Su Zhizhi looked very hesitant, her heart filled with inner turmoil.

Zhao Wu shook his head firmly, his attitude resolute: "I'm not going! I dare not go any further! Zhizhi, let's go back!"

Upon hearing this, Su Zhizhi began to waver, her eyes filled with confusion and unease.

But Shubao didn't continue to persuade him; he just sighed regretfully, seemingly saddened that he couldn't earn more money.

After a while, Rat Baby finally broke the silence and said, "Then you two can make do here for the night and go back tomorrow morning."

I will lead the others to continue deeper. But before that, I must make it clear that I will only provide you with the route back.

If you unfortunately get lost or are attacked by other wild animals, that has nothing to do with me!

After the rat finished speaking, Zhao Wu's face turned deathly pale, his eyes widened, and he asked in a trembling voice, "There are...there are other...wild beasts?!"

"Bears are indeed not very common, but there are still things like venomous snakes," Rat Baby explained with a grin.

Su Zhizhi hesitated once again, but this time she was more inclined to follow the team into the mountains.

"Zhizhi, let's go together. If something happens to you on the way, we won't be able to get back to rescue you in time!"

Hua Ye patiently persuaded, "There are ten of us in total. Even if we encounter danger, we can take care of each other!"

Besides, now that we're here, and we've come this far, it would be such a waste to give up halfway.

Hua Ye's words were all very reasonable, and even Zhao Wu, who was determined to leave, began to waver.

In the end, Su Zhizhi and Zhao Wu agreed to continue deeper into the mountains with the tour guide.

Afterwards, with a happy expression, Shubao collected two hundred yuan from each of the four people.

As night deepened and the events of the past had left everyone disoriented, drowsiness soon returned to everyone.

However, Su Zhizhi and her three companions had run all the way here, leaving everything behind.

Now that it was pitch black, no one dared to go back to retrieve their belongings with flashlights, for fear of encountering that ferocious black bear again on the way.

However, the baby mouse seemed unusually excited.

Perhaps it was because he had just made a lot of money, or perhaps it was because four new members had joined him, that he was in an exceptionally good mood.

He waved his hand generously, indicating that he was willing to take on the task of keeping watch at night, and offered his tent to Su Zhizhi and Hua Ye to stay in.

But here's the problem: Zhao Wu and Song Yifeng don't have a place to sleep yet.

Just then, Zhu Xing suddenly had a flash of inspiration and a smile appeared on his face.

He said to Shi Xiaxia, "Xiaxia, why don't you come and sleep in my tent with me? Deng Mingzhou and Cheng Yajun can share a tent."

This frees up a tent for Zhao Wu and Song Yifeng.

Shi Xiaxia: "......"

She looked at Zhu Xing speechlessly. This guy is really something else!

"Ah."

Shi Xiaxia then sneered and turned to Zhao Wu and Song Yifeng, saying, "Zhu Xing said he's not sleepy, so you two can go sleep in his tent."

Now it was Zhu Xing's turn to remain silent.

He shook his head helplessly, his face full of a meaningful smile.

After glancing back and forth between Shi Xiaxia and Zhu Xing several times, Liu Shang finally said, forcing himself to speak, "Well... you can stay in my tent. I'll keep watch with the tour guide."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wu immediately replied without hesitation, "Okay! Thank you, Liu Shang!"

His tone was full of joy and gratitude, without the slightest hesitation or embarrassment.

Liu Shang was so angry that his eyebrows twitched, but he quickly turned away to avoid seeing it.

So the tents were quickly assigned, and everyone returned to their tents to rest.

However, after all this commotion, Shi Xiaxia couldn't fall asleep in bed. She lay quietly in the tent, her thoughts swirling in her mind as she recalled everything that had just happened.

Although Cheng Yajun was also frightened, she did not fall asleep as quickly as the others.

After a while, she asked in a low voice, "Xiaxia, are you asleep?"

Shi Xiaxia replied softly, "Not yet."

"I now how to do?"

Cheng Yajun's voice was full of confusion as she looked helplessly at Shi Xiaxia, her eyes filled with tears.

She continued, "When Deng Mingzhou found out the black bear was coming, his first reaction was to grab me and run. I..."

At that moment, I suddenly remembered when we first started dating. Back then, he always took meticulous care of me, and we were the kind of couple everyone envied.

Deng Mingzhou was very good to me; he even got injured saving me, which is why I decided to marry him. But things slowly changed after we got married…”

Cheng Yajun's voice gradually lowered, filled with helplessness and pain.

She continued, "But now... I really don't know what to do."

I know I can no longer trust him as wholeheartedly as I used to, but just now I realized I still have feelings for him...

I don't know whether I should forgive him and start our marriage again, or end this relationship. I'm in so much pain and so conflicted!

Shi Xiaxia listened quietly to Cheng Yajun's story.

She understood Cheng Yajun's inner struggle and confusion at this moment, after all, no one could easily make a decision in such a situation.

After Cheng Yajun finished speaking, Shi Xiaxia did not immediately offer any words of comfort.

She could tell from Cheng Yajun's appearance that if she got divorced, Cheng Yajun's life would be happier and more fulfilling.

If you don't want a divorce, things will be exactly the same as they are now.

While happiness may not be the case, a husband's infidelity may have become a common occurrence.

However, as an observer, Shi Xiaxia could not and did not want to interfere with other people's choices at will.

After a moment of silence, Xiaxia gently comforted her, "Sister, just follow your heart."

Besides, there's no need for you to make a decision so hastily. The trip isn't over yet; you can think about everything carefully after you get home.

After listening to Shi Xiaxia's words, Cheng Yajun remained silent for a while, as if she had figured something out.

Then she softly replied, "You're right, I still have several days. I haven't been out and about for many years, and I can't let this spoil my fun."

After that, the two of them fell completely silent.

Not long after, Cheng Yajun fell asleep, and Shi Xiaxia also felt sleepy.

So he put aside all his doubts and fell into a deep sleep.
