Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Is this a foreigner_1?

Hearing Wang Ye say this, Angelina quickly nodded in agreement.

Having arrived in the middle of the night, she hadn’t seen anything yet and was interested to see what Wang Ye’s hometown looked like.

The two of them got up and slipped out without anyone paying much attention to them.

They left the restaurant and came to the road outside.

This was already considered the city center. Yangnan City was not large, especially in 2001, with hardly any skyscrapers to be seen throughout the city.

The tallest building was the department store diagonally across the road.

The road was not wide, and the occasional car that passed by were all affordable ones like Fukang and Santana. As for BMW or Mercedes-Benz, they didn’t exist here at all.

"You see, this is my hometown, a very ordinary small city. Other than the large number of people, there’s really nothing special about it," Wang Ye said with a smile.

Angelina looked around, and indeed, this place can’t be compared to Moscow...

Of course, she was prepared for this, and didn’t feel disappointed.

Even if Moscow was a world city, Yangnan was just a small city in mainland China.

It was beyond comparison.

"Let’s go, we’ll take a stroll," Wang Ye suggested.

He should have been in Moscow three months ago, and before that, he had lived in this city for eighteen years...

Well, not really. He should have been living in a small county town below, and he did come to the city quite a number of times, so he was quite familiar with it.

But now his feeling was like he hadn’t been here for a very long time, and everything seems so unfamiliar...

The two of them were walking side by side, attracting a lot of attention from passersby.

To be precise, it was Angelina who was attracting a lot of attention.

Blond hair, blue eyes, and a beautiful face. Seeing such a beauty in a small city in mainland China in 2001 was quite unusual and made her stand out.

Feeling everyone’s gaze on her, Angelina seemed a bit shy. She held Wang Ye’s hand and whispered, "Did I wear the wrong clothes, or is there something wrong with me? Why is everyone looking at me?"

"Haha, that’s because you’re so beautiful that no one has ever seen such a beautiful woman before, so they’re just admiring you," Wang Ye joked.

...

By April, the weather in Yangnan had started to get hot.

Angelina only wore a pair of white slim-fit jeans, topped with a hooded sweatshirt, and her golden hair was tied up with a hairband.

Coincidentally, Wang Ye was similarly dressed, in jeans and a sweatshirt.

Both of them were quite tall, Wang Ye standing at 185cm and Angelina at 176cm.

Walking together, they made quite a tidy and attractive couple...

Walking along the road, Wang Ye couldn’t help being sentimental, the Yangnan City of this era was too poor!

Of course, even twenty years later, Yangnan was still not a wealthy city...

After all, it was just a small place inland, with no mountains, no sea, no resources, and no large enterprises. They relied solely on farming - how could they possibly become wealthy?

However, the winds of the Reform and Opening Up had blown here.

There were already many shops along the streets, selling clothes, shoes, daily necessities - you name it.

The first batch of people who got rich in Yangnan probably came from these small businesses.

Before they knew it, the two of them had arrived in front of a big gate. Wang Ye looked up and smiled at Angelina, saying, "This is Yangnan City High School."

This high school was one of the more reputable ones in Yangnan City, but still couldn’t compare to Wang Ye’s alma mater.

It didn’t seem to have a restrictive management system. It was past noon and there were quite a few students entering and leaving the school gate. It was quite lively.

Wang Ye had no connection with this school, but he stopped in his tracks, standing on the opposite side of the road, gazing at the school gate for quite a while.

Angelina noticed his odd behavior and asked, "Misha, what’s wrong? Do you have any friends studying here?"

Wang Ye shook his head and smiled, "It’s nothing. Let’s go."

He was reminded of his "past life" wife...

She studied at Yangnan City High School. Wang Ye just couldn’t remember whether she had already enrolled this year or was due to start the following year.

After all, his "past life" wife was a whole four years younger than Wang Ye.

Just as he was about to move forward, holding Angelina’s hand, a voice from behind shocked him, causing him to stop dead in his tracks.

"Han Xiaodan, wait for me."

A girl called out.

"Oh, Xiao Tong, hurry up, class is about to start," another girl responded in a clear and soft voice.

Han Xiaodan, that was the name of Wang Ye’s "past life" wife!

His neck stiffened, and it took him a moment to turn his head and look back.

He saw two girls hopping and jumping along, coming up from behind him, preparing to cross the road on the zebra crossing ahead.

One of them, not that tall, just over 160cm.

She had short ear-length hair, a refined countenance, not exactly a great beauty, but definitely not unattractive.

Especially her pair of eyes, clear and bright, black and white distinct, very lively.

However, due to her age, at this time, Han Xiaodan was still a young girl with a childish face...

......

Wang Ye and Angelina stood out noticeably as they stood there.

The man was tall, handsome, and the woman was beautiful and exotic...

Yes, indeed exotic. After all, with her blond hair and blue eyes, it was obvious that she was a foreigner.

Han Xiaodan and her classmate Xiao Tong also noticed Wang Ye and Angelina. But children of that time were relatively innocent.

Although they were curious about the foreigner Angelina, they didn’t dare to stare pointedly, just stealing a few glances.

Then they noticed that the handsome man was staring directly at them. Startled, Han Xiaodan shyly pursed her lips, lowered her head, and hurriedly walked with Xiao Tong towards the zebra crossing.

As they walked, Xiao Tong whispered, "Did you see the foreign woman? She’s so beautiful, and so tall, she must be a model. And the foreign man looks so much like a Chinese person. He might be of Chinese descent, I wonder if he can speak Chinese, hehe."

Since Wang Ye and Angelina were holding hands, they were obviously friends or a couple.

So, in Xiao Tong’s concept, a foreigner’s friend must also be a foreigner...

So, she thought Wang Ye was a foreigner too, or maybe a Chinese overseas.

Han Xiaodan felt that made some sense. Besides, foreigners don’t understand Chinese!

She turned her head to sneak another glance, and found that Wang Ye was still staring at her. She quickly turned her head back and whispered, "Why is the foreign man staring at me? He’s not a bad guy, is he?"

Xiao Tong immediately checked and found it to be true.

But it was broad daylight and they were at the school gate with people coming and going. There couldn’t possibly be a problem.

She teased, "Maybe the foreigner has taken a fancy to you. I heard foreigners are very open-minded. Maybe he’ll march up to our classroom door to confess his love and give you flowers. Let’s see what you’ll do."

Han Xiaodan blushed and chided her, giving Xiao Tong a pinch, and said unrelentingly, "Don’t talk nonsense! How could that be possible..."
