Chapter 56 - Forks

Tao Chu Liang and Qiao Qing Hao were walking in the front, with Tao Yi Fei and Xiang Chen Xi following behind them. However, because Tao Yi Fei had twisted his leg, it had completely slowed down Xiang Chen Xi and Tao Yi Fei's speed.

While walking, Tao Chu Liang and Qiao Qing Hao arrived at a fork in the road. Tao Chu Liang was hesitating on which side he should take, but on the other hand, Qiao Qing Hao pointed to one side without hesitation.

"Chu Liang, this way isn't wrong. Look at the trees over here, they are especially neat, they must have been planted on purpose. As for the trees over there, they were crooked and looked to be naturally grown. This means that this road has usually been stepped on by people, which means that someone must have been here recently, and no one has asked about that place for a long time. However, both sides of the road should be able to reach the end.

"I couldn't tell, but you're pretty amazing." Tao Chu Liang praised.

"It's just a small matter. Because I usually like these weird adventures. I might have walked through a lot, but I only know a little bit." Qiao Qing Hao said modestly, but he actually felt extremely happy in his heart.

Does this mean she's beginning to approve of me?

"Let's go." Tao Chu Liang cut off the conversation briefly.

"Alright."

Before Tao Chu Liang lifted his leg, he turned around to take a look, but discovered that the figures of Xiang Chen Xi and Xiang Chen Xi had long since disappeared. Where did they go?

Tao Chu Liang had originally hoped that he could tell Xiang Chen Xi the information he already knew, so that he wouldn't go down the wrong path.

Qiao Qing Hao seemed to have seen through her thoughts, as he went close to her ear and asked, "What's wrong?"

Tao Chu Liang turned around and looked at Qiao Qing Hao's smiling yet not smiling face, smiling as he said, "No, it's fine, let's go."

On the other side, Xiang Chen Xi and Tao Yi Fei had reached the fork in the road. Xiang Chen Xi had his head lowered, he did not want to care about her, and only heard Tao Yi Fei say, "The trees here are so neat, and there are no weeds on the ground, it does not look like an adventure. Big brother Chen Xi, let's go this way, this way, the hotel staff must have set a path for us."

"Alright." The current Xiang Chen Xi didn't have the heart to think about it, his mind was filled with everything about Tao Chu Liang.

Without time to think, Xiang Chen Xi followed Tao Yi Fei's directions and walked to the other side.

Tao Chu Liang and Qiao Qing Hao were walking on the left side of the fork in the road, it was extremely smooth, not really like exploring, but this place was actually quite beautiful.

Tao Yi Fei and Xiang Chen Xi were on the other side, walking further and further away.

After two hours of trekking, everyone was hungry, everyone was tired, and they had almost reached the end of the road. As expected, the two forks in the road ended at the same place, which meant that both sides could come over.

Soon, the day's exploration was over, and everyone gathered at the designated location of the hotel's staff. Next, the hotel staff posted a tent for everyone and said, "Everyone is staying in this jungle today. Everyone must pay attention to safety.

"It's been raining for the past two days, so the road might be a little slippery. When you come out at night, you have to be on your own. There might not be any large ferocious animals in the jungle, but there were still plenty of snakes, so after dark, they kept as far away from the grass as possible. "Also, the hotel has prepared food for everyone, we can eat in the tent now."

As a result, the group slowly dispersed, and each returned to their respective tents. Xiang Chen Xi looked in the direction of Tao Chu Liang.

However, Tao Chu Liang ignored him and turned back to return to the tent.

There was no signal in the forest. Thinking about what had happened these past two days, Tao Chu Liang felt very irritated, so he decided to walk outside the tent to look at the night sky.

But after exiting the tent, the sky was overcast. There were no stars in the sky, no moon, perhaps the forest was too dense and the branches and leaves were too dense, covering the sky. What Tao Chu Liang saw was just a black patch of land above.

The sky was faintly discernible in Tao Chu Liang's eyes, but it was definitely different.

Just at this time, Xiang Chen Xi walked out of a tent. If Tao Chu Liang remembered correctly, that was Tao Yi Fei's tent.

When Tao Chu Liang saw Xiang Chen Xi, Xiang Chen Xi also saw Tao Chu Liang. But just as Xiang Chen Xi wanted to stop Tao Chu Liang, Tao Chu Liang turned and left.

"Tao Chu Liang, wait for me." When Xiang Chen Xi saw Tao Chu Liang, he naturally couldn't let her go. There had been too many misunderstandings between the two of them in the past few days, so it was time for them to have a good chat.

"Waiting for you? How can you bear to leave our lovely little sister Evelyn behind? "Hurry up and go back. She can't leave without you for even a moment." Tao Chu Liang continued to walk forward, his voice sounding especially unhappy.

However, she never stopped walking and kept walking forward. She only wished that she could stay away from this man.

Xiang Chen Xi quickly caught up with her and pulled back Tao Chu Liang's arm, making her look at him.

"Tao Chu Liang, can you not cause trouble? Things are not as you think."

"I'm making a ruckus? Yes, it's always been me. Compared to Tao Yi Fei, I am willful and ignorant, causing trouble for others all the time. Right? Since everything about me is wrong, then why are you following me? Tao Chu Liang said while struggling free from Xiang Chen Xi's restraints.

"Tao Chu Liang, it's enough!" Xiang Chen Xi released Tao Chu Liang's arm and roared.

Tao Chu Liang looked at Xiang Chen Xi in a daze.

Why was she the one being shouted at? It had obviously been him and Tao Yi Fei who had been tangled up, why was it his fault in the end?

"I am not enough. I have to go on. But no matter what I do, it doesn't have anything to do with you, do you understand? "

After saying this, Tao Chu Liang's eyes were filled with tears. She looked at Xiang Chen Xi's eyes coldly, and turned his head angrily. Without saying another word, he walked into the depths of the forest by himself.

Xiang Chen Xi looked at Tao Chu Liang's back, and for the first time, he felt that women were the most complicated creatures in the world.

She clearly didn't speak logic, she was clearly unreasonable, but his heart could not let her go for even a moment.

The weather in the jungle was extremely complex and changeable. It rained several times a day. Now that the sky was cloudy again, leaving her alone was no different from throwing a piece of fat on the chopping block. Who knew what kind of dangers they would encounter?

"Tao Chu Liang, stop right there!" Xiang Chen Xi shouted as he chased after her, hoping to communicate with her. He hoped to clarify what he had to say with her.

But Tao Chu Liang did not even look back as he walked in front, as if he could not hear what Xiang Chen Xi was saying.

Xiang Chen Xi could only walk on the slippery soil, taking the risk of falling at any time, and followed suit.

Finally, he caught up to Tao Chu Liang, but just as he was about to grab onto Tao Chu Liang, he received a loud and clear slap.
