Chapter 1142 — Disguised Shu

"But... could Wei Zhao have deliberately lured us out here to screw us over?" Su Taizao was still uneasy. "Could there be ghosts around here?"
"Ghosts, my ass! Quit your nonsense!" An Liwen glared at Su Taizao. "Are you sure you're over your illness? Spineless little thing — still wetting the bed, aren't you?"
"I... I'm all better..." Su Taizao's face flushed at once, and he shook his head.
"Then you're fine, so just follow along and cut the chatter!" An Liwen snapped. "Hurry up and keep close. Don't get lost!"
"I won't!" Su Taizao nodded and hurried after him.
"Wow, it's so peaceful here — perfect for a bit of romance!" Feng Xiaoxiao was thoroughly pleased with their surroundings: a boundless stretch of beach and sea, quiet and serene.
Gu Mengyao and Tang Zhi exchanged a look and could not help smiling wryly. Only Feng Xiaoxiao could come out with something like that... then again, so could Xiaoshu, apparently.
"Pick a spot, you lot. We'll make camp here tonight." Wei Zhao parked the car on the beach and spoke to the girls inside.
"It all looks about the same here — let's just find any spot, no?" Tang Zhi gazed out the window and saw that it was getting late, and that the beach looked identical in every direction; anywhere would do.
"Fine, then. Here it is." Wei Zhao nodded and got out to prepare the camping gear.
The young miss and Xiaoshu had bought two tents at the supermarket. One tent could hold five people, but she and Wei Zhao had no real relationship, so there was no way she could share a tent with him — she would not be able to face herself if she did.
"Tang Zhi, why don't you stay with me and Xiaoshu tonight? Let Wei Zhao and Xiaoxiao share?" Gu Mengyao drew Tang Zhi aside and whispered her proposal.
That was the arrangement they had had in mind when they bought the two tents: Wei Zhao and Feng Xiaoxiao in one, and the rest of them with Tang Zhi in the other.
"Mm, of course!" Tang Zhi agreed without a second thought. True, there was a pang of disappointment in her heart — on her first trip out, it should have been her sleeping beside Wei Zhao — but then she thought: she and Wei Zhao had all the time in the world, and chances would come. Xiaoxiao was different; who knew when she might die. Naturally, Tang Zhi had to put her first.
"Ooh, I want to go stay with Brother Shield too!" Shen Yushu cut in.
"You live under the same roof as Wei Zhao every single day — what are you butting in for? Go pitch the tents!" Gu Mengyao glared at Xiaoshu, feeling a little embarrassed.
"Oh..." Shen Yushu turned and went to deal with the tents.
The two tents ended up quite far apart. Gu Mengyao found it odd the moment she saw them: "Xiaoshu, why did you put the two tents a thousand miles apart?"
"Oh, I was afraid that weird noises might come out of Brother Shield's tent at night and keep us awake..." Shen Yushu said.
"Chatterbox Shu, what are you saying? That's not what you told me just now!" Feng Xiaoxiao's face went red in a whoosh, and she glared at Shen Yushu in a fury. "You told me you were afraid our card game at night would disturb them..."
"Exactly — afraid of disturbing you too!" Shen Yushu nodded matter-of-factly.
Gu Mengyao and Tang Zhi exchanged a glance, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. These two really were a match made in heaven: allies the moment an outside enemy appeared, and at each other's throats the moment there was none.
"Rubbish..." Feng Xiaoxiao's face was crimson with suppressed embarrassment.
"It's not rubbish. I know exactly what's going on in your head," Shen Yushu said.
"How would you know? You're not a worm in my belly," Feng Xiaoxiao retorted.
"Because you and I are pretty much the same — I can simulate you. I'm Disguised Shu," Shen Yushu said.
"Then I've got it — you want Wei Zhao too, that's why you'd think such a thing!" Feng Xiaoxiao said.
"Yes, yes, of course I want to. I even want to play a threesome!" Shen Yushu said.
