"Just get to the point. Does attacking girls make you superior?"   "Rubbish!"   Many people are probably still wondering how the situation escalated to the point of spiraling out of control.   "What are you all doing?!" This angry shout came from Qi Lin.   He walked over from the other end side by side with Xi Siyan, and pulled the two people who were about to tear each other apart. He looked around and asked, "Have you all gone crazy? Sun Xiaoya, what's going on?"   Sun Xiaoya pointed at Chen Mo, "Can he participate?"   "I invited Chen Mo." Qi Lin frowned, puzzled. "I reported it in advance. The event expenses will be split equally, and his share will be on my tab. Does anyone have any objections?"   Some people looked at each other and lowered their heads.   Chen Mo, who was standing next to Lao Gou, asked, "Is his word really that effective?"   "He is the vice president of the club."   Chen Mo raised an eyebrow. "Oh."   At this moment, Chen Mo noticed that Xi Siyan glanced in their direction, then casually looked away. He spoke in a low voice, loud enough for everyone to hear: "Who else has something to say? If not, get on the bus. Those who caused trouble today, please register with Qi Lin. You don't need to come next time."   A group of people timidly moved towards the car.   Old Gou put his arm around Chen Mo's shoulder and walked him to the car. "No doubt about it, that's the chairman, his one-man show."   Chapter 19   Although the argument started unpleasantly, the atmosphere gradually eased after everyone got into the car.   After all, they are a group of teenagers in high school, a period of great pressure. When talking about outdoor activities, they couldn't help but feel excited and thrilled.   It takes about an hour and a half to drive to Nanshan.   The passengers were laughing and joking around; some were listening to music, while others were chatting animatedly.   Not long after getting on the bus, Qi Lin, who was sitting behind Chen Mo, patted him on the back of the seat and said, "Don't mind it. I should have notified you in the group chat beforehand that it was your first time here."   Chen Mo turned around and said, "I changed my mind at the last minute, so it's not your fault."   "Then have fun today." Qi Lin knew about his hospital visit last night. "I've done the math. At least half of the people aren't going to ride today because it's too hot. There's a newly built outdoor swimming pool at the top of the mountain, and we'll have a barbecue tonight. Just treat this as a relaxing trip."   Chen Mo asked, "Did you start from halfway up the mountain?"   "Yes." Qi Lin nodded.   At this moment, the person next to Qi Lin, who had been looking down at their phone, looked up, their eyebrows slightly furrowed, "You want to ride?"   Chen Mo shook his head, "I won't ride."   Xi Siyan glanced at him, "That would be best."   I didn't actually ride.   But after the riders changed their gear at the temporary stop halfway up the mountain and set off, they soon heard the distinctive "beep beep beep" sound of a small electric scooter coming from behind, indicating a lack of power.   The people who took the bus up the mountain have long since left.   The person who should have been in the car was now straddling an electric scooter, wearing a light blue helmet. The wind billowed his white jacket, and his long legs easily bent on the ground as he turned a corner.   At this point, the crowd wasn't so dispersed; they were basically about the same distance, one foot behind the other.   Several people recognized him.   "Damn it! What are you doing, Young Master Mo? Are you trying to stir up trouble?"   "I'm jealous. It looks so cool and refreshing. I want to ride it too."   "How on earth did you come up with this ingenious idea?"   The electric scooter ignored them and slowly overtook them. After only a couple of steps, a song started playing on the scooter.   I rode my beloved little motorcycle   I will never get stuck in traffic.   I rode my beloved little motorcycle   I'll be home soon.   ...   The group behind: "..."   "......"   "Brothers, take him down!"   He single-handedly drew all the hatred, and the group completed half the race in a time that would have been impossible in the past, all of them laughing and cursing at the same time.   During a rest stop, some people were looking around at the road ahead and behind.   "Where is Chen Mo? Did he fall behind or go to the front?"   Someone replied, "Go ahead, his two wheels are definitely faster than ours, especially uphill, he doesn't even have to exert any effort."   "I doubt whether his electricity can last all the way to the top of the mountain."   "It would be funny if they couldn't make it."   "Then what are we waiting for? Let's get up and keep going. It's our turn to go up and mock him."   ...   Despite his undiminished enthusiasm and drive, Chen Mo, who had been suspected of running out of power, indeed discovered that the car was about to run out of battery when they were almost at the top of the mountain.   Nanshan was not fully developed that year. Standing on the top of the mountain, one could occasionally see houses hidden in the mountains and forests below. The mountain road wound like a giant dragon, giving people a sense of danger.   On this treacherous road, a person got off his vehicle and slowly pushed his electric scooter.   Not long after we left, a red and black bicycle slid up behind us, making that creaking sound that comes with an emergency brake.   "Out of power?" Xi Siyan, who had one foot on the ground and lifted his sunglasses, looked at him.   Against the backdrop of the setting sun over the mountaintop, the silhouette of the person before him was bathed in a halo of light, making his features even more distinct and clear. Chen Mo was certain that he was definitely the one running in the lead.   Chen Mo glanced at the electric scooter and nodded: "Yeah, it's almost out of power."   Xi Siyan glanced at the mountaintop and asked, "Can it be pushed up there?"   Chen Mo raised his chin forward and said, "Do you expect me to do it for you if I say I can't go up?"   When the group of people caught up, they discovered that the electric scooter had indeed run out of power.   The person pushing the cart was not Chen Mo.   He switched to a familiar bicycle, while the president, who always came in first place in the competition, was pushing a small electric scooter that seemed completely out of place with him.   Everyone started complaining.   "Brother Yan, what's going on? You've done such a good deed that we don't even know where to start mocking you."   "I vaguely remember that year when I broke my leg, Brother Yan, do you remember what you said to me?"
