After buying all the art supplies, such as paints, brushes, and easels, at the bookstore, Liang Qing went to an outdoor equipment store to buy camping items such as tents and sleeping bags.
She had already asked the system and learned that Su Heng had been sketching on the mountain for the past few days in preparation for the painting competition.
She wanted to take this opportunity to get closer to him.
Although the two had talked things out last time and were no longer hostile to each other, she was not unaware that Su Heng had decided to let go of his feelings for her last time.
If it weren't for what she said before going upstairs, he might have really let go and reverted to being a junior.
Currently, his favorability rating is 60, which is the highest among the three potential romantic partners who haven't reached a fixed value yet.
After returning home, Liang Qing packed his luggage, rested for a night, and set off the next day for the mountain where Su Heng had been sketching.
What she didn't expect was that the sound of her tent accidentally bumping into the door of the next room when she left caught Yan Su's attention.
Yan Su noticed that she had a lot of bags and packages, so after she entered the elevator, he quickly walked down the stairs to the main entrance. There he saw a car and Liang Qing was putting things into the trunk.
Yan Su hurriedly drove his car out of the garage. When he came out, the car had already been moved, but fortunately, after he drove out onto the road, he saw the car waiting at a red light at an intersection.
He secretly breathed a sigh of relief, placed his hands on the steering wheel, turned it slightly, and slowly followed Liang Qing until they reached the foot of the mountain.
Seeing Liang Qing get out of the car and take out her art supplies, tent, and other items, one guesses that she is probably here for camping and sketching.
He looked at the mountain through the car window. Although it wasn't very high, dense trees stood on it, and from a distance, it looked like a green fluffy ball.
Yan Su couldn't help but frown. To be honest, it was too dangerous for a girl to come here camping alone.
Just as he was hesitating about what to do, another car pulled up and stopped beside Liang Qing.
A man got out of the driver's seat, wearing a light blue short-sleeved shirt, black trousers, and hiking boots.
Her short, black hair was bathed in sunlight, and her fair skin turned red from the sun. Who else could it be but Song Zhiji?
Yan Su gave a cold laugh, and when he saw Song Zhiji taking out tent-pitching equipment from the trunk, he cursed himself for meddling in other people's business.
But then she thought again and smiled. Wasn't this a perfect opportunity?
This is a good opportunity to see what their current situation is.
Liang Qing summoned Song Zhiji so that his sudden appearance on the mountain wouldn't seem so deliberate.
It's really strange that she would come to this mountain to sketch and camp alone.
Putting aside the issue of safety, the fact that they just happened to choose the same mountain as Su Heng suggests a very strong ulterior motive.
Although Su Heng had feelings for her, he couldn't help but be suspicious of her because of what had happened before, wondering if she had ulterior motives.
But it's different if you bring Song Zhiji along. Who would bring along another person they're flirting with when they're pursuing a man?
Therefore, even if these three people were to meet, they would only think it was a coincidence.
To make this carefully planned "chance encounter" even more coincidental, she only mentioned her idea of going sketching when chatting with Song Zhiji. Song Zhiji then took the opportunity to invite her to go camping for a few days and experience outdoor life.
And in this city, this mountain is the best place for camping.
This mountain not only boasts beautiful scenery and excellent views, but also features a security post, shops renting tents and outdoor equipment, and most importantly, it has built shower facilities.
Based on all these factors, Song Zhiji would almost certainly choose this mountain.
And now, the result has not disappointed her.
Since the location was chosen by Song Zhiji, even if Song Zhiji ran into Su Heng, he would only think it was a coincidence.
Song Zhiji chose a flat and open grassy area to set up his tent. After laying out the inner tent and assembling the tent poles, he looked at Liang Qing, who was tidying up, and called out, "Liang Qing, come here for a moment."
Liang Qing put down what she was doing, walked up to him, and asked, "Do you need any help?"
Song Zhiji nodded, handed her a pre-assembled tent pole, and said, "Yes, it will be faster for two people to set it up. You take this and place it diagonally opposite me on one side, and fasten it with the buttons on the inner tent."
The two of them worked much faster together. After fastening the buttons, they bent the inner tent up and aligned the zippered door of the outer tent with the two side doors of the inner tent. They tied the ropes of the outer tent to the tent poles and finally used ground pegs to drive them into the ground through the tent's holes to secure them. The tent was now set up.
After testing the tent's zipper and confirming it worked, the two quickly set up another tent using the same method.
After setting up, the two of them packed their things. Liang Qing put his belongings into the tent and then came out to find Song Zhiji fiddling with the portable gas stove on the table, preparing to cook.
Sunlight streamed down onto the ground. Liang Qing walked over, bathed in its light, and saw Song Zhiji's face, burning hot from the sun. He turned back into the tent, grabbed the canopy and some wet wipes, and stood beside Song Zhiji. He said, "Zhiji, let's set up the canopy first to block out the sunlight."
Song Zhiji turned around and saw the wet wipes Liang Qingxian handed him. He felt a warmth in his heart and took them to wipe his face to cool it down.
The canopy was set up in no time, and Song Zhiji quickly cooked some noodles for the two of them to have a bite to eat.
As the two were cleaning up after their meal, they noticed a number of people gradually coming up the mountain. At first, Liang Qing didn't think anything was wrong, but she was surprised when she saw that these people were also setting up tents nearby.
"I didn't expect there to be so many people," Liang Qing said with a smile, looking at Song Zhiji.
Song Zhiji seemed somewhat surprised after hearing this and asked, "You didn't know?"
Liang Qing asked in confusion, "Know what?"
He replied, "There's a meteor shower tonight that happens only once every fifty years. I think they all came early to reserve good spots to watch it."
Liang Qing laughed and said, "Then we've come at the perfect time."
"Yes, it's great to have you come with me."
Song Zhiji's words were suggestive. After saying them casually, he nervously observed Liang Qing. Seeing that she was still smiling and there was nothing unusual about her, he felt both relieved and a little disappointed.
A once-in-a-century meteor shower, and I never expected this trip to have such an unexpected bonus.
The sun was about to set, and the fluffy clouds in the sky swelled up. As time passed, they were baked redder and redder by the sun, gradually turning scorched, darkening, and sinking.
It was completely dark.
Song Zhiji went to a shop halfway up the mountain to rent some lamps, while Liang Qing stayed behind to cook dinner by the light of the fire.
