Chapter 66
Ruan Yan then talked about how he came up with the idea of riding a bicycle.
"I mentioned it to Gu Jing a few days ago when I was chatting with him. He even asked me if I was interested. I thought it was a good idea."
Ming Yunle asked: "Gu Jing bought a bicycle?"
Ruan Yan shook his head and said, "Not yet, but it will be soon. I'm debating whether to buy one. Riding a bicycle is nice."
Ming Yunle said, "Hearing you say that, I seem to be a little interested too. Should I buy a bicycle too?"
They didn't just talk about it, after that they looked at it online for a while.
They looked at it for a long time and asked Gu Jing for his opinion. Finally, Ruan Yan collected one and said, "This is it for now, but it may change in the future."
Ming Yunle: "If we want to buy it, let's buy the same one."
The lights were turned off, but there were some things Ruan Yan hadn't figured out yet. When he was about to ask Ming Yunle, he found that Ming Yunle had fallen asleep.
Ruan Yan looked at the time. It was already 11:10.
Forget it, let him think about it carefully first.
Ruan Yan began to think again whether to travel first or buy a bicycle first, and what kind of bicycle to buy.
The result of his wild thoughts was that Ruan Yan couldn't get up the next day.
Ming Yunle finished washing up and read the newspaper downstairs before going upstairs. He looked at the person lying motionless on the bed and asked, "Aren't you going to get up?"
Ruan Yan was still motionless. Ming Yunle moved over and saw that Ruan Yan was sleeping very soundly. He didn't hear what Ming Yunle said.
Ming Yunle thought about it and decided that Ruan Yan didn’t have anything to do today.
If something happened, Ruan Yan would definitely set the alarm, so it didn't matter if he stayed in bed, so Ming Yunle didn't call him.
Ming Yunle waited until he had breakfast, finished his walk outside, and drank a cup of coffee before he saw Ruan Yan coming downstairs.
Ruan Yan saw Ming Yunle, said "Good morning" and asked, "Have you finished eating?"
"Yeah." Ming Yunle said, "I also made breakfast for you, but it might be cold. Please heat it up."
"It's okay." Ruan Yan walked downstairs and saw that Ming Yunle's coffee cup was empty. He said, "You've been up for a long time, haven't you?"
"Um."
"It seems I got up too late this time."
Ming Yunle looked at the time. It wasn't that late actually, just a lot later than his usual wake-up time.
Ming Yunle asked, "Why are you so sleepy today? Are you having insomnia?"
Ruan Yan walked to the front of the dining table, sat down, picked up the food, and said, "I was thinking about the bicycle last night, and I couldn't help but think about it for a while."
Ming Yunle felt somewhat surprised and asked, "After thinking about it for so long, it seems you have made up your mind?"
Although they looked at it for a long time yesterday and collected it, they have not yet made up their minds whether to buy it or not.
"Well, let's buy it."
At this point, Ruan Yan yawned again. "Actually, I don't know what I was thinking about last night. I just kept thinking about the bicycle. Actually, I was thinking the same thing today."
Ming Yunle asked, "Perhaps you haven't even realized how much you're looking forward to it?"
"Hmm...I don't know either."
Ruan Yan asked, "Do you have any plans for today?"
Ming Yunle shook his head: "Not yet, I just have a general idea."
"What idea?"
Ming Yunle pointed at the sandwich Ruan Yan was holding and said, "I'll tell you after you finish eating. You've been holding it for a long time."
Ruan Yan looked at the sandwich in his hand, smiled, and started eating.
After breakfast, Ruan Yan felt more energetic and they talked about bicycles for a while.
Ruan Yan planned to go cycling again after returning from T City, and Ming Yunle had no objection.

The five of them often got together to discuss travel, and finally they set a date at the beginning of next month.
The beginning of May is actually later than they expected, but this time is also more suitable for travel.
Ming Yunle was in Xia Chen's villa. It was only a few days before they set off, and they were discussing the final matters.
After discussing for a while, they all felt a little thirsty, so they went to the bar to make a cup of coffee.
This time, Ming Yunle's latte art was a little more successful than last time. Ming Yunle looked at the latte art in the cup and felt very pleased. He handed the cup to Xia Chen.
Then he made himself another drink, which was about the same level as before.
Although he was pleased, Ming Yunle thought he still had to continue practicing.
Xia Chen said: "It's been so long, are you still practicing?"
Ming Yunle said, "I don't really practice it specifically. I just drink coffee regularly, so I always make latte art. Now I can say I've made some progress."
Xia Chen said: "Then I will try it later."
Three days after the conversation, the five people boarded a plane to City T.
They did not book a hotel this time and stayed together in Qin Bai's holiday villa.
They arrived in batches. Ming Yunle, Ruan Yan and Qin Bai arrived in the morning, and Xia Chen and Gu Jing arrived in the afternoon.
Qin Bai's villa is very big. Even if five people live in it at once, it is still very spacious.
When they all got together, it was dinner time. They planned to have dinner downstairs first and talk about other things later.
Xia Chen was very happy during the dinner. After all, he was not sure whether he could come together until last month. Now that everyone is here, it can be considered a perfect start.
Although they had a meal together, it didn't last long.
Because we had to go out and play the next day, we all went upstairs to rest early.
Ming Yunle and Ruan Yan decided what to bring with them when they go out tomorrow.
Ming Yunle asked, "You're not missing anything, are you?"
"Yeah." Ruan Yan had already put away his backpack and said, "Everything is ready."
The process of this trip was similar to what they had imagined. Although everyone started out together, it was only during the first four days.
After all, their preferences were not exactly the same, and they each had their own places they wanted to go, so they naturally separated.
Except for the largest park and the woods, the places Ruan Yan and Ming Yunle went this time were completely different from last time.
Ming Yunle looked at the scenery before him and said to Ruan Yan, "Do you remember what I said the last time I came to T City? It's okay to have regrets. This will give you something to look forward to next time. Now is the time to make up for those regrets."
Ruan Yan hadn't forgotten either. He sighed with emotion, "Actually, we didn't even think about coming back then. I guess fate has its own plan."
The time when their trip ended was still different.
Qin Bai left first, followed by Gu Jing and Xia Chen, and Ming Yunle and Ruan Yan left last.
At the airport, Ming Yunle couldn't help but think about everything that had happened in the past few days and asked, "Do you think we'll have a chance to come again in the future?"
"I think so." Ruan Yan said, "Didn't Qin Bai mention that everyone would come again if they had the chance? And I see everyone is having a great time."
Ming Yunle said, "I think Qin Bai will still come next year if he's free. If not, he won't buy a vacation villa."
After returning to City A, Ming Yunle's first thing was to select the newly taken photos and print them out.
He put the pictures in one by one, including the parks in T City in spring and many popular places in T City that he had never been to before.
This time they took more photos than last time.
Ming Yunle stopped playing after a while and didn't continue.
Because he found that the album was full.
Ruan Yan was beside him. After seeing this, he said, "I didn't expect that the photo album would be filled up at this time."
Ming Yunle: "It seems my premonition is still very accurate."
"So, shall we go buy a photo album now?"
Ming Yunle: "No need."
After saying that, Ming Yunle went upstairs. Not long after, he came down carrying a paper bag.
Ming Yunle sat on the sofa and took out a brand new photo album.
Ruan Yan said, "So you've already prepared it. When did you buy it?"
Ming Yunle said, "I bought it before I left because I thought I might not be able to put it down."
Ruan Yan looked at the photo album and said, "This album is different from the last one."
"I actually thought about buying the same album as the last one, since I already found one that was identical. But then I didn't think it was necessary, and since I already had my eye on this one, I just bought this one."
Ming Yunle didn't rush to put the photos into the new album. Instead, he opened the first page of the first album, selected for a while, and then filled in the last blank space.
Then he filled it with new photos to fill in the places where he had taken out.
Finally, Ming Yunle closed the album and said, "Now it's complete."
Ming Yunle put this photo album aside and opened a new one. As usual, he left a page blank and then started putting photos in it from the second page.
The new album only has three or four pages and no photos left.
Ruan Yan said, "This album is smaller than the previous one. It might be full by this time next year."
Ming Yunle said: "Based on the frequency I take photos, it may not even reach next year."
Ming Yunle looked at the photo album and said, "Let's continue to accumulate memories."
Ruan Yan: "Okay."
