Chapter 56: Chapter 56: Magical and Brutal

They arrived at the hotel and checked into the best luxury suite.

It was very close to Five Connected Lakes.

The next morning, after breakfast, the two set off.

The scenic area was less than two kilometers away by foot. Thus, they did not call a taxi, but chose to walk. Midway, they spotted shared bicycles by the roadside, and scanned to ride them.

That day, they cycled around the scenic area, riding and stopping intermittently. After a full circle, they felt physically and mentally pleased.

When they returned to the hotel, both were quite tired. After showering, they went to sleep.

The following day, they prepared for the next destination.

Since the distance was short and there were no flights, they planned to take a car.

However, just as they had packed and were ready to leave, Sun Xiaorui suddenly received a phone call. After a few words, her expression abruptly changed and she hastily ended the call, saying she needed to return to her hometown.

Her father had suddenly fainted and was rushed to the hospital. He had suffered a stroke and was still unconscious.

With such a situation at home, Sun Xiaorui obviously was not in the mood to continue traveling, but needed to go back immediately.

Chen Feng, of course, would not stop her. Instead, he immediately helped her book a flight on his phone. Unfortunately, the small local airport had no flights today to her hometown.

There was one at Qi City Airport about five hours later.

It would take two hours by car to get to Qi City.

So, the two set off for Qi City together.

Chen Feng did not plan to accompany Sun Xiaorui back home, even though she seemed to really need his support now. But Chen Feng was principled; they were not boyfriend and girlfriend.

Moreover, Chen Feng did not want to take advantage of the situation to start a romantic relationship.

If Sun Xiaorui developed feelings for him because of this, it would complicate matters.

Their current employer-lover relationship was just fine.

Maintaining a certain distance was mutually beneficial.

Thus, on the way, besides comforting her by saying her father would find his luck, Chen Feng made no mention of going back with her.

They eventually reached Qi City Airport. Almost two hours had passed, and there were still over three hours left until the plane would depart.

Upon entering the airport, they first collected Sun Xiaorui’s ticket and walked towards the waiting area.

Then... they once again encountered Wu Mengting and Lin Wan.

This time, they had changed their clothes, yet their expressions were indescribably tired.

Chen Feng really felt like swearing. This clearly was not a coincidence.

While Sun Xiaorui, worried about her father’s safety, was indeed very surprised and curious as to why they were still here, she had no energy to inquire further.

Lin Wan and Wu Mengting were also extremely astonished, even shocked, their eyes wide open.

This was the third time they had run into each other by coincidence.

It was unbelievable.

But it was the truth.

Had they not been certain that Chen Feng and company couldn’t be following them, they would definitely suspect that they were being stalked.

Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence?

"Are you... planning to head to your next destination for fun?"

This time, Lin Wan took the initiative to greet them and asked out of curiosity.

Sun Xiaorui, preoccupied with her heavy emotions, just shook her head without speaking, so Chen Feng had to briefly explain, "No. Little Rui has an emergency at home and needs to go back."

"Oh, I see."

Lin Wan nodded somewhat enlightened, but ultimately refrained from prying further. After all, their relationship wasn’t yet at a stage that would warrant asking detailed questions about each other’s family matters.

"What’s up with you guys? Why are you still lingering here?"

Having run into each other again, Chen Feng casually asked.

Hearing this, Lin Wan and her companion both expressed sad faces.

Still, they explained bit by bit.

Originally, they had waited at Hei County Airport for most of the night without the arrival of their plane, so they could only rush to Qi City the next day, which was yesterday, to change their flight and successfully got their tickets.

Both of them thought that this time they should definitely be able to make it back to Xiu Zhou, but their luck had other plans.

Yesterday afternoon, just as their flight was about to depart, hail suddenly began to fall, and naturally, their flight was delayed again.

Also, they had been waiting up to now, starting from three in the afternoon yesterday.

Originally, they had hoped that at most they would have taken off last night, but reality was cruel, and they had been waiting until nine in the morning today, with the airline still not providing a definite departure time.

This outcome could almost make them collapse.

Just now, the two of them had decided that if the plane couldn’t depart by one in the afternoon, they would take a train, even if it meant traveling for more than ten hours; they were resigned to it.

They believed it was just their bad luck.

But Chen Feng knew that it was entirely because of him.

It was as if fate was maliciously creating romantic opportunities for him, whether they were good or bad, fate just harshly thrust them upon him.

Previously, Chen Feng had absolutely no guard against this, and simply fell into the trap.

This time he was prepared, but still couldn’t avoid it.

But Chen Feng still thought about avoiding it as much as possible; currently, it was just three coincidental meetings, and they hadn’t ended up in bed together, so the situation was still under control.

"You guys are really unlucky," Chen Feng said with sympathy, "Next time, I think you really should go out less."

Both Lin Wan and Wu Mengting nodded earnestly.

Wu Mengting said, "Once we return, I will sincerely focus on my work and study more in my spare time, striving to enrich myself."

Lin Wan then said, "I will just stay at home every day, livestreaming and playing games, and I won’t go out for at least a month."

Chen Feng chuckled, "You don’t have to go that far. Daily outings are fine; it’s just that long-distance travels like this definitely carry some risks. You two beauties need to be careful when it comes to safety."

The two women nodded again.

Even Lin Wan, who had previously had grievances against Chen Feng, couldn’t help feeling a renewed admiration for him after hearing his words.

Rich, caring, and not bad-looking, he wasn’t too bad after all.

Wu Mengting suddenly asked, "Brother Feng, are you going with Sun?"

Chen Feng shook his head, "No, I won’t be joining her."

Hearing this, Wu Mengting’s eyes slightly narrowed as she asked, "Then are you going back to Xiu Zhou?"

Chen Feng shook his head again, "No, I plan to continue traveling."

"Traveling alone?" Lin Wan looked at him perplexed.

Chen Feng nodded, "Yeah. Traveling alone isn’t so bad."

"Traveling alone, what’s the fun in that? That must be really boring," Lin Wan was straightforward.

"Yeah, Brother Feng, it really isn’t fun being alone," Wu Mengting agreed.

Then, Sun Xiaorui suddenly spoke up, "Tingting, why don’t you continue traveling with Brother Feng? I don’t mind."

"Ah!"

Wu Mengting was momentarily stunned, not knowing how to respond.

But inside, she felt a sudden surge of impulse and anticipation, her eyes slightly shining as she looked at Chen Feng.

Waiting for what Chen Feng would say.

"Let’s forget about that," Chen Feng quickly refused without much hesitation, "I plan to go to Qiongzhou Island next, to see the ends of the sea, then return to Xiu Zhou. Without Little Rui, it certainly loses some charm."

Feeling guilty, Sun Xiaorui said, "You’re planning to just end the trip with the last stop."

Their previously planned itinerary from north to south had its final destination at the southernmost Qiongzhou Island.

"Yeah. Let’s just leave it at that for now. Next time, we’ll have a chance to continue."

Chen Feng had initially planned to go straight back to Xiu Zhou, but he was truly fearful of the invisible hand that insisted on tying him and Wu Mengting together.

So, to be safe, he planned to travel to Qiongzhou first to evade.

Thinking, I’m intentionally flying to such a remote place, see if you can still manage to tie us together.
