Lauryn didn’t exercise often, and after only half an hour, she started complaining about being tired. She took off
the backpack, which was not heavy to begin with, and when Lennon approached, she stuffed the backpack into
Lennon's arms.
Lauryn pouted and said, “Brother, I'm so tired. | can’t carry it anymore. Can you helpcarry it for a while?”
Lennon pointed at the straps of his backpack on his shoulders and said indifferently, “I couldn't carry it, I'm
already carrying one.”
Lauryn continued to act coquettishly, “Brother, | was really tired, can you please help me?”

“Okay.”
Lauryn heard Lennon's agreement, her eyes lit up with joy, and a smile formed on her lips.
The next second, Lennon took out his phone and made a call, “I called someone to pick you up from the
mountain. Since you're tired, it's better to go back and rest early.”
The smile that had not yet blossomed froze in an instant, and Lauryn was filled with astonishment.“Brother, are
you going to takedown the mountain?”
you
tired?”
Lennon didn't lift his eyelids and continued to bow his head to make a phone call, “Yeah, aren’t Lauryn panicked
and quickly stopped him, “No need, no need. | just took a break and suddenly felt less tired.” She quickly carried
the bag back again, “I'm not tired at all, don’t make a phone call.” “Let's keep going then,” Lennon said,
expressionless, as he put away his phone.
Mariela’s eyes flashed with disdain.
She curved her lips and affectionately linked her arm with Lennon's, sweetly saying, “Lenny, let's go.”
Lauryn:“...”
Jaime:“...”
Lennon was very pleased, feeling all tingly inside from Mariela’s calling, unable to suppress the corners of his
mouth.
A few people walked for a while, and a small river appeared ahead.
Lennon supported Mariela as they stepped on the stones to cross the river.“Marie, be careful.”

The last step had a large gap between the stone and the shore, making it difficult for the girl to cross the river.
The previous girls were all assisted in crossing the river.
Mariela grabbed Lennon’s hand and crossed the river with his help, when suddenly a cry of alarm cfrom
behind.
Mariela turned her head and saw Lauryn standing on a stone in the middle of the river, her face turning pale.
“Brother, | couldn’t make it across. Can you cand help me?”
Lennon paused and frowned at her, then his gaze fell on Jastanding behind Lauryn. He leisurely spoke,
“Jaime, where is your gentlemanly demeanor?”
Lauryn froze.
I looked at Lennon in disbelief.
Jaime’s face darkened slightly as he lifted his eyes to meet Mariela’s calm gaze.
