"It's too windy in the desert. This is a veil. Remember to wear it tomorrow."
Gu Yuechen was stunned. Even though she had been sulking for a long time, she still felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She reached out to take it and thanked him in a low voice.
"Thank you."
"Don't mention it."
"Do you want to go in..."
Before Gu Yuechen could finish her words, a rapid ringtone sounded between the two of them, interrupting her.
Lu Nanzhou took out his phone, looked at Gu Yuechen apologetically, and then pressed the answer button. Vivian's voice came from the other end of the line. He didn't know what she said, but Gu Yuechen only heard two words.
"Come to my room."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Nanzhou glanced at Gu Yuechen. "Vivian said that there's something wrong with her room. She wants me to go over and help take a look."
Hearing this, Gu Yuechen was furious. She said unhappily, "Then go. What are you standing here for? Do you want me to go with you?"
Before Lu Nanzhou could explain, a gust of wind blew. Gu Yuechen had already slammed the door shut, along with the veil bag he brought.
Vivian called Lu Nanzhou at this time purely on purpose. She saw Lu Nanzhou pass by her door through the peephole, heading in the direction of Gu Yuechen's room. That was why she came up with this bad idea.
After being rejected by Gu Yuechen, Lu Nanzhou hesitated in front of her door for a long time. He sighed, lowered his head, and knocked on the door to ask her what happened.
Vivian blocked the door and didn't let him in. "It's fine now. I was a little worried when I couldn't close the window. Sleep early, Nan Zhou."
Lu Nanzhou didn't think much of it and obediently went back to his room to rest.
After closing the door, a laugh came from the sofa. "If you really like Lu Nanzhou, why do you have to tease him?"
"I don't have the hobby of stealing someone's love. Although Nan Zhou is pretty good, it's not to the extent that I would put down my face and chase after him. Aren't I just helping you?"
After saying that, Vivian glanced at Luo Qing and said, "You said you could have taken a fancy to anyone, but why did you have to take a fancy to that young lady? I've asked around, and she's famous for her bad temper."
"I just think she's interesting. You're thinking too much."
Vivian sneered. "Brother, you're already an adult. Why are you still so hesitant when you like someone? It's not cool at all."
"When it comes to love, both parties have to love each other. You can't break them up."
"It's my business whether or not we can break up. You just have to think of a way to woo Gu Yuechen. Don't worry about anything else."
Luo Qing smiled as a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes. "Don't mess around. Rest early. We have to travel tomorrow. This place is not a vacation spot."
"Tomorrow? I'm not going tomorrow. "
"Up to you …"
The next day, the shooting location was set at Mingsha Spring. They had to set off with the camel team early in the morning. When she heard that Vivian was not going with them, Gu Yuechen's ashen face obviously looked better.
Mingsha Spring was in the center of the desert. It would take three hours to follow the camel team, but there were also desert motorcycles. Luo Qing insisted on following the camel team because he wanted to take pictures of the scenery along the way.
The desert was vast and boundless. Originally, they couldn't see the end of it. The more they walked, the more uncertain they felt. Gu Yuechen had never experienced hardships in her travels since she was young. This time, she was already a little uncomfortable following them to Gansu. She had been forcing herself to endure. The scorching sun hung high in the sky along the way, and the wind and sand almost made her breathless.
But after seeing Mingsha Spring, the heartfelt joy suddenly made her feel enlightened. For a moment, she forgot that she had just squabbled with Lu Nanzhou the night before.
She turned around and shouted, "Nan Zhou, look, we're here."
Lu Nanzhou also nodded with a face full of joy. "It's so beautiful."
They were going to stay at Mingsha Spring for two days, or even longer, until Luo Qing finished taking pictures of the scenery here.
After putting down their luggage, the three of them went to the spring. Gu Yuechen was responsible for holding the light board and adjusting the position of the camera according to Luo Qing's request. Lu Nanzhou was responsible for holding the tripod and helping to adjust the position of the camera.
The sun was scorching in the afternoon. There were only a few trees by the spring, and only a few leaves grew on them. When the wind blew, they swayed as if they would fall at any second. After the initial few minutes of excitement when they saw the oasis, this place still looked excessively desolate.
Gu Yuechen didn't like this place very much. She liked everything that was full of vitality, and it was difficult for her to feel the beauty of the barren land. Luo Qing was obviously the opposite of her. After holding the DSLR, he was like a different person. He was focused as if there was no moment of distraction.
"Move the light board a little to the left. I want to take pictures of that tree."
"… …"
At night, smoke rose from the desert, and the sun set over the long river.
Gu Yuechen was lying in the tent she was staying in with a sore back. Through the tent's window, she could see the sky full of stars.
"Chen." A familiar voice came from outside the tent.
Gu Yuechen was too lazy to move. She answered while lying down, "What? I'm exhausted. Don't call me. "
"You ate very little for dinner." Lu Nanzhou's voice was separated by a layer of the tent, but it was still very clear.
"It's too dry. I'm not used to it."
"Then what do you want to eat?"
Gu Yuechen pondered for a few seconds and said weakly.
"I want to drink a cup of chocolate and eat a piece of red velvet cake. If you can give me a strawberry, then I really can't ask for anything else."
The more she spoke, the hungrier she became.
If she had known that she would end up in this situation half a month ago, she definitely wouldn't have wasted any food.
A rustling sound came from outside the tent. She opened her eyes and looked at the entrance of the tent with great effort. She saw a hand reaching in. "What are you doing …"
Before she could finish speaking, her voice was drowned by the rich smell of chocolate.
She got up with a grunt and snatched the thermos flask from Lu Nanzhou's hand.
"Where did the chocolate come from …"
A gasp came from outside the tent. "You pinched me …"
"Are you okay?"
Gu Yuechen hurriedly opened the tent, but she bumped into a pair of sparkling eyes in front of the starry sky. They were filled with gentleness as they looked at her with a smile. In his hand was a red velvet cake. The corners were crushed, and it didn't look very beautiful.
"The portable fridge can't store too many things, so there's only one red velvet cake. It's a little crushed, so you can eat it."
At that moment, Gu Yuechen felt as if there was a clear spring water flowing through her heart. Her whole body was refreshed, and she was no longer as irritated as she was during the day.
"Thank you."
She smiled sincerely. This was the first time she really showed a good expression to Lu Nanzhou since they broke up.
"Where's the chocolate? How did you get it? "
"I prepared it before I came. The thermos flask is quite good at keeping the chocolate warm. It should still be warm."
Lu Nanzhou handed the cake into her tent and rubbed his hands. It seemed a little cold.
"Hurry up and eat. It's cold outside. Rest early after eating."
The temperature difference between day and night was huge. Lu Nanzhou was wearing a light yellow jacket and squatting outside. He exhaled a breath of cold air when he spoke. He was shivering from the cold, but he was still thinking about Gu Yuechen.
"Drink a little."
Gu Yuechen handed over the thermos flask in her hand.
