At my ex-boyfriend's engagement banquet, I appeared in full attire. He thought I was there to cause trouble, but I smiled very kindly and said, "We'll all be family from now on, no need...
Chapter 642 A Serious Discussion
Facts have proved that our A students take the prizes seriously.
Ren Qiongying even borrowed a globe from the student union, and we carefully selected our destination.
Suddenly, Ren Qiongying pointed to Europe and said, "I think we should go to Paris! It's the fashion capital. We can make a "V" sign under the Eiffel Tower, take pictures and post them on social media. It will definitely make the other students jealous."
Huang Tianyi curled her lips, resting her chin on her hand and said, "Paris? Too vulgar, isn't it? My mom just went there during Chinese New Year, and she complained to me about it. She said the service there was poor, there were a lot of thieves, there was garbage everywhere, rats were running around, and the public facilities were dilapidated and old. It wasn't like the beautiful movies at all."
Well, after she said that, the little bit of bourgeois sentiment that had just been ignited in us was gone.
I kindly reminded her, "Is it possible that your mother complained to you just to make you believe that not taking you with her was for your own good?"
Huang Tianyi choked and her expression became complicated. It seemed that she also began to think that this was a possibility.
"That's right, then where do you think we can go that wouldn't be tacky?" Ren Qiongying was a little unconvinced by the rebuttal.
Huang Tianyi rolled her eyes, a gleam in her eyes, "Of course we have to go to places we wouldn't go if we travel on our own, such as the African savannah, where we can watch lions hunting, wildebeest migration, and feel the primitive power of nature.
Or go to Antarctica to see the glaciers and penguins and experience the silence and grandeur of the polar regions.
These places are special, they are different. What's the point of going to a place like Paris, where anyone can go?"
After she finished speaking, she looked at us proudly, as if waiting for us to applaud and cheer.
Pang Xiaomin frowned, clearly unimpressed by Huang Tianyi's suggestion. "African savannah? Su Rina's hometown is a savannah. Even though there aren't any wildebeests, there are plenty of cattle and horses. How big of a difference can there be?"
As for Antarctica, it is not even as good as the prairie. There is nothing to see except penguins.
Besides, is there internet in Antarctica? How can I post on WeChat Moments when I travel there? She wrinkled her nose in disdain.
We looked at each other, unsure who to support. Ren Qiongying's Parisian fashion dreams were completely disrupted by Huang Tianyi's "African Wildebeest" and "Antarctic Penguin" designs. We were also a little moved by Huang Tianyi's "natural forces," but we also felt her proposal was a little too "wild."
"How about... let's think about it again?" I suggested weakly, trying to ease the atmosphere.
Huang Tianyi smiled and said, "Okay, we still have plenty of time, you can think about it slowly. But I think it's better not to go to those ordinary places."
Su Rina pondered for a moment, then suddenly said excitedly, "Why don't we go to Northern Europe to see the Northern Lights? There are fewer people in Northern Europe, so there are definitely no thieves. Just thinking about strolling in the Norwegian forest is so romantic."
Qin Shi immediately objected, "Another guy who was deceived by 'Norwegian Wood'. The novel has nothing to do with Norwegian Wood. Even the Beatles song called 'Norwegian Wood' has nothing to do with Norway.
My cousin, an engineering student, wanted to appear cultured and applied to be sent there to work for over a month based on Haruki Murakami's novel. In fact, he had no idea what the novel was about.
He regretted going there. He said it wasn't that there were fewer people there, but that there were hardly any people. He took a photo standing in the center of Oslo, and there was no one in the background. There was no one anywhere. It was so scary that he almost got depressed.
