With one more person and one more helper, no one will object to Tang Yili anymore.
When allocating transportation, everyone found that only Xun Lang could ride a horse, so Tang Yili, James and Tom each drove a car and set off, while Xun Lang followed behind on a black Qinghai horse given by the neighbor's uncle.
Where there are roads, it is most convenient to drive without any intention, but when you cross the plantation boundary and continue walking into the hills, the advantages of riding a horse become apparent.
It can climb hills or cross the foreshore. Xun Lang on horseback chased after it.
Tang Yili drove a pickup truck and deliberately slowed down the car. When he was alongside her, he lowered the window and said with excitement: "I didn't expect it to be so exciting right away. Do you think we will meet a wolf?"
Rather than looking for sheep, Tang Yili is more like looking for wolves.
Xun Lang ignored her coldly: "No matter what happens, you are not allowed to get out of the car, do you hear me?"
Tang Yili rested his elbows on the car window and saluted coolly.
The two simply stayed together and walked along the edge of the oasis outside the highway line. There was a lake there. Out of instinct, animals would approach the water source.
They decided to go there and have a look.
As soon as they got closer, they heard what sounded like the barking of dogs. When they got a little further, Tang Yili saw two gray wolves confronting a lone sheep through the windshield.
I don’t know if the sheep was injured or something, but there was blood on it and it couldn’t get up from squatting on the ground.
The wolf was also cunning. He came up and bit the sheep's struggling front hooves and dragged her into the lake.
Tang Yili whistled hard, but it didn't seem to work. The wolf was not afraid at all and almost dragged the sheep into the water. Tang Yili was anxious when he suddenly heard two gunshots piercing the clouds.
The sharp sound resounded throughout the valley, making people's ears ring.
Tang Yili reacted for a while, then turned his head and saw Xun Lang's resolute profile and the gun barrel filled with gunpowder smoke.
He tightened his grip on the horse's belly and rode over. The two wolves quickly ran away.
The sheep didn't seem to be in good condition. Tang Yili ignored Xun Lang's warning, drove to the water's edge, opened the door, got out of the car, and walked over.
Xun Lang shouted at her: "This side is full of mudflats, don't come here."
Tang Yili stood still and asked: "How is the sheep? Was it bitten?"
Xun Lang's field boots sank to his ankles, and he dragged the sheep to the shore with all his strength, then squatted down to check it, and suddenly smiled.
Tang Yili was four or five meters away and was wondering when he suddenly saw Xun Lang holding out a small, sticky and bloody ball from under the sheep.
"She wasn't seriously injured. She looked weak just because she was giving birth to a lamb."
Xun Lang lifted the newly born lamb high. Tang Yili was overjoyed and shouted to the mother of the sheep: "Congratulations then."
The childish words made Xun Lang smile. He held the little lamb and put it in the bed of the pickup truck. Then he returned and put the big sheep into the truck without any effort.
After doing all this, he was extremely dirty.
Although it was summer at the moment, it would still take twenty minutes to drive back to the pasture. The road was windy and sandy, and the lamb might die if he didn't protect it. Xun Lang simply took off his undress and put it on the lamb.
And he himself was shirtless.
Tang Yili had stars in his eyes and asked him: "Are you feeling cold?"
Xun Lang's upper body was streamlined, he turned over neatly, and he was already on the horse.
"It's okay." He said.
The afternoon sun is getting hotter, and the clouds on the plateau seem to be within reach.
Tang Yili lowered the car window, blowing in the hot hunting wind, and looked at the man galloping in front of him. His muscular back was as broad as the mountains and seas in the world, magnificent and surging.
Her eyes were hot, and she was inexplicably grateful at this moment that she could spend this life with Xun Lang.
Back at the pasture, most of the sheep had been recovered, and everyone was surprised by the unexpected lamb.
By the time the repairs to the sheepfold were completed, it was already dark, and a bonfire was set up in the pasture to thank the neighbors who had helped.
Under the night sky, the sparsely populated plateau suddenly became lively, with people moving in and out carrying food and drinks.
The dark humor is that in order to celebrate the recovery of the lost sheep, the host decided to kill a sheep and serve it to the guests as a drink.
This made Tang Yili feel a bit dumbfounded, but she did as the Romans did, and she did not question the owner's enthusiasm, as long as the one she rescued was good.
The mother of the sheep was injured and had no milk. Tang Yili was overflowing with motherly love for a while and took the initiative to act as a temporary mother and feed milk to the lamb. The utensils were all ready-made. Tang Yili never left the lamb to serve it until James came to ask her to eat.
.
The temperature difference between day and night is large, and the temperature is still hot at noon. At night, Tang Yili already needs to wear a woolen shawl. She walked to the makeshift dining table set up in the wild, and everyone called her to take a seat.
The seat next to Xun Lang was specially reserved for her.
Tang Yili sat next to him. Xun Lang just glanced at her and then continued talking to the male host. As soon as Tang Yili picked up her chopsticks, she felt a big hand holding her free left hand under the table.
As if he was afraid that she would be cold, after holding her hand, he rubbed the back of her hand twice with his big palm.
Except for Xun Lang, no one here knew that Tang Yili was pregnant, so she didn't know if the man had some conscience and knew that he had to take care of his wife. Tang Yili felt that Xun Lang's eyes were particularly gentle tonight.
She is so gentle that everyone can see it.
After dinner, Tang Yili and James went to the house to get fruit and passed by the porch when they heard the host's two daughters say: "They are so handsome, even more handsome than the stars on TV..."
"Save it for yourself, I am a married person, no matter how handsome I am, I still have a boss..."
Eavesdropping on the corner of two young girls was really not upright, so Tang Yili pulled James and left quickly. James covered his mouth and smiled as he walked.
"Your husband is someone who doesn't talk or laugh, but when he recruits people, no woman doesn't like him, from eighty to eight years old. Tang, you have to be careful in the future."
"After all," James lifted his non-existent bangs, "A woman's youth is shorter than a man's. You will be old and yellow soon, but your husband can still be charming for decades."
"I only know one thing." Tang Yili said.
"What?"
"No one can be more coquettish than you!" Tang Yili rolled his eyes at James and walked away.
She wasn't really angry, just a little annoyed.
Nowadays, Miss Tang, as a well-known designer in the fashion industry, has many people who respect her and few people who coax her. Now her mood is rising and she urgently needs someone to coax her.
Returning to the campfire, I saw Xun Lang avoiding everyone and talking on the phone in the corner. It must be about the company. His expression was cold and hard, and his speech was not fast, but he could make people feel the pressure word for word.
Tang Yili walked over without saying a word, waited for him to hang up the phone, and asked: "The company is looking for you?"
"Well, Chen Kai called and said that the project leader in Singapore was taken away by the police for accepting bribes."
This is bad news and may mean that the trip will end early.
Maybe pregnancy makes people squeamish. As soon as the various emotions merged, Tang Yili's lips pursed.
The man who was so angry just now has lost all his aura.
Xun Lang took the person into his arms with a smile, "I promised to play with you for a week, and I will definitely keep my promise."
Tang Yili: "What about your person in charge?"
"If you have done it, then he deserves it. Don't expect me to save him. If you haven't done it..." Xun Lang showed a rogue smile, "Then I can only force him to wait for me inside for a week."
Tang Yili opened her mouth slightly, not believing that this was what Xun Lang would say, but then she wanted to laugh again. At the same time, she silently said sorry to the person in charge in her heart.
She hid behind Xun Lang and snickered. The firelight made her face bright and rosy, and there was a glimmer of water on her lips, making people want to swallow her whole.
Xun Lang looked at her for a long time, until Tang Yili felt embarrassed and squeezed the hard muscles of his arm.
"Have you seen enough? Now go eat some fruit!"
Tang Yili turned around and was about to leave, but Xun Lang pulled him back.
"Wait a moment."
"What?" Tang Yili was a little confused. He watched Xun Lang take out something from the pocket of his casual pants, and then his eyes slowly widened, "This is not..."
"The one." Xun Lang said, "This diamond is called the one, which means the only one, the one I love, the one I have been pursuing all my life."
"Are you talking about this diamond?"
"I'm talking about you."
Tang Yili's heart trembled slightly.
Xun Lang smiled softly and took Tang Yili's hand.
In the past half month, Xun Lang has asked the craftsmen to expedite setting and make this antique diamond into a ring.
The silver ring passes through the slender fingers and fits precisely on the ring finger. The wind is blowing on the plateau, the moon is bright and the stars are sparse. The plain white hand seems to be wearing a fallen star.
"It's so beautiful." Tang Yili said.
Xun Lang nodded and smiled: "Same as you."
It came from the stars and has stayed in the world ever since.
