Chapter 949: Return to the Mushroom House
Relaxing and heading to the Mushroom House is never a wrong choice, and as for Teacher He's invitation, Ning Chen immediately agreed.
It's been so long since returning; he wonders if they have missed him.
Anyway, Ning Chen is currently just acting on his own wishful thinking, not knowing how things will be upon arrival.
"Then let's set off now and not linger here."
Hearing Teacher He's words, Ning Chen hurriedly nodded.
"Good, good, good, then let's go quickly; I haven't returned to the Mushroom House in so long."
Seeing Lin Yi's such spineless appearance, Ning Chen could only helplessly smile bitterly.
Coming outside, the passersby had already gathered all around this area; at a loss, the few of them hurriedly sprinted forward.
Ning Chen's RV was right ahead; as long as they got on, they could reach the safe zone.
"Ning Chen, Teacher He, Teacher San Lei, what are you three running for? Hurry and sign for us."
"I can do without the signature; I want a photo."
With too many onlookers surrounding them, breaking through the crowd was impossible; the people in front had already blocked Ning Chen and the others' path.
And at this moment, the chance of escaping was nearly zero, so they had no choice but to stop right where they were.
"It's just signing autographs; let's let the fans stop properly, otherwise there might be trampling injuries and the like later."
Hearing Ning Chen's words, Lin Yi's eyes widened.
"Are you crazy, Ning Chen! Look at how many people are around here."
"It'll pass in a moment."
Originally speaking tough words, but only when signing did Ning Chen feel the exhaustion.
"Oh my god, my arm is going to break."
Lin Yi shouted, but this group of crazy fans seemed not to care about these things; they would only pause if they could get what they wanted.
Ning Chen also felt very regretful at this moment; if he had broken through the crowd just now, he wouldn't have been so tired.
Teacher He was also dragged into this, but he remained unmoved in such a situation, taking them one by one.
The old ginger is spicier; even Ning Chen admired Teacher He.
"Don't cut in line; it's my turn."
Seeing someone cut in line, order still had to be maintained.
"Everyone, don't rush; if you keep cutting in line like this, we might just leave."
Ning Chen simply didn't indulge these people's bad habits; seeing that person cut in line, he immediately told him to go to the very back.
Urgency must be judged by the occasion, so one simply cannot bully people like this.
By the time everyone finished signing, the sky had also changed somewhat, seeming as if it were about to rain.
The sky was a bit dim, with thick clouds gathering; the Shengkending Society would surely make quite a stir.
And the RV was right before their eyes; it was only a few steps to reach it.
Entering the RV's interior, Lin Yi collapsed onto the bed, not moving a muscle.
"Ning Chen, I hate you!"
Hearing Lin Yi say such words, Ning Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud.
"Hating me won't help; in that situation just now, no one could have escaped, and there truly was no other way."
He himself hadn't expected it to be so crazy.
"What Ning Chen said makes sense; Lin Yi, just stop complaining."
Hearing Teacher He also speaking up for Ning Chen, Lin Yi fell silent.
This RV had everything inside; in his boredom, Teacher He turned on the computer.
And Ning Chen was responsible for driving his RV to the Mushroom House.
This journey was also extremely long; indeed, heavy rain began to fall from the sky, and that wasn't all.
Besides the heavy rain, there was also a roaring sound; Lin Yi, who had just fallen asleep, was woken up by the thunder.
Getting up, he dizzily looked around; Teacher He was watching the computer, and Ning Chen was driving.
"Oh, I'm really done; this thunder is so annoying; I just fell asleep."
Once the morning grumpiness hit, Lin Yi, feeling it, couldn't even consider the words he was saying.
"You should just go to sleep; there are earplugs in the drawer; if you don't mind, put them on; the soundproofing effect is very good."
Lin Yi listened to Ning Chen's words, opened the drawer, and indeed found earplugs; after putting them in his ears, he was almost cut off from the world.
"This thing is truly magical; Ning Chen, say something so I can hear."
"Yes, that's right; sleep well."
Lin Yi did not respond; instead, he lay down and fell asleep; perhaps because the earplugs' soundproofing effect was too good, he didn't hear Ning Chen's words.
Since that was the case, this could now be considered a warm moment, except for the thunder and the pitter-patter of rain hitting the RV roof.
Indeed, there were no other sounds.
And at this moment, Teacher He was searching for the latest hot news on the computer.
Looking at the screen, it was almost entirely filled with phrases like "Chinese leading the world."
As a Chinese person, Teacher He felt very proud at this moment.
Time ticked away second by second; there were also many vehicles passing by.
And the RV driven by Ning Chen was exceptionally stylish.
Outside, it was an incredibly huge vehicle.
Inside, it was like a small house, having almost everything.
Treating this place as one's own home is not bad at all.
"Ning Chen, stay a few more days when you go back this time; don't just come back today and leave tomorrow."
"How could that be? Teacher He, how could I ever do something like that? Besides, I already said yes, yes, yes—I'll relax."
Teacher He smiled contentedly, then nodded.
They were finally approaching the Mushroom House's location; ahead, Ning Chen could already see its general outline.
The Mushroom House's overall shape remained its usual oval.
Seeing they were nearly there, Ning Chen called out.
"We're almost there! We're almost there!"
At that moment, Teacher He promptly shut off his computer, but Lin Yi, wearing earplugs, couldn't hear a thing.
Ning Chen knew Lin Yi was wearing earplugs; once they reached the destination, he went over to the bed and shook Lin Yi.
But this guy was sleeping so soundly, he simply wouldn't wake up.
He shook him several times—almost no reaction at all.
Ning Chen then tried to remove the earplugs from Lin Yi's ears.
"Wake up!"
After pulling them out, Ning Chen shouted right into his ear; the sudden shock left Lin Yi utterly unprepared.
He clutched his ears; his ears felt as if they'd gone deaf.
"What are you doing, Ning Chen? Do you want to kill me?"
"Harming you benefits me nothing—we're here. Get out quickly."
Lin Yi reluctantly left the RV.
"I finally got a good sleep—I was just having a wonderful dream."
A wonderful dream? Ning Chen wasn't interested in anything else, but the words "wonderful dream" caught his attention.
"What kind of wonderful dream did you have? Tell me."
Lin Yi shook his head; he clearly remembered the dream's plot, but didn't want to say it.
"I forgot. It's been so long, and with your scare, who could remember? It must've been a good dream."
Hearing this, Ning Chen had no choice—he couldn't pry open the guy's mouth.
He let it drop.
The three entered the Mushroom House, carrying vegetables, fruits, and other items they'd bought.
The entire Mushroom House crew came out to greet them.
Seeing these two old friends, the others were very happy.
