Chapter 870: 869. Laugh for a lifetime
"Shushu, Shushu, have you reached the airport yet?"
"I remember the boarding pass said nine o’clock and now it’s six in the morning; don’t tell me you’re already there."
"Just 20 more minutes to drive! Xiao Ye Zi and I have already set off!"
"..."
Getting to the airport three hours ahead of time, Tang Shu expressed her incomprehension.
Ye Xiaohui’s voice came through the phone, "Don’t mind her. I was also woken up early in the morning. She was so excited she didn’t sleep all night."
"Oh, I just find it all so fascinating! Why do you two seem so nonchalant about it? We are going to collect herbs near the Kunlun Mountains!"
Tang Shu opened her eyes and got out of bed, walking on the floor with her fluffy slippers, her idle left hand pulling back the curtains to reveal the scenery outside. At that moment, a morning light appeared in the east, the fiery red sun barely peeking through.
"Have you contacted the other members of the club?"
"Two classmates went near the Kunlun Mountains yesterday. Our club president lives nearby, so he doesn’t need to rush."
The reason for visiting the Kunlun Mountains to collect herbs during Labor Day initially stemmed from an activity organized by the club they had joined, decided one week ago.
For Cheng Ranran and Ye Xiaohui, who had always lived in the capital, it was a moderate challenge, yet the journey was very novel.
As for why Tang Shu agreed to go with them, it was because the place she would soon be assessed was not far from the Kunlun Mountains, perfectly timed just a few days later. If she finished the club’s herb collection work, she wouldn’t have to return with them.
When Tang Shu met up with the other two at the airport, it was already 8:20 AM.
"Shushu, have you had breakfast?"
While stuffing a piece of cake into her own mouth, Cheng Ranran pulled out another from her pouch and handed it over.
"Wait a sec, I have some milk here."
"You’re pretty well prepared, huh?"
Indeed, Tang Shu hadn’t had breakfast; she’d spent all her time catching up on sleep. She unwrapped the cake package and took a bite—it was mango-flavored.
Cheng Ranran nodded matter-of-factly, "Of course, we have to be fully prepared. We’re heading to the Kunlun Mountains. What if we end up spending the whole day there? We must bring extra food and drink."
Tang Shu paused, "We do need to bring more water, and we can just buy some at a supermarket near the Kunlun Mountains when we get there."
As for food?
She had never worried about it when in the mountains.
As long as there wasn’t a famine, Tang Shu would never go hungry.
Hearing this, Cheng Ranran stiffened and suddenly slapped her forehead, "Damn! Why didn’t I think of buying stuff when we get there?"
Ye Xiaohui glanced at her pink suitcase, suddenly having an uneasy guess, "You didn’t bring a lot of water, did you?"
"If I say yes, would you hit me?"
"No," Ye Xiaohui replied expressionlessly, "I’ll just mock you forever."
Moron!
Cheng Ranran read these two words in her childhood friend’s eyes—bright and unmasked.
"Oh, come on. It’s my first time going out like this; I needed to consider everything. I even brought you two bottles..."
Her voice grew quieter, fading until it was almost inaudible.
Tang Shu quickly finished off the small piece of cake and laughed, "Well, that’s commendable. It’s better than being completely unprepared; it’s natural to lack experience on your first trip."
"Yeah, yeah, exactly! Shushu is always right!"
"That’s her comforting you, your IQ is beyond saving."
