Chapter 818: To meet doesn’t mean we have once known each other.

After dragging on for several days, Jiang Chen naturally gave Lan Peizhi an affirmative answer.

Then, Lan Peizhi unexpectedly told him to go to Haojiang first and to get in touch later.

Where was the attitude of someone seeking help?

But Jiang Chen was someone with a broad mind and didn’t mind it.

With a personage like Lan Peizhi, it was certain that business kept him busy, which could be understood.

Without a direct flight to Haojiang, he chose to first stop in the neighboring city, then made a special trip by car, entering the world-renowned Casino City of The East via the bridge that was termed an architectural marvel.

Haojiang wasn’t large, mainly composed of two regions, and the total land area was comparable to the East Sea Airport.

When Luo Peng learned that Jiang Chen was coming to Haojiang, he strongly requested to accompany him, but Jiang Chen naturally refused.

If it were for leisure, he certainly wouldn’t mind bringing Luo Peng and others for a free travel, but that was not the purpose of his trip.

Of course.

Born into an environment countless levels higher, Young Master Luo taught Jiang a lot about the "customs and traditions" of Haojiang.

Back in high school, Young Master Luo had personally experienced the charm of this Casino City of The East, and following his recommendation, Jiang Chen on his first trip to Haojiang did not choose the busier central Haojiang but stayed on the Haojiang Peninsula with its historical character.

Mandarin Oriental.

Compared to a series of luxurious Haojiang hotels, it didn’t stand out, but this hotel was the only one in the entire Haojiang that didn’t have a casino.

Standing at the window, he could see the towering Haojiang Tower in the distance without any blockade.

After completing the check-in, Jiang Chen wasn’t in a hurry to call Lan Peizhi, and instead went out to have a look around.

It’s better to travel ten thousand miles than to read ten thousand books.

Gangcheng was a paradise for women, while Haojiang was a paradise for men.

Even without having been to Haojiang, Jiang Chen was familiar with this phrase, but he had little interest in food, drink, and fun, particularly since he had already visited the larger-scale Las Vegas.

Ignoring the largest Hermès store under the hotel, Jiang Chen wanted to explore the old district of Haojiang.

Indeed, Haojiang was limited in size, and nearly any place could be reached on foot, which undoubtedly was a huge convenience to sightseeing tourists.

Even if he hadn’t been to Haojiang before, Jiang Chen had a one-sided understanding of the city’s landscape through television, of course, not just limited to gambling aspects.

Some film and television works had completely avoided Haojiang’s biggest characteristic of today, focusing instead on the most rustic life of the old Haojiang people.

A city, no matter the size, always has a clear line that divides it.

Luo West Street.

Jiang Chen seemed to be standing on this dividing line at the moment.

On one side was the glitz of the Casino City of The East, on the other, the tranquility and simplicity of small-town life.

Not everyone comes to Haojiang to gamble.

And not all Haojiang residents are involved in the gaming industry.

In fact, most people in Haojiang live a normal life, like any other city, such as what Jiang Chen saw with his own eyes, the historic cobblestone streets flanked by various shops, teahouses, restaurants, and even shopkeepers using dustpans in the doorway to sun freshly made almond cookies, greeting acquaintances with a smile, full of the fragrance of life.

Jiang Chen leisurely surveyed his surroundings and passed through the old street. According to the navigation, it would take less than ten minutes to reach Moon Well, highly recommended by Luo Peng.

Luo Peng had been vivid in his description, but standing there, Jiang Chen didn’t find anything unique about the already dried-up small well. Perhaps it was because Luo Peng had visited it with a high school girlfriend, and the memory added charm to the well.

"Be careful, it’s dangerous."

Just as Jiang Chen approached the Moon Well, wanting to look into the well, a pleasant female voice reached him.

Jiang Chen stopped, instinctively turned his head, and involuntarily brightened up.

She was a tall woman with fine eyebrows and bright teeth, not the traditional fair-skinned beauty, her wheat-like skin tone radiated health and vigor.

"Didn’t you see the sign next to it?"

Following the young woman’s gaze, Jiang Chen noticed a warning sign posted next to the Moon Well.

It read, "Please keep away."

"Sorry."

Realizing his mistake, Jiang apologized.

After a friendly warning, she no longer paid attention to him and picked up the camera hanging around her neck.

Jiang Chen politely stepped aside, not to disturb her as she took photographs.

"Click, click, click..."

The casually dressed young woman had a very professional posture while taking pictures, looking like a professional photographer or someone who travels frequently.

Jiang Chen watched for a while and then shifted his gaze, sitting down on a nearby stone bench.

"Did you get separated from your tour group?"

Jiang Chen, resting for a bit, was surprised to turn his head and see the girl looking at him.

He paused, then laughed, "No, I didn’t join a tour group. I came here by myself."

Immediately, he asked curiously, "How did you know I was here for sightseeing?"

"Local Haojiang people generally wouldn’t come here."

Jiang Chen looked at the girl’s handsome face, "Are you also traveling here alone?"

It’s not common for women to come to Haojiang alone.

She shook her head, "I’m from Haojiang."

Jiang Chen was taken aback and showed an embarrassed smile, "You just said..."

The other party didn’t seem to see any contradiction in her words and calmly explained, "I came here once as a child and wanted to come back and see it again today."

Jiang Chen nodded in realization.

The woman didn’t say more and turned to leave.
