Chapter 499: Chapter 499 Disdain Chapter 499: Chapter 499 Disdain Qin Yize wiped his general’s knife clean and then placed it back into the scabbard on his belt.

After that, Qin Yize took the basket and, holding Gu Qiaoqiao’s hand, walked towards the outside.

There were no paths in the deep valley, and furthermore, the brush was too thick, making Gu Qiaoqiao reluctant to go any further.

Moreover, the terrain in Diannan was too complicated. If there had been any dangerous snakes or fierce beasts inside, it would have been bad.

Qin Yize prioritized Gu Qiaochao’s wishes; if she wanted to see, he would clear the way for her, if she did not, he would take her back.

In short, as long as Gu Qiaoqiao was happy during these two hours, that was all that mattered.

By the time the two returned to the camp, the staff responsible for data collection and exploration had already regrouped, and many were surprised to see the couple coming back from the deep valley.

Especially the charming and beautiful young girl.

Her eyes were truly beautiful, seeming to be filled with sunshine.

So this was Doctor Qin’s young wife.

No wonder.

Normally, Qin Yize was extremely stern, but today his expressions were much softer.

If it was someone else’s wife, their teammates would probably have already gathered around to tease them.

After all, it was their rest time.

However, since it was Qin Yize, they were much more subdued.

But Qin Yize actually was somewhat hopeful that the young guys would come over and call her “sister-in-law” today.

Unfortunately, these idiots did not come over at all.

Qin Yize felt slightly displeased, his sharp gaze darting over, and not only did they not come over, but they also quickly dispersed.

Some were cleaning the mud from their shoes, others were checking for insect bites.

And some went to the riverbank to help with the logistics team in cleaning the fish.

Fish stewed in a big iron pot, served with big white steamed buns, was indescribably delicious.

Seeing that no one grasped his intentions, Qin Yize was somewhat frustrated.

He thought to himself that he might go for a few more rounds after dinner.

At that moment, Luh Fei also came over, smiling, and said, “Sister-in-law, you should eat here. Tonight, we’re stewing fish in the big iron pot, it’s very delicious…”

“No thanks, I still need to go back and pack my luggage,” Gu Qiaoqiao replied with a smile, declining the offer.

Since Qin Yize hadn’t spoken up, it probably wasn’t convenient.

Qin Yize smiled.

Gu Qiaoqiao took the basket and got into the vehicle while Qin Yize stood there, waved his hand, and watched as the jeep drove out of his sight.

Soon after, a few teammates ran over, curiously asking, “Doctor Qin, that was sister-in-law, right?”

“Yes,” Qin Yize nodded and turned to instruct, “Next time you see her, remember to come over and greet her…”

Uh…

A few people looked at each other.

What does that mean?

Meanwhile, Qin Yize had already walked briskly toward his tent.

And sitting in the vehicle, Gu Qiaoqiao finally understood what Qin Yize meant when he said “It’s still a bit small.”

She couldn’t have guessed wrong.

That guy must be complaining about her being too young for that, huh…

Gu Qiaoqiao’s face flared up with embarrassment.

Then she quickly looked down to cover it up and started examining the orchid.

She sniffed it; it was very fragrant.

Refreshing and seemingly had the power to calm the mind.

Gu Qiaoqiao felt a bit more at peace.

Soon, they arrived at the inn in the town.

Gu Qiaoqiao got out of the car, told Luh Fei to drive slowly, and Luh Fei nodded with a smile before driving off.

Currently, Uncle Gu and the others were staying here.

The conditions were very basic, but Uncle Gu had arranged it all.

They had switched to clean sheets, quilts, and accessories.

It was fine for them, but since Gu Qiaoqiao was a girl, she always needed to stay in a clean place.

Besides, they would not be staying many days before setting off.
