Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1249: The Hot Spring on the Ranch

It was the first time Qin Yize saw Gu Qiaoqiao like a place so much.

It was a fondness that came from the depths of her being.

He felt immensely grateful for his wise decision.

Then he saw Gu Qiaoqiao’s fair little feet kicking up the sand, and Qin Yize could no longer sit still. His starry eyes dimmed slightly as he reached out and accurately grabbed Gu Qiaoqiao’s foot. With a gentle tug, he pulled her onto the sand, and then he held Gu Qiaoqiao in his arms.

This time, Gu Qiaoqiao didn’t comply. Instead, she kicked with her small feet and used a slight clever force with her hands to roll out of Qin Yize’s embrace.

Qin Yize was even faster, not giving Gu Qiaoqiao a chance to escape, and once again pinned her legs down.

The two began to play around on the sandy ground.

Here, isolated and deserted, the sun had set behind the mountains, and the two seemed to have escaped all worldly shackles, freeing themselves, their laughter utterly uninhibited.

A moment later, the sun completely set behind Helan Mountain.

A streak of light enveloped the playful couple momentarily before reluctantly fading away.

However, the sky didn’t darken; it was just after the summer solstice, and summer days in the North were very long.

They could still clearly see the scenery around them.

After playing for a while, the two lay on the beach in a large star shape, the surroundings not quiet, as insects in the grass chirped intermittently.

And on the trees across Crescent Lake, birds chirped as well...

Gu Qiaoqiao’s hearing was excellent, and she even heard the neighing of wild horses in the distance.

Gu Qiaoqiao turned her head to look and happened to meet Qin Yize’s gaze.

Their eyes met, an indescribable tenderness lingering between them.

A few breaths later, Gu Qiaoqiao laughed, softly saying, "Ah Ze, this place is wonderful, I like it here."

"Mm, I like it too." Qin Yize’s eyes were filled with indulgence, pausing before continuing, "In the future, we can build a road here to make it more convenient to come."

Build a road? 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Gu Qiaoqiao thought about it, then shook her head, "Let’s not build it yet, let it remain quiet here for a few years."

Qin Yize reconsidered and realized Qiaoqiao made a valid point.

With a road, people would travel here.

Thus, it might indeed disturb the isolated peace of this place.

Qin Yize immediately nodded, "Alright, no road."

With that, he sat up, then helped Gu Qiaoqiao up, whispering, "Qiaoqiao, let me take you to freshen up..."

Freshen up?

Gu Qiaoqiao curiously asked, "Is there a place to freshen up here?"

Surely not Crescent Lake behind them.

Qin Yize laughed understandingly, "Not here, the water temperature here isn’t suitable, it’s a bit cold..."

Oh, that’s good then.

The two stood up.

Qin Yize put on his boots, handed Gu Qiaoqiao her shoes and socks, then squatted slightly, "Qiaoqiao, you must be tired, let me give you a piggyback ride."

Gu Qiaoqiao blinked. After almost a whole day in the car, she should be tired, but she liked it here, and with her good physical condition, she didn’t really feel fatigued.

However, looking at that sturdy back, Gu Qiaoqiao put on her shoes and socks, giggling as she climbed onto his back...

Qin Yize stood firm, a satisfied smile on his lips, carrying Gu Qiaoqiao step by step towards the Mongolian Yurt.

Her soft body lay against his back, her unique fragrance instantly enveloping him, making Qin Yize feel a little distracted.

He coughed lightly a few times, suppressing his surging emotions, and made small talk, "Qiaoqiao, I feel like you’ve gotten a bit thinner?"

"How could that be?" Gu Qiaoqiao patted Qin Yize’s shoulder, "I think I’ve gained weight these days."

"I didn’t notice it."

"How could you feel it, you’re not a scale," Gu Qiaoqiao teased.

"You’re quite the witty one, leaving me speechless..." Qin Yize joked with Gu Qiaoqiao.

Hearing Qin Yize speak this way for the first time, Gu Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but laugh heartily.

The two were so close, their breaths audible, and Qin Yize’s back could feel the slight vibration of Gu Qiaoqiao’s laughter.

The vibration was not strong.

It was a gentle, trembling sensation.

Qin Yize quickened his pace, feeling like carrying Gu Qiaoqiao was like carrying a little sun, causing sweat to bead on his forehead.

Therefore, they quickly arrived in front of the Mongolian Yurt.

Qin Yize pointed inside, "Qiaoqiao, get the toiletries and pajamas, I’ll take you for a bath."

"A bath?" Gu Qiaoqiao looked around, in the night under the stars, apart from the grasslands and hills, there seemed to be nothing else.

"Mm, I’ll wait for you outside." Qin Yize said leisurely.

Gu Qiaoqiao nodded, trusting that if Qin Yize said there was a bath, there surely was, so she obediently entered the yurt. Since the curtain was open, it wasn’t dark inside.

Then, Gu Qiaoqiao noticed two candlesticks with red candles on the bedside table, and an oil lamp on the bookshelf.

There was a problem here, no electricity.

Since the former military camp had its power supply.

Gu Qiaoqiao thought of getting a diesel generator.

But the noise from a diesel generator might disturb the peace here.

Qin Yize placed Gu Qiaoqiao’s travel bag on the carpet, and Gu Qiaoqiao took out the toiletries from it, which included a plastic basket.

Packing pajamas and toiletries inside, Gu Qiaoqiao carried it out of the yurt.

Qin Yize naturally took the things from Gu Qiaoqiao’s hands, then held her hand, leading her behind the yurt.

Though it was a grassland, it wasn’t entirely flat, dotted with undulating hills, their surfaces still carpeted with tender green wild grasses, some only palm-height, some as tall as a person.

Undoubtedly, this was a place with lush pastures, suitable for raising cattle and sheep, which would thrive here.

As they walked, Qin Yize introduced the geographical layout of the area to Gu Qiaoqiao, pointing out directions, teaching her to discern north, south, east, and west, and also telling her about the mountain ranges.

Behind a patch of wild grasses, there was a shelter made of thatch, which Gu Qiaoqiao recognized as the makeshift toilet shelter Qin Yize built.

She had been there.

Despite its simplicity, being in the wilderness, it was very clean inside.

In just about three minutes, Qin Yize led Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand, crossing a small hill about half a man’s height, then stopped.

The next moment, Gu Qiaoqiao’s eyes widened with surprise,

She never expected that behind this hill was a small warm spring,

My God, how many more surprises are there she didn’t know about?

Qin Yize released Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand, and she quickly walked over to the warm spring.

This warm spring wasn’t large, with a diameter of about six meters, oval in shape.
