    Chapter 35 Can your alpha set up a tent?Tan Lou is grinding…

    Tan Lou ground his back molars, his eyes fell on the light but clear tooth mark on the back of Cheng Cheng’s neck, and he couldn’t help but reach out and pull him to the old camphor tree beside the mountain road.

    The shadow of the tree shone through the tiny spots of light and fell on his tight profile. His tone was deliberately low and serious: “I am from the Omega Protection Association. Now we have discovered that some Betas in society are also vulnerable groups, and we are working to help Betas fight for the rights they deserve. If you encounter anything, don’t hide it, just tell me.”

    After saying that, he took out his ID from his mountaineering bag. The blue gilded cover had the words “International OMEGA Conservation Association” written on it. When he opened the first page, he saw Tan Lou’s mugshot and identity information. At that time, Tan Lou still had thick black hair.

    “It’s okay…” Cheng Cheng wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by the guide’s words.

    “Everyone divide into twos! Hurry up and set up tents!” The guide stood in the center of the temporary camp, waving an orange flag in his hand, and the mountain wind swept his voice across the entire pine forest. “Considering that there are Omegas in the team who cannot keep up, we will rest here at noon and continue walking to the top of the mountain in the afternoon!”

    The crowd suddenly became lively, and the fragrance of pine needles mixed with the moist smell of earth filled the air.

    The trend of grouping was obvious. The Alphas gathered together naturally, rolling up their sleeves and discussing the techniques of setting up tents; the Omegas went to the stream to fetch water and talked softly.

    Tan Lou quickly grabbed Cheng Cheng’s arm: “I’m with you. Since you said it’s okay, tell me about the love history of you and your boyfriend.”

    Cheng Cheng was a little helpless. He felt that this alpha was too enthusiastic and gossipy. Is it an occupational disease?Can’t he fall in love normally?

    After receiving the tent kit from the guide, Cheng Cheng squatted on the ground and unpacked it. The metal shone in the sun.

    While he awkwardly put the buckle on the bracket interface, he fooled Tan Lou: “We are just in a normal relationship. We know the basics. I was…his subordinate. Later, we got along with each other and developed feelings for each other, and then we were together.”

    The more Tan Lou listened, the more questions he got, and he frowned and said, “Are you sure he’s not hiding anything from you?”

    Cheng Cheng shook his head in confusion: “No, he is a very good and kind person.”

    Tan Lou looked at Cheng Cheng’s honest face and didn’t look like someone who would be confused with his boss. Based on his many years of experience in the industry, he concluded that Cheng Cheng was lying.

    Many times the victims will not realize that they are victims at all. They have lived in lies from the beginning, never been exposed to the truth, and regard the other party’s little kindness as evidence that they are worthy of trust.

    He sighed silently in his heart and didn’t ask any more questions. He stretched out his hand to take the stent in Chengcheng’s hand. He pressed his thumb on the interface and turned it gently. There was a “click” sound and the stent was firmly connected together.

    “You see, it all depends on cleverness.”

    “So that’s it! No wonder I couldn’t get in for a long time.” Cheng Cheng’s eyes lit up, “Let me be the next one!”

    This was his first time setting up a tent, and it was a professional model suitable for mountain camping.

    Last night, he deliberately found a bunch of instructional videos to learn from, but when he actually practiced it, he realized that the movements in the videos were much simpler than they actually were.

    However, with Tan Lou’s demonstration, he successfully completed the remaining three brackets.When he straightened up and rubbed his sore knees, he realized that Tan Lou had spread the tent cloth on the supports. The silver-gray tent was blown by the mountain wind and swelled slightly, like a big bird spreading its wings and about to fly.

    The last process was completed, and the two of them worked together to smash the tent pegs into the ground, and the tent finally stood firmly under the pine tree.

    Tan Lou looked at Cheng Cheng’s excitement and couldn’t help but ask, “Can your alpha know how to set up a tent?”

    Cheng Cheng was stunned. He had never gone camping with Wei Zhi, but even if he went camping, he would never see him setting up a tent.

    “No.”

    Cheng Cheng added: “But this doesn’t mean anything. Doesn’t it mean he’s not a good alpha if he can’t set up a tent?”

    “Hmm,” Tan Lou said, but in fact he thought in his heart that he had to keep in touch with Cheng Cheng so that if anything happened, he could contact her as soon as possible.

    “We are destined to meet each other. Let’s add WeChat.” Tan Lou took out his mobile phone.

    Cheng Cheng had a good impression of him at first, but now after he questioned Wei Zhi, his favorable impression of him has dropped significantly. He doesn’t want to join WeChat because he feels that the other person is used to looking at people through colored glasses.

    Seeing his hesitant look, Tan Lou was even more sure of his own judgment. There was definitely an ulterior secret in it.

    He leaned forward and said softly: “More friends mean more paths. I really want to be friends with you.”

    “Okay.” Cheng Cheng couldn’t save face, so he clicked on the WeChat QR code and scanned it. After passing it, he found that Tan Lou’s avatar turned out to be Kapok.

    He asked curiously: “You really like kapok! I thought you were a botanist or something like that at first.”

    Tan Lou picked up his hair and said, “My parents both study plants, and I like them too, but I prefer studying people.”

    Cheng Cheng was very interested when he heard “researching plants” and was about to listen to him continue talking. Unexpectedly, he turned to “researching people” again.

    Cheng Cheng said speechlessly: “You are from the Omega Protection Association. Are you on vacation now? Why are you hiking here?”

    “My colleagues and I came to do business nearby, and she went to meet friends. I am also free.” Tan Lou looked at the mountains in the distance. The morning fog had not yet cleared, and the green mountains seemed to be immersed in ink paintings. “Shuanghe Town is really a good place. The air is much fresher than in the city.”

    He changed the subject and returned to Cheng Cheng: “What about you? Are you here for vacation?”

    “Yes.”

    “With your boyfriend?”

    …Isn’t that nonsense?

    Cheng Cheng was too lazy to answer Tan Lou, for fear that he would suffer from occupational diseases again and would catch him asking questions.

    “The guide just said that you can pick wild fruits and dried mushrooms. Let’s go!” Tan Lou didn’t notice his indifference at all. He pulled him with a smile and walked into the small forest next to the camp. The pine needles made a “squeaking” sound under his feet.

    When Wei Zhi arrived at the restaurant, it was not yet half past nine, but Jiang Lingfei was already there, frowning and typing frantically on her mobile phone.

    This damn Tanlou!I don’t know where he went!

    “Oh, Mr. Wei!” Jiang Lingfei looked up and saw Wei Zhi coming. She brushed her long hair that fell to her shoulders and stood up to greet him.

    She wore a smart off-white suit and skirt, which was a bit out of tune with the warm atmosphere of the restaurant.

    Wei Zhi smiled and shook hands with her: “Miss Jiang, long time no see.”

    After sitting down again, Jiang Lingfei took a sip of water to moisten her throat and said directly: “Mr. Wei, you contacted me after so long, I thought you didn’t want to adopt the child.”

    “I was not in good health some time ago and was very busy at work, so I put it aside.” Wei Zhi wiped his hands with the hot towel handed to him by the waiter, “Has Miss Jiang received all the things I sent?”

    Jiang Lingfei nodded lightly and tapped her fingertips on the table: “The donations and medicines have been received. On behalf of the Omega Protection Association, I would like to thank you, but there will be a lot of adoption procedures we need to go through. I don’t know when Mr. Wei will be free for our inspector’s home visit.”

    Wei Zhi signaled to the waiter that the food was ready, and he said calmly: “Let’s wait until my wife and I finish our trip. I have an appointment with you today because I want to confirm the time in person.”

    “The relationship between you and your lover sounds very good,” Jiang Lingfei raised her chin and changed the topic, “But why haven’t I heard that you are married before? You have always been in a secret marriage?”

    Wei Zhi’s face showed just the right amount of embarrassment: “Yes, I used to be a public figure and I still have a large fan base. It’s not appropriate to expose my marriage rashly.”

    Jiang Lingfei curled her lips inwardly.She despised these actors the most. They were all born drama queens. The smiles on their faces were faker than the cream in the restaurant. They cried bitterly in front of her, but in fact they didn’t know what they were thinking in their hearts.

    Once upon a time, an actress wanted to adopt an abandoned omega girl. During the inspection by the Omega Association, the actress always showed great maternal love and patience. She went to the orphanage on time every day to accompany the child, tell stories and buy snacks.

    But after the inspection period passed and the adoption formalities were officially completed, the actress not only refused to return to the association, but was also exposed to the scandal of living with an unknown director.

    It turns out that she had been acting before, and in order to consolidate her reputation as a caring person, she came up with the idea of ​​adopting a child.

    Wei Zhi had been in contact with her on and off for a year, and Jiang Lingfei was unwilling to approve his adoption of the little Omega boy from the bottom of her heart.

    First of all, Wei Zhi’s legs and feet were inconvenient and it was difficult to take care of himself. How could he take care of a child?Secondly, there is something fishy about an Alpha insisting on adopting an Omega.

    She had previously advised Wei Zhi to either adopt an older Alpha or choose a Beta, but the other party was adamant and it had to be the little boy.When asked why, he only said that his health was not good and he might not be able to have children in this life, so he just wanted a child to accompany him.

    If it weren’t for the double-blind system, Jiang Lingfei wouldn’t be able to find out the relationship between Wei Zhi and the child privately. She really wanted to investigate it carefully.

    Some time ago, Wei Zhi’s adoption procedures had been held up by her for too long. Unless she came up with a stronger reason to reject it, she would have to go through it directly. Jiang Lingfei came up with an idea.

    The association just passed a new bill that requires adopters to be in good marital status so that the children can grow up in a friendly and loving environment. Because these children have suffered more or less, single-parent families will have an impact on the physical and mental state of the children.

    Jiang Lingfei quickly rejected Wei Zhi’s application. Unexpectedly, he asked to apply again soon, and he was already married!

    The problem is that she can’t see the wedding date, which belongs to Wei Zhi’s privacy. She can only see Wei Zhi’s marital status, which is indeed married. She can only request a home visit from the inspector.

    Jiang Lingfei doesn’t believe in evil. No matter how superb her acting skills are, she can’t escape the flaws in the details of her life. The state of life between two people cannot be deceiving.

    The dish came, and the creamy pasta was served. The golden cream covered the strong noodles, and was sprinkled with green parsley. The aroma spread instantly.

    Jiang Lingfei took a forkful and put it into her mouth, her eyes brightening slightly. Unexpectedly, Wei Zhi tasted quite well. The taste of this restaurant was well blended, retaining the traditional flavor of pasta while weakening the greasy feeling of cream, which was very in line with the taste of Chinese people.

    Wei Zhi also took a few bites and felt that the tip of his tongue was coated in thick cream. He was so tired that he quickly put down his fork.

    “Ms. Jiang, let’s decide on Saturday. You bring the inspector to visit your home.”

    Jiang Lingfei quickly swallowed the noodles in her mouth and wiped her mouth gracefully: “Okay.”

    As soon as she finished speaking and was about to pry a few more words into Wei Zhi, the waiter came over with a box of mysterious things with the lid still closed.

    Wei Zhi frowned: “What is this?”

    “Sir, Miss, this is the surprise part of our set meal!” The waiter smiled brightly, knowing nothing about it, and reached out to lift the tinfoil cover.

    “Wait!” Wei Zhigang wanted to stop him, but the tin foil had already been lifted.

    Pink rose petals and colorful balloons spurted out instantly, and the hydrogen balloons floated upward one after another, sticking to the crystal chandelier on the ceiling. The petals fell, falling on the table and the shoulders of the two of them, and even the air was dyed with a sweet floral fragrance.

    For a moment, the atmosphere was extremely awkward.

    The restaurant instantly became quiet, and the guests at the next table all looked over with curiosity in their eyes.

    Jiang Lingfei’s face instantly turned cold, and she sneered: “Mr. Wei, what do you mean? You asked me to talk about business, and you still do this kind of trick?”

    Wei Zhi held up his forehead and felt the sun beating sharply: “This set meal of yours is not a couple set meal, is it?”

    “That’s right! The front desk should have told you when you made the reservation!” The smile on the waiter’s face froze, and he looked blankly at the tense expressions of the two people.

    Wei Zhi understood that it was all the receptionist’s fault.

    He scolded: “I don’t know, please take your things down quickly. This lady and I are just ordinary friends. And no one told me when I made the reservation that the front desk is still on duty. I want to complain!”

    Wei Zhi was indeed a little angry. He could probably guess what dirty plot the front desk was thinking after hearing that he had booked the package.

    The waiter turned pale with fright and bowed and apologized repeatedly: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Mr. Wei! I’ll report it to the manager right away! Leave now!”

    He looked up at the balloons hanging on the ceiling and asked cautiously: “Do you need me to change the table?”

    Wei Zhi looked at the petals on the ground with a headache, and said coldly: “No, we have to leave.”

    Jiang Lingfei was watching the show from the side and interrupted at the right time: “You have made such a big mistake, so giving me two more creamy pastas is not too much, right?”

    “Okay, okay, I’ll pack it for you right away!”

    Wei Zhi glanced at the cold cream pasta on the table. The cream had condensed on the surface of the noodles, and the white flowers were a bit disgusting. He asked Jiang Lingfei: “Is this really that delicious?”

    “Just because you don’t like it doesn’t mean others don’t like it either,” Jiang Lingfei packed up her things and stood up, “I have work to do in the afternoon, so I’ll leave first.”

    Wei Zhi had lost his appetite a long time ago, and his chest felt a little tight when he returned to the empty room.

    He picked up his phone and took a look. Cheng Cheng hadn’t sent a message yet. There was no signal on the mountain. He probably wouldn’t be able to come back from hiking until the afternoon, which made him feel even worse.
