The winters in Beijing are also quite cold and dry. In Jian Yunxi's first year at Peking University, she had a nosebleed because she couldn't adapt to the weather. She had to apply a thick layer of moisturizing cream every night before going to bed.
When he arrived at Harbin Station at 7:30 in the morning, Jian Yunxi felt that the carbon dioxide he exhaled would freeze immediately.
She was wearing a red woolen hat and Lu Yang was wearing a black one, but neither could keep out the cold wind that was trying to get in.
The two of them lived in Home Inn near Central Avenue, and Lu Yang was used to booking a king-size bed room.
After putting their things away, they went to Central Street hand in hand to have breakfast. Jian Yunxi had read in a travel guide that one must try the bread at Huamei Western Restaurant when visiting Harbin, but she had no interest in bread, so in the end, they just ate fried dough sticks soaked in soy milk.
In order to take beautiful photos of the snow scene for Jian Yunxi, Lu Yang bought a digital camera with the prize money he won from the Mathematical Modeling Competition.
Jian Yunxi felt distressed, but Lu Yang said, "Yunxi, I want to use it to take pictures of all the beautiful aspects of you. It's worth it no matter how expensive it is."
Hagia Sophia is really beautiful, not to mention the snow scene. Jian Yunxi, wearing a light pink down jacket, a furry collar and a red woolen hat, looks like an elf in the snow.
Her cheeks were slightly flushed by the cold wind, which made her bright eyes even clearer and more moving.
Lu Yang raised the camera, his eyes behind the lens were gentle and focused.
“Crack—”
The shutter sounded, and Lu Yang looked down at the screen. Jian Yunxi in the photo seemed to blend into the snowy scene, pure and beautiful. He couldn't help but chuckle, "Sure enough, no matter how expensive the camera is, it can't take a picture of you that's even one ten-thousandth as beautiful as you."
Jian Yunxi trotted over, looked at the photo closely, and deliberately curled his lips: "You're so smooth-talking." But the smile in his eyes could not be hidden.
Lu Yang took the opportunity to put his arm around her shoulders and whispered, "I'm not being glib, I'm speaking from the heart." He pointed to the church spire in the distance and said, "Look, no matter how beautiful the snowy scenery of St. Sophia is, it's not as beautiful as your smile when you turn around."
Jian Yunxi's ears felt slightly hot, and she gently pushed him: "Let's find other tourists to take some photos for us."
"OK!"
Lu Yang happened to see a couple nearby, so he went up to communicate with them. The other party readily agreed, so a photo like this appeared in the camera.
Little Red Riding Hood leans on Little Black Riding Hood, and Little Black Riding Hood hugs Little Red Riding Hood's shoulders. The smiles on their faces are the same curve. The Hagia Sophia behind them is magnificent and romantic.
At noon, the two of them went to eat the famous pork ribs steamed buns. Jian Yunxi didn't know that steamed buns could actually be stuffed with pork ribs. However, she couldn't accept the sauerkraut soup, just like she still couldn't accept fried dough sticks and soy milk after studying in Beijing for two years.
We had originally planned to take a horse carriage ride on the Songhua River in the afternoon, but it suddenly started snowing and the snowflakes were very large.
Jian Yunxi originally wanted to watch the snow scene for a while, but it was too cold and her eyebrows were covered with snow. Lu Yang thought she was so cute and immediately recorded her appearance with his camera.
Fortunately, the snow didn’t last long. Lu Yang bought tickets and took Jian Yunxi to the Harbin Ice and Snow World.
As soon as Jian Yunxi stepped into the world of ice and snow, he was so shocked by the scene before him that he was speechless.
The crystal clear ice sculptures, illuminated by colorful lights, look like crystal palaces in fairy tales, dazzling and brilliant.
She couldn't help but jog a few steps and reached out to touch the smooth ice surface. The coolness from her fingertips made her smile even brighter. "Lu Yang, it's so cold!"
Lu Yang was worried that Jian Yunxi might get frostbite, so he quickly took her hand and blew on it, then stuffed it back into her glove.
"Put it on. I don't want you to get frostbite."
Jian Yunxi nodded obediently.
"Stand there, Yunxi, I'll take a picture of you."
The place Lu Yang pointed to was a huge ice castle, and Jian Yunxi's eyes were sparkling in the camera.
The two continued strolling in the ice and snow kingdom. Passing through the ice sculpture corridor was a crystal clear ice slide. However, there were already many people queuing in front of it. They didn't get annoyed, after all, queuing was the norm during holiday travel.
Finally it was their turn. The staff handed them a sliding mat. Lu Yang asked Jian Yunxi to sit in front of him and gently hugged her waist: "Don't be nervous, I'm behind you."
Jian Yunxi nodded, but her heart beat faster involuntarily.
With a gentle push from the staff, Jian Yunxi felt her body sliding down rapidly. She couldn't help but exclaim and laugh.
"Is it fun?" Lu Yang asked her in her ear.
"It's so much fun!"
When sliding down, Jian Yunxi felt so happy, all the pressure during this period was released!
Lu Yang pinched Jian Yunxi's red nose and asked, "Do you want to play again?"
Jian Yunxi's eyes lit up, but after looking at the long line, he hesitated: "But there are so many people..."
"It doesn't matter. We have plenty of time anyway." Lu Yang took her hand and naturally led her back to the queue area.
It was already past ten o'clock when they returned to the hotel. They had planned to go to the Red Brick Street morning market for breakfast tomorrow.
Jian Yunxi washed up first and went into bed. After a while, he was almost asleep.
When Lu Yang entered the bed, he brought in a hint of cold air. Jian Yunxi shuddered and couldn't help but hug Lu Yang.
"Why aren't you wearing a shirt?"
"I have to take it off later anyway."
Jian Yunxi swore that she just wanted to sleep, but somehow she felt that Lu Yang had abdominal muscles. She lifted the quilt and saw that it was real.
"You are busy with competitions every day, how can you have the chance to exercise?"
"Well, do sit-ups and push-ups every day as a way to relax."
Now Jian Yunxi's shoulders are half exposed, and her eyes are blurred and full of admiration.
