50. Only by believing in your nonsense would I go watch the sunrise with you.
Binhjiang Bridge is long and beautiful.
Since it’s not a main thoroughfare, there aren’t many cars passing by in the middle of the night.
Walking on the dashed line in the middle of the road, Lin Yibai thought of herself as a good citizen who obeys the law, and somewhat resisted, saying, “Isn’t this a bit inappropriate? Be careful not to get hit by a car!”
“This isn’t a main road.”
“Still, there are occasional cars passing by!”
“With such a wide view on the bridge, if it weren’t safe, I definitely wouldn’t let you walk here at the risk of my own safety.” It was precisely because it was safe that Xia Changyu gradually developed his own selfish motives.
He meant to walk on the road with her?
This was something he hadn’t even done with his girlfriend Gu Xiaoxue… well, his ex-girlfriend Gu Xiaoxue, whom he would break up with after returning! How exciting.
But unfortunately.
He could only use the excuse of taking photos.
Only then did he dare to walk on the road with the girl in front of him.
The two of them walked together to the end of the bridge; was this journey finally coming to an end?
Finally, they could get rid of the stinky rival in love.
At the fork in the road, Xia Changyu asked, “Shall we go watch the sunrise together?”
Lin Yibai shook her head. “Not going!”
Xia Changyu said, “I heard that…”
Lin Yibai quickly interrupted, saying, “Stop, I don’t want to hear your ‘I heard that’ right now!”
Because if they were to linger at the internet café any longer, it would almost be daylight.
Spending an entire night at the internet café but only playing a few hours on the computer would be such a waste, right?
So she didn’t want to hear any more.
She just wanted to go to the internet café now!!
Xia Changyu didn’t want to give up; although they had only a brief interaction, he seemed to have grasped a little of Lin Yibai’s temperament. He said, “I know you came to Binhai because of me, and you spent a lot of money on this trip, so no matter what, it can be considered a bit of tourism! And one of the most famous sights by the seaside is the sunrise. If you don’t even watch the sunrise, what’s the point of the trip?”
Lin Yibai stopped in her tracks.
From a travel perspective, she realized that Xia Changyu’s argument didn’t seem wrong.
It’s like when you go to a tourist city.
And only sleep at the local hotel?
Lin Yibai had many concerns; she bluntly said, “I admit what you said might make sense. Not taking photos during a trip is like eating noodles without garlic; I might consider your suggestion, but I don’t have to accept it.”
“Why not?”
“Because I don’t have money!”
“I heard there’s a coastal scenic area less than twenty kilometers from Binhai City, where there’s a viewing rock. It’s said that the view of the sunrise from there is the best, and the ticket is only 120 yuan each. We can make it in time if we leave now.”
Lin Yibai exclaimed, “120 yuan each? That’s highway robbery!” She then firmly rejected the idea even more.
Xia Changyu was taken aback. “How could that be?”
Clearly, their wavelengths didn’t match.
Lin Yibai thought that asking him to pay 120 yuan for a ticket was no different from asking her to die; it would be far better to have a nice meal instead.
Xia Changyu thought that 120 yuan for a ticket was really not expensive.
He felt that spending 240 yuan for two tickets was worth it!
In Lin Yibai’s naive and simple consciousness, going to a scenic area meant spending her own money.
While Xia Changyu wanted to cover everything.
Lin Yibai shook her head firmly. “Not going, not going! Don’t waste your efforts; even if you beat me to death, I won’t go.”
Xia Changyu said, “But I can pay.”
Lin Yibai instinctively shook her head, “You’ll pay?!” After a while, she reacted, “I still don’t think it’s possible to go.”
She still believed that this cheap deal was something not to be greedy for.
Have you ever heard the story of a dog giving a cat candy? The cat eats the candy and falls asleep, only to wake up with a sore backside the next day.
Xia Changyu, however, was quite surprised.
In general, situations like this.
For instance, when hanging out with Gu Xiaoxue and her roommates, he wouldn’t even have to suggest anything; those girls would already have plans about what to do and eat, never hesitating to express themselves.
He was determined and sincerely invited, “You’ve helped me so much this time. I’m not someone who likes to owe favors. Can’t you let me repay you properly this time?”
Lin Yibai still felt it wasn’t appropriate. “No need.”
Xia Changyu spread his hands and pleaded, “Please, give me a chance to repay you!”
“Can’t you stop like this?”
“Please.”
“Ugh!” After a conflict in her thoughts, Lin Yibai finally said, “Alright, alright!”
She really had no way to deal with him!
She swore she really didn’t want to go, but the stinky rival in love insisted on making her go.
Taking a taxi from here to the scenic area would definitely be expensive!
Lin Yibai thought about how she might share a little of the burden and said, “How about we split the taxi fare in half, and I’ll also pay part of the ticket?”
No, what was she talking about?
If she said that, Xia Changyu would surely be unhappy. He was desperately trying to spend money on her! And it was the kind of willingness that came from his heart.
Really, how should this be put?
Not letting him spend money on her felt worse than killing her.
After a moment of contemplation, Xia Changyu said, “Let’s not take a taxi; I have my own car.”
“Let me contribute some gas money!”
“?”
What, did you look down on me?
Gasoline doesn’t cost much! For a girl to need to pay for gas while being driven around, he thought his friends would laugh at him to death. He wouldn’t be able to hold his head up for the rest of his life.
The two of them arrived at the Seaside Grand Hotel.
After successfully getting in the car, they drove away from the city.
Throughout the journey, Xia Changyu didn’t return to the hotel room and didn’t want to see Gu Xiaoxue and her group.
After a forty-minute drive.
The two finally arrived at the foot of the scenic area.
It was now after three in the morning, and the summer heat had completely dissipated here.
Especially since watching the sunrise required going up a mountain.
The higher they went up the mountain, the colder it got; Lin Yibai never expected that in the scorching summer of May, she would be freezing like a dead dog.
“Why is it so cold?”
“I don’t know.”
“You…” Lin Yibai originally wanted to blame him a little, but after thinking, she murmured, “Fortunately, I’m the one who came with you. If it were another girl, she would have scolded you to death. Your girlfriend would definitely break up with you after experiencing this hardship.”
“Ha ha.” Xia Changyu smiled awkwardly.
“You still have the nerve to laugh?” Lin Yibai glared at him.
“I didn’t know it would be like this!”
“You, you!!” Lin Yibai raised an eyebrow and said, “You need to learn from this. Next time you bring a girl to such a place, you must do your homework in advance, got it?”
“Definitely…”
But it was really too cold on the high mountain by the sea.
Cold winds seeped into the skin, and there were quite a few people at the viewing rock already there to watch the sunrise. Those with experience had wrapped themselves in small blankets.
After considering it for a moment,
He spent a high price to buy one back.
“Here you go.”
“Where did this come from?”
“I bought it…” After a pause, Xia Changyu decided to hide the truth: “A kind person saw we were so cold and lent me one.”
Lin Yibai wrapped the blanket around herself, and the warmth immediately made her feel much better.
But there was only one blanket.
The cold, however, was everywhere.
Although she hated the stinky rival in love, who would have thought that on a summer mountain, it would be so cold?
“Hey!” After struggling and hesitating, Lin Yibai finally loosened the blanket to make some space.
“Let’s share a bit!”
She said?
