Chapter 24: To Yalta
"Thank you, I wouldn't have been able to get out if it wasn't for you just now. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "The beautiful woman in front of her speaks fluent English. "Elise? Clark, a student at Kyiv University. ”
"My name is Ye Chen, Chinese, but I work in the UK. Are you a student at Kyiv University? Ye Chen was pleasantly surprised, "I just want to visit Kyiv University, can you take me to see it?" You know that many of us Chinese come here to study. ”
Elise, of course, knew that there were many Chinese coming to Ukraine, "Okay, then you come in with me." ”
Ye Chen secretly boasted to himself, and then followed Elise with a stack of books.
"Elise, what are you majoring in?" Ye Chen took the initiative to chat.
"I studied law, and I stayed in school because I was about to apply for graduate school."
"Oh, no wonder you were so calm to judge that I was overly defensive." Ye Chen said jokingly.
"Hehe, sorry, get used to it. Thank you anyway, though. Elise was a little embarrassed, too.
"It's okay, it's a bit rude to use force in front of a lady." Ye Chen turned his face sideways and explained to Elise. "Elise, can I take a picture with you?"
"Of course, to thank you." Elise smiled and agreed.
"Oh yes, that's great." After Ye Chen finished speaking, he ran to the front and visited the camera.
Elise looked at Ye Chen, who was jumping and jumping in front of her to put the camera in front, and suddenly felt that this person who looked like a big boy was very interesting.
After Ye Chen set the time for taking pictures, he hurriedly ran back, stood next to Elise, and approached her a little nervously.
After helping Elise put the books in the library, Elise took Ye Chen to visit Kyiv University again, although she had already turned around, Ye Chen pretended to be fresh and went around again. Probably because there was a beautiful tour guide by his side, Ye Chen felt that this tour was more interesting.
In order to express his gratitude, Ye Chen invited Elise to lunch, and Elise finally agreed under Ye Chen's heartfelt invitation.
"Elise, do you have time these days? I want to ask you to be my tour guide, you know I like the Ukrainian scenery very much," Ye Chen extended an invitation to Elise when lunch was almost underway. "If you don't have time, forget it, well~~ Thank you, it doesn't matter, I can do it alone."
Looking at Ye Chen's nervous self-questioning and answering in front of her, Elise felt very interesting.
"I'm going to Yalta tomorrow, where I'll rest for a while, and if you want, we can go there together."
"Well, no problem, I was just thinking about going to Yalta." Ye Chen was very pleasantly surprised. "Okay, I'll be here on time tomorrow."
After exchanging contact information with Elise, Ye Chen drove back to the hotel with a happy face.
"Big brother, I'll go to Yalta tomorrow to play, you can arrange it yourself." As soon as he arrived at the hotel, Ye Chen announced his itinerary, which made Ye Cong's face full of doubts.
The next day, Elise called and said that she wanted to go home first, and asked Ye Chen to order a plane for the evening, and the two agreed to meet at the international airport.
There is still a long time before the evening flight, and there is no competition today, so Ye Chen plans to go around Kyiv again. Kiev is a famous religious city, and there are many Orthodox churches in the Baroque style. In addition to going to some places created by natural forces, Ye Chen also likes to accumulate historical relics with strong humanistic values.
Fortunately, Ye Chen met a local couple in a church who was holding a wedding.
Driving to the church, I saw the green and gold top and blue walls of the church from a distance, and many vehicles were already parked in the nearby parking space. Getting off the bus and walking to the church, looking at the thick and solemn walls, towering stone pillars, beautifully carved wooden arches, and long windows with multicolored glass, Ye Chen really felt that this was a very suitable wedding location.
Pots of flowers were visited on the road of the church, and Ye Chen stood among the guests watching the ceremony, very excited to watch the wedding of the locals.
The bridesmaids and groomsmen stood on the altar, the melodious sound of the organ wafting as the bride took her father's arm and stood opposite the groom next to the priest. Two cute little flower girls followed behind the bride and scattered petals to the audience on Ye Chen's side.
A priest dressed in full costume stood in front of the bride and groom and recited a long introduction and a message, after the first speech, the priest asked the bride and groom to exchange the icons in their hands, and then removed the crown that the bride and groom wore on their heads and crossed the two men several times, and the two men exchanged places several times as if they were walking on the stage.
The priest then asks the bridegroom to take the bride's hand and feed them three times the holy bread and the wine, which symbolizes the blood of Jesus. The priest then stepped down from the altar and fed the holy bread to the immediate family one by one. In the middle, there were many sermons, and the guests were invited to stand up many times. Anyway, it took a long time for the whole ritual to end, as if it had been a few hours.
After watching the wedding ceremony, Ye Chen left this church, obviously not able to play freely here for the time being, but there are many churches nearby, which is also a major feature of Kiev.
Art and nature are always cleverly combined, and when you walk into the cathedral, the dome of dozens of pillars is like a cosmic firmament, and you seem very small. The murals on the wall are also difficult to distinguish under the passage of time, because tourists walk by from time to time, Ye Chen can't teleport to the murals above to watch at will.
Maybe he was looking forward to a date with Elise, Ye Chen felt that it was really boring for him to travel alone, so he took some photos around and around, and he didn't have the fun of yesterday at Kyiv University.
finally got through the time in boredom, and Ye Chen also arrived at the airport by car.
"Hi Elise, I just arrived at the airport, where are you?"
"I'm resting in the departure lounge, come here." Elise's voice came from the phone.
After going to the ticket at the service desk, Ye Chen found the corresponding boarding gate according to the prompts of the ticket, and the window next to it was the seat in the waiting hall, and he saw Elise sitting on the seat with her head sideways from a distance.
"Hi, Ye. I am here. When Elise saw Ye Chen coming, she stood up and beckoned to him.
"Sorry, Elise, I'm late." Ye Chen trotted to the waiting area.
"It's okay, I've just arrived here." Elise smiled.
Today, Elise wore a short-sleeved shirt in the style of green florals, and a pale yellow Sha skirt around her lower body, looking full of youthful energy.
"Elise, how long are you going to stay in Yalta?" Sitting next to Elise, Ye Chen opened a bottle of Coke.
"It may be half a month," Elise said after a moment's thought, "I'm not sure yet, I'll rest for a few more days if there's nothing to do here." ”
"Every year at this time of year, I take a vacation there."
