"There have been a lot of changes here, and many old houses have been demolished." Shi Yi said.
Fu Shitian was absent-minded and responded sullenly, "Yes."
Shi Yi's heart skipped a beat, but he suppressed his emotions and asked calmly, "You knew? Have you been here before?"
Fu Shitian was about to answer when the green light came on and the car behind him honked anxiously. Shi Yi came back to his senses and drove, and Fu Shitian also pulled away from his emotions.
"Are we almost there?" Fu Shitian raised the car window, staring at the winding lines on the navigation and asked.
"Well, in ten minutes."
Fu Shitian picked up his phone and seemed to be recording: "We left at about eight o'clock. It's 8:21 now, so the journey will take about thirty minutes."
"Hmm." Shi Yi rubbed the steering wheel with his thumb and glanced at Fu Shitian calmly.
Fu Shitian looked at the road ahead, and everything was no different from usual.
Shi Yi frowned. Her last name wasn't Jiang, and neither was her mother's. Reason told Shi Yi that it was impossible.
Never mind. She stepped on the gas a little and focused on driving.
Two minutes earlier than expected, Shi Yi's car drove into the parking lot of Zhouhushan Scenic Area. Because they arrived early, there were not many cars in the parking lot, so Shi Yi parked the car easily. After getting out of the car, the toll collector walked towards them leisurely.
Shi Yi opened her bag as she walked. As soon as she took out her wallet, Fu Shitian handed a five-dollar bill to the toll collector, "I have change."
Shi Yi was stunned. The toll collector didn't say anything. He took the money, tore the ticket and gave it to Fu Shitian, then turned around and walked back.
"I have some change too." Shi Yi took out five dollars from his wallet and handed it to Fu Shitian.
Fu Shitian smiled and didn't answer, changing the subject: "I suddenly remembered, did you bring water?"
Shi Yi understood what she meant and put the money back into his wallet. "Yes, did you bring it?"
"I brought it too."
The two walked towards the entrance of the scenic area, chatting casually.
Zhouhushan is not a popular scenic spot in Shanghai, and it is not the peak season for tourism. There are not many people on the road. Once you enter the scenic spot, you will see a cement road winding up the mountain. At the entrance, a large sign stands out, which is a map of the entire scenic spot.
Shi Yi took some photos with his mobile phone and prepared to follow the route indicated on the map and visit all the important attractions so that he could plan the route up the mountain later.
They decided to visit the attractions on the west side first when going up, and then visit the attractions on the east side when coming down.
But imagination is beautiful, reality is cruel. The plan is different from the actual walking, especially after going up a distance, the cement road disappears, replaced by a stone paved path, winding and twisting, and Shi Yi was dizzy after walking for a while.
Some scenic spots require special paths to enter. Often they walk towards a scenic spot in the west, and halfway through, they suddenly find that they have not only missed it, but also walked in the wrong direction, and went straight to the scenic spot in the east.
After several times, Shi Yi lost confidence in his sense of direction.
Fu Shitian didn't care. While taking photos and taking notes on his phone, he comforted Shi Yi: "It doesn't matter. Everyone has to leave. Those who have left now will not leave later. Those who haven't left can make up for it later."
Shi Yi responded with "hmm", but his brows did not relax and he was still a little confused.
Fu Shitian saw through it. The next time Shi Yi pulled up the map to look at the route, she also put away her notes, leaned over to look at it with Shi Yi, and silently matched the route on the map with the road under her feet.
After that, whenever they passed by a mountain road that turned into a scenic spot, Fu Shitian would always remind Shi Yi in time. After a few times, Shi Yi had a good sense of Fu Shitian's direction, and tacitly exchanged work content with her - she took notes and Fu Shitian led the way.
After stopping and looking around along the way, they finally reached the top of Zhouhu Mountain at 11 o'clock. The highest point of the mountain is a temple, and a little below is a large leisure and entertainment area. In the entertainment area, on the left are several restaurants half-hidden among the lush trees, and on the right is a large grassland. You can enter and exit the grassland freely, but you cannot barbecue. If you want to participate in grass skiing, archery, rock climbing, bungee jumping and other entertainment activities, you need to pay extra.
Fu Shitian stood on a high place outside the grassland and looked at the people skating in the grassland with a look of curiosity.
Shi Yi wanted to say "Let's go in and experience it", but Fu Shitian turned her head first and asked her: "Let's ask about the prices of a few projects. If everyone is interested, can you come and experience it?"
Shi Yi agreed and turned to look for the ticket window, with Fu Shitian following behind her. The ticket window was hidden under a big tree not far away, and there was a sign in front of the tree with the specific charges for each item written on it.
Shi Yi wanted to get closer to take a photo. Just as he stood in front of the sign, there was a rustling sound in the bushes behind the sign. A black cat with green eyes emerged from the bushes, bared its teeth at Shi Yi, and called out, "Meow~"
Shi Yi was so frightened that he took several steps back and almost stepped on Fu Shitian.
Fu Shitian didn't react to what was happening. He held onto Shi Yi and instinctively took a step forward to stand in front of Shi Yi, as if he was facing a formidable enemy.
The black cat looked at the two of them and called out again: "Meow~"
Fu Shitian: “…”
The black cat yawned, flicked its tail, and ran back into the bushes.
Fu Shitian relaxed, turned around and asked Shi Yi: "Are you afraid of cats?" There was surprise in his tone.
"No." Shi Yi's voice was stiff and calm, and he emphasized: "I'm afraid of black cats."
Isn't that still fear of cats? Fu Shitian looked at Shi Yi, who now had no expression on his face, and recalled the poor little guy who was frightened and panicked by a kitten just now. Suddenly, he was touched by the cuteness and couldn't hide his smile.
It's too obvious! Shi Yi narrowed his eyes and locked his gaze on Fu Shitian.
Fu Shitian received the signal and tried hard to control the muscles at the corners of his mouth, but his eyes couldn't hide it at all. This is what Shi Yi looked like when he was angry and embarrassed.
So cute.
A hint of embarrassment flashed across Shi Yi's eyes. He looked away, deliberately ignoring this episode, and stepped forward again to take a picture of the price list.
Fu Shitian held her arm and said softly, "Let me take the picture." She was afraid that the cat would suddenly jump out again.
When Shi Yi thought of those green eyes, his hair stood on end and his body stopped faster than his thoughts.
Fu Shitian couldn't hold back her laughter again. Afraid that Shi Yi would notice, she lowered her head and walked forward quickly. After taking a picture of the price list, she went to the window to ask if there were any group purchase tickets, how many people, and how much discount they could get.
Afterwards, they went to each restaurant on the left to ask whether they provided barbecue venues and equipment, whether they provided ingredients, what the price was if they provided ingredients, what the price was if they did not provide ingredients, if they could see the ingredients first, etc. Fu Shitian was the one who pioneered the way and took the initiative to take over the communication with the store owners.
After searching for another restaurant, Fu Shitian and Shi Yi stood by the mountain path, staring at the information on their phones and comparing prices.
"The first one is the most expensive, but has the best environment and overlooks the entire city; the second one is moderately priced and has decent hygiene, but does not provide food for guests to bring in. The third one is a little more expensive than the second one, and has a similar hygiene environment, but it can provide a separate venue and utensils, and guests can bring their own food. The fourth one is the cheapest, and guests can bring their own food, and it also comes with a self-service kitchen, but the entire dining experience is indoors, and the hygiene environment is relatively simple." Fu Shitian concluded.
"Which one do you think is more suitable?" Shi Yi asked.
Fu Shitian thought for a moment and replied, "Let's go to the third one. One is that outdoor barbecue has a better atmosphere, and the other is that we are bringing so many people out, so hygiene and safety are still very important. Although the price of the second one is better, I looked at its ingredients and I don't think they are very fresh. It's better for us to bring them ourselves. What do you think?"
Shi Yi nodded: "I think the same as you." She looked at Fu Shitian, admiration flashing in her eyes.
She found that when Fu Shitian was working seriously, she was a very meticulous and reliable person, and unexpectedly, very generous and not afraid of strangers, which was very different from her usual shy appearance.
"Then if we come to Zhouhushan, shall we book this restaurant? I'll leave their phone number, and we'll call to make a reservation once we're sure?"
Shi Yi said: "Okay."
It was almost noon, and the two had been walking uphill for nearly two hours. Although they were not exhausted, their feet were a little sore. Shi Yi saw that Fu Shitian's fine hair was already wet.
"Would you like to have lunch here?" Shi Yi suddenly asked. "In addition to barbecue, the third restaurant also provides ordinary set meals and pasta indoors." Most importantly, you can rest for a while.
Fu Sitian was slightly startled, then agreed, "Sure." She thought Shi Yi was hungry. She regretted that she had forgotten to ask Shi Yi if he had had breakfast in the morning.
"Let's go." Shi Yi led the way.
Walking into the room with a suitable temperature again, freeing their feet, they both sighed comfortably in their hearts. After flipping through the menu price list, Fu Shitian breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was still within her tolerance.
Shi Yi called the waiter and ordered a simple barbecued pork rice and a bowl of soup. Fu Shitian only ordered the set meal but did not order soup.
There were occasional laughs from the barbecue area outside the store, but the store was very quiet, with only two or three tables occupied. There was no need to rush, so Shi Yi ate slowly, half eating and half resting. Seeing this, Fu Shitian also consciously slowed down.
When they were almost done eating, Shi Yi used the excuse of going to the restroom to go to the front desk and settle the bill. The cashier was separated from their seats by a decorative glass screen. When the cashier gave her the change, Shi Yi turned her head inadvertently and saw Fu Shitian bending down and pinching the heel of her right shoe.
Shi Yi was thoughtful, and the cashier reminded him: "Hello, here is your change, fifteen yuan." Shi Yi took the money and went to the bathroom.
When he returned to his seat, Fu Shitian was already wiping his mouth. Shi Yi asked, "Have you finished eating?"
Fu Shitian nodded, and Shi Yi pushed the chair away, "Shall we go?"
"Okay." Fu Shitian stood up and walked towards the cashier naturally.
Shi Yi called her: "I have already paid."
Fu Shitian was stunned for a moment, then quickly responded: "Then I'll go back and give it to you."
Shi Yi raised her eyebrows slightly and said in a very normal tone: "I chose the place, so of course I have to treat you." She opened the glass door of the restaurant and stood there waiting for Fu Shitian to go out first.
Fu Shitian frowned and opened his mouth to decline, but Shi Yi added calmly: "You can ask me to come back next time."
Next time! This is such a beautiful word. Although this clearly indicated that she might bleed a lot of money, Fu Shitian was still happy. She was convinced, her lips raised, and she discussed with Shi Yi: "Then this is considered as I owe you a meal, okay?"
Shi Yi curled her lips slightly, which was considered as tacit consent. Fu Shitian didn't dwell on it anymore, and walked out of the restaurant obediently through the door she opened.
Shi Yi deliberately lagged behind Fu Shitian by a few steps and followed behind him. After walking a short distance, Shi Yi suddenly pulled the bag chain behind Fu Shitian and asked, "Are your shoes rubbing your feet a bit?"
