Chapter 316 - Will You Lose? (2/2)

Just as she thought this, she saw Gao Yanchen stretching his legs and relaxing his entire body. His eyes swept over and he said, “Sister Xi, do you want to compete? Don’t give in to me. I definitely won’t lose.”

Xue Xi instantly gave up on that thought.

Little Flame was a very prideful person. If she’d chosen to have gone easy on him just now, she would have definitely insulted him. Hence, she had to do her best in this compet.i.tion.

Xue Xi nodded. “Okay.”

Flame Number One and the rest started cheering. “Brother Chen, you can do it!”

The two of them stood at the starting line and, with a “start,” Xue Xi and Gao Yanchen rushed up the mountain path!

Flame Number One and the rest followed closely behind them.

Xue Xi knew that Bin Mountain was not very high, but it would take at least an hour to reach the top of the mountain. Hence, she did not sprint at the start and followed closely behind Gao Yanchen.

He grew up in Bin City and was more familiar with mountain climbing.

Following behind him, she reached for the top of the mountain in a sprint.

The two of them were not fast in the beginning, so Flame Number One and Qin Shuang could still keep up.

Bin Mountain was a wild mountain that no one tended, but the mountain path was safe. There were usually many people who came to climb the mountain, but today, it was too hot. If Flame Number One had not wanted to create an opportunity for Gao Yanchen to defeat Xue Xi, they would not have come today.

Hence, they did not meet many people along the way.

The higher they climbed, the cooler the air became. Xue Xi and Gao Yanchen did not stop walking, and Xue Xi was still in the mood to admire the beautiful scenery in the mountains.

The air here seemed to be much fresher. A place with ample oxygen would make one feel relaxed and tranquil.

Xue Xi pressed down on the baseball cap on her head and looked at Little Flame, who was a meter away from her. He did not have much sweat on his body and his breathing was very stable. It seemed that he did indeed frequently climb mountains.

Flame Number One and Qin Shuang were already panting. They were as tired as dogs and collapsed to the side.

At this moment, chattering sounds came from the mountain. Everyone turned around and saw a group of young boys and girls in summer clothes getting out of a car. It was someone they knew—Zhou Zhen!

Seeing them, Zhou Zhen was also stunned. His eyes lit up as he shouted, “G.o.ddess, Qin Shuang, did you guys see the message in the group chat? I thought you guys wouldn’t come!”

Xue Xi: “?”

Qin Shuang: “?”

The two of them looked at each other.

Zhou Zhen smiled and said, “However, you guys are late. Our cla.s.s organized a mountain climb for 2 PM. It’s already past 4 PM. Everyone is starting to descend the mountain and there are only a few people still climbing. What are you guys doing?”

Xue Xi brushed past him and continued chasing after Gao Yanchen.

Qin Shuang hurriedly explained, “Sister Xi and Brother Chen are competing. Whoever gets to the top first will be the boss of the Roaring Flame Society! Hehe…”

When Zhou Zhen heard this, he immediately said, “I’ll go back again and take a look! I want to witness the birth of the leader of the Roaring Flame Society!”

The moment he said this, the students turned around, also wanting to watch the fun.

Unfortunately, Xue Xi and Gao Yanchen had already left the rest behind. Along the way, they b.u.mped into the other students from Cla.s.s One.

Xue Xi nodded at everyone as a form of greeting and continued to climb up.

However, after taking a few steps, she realized that there was no one on the mountain path anymore.

Xue Xi turned around and saw that although Qin Shuang and the rest were trying their best to follow, they were still a thousand meters away, and the distance was getting bigger.

When she looked up again, she saw Gao Yanchen turning around.

Their gazes met in the air. When Gao Yanchen grinned, Xue Xi also smiled and the mist in her eyes slowly dissipated.

This kind of compet.i.tion seemed very interesting. It made her feel an inexplicable sense of happiness.

The mountaintop was right in front of her. She had to speed up.

However, just as she was about to speed up, Gao Yanchen turned around and accelerated!

The two of them turned a corner and left the people behind even further!

The mountain path was a little winding.

The branches on both sides intersected. As they walked, they took note to prevent themselves from being touched by the branches. After walking for about ten minutes, they finally saw the mountaintop.

The two of them accelerated again!

Xue Xi looked at Gao Yanchen and realized that he was indeed very good at climbing mountains. He had always maintained a distance of one meter ahead of her. If this continued, she would definitely lose…

At this thought, Xue Xi accelerated again!
