After a few casual words with Li Yina, Li Xiaodong went back to his room, rummaged things in his bag, and made a little preparation for use at night.

He didn't stay by Li Yina's side, although Li Yina was very unhappy, but she also knew that she had no way to take him.

"What's the matter, this guy is going to go it alone again?"

Lin Can, Jin Zhixuan, and Shigeru Watanabe had already put on their backpacks and were ready to camp at night, and when they came to Li Yina's side, they all saw that Li Xiaodong was in a hurry, and it seemed that he was going to leave Li Yina out again.

"Forget it, leave him alone, we treat him as a collective, but he doesn't treat us as a collective at all, Miss Ina, don't be accommodating to this kind of person, the more polite you are to him, the more rude he is to you, I suggest you get rid of him as soon as possible, and change to someone who follows you......"

Shigeru Watanabe looked at Li Xiaodong's open room, and while expressing his opinions, he urged Li Yina to leave him and go out, in fact, in Watanabe Shigeru's opinion, the more dissatisfied Li Xiaodong became, the more beneficial it was to himself, and he faintly had a feeling that Li Xiaodong might be his rival in love, and Li Yina had that kind of feeling for him.

"Okay, let's go......" Li Yina replied casually, after all, she had packed her bags and planned to go out for a hot spring camping with a few of them.

Although she didn't have Li Xiaodong by her side, her interest in going out to play was not very strong, but as a polite woman, she couldn't live up to the kindness of Jin Zhixuan, Watanabe Shigeru and Lin Can, after all, everyone is a friend, and everyone's play has been delayed in the morning, and now it can't be repeated.

Just as they were about to go out, a once-in-a-lifetime incident happened.

Before Li Yina and the others reached the door, the ground suddenly shook, and several people suddenly felt that it was difficult to stand firm under their feet, Li Yina even had to hold on to the door frame, only to see the room of the villa creaking, the chandelier swaying from side to side, the cup on the coffee table crackling and falling to the ground, and all the lights appeared to flicker and dim due to the unstable current.

"Oh no, earthquake! We have an earthquake......"

Almost at the same time as he shouted, panicked screams rang out from all over the villa hotel, and people began to panic, some people rushed out of the house with children, and some jumped off the terrace of the villa with bath towels rolled...... Crowds poured out from all directions, gathering blindly and chaotically, and in just a short time, the square of the hotel was filled with people, and everyone had a kind of apocalyptic horror.

"Li Yina, don't stand under the tree, stay away......"

Seeing Li Yina holding on to a big tree in a panic, Li Xiaodong quickly rushed over, took her in his arms, and escorted her to the lawn clearing.

In this tense and panicked moment, Li Yina was slammed into his arms, and unconsciously, she gave birth to a warm and down-to-earth feeling.

On this day, in this bloody sunset, an earthquake that did not feel so real suddenly occurred in the southeast of Kyoto.

"Ladies and gentlemen, please do not panic, please maintain order, according to urgent news reports, the earthquake just now occurred in Koba Town, 30 kilometers southeast of Kyoto, and the impact on the Kyoto area is limited, and we only feel the tremors affected by the earthquake......"

Hearing someone on the loudspeaker of the hotel report the emergency, the panicked crowd gradually settled down, and began to talk to each other again, and then it didn't take long for the terrifying earth shaking to gradually become stable, and everything seemed to be back to normal, and the world became calm and normal.

"It's too scary, it's too scary, this is the first time I've encountered an earthquake in my life......" Lin Can had already come to Li Yina's side, still looking around with a pale face.

"It's also my first time ......"

Li Yina was quite calm, and between speaking, she looked at Li Xiaodong's face beside her, and she was still reminiscing about the feeling of being held in his arms just now.

In Li Xiaodong's life, this kind of thing is also the first time to encounter, but compared with the collapse of the mountain and the subsidence of the earth encountered in the ancient tombs, such a scene is not dangerous at all, and it cannot even be regarded as thrilling, he has no superfluous words and deeds, and his mood has always been relatively stable.

"Li Yina, Lin Can, how are you?" Watanabe Shigeru and Jin Zhixuan hurried over.

After confirming that everyone was okay, Shigeru Watanabe said solemnly: "Earthquakes often do not happen alone, and there may be aftershocks, although the intensity of the earthquake felt here is not very large, but it cannot be ruled out that it will happen again, so don't sleep in your room tonight, you should be stationed in an open area." ”

He concluded by emphasizing: "I have experience, and this is the third time I have encountered an earthquake. ”

Everyone nodded their heads in obedience to his arrangement.

Li Yina gently pulled Li Xiaodong and asked, "It may not be safe tonight, do you still want to go out?"

Li Xiaodong raised his hand and looked at his watch, but did not answer.

He looked in the direction of the Kyoto Imperial Palace, thinking to himself, and he didn't know what impact this sudden earthquake would have on that sacred mountain.

Perhaps because they had experienced an event that was barely called a "disaster" together, Li Yina seemed to be much weaker, and unconsciously developed a sense of dependence on him.

She followed Li Xiaodong's side and never left half a step, hoping that Li Xiaodong would not go out tonight, just stay in the hotel and be with everyone.

Li Xiaodong handed her a bottle of mineral water and smiled: "There is no way, my business is very important and must be done." I know you've had a lot of fun these two days, and when I'm done with this, I'll take time out to play with you for a few days. ”

"For your own safety, don't go to the active volcanic hot springs, it's better to be conservative and camp on the lawn of the hotel. Good bye. ”

After saying that, he turned around and hurried away, and the time he agreed to meet Yusuke Yamamoto was almost there. Tonight, he had to go to the Sacred Mountain of the Imperial Palace again to get the Spirit Tortoise Grass he wanted.

Li Yina looked at his back as he walked away, her face flushed inexplicably, when Li Xiaodong said those words to her just now, she wanted to express her protest, such as telling him, "I don't need you to travel with me," or "I didn't say I need you to accompany me" or something like that, in short, she wanted to express a kind of "our relationship is not very close", but, inexplicably, she couldn't say what she wanted to say.

The first time she heard Li Xiaodong say this kind of thing to her, she was a little happy and a little shy.
