Chapter 128 Chapter 128 Spending Money Day 128
This scene was indeed a bit awkward, but fortunately He Zhiyuan quickly found a way to resolve it.
His eyes looked at the grilled lamb skewers on the table. Liu Yue immediately understood and invited the couple to come over and have some.
They definitely can't do it themselves anyway, so they might as well come over and eat something ready-made.
People from Northeast China are indeed generous and open-minded. After receiving the invitation, the couple did not hesitate and sat down at the shared table.
They also brought gifts for Liu Yue - vacuum-packed sausages and pine nut tripe, as well as a few bottles of kvass.
Liu Yue gladly accepted it, added more bowls and chopsticks for them, and warmly invited them to eat as much as they wanted.
The girl in this couple is called Sheng Xue and the boy is called Zheng Yang. Their names sound like a good match.
As the four of them chatted at the table, Liu Yue also learned that they were childhood sweethearts, campus lovers, who had known each other since kindergarten, attended elementary and middle school together, overcame a four-year long-distance relationship in college, and reunited in their hometown after graduation.
Zheng Yang said that both parents have already chosen a name for the child, and whether it is a boy or a girl, the child can be called Chunbai.
Liu Yue thought that this name was really good. It not only formed the idiom of "high spring and white snow", but also had a very meaningful meaning when read alone.
She had previously thought that the couple's relationship was superficial, but she didn't expect their friendship to be so deep.
However, she didn't say anything extra. Only the person involved knew best about matters of the heart, and since they had only met once, she had no right to advise others.
After lunch, Liu Yue wanted to take some photos by the river, and Sheng Xue happened to have the same idea.
She had long given up hope for Zheng Yang's photography skills, but He Zhiyuan was very good at taking photos of Liu Yue. She watched with envy and couldn't help but complain, "Look at that guy's boyfriend!"
Zheng Yang spread his hands: "I'm not a professional photographer."
"He's not like that either. He just said he's a lawyer! As long as you put your mind to it, you can do it. You know I love taking pictures, but you just don't put your mind to it."
"How can I be impatient? I'm usually so busy with work..."
The two of them were about to start arguing again, but they managed to suppress it because they were concerned about the presence of Liu Yue and He Zhiyuan.
Seeing the atmosphere around them becoming awkward, Sheng Xue felt bad and offered to tell a joke to lighten the mood. She suggested taking a photo with Liu Yue, who agreed, and they walked off to admire the scenery.
Seeing her walk away, Zheng Yang sighed.
He Zhiyuan didn't understand what he was thinking: "If you didn't want to quarrel, why didn't you just go along with her? Wouldn't it be fine if you just admitted your mistake and said you would improve next time?"
Zheng Yang had a complicated expression. "Brother, you and your girlfriend are still in the honeymoon phase. You've been dating for less than half a year, right?"
This is indeed the case, but He Zhiyuan does not think there is any inevitable causal relationship.
Most men have the bad habit of losing their novelty, but he didn't. Thinking of this, He Zhiyuan couldn't help but feel proud of himself.
He didn't respond, which didn't affect Zheng Yang's muttering beside him.
The feelings in student days are passionate and beautiful. There is no pressure at that time. All you think about every day is how to have fun. You can devote yourself to love and naturally have unlimited understanding and tolerance for your lover.
If it was a college trip and both of them burned their lamb skewers, they would just laugh at each other and take photos to record the black history;
But once they find work and enter society, they instinctively start calculating the cost of food and lost travel time. Understanding and tolerance disappear, leaving only endless arguments to wear away their love.
Zheng Yang was complaining, and Sheng Xue was sharing her thoughts with Liu Yue.
She asked Liu Yue: "Have you ever had a fight with your boyfriend?"
Liu Yue shook her head. This was such an unfamiliar topic to her.
To be honest, although she felt that the two of them were evenly matched in the quarrel just now, if a man dared to speak to her in the same tone as Zheng Yang and Sheng Xue when they quarreled, he would never appear in front of her in his life.
Sheng Xue didn't want to quarrel, but when she was emotional, she could easily lose control of herself.
She asked Liu Yue: "Was it your friend who helped you with the barbecue just now?"
I don't know why, but they were sitting at another table.
"It's my chef," Liu Yue replied. "The one who helped you light the fire was my assistant."
Unless necessary, she would not tell others that Zhang Cheng was a bodyguard.
Oh, that makes sense...
But when Liu Yue went out to play, she actually brought a chef and an assistant with her. Sheng Xue was very envious when she heard that.
She suddenly thought that if she also had such a team that could help her solve all the problems of lunch by the river, she and Zheng Yang would probably be able to sit down calmly and enjoy the time together.
The quarrels between couples in daily life all come from trivial matters. Rich people are well taken care of by their teams and all problems are solved directly from the root. They are so happy.
Perhaps, as long as Liu Yue wanted, her love would always be this pure. She could fully enjoy love in its most original and beautiful form, without being corrupted by the mundane daily grind of life.
On the other side, Zheng Yang asked the price of the aquamarine necklace in He Zhiyuan's hand.
He Zhiyuan thought for a moment: "I don't remember exactly, I think it was a few thousand yuan."
Zheng Yang was shocked. "Dude, I just bought this at the No. 3 stall this morning. How could you forget about thousands of dollars in the blink of an eye?"
He Zhiyuan explained simply that Liu Yue was in high spirits at the time and was in a hurry to pick up stones.
Although this was a couple's pair—he insisted so—it was indeed just something Liu Yue picked up casually. She wanted to pay, but he was quicker than her, but neither of them paid much attention to this little thing.
Zheng Yang's expression became even more complicated. After a while, he said, "No wonder you two have such a good relationship."
Sheng Xue also liked the bracelet, but she couldn't bear to part with it. Zheng Yang also thought it was too expensive. A few thousand yuan could buy gold, so it was a shame to buy jewelry in a scenic area.
Zheng Yang comforted her and said that he would buy her gold when he returned. With the same amount of money, she could buy a more valuable commodity. Besides, gold is so beautiful, not inferior to aquamarine at all.
This is the truth, but the emotional value at that moment, once missed, is missed, and no amount of gold can make up for it.
After getting in the car, Liu Yue still remembered Sheng Xue's emotional words.
She said that pure love is the real luxury that can divide classes.
She said this to He Zhiyuan, who stroked her hair and kissed the top of her head.
"It seems I'm very lucky." He Zhiyuan said, "Maybe I saved the Milky Way in my previous life."
Liu Yue snorted: "Other people use the word 'the whole universe'."
He Zhiyuan readily changed his description and even leaned over to kiss her. The two of them played around in the car for a while before returning to their seats in the sofa area.
The RV started again and drove towards its destination, Burqin.
Because the morning tour and lunch picnic took some time, they arrived at Wucai Beach later than expected.
But it's no big deal, it will just be sunset.
Liu Yue and He Zhiyuan stood at Shouguang Terrace in the scenic area. It was still dark, and a fiery red sunset shone on the horizon. The red light on the horizon, with orange and pink hues, looked very gorgeous and spectacular.
The sunset is beautiful, but the rocks at Wucai Beach...
Liu Yue opened the guide post on Xiaohongshu and took a comparison picture of the scene. She couldn't help but think, why did she fall for it again after being scammed so many times?
It’s not that Wucai Beach is not beautiful at all. The rocks under the Tyndall effect can indeed show colorful colors, but she had too high expectations for the filtered pictures, so she was naturally disappointed when she arrived at the scene.
She wasn't the only disappointed tourist, but at least she had come prepared: she wore a protective headgear, bundled up, and sprayed herself with insect repellent.
Tourists who didn't make a travel guide were not so lucky. There were a lot of "small bites" on Wucai Beach. This is a mosquito with the scientific name "Black Mosquito". When they appeared in overwhelming numbers, He Zhiyuan pulled Liu Yue away quickly.
He let her run ahead while he waved his arms behind to shoo them away. It would have been fine if he hadn't provoked them, as there were still many tourists on the Colorful Beach. But when he waved his arms like that, some of the little bites took notice and buzzed around him.
Liu Yue, who had retreated to a safe distance, wanted to laugh. She took out her cell phone to take a picture of He Zhiyuan, recording his miserable appearance at the moment.
When He Zhiyuan came over, she showed him the photo album on her mobile phone. He was so angry that he reached out to tickle her. The two of them laughed and joked. Maybe because they laughed too loudly, other tourists looked over.
Liu Yue didn't want to attract attention. She and He Zhiyuan returned to the RV, sat on the sofa, and laughed so hard that they couldn't straighten their backs because of the look in their eyes.
He Zhiyuan poked her cheek: "What's so funny?"
"You're not laughing yourself!"
Liu Yue also felt a little confused, but for some reason, she just wanted to laugh.
I went to Wucai Beach and it was a real disappointment. I had to edit the scenery photos, and I didn't take any portraits. There were also a lot of mosquitoes around.
Even so, the two of them were still laughing foolishly in the RV. Looking at each other laughing, Liu Yue felt that she was really careless.
Liu Yue said, "We're going to Burqin to eat grilled fish later. I'm a little worried. What if this doesn't taste good?"
This is also highly recommended by Xiaohongshu netizens - but Liu Yue feels that her ability to identify advertisements needs to be improved.
"It's okay." He Zhiyuan took off her hat. "If it doesn't taste good, give it to me and ask the chef to make you a new one."
Liu Yue pointed at her finger: "I'm sorry I always bully you like this."
He Zhiyuan kissed her and said with a smile: "Then...if it's delicious, I will finish it before you. I eat faster than you."
"How can you do this? I won't allow it!" Liu Yue nudged him with her elbow.
"I want to eat it, I want to eat it, you can't take it away from me~"
"You are such a bad person, I must punish you!"
"Hiss—don't pinch here..."
On the way to the city, the playfulness and laughter in the RV never stopped.
