Compared to Beijing, the temperature in Los Angeles was much higher. As soon as Fu Wan got off the plane, she felt a wave of heat hit her.
Most of the people around me were wearing shirts, and my thick coat really looked out of place.
Fortunately, they had brought spring and autumn clothes with them. Jack had driven over; it had been half a year since they last met, and he was very excited.
"Wan, let me tell you, my fishing skills are really good now. You should rest for a day, and I'll take you fishing tomorrow!"
After saying that, he winked at Fu Wan, but Bai Qianzhou narrowed his eyes and inadvertently blocked his view.
"Fishing, is there a sea nearby?"
Fu Wan glanced at Bai Qianzhou. They had seen a rough map from the camp before they came, and the items were in the waters off the Florida Keys.
As for the sea near Los Angeles, they didn't really pay much attention to it.
Jack, however, paid no attention to Fu Wan's question and instead stared intently at Bai Qianzhou.
Hmm, I've never seen this person before?
Jack glanced at Bai Qianzhou suspiciously. He had assumed the man next to Fu Wan was Fu Ming, but it turned out to be a stranger.
When he last came, Bai Qianzhou was extremely busy, and the two did not meet.
As their eyes met, an invisible force collided. Fu Wan was walking towards the parking lot when she turned her head and found the two of them staring at each other.
"What are you two standing there for? Stop standing there and get moving!"
"Oh, here it comes!"
Bai Qianzhou glanced at Jack, then hurriedly followed, carrying his things.
Jack was a little confused. Why was this Chinese man glaring at him? It was so strange.
However, he has a childish temper and quickly put those emotions behind him.
Compared to getting to know Bai Qianzhou, he was more looking forward to going to sea with Fu Wan again.
Jack arrived in a gray Volkswagen Santana. After Bai Qianzhou put the luggage away, Fu Wan got into the back seat. (Image of a 1985 Volkswagen Santana from the internet, please delete if infringing copyright). Jack was still a little dissatisfied with this and opened the passenger door, gesturing to Fu Wan: "Wan, here!"
His Chinese proficiency has actually improved considerably, but when he's in a hurry, he still instinctively speaks his mother tongue.
Bai Qianzhou had opened the back door, but upon seeing this, he raised an eyebrow, closed the back door, and sat in the passenger seat.
This move left Jack speechless, and he exclaimed "Oh man!" several times.
The Santana was fairly comfortable, and Fu Wan's gaze remained fixed on the scenery outside the window after getting in the car.
By the 1980s, America was already very international, and compared to Beijing, it certainly looked more upscale.
The pedestrians on the street were dressed in all sorts of clothes, and Fu Wan even saw many fashionable women wearing sundresses and sunglasses.
At first glance, it felt like I had traveled back to the modern era.
Where are we going now?
Bai Qianzhou was worried that Jack wouldn't understand, so he automatically repeated it in English.
His accent was so perfect that Jack instinctively replied, "To my house?"
"Home? Or should we go to a hotel instead?"
Fu Wan never intended to stay at Jack's house in the first place. They were not going to stay in Los Angeles for long and did not want to cause them any trouble.
Jack did not reject the offer, because he had limited funds and was currently renting a house.
In the United States, houses are subject to annual taxes. Fu Fengying, being too old to bother with the hassle, bought a small villa in the town.
However, they were far from downtown Los Angeles, and Fu Wan and her companions had been traveling a long way. Jack planned to visit Fu Fengying after they had rested.
Fu Wan listened with great interest as Jack rambled on.
The hotel was booked near Jack's rented house. After dropping Fu Wan and Bai Qianzhou off at the hotel, Jack went to arrange the sea trip for the next two days.
Fu Wan and Bai Qianzhou each have a hotel room, and the rooms are next to each other.
Bai Qianzhou handled all the hotel bookings and payments. Fu Wan carried her luggage into the room and then took a shower from head to toe.
To her surprise, the hotel even had a hairdryer. Fu Wan quickly dried her hair and then heard someone knocking on the door.
"Ah Wan, open the door, it's me."
Bai Qianzhou's calm voice came in, and Fu Wan hurriedly stepped forward to open the door.
"I just went downstairs and bought some things, you can have something to eat for now."
Although I took a plane along the way, the huge time difference still took a toll on my body.
Fu Wan took the paper bag and saw that it was indeed full of fried chicken, hamburgers, and cola, full of foreign flavors.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
Bai Qianzhou shook his head; everything he bought was here.
"Then let's sit down and eat together."
Fu Wan put the luggage on the table aside, and Bai Qianzhou, seeing this, did not hesitate and took everything out of the bag.
"Oh, right, there's something else I didn't give you."
Bai Qianzhou suddenly remembered something, put down what he was holding, and turned to go into his room.
Fu Wan was a little puzzled. When Bai Qianzhou came over again and she saw what he was holding, she was surprised for a few seconds.
"How did you bring this thing out?"
Good heavens, Bai Qianzhou's box actually contained two wooden guns!
Bai Qianzhou smiled and said, "I didn't bring it with me; I asked a friend to buy it for me beforehand."
"I went downstairs to buy something and bumped into him there."
The dangers they encountered this time were all unknown. Bai Qianzhou thought for a long time and decided that he had to find some protection for himself and Fu Wan.
Sun Shao-ping tacitly approved of this, as long as it didn't cause any major trouble, the embassy would cover for them.
"This is amazing! We can actually use this!"
The wooden gun was no different from the one she had used before. Fu Wan looked it over and put it back in the box.
Bai Qianzhou pushed the box under her bed, and Fu Wan couldn't help but ask, "Don't you need it over there?"
"I still have some."
Well, Fu Wan admired him too; he could handle a scalpel as well as firearms.
After the two ate something simple, Bai Qianzhou went back to his room to rest.
After such a long and tiring journey, I didn't sleep well on the plane either.
Fu Wan slept until the next morning. When Jack came over, he also brought breakfast.
"Have you all rested well? I've arranged a car; we're going to Auntie's place today. There's a spot in the sea there where we can try fishing!"
Jack was in high spirits; he genuinely believed that Fu Wan had come to visit relatives.
Although he didn't know why Fu Wan suddenly came to America, he felt that this was what Fu Fengying meant by visiting relatives!
Having the excuse of visiting relatives, one naturally has to put on a show of politeness.
Fu Wan immediately agreed, "Okay, let's pack our things and leave after breakfast!"
They need to stay in Los Angeles for two days before going to Florida to check on things.
Apart from the seas that were later contaminated by nuclear wastewater, the seas of today, regardless of their location, must be in excellent condition!
