Chapter 68 First Day!
Bang!
As Ye Mingkong returned to the car and closed the door, Ji Yunqi stepped forward and asked curiously.
“Wife, how is it? Did she make things difficult for you?”
Seeing her husband’s concern, Ye Mingkong felt a warmth spread through her, realizing it was worth facing the woman she disliked alone.
Looking at Ji Yunqi holding her hand, with teary eyes, Ye Mingkong’s thoughts drifted back many years.
She realized she used to be just like this.
When her husband came home, she would anxiously hold his hand, asking if he was alright, even though she knew he was fine.
But deep down, she couldn’t shake the feeling that something might be wrong.
Now, this “little pampered wife” persona had shifted to her husband. The once strong man had become so adorable, it was truly… wonderful!
Ye Mingkong held Ji Yunqi’s slender hand, savoring this moment of peace.
What more could he ask for?
At this moment, Ye Mingkong seemed to understand. There was no need to hate Luo Yao. Even though she had tried to steal her husband in the past, that was all in the past.
Now, being able to live a second life was a great fortune, and her husband was still by her side. Although their interactions had changed significantly, he was still the same person.
The entire family was safe and sound, and that was enough for her.
…
The destination was about 300 kilometers from Rongcheng, a newly developed scenic area in recent years.
While called a scenic area, it wasn’t very popular, at least not when Ji Yunqi’s family last visited. It was mainly popular for self-driving tours.
It was a snow-capped mountain, over 4,000 meters above sea level, a tourist attraction in the western Sichuan region, though not widely known.
It was still under development, attracting mainly family self-driving enthusiasts due to its initial development.
You could drive directly to the summit of the snow mountain without any obstacles, so this time, Ji Yunqi and Ji Chengyun had decided.
To bring the ancestral tent and go camping!
This idea had existed for many years but had never been realized; now, they were doing what they had always wanted to do.
“Husband, it’s only October, and there’s already so much snow here!”
As evening approached…
Ye Mingkong was excited to see snow covering the ground at the foot of the mountain.
As a native southerner, snow was a rare sight. For people from the south, snow was indeed a rare occurrence.
Playing in the snow was something every southerner wished to do.
It was getting late. The planned itinerary was for three days. Today was the first day. Tomorrow, they would go up the mountain, admire the snowy scenery along the way, and climb towards the summit.
They would camp on the snow mountain at night, enjoying the rare and special scenery. After all, Ji Yunqi and Ji Chengyun had managed to find out that there would be a meteor shower that night.
And this place was one of the best viewing spots.
Moreover, besides this rare scenery, the sight of the morning sun breaking through the night and illuminating the dawn was also an unforgettable scene.
The first rays of sunlight seen from high mountains were vastly different from those seen in the city.
…
However, they wouldn’t see this today. As it was getting dark, they needed to check into their pre-booked hotel.
Although the hotel at the foot of the snow mountain was a bit old and worn, its sense of security was enough.
There were not many rooms, only two rooms in total. Ji Yunqi’s family of three would share one room, and Luo Yao and her daughter would share the other.
After parking the car in the hotel’s spacious parking lot, Ye Mingkong was the first to rush out.
Having sat in the car all day, he couldn’t stand it any longer and needed to stretch his muscles.
Ji Yunqi and the others were in a similar situation. The first thing they did after getting out of the car was to stretch their waists; otherwise, they really couldn’t bear it!
“Chengyun~” Zhang Xinrou had been feeling conflicted all day. She had wanted to go to Ji Chengyun but never had the chance.
Now that the car had stopped and it was time to rest, she could finally get close to him.
Ji Chengyun was hers, and no one could take him away!
Since they had already told her mother about their relationship, and her mother didn’t object, didn’t that mean she could do as she pleased?
It was just a pity that the room arrangements had already been made, and she had to share a room with her mother, which was truly a shame…
“Let’s go.” Ji Chengyun took Zhang Xinrou’s hand and walked towards the hotel reception.
He and his mother had discussed this in advance. From now on, if anything needed to be handled, he would be the primary person, followed by his mother.
As for his father…
As mentioned before, he just needed to be his mother’s pampered wife and didn’t need to worry about anything else.
Seeing the two children walking ahead, Ji Yunqi didn’t want to dwell on the awkward atmosphere between the two of them.
“I… let’s hurry and catch up with the children.”
“Okay, my little pampered wife, let’s go~” Ye Mingkong put his arm around Ji Yunqi’s waist in front of Luo Yao, looking smug, and winked at Luo Yao.
His provocative gaze was almost undisguised. Fortunately, Luo Yao had a good temper and was experienced, otherwise, Ye Mingkong would have really angered her.
“This guy, why is he still so childish? He’s truly spoiled.”
Luo Yao didn’t seem bothered, just casually complained a few words before following them into the hotel.
The receptionist was very efficient and handled the check-in process quickly, handing the room cards to Ji Chengyun and Zhang Xinrou.
The two rooms were conveniently located, one on the first floor and the other on the second floor.
At this point, no matter how reluctant Zhang Xinrou was, she had to temporarily part with Ji Chengyun.
Ji Chengyun gave her a comforting look, signaling her not to worry and that they would meet again soon.
…
After Luo Yao and her daughter went up to the second floor, Ji Yunqi finally dared to ask the mother and son what was going on today.
“Hey, you two, what’s going on today? I feel like you’re hiding something from me. Tell me, why didn’t you let me do anything all day and took all my work?”
As a son, Ji Chengyun could feel his father’s eyes filled with resentment. However, he didn’t get angry. After exchanging a glance with his mother, he planned to explain it to him.
