Chapter 81: Dating Daily
Xu Jiangcuo didn't give Song Lehan any chance and dragged her to Eyue Lake.
Although Eyue Lake is called a lake, it is actually a small river flowing down from the top of the mountain.
This place was very desolate in the early years, but later it was developed into a tourist attraction. Most people come here for a stroll after traveling in Yunnan and Guizhou, so there are not many people.
Eyue Lake is about an hour and a half drive from the village, which is not far.
After getting off the car, Xu Jiangcuo took Song Lehan and walked on the gravel road.
Song Lehan glanced at the surrounding scenery, then turned to ask Xu Jiangcuo, "Did you bring me here for a date?"
She thought they would go to the mall, watch a movie, eat some delicious food, and chat casually.
"What's wrong? Are you disappointed?"
It was almost noon and the sun was a little strong, so Xu Jiangcuo kindly held out an umbrella for him.
Song Lehan shook his head, "No, this place is also good."
Two or three people passed by them. Song Lehan saw that they were all carrying small bags and wearing sun hats. Their clothes and appearance clearly showed that they were not locals.
Song Lehan and Xu Jiangcuo walked forward hand in hand. When they saw a sign for a scenic spot, she realized that this was a tourist attraction.
Come to think of it, she has never really traveled formally.
After passing through the circular archway, the two continued walking along the gravel path. The surrounding area was no longer bare, but now had many tall trees, like a dense forest, and it was very cool inside.
After walking a few steps, Xu Jiangcuo pointed to a small pavilion not far away and said, "Go over there. I brought some food. Let's eat first."
Song Lehan laughed, "I almost thought you were going to starve me."
"How could that be?" Xu Jiangcuo patted the backpack behind him. "Everything is in the bag. You definitely won't starve."
Song Lehan glanced at his bag, which was bulging with stuff, and must have contained a lot of things.
The pavilion is specially provided for tourists and contains stone tables and stone chairs.
"Wow, it's so cool!"
Song Lehan stood in the pavilion, feeling the cool breeze even without any wind. Turning his gaze, he saw a stream flowing beside the pavilion, surrounded by flowers of different colors, which was particularly beautiful.
"It's really nice here." Song Lehan sat on a stone bench, took out his cell phone, and took a selfie with the stream and flowers as the background.
Xu Jiangcuo glanced at her, smiled, and placed the food on the stone table.
There are chicken breasts, fruit and vegetable salads, sandwiches, and some small snacks.
Plus, he made his own herbal tea.
After he had arranged the food, Song Lehan took another photo of the food and asked, "Did you prepare all this yourself?"
"Yeah." Xu Jiangcuo put his backpack aside, sat down, and introduced them one by one: "Aren't you trying to control your weight, so I made steamed chicken breast, as well as fruits and vegetables. I made the herbal tea according to the instructions on the Internet, and it tasted very good."
Song Lehan unscrewed the can and took a sip. It was refreshing and a little sweet. "Not bad!"
Putting down the herbal tea, Song Lehan looked at Xu Jiangcuo with sparkling eyes, "How come you are so good now? Before, you needed me to teach you how to do it."
Her eyes are watery and her bulging eye bags make her eyes look big and cute.
Xu Jiangcuo imitated her, shaking his head from side to side. "I don't know either. Could it be that I suddenly got it after your guidance?"
Seeing him like this, Song Lehan laughed and joked: "You are such a smart imitator!"
"Yeah, yeah, I'm learning specifically from you."
Xu Jiangcuo handed her the chicken breast and they ate and chatted.
Song Lehan asked: "So what are your plans for today?"
"Let's just walk around here, take some pictures, and then we'll go home."
Song Lehan tilted his head, not believing it was that simple, "That's it?"
Xu Jiangcuo nodded: "Yeah, that's it."
"All right then."
Hearing Song Lehan's somewhat reluctant agreement, Xu Jiangcuo couldn't help but chuckle, "Why are you so reluctant to agree?"
He raised his eyes to look at her, "Do you think I have a surprise for you?"
Song Lehan would never admit it, "I just asked casually, don't make blind guesses."
"Okay." Xu Jiangcuo nodded, with a smile on his face.
After the two men finished their meal, they rested in the pavilion for a while and then continued on their way.
As the name suggests, Eyue Lake is a place where the stream winds around and around to form a full moon. The scenic area has planted flowers in the full moon, which is very suitable for taking pictures. Many tourists come here to take a photo surrounded by flowers.
Xu Jiangcuo took Song Lehan and walked all the way, and finally stopped at the place where they took photos.
"This is where Eyue Lake first appears. Many people check in and take photos here." Xu Jiangcuo introduced it to her and pointed to the plank road next to it. "From here, you can walk to the center of the flower cluster."
Song Lehan looked at the middle of Eyue Lake, where several couples were taking pictures.
"Hello, can you take a picture for us?" someone came forward and asked.
Song Lehan agreed with a smile.
Taking the phone, she saw the young couple on the screen standing in a bunch of flowers, hugging each other, looking particularly sweet.
Can she and Xu Jiangcuo capture this feeling in their films?
Once this thought appeared, she couldn't get rid of it and it occupied her mind for a long time.
"Wow, these are beautiful photos. Can you take a few more for us?"
Looking at the young couple's pleading eyes, Song Lehan agreed.
Xu Jiangcuo, who was watching the situation, interjected, "Um... could you guys take a few pictures for us later?"
"Of course!" they agreed quickly.
The young couple went back to the flowers. While waiting for them to strike a pose, Song Lehan glanced at Xu Jiangcuo and said proudly, "I didn't say I wanted to take a photo with you."
After all, Xu Jiangcuo is pursuing her now, so of course she has to be a little cool.
"Then please take a photo with me." Xu Jiangcuo lowered his voice and touched Song Lehan with his arm, with a hint of coquettishness.
Song Lehan didn't say anything, just smiled happily.
"Take a few pictures now that you're here." Xu Jiangcuo's tone softened. It didn't sound like persuasion, but more like he was cooperating with Song Lehan to make her happier.
The young couple posed and called out to Song Lehan, "We're ready! We can take pictures!"
Song Lehan made an OK gesture to them, then took a step to the side, putting some distance between himself and Xu Jiangcuo.
Seeing this, Xu Jiangcuo followed and stuck close to her.
Like a pair of porcelain dolls stuck together.
After taking many photos in a row, the young couple put away their phones with satisfaction, "Come on, it's our turn."
Xu Jiangcuo took the initiative to hand them his mobile phone, then took Song Lehan's hand and walked into the flower cluster.
The young couple was very enthusiastic and guided the two to perform the moves.
Song Lehan put one hand on her waist and wanted to lean on Xu Jiangcuo, but he was holding her arm and couldn't move at all.
"That's not it." She protested, "You don't have to hug me, just stand still and I'll lean on you, that's all."
Xu Jiangcuo was very obedient and put down his hand.
"OK, let's change the moves!"
Song Lehan patted Xu Jiangcuo's shoulder and motioned him to look at him.
