Band Girl Drink Mixing Action

After hearing what Qingchuan Xiang said, Li Xi also propped himself up curiously and looked back.

Tent, portable wood stove, a set of small pots, mini fishing rods...

This guy, although he may not seem to be doing anything on the surface, is actually quite enthusiastic. Li Xi looked at these well-prepared items and could deeply feel Qingchuan Xiang's enthusiasm.

"Tent, only one?"

As he looked, Lixi discovered something was wrong. Among the many small objects that were designed for convenience, the size of the tent was really eye-catching, and Lixi quickly realized that there seemed to be only one prepared.

"Because I didn't know Li Xi would be coming, I thought that for Xiao Deng and me, one tent would be more than enough. But even if there are three of us sleeping, it should be barely enough."

You guy, you originally planned to sleep in the same bed with Xiaodeng, a single woman and a single woman, in a small space in the wilderness!

"So Auntie isn't coming with us?"

"You little ones, go out and play. Although I'm also interested, I won't disturb your fun." Qingchuan Shu smiled, with the self-awareness of a parent, "I'll drop you off nearby and pick you up tomorrow.

"I need you two to keep an eye on my little Xiang. Don't let her drink unknown water in the wild, or jump directly into the water while fishing."

"Stereotypes are not good—"

Looking at the lively atmosphere in the car, even Xiaodeng, who had been looking out the window, shifted her gaze back. Seeing Xiaoxiang mumbling softly and Lixi looking much more relaxed than usual, Xiaodeng couldn't help but laugh softly.

Although it hasn't officially started yet, Xiaodeng has already started to think that it's great to be able to invite Xiaoxiang and Lixi to go camping this time.

........................

When we arrived at the camping site, perhaps because it was just an ordinary weekend, there were not many people camping. From a distance, there were only two or three tents standing at a long distance from each other.

After taking the things out of the car, Qingchuan Shu asked Xiaodeng and Lixi for their parents' phone numbers just in case, and then drove away, leaving the three of them staring at the pile of things.

"Let's put up the tent first. After that, we'll see what to do next." Qingchuan Xiang joked, "I hope it won't be stargazing time by the time we finish setting up the tent. I was thinking of walking around."

"Do you know how to set up a tent?" Li Xi looked at the thing on the ground and didn't even know how to take the first step.

"Learn now, look for videos online."

"I saw you were so enthusiastic along the way, I thought you had already learned it a long time ago."

“Learning to set up a tent on site is also part of the fun.”

At this moment, Xiao Deng raised his hand: "Um, I know how to set up a tent. I've camped with my family before, but there are some steps that I don't have the strength to do well..."

"Then I'll help with the heavy work. Xiao Deng, just give me instructions." Li Xi stepped forward on her own initiative. After all, she was indeed the strongest among the three. To be honest, she could beat down two people at once by herself.

The process of setting up the tent went smoothly. While Lixi and Deng were setting up the tent, Qingchuan Xiang sorted out the pile of things on the ground and put them away, and then started his own work.

First, I set up a small stool and a small but sufficient folding wood stove. Although I wanted to try the feeling of collecting firewood to burn, I looked at the work of setting up the tent and it seemed quite efficient. So I didn't waste time and directly used the solid alcohol I brought to light the fire.

"Hmm... if it's too easy, there won't be much point in camping." Looking at the easily lit flames, Qingchuan Xiang thought that he must try the feeling of using ordinary firewood tonight. While putting a kettle on the fire, he was not stingy and filled the ordinary kettle with mineral water, ready to make tea.

If I don’t lose some mineral water, I won’t have an excuse to scoop up stream water and boil it to drink (whispering).

Wait for the water to boil, then add the black tea leaves and some milk to prevent it from sticking to the pot. Then all you have to do is wait.

Hey, today's camping is off to a great start...

"Hey there, you guy sitting on the bench, come over and help!" Li Xi, who was holding the tent, shouted, "How dare you say it's too easy!"

Chapter 258 A Theater for Three

In fact, there are many tents available on the market that have been specially designed to simplify the steps of setting up the tent. There are no parts to fix the tent to the ground. They are the type that can be placed on the ground once they are opened and people can crawl into them. The problem is that they are not windproof and can be easily blown away.

Qingchuan Xiang did not buy this simple tent, but in fact she did not consider these problems at all.

Just like when I first started the fire, I figured since I was camping, I had to make it a little more formal and challenging! I wanted to be a true wilderness survivalist! So I bought a traditional tent that required a lot of tedious work, including driving ground spikes and installing support poles.

To call it traditional is actually a certain simplification, otherwise these three people might have to set up the tent until night.

"Lixi... so amazing."

Xiao Deng looked at Li Xi with some surprise and admiration as he hammered the ground nails neatly and efficiently. It was as if his powerful strength treated the soil as nothing. He was worthy of being called a god of war, and he could directly destroy the laws of physics.

A mere support pole was no problem at all. Although the pole itself was quite elastic, after Li Xi fixed one end of the pole and was about to fix the other end at the diagonal position, it was as if he was just pulling a soft wire. With superb control, he bent the pole into a curve with the right degree of curvature and pulled it to the other end.

Xiao Deng also wanted to help with the second support pole, but after one end was fixed, Xiao Deng tried hard to bend the other end down, and almost lost his grip. Fortunately, Li Xi called Qingchuan Xiang to help, and Xiang happened to walk to the side of the lamp and grabbed the pole to avoid tragedy.

"I'll do this."

Although he may not be able to beat Li Xi, Qingchuan Xiang is still very confident in his arm strength. He easily fixed the pole, but he could not reach the same effortless posture as Li Xi.

"Lixi, actually powerful... awe-inspiring."

Qingchuan Xiang, who only felt the power of Li Xi after actually getting the hang of it, couldn't help but mutter, with timidity in his eyes, and almost worshipped himself on the ground from the bottom of his heart.

"What weird things are you saying again?" Li Xi took the remaining parts unhappily. "Forget it, I'll do the rest. Xiao Deng, just stay by and tell me what to do."

"You were the one who asked me to come here, but now you're looking down on me and crying~"

Qingchuan Xiang rubbed his eyes hypocritically, trying to pretend to cry, but he couldn't control his overdeveloped tear glands and really cried a few tears, and then... Qingchuan Xiang couldn't control it anymore.

So when Li Xi was about to turn around and continue complaining about Qingchuan Xiang, he saw tears like beads with broken strings, seeping out of the blue in Qingchuan Xiang's eyes.

Really, really crying? Li Xi was a little flustered and hurried forward, trying to take away Qingchuan Xiang's hand that was rubbing her eyes so that he could see more clearly.

"Wait a minute, it's okay." Qingchuan Xiang waved his hand to stop the two nervous people. "I couldn't control my tears after the first one fell. Xiao Deng, you should have seen me like this before."

"I've only seen Xiaoxiang sweating uncontrollably..."

"What's going on? What does it look like?" Li Xi was a little confused.

"To put it simply, it's any physiological reaction that causes water to come out of my body. Once it starts, there's a tendency for it to continue uncontrollably. For example, sweating and tears."

Qingchuan Xiang explained to Li Xi that the two of them were not in the same school, and when they met, they were basically in RiNG and had no chance to sweat. It was indeed difficult for Li Xi to see Xiang in that state.

"So even when I yawn, I can't stop crying."

"Are you really a human being and not some strange aquatic species?" Li Xi couldn't help but complain, and then immediately thought of what happened at Qingchuan Xiang's house yesterday.

"You usually drink a lot of water, and even yesterday you did something like that. Could it be because of your bad habit of drinking so much water?"

Lixi was referring to the incident yesterday when Qingchuan Xiang licked the sweat on the back of her neck while she was washing dishes.

"It's not a habit. It's not something I can control." Qingchuan Xiang retorted slightly, "As for yesterday... Li Xi, just take it as it is..."

"Your hesitancy is so suspicious!"

Li Xi covered the part that was licked yesterday with a chill. She also helped Qingchuan Xiang find excuses for the other party's behavior. Xiang's behavior seemed like he had some strange ideas about her.

"Yesterday...did anything happen between Xiaoxiang and Lixi?"

It would have been fine if Xiao Deng hadn't said anything, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Li Xi suddenly thought of a terrible possibility. He ignored the half-set-up tent and grabbed Qingchuan Xiang and pulled her aside, lowering his voice so that only the two of them could hear it.

"You didn't do anything to Xiao Deng, did you?" Li Xi didn't dare to imagine the scene where the innocent Xiao Deng was offended by Qingchuan Xiang, the lecher. "You can do this to me, but if you dare to do that to Xiao Deng..."

"Li Xi..." Qingchuan Xiang was grabbed by the shoulders. Now Li Xi's huge strength that could make the tent completely obedient was used on himself. It was an experience of being controlled to the point of being unable to move. A normal person would have thought that he was being raped.

"Your thinking is slipping too quickly, and what you said is too strange."

It's like what a senior would say in a small notebook when he wants to protect his juniors.

"Just tell me whether you did it or not."

"No, actually, there was one time when Xiao Deng tortured me so much that I was sweating all over and had to change clothes."

"what?"

Seeing Li Xi's expression of disbelief, Qingchuan Xiang directly called Xiao Deng.

"Deng, do you remember what happened at the karaoke bar before?" Qingchuan Xiang was referring to the first day of school when the two of them and Aine were surrounded by two people.

"Karaoke..." Xiao Deng was confused for a moment when she was suddenly asked this question, but maybe because it was the first day of the band's real reunion, or because Qingchuan Xiang's on-site changing of clothes left too deep an impression on Deng, she quickly remembered it.

Then his little face turned red all of a sudden and steam started to come out of his head.

Xiao Deng's behavior, which could not be concealed at all, directly proved the truthfulness of Qingchuan Xiang's words. Li Xi felt that a huge crack suddenly appeared in the image of Xiao Deng in his mind.

It turns out that Xiao Deng is a carnivorous penguin...?

"Um, Xiao Deng, if you want, I can do it too!"

"Eh?"

The scene became more and more chaotic. It was obviously just a stage for three people, but it was so exciting and the plot was so complicated that it was like a late-night melodramatic TV series.

Can we set up the tent properly if we continue like this?

Chapter 259 Confusing words

Although there were many difficulties and obstacles that had nothing to do with setting up the tent itself, the three members of the camping team finally overcame all the difficulties and successfully set up a tent that looked pretty good.

"Here, Lixi and Xiaodeng, this is freshly brewed milk tea." Qingchuan Xiang, who had been lazy all the time, immediately offered the two of them the tea he had brewed on a small stove after setting up the tent, trying to avoid being liquidated.

In order to make himself look less lazy, Qingchuan Xiang also boasted:

"Wow, this isn't just any ordinary milk tea. It's made with real flames. If you think its greatness is just a taste bud, you're totally wrong!"

Xiao Deng was stunned when he heard this, and seemed to be frightened. As if he was looking at some priceless treasure, he stretched out his hands in awe, ready to take the milk tea that Qingchuan Xiang handed to him after filling the cup.

Li Xi sneered, she was not as naive as Xiao Deng!

"Oh? Then what's so great about it? Let our drink master explain it in detail."

When being questioned, Qingchuan Xiang did not show any guilt, but seemed to be waiting for Li Xi to ask questions and was already prepared.

A criminal who wants to escape from his crime will not make no preparations and just stand in the dock waiting to be pressured by you!

"As long as you put it in front of your nose and sniff it gently, you will immediately understand the secret..." The person who is good at misleading people with words and provoking them to confuse others perked up and began to use her full ability.

To captivate the mind with words, one must rely on more than just words. One must have a sincere look in one's eyes. Those clear, seemingly pure blue eyes are an innate advantage. Simply by opening them a little wider than usual, they naturally seem to be flowing, filled with deep affection.

Body language is also a language of expression. Just as a magician relies on various small movements to mislead the audience, the person who uses sweet talk does much the same thing. His soft and slender fingers spin to guide the two people's eyes to look at the ordinary milk tea, while the other hand makes a lifting gesture to make the milk tea look really noble.

Words are the fired bullets, and the tongue is the gun that fires them; the impression they create should match. Pale lips cannot produce powerful sounds; sharp teeth cannot bite with impulsive force; the meaning must be ambiguous and difficult to grasp; a soft tongue should not be as hard as words; words must be woven into a delicate knot before being uttered. Even if it's a knot that makes people exclaim, "Get out, Riddler!", the tone of voice must give it a charming veneer.

"In addition to the rich aroma of milk and the sweetness of tea leaves, you can also smell the subtle aroma of charcoal and the fragrance of wood..."

"stop."

But the unfriendly visitor seemed to be totally unimpressed by this. He raised his hand to stop Qingchuan Xiang's performance. There was no smile on his face, but instead a chilling chill that froze the sweet coating wrapped around the words and peeled it off.

"I saw you used alcohol to light the fire, not wood or charcoal."

It seems that Qingchuan Xiang just made up a lie that would be discovered immediately, but this is Xiang's purpose!

As long as he used an overly obvious lie to divert Li Xi's attention from Qingchuan Xiang's slacking off, even if it was a lie, what did it matter! There were so many ways to make a forced explanation, and this shaky, seemingly easily exposed "forced" explanation would only continue to attract the other party's attention!

Seeing that Li Xi seemed to have indeed fallen into the trap he had set, Qingchuan Xiang could already see the ending where he and Li Xi would get away safely after a quarrel.

No, I can't laugh yet. I have to hold it in. Wait 35 seconds... After 35 seconds, I'll declare victory.

However, just as Qingchuan Xiang was about to continue spreading rumors to confuse the public, Li Xi stopped her.

"Forget it, let me drink a sip first, I am indeed a little thirsty."

Li Xi's decisive attitude was like drawing a knife to cut off water, blocking Qingchuan Xiang's already organized words back into his mouth.

Qingchuan Xiang could only watch as Li Xi took the milk tea and began to drink it. This, this also counts as me passing the test, right? Although all my preparations were useless, the feeling of powerlessness, like hitting cotton, was quite uncomfortable.

However, after Li Xi finished the first sip, his brows slightly furrowed:

"The taste is okay, but average. It feels like two things were just randomly cooked together, and the cooking time doesn't seem to be well controlled. Is this your standard?"

"Hmm." Qingchuan Xiang suddenly covered his chest, as if he had suffered a huge blow, and his whole body was about to go dark.

Li Xi was truly suited to this kind of cold yet earnest criticism... Especially that last rhetorical question, which was like a stab in the heart of Qingchuan Xiang. Even being exposed for slacking off was much better than being told that.

"I'm sorry, I had other intentions and failed to bring you the best taste experience. This is my dereliction of duty..."

"Why did you suddenly enter work mode?" Li Xi didn't expect that because of his habit of being decisive and efficient, he inadvertently found the best way to deal with Qingchuan Xiang. He didn't argue with her, but went straight to the pain point!

"Xiao Xiang, I think it tastes great..."

"Deng, don't comfort me. I was just thinking about secretly consuming the water I brought without any care."

"Use the water? What do you want to do?" Li Xi looked at the pot used to make milk tea. Even though two cups had been scooped for her and Xiao Deng, the amount in it still looked quite large. It seemed that Qingchuan Xiang had used a lot of mineral water.

"I thought that after I used up the water I brought, I would have a reason to try the taste of river water in the wild later..." Qingchuan Xiang, who was broken by Li Xi's words questioning the professional ethics of the bartender, no longer had the mood to argue and admitted it honestly.

"what?"

Li Xi had never expected this to be the reason. Now she understood why Ms. Kiyokawa Shu had specifically asked the other two to help keep an eye on this guy on the way here.

"You, go spread the bedding in the tent now." Li Xi ordered bluntly, asking Qingchuan Xiang to find something to do and not always think about stealing water. "And from now on, keep the water you brought for me. If you are thirsty, come to me for it."

"it is good……"

Xiao Deng was also surprised when she saw Qingchuan Xiang, who seemed much more obedient and pitiful than usual under Li Xi's majesty. She usually didn't see Qingchuan Xiang like this.
