Chapter 464: To South City 1
The south city is as spring-like all year round as before. The banyan trees, evergreens and other trees on the street still raise their green faces and flutter their green braids.
On the kapok tree, fiery flowers bloomed, and the stamens were as dazzling red as flames.
Just looking at the flowers, they are as red as fire, as if spring has arrived.
Just looking at the leaves, seeing them wither and fall, one might think that autumn has arrived.
Flowers bloom and leaves fall, flowers are red and leaves are yellow, flowers smile on branches, and leaves fall in the wind.
Suddenly I realized that it was neither spring nor autumn, but a cold winter.
The winter in the south city is particularly interesting. While the north is covered with snow, it is full of greenery here. People in the north are shivering even when wearing sweaters and cotton-padded jackets, but here they only wear autumn clothes and a stylish coat on the outside.
Yike was wearing a cotton-padded sweater when she got on the train. Now she hid the cotton-padded sweater in her backpack, put on a pink sweater, tied a white scarf, and walked happily on the streets of Guangzhou with her head held high.
On the streets of Guangzhou, many men are wearing Zhongshan suits, work suits and Lenin suits in green, gray, black and blue.
After getting off the train, Ziyi and Yike did not rush to find a place to stay, but instead took the Ikarus diesel bus purchased from abroad to Aiqun Daxia. Aiqun Building is a high-end hotel with a grand appearance. It is not only one of the characteristics of South City, but also an important place for foreign-related activities.
The main purpose of Yike and Ziyi coming here is to see if there is any chance to secretly contact foreigners and see if they can buy advanced equipment from abroad.
Yike and Ziyi are destined to be disappointed. Now that the country's doors are closed, it is not so easy to buy foreign equipment.
Ziyi and Yike found nothing and had to call their future brother-in-law.
When Han Yuan received the call and heard Yi Ke say that she was now at the Aiqun Building Hotel, he almost screamed "How is this possible?"
"Brother Han, what's wrong with you?" Yi Ke hadn't heard his voice for a long time and thought he had hung up the phone.
"Sister Yike, wait a minute, I'll pick you up right away. You can cancel your room and come live at my house." Han Yuan said immediately.
"Okay, we'll wait for you then."
As soon as I hung up the phone, I paid the bill. It was just a few words, and it cost five dollars and thirty cents, which was much more expensive than making a phone call outside.
Yike and Ziyi checked out of the room and stood outside waiting. Soon, Han Yuan got off the bus and ran towards Yike and Ziyi. "Sister Yike, Ziyi, I didn't expect you two to come. I'm so happy." Han Yuan's face was full of joy, and he patted Ziyi's shoulder affectionately.
Ziyi smiled: "Brother Han."
"Brother Han, you came so quickly. Is your workplace not far from here?" Yi Ke said happily.
"It's not far. You said you were coming but you didn't call me so I could pick you up at the station. And you stayed in this hotel? This is the most expensive hotel in Yangcheng."
"Haha, I just want to come and experience it and see what those foreigners look like."
"Did you see it? Isn't it very strange? But you definitely can't understand what they are saying."
"Hmm, I don't understand."
Yi Kecai didn't tell him that he not only understood it, but could also speak it.
"Let's go to my house first. If my mom knew you were coming, she would be so happy that she would go crazy."
"Be careful, your mother might hear you and beat you."
"Let's go. You'll have to take the bus. My dad has driven to work. In the afternoon, when my dad's car comes back, I'll drive you out to play."
The three of them got off the bus and walked for about seven or eight minutes. Han Yuan pointed to an English country-style villa not far away and said, "That's my home. My mom must be at home. You guys walk behind me. I want to give her a surprise."
Yike and Ziyi both nodded, indicating that they were willing to cooperate with his childish behavior.
As soon as you see the light yellow two-story Western-style building, hidden under the lush shade of flowers and trees, full of pastoral charm, you will like it.
"Brother Han, this building is so beautiful."
"Yeah, you think it's beautiful, too. I think so too. When I told my dad this, do you know what he said?"
"Haha, uncle will definitely agree."
"Young man, don't have hedonistic thoughts. This is not good. It doesn't matter whether the house is beautiful or not, as long as it is liveable." Han Yuan imitated his father's tone and said.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Look, look, you think it's funny, but I was criticized for more than ten minutes at that time."
Han Yuan opened the gate and the three of them walked in one after another. The courtyard inside the gate was full of flowers and trees, and the pointed roof on the left side of the main building attracted Yi Ke's attention.
"Sister Yike, let me tell you something in secret. You will be absolutely safe if you live in this building. Even if there are bombings from planes and artillery in the sky, you don't have to worry because there is an air-raid shelter underground."
Yike's eyes widened. This rich man was really afraid of death. The air-raid shelter was built downstairs. However, when he thought of the war-torn era, he felt strange again.
Han Yuan entered the western-style building and saw a woman sitting on the sofa in the living room. Who else could it be but Congfei?
"Mom, I'm back." Han Yuan shouted.
"Well, I'm back, so why are you making such a fuss?" Congfei said without raising his head while looking at the newspaper in his hand.
"Mom, your son is back." Han Yuan shouted again.
"When you come back..." Congfei raised her head impatiently and was about to say something to her son, but then her voice stopped.
She saw Yi Ke and Zi Yi behind her son, stood up suddenly, threw the newspaper in her hand, rushed over in three or two steps, and pushed Han Yuan in front of her away.
Han Yuan made a bitter face, watching his mother grabbing Yi Ke's hand in ecstasy, "Oh my God, my God, am I dazzled? This fairy-like girl came to my house, am I dreaming?"
I couldn't help but laugh. Aunt Congfei is really funny. "Aunt Fei, I am a fairy, and you are the fairy lady."
Congfei's eyebrows were curved with joy, "Haha, we are really good at talking."
"Hello, Aunt Fei!" Ziyi called out with a smile.
Congfei pulled Yike towards the sofa and said to Ziyi, "Ziyi, you said you two were coming, so you should have called me so I could ask his dad to leave the car behind and have your elder brother Han drive to pick you up."
"Aunt Fei, we made this decision suddenly as well," Ziyi explained.
"Ziyi, sit anywhere you want. Treat this as your own home, don't be polite. And Yan'er, why don't you pour the tea?" Congfei glared at her son who was still standing there.
Cong Fei gently patted the back of Yi Ke's hand, and said with joy in her words: "Yi Ke, I thought it would take a long time for us to see each other again after we parted in Kyoto, but I didn't expect to see each other again so soon. I'm so happy, haha, your mother will be jealous of me, haha."
"This is really possible." Yike thought that her mother in Kyoto would most likely blame her after she knew about this.
"This banana cake is sweet, soft and delicious. Try it."
Congfei handed a piece of cake to Yike and told Ziyi to help himself.
Before Yike had finished eating, she put out several kinds of cakes and pastries for Yike to taste.
