Battle of Applen

That night, together with Ji's mother, he put his father, who was drunk and came home late, into bed. Ji Ning expressed his idea of ​​going out for a walk. Ji's mother seemed to see something, but she didn't say anything. She just told him to be careful when going out.The next day, Ji Ning set off back to the city, borrowed a car from a friend, loaded up the packed items and set off.What they went to was not the scenic spots on the traditional tourist route, but all the way forward along the southwest. On the way, he saw the scenery and human beings that were completely different from the city he stayed in. The customs of the ethnic minorities were different from those of the Han people. Listening to their hometown In other words, Ji Ning has a real feeling of returning from prosperity to simplicity.The friends who accompanied each other went from being unfamiliar to each other at the beginning to being very familiar with each other. They didn't talk about their identities, their jobs, but the scenery. It seemed that they had escaped from the framework of the city and fell into the embrace of nature.

Their last stop was a mountain somewhere in Yunnan. The climate is very hot in summer and autumn, especially in the subtropical zone of Yunnan. You can sweat profusely just standing there. Fortunately, the mountains and forests are no better than the land. The cooler it is, the harder the road will be.On the way, a donkey friend scratched his arm, and Ji Ning helped him apply medicine to bandage it up. The other party was enduring the pain while laughing at himself that it was too much time to come here to seek guilt, and the others all laughed.

At night, they found a relatively flat place to camp. Ji Ning sat by the campfire, smelling the smell of nature and listening to the occasional wind in the silence. At this moment, her heart was extremely peaceful.It was a little cold on the mountain at night, he took out a thick coat and wrapped it around his body, put his hands in the pockets, but accidentally touched a box-shaped thing, his heart moved, and he took it out.It was a small dark blue box covered with a layer of soft velvet. Ji Ning touched it unconsciously, but dared not open it.At that time, I fled from the United States in a hurry, but forgot to leave it behind. I looked for it after I came back, but I didn't expect it to be in the pocket of this coat.Sighing, he opened the bag and hid it in. When his eyes touched the black pen-like object in the inner bag, he smiled wryly. Shaw related things.At this time, his teammates called him to sleep, and he responded, and climbed into the tent with his backpack.

At around [-]:[-] the next morning, they were woken up by the team leader: "Get up and watch the sunrise!" The teammate joked with their sleepy eyes open, "Just watch the sunrise before we reach the top of the mountain." The team leader despised He: "Isn't the sunrise halfway up the mountain a sunrise?" A group of people laughed.Ji Ning yawned and climbed out of the tent, and happened to see the eastern sky turning pale. Several teammates around them washed and tidied up with the items they brought. until they shouted, "Come out, come out!"

A few strands of golden light appeared from the place where the fish belly was originally white, and then slowly spread to the surroundings. A bright red sun slowly rose, and the sky that was originally at night was suddenly infected by the light, and it was another new day... …Ji Ning squinted her eyes, and heard the admiration of her teammates, but what was rolling in her mind was the summer vacation when she was a freshman and a sophomore. He and Han Xiao watched the sunrise together on Huangshan Mountain. The sun was still the same The sun, but the people around him are no longer there.

After watching the sunrise and having breakfast, they packed their things and continued on the road. Today is the last day of the self-driving tour. They plan to climb to the top of the main peak and then go down from the opposite side, and then drive home.Although the separation was imminent, they were still climbing with great enthusiasm. Because Ji Ning had been nestled in school before, her physical strength was not as good as those who often ran outside, so it was very difficult to climb the mountain. During the break, the team liked to joke Old Wang then buried him: "Xiao Ji's body is not good, he can't stand up after walking a few steps, and he needs to practice more when he goes back."

Although Ji Ning was tired, she still replied: "Uncle Wang, you are always strong, I dare not compare with you."

Lao Wang laughed and said, "I'm getting old, and my legs and feet are not very agile. Hey, if you really want to say that you are old and strong, you should be our captain!"

When the captain heard someone talking about him, he grinned: "Old Wang, I don't seem that old, do I?"

A group of people laughed loudly, at this time Lao Wang started to gossip again and asked Ji Ning, "Xiao Ji, do you have a girlfriend?"

Ji Ning was drinking water, but he choked on being asked, wiped the water from his mouth, and he replied: "No." If it's her boyfriend, there is one, uh, maybe the word "front" should be added.

Old Wang wiped his forehead with a towel: "See, you are also 26, [-], so hurry up and find someone who can live a life. Love can't be eaten these days, only life is the most real thing."

Ji Ning's heart moved slightly, and she asked, "Uncle Wang, what do you think is love?"

Several people around burst into laughter, complaining one after another: "Xiao Ji, you asked Lao Wang this question, isn't it embarrassing him~"

"Go, go, go," Lao Wang made a "get out" gesture to those who made fun of him, "Don't look at me now, I was a grass in our village back then!" Someone yelled strangely: "Dog tail!" Grass!" Pharaoh pretended to be angry and said, "Get out of your dog's tail grass!" There was another laugh.

After everyone had laughed enough, Lao Wang replied: "I'm just a layman. I think love means having someone by your side, giving birth to your child, cooking and washing your clothes. Hey, I didn't say nanny! A wife can talk to a nanny." Compare it! Your wife cooks and washes your baby because she loves you, understand? The nanny needs money!"

Ji Ning said: "Then what if you and your lover have different personalities? Or she always likes to do some things by herself and doesn't let you know, and she won't tell you until you find out afterwards. What should I do?"

Old Wang frowned: "What do you mean, stealing a man?"

Ji Ninghan: "That's not it, it's just some things. She thinks it's for your own good to do it, but she always doesn't ask your opinion. Whether you want it or not, she will do it."

Old Wang asked: "Then after she does it, will it be good or bad for you?"

Ji Ning pondered: "Okay."

Lao Wang slapped his knee: "Then what's the point, if she really loves you, will she still hurt you? Everyone has a little secret, just like me, my wife still doesn't know that I have a secret." Private money, hehehe..."

At this time, the captain smiled at him: "How about I help you tell your wife when you go back?"

Old Wang turned pale with shock: "No way! How could you do this, Old Sun!!"

The people in the company laughed kindly, but Ji Ning fell into deep thought. If he really loved you, would he still harm you...?Although Han Xiao didn't tell him anything, he was selfish and hateful, but everything he did was for their future... no!Ji Ning patted herself on the head, how could she forget the process of being hurt by him just because of the result, she was too soft-hearted to forgive him easily when he just came back.

After the rest, the group set off again. About an hour later, the team leader shouted from the front: "There is a steep slope here. Everyone, walk by the side and be careful." Several people walked forward cautiously, Lao Wang was the second, Ji Ning was the third one. When he stepped on the steep slope, a sudden change occurred.Old Wang who was walking in front didn't know what happened, slipped his foot, and fell to the side slope. Ji Ning and the captain who was walking in front screamed, subconsciously grabbed his clothes, and used inertia to go to the other side pull.But Lao Wang is a grown man after all, the weight of falling down is not light, Ji Ning grabbed him and was taken away by his force, almost fell along with him, but luckily the person behind him quickly fixed it with a shovel , and the other hand firmly grasped the shoulder strap of his backpack, which saved a disaster.

After several people sat down in the safe zone, they realized that their hands and feet were weak and their hearts were afraid. Among them, Lao Wang and Ji Ning reacted the most. He patted his chest and cried out, desperately expressing his gratitude to Captain Ji Ning and the others.Looking at the abyss below the slope, Ji Ning couldn't help her heart thumping. She hadn't recovered from the danger just now. If her teammates didn't hold her back, he and Lao Wang might have to confess that they were here. Thinking about it, I can't help feeling cold in my hands and feet.

"Not good!" The captain looked at the empty hand and his face was livid. Everyone jumped and asked what was wrong.

"When I was pulling Lao Wang just now, the GPS navigator in my hand fell." The captain frowned and said, "I thought this self-driving tour was a short distance, so I didn't bring a second one, which is terrible. "

"Then what should we do?" Ji Ning and the others came back to their senses and asked anxiously, "Who still brought it?" The others shook their heads.

The captain looked at the sun that was already slanting to the west, and gritted his teeth: "We can't go forward, the road ahead is impossible without a navigator, let's go back the same way!"

"I'm really sorry everyone, it's all my fault!" Old Wang blamed himself.

Ji Ning comforted him: "It's not your fault, after all, anything can happen in the wild."

"Yes," the captain said, "now is not the time to blame ourselves, we all go back and try to get down the mountain before dark!"

================================================================================================= =

On the streets of a small town in Yunnan, a slender man is particularly noticeable. Unlike the locals and tourists, the man is wearing an expensive suit. The fly in the ointment is that it is a little wrinkled. He looks very handsome, but a little depressed.This strange combination made the man look handsome and lonely, and attracted the attention of many girls and aunts.

This melancholy man is Han Xiao. After he bought some things on the street, he walked into a small hotel. The proprietress of the hotel was watching TV at the front desk. Seeing him coming back, the proprietress greeted him very warmly. Han Xiao greeted her Smiling lightly, he went upstairs and returned to the room. The proprietress looked at his back and said intoxicatedly: "A handsome man looks so beautiful when he is decadent. This is melancholy..." The proprietress snorted next to him, and put on a melancholy pose: "Then what about me?" The proprietress gave him a white look: "You are half dead like this."

Open the door and walk into the room, the phone rang, Han Xiao glanced at the number and answered: "What's the matter?"

Secretary Li's voice came from the opposite side: "Mr. Han, your father came to the company today and asked about your whereabouts..."

Han Xiao frowned: "Didn't I tell you that no matter who comes, tell him that I am on vacation?"

"But Mr. Han knows that you have returned to China, so..."

Han Xiao pinched the bridge of his nose: "Okay, don't bother me with this kind of thing."

Secretary Li said cautiously: "There is one more thing..."

"Say!" Han Xiao's tone was not very good.

"Well, Mr. Huggins also came to the company to look for you. I said you were on vacation, and he asked me to talk to you."

Luke?Han Xiao frowned so fast he could kill a fly: "What did he say?"

Secretary Li was really sweating profusely: "He said, first of all, thank you for the fat beating, and at the same time, thank you for kicking Wang Ruixi back to him, and secondly... if you don't go back, he will mercilessly poach you Clients of our company..." Well, secretary is the hardest job in the world, is there anyone!

Han Xiao finished listening with a blank expression: "You tell him, what is his mother's love, as long as he can bear my revenge afterwards." After finishing speaking, he hung up the call.Secretary Li held the microphone for a long time and couldn't get back to his senses. The boss swears just now?Don't worry about it...

Throwing the phone on the bed, Han Xiao was a little irritable. After that night, he did not return to the United States, but parked the car not far from Ji Ning's house and spent the night.Sitting in the car, he thought a lot, from when they met, knew each other and loved each other to when they separated, he couldn't help but smile when he thought of the interesting part, and his eyes couldn't help dimming when he thought of the sad part, until he remembered Ji Ning's sentence again "Break up", I couldn't help the pain... When she said the breakup cruelly, did Ji Ning also feel this way in her heart, now he bears it, it hurts, it really hurts.What kind of gentleness, what kind of calmness, what kind of outstanding Han Xiao are all fake, he is just a selfish coward... Later, he couldn't resist the heavy sleepiness and fell asleep. In the dream, he seemed to see When it came to Ji Ning who was crying, he wanted to hug him, but he couldn't touch him. In the ups and downs, he struggled to wake up, just in time to see Ji Ning walking out of the house.

Can't help but start the car and follow his car, not for anything, just to see him.Watching him meet with the convoy from a distance, and then follow them through the roads to reach the destination, where Ji Ning can't see, he quietly goes on the same journey with him.Seeing him gradually regaining his smile, he was relieved but also a little lonely. Does the person he loves really no longer need him... He didn't stop until they were about to climb the mountain, and he couldn't follow anymore. Will reveal stuffing.So he secretly asked for a room in the hotel where they stayed, and parked his car nearby. As long as he guarded their car, he would not be afraid that they would not come back. Thinking like this, Han Xiao really slept well in bed .

Turning his head to look at the phone, it was already 4:110 in the afternoon. He had inquired about their itinerary and knew that they were scheduled to go down the mountain this afternoon to end the trip.There was a burst of cooking smell outside the window, Han Xiao frowned, it was almost dinner time, why didn't they come back... Ignoring the uneasiness in his heart, he waited in the room until ten o'clock in the evening, he couldn't sit still. He paused, took out his mobile phone and dialed Ji Ning, but he received a reminder that the other party was not in the service area. He dialed several times in a row and got the same result. After Shan Hou lost contact with the news, he couldn't bear to call [-] anymore.

"I'm sorry, sir, we don't accept filing a case if they disappeared for less than 24 hours." The woman who answered the phone said coldly.

Han Xiao roared uncontrollably: "They said they would be back around 6:[-] p.m., and it's been four or five hours now. Isn't this considered missing?"

The other party still said routinely: "I'm sorry, it's not been 24 hours..."

Hanging up the phone fiercely, Han Xiao grabbed a handful of hair irritably, thinking that Ji Ning and the others might lose their way in the strange mountain, or what accident happened, his heart shrank into a ball, God, don't Do this to him!There was nothing the police could do now. It was absolutely impossible for him to wait another 20 hours. He stood where he was, took a deep breath, and searched for every possible solution in his mind.At this time, he really hated himself for putting his power in the United States. The far water cannot save the near fire.
