Xia Wei smiled lightly. She looked down at Jian Tan and said gently, “Yes, they’re quite desperate, especially the four from the second and last group.”

As she spoke, she tightened the bottle cap in her hand. She raised her eyebrows and looked away from Jian Tan. “However, it’s useless no matter how hard you try. A person’s physique and athletic ability can’t be changed overnight. Those two people’s stamina can’t compare to mine, or even Chuchu’s. They’re probably just gritting their teeth and holding on now! It’s just a matter of time before we catch up to them.”

When the girl in front of her spoke, there seemed to be sparkling stars in her eyes. She was also extremely confident and lively. This was Jian Tan’s favorite Xia Wei.

Jian Tan’s smile this morning seemed to be free. What the cameraman captured was his gentle smile when he looked at Xia Wei.

“You’re right. It’s not difficult to catch up to them.” What I am more worried about is your waist injury.

Jian Tan did not say the last sentence, but Xia Wei could already tell from his deep and gentle eyes.

Letting out a sigh, Xia Wei looked at Jian Tan’s face and said helplessly, “My waist injury is fine now. There’s no need to be so cautious and careful. We’re almost done resting. Let’s continue climbing the mountain! It’ll be even hotter and uncomfortable when the sun rises.”

Upon hearing this, Jian Tan stared at Xia Wei’s face for a long time before nodding with a smile. “Alright, let’s go.”

He agreed readily, as if he would agree to anything Xia Wei said.

Just as the two of them got up and were about to continue climbing the mountain, an excited call suddenly came from a corner of the mountain not far behind them. “Sister Wei, Brother Jian! Is it you? Why did you take so long to catch up? Xin Xin and An Nan have already walked to the front!”

When Xia Wei heard that it was Su Chu’s voice, she turned around and smiled. She took a few steps closer before replying loudly, “I was delayed when we set off just now. It’s nothing. Wait for me to come up and tell you.”

After hearing Xia Wei’s response, Su Chu smiled and agreed loudly. When she turned back to look at Li Xian, she smiled and continued, “Sister Wei and the others will be coming up soon. Let’s wait for them to come together. We can take care of each other on the way. What do you think, Brother Xian?”

Li Xian glanced at Xia Wei and Jian Tan, who were walking up quickly. He nodded. Actually, he was happy to do so.

He did not compete with Chen Yuan and Liu Shi along the way mainly to wait for Xia Wei.

However, looking at a certain tall figure following Xia Wei closely, Li Xian slowly felt displeased and vigilant.

“Why did Jian Tan make Xia Wei carry such a big bag? Doesn’t he know that Xia Wei has a back injury?” He pretended to be puzzled and asked.

When Su Chu heard that, she immediately reacted to this matter.

She instinctively frowned and looked at the two people who were getting closer and closer. She thought for a moment and said, “That can’t be. Brother Jian doesn’t look like such an inconsiderate person. Sister Wei shouldn’t have anything especially heavy in her backpack. Brother Xian, take a closer look if you don’t believe me. Brother Jian’s backpack is obviously much bigger than Sister Wei’s. It’s full. It’s obvious that he stuffed a lot of things!”

Li Xian’s observation skills were better than Su Chu’s. He had already seen through this when he asked that question. The reason why he asked despite knowing the answer was actually to mislead the netizens’ opinions of Jian Tan in the live-stream.

No matter how handsome and outstanding a man was, if he did not know how to have tender, protective feelings for the fairer sex, he would still be slightly degrading in the eyes of a large number of female fans!

However, he had neglected one thing. Su Chu, who was in front of him, would not support him. She was Jian Tan’s loyal fan. Li Xian was one step behind.

Li Xian, who couldn’t achieve his goal of sowing discord after being interrupted by Su Chu, was speechless.

Seeing that Li Xian was silent, Su Chu thought that he had not seen what she was referring to. She added a few more sentences and swept away the atmosphere that Li Xian had tried to create previously. The verbal battle in the live-stream that had yet to take shape turned into a wisp of smoke and dissipated.

Hence, when Xia Wei and Jian Tan caught up, they happened to see Su Chu holding Li Xian’s hand and talking enthusiastically.

Xia Wei didn’t expect Su Chu and Li Xian to have such a good relationship. She looked at him warily before saying gently to Su Chu, “Chuchu, come over.. Do you want some water? 1 have it here!”
