Chapter 93 is essentially three female protagonists gathered together.
Chapter 93 is essentially three female protagonists gathered together.
"So what?" Xu Zhiyi didn't quite understand.
"Today, the lady in charge of guiding us said that couples who hold hands at the summer festival generally have very stable relationships and often come back to fulfill their vows," Meng Shuran said.
She spoke of these things with such longing that Xu Zhiyi and Su Qingyuan were dumbfounded.
After a moment, Su Qingyuan spoke up, "Shuran, do you want to hold hands with Chen Yuan at the Summer Festival?"
"..."
"Isn't it a bit inappropriate to say these things in front of me?" Chen Yuan said innocently.
"Oh, right. Then let's talk about it privately later," Su Qingyuan said thoughtfully.
"Then you should say it to my face." Chen Yuan thought for a moment, it was better to say it to my face than to whisper behind my back.
However, neither of them noticed the fleeting panic on Meng Shuran's face after hearing these words, but Xu Zhiyi caught this scene.
Looking at Meng Shuran now, Xu Zhiyi wondered what had happened. How come the girl who had told her she was just going to experience the cruise ship suddenly fell in love with Chen Yuan?
Xu Zhiyi felt something was off, but she couldn't quite put her finger on why.
Su Qingyuan quickly forgot the question she had asked, and Meng Shuran naturally steered the conversation to the upcoming itinerary.
After leaving the hot spring, the four of them walked back to their room in peace and quiet.
Although the team has changed, the room has not.
Chen Yuan said goodbye to the three of them and returned to the Japanese-style room, where Lin Wanxing was wrapped in a quilt, bored and lost in thought.
The table fan beside it was blowing silently.
"You've been soaking for so long," Lin Wanxing said.
"Yeah, I just ran into Su Qingyuan and the others, and we chatted for a while," Chen Yuan said, then went to lie down on the tatami mat and wrapped himself in the blanket.
"You guys went to the mixed soup restaurant?" Lin Wanxing asked in surprise, then exclaimed as if she had just remembered something, "Su Qingyuan, Meng Shuran, and Xu Zhiyi all went?"
"Hmm," Chen Yuan replied softly, not understanding why Lin Wanxing was so agitated.
"Wow, you're something else! So you've soaked in a hot spring with all four female guests now," Lin Wanxing said in a low voice.
Upon careful consideration, Chen Yuan realized that this was indeed the case.
"By the way, I heard from Lu Zeyan that there's a summer festival next Friday. You guys will be going, right?" Lin Wanxing asked, believing that Meng Shuran had also told Chen Yuan about it.
"I'll probably go, but that day happens to be the last day of filming," Chen Yuan muttered. He didn't know if there was a schedule for that day, but the production team probably did.
"Ah~"
"Summer festival, huh? Will I really meet my other half there?" Lin Wanxing sighed, leaning against Chen Yuan, muttering to herself, "Speaking of which, what's with Meng Shuran? Could it be that she likes you?"
Chen Yuan paused, thinking that since what happened that day had already been recorded, everyone would know about it eventually, so he told Lin Wanxing about it.
"Actually, Meng Shuran and I..."
In the small Japanese-style room, only Chen Yuan's voice echoed.
After a while, Chen Yuan finished telling his story about Meng Shuran.
"Hiss~~"
"Holy crap!" Lin Wanxing exclaimed in shock, her mouth agape. This was arguably the most mind-blowing story she had ever heard. "Then aren't you two a match made in heaven?"
"My childhood sweetheart went on the show just to see you!"
"My God, what a terrible fate! If you two can't be together, it's against all reason!" Lin Wanxing exclaimed in shock.
"Really?" Chen Yuan found it strange. He believed that what happened back then was the opportunity for him and Meng Shuran to get together. Besides, it was something that happened when they were teenagers. Who would consider such a thing as fate?
"That's not what they think, so don't spread rumors. I've only told you this, so don't tell anyone else," Chen Yuan pleaded.
Although everyone will find out after the show ends, he doesn't want it to spread during the show right now.
"Okay, I won't say," Lin Wanxing agreed. However, this matter had greatly shocked her. Wasn't this the destiny she had been longing for?
"So, do you like Shuran now?" Lin Wanxing asked curiously.
"Feelings aren't one-sided," Chen Yuan said speechlessly. "Besides, it's probably not to the point of liking each other yet."
"Really? Then let me ask you, if she confessed her feelings to you, wouldn't you accept her?" Lin Wanxing asked.
"This..." Chen Yuan was stunned. This time he couldn't give an answer. If any of these five girls confessed to him, would he refuse?
No normal person would refuse a confession from such a wonderful girl, and he considered himself a normal person as well.
Seeing his silence, Lin Wanxing clearly already knew the answer. "That's wonderful. I wish I could have a relationship like that too," she murmured to herself, and soon fell asleep.
Hearing the breathing behind him, Chen Yuan sighed silently, cleared his mind of all distractions, and quickly fell asleep.
Silent night...
The next day, after everyone finished eating, they set off according to the groups they had been assigned the night before.
Meng Shuran and her companions had absolutely no idea about strategy guides, but they had the advantage of having Chen Yuan, who could speak Japanese, with them.
During the meal, Xu Zhiyi had an idea and asked Chen Yuan to communicate with the hotel owner, thus obtaining a travel guide.
Right now, the first stop is to take a sightseeing bus and circle around Kagoshima.
After leaving the hotel, the four of them went to a nearby bus stop to wait.
Today, Kagoshima was cloudless, and the distant volcano was clearly visible. When the wind blew, Su Qingyuan and her two companions at the bus stop became like the heroines in a manga.
The image of the flowing skirt was captured by countless viewers in the live stream.
Chen Yuan turned his head and looked around. He felt like he couldn't take it all in. These three people together were like the female protagonists of three anime coming together.
Su Qingyuan changed her hairstyle to wavy hair today, which fell over her shoulders. She wore a printed T-shirt on top, a black pleated skirt on the bottom, and a pair of gray and white sandals, which changed her usual image and made her look very youthful.
Xu Zhiyi still had her hair in a bun, and she chose an asymmetrical dress and black low-top sneakers. Her long, fair legs were visible beneath the skirt that was billowing in the wind. Moreover, since she started wearing contact lenses, she looked even more charming and youthful.
Meng Shuran's change in style surprised him the most. She wore a half-up ponytail, a beige round-neck T-shirt, beige casual pants, and white sneakers, looking both serene and lively.
She tucked a corner of her shirt into her pants and carried a crossbody bag; she possessed an indescribable charm today.
The next moment, Su Qingyuan and the other two all looked at him.
"What's wrong? You were staring at us just now. Are you too beautiful?" Su Qingyuan asked playfully.
Upon hearing this, Chen Yuan withdrew his gaze, smiled awkwardly, and nodded, "Yes, you are all so beautiful, just like the heroines in a comic book."
"Hmm..." Meng Shuran pondered for a moment, then asked, "So, who's the most beautiful today?"
"Beauty that is equally matched." Chen Yuan already had a solution to this problem; reading on the cruise ship wasn't for nothing.
"Tch, how can we be evenly matched? I'm the prettiest, okay?" Su Qingyuan said sullenly.
Just as Chen Yuan was about to be overwhelmed by the three men's relentless pursuit, the sightseeing bus finally arrived from afar.
"The bus is here, get ready to board!" Chen Yuan said, pointing to the approaching bus, clearly afraid of those three guys.
Soon, once the car came to a stop, Chen Yuan eagerly got in, put the prepared change into the box, and said to the driver, "Four people."
The driver paused for a moment, nodded, and then his gaze fell on Su Qingyuan and the other two who got into the car. He was stunned.
Inside the car, the other passengers all turned their gazes toward the three of them.
Kagoshima, Day Two...
There are five days left until the summer festival fireworks display.
