Chapter 70: City B Foursome
Zhou Minggao, Shen Yuanyuan and Cui Yan took the high-speed rail to City B together. As soon as they got out of the high-speed rail station, they saw Xiao Ranran, who had wrapped himself like a dumpling, rushing towards them. Cui Yan opened her arms and was ready to hug her, but she turned her direction and pounced on Shen Yuan.
Cui Yan spread his hands homeopathically: "??? ”
Shen Yuan shrugged his shoulders, "Cui Yan, you're still too tender." ”
"Hush." Cui Yan turned to face Zhou Minggao, "Old Zhou, then let's hold one." ”
"Let's go, let's go." Zhou Minggao made a straight man's voice.
"Okay, I'm at the bottom of the food chain."
Xiao Ranran didn't tease Cui Yan anymore, and after letting go of Shen Yuan, he went to his side and held him. Zhou Minggao pulled Shen Yuan to his side. The four of them walked outside the station while discussing the future itinerary.
There are many famous attractions in City B, but they are not the first time to come to City B, and the main purpose is not to travel, just to get together to play, there is no arrangement for those places where there are many people and are only suitable for "checking in", and some places that are not very popular but are also more comfortable.
On their first stop in City B, they went to a local folk museum – and many people prefer to call it "XX Temple".
Unlike the museums in Province A, photography is not allowed here. Xiao Ranran is anxious, and he will naturally feel bored when he comes to this kind of place, and every time he visits an independent building, he will come out after going in and going around. Although Shen Yuanyuan was quieter than her, she was also not interested in these things, and every time Xiao Ranran went out, she also went out. On the contrary, Zhou Minggao and Cui Yan were quite interested, and the two of them started talking about something at every turn.
entered a new hall, Xiao Ranran was distracted, and Cui Yan suddenly called out to her. She subconsciously raised her head, and what caught her eye was some "amazing" statues that resembled bull heads and horse faces, cutting out tongues and gouging out eyes, which frightened her almost to exclaim.
"Isn't this a museum? How can there be statues of this type? Afraid of disturbing the other people who came to visit, Xiao Ranran lowered his voice and asked timidly.
"It's a folk museum, after all." Shen Yuan continued, "And it is more often called XX Temple, and it is normal for it to have a stronger religious atmosphere." ”
"How do you know this, aren't you also interested?"
"I read a little bit of popular science when I was doing the strategy before." Shen replied.
Because this folk museum is not big, they didn't wander around it for too long, and when it was time to eat, the four of them went to the restaurant to eat together. Listening to Cui Yan talk about the rest of the itinerary, almost all of them are "Film Museum" and "Railway Museum" and other places, Xiao Ranran was shocked, "Are we out to play or to study the culture of City B?" ”
Shen Yuanxuan was also a little puzzled - Cui Yan didn't look like someone who would be very interested in these people.
Cui Yan smiled. "To be honest, I do have a related assignment, and I chose City B as the material."
Xiao Ranran: "......"
Zhou Minggao grabbed the dish in front of him with chopsticks, and said quietly, "Aren't these places quite fun?" ”
Xiao Ranran put on a sad expression, turned his head to Shen Yuanyuan and said, "I finally feel where Zhou Minggao is three years older than you, he is really old." ”
Shen Yuanyuan nodded cooperatively, not daring to say that he was also interested in one of the museums.
That night, at Xiao Ranran's strong request, they came to the bar. Xiao Ranran said, this is where young people should come.
Shen Yuanxuan ruthlessly dismantled the stage. "Says like you've been here."
Xiao Ranran snorted, "Isn't this just here?" ”
None of them were very drinkers, except for Xiao Ranran, who ordered a nice cocktail, and they only ordered a minimal draft beer. The waiter froze in place with an embarrassed look on his face, telling them that these things did not meet the minimum consumption standard. Although they knew that this was the overlord's rule, they didn't really want to come all the way to City B to do a lot of things, so no one said anything, and ordered a plate of snacks, which was enough for the minimum consumption.
When the food and wine were served, they ate and drank and talked about it. Xiao Ranran complained about all kinds of strange things she encountered in college, she said it vividly and funny, and the other three people laughed from ear to ear. After talking about the things around her, she thought of what Shen Yuanyuan had encountered before, although she was already a little drunk, she still asked Shen Yuanyuan, "Can you say this?" ”
"Of course." Shen Yuan smiled, "There are no outsiders." ”
Xiao Ranran had the spirit again, and said a little more about how she and Shen Yuanyuan fought against Wang Yina. Shen Yuanyuan and Cui Yan were both laughing, but Zhou Minggao took a sip of wine without expression, but he didn't say much.
Shen Yuanxuan just drank a little beer, and when he was ready to return, he was already dizzy. Xiao Ranran was slightly drunk at this time, she was in a good mood, and she didn't want to go back to her residence, so Zhou Minggao asked her and Cui Yan to play first, and he took Shen Yuan back to his residence.
Xiao Ranran pretended to be serious and stared at him and said, "You are not allowed to take advantage of him." ”
Zhou Minggao smiled, and when he knew it, he pulled Shen Yuan into a taxi on the side of the road.
It was quite late, but they still encountered a traffic jam. City B is not as cold as Province A, and he was worried that the smell of alcohol on himself and Shen Yuan's body would make the driver unhappy, so Zhou Minggao opened the window a small crack.
Feeling the cool wind, Shen Xuan woke up in a daze.
"Zhou Minggao."
She called him.
"Hmm."
"You're not happy, don't think I can't see it."
Zhou Minggao pursed his lips. "I didn't, you're drunk, don't think about it."
"I'm not drunk." Shen Yuanyuan's tone now was obviously drunk, but she still insisted that she was not drunk, straightened up, sat upright, and looked at Zhou Minggao steadily. She asked, "Don't you like me anymore?" ”
Because of her drunkenness, her eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of mist, which looked very different from usual. Zhou Minggao's heart trembled when she asked, and in the end he didn't answer her, and prevaricated with "go back and talk about it".
- Of course he likes Shen Yuan.
It's just that he's been thinking about a question lately, and he's struggling with whether he's going back in time or coming to another parallel plane. "Back to the past" was just a speculation between him and Shen Yifeng from the beginning, how can it be determined?
He watched Shen Yuanxuan become more and more different from his presuppositions, and the fear of falling into parallel time and space in his heart became deeper and deeper.
- If this is not a return to the past, but a time trip to another parallel time and space, then Shen Yuanyu in front of him and the two people in his memory are really two people.
Isn't it a mistake to make up for the love for the Shen Yuan who is no longer there and fall in love with the Shen Yuan in front of you?
The congested streets gradually regained their smoothness, and Shen Yuanxuan fell asleep again on his shoulder. He lowered his head and saw that her hair was a little messy, so he subconsciously reached out and gave her a cut, but he didn't expect to be held by her half-asleep. She was a person with little strength, but this time she held it hard, as if she was afraid of losing something.
Zhou Minggao's heart softened, and all kinds of entanglements seemed to have calmed down.
He still chose to hold her back steadily.
