Chapter 543: Chapter 544: The Ginseng Will Run Away 1
After finishing the meal, everyone continued walking for over five hours, reaching the middle of the deep mountains.
Zhang Niu told everyone to stop, "Everyone listen up, tonight we will camp here for the night. Find a spot and set up your tents.
Boys and girls will share a tent, this is the deep mountains, there are all kinds of poisonous insects. Take out the insect repellent powder prepared by Doctor Yun and sprinkle it around your tents when you sleep.
Additionally, youâve run out of rations. If you donât want to go hungry, find something to eat around you. Doctor Yun should have told you what wild plants are edible and which are not.
You can move freely now, but remember not to step outside the forest boundary, or there might be accidents. If you encounter danger, signal with the indicator light!"
"Got it!"
The group responded in unison and immediately started to act.
Nianyang and Shi Nuan quickly set up their tent, and Shi Nuan said,
"Nianyang, letâs go over there and find some fruit to quench our thirst!"
[Master, I sense a century-old ginseng in the forest to the southeast.]
A chime sounded in Nianyangâs mind from Tuantuan, and her eyes lit up. Faced with Shi Nuanâs suggestion, she said,
"Letâs split up, you head northwest, Iâll go southeast, letâs see who finds more food?"
"Alright, Iâll go now, be careful!"
"You too!"
Nianyang shouldered her backpack to avoid attention and walked towards the southeast. Chu Huan, who had been watching Nianyangâs movements, wanted to follow her as she was being very cautious.
But He Huixi held her back, "Chu Huan, itâs almost evening, shouldnât you introduce me to your brother?"
Chu Huan, impatient, replied, "Why are you in such a hurry? Weâll talk when it gets dark!"
He Huixi widened her eyes, "Once itâs dark, everyone will be sleeping. Do you not want to introduce me to your brother, or do you actually have no connection with Coach Chu?"
When Chu Huan heard this, concerned about her reputation, she immediately compromised,
"Alright, alright, Iâll take you to find my brother now!"
"I already saw Coach Chu heading northwest, letâs hurry over now!"
He Huixi showed a shy expression, which made Chu Huan feel nauseated. She thought, what a lovesick girl; is she even worthy of becoming my Saozi?
Chu Zhan was sitting under a big tree resting, sorting out his notes, when he suddenly heard someone calling him.
He looked up and saw Chu Huan dragging a girl over, his face slightly darkened,
"How many times have I told you that weâre in training, donât call me brother, call me coach!"
Chu Huan retorted, "But I heard Gu Nianyang call you Big Brother Chu, and you didnât object at all?"
Chu Zhan was at a loss for words; who knows why?
Maybe itâs because Gu Nianyang is better looking than Chu Huan?
That might lead to misunderstandings if said aloud!
Chu Zhan calmly asked, "What do you want?"
Chu Huan pointed to He Huixi, who had a shy expression, "Coach Chu, this is my good friend He Huixi!"
"Hello, Coach Chu." He Huixiâs face turned completely red as she looked at the tall and handsome Chu Zhan.
Chu Zhan, quick-witted, immediately recognized that this girl had ulterior motives towards him, something he was long accustomed to.
With a blank expression, he responded with a hmm, "What do you want from me?"
He Huixi stammered, "Coach Chu, I just wanted to get to know you. Iâm the heiress of the He Family, one of the three major families. When training is over, could you visit my house?"
