“After some time, or a few years later, if we have the opportunity to visit this place again, we can come and have a look,” Huo Cheng said, “to see how our locks are doing and to see if our wishes have been fulfilled.”
Zhai Xingchen said: “Okay.”
“Then we’ve made an appointment.” Huo Cheng said with a smile.
It was easy to go up the mountain but hard to go down the mountain.
As they descended the mountain, the sky became gloomier and the wind became stronger.
Huo Cheng’s heart was filled with a kind of gentle love.
As he walked down the mountain, he looked back at Zhai Xingchen. Because the wind was a bit strong, Zhai Xingchen had been holding on to the railing. However, he was wearing thick gloves and it was inconvenient to hold on to the railing, so he walked very slowly.
He wanted to hold Zhai Xingchen’s hand, but he didn’t dare.
Love made people timid. He went from a man who could directly hug Zhai Xingchen to a coward who didn’t even dare to hold hands.
The greater the love in one’s heart, the more cautious one became.
“There is a bathroom down there, let’s take a rest there.” Zhai Xingchen said.
He saw that their cameraman’s hands had begun to shake.
It was so hard.
There was a canteen next to the restroom. On such a cold day, the owner was wrapped in a military coat but still stuck to his post there.
They went to buy three cups of hot drinks and hid in the canteen to rest for a while. The cameraman stretched out his hand to show them that he had frostbite on his hand.
“It’s been freezing for the past two days,” he said.
“I have an ointment that is very effective in treating chilblains. I will give it to you to try when I get back.” Huo Cheng said, “When I was in school, I also had chilblains on my feet, ears, and hands. The most serious one was, when I had chilblains all over my face. At first we boiled eggplant stalks in water and soaked them in hot water. You know, after you have chilblains, if you scald them with hot water, it will feel so sour and refreshing.”
Zhai Xingchen asked: “Does it work?”
“Actually, no matter what they are used for, they are all folk remedies from rural areas. But at that time, there was no better way. Later, when I was in high school in the county, our class teacher saw that I had severe frostbite and gave me a secret recipe, it’s very effective. It’s a herbal ointment with a bad smell, but after applying it for half a month, it really healed. I used it for two consecutive years and never had them again. This time I came here, I even brought a box specially.”
“Then your head teacher treated you very well.”
“That’s right, I was the star of our class when I was in high school.” Huo Cheng laughed, “I’ll show you my high school photos when I get the chance. I looked very stupid at that time.”
The cameraman said, “I’ve seen your high school graduation photos.”
Zhai Xingchen asked with a smile: “How is it?”
The cameraman said: “You can see him at a glance, he stands out from the crowd.”
“I was just a big fool back then.” Huo Cheng laughed, “Have you ever seen the photos of Xingchen when he was a child? How about it? Isn’t it cute?”
“He’s been good since he was a kid.” said the cameraman.
“It must be cute.” Huo Cheng said, his heart itching, thinking about what Zhai Xingchen might have looked like when he was a child. He must be very delicate and cute.
Unlike him, who had been dark and muscular since he was a child.
“The program team asked us to provide childhood photos before. I originally thought they would use them when we first met. Isn’t it true that some variety shows will show childhood photos for everyone to guess when they first introduce themselves?” Zhai Xingchen said, “The photos I provided are from when I was quite small.”
“What I provided was a high school graduation photo. I don’t have any photos from when I was a kid. I only had two before college, one junior high school graduation photo and one high school graduation photo. I didn’t put the junior high school graduation photo away well. It got damp and the whole thing was spent.” Huo Cheng said and turned to look at Zhai Xingchen: “I really want to see what you looked like when you were a child.”
As he spoke, he suddenly stood up and moved Zhai Xingchen to the middle: “You squat inside.”
He walked around to the other side of Zhai Xingchen and squatted down where he originally squatted.
He saw that there was always wind on Zhai Xingchen’s side.
But they didn’t squat there for long when Zhai Xingchen asked, “Is it snowing?”
It was really snowing, but it was just light snow, very fine, and people were still climbing up.
“It’s snowing, why don’t you go up?” Zhai Xingchen said.
The owner of the canteen next to him said: “Many people come up specifically to see the snow scene when it snows. There is also a hotel up here. Many people go up after dark and wait to see the sunrise the next day.”
Huo Cheng said, “If I knew we would have spent the night up there too.”
Huo Cheng said, taking the camera from the cameraman’s hand, and said, “I’ll hold it for you for a while, let’s go.”
It had started to snow, so they accelerated their descent down the mountain. It took them nearly four hours just to go up and down the mountain, and it started to get dark.
As a result, when they arrived at the foot of the mountain, no car from the program team came to pick them up.
The cameraman called the program team, who said, “There was something wrong with the car on the road. The engine broke down. When Hu Ying’s car comes back, they will pick you up.”
“Next door is the Elk Park, there are resort hotels, and there are villages nearby. You won’t be cold or hungry, so don’t worry too much.” Guo Bing said, “We will definitely ensure your safety.”
“Pei Xu and Qingning have gone back?” Zhai Xingchen said, “Hu Ying and Yan Zhi haven’t come back yet?”
Pei Xu and Lin Qingning went back early, which was to be expected. There were not many things to do in Elk Park, and an hour was enough. However, Hu Ying and Yan Zhi hadn’t come back yet.
Huo Cheng was also surprised and said, “I thought they would be the first to come back.”
“Then where are we going now?” Zhai Xingchen asked.
“Let’s find a restaurant to have a meal. When I came here, I saw that there seemed to be a restaurant here.”
There was a small village just next to Elk Park. There was a house at the entrance of the village that was used for farmhouse entertainment.
They went in and had a big North-eastern stew.
Hu Ying and Yan Zhi not only visited Ice and Snow City today, but also participated in many special store activities. They were cold and tired. They fell asleep when they got in the car and took a nap.
But as soon as the car arrived at the stop, Hu Ying immediately became lively and entered Cabin No. 1 with his cell phone in hand.
After entering, he saw Pei Xu and Duan Yihua sitting in the living room.
“Zhai Xingchen!” he shouted.
“Xingchen and Brother Huo haven’t come back yet.” Wen Nuo answered him.
“Not back yet?” Hu Ying asked in surprise.
Yan Zhi came in immediately, looked around, then went back to the room to change clothes, took out a box from his pocket and placed it on the window sill, while opening the window a crack.
After changing clothes, he came out and asked, “Aren’t Xingchen and Brother Huo back yet?”
Wen Nuo said: “No.”
“They won’t be stuck on the mountain, right?” Hu Ying looked at the heavy snow outside and said, “It’s such a heavy snow outside.”
“Probably not.” Duan Yihua said.
“I just went to ask the program team. The program team said that there was a small problem with the car that was sent to pick them up. They are dealing with it and told us not to worry.” Wen Nuo said.
“Is the program team causing trouble?” Hu Ying looked at Pei Xu and the others.
He knew that in this kind of variety show, sometimes the program team would deliberately design some plots to increase the watchability of the program.
For example, when everyone in the drama went on a date, one couple always arrived home in the middle of the night, which intensified feelings and conflicts.
Oh, none of this could escape his eyes.
But guesses were just guesses, and everyone couldn’t sit still.
That was Huo Cheng, netizens said he was the sexiest!
Zhai Xingchen wouldn’t stay out and spend the night with him today, right?
