It's not too late to meet in the book

The summer afternoon sun blazed, but a tranquil and focused atmosphere permeated Wang Jing's living room. The previous night, they discovered their tent was damaged and some climbing gear was missing. Early this morning, Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao set about resolving these supply issues.

Wang Jing sat on the sofa in the living room, phone in hand, concentrating on calling a friend. Her brow furrowed slightly, revealing a hint of anxiety. After all, the trip to Songshan was not far away, and time was running out.

"Hello, is this Xiao Li? I'm Wang Jing." Wang Jing's voice was gentle and polite, but there was a hint of urgency in her tone. "I'd like to ask if you have any extra tents? We're out playing this time and found that our tent is broken."

On the other end of the line, Xiao Li's voice came through clearly: "Oh, it's Wang Jing. I do have a spare tent, but I might not be able to give it to you until tomorrow. I'm a bit busy today."

Wang Jing was delighted when she heard this and quickly said, "No problem, no problem, tomorrow is fine too. Thank you so much, Xiao Li."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Jing breathed a sigh of relief, a smile of relief on her face. She looked at Su Xiaoxiao and the children sitting beside her and said, "It's solved. Xiao Li has a spare tent. We'll go get it tomorrow."

Su Xiaoxiao smiled with relief when she heard that. She turned to look at Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan and said, "Then let's solve the problem of mountaineering equipment. I looked at some online yesterday, and they were quite expensive. I thought, why don't we go to a nearby outdoor gear store and compare prices first."

Upon hearing this, Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan immediately jumped up from the sofa and shouted excitedly: "Okay, okay, let's go now."

So, Su Xiaoxiao took her two children and drove to a nearby outdoor gear store. Inside, a dazzling array of hiking gear was available, from trekking poles to non-slip shoes. Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan curiously wandered through the shelves, occasionally picking up a tool to examine closely.

"Mom, look at this trekking pole, it seems very sturdy." Lei Xiaoyue said excitedly to Su Xiaoxiao while holding a trekking pole.

Su Xiaoxiao took the trekking pole, looked at it carefully, and nodded: "Well, it's really good. But let's take a look at the price first."

As she spoke, she picked up the price tag next to the trekking pole and frowned after taking a look at it: "Hey, this price is a bit expensive."

Lin Yuxuan also picked up a pair of non-slip shoes, looked at them carefully, and then said, "Mom, these shoes seem quite professional, but they are not cheap."

Su Xiaoxiao felt a bit apprehensive upon hearing this. She knew their trip budget was limited, and buying all the new climbing gear might go overboard. So, she thought for a moment and said, "How about we write down the names and prices of these items and then search online. Maybe we can find cheaper alternatives."

Lei Xiaoyue and Lin Yuxuan nodded in agreement. They then began carefully writing down the name and price of each item, leaving the outdoor gear store with a hint of regret.

After returning home, Wang Jing, Su Xiaoxiao, and their children gathered around a computer in the living room and began diligently searching online for mountaineering equipment. They compared prices and discussed which items were essential and which could be omitted.

"Mom, look at this trekking pole. It's only sold at this price online, much cheaper than in the store." Lei Xiaoyue pointed at the computer screen and said to Wang Jing excitedly.

Wang Jing looked at it carefully and nodded. "Well, it's indeed much cheaper. Let's buy this one."

Su Xiaoxiao also found a pair of cost-effective non-slip shoes. She showed them to Lin Yuxuan: "Yuxuan, look at this pair of shoes. Not only is the price right, but the reviews are also very good."

Lin Yuxuan took the mouse, looked at it carefully, and nodded with satisfaction: "Well, this is it."

Time passed quietly in a busy and fulfilling atmosphere. They searched for items and discussed travel plans. The living room was filled with laughter and a warm atmosphere.

"Mom, what else do we need to buy?" Lei Xiaoyue asked curiously, looking at the shopping cart that was already full of items.

Wang Jing thought for a moment and said, "There are also some daily necessities like first aid kits and sunscreen. These are also essential."

Upon hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao immediately opened another online shopping platform and began searching for these daily necessities. As she searched, she said, "Yes, these are also important. We have to make sure everything is safe."

After a busy search and comparison, they finally gathered all the supplies. Looking at the dazzling array of items in the shopping cart and the satisfied smiles on everyone's faces, Wang Jing and Su Xiaoxiao were filled with relief and joy.

"That's great, we finally have all the supplies ready." Wang Jing said with satisfaction, looking at the computer screen.

Su Xiaoxiao also nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, the children also helped a lot."
