Chapter 365 - 273. Prayer of the Girl

Chapter 365: 273. Prayer of the Girl

"Running away with him in the carriage as if eloping~"

"Even if it’s crowded, I won’t let go~"

On the expressway from Hang City to Hu City, the land was vast and flat.

A white Audi A4L, a familiar sight on an ordinary day, sped along the road at top speed.

Inside the car, the Bose sound system played music, and a short-haired girl harmonized in the passenger seat with a voice as crisp and pleasant as that of an oriole.

Yang Qianhua’s "Prayer of the Girl" happened to match Guan Yongyi’s mood at that moment.

Good lyrics, nice view, wonderful company.

Along the way, countless landscapes whizzed by.

Guan Yongyi curled up her knees, resting her neck on the passenger seat, her right hand holding a bag of chips, occasionally feeding the driver beside her.

"Open up~"

"Aah~"

"Slow down, you!"

She couldn’t help but beam with a smile as she looked at the man sitting upright and firmly holding the steering wheel.

For some reason, Guan Yongyi knew she shouldn’t disturb the driver while he was driving, but she just wanted to feed him something.

Where did that sense of security come from?

His sharply defined features? The masculinity of his Adam’s apple? His long, elegant hands?

She couldn’t tell.

She just wished time would stand still in this moment, on this narrow stretch of highway.

Snacking, singing, and watching the scenery.

She was extremely happy.

It was the first time she had gone on a short trip with a boyfriend, an emotion hard to describe with words.

At this moment, even a girl who didn’t like to express her feelings openly, felt an impulse to post something about it.

She suddenly began to understand Zhou Sinin.

It was nice to be able to show off your love openly.

"Praying that in this carriage we can reach the future~"

"Not letting go even if the car breaks down~"

After a moment of thought, she could only continue to hum along with the music.

At noon, the sunlight was dazzling, and she fished out a pair of sunglasses from her bag, squinting her eyes.

Making a girl’s prayer.

"Praying the world spares a pair of lovers, the feared never comes to pass~"

"Never had an easy time finding good fortune, how can we regain faith~"

As she sang, the female harmony turned into a duet with the male driver.

Xiao Lu joined her in singing, and their voices echoed grandly in the small car.

The road ahead was so straight and so long.

As if by following this road, they could be happy forever, eternally in love.

Every extra minute they spent locked in this carriage felt like eternity.

...

Hu City was no stranger to Guan Yongyi.

As her best friend almost inseparable, her mother almost every year brought her to visit Zhou Sinin’s family in Hu City or opened doors to visitors in Yangcheng.

Hence, Yongyi knew many of Hu City’s attractions better than Lu Jincheng did.

"Eastern Pearl Tower? Forget it, I visited there when I was seven."

"Nanjing Road? We just ate so many snacks, now what, I don’t feel like eating..."

"That’s right! It seems that Disney in Hu City will be topping off next year, remember to bring me here when it opens!"

The car had just entered the suburbs of Hu City, and Guan Yongyi was like a chirping lark, talking nonstop.

"Disney?"

Lu Jincheng smiled and nodded in agreement.

"Sure, once it opens, I’ll definitely bring you here to play."

Maybe in this bit of Hu City, both Guan Yongyi and Zhou Sinin knew it better than he did.

But to say nothing else, Mr. Lu was still quite confident in his knowledge of how to enjoy Disney.

Unfortunately, Mainland China’s first Disney resort located in Hu City had not yet opened in 2014; it was still in the construction phase.

Otherwise, just by going in and out of Disney a few times, it would have been enough to make an eighteen-year-old girl absolutely ecstatic.

The two parked their car in the hotel parking lot, threw their luggage into the room, and walked shoulder to shoulder down the street.

"Since the day I became an adult, I’ve wanted to live in Hu City."

A gust of cold wind blew past, and Lu Jincheng tightened his hoodie, suddenly remembering a song that he used to play on a loop in his previous life.

"Huh? Why?"

Guan Yongyi blinked her eyes and turned her head, looking at him curiously.

"Because... every damn brick under our feet is worth ten thousand."

Lu Jincheng laughed and stamped his foot, exaggerating for effect.

"You’re talking weird again. The housing prices in Jiang City are nearly ten thousand per unit, and yet I haven’t seen you skimping and saving on food?"

Guan Yongyi pursed her lips and pulled his arm, moving forward.

Understanding Hu City actually had its benefits.

That was, the popular check-in spots for white-collar hipsters didn’t need any concern from Mr. Lu himself.

Guan Yongyi would take him to the promised places.

Ever since the short-haired girl found out Zhou Sinin’s Christmas present was a Maserati, she stopped thinking about saving money on food for men.

How much could dining and entertainment possibly cost!

Besides, dating a man was never just about eating and chatting.

The taste of the food was important, of course, but taking photos to remember or to post on social media was the top priority.

Sometimes, dimly lit restaurants and bars may feel atmospheric but are hardly conducive to good snapshots.

Nothing could beat the brilliant afternoon sun they were under that day, which was simply the best makeup.

The effect it had on their faces outshone any foundation.

Hu City never lacked such great places.

For instance, their first meal in Hu City was at Blackbird.

Situated on Urumqi South Road, Blackbird faced a certain consulate and was always a frontrunner in Hu City’s trendy dining scene.

The street-facing side was all full-length panoramic windows; one could look up and see a screen full of plane trees.

"Where did you find such a sophisticated place?"

Lu Jincheng exclaimed.

The cool grey Nordic interior design, the ceiling adorned with several spherical chandeliers, and even a glass-designed ceiling, created a strong design aesthetic that was also comforting.

The tableware and presentation here were very thoughtful, complemented by the sunlight pouring in through the windows, the photos taken were naturally beautiful, not even needing a filter.

"What do you think?"

"She has been recommending this place to me for a long time."

"She also kept saying that once she had a boyfriend, she would drag him here to check in."

Guan Yongyi paused, looking at the man with a smirk.

"Did you check in here before her?"

Lu Jincheng deliberately played dumb.

"She even celebrated the holiday before her!"

The photos were quickly taken, and the short-haired girl hummed softly, lifting her chin and turning her head away.

In the afternoon, they chose a window-side seat, leaning back on the cushions, the entire scenic view of Hu City French Concession within eyesight.

With wine, meat, coffee, and desserts, it was extremely pleasant.

The two strolled through Hu City the entire afternoon, walking around Gaoqiao Park, blowing in the breeze by the Huangpu River.

In this brand-new city, Guan Yongyi seemed to be unshackled, lively and high-spirited, bouncing along with joy twinkling in her eyes.

Time quickly flowed to seven o’clock, the highlight of their trip to Hu City.

Eastern Sports Center in Hu City.

The crowd naturally formed long lines, ready for ticket inspection.

"You still haven’t told me yet!"

"Tell you what?"

"How on earth did you manage to snag these seats?"
