranged some luxury travel packages to be drawn at tonight’s bonfire party!”

“The boss is really generous,” Ning Yichu commented nonchalantly.

At that moment, Ning Yichu felt a burning gaze on her and turned her head, accidentally meeting Mo Baiyou’s eyes.

He was standing beside the temporary stage, not yet at the bonfire party, having already opened a bottle of wine He held a glass in his hand, swaying slightly, a few strands of hair hanging low, obscuring his brow and eyes, looking somewhat dejected.

Ning Yichu had just forcefully rejected him.

He even had many words of confession, many thoughts claustrophobically trapped inside his heart for five years, yet before he could utter them, she had rejected him.

She said she didn’t have the energy to invest in another relationship.

She said she didn’t want to lead a man on, nor would she give the other party any false hope.

She said that some things, if not pierced through, could still allow for friendship, but once broached, not even friendship could be maintained.

With these thoughts, Mo Baiyou drained the red wine in his hand in one gulp.

Ning Yichu cavalierly shifted her gaze away, feeling at peace in her heart.

Perhaps he would think her pretentious, but if refusing him ultimately led to job difficulties, she thought, she would resign. However, she faintly believed that Mo Baiyou was a gentlemanly boss and would not be so petty.

She really didn’t want to lose such an excellent boss like him.

“Alright, it’s 6:30. Has everyone returned?” the host’s voice came from the stage with a tone of regret, “It seems like no one has found the mysterious grand prize prepared by the president! But no worries, the event is still ongoing, and tonight there’s a campfire party. The president himself will dance with one of the designers on site!”

Ningning, having heard about the party, stopped playing with water and came over to join the event with Chen Bao, bringing Doudou along.

The little girl was surprisingly sociable, not only getting along well with children her age but also becoming friendly with other Beiji employees.

The campfire party offered a variety of snacks, and with her calling out “pretty sister, handsome uncle,” everyone was eager to give her treats.

Before long, the party had barely started and her little stomach was already bloated.

“I told you not to eat so much. See? Now your stomach hurts, doesn’t it?” Chen Bao glared at the little girl with furrowed, handsome brows.

Ningning cradled her stomach, full of misery, “Everyone’s already so uncomfortable, and you’re still being mean to me, woo woo, you’re no longer the caring big brother who loved me.”

“Not a single tear, and you’re still fake crying?” Chen Bao was of course worried about her; he looked around, the nearest restroom was quite far. It might be better to go back to the room.

Ning Yichu, seeing Ningning’s despondent little expression, silently lamented and hugged her, rubbing her little stomach, “The resort has a clinic, I’ll take you there.”

Ningning, sobbing in her arms, said, “I don’t want injections…”

“You’ve just overeaten; you’ll probably just get some digestive tablets, no need for injections,” Ning Yichu coaxed.

“Then Mommy, can you carry me? I’m too full; I can’t walk,” Ningning said, covering her flushed little face, crying.

The glow of the campfire painted her pale little face with a layer of morning glow.

“Okay.” Ning Yichu picked up the little girl and headed to the nearest clinic.

The clinic was there in case guests had any emergencies. At this late hour, there weren’t many people on duty, and indeed, as Ning Yichu had said, Ningning received some digestive aids.

“Children should avoid overeating; it could disturb the digestive system. Worse still, it can cause accumulation of food, vomiting, constipation, and other symptoms…” the doctor gently soothed her.

Ningning was about to cry; she would never be greedy again.

After taking the digestive tablet, Ning Yichu took Ningning back to the room to rest.

Ningning sat on the sofa with Chen Bao and Doudou by her side.

Doudou clumsily tried to emulate the doctor, massaging her belly, but without the doctor’s technique, it turned out quite comfortable instead. Ningning slumped on the sofa like a lazy little pig, occasionally grunting, which made Chen Bao grow even more exasperated!

As Doudou massaged, she blinked her big eyes with growing remorse.

Should she not have brought so many snacks for her sister?

It’s all her fault sister got sick…

Ningning, seeing the guilt in Doudou’s eyes, said weakly, “It’s my own gluttony; it’s not your fault.”

Chen Bao furrowed his brows with authority, “Doudou, don’t bring her snacks in the future. Let her fend for herself.”

“Wow…”

Ningning truly broke down crying now. Her brother was undeniably her flesh and blood, too harsh!
