Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Then What Is the Group Leader?
Shen Nian was beyond frustrated—in fact, she was about to die of mortification!
She never thought something like this would actually happen to her!
Besides, ever since she started using the Spiritual Spring Water, her body had clearly been strengthened by it. How could she possibly still get diarrhea?!
’Could it be because I was so nervous about what happened on the train that I drank a lot of Spiritual Spring Water to calm my nerves?’
’But the first time I drank the Spiritual Spring Water, this didn’t happen!’
’Ugh, no, that doesn’t matter. Whatever the reason, the most important thing right now is figuring out how to deal with this situation!’
’But how could she possibly bring herself to say anything to Lu Cheng about this?!’
Fortunately, Shen Nian didn’t have to say anything. Lu Cheng had already noticed something was amiss.
Although he was focused on driving, Lu Cheng never took his attention off Shen Nian.
Seeing her enjoy the scenery along the way made the special detour he’d taken worthwhile.
So, he noticed the very instant her expression changed.
Shen Nian was still trying to figure out how to bring it up when she noticed the fast-moving car was slowing to a stop.
"What’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
The moment the car came to a complete stop, Lu Cheng turned to Shen Nian and asked with concern.
"Yeah, my stomach hurts a little."
Shen Nian sighed in relief. She’d finally managed to say it.
"Why the sudden stomachache? Is it bad?"
"Maybe I ate something bad. I... I think I have diarrhea."
Her face flushed red as soon as she said it. ’Of course, saying you have diarrhea in the middle of the road is still pretty embarrassing!’
Lu Cheng thought of the food he’d bought for her yesterday and couldn’t help but feel a pang of guilt. Seeing that her face was starting to turn pale, he didn’t delay any longer, opening his door and getting out of the car.
Lu Cheng was driving the lead car, so when he stopped, the vehicles following him quickly pulled over as well.
"We’re taking a thirty-minute break here."
After getting out, Lu Cheng called out the order to the men behind him before walking over to the passenger side and opening the door for Shen Nian.
"Here, come on out."
"Mm."
Shen Nian nodded, letting Lu Cheng help her out of the car. He then led her toward a small hill up ahead.
Shen Nian understood. ’We’re in the middle of nowhere. There’s probably no other choice but to find a spot nearby to... take care of business.’
Watching Lu Cheng and Shen Nian get out of the car and walk off, one of the men behind them couldn’t help but call out.
"Group leader, where are you taking your lady?"
The words were barely out of his mouth when the man next to him slapped him. The speaker instantly understood and quickly ducked his head.
Thankfully, Lu Cheng didn’t turn around at his comment. The man only breathed a sigh of relief after he’d watched Lu Cheng and Shen Nian walk into the distance.
"Phew, that scared me to death!"
"You’ve got some nerve, making fun of our group leader like that!"
"When would I ever dare make fun of the group leader? It just slipped out! You can’t tell me you weren’t all thinking the same thing!"
Of course, they were. But they all knew what their group leader was like. For the sake of their own hides, they would never, ever say something like that to his face!
But now that the group leader was far away, they naturally didn’t have as many reservations.
"Hey, what do you guys think? Our group leader suddenly stops us in the middle of the road and takes his lady up the hill... He’s not planning on doing something naughty, is he?"
"You’re just a single guy, what would you know about ’naughty things’?"
"Oh, shut up! What’s wrong with being single? Who says single guys can’t know about that stuff? It’s not like you aren’t single too!"
"Don’t change the subject! Isn’t the most important thing right now what’s going on with the group leader and his lady?"
"Exactly! In my opinion, our group leader must have been holding back this whole time and just couldn’t take it anymore, so he..."
"Pfft, is our group leader really that kind of person?"
"What do you know! To us, our group leader is a beast, of course! But in front of his lady, I’m sure there are times when he’s a beast in a different way!"
"So what is he then?"
"Get lost! Figure it out for yourself!"
