Chapter 496: Times Square
At the end of September, New York is already feeling a little cool, and the leaves of some trees in Central Park are beginning to turn slightly yellow, and I don't know if I have already felt the change of seasons, or because the afterglow of the setting sun passes through the leaves.

"There's always something indescribably beautiful about the forest in the middle of the city, right?" said Li Xu, who was walking under the tall trees and holding Diana's hand.
"Yes, a city with such a large dense forest in the middle of the city is really ...... Very rare. Diana nodded, sighing, but still a little absent-minded.
"What's wrong?" Li Xu, who was aware of this, immediately asked.
"It's nothing, it's just ......," Diana tried to explain, but didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Worried about the Thanksgiving wedding?" Li Xu patted the back of her hand gently.
"No...... Just ......" Diana sighed.
"Honey, you know, I'd love to hear anything on your mind. Li Xu smiled and continued, "I am also willing to respect all your reasonable requests. ”
Diana relaxed with these words, and the look on her face softened: "I know, Eddie, I know...... You are always like this, patiently listening to me, patiently comforting me and encouraging me, just ...... Well, I have a bit of a premarital phobia, which I haven't felt for more than a year, but the closer I get to the date, the more ......"
"Well, it's normal, Dinah, anyone will feel fear before getting married, after all, the future is unknowable, and no one can be sure that the person in front of him will be able to accompany him for a lifetime. Li Xu made a small joke when he said this, "Speaking of this, I suddenly have a little inspiration, maybe I can ask the screenwriter to write a story based on this." ”
Diana pursed her lips, as if she was a little dissatisfied with his teasing, but a smile flashed in her gray-blue eyes.
"Of course, more importantly, I am the one who is married...... Playboy. Li Xu shrugged his shoulders at this time.
"You know that, too. Diana grunted.
"Actually, I was going to say scum. Li Xu immediately had a way.
"That's that serious!" Diana said in his immediate defense.
"Anyway, it's really my problem, and I'm not going to change it. Li Xu reached out and swept the hair on her forehead, "I'm sorry, Dinah." ”
Diana watched him fall silent, then took a deep breath: "You have also done a lot for me, Eddie, without your encouragement and support, I would not be where I am now." ”
Li Xu was about to speak, but she continued: "In the past few years, I have seen a lot and experienced a lot, as my sister said, although you are not perfect, but the others are inferior to you." At least you are willing to take care of me and support me, if I meet a man like His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, I can't think of my sister ......"
Speaking of this, she quickly closed her mouth when she realized that she was speechless, and the person became nervous again.
Li Xu smiled, didn't mention this again, and grabbed her hand again: "Okay, let's go to Times Square and have a look, it should be very lively tonight." ”
Times Square is actually a mistranslation, and the correct name should be Times Square, where the headquarters of the New York Times was originally located.
However, just like "thousands of empty alleys" and "empty wind", there are many other names, and the original name is naturally replaced, so Times Square is still Times Square, and it is blooming everywhere around the world.
"It's beautiful and gorgeous, but it's still not as good as the night view of London. After walking around with Li Xu, Diana commented quite arrogantly.
Times Square is not big, not to mention compared with Tianxmen Square, it is twice as big as the square outside the Hong Kong Lee Stage.
But it's surrounded by billboards and neon signs, but it's neatly arranged, not as complicated and messy as other cities, such as Hong Kong, but rather showing a modern urban aesthetic.
"Each place has its own characteristics, and it cannot be generalized. Li Xu smiled, and didn't let her this time.
Self-depreciation when it is time to depreciate, accommodation when it is time to accommodate, and contention when it is time to argue.
What's more, tonight's theme isn't here either.
"It's not completely dark yet, so I can't see the best in sight. He immediately said it again.
Diana really hit: "Then wait and see, it's going to be fast anyway." ”
So, after two more laps, the sun completely set, and the neon lights became brighter and brighter, colorful and dazzling.
"Well, it's a little prettier now. Diana nodded.
Although I have been to this place more than once, it is a completely different feeling to wait so patiently for the sun to set and wait for the lights to come on.
Li Xu smiled at this time, and pulled her to the middle of the fork in the road, near the building with outdoor screens - although it was not like decades later, there were outdoor screens everywhere, but there were still them.
"What's wrong?" Diana didn't understand.
Li Xu didn't speak, but as soon as he snapped his fingers, the surroundings suddenly darkened, and the neon lights that were bright just now were all extinguished with him.
Exclamations suddenly came from all directions, and at this time, there were still a lot of people in Times Square.
Then a deep commentary sounded: "She is a cute and shy girl, she is quiet most of the time, but occasionally she goes crazy and plays......"
Then, the outdoor screen in front of the triangular building at the fork in the road began to play scenes of pictures of Diana as a child, from two or three years old to her teens.
"She lives in the family house, bound by many rules and regulations, and although she accepts everything on the surface, she longs for freedom in her heart......"
Next is a video, about Diana was about fifteen years old, the resolution is not high, but you can still see that she is undergoing etiquette training, and there are also a lot of photos from that time, most of which are well-behaved.
And this time, more than one outdoor screen is playing, and an outdoor screen on the other side is also lit up and starts to play synchronously.
"She never gave up hope, she fought for herself step by step, she took care of the wounded, fought for the famine in Africa, she used her prestige to appeal, and contributed her strength to charity......"
At this time, there are more videos, Diana on the "Uganda" to rescue soldiers wounded in the Falklands war, and Audrey's campaign in Africa, as well as the successful fundraising at a charity gala, etc.
Similarly, the outdoor screen on the other side lit up and played along with the other two screens, surrounding a man and a woman in the center.
Today, she has earned herself a George Cross and is a knight canonized by the Queen of England. Then there was a young man who was now expecting her heart......"
Along with this commentary, the picture of Diana receiving the medal and being received by Elizabeth II are also presented one by one. At the same time, the neon lights around also began to light up again, slowly and rhythmically, and constantly flickering, sometimes like waves, sometimes like stars, sometimes as if clapping.
