Chapter 53: Terror



Chapter 53: Terror

The garden show is on Saturday morning.

As soon as six o'clock arrived, the alarm clock rang and Lin You sat up straight.

She was used to living alone and always slept until she woke up naturally on weekends, but for her, a special day like today was worth sacrificing the time to wake up naturally.

After washing up, she poured a bowl of cat food for Hu Baoer, patted its head, and then changed her shoes and went out.

The venue of the horticultural exhibition is in the suburbs of Jinggang City. To get there from Shangcheng Community, you have to take the subway first and then transfer to the bus.

The map showed it would take an hour and a half to get there, but maybe she left early and avoided the rush hour, so it actually only took an hour.

The main entrance of the venue is a Chinese-style archway temporarily built with environmentally friendly materials. On both sides of the archway are various cartoon shapes made of colorful balloons.

It looks lively and festive.

A foreign company has also taken great pains to cater to the preferences of Chinese people.

When Lin You arrived, the staff had just finished preparing for the park to open.

She took the invitation letter and scanned the code to enter. The staff took a look at the gold-plated invitation letter, and there was a hint of inquiry in their eyes when they looked at her, and their attitude became more respectful.

"Miss, you are the first guest to come in today. Can we take a photo together?"

A handsome blond and blue-eyed man walked over with a work badge hanging around his neck. He spoke in standard English and was followed by several people who looked like senior executives of the company.

Lin You's eyes fell on his work badge.

Design Director of Osgam China, Sunday.

"Uh... okay."

Lin You's mouth twitched, shocked by both his position and his Chinese name.

It is difficult for any native Chinese to handle such a fresh and refined name.

Lin You stood in the middle, Zhou Ri stood on her left, and the others stood on both sides.

Several reporters were holding up cameras and taking photos, while one reporter was also reporting live:

"Today is the first horticultural exhibition held by the internationally renowned architectural firm Osgarmay at Jinggang City. Look, the first visitor has already entered the garden..."

Lin You maintained a stiff smile and suddenly regretted coming so early.

After taking the photos, Sunday led the group away. Before leaving, Sunday enthusiastically asked someone to give her an iced drink.

After getting a glass of iced drink, Lin You slowly began to browse the various exhibition areas.

After entering the first exhibition area, she found it difficult to walk.

As expected of a large company, the gardening design here is simply a work of art in terms of color and shape.

She was in it, wanting to appreciate every corner and record every design detail.

She had paper and pen in her backpack, and she grabbed a cold drink in one hand while reaching for her notebook with the other.

After taking out the notebook, I had no place to put the cold drink. Just as I was about to look for a trash can, a hand took the cold drink cup very naturally.

"I'll hold it for you."

Lin You raised her eyes and met Shi Jingyuan's light brown pupils.

Lin You was startled, "Why are you here?"

Shi Jingyuan had already prepared an excuse, "I hadn't planned to come. But then I thought, KSH Group has a new park project coming up, so I thought it would be a good idea to come and take a look."

"oh."

The invitation was originally for him, so of course he could come whenever he wanted.

Someone helped to hold the cup, and Lin You freed his hands to start writing and drawing.

Shi Jingyuan followed her and saw her taking notes seriously in her notebook, so he asked casually.

"You like these gardens?"

Lin You discovered a small detail and bent down to look carefully. Hearing this, she didn't look up, but just responded faintly.

Shi Jingyuan followed her example and took a closer look. It was just an iron flowerpot and he couldn't really tell what it was.

He then asked, "How do I take notes in a notebook? Aren't photos allowed here?"

Lin You frowned slightly, turned to look at him, and explained with a bit of impatience.

“What I record is my feelings, which cannot be captured by taking a photo.”

"And Mr. Shi, there are so many exhibition areas here. Why don't you go visit other places?"

She openly chased him away, as if she was annoyed that he was disturbing her.

When being disliked, Jingyuan: "..."

He had just said two sentences when she rejected him.

Do you like these gardens so much?

Shi Jingyuan's eyes were deep, indicating that he would not ask any more questions to disturb her, so she stopped chasing him away.

Shi Jingyuan followed Lin You closely.

I watched her take one step at a time and look around, and she couldn't leave the exhibition area for half an hour.

She looked at the exquisitely designed gardens, sometimes ecstatic, sometimes full of confusion, and her expression was very wonderful.

Especially her eyes, which were filled with a bright light, a kind of madness and joy that was almost obsessive.

She made him feel like he had discovered a new world, just like a person who had half stepped out of the mortal world and was pulled back into the mundane world by this crazy obsession.

She seemed to come alive.

As he watched, Shi Jingyuan felt his mouth dry, so he lowered his head and took a sip of the cold drink in his hand.

The cold drink was almost finished and the straw made a gurgling sound.

Lin You turned around when he heard the voice, and his expression froze.

"Toshi... this is my water."

Shi Jingyuan came to his senses and realized what he had done. He was so shocked that he choked on a mouthful of water and couldn't stop coughing.

Having seen big scenes before, Mr. Shi finally adjusted his mentality and cleared his throat.

"Sorry, I'll go buy you another drink."

Is it a glass of water that she cares about?

"No."

Lin You said this dryly, turned around and continued to look at the exhibition, but after that, she always unconsciously glanced at Shi Jingyuan's lips.

She couldn't help but think of the two times he kissed her...

Shi Jingyuan saw that her cheeks were a little red, and he looked up at the sun that had climbed halfway into the sky.

"I'm leaving for a while, don't go too far."

Without waiting for Lin You's agreement, he strode away.

After he left, she patted her red cheeks and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lin You, be more reserved! No matter how handsome he is, you can't stare at his mouth..."

She muttered to herself, but unfortunately, this self-warning had no effect.

*

It took Lin You an hour and a half from the time he entered the door to now, and he had only just finished visiting one exhibition area.

The exhibition areas are very close to each other, less than ten meters apart.

She walked forward a few steps and arrived at the entrance of the second exhibition area.

At this point in time, more and more people have come to the exhibition, and the second exhibition area is the highlight of the exhibition, so more people are gathered here.

The garden exhibition area designed with the railway as the background has a very cygpunk style, which is very fashionable and photogenic.

Lin You followed the crowd and walked forward. Looking up, he saw a small train imitating a light rail rushing past his head.

The roar of the train seemed to pull everyone into another world.

Everyone cheered in excitement and surprise.

Those who want to take pictures take pictures, and those who want to record videos record videos.

Only Lin You looked as if she had seen something terrifying. Her face turned pale instantly and she began to scream in a daze.
