27: Visiting Yanji

Liu Zhuoyun listened to the anticipation in Jiang Yuan's tone; she knew Jiang Yuan genuinely wanted to travel with her, and this sincerity made her feel cherished.

Many Boys had liked her since childhood, but Jiang Yuan was the only one who gave her a different feeling. Perhaps it was because Jiang Yuan was handsome enough, along with some unknown feelings, that she inexplicably developed a fondness for him.

She nodded gently, looking at Jiang Yuan's eyes filled with encouragement. Deep in her heart, a long-dormant corner was quietly touched.

She thought, perhaps this time, she could try to pursue it, even if only for a few short days, to experience that free and easy journey.

The next day, because they had all drunk a lot of alcohol and slept late, it wasn't until around ten in the morning that the group gradually woke up and began to pack their belongings.

Early in the morning, Zhao Xin went to check out. After all, he had booked the villa for Jiang Yuan for three days, but they only stayed for two. There was still one day's room fee left, which was more than 20,000 yuan, so it naturally couldn't be wasted and had to be refunded quickly.

Before leaving, the hotel thoughtfully presented each person with a small souvenir gift as a memento of their stay.

Today, Jiang Yuan planned to drive to Yanji City for some fun.

He heard there were many authentic Korean delicacies there, and since Yanji is a Korean Autonomous Prefecture, they could also experience unique Korean customs and feel a different cultural charm.

After asking around, the Girls all said they were not in a hurry to return to school and could play for two more days.

Jiang Yuan simply let them all get into his brabus g900 and head to Yanji together.

However, with two extra people in the car, it meant Zhao Xin and Li Yu had no seats.

The two stood outside the car, their faces filled with resentment.

"Brother Jiang, you guys go first. I'll have someone send my car over, and I'll find you in Yanji then."

Zhao Xin pondered for a moment, then quickly made a decision and said to Jiang Yuan.

Jiang Yuan nodded in agreement. Then, he stepped on the accelerator, and the brabus g900 let out a low roar, speeding away from the hotel like an arrow shot from a bow.

"Brother Jiang, what kind of car is this? It's so handsome! It looks a bit like a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen, but I see the emblem isn't the Mercedes-Benz emblem."

Song Qinghan, sitting in the spacious middle of the back seat, leaned forward and asked curiously.

She didn't know much about cars, but she could tell that this car, both in appearance and interior, was very high-end.

The three Girls sat in the back without feeling crowded at all. Instead, the perfect embrace of the seats made her feel unexpectedly comfortable and enjoyable.

"This is a G-Wagen."

Jiang Yuan explained with a smile, "But it's a G-Wagen modified by Brabus, Mercedes-Benz's exclusive tuning company. It's called the brabus g900. How about it, isn't it handsome?"

"Handsome! So handsome! It's simply the dream car!"

Song Qinghan exclaimed excitedly, her eyes sparkling.

Zhang Xueya hesitated for a moment, then couldn't help but murmur, "This car... must cost several million, right?" Although she was usually generous, she knew that a luxury car costing several million was an astronomical price.

"Not expensive, just over twenty million."

Jiang Yuan didn't turn his head, his tone as casual as if he were talking about something costing two hundred yuan.

However, his understated remark made the hearts of the Girls in the car tremble.

A car worth over twenty million yuan! They were sitting in it, vibrant and fresh, experiencing ultimate luxury.

Even Liu Zhuoyun, who came from a wealthy family, couldn't help but glance sideways at Jiang Yuan, who was sitting in the passenger seat.

She hadn't said much along the way, but her heart was shaken by Jiang Yuan's casual extravagance.

She hadn't expected that she had underestimated Jiang Yuan before.

She originally thought Jiang Yuan was, at most, young and promising, or from a wealthy family, with assets of seven or eight million.

But she never expected that just one of his cars was worth over twenty million. The value of this car alone accounted for a significant portion of her family's assets.

However, Liu Zhuoyun wasn't particularly interested in these things. She didn't like driving and didn't need to drive. At home, she always had a private car for pick-up and drop-off, and here she took a commercial car with friends. She had never taken a public bus or subway since childhood.

Perhaps because Girls don't have a big concept of cars, or perhaps they were infected by Jiang Yuan's casual demeanor, the car quickly became lively with chatter along the way.

They talked about college life and various gossips.

Song Qinghan excitedly said that they had never visited Yanji since starting university. Zhang Xueya and Shen Lingke, however, had visited in winter before, so they recommended various must-see spots and specialty foods in Yanji to Liu Zhuoyun and Song Qinghan along the way.

They say three women make a play; these four women, once they started talking, couldn't stop.

Even Liu Zhuoyun, who was usually the quietest, seemed to open up a lot in such a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, asking many more questions.

But most of the time, she listened quietly, occasionally asking curiously what Yanji was like or which Korean dish was the most delicious.

Her parents were too strict with her at home; let alone those specialty foods outside, she had never even eaten street food since she was a child.

Her daily diet was always prepared by a nutritionist, for fear that she would get sick if she ate anything unclean.

So, there was a benefit to this: Liu Zhuoyun had hardly ever been sick since childhood, and her physique was even better than ordinary people's, with astonishing immunity.

Listening to the cheerful chatter of the Girls behind him, Jiang Yuan's lips unconsciously curved into a satisfied smile.

This ease and vitality were precisely what he had been missing before.

Along the way, Jiang Yuan did not drive the brabus g900 fast. Relaxing and soothing music played in the car, and the pleasant voices of the Girls occasionally reached his ears.

In this comfort, more than an hour of driving passed without them realizing it, and they successfully arrived in Yanji City.

Because Yanji's most famous internet-famous Bullet-Screen Wall only looks good when lit up at night, they didn't go there directly.

After discussing, the Girls decided to go to the Folk Park first. They all wanted to change into Korean traditional clothing there and take a set of beautiful Portrait Photos.

Upon arriving at the Folk Park, they casually bought some local specialty snacks by the roadside, tasting the local flavors while following their phone navigation towards the Photo Studio they had previously chosen.

Before long, the group arrived at the entrance of the Photo Studio. Since they had made an appointment in advance before departing, they could be arranged for makeup immediately upon arrival.

This shop was quite large, with about ten professional makeup artists alone. Therefore, none of the four Girls had to wait for each other. They each chose their preferred style of Korean traditional clothing and sat there excitedly, allowing the makeup artists to meticulously adorn them.

"Handsome Guy, aren't you going to take a set of photos?"

A woman who looked to be in her thirties, wearing casual clothes, walked up to Jiang Yuan and asked.

She had a gentle smile on her face and was likely the owner of the Photo Studio.

"I'll pass."

Jiang Yuan scratched his head, his gaze sweeping across the store. He saw only Girls getting their makeup done there. Although he felt a little eager to try, he still felt a bit embarrassed and ultimately chose to politely decline.

"Brother Jiang, try it! You're so handsome, it'd be a shame not to take a set!"

Zhang Xueya's words were astonishing, and she teased playfully, "Brother Jiang, you can be the Korean King, and we'll be the Korean Queens, hahaha!"

"Do you have men's clothing here?"

Hearing her, Jiang Yuan couldn't help but be tempted.

He looked around somewhat doubtfully. As far as he could see, all the clothes displayed in the shop were colorful, varied styles of women's clothing, and he didn't seem to see any traditional men's attire.
