Yes, Dali has a spring-like climate all year round, and few guesthouses are equipped with air conditioning. But when it gets cold occasionally, it's enough to make tourists from other places question their existence.
...
Ten minutes later, Ping Ge, who was in Thailand, sent me a video call.
I answered the call, and the first thing I saw was a beach covered in tropical plants; on the beach, there were women sleeping with their backs bare; and there were also groups of muscular men playing beach volleyball under the scorching sun...
I felt even colder in Dali and couldn't help but shiver. At that moment, Brother Ping spoke up and asked me, "How is it? Much more comfortable than in Dali, right?"
"Definitely! You're a shrewd person; you'll go wherever you feel comfortable!"
“You can’t blame me for this. You tell me, haven’t I asked you to come to Phuket with me more than once?”
"If I were as carefree as you, I wouldn't be in this state now... So, what do you want from me?"
Brother Ping smiled and replied, "When you were speculating on shops in Jiulongju, you must have accumulated a lot of high-quality customers, right? ... I want to rent out my sea-view villa, monthly or yearly rent, I'm fine with either. Could you help me post it on your WeChat Moments?"
"Hey, send me some photos of the villa and the surrounding area later, I'll help you promote it... By the way, how much are you planning to rent it for per month?"
"30,000 RMB a month...that's a great deal! In Dali, you can't rent such a big villa for 30,000 RMB!"
"That's right."
I echoed her sentiment, and then images of Patong Beach and that villa flashed through my mind again… I had an idea: I wanted to invite Yang Sisi to Phuket for a few days as well. I could go to Shanghai to see her first, and then fly directly from Shanghai to Phuket.
During this period, I have been feeling extremely depressed because of starting my own business. I desperately need a trip like this to adjust my mindset, and Yang Sisi and I need it even more.
After making up my mind, I quickly asked Brother Ping, "Can your villa be subdivided for rent?"
"What's the meaning?"
“I’m thinking of going there with a friend in a while… If we can share a room, could you reserve one for me?”
"Oh, it must be your girlfriend, right? You can't be this close if she's not your girlfriend."
A little embarrassed, I quickly corrected myself: "I misspoke, two rooms would be best..."
"Come on, kid... If you really want to come, I'll reserve the best suite with the ocean view for you... Don't let my age fool you, I'm still a master at making things happen... Haha!"
I didn't respond to Ping Ge immediately. Instead, I turned to look at the street lamp outside the window that was getting wet in the rain, and then some images came to mind.
The first time Yang Sisi and I went to Thailand was to find Ye Zhi's whereabouts. Not only did I suffer terribly, but she suffered terribly with me... It's time to make it up to her.
This time, if we go to Thailand together, let's put aside all the sad things and just eat, drink, and have fun with her...
I know that besides Patong Beach, there's also Karon Beach, which is relatively quieter...
We sat on Karon Beach, I drank beer, she ate snacks, and at the end of the sea was a drowsy sunset and a colorful sky.
