Chapter 3 Pressure (Subscription Requested)
Due to heavy snowfall, the train from Hamburg to Zurich was delayed by two hours. When the Yannick family arrived in Lucerne, it was six o'clock in the evening, and they had been tossing and turning for twenty-four hours on the road.
Zhou Nan and Audrey arrived at the train station at 4 p.m., where most of the shops were already decorated for festive purposes, and young people could be seen everywhere on the street who had replaced their usual hats with Santa hats.
Without waiting for Yannick and them, the two of them walked around the shop next to them, and Zhou Nan also found his book in the bookstore, and put it in the most conspicuous position.
When the three clerks saw Zhou Nan and Audrey, they all looked very excited, looking at them curiously on the side, muttering in a low voice from time to time. But it didn't disturb their two-person world, but they just smiled sweeter.
Zhou Nan's fame in Europe grew, especially after his appointment in the Swiss government, and he became the pride of Lucerne, and the whole city was proud of him.
He originally wanted to name his family's farm Audrey's Farm, but the media already referred to their new home as Jonas Farm.
It has become a new cultural attraction in Lucerne, and many are calling for Jonas Farm to be open for tourists one day a week.
But Zhou Nan didn't have an open mind, it was his home, and he didn't like to open his home for everyone to visit at will.
The Swiss Government did not accede to this appeal for the sake of his safety. On the contrary, there is a special checkpoint next to the only entrance to the peninsula, that is, the building of the convention center, and two soldiers are stationed for a long time.
However, the Lucerne government intended to cut down a part of the forest on the hillside at the northern end of the farm to set up a viewing platform.
The whole peninsula is the remnant of the Rigi Mountain, and at the northern end there is more than ten meters higher than the farm, and the hill is forty or fifty meters higher than the farm, where the environment of Zhou Nan's home can be clearly seen except in the southeast.
Zhou Nan was noncommittal about this, and Entle Buch was very impressed, but this plan was implemented, and it would have to wait until after spring.
Zhou Nan walked around the bookstore and picked up a German version of "The Hobbit". When paying at the door, a clerk came back panting with a camera, and the two clerks who had been grinding for a long time sped up and couldn't help asking, "Jonas, can we take a picture with you?" ”
Audrey pursed her lips and smiled, and took the paper bag containing the book. "Do you want me to take a picture of you?"
They all laughed. "Thank you, Miss Hepburn."
Audrey playfully said, "You should call me Mrs. Zhou." ”
The older girl who went out to borrow the camera smiled, "That's true, but you're too young to think you're still in high school...... Mrs. Zhou couldn't say anything. ”
Zhou Nan stood in the middle, and the three girls snuggled up to him, taking two photos in a row, and they sent Zhou Nan and them out of the bookstore with satisfaction.
Audrey pulled Zhou Nan into the next record store, which had a phone booth-like cubicle in this era, so that customers could listen to music.
Audrey scraped on Zhou Nan's arm and said nonchalantly: "Honey, I'm jealous, I'm jealous." ”
Zhou Nan smiled dotingly: "The Lord said that jealousy is the original sin. ”
"Don't listen, I don't listen......" Audrey puffed out her little mouth and said coquettishly: "Coax me, or I will be jealous." ”
She looked so cute, Zhou Nan couldn't help but step forward and kiss her on the lips. "Is that enough?"
She was embarrassed, looked around secretly, met the smiling faces of the clerk and a few customers, and shyly got into Zhou Nan's arms.
Zhou Nan thought that the wind and waves were calm, and the two of them waited in the waiting hall for the nearest train from Zurich. If the train didn't wait for Yannick and them, they decided to go home first, it was too cold.
Leaning on Zhou Nan's arms, Audrey suddenly said again: "Jonas, I'm still jealous. They both like you and don't like me, and make me feel like an ugly duckling next to a swan. ”
"No, they like you, you're so cute......"
"They like me because of you, I know. The teachers at school also took care of me because of you, and my classmates were jealous of me, Jonas, and I didn't know what to do better. ”
Zhou Nanleng paused, sat up straight, straightened her body, and looked at her.
Audrey's usually bright eyes seemed a little dazed at the moment, as if they were clouded.
She buried her head in Zhou Nan's arms a little embarrassed, and said quietly: "Jonas, I have grown up, and I understand many things that I didn't understand before. It's like I'm a burden to you, taking it all the time, but not knowing what to give back. I didn't want to, but I didn't know what to do. ”
Zhou Nan hugged her lightly and comforted: "Your love is the best reward for me." No matter where I go, as long as I think of you in my heart, I feel full of happiness. ”
He could feel the pressure on Audrey as well, but he didn't know how to comfort her. In the world of feelings, even though he has two lifetimes of life experience, he is also a newcomer.
Based on his education, he believed that women should live in dependence on men. But he is no longer an ordinary person, he is not only an idol of thousands of young people, but also a big man.
At such a time, Audrey, an "ordinary" girl, will naturally face countless critical eyes and feel a lot of pressure.
Audrey hummed for a moment, hugged Zhou Nan's waist tightly and said: "Jonas, I am also very happy, I am my greatest luck to meet you, I have never doubted it." However, I feel like a beautiful dress you wear today, maybe you like it today, but you won't like it in the future, because a dress has no life and no connotation. Didn't you tell me before, Jonas, that a man is a tree and a woman is a vine? But...... Even a vine has a life of its own. ”
Zhou Nan hugged her, patted her on the back and said, "You are still in school, and you are still in the learning stage of life, don't put too much pressure on yourself, okay?" You can dance, you can play the piano, and now you're learning to act, and you may be more famous than me in the future. ”
He had thought that he would talk to Audrey about this topic, but he never thought that it would explode because of a photo with a few clerks, and the two talked about it in the cold waiting hall of the train station.
Audrey whispered: "But I'm not that kind of genius girl, I found out when I danced, Stephanie danced better than me, I was dancing with a plank, and she seemed to be dancing with her life." I don't have much talent for playing the piano, and Marita is much better than me. You add my piano music to the record, and I don't know how many people think I'm a virtuoso who doesn't live up to my name. Jonas, I want to make myself better, just so that when other people mention me, they will no longer say disdainfully that it was just a lucky girl, but that Audrey Hepburn is worthy of Jonas Hoffman Zhou's wife. ”
Zhou Nan felt a little excited, but unfortunately this was a train station where people came and went. He put his arm around Audrey's shoulders and whispered in her ear, "Whatever you want to do, I'll support you." ”
Audrey affirmed: "I wanted to make a movie, and during this time, I felt like I was the embodiment of Anne Frank, and this feeling made me feel that if I didn't make it again, I might not feel this way in the future." ”
"Okay, taking advantage of this vacation, I'll write Anne's as soon as possible."
The train slowly entered the station, and this time Zhou Nan and Audrey were not disappointed again, and soon saw the Hoffman family getting off the car with large bags and small bags.
Zhou Nan also met the handsome O'Eri Jiaki for the first time, because he looked a little thin after a year in prison, which made him look more conspicuous with a bush of beard on his upper lip.
He was also apparently a young man who was very careful about his appearance, and he had trimmed his beard into a beautiful geometric shape, which was also shaped with hairspray.
It's just that Zhou Nan, who has experienced the aesthetics of later generations, wants to laugh when he sees his beard.
The weather was too cold, and everyone didn't say much to each other, so they packed their luggage and prepared to go home.
By this time it was already dark, and when you came to the lake, you could see the whole of Lucerne lit up in the night. All the lights in Lucerne are yellow, and there is no other color, and in the snowy white world, this yellow light makes the whole city feel like a fairy tale.
Caroline couldn't help but sigh: "It's so beautiful and intoxicating, I don't even want to leave." ”
After a few months of separation, Lily was still a little shy at first, but now she seemed to think of Zhou Nan and Audrey, and no longer avoided them. "OMA, why don't we live here?"
Caroline kissed her on the outside of her hat and smiled, "My Lily knows it's beautiful!" ”
She stole a glance at Audrey, who was talking intimately with Claudio, and laughed embarrassedly.
O'Elli is actually Swiss, and his family moved their focus from Germany to Basel, Switzerland, 50 years ago, and set up two pharmaceutical companies, which are growing very well.
Because of his close ties with Bayer, he met Yannick and married Vera.
He was released before Christmas this time, and Yannick went through a lot of relationships. And Yannick can now get the attention of the British in Germany because of Zhou Nan.
Therefore, O'Ely also has a lot of respect for Zhou Nan, and he is a brother of Jonas, and he is very intimate.
The snowflakes fell on his beard, melted by the breath, and quickly froze. On the boat, he kept wiping his beard, which made Zhou Nan want to laugh even more.
Seeing the lights of the speedboat, Halder and Kelly were waiting on the dock. When the boat stopped, Kelly took the anchor rope thrown by Zhou Nan and tied it to the dock post. "Thank goodness you finally arrived safely."
