Chapter 472 Competition
"I don't think so, I'm just reminding you."
Ayan's answer seemed to carry a vague note of caution.
Still, the atmosphere gradually became gloomy.
Camille is silent.
Such an atmosphere let Ayan knew that if he continued to talk about it would probably argue again, so
he simply changed the subject directly: "You take care of yourself, let Kian do anything, be safe, Timmy
is very good and well-behaved, don't worry."
His words made Camille ponder; his attitude seemed to have become a little different from what it used
to be.
But exactly what is different she could not say?
Ayan's attitude made Camille's heart ripple, she sighed silently and rolled over before drifting off to
sleep.
It was noon when Camille woke up, and it was drizzling outside.
This weather seems especially good for sleeping and making people feel comfortable.
Camille's ant bites have been treated with allergy medicine and the herbs given by the village doctor,
and although they still itch, the swelling has subsided and is not as difficult as it was at the beginning.
A day passed, and everyone was almost rested, and the work progress was reopened the next day.
Today's departure is Camille and Cora and Kian and Jeremiah, as for Dan he is also responsible for the
local air quality and other issues of the investigation, so it can not go with them together.
Today they have to visit the village to go over the school behind this half mountain, the road is not
particularly far, estimated to have a dozen kilometers, but because of yesterday's rain some slippery
road, and is a mountain road, walking up very hard and time.
But fortunately everything went well, and on the return trip the township chief asked, "Would you like to
see our side of the mountain spring?"
No one had any problems, so the village chief took the four people along the small stone road to the
foot of the mountain and found a mountain spring mouth, and the village chief said, "Don't see only
such a small point, all the villages below our mountain are eating this water."
"Is this enough to eat?" Kian couldn't help but wonder.
The township chief smiled: "Still can't eat it all, there is a well below, this water will flow along these
stone cracks to the well for preservation, in addition to here we have quite a few mountain spring
mouths in this township."
When he said this, the township chief showed pride and proud attitude.
The water can be consumed directly, cold and sweet, and seems cleaner than tap water or purified
water.
After that, the village chief asked: "Do you want to go to experience our side of the mushroom
collection? In front is the pine forest, yesterday it rained, today there must be a lot of mushrooms to
pick up, you have not experienced, if interested can try!"
The four men looked at each other.
Kian looked to the two girls and asked, "What are Miss Armstrong's and Manager Hayes' opinions?"
Cora said, "I can do it all."
Camille said, "Then let's try it together!"
She was quite interested and was eager to experience that harvest feeling.
The two girls were fine with it, and Kian and Jeremiah naturally had no problem with it.
The four followed the township chief to the pine forest, dense pine trees as only in martial arts
blockbusters would appear.
The village chief casually picked up a few edible mushrooms and raised them toward everyone: "Look,
these are the most delicious varieties, so we can add to everyone's meal tonight."
Jeremiah asked a little uneasily, "Countryman, are you sure it's okay to eat? I'm afraid of seeing the
villain!"
The township chief smiled, "Guaranteed to be able to, don't worry."
The village chief briefly taught everyone to identify several kinds of edible mushrooms that were more
numerous and easy to recognize, and then Cora proposed, "Let's divide and conquer, let's compete
with the village chief to see who picks up the most, okay?"
"How do you compare?"
Kian asked.
Cora said: "I and Miss Armstrong group, we are girls, Mr. Reid and Jeremiah group, the village chief is
a master on his own group, so we can also be divided into a first and second runner-up!"
Jeremiah said, "Yes, that's what Manager Hayes wants."
Cora looked to Camille, who hadn't spoken, "Miss Armstrong what do you think?"
"I have no problem with that." novelbin
Camille faintly glanced at Cora, just pick up a mushroom, with whom a group does not matter.
Cora clapped her hands and smiled lightly, "Then let's get started!"
Cora set a half hour to finish the game and meet at the present location after half an hour.
After the official start, the village chief immediately headed forward, with Jeremiah and Kian following
close behind.
As Cora watched the three men drifting away, she asked Camille, "Shall we go this way?"
She pointed ahead to the left, and Camille had no comment, then followed her toward that side.
The two picked up together at first, but gradually Cora went farther away, Camille hesitated, and for
safety, she reminded in a light voice: "Manager Hayes we better not be too far apart."
"It's okay, we're definitely the fastest to turn back anyway. "Cora laughed lightly.
When she said that, Camille naturally said no more.
But then Cora's voice suddenly rang out again and she asked, "Camille, you don't really want to spend
time with me, do you?"
"Manager Hayes, you misunderstand."
Camille replied mildly.
Just picking up a mushroom is the same as anyone.
But Cora pursed her lips and smiled with bitterness in her eyes as she said, "I didn't misunderstand
because you didn't want to talk to me at all, I know you did because you minded that I had been with
him, right?"
This time Camille is completely stunned.
She paused to pick up the mushrooms, raised her eyes and stared at Cora lightly, then told her
seriously: "Manager Hayes, this has nothing to do with work so I do not want to answer, but since your
words have been asked, then I think it is necessary to respond positively, I do not want to ignore you,
as for the things you said are things that have been in the past, so it is not relevant to us at the
moment. So it has nothing to do with us at the moment, what do you think?"
Cora expected Camille to reply that she minded, but to her surprise, Camille simply said that it was
past and irrelevant now.
This is certainly a reminder to Cora that things between her and Ayan are well and truly behind her.
Ayan's present and future have nothing to do with her.
Yeah, nothing to do with her, she already knew that.
But she still felt some inexplicable panic when she was reminded of it again in such a positive and
direct way.
She just looked deeply at Camille who no longer paid attention to her seriously picking up the
mushrooms, she just smiled lightly and then also did not continue the topic.
Because of their conversation, Cora gradually walked away and distanced herself from Camille.
Camille looked at her several times and actually wanted to speak up and remind her not to go far, but
she held her tongue.
But what Camille did not expect was that Cora would be gone by the time she looked down to pick up a
few more mushrooms.
She shouted twice with an expressionless face, "Manager Hayes? Manager Hayes?"
But there was no response.
The phone in his pocket also rang at this time, a half-hour alarm reminder.
Camille narrowed her eyes slightly as she swept around, because there was no signal here, so it was
impossible to make a call to anyone else.
Camille hesitated, then turned around and turned around.
The other three had arrived by the time she walked back to her original spot.
The mayor was all smiles as he took credit: "Miss Armstrong, it looks like I won!"
Camille smiled lightly before she could speak and was interrupted by Jeremiah: "Miss Armstrong, why
isn't Manager Hayes with you?"
