Chapter 487: 302, Sister Ye’s love, please accept it!
The subordinates were quick and efficient, and in the blink of an eye, they had set up dozens of tents with pointed tops around the work tent.
Camouflage pattern.
They didn’t set up too many tents, partly because there was a limited area for a secure and sturdy rest, and partly because the subordinates were on a shift system, with half resting while the other half continued to work in the mine.
Xia Ye’s tent was set up on the far left.
Xia Xian built it himself.
In the Southern Boundary, the temperature varied greatly between day and night, and by this time, Xia Xian had already changed back into a shirt. Despite being a simple tent, the assembly required various heavy steel materials and needed to ensure balance and stability, demanding considerable strength.
The shirt was form-fitting, highlighting a physique that was robust and pleasing to the eye, especially when slightly sweaty under the lights, his wheat-colored skin gleaming.
That normally devilish-looking Third Brother, Xia Ye, seemed particularly masculine at this moment.
However, seeing Third Brother’s muscles bulging as he worked on the tent, Xia Ye really wanted to reach out and help. Yet, before she could speak, Xia Xian would chauvinistically respond, "Stay back, the frame isn’t secure yet, be careful not to get hurt. Leave the heavy lifting to Third Brother in the future!"
As he spoke, he gave her an eyebrow raise, trying his best to show off his charm as an older brother.
Something other men couldn’t match.
The steel bars used in these outdoor tents were very heavy; usually, it took two or three big men to set one up together. The fact that Xia Xian could do it alone was truly impressive.
But what he didn’t know was that if he had let his Little Tiangao set up the tent, she would have probably finished three by now.
If Jiang Xuan were to handle it... he might accidentally break a steel bar.
To preserve Third Brother’s pride, Xia Ye tactfully stayed aside and patiently waited for him to finish.
The forest night was exceptionally quiet, occasionally pierced by the howl of a wild wolf.
The laughter of the men returning from the mine added warm hues to the forest.
The noise in the rest area gradually decreased as time passed, and soon several spotlights went out, and everyone began to retreat to their tents for rest.
Xia Xian had to keep an eye on the mine later that night, but for some reason, before leaving, he uneasily crossed over to the other end of the rest area.
He arranged Jiang Xuan’s tent at the far right, the furthest from Little Tiangao!
The implication was quite clear.
The light was still on in the tent, and Xia Xian lingered nearby, casting a few discreet glances in that direction.
In the glow of the tent, he could see the figure of a man arranging things inside.
It seemed that Jiang Xuan was staying inside his own tent, and Xia Xian was relieved.
The man walked briskly towards the mine, while on the walkie-talkie, he inquired about the progress of the probe. His gaze returned to Jiang Xuan’s tent, where a border man of similar height to Jiang Xuan was shivering and covering himself with a blanket...
Jiang Xuan had just told him that if he could spend one night in his tent, their company could renew its collaboration with his boss unconditionally next year.
The border man had agreed gritting his teeth, not taking even a second to think it over.
He understood what Jiang Xuan meant, but not completely.
He thought he was sacrificing himself for the boss by spending a night in Jiang Xuan’s tent...
Sleeping in Jiang Xuan’s tent with Jiang Xuan for one night...
Oh, how nerve-racking!
That man from China seemed very strong; he wondered if he would be allowed on top!
However, the man, like an ancient palace maid preparing for bed, wrapped himself in the blanket and after a long wait, Jiang Xuan was nowhere in sight.
It was only after ten minutes that the man excitedly... fell asleep in the blanket.
With the palpitations of a young girl’s first love, his snoring echoed through the heavens!
Jiang Xuan was also in a tent at that moment, but not in his own.
The girl’s tent was larger than the others, and to increase privacy, the rain cover was also light-blocking, so even with the light on inside, no one outside could see anything.
Jiang Xuan checked the connections between the tent’s steel bars, ensuring everything was correctly installed, then gently swiped his hand over the pile of bedding next to it.
The brand-new bedding unfolded itself neatly on the mat.
The little nest with pink small granny flowers was ready; tonight, he could tuck his ’little niece’ into bed again.
Xia Ye had gone to the creek to wash up, and Jiang Xuan wasn’t in a hurry, got into bed, and dug out an adult bedtime book from somewhere.
"Straight Guy’s Guide to Romance"
Shen Jing had given him this book two months ago, and when he first received it, Jiang Xuan, aka Long Aotian, had thrown it in the trash right in front of Shen Jing.
He wasn’t straight.
