"Let's go to the Summer Palace," Han Chen said. "Let's skip the Great Wall. It's too hot, I don't think you can handle it. The Summer Palace has shade trees, so it's cooler. There are also kingfishers, ospreys, and herons there, which you probably haven't seen. The scenery there is also beautiful, and it should be great for taking photos."
"That's settled."
Zhou Mo was very satisfied with Han Chen's proposal and arrangement.
Compared to flocking to big tourist attractions to check in, Zhou Mo prefers to find an ordinary small park, hold hands with his lover, and walk under the shade of trees by the lake. Occasionally, he will come across interesting spots, even a leaf or a wild flower, and take photos with them as souvenirs, which are all beautiful.
***
I spent most of the day strolling around the Summer Palace.
The two took a lot of photos.
Zhou Mo was tired and it was already past lunchtime.
Han Chen suggested finding a place to eat, then go back to rest, and then look for somewhere to go shopping tomorrow.
Zhou Mo complained, "My WeChat step count is already 15,000... I'm about to break my legs from walking."
Han Chen said, "You're just starting out. When I was doing my regular training, I was aiming for 10,000 steps a day."
Zhou Mo looked at her suspiciously: "Why are you walking so much?"
Han Chen: "All kinds of trivial matters you can't imagine. Going to pick up test orders, asking for test results, sometimes I have to shuttle back and forth between the outpatient clinic and the ward, or go downstairs to pick up a package for the teacher or the department."
Zhou Mo: "It's really hard to be a doctor."
Han Chen: "That's right. Only those who are not in it think that being a doctor is a good job."
In the eyes of many people, areas that have never been touched are always blooming with colorful flowers.
The same goes for doctors.
Only by being in it can one experience the feeling.
Han Chen's description was just words after all, and the pain in it was something only he had experienced from beginning to end.
"Every industry is difficult," Zhou Mo said. "It's better not to look at other industries with a filter."
"This is how it should be," Han Chen took Zhou Mo's hand.
The two were preparing to take a taxi back.
Han Chen's cell phone suddenly rang.
"Who is it?" Zhou Mo asked.
Han Chen took out his phone and took a look. "My second brother."
He swiped the answer button with one hand while holding Zhou Mo's hand with the other.
"Hello, second brother, what's going on?" Han Chen asked the person on the other end of the phone.
"It's okay," Han Ji said, "You're in the capital, is it convenient? Or should I get you a car?"
"No, just take a taxi," Han Chen said, "Don't tell grandpa that I'm in the capital. I'll be back in two days."
"What number?" Han Ji asked.
"Number six."
"Just staying home for one day?"
"Um."
"Grandpa will definitely be angry," Han Ji thought for a moment and said, "You should go back on the 5th. Staying for two days is better than one. It just so happens that I will be home on the 5th."
Han Chen was embarrassed. "Besides. Is there anything else?"
"No, I just suddenly remembered that your car was also confiscated by grandpa, and it's inconvenient for you to go out, so I wanted to ask you."
"Yeah. No, thank you."
"Okay, bye."
"goodbye."
The two brothers didn't talk about anything too personal and hung up the phone after they finished talking.
Han Chen put away his phone, but he felt conflicted.
Today is the 3rd, and I can only spend one more day with Zhou Mo tomorrow.
Time is really not enough.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Mo was a little worried when he saw Han Chen frowning.
"My second brother suggested that I go back on the 5th," Han Chen said. "He said he would be home on the 5th, too."
"Isn't that the day after tomorrow?"
"Um."
Zhou Mo's originally happy mood suddenly became a little gloomy.
"Never mind, let's eat first," Han Chen held Zhou Mo's hand tightly, as if to comfort and encourage her, "Where did Song Yan take you last time? Didn't you say the food there was delicious?"
"Xiangtan Garden, I wonder if you've heard of it."
"Of course," Han Chen said, "My fourth brother used to frequent that place. He even knew the owner. Want to go?"
"I want to," Zhou Mo said without hesitation.
I have to say, the last time Song Yan took her there to eat, she really became addicted to it.
I'm hungry now, and when I think about the snacks there, my mouth starts to water unconsciously.
Han Chen glanced at the time. "It doesn't open until 4pm over there. Can you handle it?"
Zhou Mo: "Yes. As long as I can eat delicious food, I won't mind starving to death."
Han Chen couldn't help but laugh and said, "Little greedy cat. How can you eat delicious food when you're starving?"
Zhou Mo: "Then I don't want to compromise either."
Han Chen gently scratched Zhou Mo's nose and said, "Greedy! Xiangtan Garden still has a few hours until it opens. You can't stay hungry all the time. Eat something. Or... I'll buy you some milk tea. You have to take some sugar at least. Be careful of hypoglycemia. Oh, and you still need to take medicine."
Zhou Mo suddenly realized, "Yes, I still need to take medicine."
Han Chen: "Let's go back first. After you finish taking the medicine, we'll come out again."
"Well," Zhou Mo asked a little unconfidently, "Do you think I'm too troublesome?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Take the medicine," Zhou Mo said, "If I weren't sick, we could continue shopping and there's no need to rush back."
"Are you stupid?" Han Chen smiled and rubbed Zhou Mo's head. He said with a smile: "What's so good about visiting? No matter how good the place is, it's not as important as your health."
"But this way, I can't have fun at all." Zhou Mo felt a little depressed.
"If you don't have enough fun, I'll have a chance to hang out with you again next time. If we're done, you'll definitely be tired and don't want to go out again," Han Chen said seriously, "With your health, you should get out more and exercise. Going to and from work all day, sitting in front of the computer, your body will eventually give out. It won't hurt to move more."
"Hey, now that you've officially become a regular employee, you're really brave. You even dare to lecture me."
"Otherwise, who told you not to obey?" Han Chen said, "To become a regular employee, you must have the confidence to do so. I am certified to work here."
What certificate?
The marriage certificate, of course!
Look at how beautiful he is.
Zhou Mo glanced at him gently. She bit her lip, but the corners of her lips rose unconsciously.
The two took a taxi back.
On the way, I happened to pass by a small Western-style building. There were shops and residential areas along the street. Because of its simple exterior style and consistency with the surrounding area, the small Western-style building was actually not conspicuous.
Han Chen pointed to the place and said, "My fifth brother's workplace."
Zhou Mo was stunned for a moment.
Her first reaction was, doesn’t that mean Qi Tan used to work here?
The taxi passed by so quickly that I couldn't see the several vertical plaques at the door clearly.
But this low-key style has a bit of the flavor of an administrative unit.
Generally, places like this have a plain and simple appearance and are built for outsiders to see. Only when you go in will you know that there is a lot going on inside.
Han Chen looked at her sideways, "Do you want to see my fifth brother? Now you only haven't seen the eldest brother and the fifth brother."
Zhou Mo was stunned for a moment: "Huh?"
Han Chen smiled and said, "It's okay. My fifth brother is even less talkative than me. He won't tell my grandfather and the others about your visit to the imperial capital."
Zhou Mo: "This... I'm a little scared."
