Chapter 120 [120] Unfathomable.
The Netherlands is a country full of windmills. Along the canals, there are endless seas of tulips, hyacinths and daffodils in full bloom.
The red-tiled houses of Giethoorn stand under the blue sky, the lush branches and leaves are reflected on the water, the lake silhouettes, the Cathedral of Saint Servatius, and the Castle of De Haar are all as colorful as oil paintings.
Shen Yu's trip was to investigate the import and export trade here. He heard that the government already had plans to strive to join the WTO and would definitely join the WTO in a few years. He also needed to import two machines for the crystal factory.
Seeing these beautiful scenery, he couldn't help but think of Tang Yuanyuan.
She will definitely like it here.
The world is big and full of beautiful places. After she finishes her studies, they will see more of the world together.
Shen Yu took a lot of photos and brought them back to China.
He told the driver to take Huaihai Road. Luckily, the bell rang and students came out of the school gate in droves.
Tang Yuanyuan was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and jeans, with her long hair tied into a ponytail. She ran very fast with her long legs, holding a lollipop in her mouth. She was as happy as a bird flapping its wings. Her outstanding temperament crushed the people around her. Shen Yu saw her at a glance.
The words to stop the car were on the tip of his tongue, but Shen Yu restrained himself. He watched the person flash by. The person in the rearview mirror became smaller and smaller until he disappeared completely. His car also turned.
He waited until the final exam before calling Tang Yuanyuan and asked her to come to his house to pick up the photos.
Tang Yuanyuan brought Shen Yu's photo over, took her own photo, sat cross-legged on the carpet and started flipping through the photos. They looked beautiful!
She is so beautiful.
She swung her legs proudly, "I didn't expect that I'm still a beautiful woman."
Shen Yu saw her legs shaking with joy from the corner of his eye, and curled his lips slightly: "I look good too, we can be considered a handsome man and a beautiful woman."
Uncle Hua, who brought the fruit plate, silently covered his ears and left.
Shen Yu pulled out a photo of a sunrise and said, "Photographing the sunrise from a mountaintop is a truly breathtaking experience. My family owns a hotel at the top of Sheshan Mountain, with a courtyard facing the mountaintop that's not open to the public. Are you interested in photographing the sunrise there?"
Tang Yuanyuan was more than happy to take pictures of the sunrise, as it was a fiery red. She had wanted to take pictures of the sunrise for a long time, but climbing the mountain alone at night was too dangerous, and Hu Yue was unwilling to climb the mountain, and she was reluctant to tire her mother, so she had never taken pictures of the sunrise until now.
Shen Yu said, "Climbing in the middle of the night is too tiring. We can go the night before and stay overnight. The next day, we can sleep until 5:45. That way, we can open our eyes and take photos without getting too tired. What time is convenient for you?"
Tang Yuanyuan was very satisfied with this arrangement. She had originally wanted to fly to see her mother, so a day or two later wouldn't be a problem. "How about we go now? We're seniors, and our summer vacation is only half a month long. I'm going to go see my mother tomorrow and stay with her for half a month."
Of course Shen Yu had no problem with that: "Then do you want to go back and pack some clothes or something?"
Tang Yuanyuan nodded. Shen Yu had a special room, so he didn't need anything. He just picked up the key and left.
Tang Yuanyuan didn't want to leave Shen Yu downstairs, so she invited him to go upstairs to get familiar with the house.
"Would you like something to drink? We have coffee and juice at home."
"No, you clean up yours."
This flat is decorated in a bright European style, mainly in a bright and dreamy milky white color. Tang Yuanyuan's room is a princess room, with dolls on the bed and sofa.
Shen Yu picked up the bunny doll and brought it close to his nose. There was a faint scent of perfume on it, with top notes of cedar wood, sweet orange berries, and base notes of vanilla. It was obvious that the owner held it every day, which was why it had acquired the fragrance.
Still a little girl at heart.
Tang Yuanyuan quickly packed a set of clothes and pajamas in the room. Summer clothes are light and thin, so they only need to fit into a small backpack. She hung up the camera and came out of the room holding the doll.
Shen Yu's eyes fell on her big, white, plump doll: "Is it for sleeping?"
Tang Yuanyuan: "Does she look like my mom? When I hold her, it feels like my mom sleeps with me every day."
Shen Yu knew that Zhang Lancao had been spending most of her time in recent years developing markets in other places, and she was often alone at home.
She is independent and brave, but she also has a fragile side. Shen Yu summed it up in his heart and said, "If you are scared or have a nightmare, you can call me."
"Um."
Shen Yu suspected that she would not hit him, but was just dealing with it casually. She was actually not the kind of person who would easily cause trouble to others.
But at this stage, he has to consider her college entrance examination and cannot say it too clearly.
"By the way, do you like this European-style decoration? If you own a house in the future and decorate it yourself, will you still choose this style?"
Tang Yuanyuan shook her head: "It must be changed to a different style, otherwise it will become just a house."
Shen Yu asked: "What kind of house do you want for your next home?"
Tang Yuanyuan: "Chinese style, I think the one you have is pretty good too."
Shen Yu had some thoughts in his mind.
Both of them were in good physical condition and they reached the top of Sheshan in no time. Shen Yu showed Tang Yuanyuan around the hotel and asked the waiter to bring the menu.
Shen Yu pushed the menu in front of Tang Yuanyuan: "What do you want to eat?"
Tang Yuanyuan didn't want to waste her brain: "As long as there is meat, it's fine. I can eat meat from any cuisine. Just take your pick."
Shen Yu ordered some sweet Shanghainese dishes and some slightly spicy meat dishes to go with the rice, and asked the waiter to place the rice directly in the yard. The fiery red sun hung on the mountain line, and the thin clouds were dyed the same pink as peach blossoms.
The sun didn't set until we finished dinner.
Tang Yuanyuan planned to watch a DVD to relax. "The stall owner said it's the latest comedy in Hong Kong. Do you want to watch it with us?"
Of course Shen Yu had no objection. He took the disc from her backpack, squatted down, put it into the VCR, turned off the switch, and the disc was automatically locked in.
Pirated discs are rampant these days, and there are many that are sold under the guise of genuine products. Unfortunately, this disc of Tang Yuanyuan's was the one that the vendor had mixed in with the others.
The picture on the TV popped up, Shen Yu's pupils shrank, he knelt on one knee and turned off the VCR. Looking back, Tang Yuanyuan was drinking juice with her head down, and didn't notice anything unusual here.
He wiped his forehead and found that he was sweating all of a sudden. Fortunately, she didn't see it. He pressed the switch, took out the disc inside, and planned to ask the waiter to get some serious discs to watch.
Tang Yuanyuan came over, biting the straw: "Why don't you put it in?"
Shen Yu put the disc behind him and said, "The hotel should have other movies. Let's watch another one."
Tang Yuanyuan looked behind him suspiciously: "What's wrong? Is this movie not good?"
Shen Yu put his hands behind his back again: "It doesn't look good. I'll go change it."
Tang Yuanyuan obediently stepped aside, but when Shen Yu passed by her, she grabbed the light piece and pulled it away.
Shen Yu felt his hands were empty and nervously reached out, "Give it to me, you can't look at this."
"I just want to watch new movies. I've seen the old ones too many times."
Tang Yuanyuan hid the disc behind her back and refused to hand it over. Shen Yu pinched his forehead with a headache and said with a red face, "That one is not suitable for children. It's not a comedy."
Tang Yuanyuan felt a burn on her fingertips and the disc fell to the ground. Shen Yu picked up the disc and broke it into pieces before taking it out.
"I told you I was itching to do it, I told you I was itching to do it." Tang Yuanyuan clapped her hands in regret. "Curiosity kills the cat, it's true."
Shen Yu soon came back with another stack of discs. Tang Yuanyuan chose a comedy that she had never seen before. The cover looked funny, and she opened the snacks and ate them like a little squirrel.
Suddenly, Shen Yu stood up and said, "I remembered I have something else to do. I'll go back to my room first."
Tang Yuanyuan found him baffled. After the others left, the male and female protagonists who had just been arguing excitedly were now hugging each other and kissing each other.
"Pretty serious," Tang Yuanyuan muttered as he chewed the spicy strips. Thinking back, his ears seemed to have turned red just now. "Could it be that he's never been in a relationship at this age?"
Mr. Chen is so extravagant that he even doesn't let his stepmother go. Could Shen Yu be so innocent?
She suddenly felt curious.
Next door, Shen Yu drank a bottle of purified water in one gulp. When he thought about what Tang Yuanyuan was looking at on the other side of the wall, he felt his ears getting hot.
Has she ever thought that there might be these shots when watching the video with herself?
Shen Yu felt that she probably didn't expect it, because she originally wanted to watch a comedy.
Shen Yu took a book from the bookshelf and opened it, trying to calm down. However, he couldn't read a single word for half an hour, so he had to go to the yard to look at the stars.
At night, the mist condensed into dew, the mountain breeze was chilly, crickets and katydids chirped softly in the grass, and a crescent moon appeared in the sky. He calmed down a little, picked a leaf, wiped off the moisture, put it in his mouth, and blew it into a melodious tune. Tang Yuanyuan turned off the video recorder, opened the window, and rested his arms on the windowsill. He listened to the song quietly, clapping softly, with a star-like glint in his eyes: "You know so much."
Shen Yu's Adam's apple rolled. He had learned piano as a child, but stopped after entering junior high school. He could only play for his own amusement, not as well as a professional musician. "Does it sound good?"
“It sounds nice.”
"That's not a compliment, is it? I only studied piano for a few years."
"My mom made me learn piano when I was little," Tang Yuanyuan said. "I have absolutely no talent for it. I can't even understand how to practice. You play this beautifully."
Shen Yu felt a little happy, and she said she was great.
He has been a child of other people's families since he was young, and he grew up being praised. He has long been accustomed to it. That is his requirement for himself, and he does not take those compliments to heart. That is the level he should have.
For some reason, he was very happy with the praise coming out of Tang Yuanyuan's mouth.
"I'm going to go to bed."
"Well," Shen Yu felt a little surprised, "you've been tired all afternoon and have to get up early tomorrow. You should go to bed early."
"good evening."
"good evening."
Tang Yuanyuan closed the window again. Shen Yu looked at the closed doors and windows, feeling a little lost.
It seemed that there was no topic between them except photos. She went up the mountain with him just to take photos and treated him as a partner.
He is older than her, will she think of herself as someone of another generation? He couldn't think about it, and when he thought about it, he felt a little flustered.
Feelings are really strange. Just now he was as happy as if he had eaten honey, but now he feels a little nervous.
He took out a cigarette from his pocket and took a long puff. The slight sense of loss in his heart was relieved a little as the tobacco filtered through his lungs and heart.
He didn't know what was wrong with him. Sometimes he was very optimistic, and suddenly he became very unconfident.
Sometimes I feel very close to her, and sometimes I feel that she is as unpredictable as the wind.
This was totally unlike him. He had never been so uncertain about anything. It seemed as if all his calmness and rationality had failed, and he couldn't analyze anything.
