Mark turned off the switch on the shower head, grabbed the bath towel and dried his body, and after the warm water washed over the cold and stiff body, his muscles began to relax, and the whole person finally came to life. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

When the bathrooms were opened, the swirling heat began to stretch outward, and the cold air climbed up the arms again, and goosebumps began to bubble out. Looking at the empty bedroom, there was only infrastructure, sheets, duvet cover and two pillows, a bedside lamp, and beyond that, there was nothing. Even the express hotels are better than here and look like ...... Youth hostel.

Youth hostel.

Mark couldn't help but laugh, he never thought that one day, he would actually live in a youth hostel, this is really the first time in the world.

After a short joking, Mark began to take a serious look at the entire space, and his eyes couldn't help but light up slightly. It is undeniable that the amenities of the rooms are very simple, but the interior design is ingenious, all in wood, with pale yellow as the base tone, complementing the completely natural style décor.

The entrance hallway is made of cobblestones, the TV wall is a collage of wood panels of different shades and materials, the wardrobe is a modernist sliding wall style, and the light brown wood panels are in harmony with the interior, the small garden of the balcony is surrounded by blue hat flowers and cornflowers, and the hanging curtains are a refreshing light blue......

Every detail can be seen in the design of the intentions, simple and generous, but full of ingenuity, refreshing and pleasant, which makes people shine. There is no opulent space, no valuable accessories, no luxurious and top-notch facilities, it is like an ordinary living space, but it has a comfortable warmth and lightness.

Home, that's pretty much it.

Mark pulled the corners of his mouth at himself as the word flashed through his mind, the idea was ridiculous. But that's the way it is, and it makes him feel relaxed and safe. Compared to staying in a hotel, it added a bit of warmth.

Mark shuddered as the cold air hit, only to realize that he hadn't changed his clothes.

They didn't plan to spend the night here, so naturally they didn't carry their carry-on luggage, let alone change their clothes, and now they only have that set of soaked clothes, and it is estimated that they will not be able to dry in a short time, what should they do now?

If it is a five-star hotel, they can put on a bathrobe, and then hand over the clothes to the hotel for dry cleaning, and at the same time make a phone call, and the hotel will send special personnel to the special brand store to pick up the clothes, but in half an hour, the clean and brand new clothes will be hung in the wardrobe of the hotel room.

However, this is not a five-star hotel.

As Mark was thinking about a solution, he saw two simple clothes on the desk at the door. It was said that it was clothes, but at first glance, he swept it over, and thought it was a rag or something, so he didn't think much about it at all, and now when he looked closely, he found that it was neatly folded clothes.

He walked over, picked up his clothes and shook them, a plaid shirt and a pair of cargo pants, not the most typical denim attire, more like blue-collar overalls.

Mark laughed dumbly, he couldn't remember the last time he wore a plaid shirt, but he didn't expect that when he came to Texas this time, he actually saw the plaid shirt again.

Needless to say, Mark knew that this must have been prepared by Lu Li.

Shaking his head slightly, Mark picked up his shirt and put it on directly. It's a medium-sized shirt, not a close-fitting shirt, at least not like those tailored shirts, but it's fitting enough, and the pants are a little loose, but not falling off, and the whole thing is more suitable.

looked up and down his outfit, this casual and lazy appearance is really uncomfortable. But after the baptism of rainstorm, the cold and exhaustion have subsided, and now that I have changed into such clothes, the whole person relaxes, and the tense nerves also relax.

Surprisingly, he liked such relaxation. It's on the ranch anyway, isn't it?

Rolling up the sleeves of his shirt, Mark left the room, and there was silence in the room, and I don't know if the other people had come out.

When he got downstairs, Mark saw the cowboy hat hanging on the hanger, the huge cowboy hat, and the tassels, which were obviously worn on a holiday day, and he couldn't hold back any longer, and laughed heartily. Such a small prank, always unexpected, but full of effect.

Without hesitation, Mark put on his cowboy hat, which was waterproof, and then pushed open the door, and in the cold wind, he stepped into the rain again, and the cowboy hat kept the wind and rain out, and walked along the road just now, all the way to the main house.

He hadn't paid attention to it just now, and only then did he see the thrilling garden.

Majestic oak trees support half the sky, gardens of blue hats and cornflowers sway in the wind, the waves of blue dance like the sea, and tall beech trees surround the sides, like guards, guarding this peaceful home.

This is the second time the concept of "home" has come to his mind. Mark is not a rookie who has never seen the world, he has also visited many estates, many vineyards, many pastures, all kinds of places, but Cloud Top Ranch is so different. It's not necessarily the best, but there's always a quality.

The storm soaked the hem and pants again, but Mark didn't care. After a few more moments, he continued his journey into the main house.

Pushing open the door, the dense heat came to the face, not dry, nor surging, but a faint warmth, like the wind blowing willows, with a rich aroma of coffee, lingering under the nose, the cold hidden in the muscles suddenly disappeared, and even the footsteps couldn't help but be a little brisker.

The roaring fireplace immediately attracted the eye, the crackling sound of burning more and more set off the silence of the room, the joyful dancing flame looked like a proudly blooming sunflower, the pale yellow firelight filled the whole space, everywhere, soft and full, every object in the line of sight seemed to be covered with a shallow halo, people just want to find a place to sit down, a good relaxation.

He loved the smell of the fireplace, the dry aroma of burning firewood, which always calmed the mind and slowed down the hourglass of time. This is the perfect time to have a cup of coffee in the afternoon.

"Hey, Mark, you're the first. The voice came, Mark turned his head to look over, and then saw Lu Li sitting on the sofa.

He sat cross-legged with a laptop on his lap, slowly pulling it down, as if scrolling through the news, and a mug on the arm of the couch curled with smoke that reflected the wind and rain outside the window behind him, revealing a sense of silence and tranquility, and time seemed to slow down with the smoke.

"I just made coffee, do you need a cup?" Lu Li pointed to the coffee pot on the kitchen stove, "If you have any needs, please feel free and treat this place as your home." ”

Mark was not surprised, in a short period of time, what his eyes saw, what his ears heard, and what his body experienced, everywhere revealed the taste of home, he went straight to the kitchen, found the mug from the closet, poured a cup of coffee, and then also came to the sofa, found a place to sit down.

"Are they all right? Tell me if there's anything missing, and as the owner, I can try to find it." Lu Li put the computer next to him, he was reading sports news just now, and now that the guests are here, naturally he can't continue.

Mark took a sip of coffee, his calm expression couldn't show emotion, and he didn't know whether the coffee was good or bad, "Don't worry about them, they always procrastinate." You should be thankful that there are only showers, no bathtubs, otherwise, Robinson could have spent two hours inside. ”

Lu Li looked Mark up and down, and this Mark looked a little funny, "You...... Is it okay?

"What if you don't fit in?" Mark asked, unusually.

Lu Li was stunned, and then showed a smile, "Take your own clothes, put them in front of the fireplace, and bake them." It is estimated that it will not be long before it will dry. ”

It's not a hotel, and he doesn't make a trip to Austin to buy clothes for his guests. Not to mention that he was just entertaining friends today, even if he ran the resort later, he wouldn't. He has no plans to run a five-star hotel.

Mark touched his chin seriously, nodded, and agreed, "Don't bother, this outfit is fine." It's very comfortable to wear like this. Still, I think you'd be prepared for Robinson to make such a request. ”

"Can I refuse?" Lu Li's answer was serious, and it didn't sound like a joke.

Mark pursed his lips, "Of course." ”

Hula, the sound of oak branches beating against the windows and walls interrupted the conversation, the wind seemed to rage stronger, and the crackling of the fireplace became more and more rampant. However, in such a noisy space, the warmth of the room reveals an indescribable quietness, not panicked at all, just leisurely picking up the coffee cup, tasting the hot coffee, looking at the chaos outside the window, the whole person is at peace.

After being silent for a while, even though the two of them did not speak, there was a tacit understanding that slowly spread in the air.

"Bang", a loud popping sound of the flames broke this static state, Lu Li came back to his senses, but he didn't turn his head, and then he heard Mark's voice, "Are you going to add firewood?"

"I guess so. Lu Li said with some uncertainty, but he still stood up and walked to the fireplace, and then saw that the pyramid had collapsed, and almost half of the firewood that had been built before had been burned. So, Lu Li added three larger pieces of firewood, which seemed to be able to support it for a while.

Walked back to the sofa, "Do I need to find you a book?" The British and the Irish always like to read, right?" Lu Li asked in a friendly manner, "You can look for the bookshelf next to it, if you are interested." ”

Following Lu Li's fingers, Mark saw the bookshelves crammed with books, and his eyes lit up.
