Zombie Bodyguard-Chapter 1640 - 1637: Setting Up Camp

"Lin Tian, that move of yours was pretty wicked, but it’s really satisfying," said Mu Binglan, who unusually agreed with Lin Tian.

"Driving a convertible sports car and acting all arrogant, just teaching them a lesson," Lin Tian replied casually, not thinking he’d done anything significant. If it were a big deal, he’d have dismantled the Ferrari long ago.

He could crush the Ferrari with one slap.

Zhao Weitao hung back, not daring to charge forward again. He’s never felt such frustration while driving a sports car.

The further they drove, the worse the road conditions became. The car’s suspension system didn’t disappoint Lin Tian, filtering out a lot of vibrations, making it not too uncomfortable for the passengers inside.

"Mr. Lin, road conditions are getting worse. Should we raise the car’s chassis?" asked Little Ya. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Lin Tian was slightly taken aback, surprised. "This car can raise its chassis?"

"Of course, when the engineers designed me, they considered the chassis’ passability. Keeping it low normally enhances handling performance. When roads are rough, you can raise it for higher ground clearance," Little Ya confirmed.

"Alright, raise the chassis," Lin Tian ordered.

The car trembled slightly as Lin Tian felt it lift gently, just in time to smoothly get over a large bump ahead.

"That Ferrari behind us is in for trouble, right? With that low chassis, it could get stuck at any time," Qiao Xiaoyi commented, looking at the deteriorating road conditions ahead.

"Not necessarily. Since Zhao Weitao dared to drive a Ferrari out here, his car probably also has a chassis lifting system." Lin Tian didn’t know what model he was driving, but he knew Zhao Weitao wouldn’t be foolish enough to bring a sports car without a lifting system into the wild.

There are always some keyboard warriors online who can’t afford sports cars but mock domestic sports car owners, saying the cars with such low chassis can’t even get out of big cities. Many sports cars now come with a chassis lifting system.

Qiao Xiaoyi glanced in the rearview mirror and saw that the Ferrari’s ground clearance had indeed increased, allowing it to pass the bumps on the road without getting stuck.

The two cars continued driving, and after a stretch of muddy road, they finally stopped at the foot of a mountain.

Lin Tian turned off the engine and got out, turning back to see Zhao Weitao’s car had stopped not far away. The four people in the car had already gotten out, and the two women were bending down to take off their high heels and put on hiking boots. The two women were wearing ultra-short skirts, and bending over like that almost revealed their safety shorts.

Zhao Weitao also noticed Lin Tian looking over but didn’t remind the women to avoid being exposed. Lin Tian didn’t shy away but smiled calmly and turned to the trunk to start unloading things.

Liu Yuansi patted Xiao Na next to him and whispered, "Get up, your beauty trap didn’t work."

The two women stood up and looked towards Lin Tian, realizing he hadn’t even glanced at them.

Zhao Weitao snorted and laughed coldly, "Did you think using your beauty trap against Lin Tian would work? I’ve told you it wouldn’t succeed. With beauties like Xiao Manxuan around him all the time, do you think he’d be interested in you?"

Xiao Na and Xiao Ya reluctantly glanced at Xiao Manxuan, who was busy helping Lin Tian move things. Her tall and exquisite figure, stunning looks, and skin like mutton fat jade left them completely outshined—be it in terms of bust, legs, looks, skin tone, or aura.

"Hmph..." The two women snorted a few times, unwilling to accept it but with nothing to refute.

Liu Yuansi laughed, "You two should just get over it. As long as Brother Zhao beats Lin Tian and manages to win over Mr. Xiao, that’d vent some of your anger."

"Brother Zhao, when we go rock climbing later, you have to crush his spirits and humiliate him for making us eat dirt. We’ve never been treated like this before," said the two women angrily.

"Your parents are celebrities, always in the spotlight and living the high life. Naturally, you’ve never faced such treatment. When he embarrasses himself while climbing, you can shame him however you like," Zhao Weitao replied with a sinister smile.

"Thank you, Brother Zhao." The two women started acting coy again.

"Stop laughing and find a place to settle down first," Zhao Weitao remained unfazed, starting to unload things from the car.

Lin Tian’s group had already unloaded everything. He carried the heaviest two bags, while everyone else took some of the lighter items, and they continued into the mountain.

Although it was at the mountain’s base, most of the ground was weathered rock with not much wild grass. As long as you watch your step, the path wasn’t too hard to traverse.

After walking for over ten minutes, they began to hear the faint sound of water, which excited the girls, who started running forward.

To everyone’s surprise, Xiao Manxuan, despite being a typical girl, wasn’t any slower than Mu Binglan when she ran. She agilely leaped over large rocks, her nimble figure astonishing Mu Binglan.

In contrast, the two celebrity offspring at the back were struggling, leaving not just Lin Tian but even Zhao Weitao and Liu Yuansi looking embarrassed.

"There’s a small stream here!" Xiao Manxuan waved to Lin Tian, shouting excitedly. The little girl, who previously spent most of her time cooped up at home, was experiencing nature in such proximity for the first time. No wonder she was so thrilled, like a bird freed from its cage.

Lin Tian surveyed the surrounding area, pointing to a dry, flat grassy spot, saying, "I’ll set up the camp over there."

Clearing, staking, and lining up, everyone worked together to set up the tents. It took over an hour to get the two large tents erected.

Of course, Lin Tian couldn’t share a tent with Xiao Manxuan, and the little girl couldn’t possibly bunk with him in front of other classmates.

Lin Tian and Qiao Xiaoyi shared one tent while the remaining tent was naturally for Xiao Manxuan and the two other girls.

"Xiaoyi, come over and sprinkle these insect and snake repellent medicines around the tents," Mu Binglan called out to Qiao Xiaoyi, handing him a bottle.

Qiao Xiaoyi, likely having his first close interaction with Mu Binglan, blushed as he took the bottle.

Surprisingly, Mu Binglan didn’t put up her usual tough demeanor but instead complimented him, "Your outdoor survival skills aren’t bad; setting up a tent is pretty neat."

With that praise, Qiao Xiaoyi blushed even more, unsure of what to say, and remained in a daze until Mu Binglan walked elsewhere. Lin Tian shook his head, thinking, does this guy have a blushing problem with girls, missing such a good opportunity?

Lin Tian sighed and thought, let me give you a hand then. With that in mind, he approached Qiao Xiaoyi and took the repellent. "I’ll handle the repellent. You and Mu Binglan go collect dry wood for a fire."

Qiao Xiaoyi finally snapped out of it, stammering a couple of agreements before rushing to catch up.

"You’re helping to bring others together," Xiao Manxuan said, walking up with a smile.

"How about we spread the repellent together?" Lin Tian grinned, playfully teasing.

"Hmph, who wants to do that with you? I’m going to the river with Sister Xiaofei to catch fish," the little girl’s face reddened as she turned and ran off.

Lin Tian sighed internally, wondering who he’d offended, inadvertently becoming the lone person left out while helping others.

"Lin Tian, with nobody paying attention to you now, are you interested in joining me to find the rock climbing spot?" Zhao Weitao’s voice came from behind.
