Ms. Zhu and her male friend, Ah Qiang (not her real name), plan to go on a hiking trip. Despite being new acquaintances, the two seem to hit it off. "When I set off, my husband also told me to wear more clothes, it was cold in the mountains.
I said yes, but in my heart I thought, what are you afraid of with Ah Qiang?" When Ms. Zhu later mentioned the experience, her tone was full of regret.

The process of going up the mountain was smooth, and there was laughter and laughter all the way. But on the way down the mountain, due to the complicated terrain, the two accidentally lost their way. To make matters worse, the phone has long since run out of battery during the long trek. In desperation, they could only wait for rescue.
At the same time, Mr. Zhu at home was restless. The wife had promised to come home at noon, but there was no one until the afternoon. Calls were dialed again and again, but no one answered.
Only then did Mr. Zhu realize that something was wrong. He immediately filed a police report and asked for help finding his wife. "She's never lost contact like this, something must have happened!" Mr. Zhu's voice was filled with deep concern.
The news spread quickly and sparked heated discussions on social platforms.
"Isn't it obvious that a married woman is dating a male netizen?"
"It's too imprudent for two people to go climbing the mountain after knowing each other for a long time. "
"Maybe people just eloped, and my husband was stupid enough to call the police. "
For a time, speculation on the Internet was overwhelming.
In fact, similar incidents of getting lost in the wilderness are not uncommon. According to the China Mountaineering Association, in 2020 alone, there were 1,865 accidents involving nearly 3,000 people across the country. Most of the reasons for this are due to lack of preparation and experience.
The American magazine "Backpacker" has summarized several main reasons for getting lost in the wild: misestimating the terrain, not carrying a compass and other positioning tools, not planning the route in advance, and ignoring weather changes...... All these are the "culprits" that lead to getting lost.
In contrast, Ms. Zhu and Ah Qiang's loss is more like a kind of "lost". In the final analysis, it is the triumph of rashness and selfish desires over reason that leads to great mistakes.
After 48 hours, the two were finally found by search and rescue teams. Although hungry and cold, it was fine. But what awaits them is not just the complaints of relatives and friends?
From a legal point of view, those who get lost as a result of entering the wild without authorization and need to use public resources to carry out rescue shall bear corresponding civil liability. This is already a waste of public resources.
From a moral point of view, marriage and family are the foundation of society, and husbands and wives should respect and love each other and be loyal. Going out privately with friends of the opposite sex will inevitably cause criticism and suspicion, which will damage the stability of the marriage.
Of course, we can't knock over a boatload of people with a single stroke. In today's society, it is common for couples to have their own circle of friends. The key is to grasp the proportion, not to exceed the rules, not to cross the line, so as not to hurt each other's feelings.
It is easy to get out of the mountains and wilderness, and it is difficult to recover the emotional loss.
For Ms. Zhu and Ah Qiang, this "adventure" is not only a test of survival ability in the wild, but also a test of marital fidelity. Fortunately, they woke up in time and did not cause an irreparable tragedy.
Talking about this experience, Ms. Zhu was full of emotion: "I finally understood how important my husband was to me. He gave me a home, a haven from the elements. And I, I almost lost it all. "
The mountain wind is bleak, but it can't blow away their love.
After this battle, the relationship between the two became stronger. They decided to go on a "restart" trip to see the landscapes they had longed for but missed. Only this time, they walked hand in hand and never separated.
This may be the true meaning of marriage. Even if you fall, even if you get lost, as long as your heart desires, you will eventually find your way home.
