Cirque Lodge is the name of the Utah retreat, a drug rehabilitation center in the heart of the Rocky Mountains, surrounded by mountains, as its name suggests. Cirque, which means "a depression that resembles an amphitheater surrounded by mountains," allows patients to live in such a lodge that overlooks the mountains at a height of 12,000 feet. Until mid-May, snow still shimmered at the summit.
And Su Zhen, Avril Lavril and Deke meet Lux who is here with her mother in a nearby town.
"Baby, I miss you to death" Seeing Lux, Su Zhen gave Luxe a big hug without hesitation.
"Thank you, Su," said Lux with a sweet smile in Su Zhen's arms.
"Needless to say, Xie Lu Xie, we are husband and wife, aren't we?" Su Zhen stroked his lover's fragrant shoulder and said with a smile.
"Ahem, I said that you should pay attention to the occasion when you talk about love" Just when Su Zhen and Lux were immersed in the joy of Xiao Biesheng's newlywed, Avril's resentful voice came from the side... Show affection or something is the most annoying.
Seeing the resentment on Avril and Deke's faces on their faces, Su Zhen couldn't hold back no matter how thick-skinned he was, so he beckoned everyone and Lux into the house.
In order to better her mother, Lux specially bought a house in a small town near this recuperation center, although it is not big, but it is also very comfortable, as for the safety of the people, there is no need to worry, generally speaking, the folk customs of the western countryside are still very simple, and the crime rate in the countryside is much lower than that in the city - the poor live in the city, the rich live in the countryside, generally speaking, there are few poor people in the countryside in the United States, you must know that the farmers in the United States are basically the middle class. What's more, Lux still has a lot of bodyguards with her, doesn't she?
Take a break at Lux's residence and have lunch. The trio, led by Lux, went to the rehabilitation center to see her mother, Kelly.
As the group walked into the rehab center made of rough rock, glass and wood, a tall horse named Rio was the first to greet the guests. Su Zhen familiarly touched its nose with his right hand, and then quickly touched its right leg, motioning for it to take a step back, and Rio did so.
"Looks like you're very familiar with horses," said Dave, who stood a few steps away. Baker, a horse trainer and therapist at the rehabilitation center, said with a smile when he saw Su Zhen's skillful movements.
"In my spare time, I often like to go horseback riding on my own ranch," Su Zhen explained with a smile, and learned from the exchange with Lux on the road that one of the magic weapons of the "Huangu Hut" rehabilitation center is to "let patients raise horses". Horses in the center. All imported from England and with cubicles of the same high class as the Queen's horses, each patient needs to domesticate a tall horse for "moral correction". "If you yourself are angry and sluggish, so will your horse; If you are patient, kind, and temperate. Your horse will be in the same state. The process of building a relationship with a horse is the process of opening the knot. ”
Su Zhen, who has a lot of ranch experience in this regard, agrees. In the process of communication between humans and horses. People can learn a lot, honesty, self-control, sharpness, and undivided attention, so real cowboys are very simple.
Under Dave's leadership, the three of them went to the "studio", an annex building of the rehabilitation center, where Kelly, who had completed the "twelve-step" therapy at the rehabilitation center, lived.
The Circle Valley Lodge offers its patients a mix of cognitive and behavioural therapy – one-on-one or in small groups, with the classic twelve-step therapy consisting of nightly meetings, a hearty dinner, inspirational presentations or readings, exercise and medical treatment, appropriate care and full pampering.
On the way, Dave briefed Su Zhen on the situation of the recuperation center. Although it is a drug rehabilitation center, it is actually more comfortable than the average tourist health center, with an indoor racecourse, shops, recording studios (for those celebrities who can do music production here) and restaurants. With its cosy marble bathrooms and jacuzzis, the center was in fact intended to be an upscale spa, but the home's owner, Richard Ruth, a local jeweller, decided to transform it into what it is now after a relative nearly died of substance abuse.
However, it is also because of the luxury of the conditions, so the fees of this drug rehabilitation center are not expensive, the price of 1,600 US dollars a day is not affordable by ordinary people, so the people in this nursing home are either rich or expensive, and because of this, the security work of this nursing home is very in place, in order to ensure the health and recuperation of patients, media reporters are absolutely forbidden to enter the scope of the nursing home, so the environment here is very quiet.
"Do you know Sister Olsen? They're here now," Dave said.
Sister Olsen? Su Zhen was a little surprised, the Olson sisters, who have been in the United States for so many years, of course Su Zhen knows who they are, the twin sisters of the famous American TV stars, speaking of which the twin sisters are not simple, 9 months old, they appeared on the TV show, and became a producer at the age of 6, and last year when they were 18 years old, they had already become the president of the American Double Star Entertainment Company, and the two of them had a net worth of nearly 400 million. Every penny they earn back is their own... His mother is called the lady of the sky, the legend of the legend, Su Zhen has also seen the two sisters at many banquets, and they know each other, but he didn't expect the two of them to be here...... And why is it obvious why it will be here?
"You two can go and don't learn from them" Su Zhen jokingly turned his head to Avril and Deke and said, with Su Zhen's support, the two of them are now much more popular than in their previous lives, and it is easy to lose themselves in such achievements at a young age, after all, they are not as self-controlled as he is a reborn.
"Don't learn from whom?" At this moment, a voice from the side asked.
"Yes, of course...... Forehead... Ashley, I didn't expect to see you here" Su Zhen saw that it was Ashley, the sister of the twin sisters, who asked the question, and wasn't it her sister Mary Kate Olsen standing next to her, Suzhou couldn't help but be extremely embarrassed, after all, he was still being right when he chewed his tongue behind his back. That's a shameful thing.
However, the two sisters didn't pay much attention to Su Zhen, just snorted, and went back to their cabin, leaving Su Zhen a little embarrassed.
"Hmph, what's the big deal, it's just two expired little stars" Seeing that the couple was so faceless, Avril was very upset for Su Zhen, and Dike on the side also nodded, I couldn't see the two sisters so arrogant. But Avril is right, and the Olsen sisters are legendary. But that's all in the past, just like most child stars, although they had a smooth childhood experience, they won't be good when they grow up, because their image in people's memories has been stereotyped. So it was very difficult to make the transition, and the Olsen sisters obviously failed. The two want to transform into making "woman" movies. Basically, they are failures, and although the two are twins, they have very different personalities, or they will part ways in a few years, and they will go their separate ways, and their sister Ashley is spicy and straightforward. Sister Mary Kate likes to be quiet, and it is only a matter of time before she flies solo, especially Ashley, who later simply quit the film and television industry and went to the fashion industry to develop. So when it comes to development potential, it's far inferior to Avril and Decker.
Ignoring this little episode, Su Zhen and the others soon met Kelly who was gardening.
"Hey Kelly, how does it feel to be here?" Seeing Lux's mother, Su Zhen greeted and looked at his mother-in-law.
is different from the heavy makeup when I first met Kelly, now Kelly is wearing a plain furniture dress, quite a housewife's style, and the face that has faded from the heavy makeup is also quite beautiful, after all, her daughter is a big beauty, how can she be bad as a mother, but she has always been covered up by heavy makeup, in fact, aside from personal prejudice, Kelly's mother is still very good to Lux, before Luxe inherited her father's property, she has been raising Luxe by her own efforts, And after inheriting a huge property, she, as Lux's mother, has countless ways to dispose of this huge property, but she didn't do that, except for using the money to buy a house for Lux, she hardly used any assets, preferring to be alone outside the home, and not meeting with Lux for a long time, in fact, there is also a reason to protect Lux from the impact of her chaotic life. After all, all the behaviors of adults must have a great impact on children.
So Lux's ability to maintain her innocence today has a lot to do with Kelly's alienated protection.
"Hello, Su, thank you for your help, and thank you for taking care of Lux, I can see that she is very happy" Kelly smiled and said to Su Zhen, during this time in the nursing home, she thought a lot, which made her personality change a lot.
Here she had to get up at 6 o'clock, walk along the riverbank at 6:30 and think about life. At half past eight, you have to complete the cleaning task, including tidying up your room and bathroom. Next, the patient will have a group meeting to discuss the day's agenda. After the 10 o'clock talk, the patients were scheduled for outdoor activities from 1 to 4 p.m., including horseback riding and gardening. Occasional spa treatments, including massages and pedicures.
After dinner, she will participate in group tasks and attend the "Twelve-Step Therapy" event. None of this was something she had ever experienced before.
When she first arrived, she, like all newcomers, was in a primitive, fragmented state of spirit, believing that everything about herself had been destroyed.
After all, although the "Valley Cabin" has five-star facilities, people are not willing to come here on their own initiative. Most of them are sent by relatives, employers, clients, or the justice system, and at least half of the patients are mentally disturbed, such as depression, extreme disorders, and disorderly eating
However, after being re-examined by a psychiatrist and assigned a separate counselor, they all slowly recovered.
Today's Kelly's appearance can be said to be completely new, and seeing Kelly's obvious changes, the happiest is naturally Lux as a daughter.
After visiting Kelly, Su Zhen was ready to stay with Lux for a few more days, while Avril and Deke went back to Los Angeles first because they still had jobs. (To be continued......)
