The daily life of a crazy female supporting character trying to redeem herself.

Qin Zhoumu and Xu Xi turned to look at him. This turn exposed Liang Qing to Qin Zhouyu's view. The two met face to face at a distance of less than two meters.

When Liang Qing saw him again, the smile on his lips hadn't completely faded, and the dimple on his right cheek was faintly visible, giving him a slightly mischievous look.

He stood in front of her, much taller than her, his shadow falling at her feet, firmly trodden beneath her feet.

He had actually lost some weight, and his complexion was not good; he was rather pale. Only his eyes still shone brightly, but that light gradually faded when he saw Liang Qing.

When Song Zhiji saw Qin Zhouyu and Liang Qing facing off, he remembered that every time he faced Liang Qing, it was either "you get hurt" or "I get hurt". He became wary and took a step forward without making a sound.

However, Qin Zhouyu acted out of character this time, not only refraining from any outrageous behavior, but also acting as if he hadn't seen Liang Qing and Song Zhiji at all.

He released his arm around Qin Zhoumu's neck, took a half step back, and said to Qin Zhoumu in a low voice, "Let's go."

[Host, this is a good opportunity. Although Su Heng didn't show up tonight, Qin Zhouyu did. Song Zhiji's favorability rating is now fixed, so this is a good chance to boost Qin Zhouyu's.]

Xiao Qi excitedly reminded him, but was met with Liang Qing's silence, which greatly diminished its confidence. It couldn't help but wonder: Could it be that the host was really affected by the previous life and had different feelings for Qin Zhouyu this time, so that he could not treat him as a normal target for conquest as in previous missions?

Upon hearing his brother's words, Governor Qin knew the situation was dire. But if he didn't stay, who would stop Song Zhiji and Liang Qing from further developing their relationship?

Just as he was thinking of an excuse to stay, Xu Xi spoke first: "Brother Zhou Yu, Governor, let's set up our tent here. There's an open space right next to us. I'm tired and don't want to walk anymore."

Her words surprised not only Qin Zhouyu, but also Qin Zhoumu and Liang Qing.

Qin Zhoumu goes without saying. He and Xu Xi grew up together and naturally knew Xu Xi's feelings for Qin Zhouyu. Unfortunately, his brother already had someone else in his heart.

Based on Liang Qing's previous encounter with Xu Xi and her actions in the hospital room, it's not hard to guess her feelings for Qin Zhouyu.

"Don't be ridiculous." Although Qin Zhouyu didn't know what Xu Xi was planning to do by staying here, he still didn't want to stay.

Xu Xi insisted on continuing, but Qin Zhoumu patted her shoulder reassuringly, signaling for him to speak.

He put his arm around Qin Zhouyu's shoulder and led him to a tree not far away, keeping a distance from Liang Qing and the others so that they could not hear the conversation.

"Brother, let's stop here," said Qin Zhoumu.

Qin Zhouyu glanced at him, slightly displeased, and said, "I don't know what you're trying to do, but I'm done with her and don't want any more contact with her."

Qin Zhoumu thought to himself: You're just pretending. If you could really let go, would you need to spend all day in that house spacing out?

However, despite saying that, he didn't have the guts to confront his brother directly.

His eyes darted around twice, and he had an idea.

He said to Qin Zhouyu, "Brother, putting aside the love-hate relationship between you and Sister Liang Qing, isn't it a bit unsafe for her, a girl, to be alone with a man in this place? If anything happens, we can help her, right?"

Qin Zhouyu's lips twitched. Although Song Zhiji was his rival in love, he knew that Song Zhiji was of good character and would never do anything to harm Liang Qing.

Based on his desire to be objective, he decided to explain for Song Zhiji, but perhaps Governor Qin saw through his thoughts, because his words shut him down: "Just pretend that Senior Song isn't that kind of person. There are so many people on this mountain tonight, a mixed bag. Senior Song is rather thin and weak; if something happens, he can't fight against so many. If we're here, we can help out, right?"

Although Qin Zhouyu knew he was probably talking nonsense, he looked around at the tents and saw that most of the people sitting at the entrance were indeed men, which made him a little worried.

After all, you can't be too afraid of the unexpected happening in these kinds of situations.

But if I show it to this kid, who knows what weird tricks he might come up with next time.

Finally, he could only give an ambiguous reply: "Whatever."

Upon hearing his reply, Governor Qin immediately beamed with joy and went back to tell Xu Xi that the deal had been reached.

Although Xu Xi heard that Qin Zhouyu had agreed to her request, she couldn't feel happy for some reason.

She glanced at Liang Qing, who was eating with Song Zhiji on a low stool, and couldn't help but wonder: Is Zhou Yu willing to stay for her sake?

But then she thought again: No, Zhou Yu and she have already broken up. If he really wanted to stay, he wouldn't have refused in the first place.

Thinking this way, she felt much comforted and ran over to help the two of them who were setting up the tent.

After setting up the tent, Qin Zhouyu said he had left something at the store and needed to go back to find it.

Governor Qin and Xu Xi exchanged a glance, both able to see in each other's eyes that they knew he was making it up.

He was dragged along by the two of them today and only brought his phone with him. They saw him take it out to check the time just two minutes later.

But they both chose not to expose him, without prior agreement.

Governor Qin knew that he was in a state of turmoil and didn't want to stay there; he needed some time to calm down.

Xu Xi didn't want Qin Zhouyu and Liang Qing to have any further contact.

However, when Qin Zhouyu was about to leave, Qin Zhoumu told him that he had to be back before 8:30 so they could watch the meteor shower together, and Qin Zhouyu agreed.

After Qin Zhouyu disappeared, Qin Zhoumu pulled up two folding stools, gestured to Xu Xi with his chin, and sat down beside her. He rested his hands on his knees, propped his chin up with his palms, and stared at Xu Xi with a accusatory look. Xu Xi felt uneasy under his gaze and couldn't help but ask, "What?"

Governor Qin chuckled and asked, "Tell me honestly, what are you staying here for?"

Xu Xi has never been one to keep secrets, especially since the person in front of her now is her best friend from childhood. So she revealed her thoughts without any reservations: "I just want to stay here and see what kind of person Zhou Yu likes."

"And then what? Are you going to imitate her every move and try to woo my brother?"

Xu Xi propped her face up with her hands, her elbows resting on her knees like Qin Zhoumu, and replied, "I don't want to! Although I like Brother Zhouyu and hope he can like me too, I hope that the me he likes is the real me, not someone who finds a shadow of someone else in me."

"Oh," Qin Zhoumu said with a hint of admiration in his eyes, teasingly adding, "You've got quite a temper, impressive."

Xu Xi rolled her eyes at him and snorted, "Of course."

“However,” Governor Qin added, “don’t blame me for pouring cold water on you, but it’s probably hopeless for my brother to fall for you, whether it’s the real you or the you who’s willing to abandon your pride to imitate Liang Qing.”

Hearing his words, Xu Xi indeed got angry. She retorted angrily, "How do you know? There's still plenty of time! What makes you so sure that Zhou Yu can't like me?"

Governor Qin knew his words were hurtful, but he still said, "Some feelings cannot be made to disappear without a trace over time. Although such feelings are rare, you cannot say that they do not exist."

These words left Xu Xi speechless.
