Chapter 181

~4 min read 683 words

Because they had gone for a spin in the rainforest earlier.

Lunchtime was a bit late.

The withered leaves gathered from the rainforest were mixed with egg liquid and fried.

And those wild mushrooms were used to make soup.

Both smelled wonderful!

After the meal, Reba helped Aunt Chen clear away the bowls and chopsticks.

Qin Feng heard Uncle Xu was going to reinforce the sheep pen for the little lambs, so he helped him stake out some wooden posts. Soon, the sun was about to set.

Qin Feng and Reba bid farewell to Uncle Yu and Aunt Chen.

Aunt Chen said warmly, "How about staying for dinner before you go?"

Qin Feng smiled and shook his head, "She's timid; walking at night, she'd hang on me, which is very tiring." Reba thought it over carefully and realized that was indeed the case.

Uncle Yu chimed in, "Then head back before it gets dark. Come visit often when you have time." Before parting, Qin Feng left Uncle Yu his phone number.

"If you need any help, just give a shout; I drive a Wuling and can get there in no time." Reba nodded frantically beside him.

After all, Uncle Yu's son is a border guard and isn't around.

This area is quite remote.

If an emergency arises, it's good to have someone to look out for each other.

The sun set in the west.

Qin Feng and Reba returned along the path they had come.

That little Wuling was parked by the roadside where it didn't obstruct traffic, and after a whole day, no one had slapped a ticket on it.

This place is indeed somewhat remote.

The equipment ran out of battery, and the live stream went black.

Reba got back into the car, obediently fastened her seatbelt, and then sighed.

Qin Feng teased, "Did that wine bottle hurt you that badly?"

Reba shook her head, "We'll be reaching the 【Gathering in the Aihe】 segment soon, right?"

Qin Feng nodded, "Isn't it nice to get to go out? It's a business trip."

Reba rolled the window down a crack; the cool evening breeze blew through her long hair.

She hadn't even had time to speak.

Qin Feng said, "Open the window a bit less; your hair is whipping me in the face."

Looking at the sunset scenery, Reba said, "Will we be leaving after the next segment? What about our little house? I can't bear to leave this small courtyard."

Qin Feng replied, "I checked earlier; we're just going out temporarily and will be back in a few days."

Upon hearing this,

Reba's earlier slight melancholy vanished instantly!

So after the Gathering in the Aihe, there's still a splitting off~

Making Reba worry for nothing.

Just a moment ago, Reba, who had been a bit silly thinking about this, now felt like a little flower in spring, standing tall again!

The little Wuling drove along the winding mountain road back to the cottage.

Looking at Qin Feng's profile, Reba said, "Actually, I really hoped that stone tablet might contain some treasure information."

Qin Feng, however, felt that everything should just follow its natural course.

The abilities rewarded by the system allow one to slack off and make money; why bother using one's brain?

Immediately after, Qin Feng spotted a tiny, tiny little problem.

Reba saw his thoughtful expression.

She thought to herself, Qin Feng must also want to make a fortune? Then oo.? oo could marry me! Reba shook her head; what was she even thinking!

Smiling, she asked Qin Feng, "What are you thinking about?"

Qin Feng replied, "The little Wuling is almost out of gas; I'm wondering if we can make it home safely." Reba:......

A dozen or so minutes later.

Huff-puff—

The capable little Wuling finally arrived safely at the small courtyard.

It really is so dedicated!

Just as the two reached the entrance to the small courtyard, Qin Feng's phone rang.

And it was Director Yan Min calling.

Qin Feng picked up the phone in confusion, only to learn that there was new news regarding that stone slab!
