Chapter 157: The Deformed Shirt

“What shall we eat?” Tundun asked Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun rubbed his chin. “Let’s have hot pot. We can see how it differs from the kind we have back home, and the smell should cover up the alcohol on us. Don’t you think we reek of booze?”

“Reek? Do we?” Tundun sniffed herself.

There was indeed a faint smell of alcohol, but nowhere near as strong as Jiang Yun claimed. She looked at him in confusion.

Jiang Yun pursed his lips, somewhat speechless. “Of course you can’t tell, sis. You’re the one who drank it. Go grab some random person by the roadside and ask whether you smell strongly of alcohol.”

The viewers in the livestream agreed with Jiang Yun.

“Exactly. People with hangovers can’t smell themselves. If you can detect even a little, that means the smell on you is already pretty strong.”

“My boyfriend loves drinking too. Every time he drinks, he reeks to high heaven, but he never notices.”

“Yesterday, Tundun looked like she smelled wonderful. Today, I can practically smell her through the screen.”

“I don’t even want to imagine what Jiang Yun’s car smells like right now...”

“...”

Seeing that even the viewers agreed, Tundun could only say, “Fine. We’ll do as you say.”

Jiang Yun immediately took out his phone and searched for hot-pot restaurants nearby.

Soon, he found one with excellent ratings.

“This place looks good—almost a perfect score. It’s just not very close. Seven kilometers by car, but on foot... Huh? It’s only a little over a kilometer on foot?”

Jiang Yun stared at the route on his phone in surprise.

Tundun leaned over to take a look and said, equally surprised, “Oh, you’re right. It’s only a little over a kilometer in a straight line. We can take the lower path there. It’ll give us a chance to air out the smell.”

“Fine. Let’s walk.”

Jiang Yun nodded, then got out of the car with Tundun.

After studying the route, he pointed toward a narrow path nearby. “Looks like we take that little path. We should be there in no time.”

“Then let’s go.”

Following the route marked on the map, the two of them headed toward the hot-pot restaurant along the narrow path.

Since it was a back path, there were countless steps, making it rather inconvenient for Tundun in her high heels.

As she walked, she sighed. “There are so many stairways in Chongqing. There’s one every few steps.”

Jiang Yun laughed. “If there weren’t so many stairs, it wouldn’t be a back path. It would be a highway.”

“True enough.”

The two chatted as they continued toward their destination.

However, after more than ten minutes, they gradually realized that something was wrong.

“Wasn’t it only a little over a kilometer? Why haven’t we arrived yet? And why does this place seem to be getting more and more remote?”

Tundun looked at Jiang Yun suspiciously.

Jiang Yun was just as baffled. “This is the path, isn’t it? There haven’t been any major forks. We couldn’t have taken a wrong turn... could we?”

Hearing their conversation, many viewers in the livestream began laughing.

“Here’s a joke: outsiders come to Chongqing, look at a map, and try to take a shortcut.”

“I’ve been holding it in for so long, and now I can finally laugh. I can’t even understand that map—how could you?”

“Guess where the nickname ‘Treacherous Map’ came from.”

“Why don’t you try looking underground?”

“...”

Seeing the viewers’ comments, Tundun began to lose heart. But after climbing stairs for more than ten minutes, she was reluctant to give up.

“Maybe we’ll get there if we just keep going a little farther?”

Jiang Yun looked at the increasingly desolate path ahead. “Hmm... Maybe we will. The path looks like it’s almost at the end, after all.”

“Then shall we keep going?”

“Let’s go!”

Ten minutes later...

Staring at the dead end before them, Jiang Yun and Tundun fell silent.

“I think we took a wrong turn...”

Tundun sat down on the steps by the roadside and rubbed her feet.

Jiang Yun, however, refused to give up and looked around.

There were no other paths, and the way ahead was completely blocked.

“Actually, I wouldn’t say we took a wrong turn. The path really does end here.”

Tundun: “...”

“What do we do now?” Tundun asked helplessly.

Jiang Yun spread his hands. “Go back, I suppose. What else can we do?”

“Ugh...”

With a sigh, Tundun rose from the steps and prepared to retrace their route.

But perhaps she stood up too quickly—or perhaps for some other reason. The moment she got to her feet, she lost her balance and fell to the side.

“Ah!”

Tundun cried out.

Fortunately, Jiang Yun was close enough to catch her.

“Are you all right?” he asked as he steadied her.

Tundun glanced at the broken heel of her shoe and at her slightly swollen ankle.

“I think I twisted it.”

She pursed her lips and looked at Jiang Yun, blinking her large eyes at him.

Jiang Yun: “...”

“Can’t you walk?”

“Maybe I can try flying back.”

“You can fly?!”

“You look like you thought I could.”

Jiang Yun: “...”

After joking around for a couple of lines, Jiang Yun walked in front of Tundun and crouched down.

“Get on.”

“Thanks!”

After thanking him, Tundun took off her high heels and carried them in one hand, then happily climbed onto Jiang Yun’s back.

Jiang Yun hooked both arms beneath her thighs and carried her back the way they had come.

As he walked, he said, “Hold on tighter. Otherwise, it feels no different from carrying Old Third.”

Tundun raised an eyebrow. “You’ve touched him before? You can actually tell the difference between us?”

“Not exactly. But I’ve carried him before, and honestly, I couldn’t tell the difference.”

Hearing that, Tundun tightened one arm around Jiang Yun’s neck and held on more securely.

“Woo-hoo!”

Jiang Yun raised his eyebrows, and the corners of his mouth curled upward.

The viewers in the livestream watched the scene with bitter resentment.

“Damn it! Why couldn’t that be me?!”

“Holy crap, his shirt is practically being stretched out of shape. Jiang Yun must be enjoying this.”

“You can tell from his expression that he’s loving it.”

“Damn, this is the first time I’ve ever envied Jiang Yun.”

“...”

By then, night had fallen completely.

Just as the viewers were envying Jiang Yun, a person suddenly appeared on the deserted path and blocked his way.

The stranger wore a hat and a mask despite the sweltering heat, making it impossible to see his face.

At the same time, the path behind Jiang Yun was blocked by another person who had emerged from a small side trail.

Both were dressed alike, and Jiang Yun immediately felt that something was wrong.

At that very moment, his right eyelid twitched.

The familiar sensation made Jiang Yun say to Tundun, who was still on his back, “Get down for a moment. Your high heels are too close to me. The smell is making my eyes water.”

As he spoke, Jiang Yun lowered Tundun from his back.

Tundun still did not understand what he meant and grumbled, “What do you mean, it smells? This is perfectly normal!”

While she was complaining, the two strangers had already drawn close to Jiang Yun and Tundun...
