Zhao Hui glanced at the sky and said, "If everyone wants to ski, let's do it for a while tomorrow morning. It's too late to ski at night now, and we're all beginners, so it's not very safe."
"And you guys traveled the whole way, eating, chatting, and sleeping, while Lin Xiao was driving the whole time!"
Upon hearing this, everyone realized that they had overlooked Lin Xiao's hard work, and they quickly responded in kind.
And so, the five of them strolled leisurely through the quiet and cozy town at night, stopping at beautifully decorated cafes for a drink and a rest, and casually choosing a small restaurant for a meal when they got hungry. They spent the whole evening in a very relaxed and pleasant manner.
It was almost 10 o'clock when the group returned to their residence.
Just as Lin Xiao described during dinner yesterday, this little villa is made entirely of wood, with the floors, ceilings, and walls all made of solid wood with natural grain patterns, exuding a unique woody fragrance.
This villa, with its distinctive cement, lime, and brick structure, felt quite different from the typical domestic villas, prompting many to express their admiration.
Zhao Hui asked Lin Xiao if he knew what kind of tree this wood was from.
Lin Xiao said that it usually seems to be black walnut and maple, and birch is also quite common, but he doesn't know which type of wood it is.
Wei Changfeng looked at her with a smile and joked that there were things she didn't know.
Lin Xiao looked at his bright, star-like eyes and smiled, "Of course, there are many things I don't know. Let alone not recognizing wood, I don't even know the French for these few words."
"It's okay. The skills you have right now are enough to kill our whole team in the game!" Wei Changfeng said happily.
A thick woven carpet covered the solid wood floor of the villa, and there was a fireplace in the corner with prepared firewood next to it.
Everyone sat down around and saw a user manual on a small round wooden chair.
Lin Xiao gave a simple translation, explaining that because there were many foreign tourists, some of whom were not used to using it, the landlord had left it there specifically.
Following Lin Xiao's instructions, Wei Changfeng placed several pieces of firewood in the fireplace and lit them with a torch. The firewood had been dried beforehand and burned quickly. The fireplace glowed warmly, instantly making the room even cozier and more inviting.
Lin Xiao used the red wine and seasonings he had just bought from the supermarket to brew a pot of mulled wine. It contained lemon slices, cinnamon, star anise, and clove leaves, giving it a very unique flavor.
Xiao Hao excitedly said that he knew foreigners drink red wine like this in winter, and he used to think that they only drank cold drinks all year round.
Lin Xiao smiled. She had learned from their last chat that Xiao Hao was slightly older than her, but judging from his appearance and mannerisms, he seemed to be a year or two younger than her. Sometimes he looked just like a child.
Wei Changfeng took the cup and drank it. The wine was fragrant and had a very good effect on dispelling cold. After a few sips, his body quickly warmed up.
Everyone chatted and drank, creating a very harmonious atmosphere.
