Shocking! The school heartthrob who was adopted by a wealthy family is actually a heiress!

Chapter 43 You really have a talent for being a simp.
Qin Qiong was in much better condition than yesterday, but still lacked energy: "It seems that Mom can't go with you to your activities. Zhao Zhao and your brothers have fun."

With Qin Qiong ill, Qin Zhao's desire to play had largely vanished.

Qin Qiong saw what she was thinking, took a camera from the table, and handed it to Qin Zhao: "Remember to take lots of nice photos to show your mother when you get back."

Qin Zhao knew she didn't want to burden him, so he hugged her and hummed in agreement, "Mom, get well soon."

Before the sentimental atmosphere could dissipate, Lin Shi's voice rang out: "Qin Zhao, aren't you ashamed?"

She asked her mother for a hug first thing in the morning.

Qin Qiong smiled and said, "My precious eldest son is here. Come here and let Mom give him a hug."

"..."

Before leaving, Qin Qiong repeatedly told him, "Take good care of yourself and Zhaozhao."

Lin Shi gave a perfunctory reply.

The hotel breakfast can be eaten in the restaurant or delivered to the room; Qin Zhao and his group chose to eat at the restaurant.

The five-star hotel truly lives up to its name, offering a wide variety of Chinese and Western dishes. Drinks such as orange juice, cola, chrysanthemum tea, milk, and yogurt were all laid out in a row, and there was even a noodle chef cooking noodles and vegetables right in front of you.

Qin Zhao was overwhelmed by the choices.

She cooked half a bowl of rice noodles, then took two pieces of toast and a fried egg, two roasted chicken wings, a braised chicken leg, and some cute little snacks.

In no time, the plates were full.

Lin Shi looked away with disdain: "He eats more than a pig."

Qin Zhao didn't get angry, and just hummed in agreement: "I ate more than you."

"..."

"Are you asking for a beating?!"

Chen Yu picked at his ear helplessly, placed his plate next to them, and interrupted the tense atmosphere: "How do you two manage to argue the moment you meet?"

Who argued with him?

Qin Zhao thought she had been as friendly as she could be to Lin Shi, but he was too despicable, and she didn't want to keep putting up with him.

She looked at Shen Yanci who was walking over and sighed, wishing that Shen Yanci and Lin Shi could switch places.

The restaurant has huge glass windows on three sides that reflect the sea, creating a shimmering effect.

Qin Zhao was engrossed in enjoying his food when a young woman patted him on the shoulder: "Hey bro, can I add you on WeChat?"

Qin Zhao's mouth was stuffed full of rice noodles, and his cheeks were bulging.

She exchanged glances with the three people at the table. Lin Shi scoffed and looked away, Shen Yanci continued to eat slowly and deliberately, while Chen Yu glanced at the girl a couple more times.

"Are you also here for tourism? We can exchange travel experiences."

The young lady was poised and confident. Qin Zhao puffed out his cheeks and took out his phone from his pocket. The two added each other as friends.

"Let's chat online then, you're so cute."

Qin Zhao glanced around at the other people at the table, feeling quite pleased. This was partly because he had been praised, and partly because the young lady hadn't added any of Shen Yanci or the others.

Does this mean she's quite likable?

"What are you showing off for?" Lin Shi snorted.

"You're envious?" Qin Zhao said slowly.

"Envious of you? My foot! Too many people are chasing after me, it's so annoying!"

The young woman sent a message, first exchanging pleasantries, and then asking about their travel plans.

Qin Zhao felt it would be impolite not to reply to the messages, so he paused his meal and picked up his phone to reply.

"Looks like he's worthless." Lin Shi scoffed.

Qin Zhao ignored him. The young lady was giving him plenty of emotional support, praising him for being amazing and thoughtful.

Qin Zhao also sent her all the posts he had compiled online.

Finally, the girl asked, "Hey buddy, does the guy next to you have a girlfriend?"

"..."

Qin Zhao's gaze slowly shifted to the face of the person next to him. The azure sea and orange sky made the boy's features even more distinct, and the ends of his black hair swayed slightly. Everything else became part of the background.

He lifted his eyelids, his eyes dark and deep: "See if I can make your appetite even better?" "..."

The girl sent another cute emoji, and Qin Zhao replied: "That girl just asked you if you have a girlfriend."

After a brief silence, a huge burst of laughter erupted from the side.

"Hahahahaha!"

Lin Shi laughed the loudest, patting Chen Yu's shoulder as he laughed: "Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter! You were looking so infatuated just now, hahaha, but you didn't expect she was just using you as a wingman, hahaha."

Qin Zhao: "At least, she added me, not you."

"Hahahahahaha!"

Chen Yu: "Oh, I forgot to tell you, that girl asked Yan Ci for her WeChat first, and only contacted you after being rejected. I thought you were her new target, but it turns out her target is still Yan Ci."

"..."

Chen Yu looked at Qin Zhao with genuine admiration and raised his glass to her: "But to be fair, Brother Qiang-Kiss, you really have a talent for being a simp!"

"Hahahahahaha!"

"If one day you actually manage to woo some unattainable beauty or a super goddess, I won't be surprised at all."

"..."

Lin Shi laughed so hard he almost fell over, his whole body trembling as if he'd been electrocuted.

Qin Zhao looked at the ecstatic Lin Shi and Chen Yu and said coldly, "What are you laughing at!"

"Hahahahahaha!"

Lin Shi, unusually, didn't argue with her. Instead, he showed concern for her: "Hey, after all this time, how far have you and your classmate in front of you gotten?"

Chen Yu waited curiously for her answer.

Qin Zhao stared at him and said, word by word, "We're just good friends, don't talk nonsense."

"That means they didn't manage to lick it, hahaha!"

Qin Zhao ignored them and kept eating in silence.

Shen Yanci leaned back lazily in his chair, his arm casually draped over it, looking at the sea with a slight smile on his lips.

Qin Zhao pursed his lips: "You're laughing at me too."

"You've misunderstood. I'm just in a good mood."

"..."

The campsite was on a mountain, and they had to take a shuttle bus, cable car, and walk to climb the mountain with great difficulty.

Upon reaching our destination, the sunset began to dim.

Xia Zhirou was too tired to speak.

Qin Zhao felt a little hungry, so after a short rest, he started setting up the grill and preparing the ingredients.

Everything was ready, but after searching for a long time, I still couldn't find a fire.

She looked at Lin Shi: "Where's the fire?"

Lin Shi: "Ask Da Yu, and I gave it to him."

Chen Yu: "When did you give it to me?"

"I told you to give it to the shuttle bus driver around noon!"

"..."

Qin Zhao closed his eyes speechlessly.

Chen Yu: "I called the base owner to send it over, but it will take about 30 minutes."

Xia Zhirou, who was taking beautiful photos, pouted when she heard this: "But I'm really hungry right now. If we had gone to Northern Europe, this wouldn't have happened."

Qin Zhao ignored her and looked around the tool bag again, but he couldn't find any equipment to start a fire.

She paused for a moment when she caught a glimpse of the tin foil out of the corner of her eye.

After hesitating for two seconds, I removed the battery from the electric fan.
