Chapter 75: Already at the Summit
“Gaghh~”
“Ahhhh~~~”
Ye Mingkong held a tissue in one hand and a bottle of mineral water in the other, looking at Ji Yunqi with great concern.
After Ji Yunqi finished vomiting, Ye Mingkong handed her the water and tissues, “Husband, are you okay?”
Ji Yunqi waved her hand, patted her chest, and took a breath, “I won’t die, just a little uncomfortable.”
“You never used to get carsick before, why are you like this now?”
“It’s nothing, my physique is not good right now, plus I just ate, and the mountain road is winding. Getting carsick is a normal thing, don’t worry about it,” Ji Yunqi comforted.
Luo Yao walked towards Ji Yunqi holding a small bag, her thin lips parted slightly, “I’m sorry, my driving skills might still need improvement. I’ll drive slower later.”
“It’s not your fault, it’s just that I’m too weak right now.”
Seeing this, Luo Yao stopped talking and just silently opened the small bag in her hand, took out two round plasters, went forward, and applied them behind Ji Yunqi’s earlobes.
Instantly, a cool and refreshing sensation struck, truly like a miracle drug. In just a few seconds, Ji Yunqi felt her condition improve a bit.
“What is this? It’s so magical?”
“It’s just a motion sickness medicine. I prepared it before we left, and it turns out it was useful.”
“Thank you.”
“You’re welcome.”
Looking up at the road ahead, due to their brief stop, Ji Chengyun had already driven a considerable distance with Zhang Xinrou.
If they didn’t hurry, the children would be out of sight.
“Let’s go quickly, or we won’t even be able to catch up to their exhaust fumes.” Saying that, Ji Yunqi, to show she was fine, even deliberately hopped back into the car.
Luo Yao and Ye Mingkong exchanged glances, seeing the helplessness in each other’s eyes.
“She’s… really acting like a little girl?” Luo Yao couldn’t quite understand. Could that once majestic man really be gradually turning into a little girl?
Compared to Luo Yao’s worry and confusion, Ye Mingkong seemed very natural, or rather, this was exactly what he wanted to see.
“Isn’t she just a little girl now? It’s normal for her to be cute and lively,” Ye Mingkong said indifferently.
“Heh, that’s indeed pretty good…”
It had to be said that on this point, Luo Yao and Ye Mingkong had a rare consensus; they both really hoped that the current Ji Yunqi could adapt to her current life.
…
The road up the mountain became increasingly difficult, with more and more snow on the ground. If it weren’t for the vehicles ahead clearing the way for Luo Yao and the others, it would have been quite difficult for them to proceed smoothly.
Luo Yao’s car was just an ordinary SUV, not a professional tour vehicle, and naturally struggled to handle this kind of high mountain snow road terrain.
Ji Chengyun could advance so quickly largely because the car Ji Yunqi’s family was driving on this trip was an off-road vehicle—
the Tank 300!
Although it wasn’t among the top-tier off-road vehicles, it was definitely one of the best value for money.
It combined performance and appearance. Let alone this kind of high mountain snow road, even water pits and muddy ground would be no problem.
“The way he drives, it reminds me a bit of you when you were young,” Luo Yao remarked.
Ji Yunqi gave a proud smile, “That’s the son following the father’s footsteps! I was so capable when I was young, so my son must be no less capable~”
Luo Yao shook her head slightly, not echoing Ji Yunqi’s words. This was Ji Yunqi’s habit that had never changed over the years.
As soon as she was praised by someone she knew, she immediately lost all sense of her own level, in short—she got inflated!
Ye Mingkong reached out and hugged Ji Yunqi’s slender waist, “You were so capable back then, but now you’re still my little pampered wife~”
“You… show some respect~” Ji Yunqi finally deflated.
As the saying goes, a good man doesn’t boast of past glories. The one who is glorious now is her son Ji Chengyun, not her…
…
Time passed quickly, and Ji Yunqi and her group successfully reached the mountain summit before evening.
Upon reaching the summit, they discovered that there were indeed quite a lot of people there, not just their two families. The cars that had driven ahead faster had already set up tents and bonfires.
It was evident that that group of people seemed to have only just met each other.
Most people who travel are friendly, especially those who are self-driving and seeking thrills, like them.
Meeting like-minded friends on the peak of this snow mountain is indeed a great fortune in life.
However, the immediate priority was to quickly set up the tents for their two families.
Otherwise, they would have to sleep in the cars at night. Anyone who has slept in a car knows that after a night’s sleep, their back would feel like it didn’t belong to them…
“Aunt Luo, this tent is for you and Xinrou,” Ji Chengyun handed one of the unopened tents to Luo Yao.
Looking at the thick bundle in her hand… she was actually a little flustered, as Luo Yao didn’t know how to set up a tent. At this moment, she could only look at Ji Chengyun in embarrassment and helplessness.
“Chengyun, can you help Auntie? Auntie doesn’t know how to assemble this.”
Ji Chengyun was slightly taken aback, clearly not having considered this point, “Ah, sorry Aunt Luo, I didn’t consider that. I’ll help you set it up first then.”
“Then thank you for the trouble.”
“No problem~”
Ji Chengyun didn’t say anything else. The most important thing now was to set up the tents as quickly as possible.
His dad and mom still needed his help.
His dad knew how to set up a tent, but because that tent was larger, it required more strength. His dad’s current physical condition was weak, not to mention he couldn’t even carry the tent bag, let alone set up the tent.
His mom also didn’t know how to set up a tent. Even with his dad guiding her, it would be very troublesome, so Ji Chengyun needed to finish the work here as soon as possible to go back and help his parents.
Fortunately, Luo Yao and Zhang Xinrou were also helping Ji Chengyun, so setting up this small tent wasn’t difficult.
It took nearly an hour to set up the two tents perfectly.
“Phew, that was exhausting. Finally, it’s done,” Ji Yunqi said, hands on her hips, looking at the tents with emotion.
“Why are you tired? You didn’t lift a finger,” Ji Chengyun quipped from the side.
Ji Yunqi was slightly stunned, and looked at her son with unfriendly eyes, “Can you stop undermining your dad all the time?”
“Hehehe~”
“Brat, you’re asking for it!” Ji Yunqi, rarely angered by her son, couldn’t help but chase after him, determined to teach the boy a lesson.
Ji Chengyun seized the opportunity, pushed his loli dad towards Ye Mingkong, winked at his mom, and gave a hint.
Ye Mingkong also followed the direction Ji Yunqi was backing into and caught her in his arms…
