“As long as you like it.”
In this way, the shoes that he had spent so much effort to choose were not in vain. To make Le Wan comfortable, he had even treated the shoes in advance so that the edges of the shoes would soften and not hurt her feet.
However, he didn’t plan to talk about these things anymore.
Zhai Jing held Le Wan’s hand.
“Since you insist on climbing with me, let’s go.”
Unfortunately, although the shoes were comfortable, when they really climbed the mountain, their feet would still be tired after a long time. Le Wan held Zhai Jing’s hand and silently climbed more than two thousand steps with gritted teeth. The two of them arrived at a pavilion.
Le Wan let go of his hand and sat on the stone bench, panting. She leaned against the railing.
“No, I need to rest first.”
Her current body hadn’t experienced the hardships of her previous life and was still the body of a rich young lady who had never suffered and didn’t like to exercise. Even though Le Wan knew that climbing a mountain should be done at a constant speed, otherwise, it would become more and more difficult to climb in the future, she had the heart but not the physical strength. Therefore, she raised her hand and admitted defeat first.
She raised a finger and said to Zhai Jing,
“Give me ten minutes. When I’m done with this, I’ll be able to continue climbing.”
In comparison, Zhai Jing’s breathing was only a little heavier, but he wasn’t panting too heavily.
He placed his backpack on the stone bench, unzipped it, and took out a bottle of energy drink. He unscrewed the cap and brought it to Le Wan’s mouth.
“You’ve sweated so much just now. Come and replenish your energy first.”
Le Wan couldn’t be bothered to make a move, so she took his hand and gave him her mouth directly.
Zhai Jing had no choice but to lower the opening of the bottle a little. After seeing her take a small sip, she stopped drinking.
He asked,
“Aren’t you going to drink more?
Le Wan shook her head.
“It’s not good.”
It wasn’t sweet or sour.
“This is the taste of the energy drink.”
After all, what they focused on wasn’t the taste, but the function.
Seeing that Le Wan really didn’t like to drink it, Zhai Jing retracted his hand and aimed the bottle at his mouth. He drank half of the drink in two or three mouthfuls.
“Don’t drink so urgently.” Le Wan frowned and reminded him.
After exercise, when the body is hot, drinking cold drinks in large mouthfuls would irritate the digestive tract, which could easily cause stomach discomfort and even cause accidents such as heart attacks. Therefore, he had to be careful.
“Alright, I understand.”
Zhai Jing tightened the cap of the bottle. He didn’t mention that the drink had been in his backpack for too long and was already a little warm, so it was fine even if he drank it in big gulps.
He tightened the cap and put the drink back into his backpack. Then, he took out a bottle of mineral water, unscrewed it, and brought it back to Le Wan’s mouth.
“Drink some water.”
“Alright. ”
Le Wan had wanted to drink from his hand like before, but when she looked up, she saw a man and a woman walking into the pavilion.
The other party should be an old couple. The two of them noticed their intimate actions and stared at them with burning eyes. They had a smile on their faces as if they had been through it.
Le Wan blushed and shyly averted her gaze. She took the water from Zhai Jing’s hand and lowered her head to drink slowly.
When Zhai Jing saw her expression, the corners of his mouth also curled up into a smile. He nodded slightly at the two old people as a greeting. Then, he took out a small map from his backpack and studied it.
“What are you looking for?” Le Wan asked curiously. “I’m looking for other paths to go up the mountain faster.”
Le Wan shook her head.
“No, no, no. Let’s take the main road. It’s too dangerous to take the small road.”
The news often reported that tourists had accidents while climbing mountains and taking small paths. Le Wan felt that there was no need for them to take this risk.
Zhai Jing felt that there was no need to be afraid.
“I’ve checked beforehand. There are quite a lot of people here, and the mountain road is not too steep. As long as there are no accidents, there should be no problem taking the small road.”
The reason why walking on the small road was dangerous was that the small road was deserted. In addition, the road was relatively steep, so pedestrians could easily slip and fall, and it was difficult to rescue them. Secondly, if a single woman took the small road, she would easily be targeted by people with bad intentions.
According to Zhai Jing’s investigation, there were several small paths up the mountain, and the flow of people wasn’t small. With him and Le Wan, they could take care of each other, so there should be no need to worry about these problems.
“It’s mainly because you’re so tired now. If we really follow the normal route, I’m afraid that you…”
Zhai Jing wanted to say that Le Wan couldn’t climb up, but before he could say anything, he received a warning look from Le Wan, so he immediately swallowed his words..
