Coach: Coaching the Grizzlies at the beginning, playing the bantam
Chapter 615: Footprints of the Ancient City
The early morning sunlight shone through the curtains, gently waking up Lu Yong and Hannah.
They opened their sleepy eyes, smiled at each other, their hearts full of anticipation for a new day.
After a quick wash, they changed into light clothes and prepared to continue their journey to Suzhou.
Time is running out, but they are not panicking at all, because they know that every moment that follows will be full of surprises.
"Lu, where do you think we should go today?" Hannah asked as she packed her backpack.
Lu Yong smiled and said mysteriously, "There is a place that I guarantee you will like. It is known as one of the six ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River and is a water town that National Geographic says you must visit in your lifetime. Guess where it is?"
Hannah's eyes lit up and she shouted in surprise, "Zhouzhuang Ancient Town! Right?"
Lu Yong nodded, and the two smiled at each other, as if they had already seen the painting of the Jiangnan water town that was about to unfold.
They drove to Zhouzhuang. Along the way, the scenery outside the window passed by like a movie, but their hearts had already flown to that dream place.
Finally, when they stepped into the ancient town of Zhouzhuang, it was as if they had traveled through time and space and arrived in an ancient and mysterious world.
The ancient town of Zhouzhuang, built along the river and connected by bridges, is like a natural landscape painting.
On both sides of the bluestone road are quaint buildings with white walls, black tiles, and flying eaves, exuding a simple and elegant atmosphere.
Occasionally, you can hear a few hawkers shouting in the alley, but more often than not, the alley is filled with the smell of fireworks, which makes people feel a sense of intimacy and warmth.
Lu Yong and Hannah walked hand in hand on the bluestone road, feeling the tranquility and beauty.
They crossed small bridges and watched the gurgling water, as if time had stopped at this moment.
Hannah couldn't help but exclaim: "It's so beautiful here! It's like walking into a painting."
Lu Yong smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, this is a living picture scroll of a Jiangnan water town. Every corner is full of poetry and painting."
They came to a small teahouse and tasted the local tea.
The tea leaves are fragrant and sweet, leaving a lasting aftertaste.
The two of them sipped tea and admired the scenery outside the window, enjoying this rare tranquility and comfort.
After tasting the tea, they came to a handicraft stall.
The stall owner was an elderly artist. The oil-paper umbrella in his hand seemed to have magic, attracting the attention of Lu Yong and Hannah.
They selected several oil-paper umbrellas and asked an experienced artist to paint their favorite characters on the umbrellas.
Holding these unique oil-paper umbrellas, they checked in and took photos on the bluestone road, leaving behind beautiful memories.
Traveling through the various Taoist temples, Lu Yong and Hannah seemed to be in an ancient world.
They admired the architecture and scenery of the ancient town, feeling its simplicity and elegance, and captured a satisfying photo every time they pressed the shutter of their camera.
They know that these photos will become precious memories that they will treasure in their hearts forever.
At noon, they came to an ancient-style shop to have lunch.
The decoration of the store is simple and elegant, as if you have returned to ancient times.
They ordered some local Suzhou dishes. Although the taste was not particularly outstanding, dining in this environment made them feel that the dishes themselves tasted even better.
They ate and talked, enjoying this rare romance and warmth.
After dinner, they continued strolling through the alleys of the ancient town.
Suddenly, a melodious sound of zither came, attracting their attention.
They followed the sound and came to a guzheng shop.
There are various kinds of guzhengs on display in the store, and a young woman is sitting in front of a guzheng and playing it.
Her fingers danced on the strings, as if telling an ancient and beautiful story.
Lu Yong and Hannah were deeply attracted by the wonderful music. They stood in front of the store and listened quietly.
When the song ended, the woman looked up and saw them, and asked with a smile, "Do you like the guzheng?"
Lu Yong nodded and said, "You play the guzheng so beautifully. We are all attracted by your music."
The woman smiled and said, "Thank you for your compliments. If you are interested, I can teach you to play a song."
Lu Yong and Hannah smiled at each other and gladly accepted the woman's invitation.
They sat in front of the guzheng, learning the playing techniques carefully.
Although their fingers were still a little clumsy, under the woman's guidance, they were gradually able to play simple tunes.
At that moment, they seemed to be integrated into this ancient world and felt the charm and flavor of the guzheng.
After learning the guzheng, they continued to stroll through the alleys of the ancient town.
The afterglow of the setting sun shone on them, covering them with a golden coat.
They walked hand in hand on the bluestone road, feeling the romance and warmth.
They knew this moment would be a memory they would treasure forever.
In the afternoon, Zhouzhuang Ancient Town becomes more charming.
The warm sun shines on the river, like a flowing painting.
Lu Yong and Hannah sat on a bench by the river, admiring the beautiful scenery.
They hugged each other, feeling each other's warmth and heartbeat.
"Lu, thank you for bringing me here." Hannah said softly, "It's so beautiful here. It makes me feel the charm and charm of the Jiangnan water town."
Lu Yong hugged Hannah tightly and said, "I'm glad you like it here, too. You know what? In my heart, you are more beautiful than this Jiangnan water town."
After hearing what Lu Yong said, Hannah's heart was filled with sweetness and happiness.
She knew that at this beautiful moment, their love was as poetic and picturesque as this Jiangnan water town.
After leaving Zhouzhuang Ancient Town, Lu Yong and Hannah drove to Jinji Lake Scenic Area.
This lake located in the SZ City Industrial Park is known as one of the largest urban lakes in China. It is also one of the very few national key 5A scenic spots in the country that is open to the public free of charge.
Although there are no special amusement facilities here, Jinji Lake attracts countless tourists with its unique charm.
The two of them strolled along the lake, feeling the breeze on their faces and listening to the water gently lapping against the shore.
They empty themselves and enjoy this moment of tranquility.
The bustling city in the distance and the tranquility of the water nearby form a sharp contrast, making people feel as if they are in two completely different worlds.
"It's so comfortable here!" Hannah said with emotion, "Although there's not much to do, this feeling is really good."
Lu Yong nodded in agreement: "Yes, sometimes, what we need is this simple tranquility. We don't need too much stimulation and entertainment, we just need to slow down and feel the beauty around us."
The two strolled along the lakeside for an hour and went to Taohua Island, Jinji Lake and Moonlight Pier to check in and take photos.
Although there were not many amusement projects in these places, the two of them enjoyed themselves and enjoyed the rare tranquility and comfort.
Afterwards, they drove to the famous Pingjiang Road. Pingjiang Road Historic District is the most well-preserved area in Suzhou Ancient City and can be called a miniature of Suzhou Ancient City.
There are mostly alleys with a long history on both sides, while Pingjiang Road continues the housing layout since the Tang and Song dynasties. This old street has completely preserved the real traces of life of the Suzhou people.
"Wow, this place really has a sense of history!" Hannah shouted excitedly, "Looking at those ancient buildings and alleys, it's like traveling back to ancient times."
Lu Yong nodded with a smile and said, "Yes, this is one of the most complete ancient streets in Suzhou. The history of six or seven hundred years is no joke. Walking here, it seems that you can feel the wisdom and ingenuity of the ancients."
The two strolled along Pingjiang Road, taking photos and checking in.
They were also attracted by a cruise ship and decided to take a ride on it.
The cruise ship sailed slowly on Pingjiang Road. The two admired the scenery on both sides of the river and felt the unique charm.
After getting off the cruise ship, they came to a snack bar.
The aroma wafting from the store makes people salivate.
They ordered a special bowl of sugar porridge and tea-colored misty milk tea, and savored this authentic Suzhou delicacy.
"This sugar porridge is so delicious!" Hannah praised it highly. "It's sweet but not greasy, and it has a smooth and sticky texture. It's really a treat."
Lu Yong also nodded in agreement: "Yes, this tea-colored misty milk tea is also very good. It has a rich tea aroma and a smooth taste. It is really memorable."
The two had a great time on Pingjiang Road, seemingly forgetting the passage of time.
Until they pulled themselves out of the long history of Pingjiang Road, Lu Yong and Hannah seemed to have traveled through time and space and came to a whole new world - Taihu Xishan Scenic Area.
This is another treasure of Suzhou, which attracts countless tourists with its beautiful natural scenery, rich historical and cultural resources and unique geographical location.
The sun has not yet completely set, and there is still a brilliant sunset glow hanging in the sky, casting a mysterious veil over the entire Xishan Scenic Area.
Lu Yong and Hannah drove into the scenic area and saw the vast and boundless Taihu Lake at a glance, with rippling waves, as if it was the most exquisite masterpiece of nature.
"Wow, it's so beautiful here!" Hannah couldn't help but exclaim, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Lu, look at the lake, doesn't it look like a huge mirror, reflecting the color of the sky?"
Lu Yong smiled and nodded. He held Hannah's hand tightly and felt her excitement. "Yes, it is really beautiful here. Moreover, I heard that Xishan Scenic Area has four levels of scenery and twenty scenic spots, each with its own unique charm. Let's explore it tonight."
The two walked along the path by the lake, and the first thing that caught their eyes was the misty cloud field.
The place is shrouded in clouds and mist, like a fairyland.
They stood on a high place, looking at the mountains and lake in the distance, feeling the magnificence and vastness of nature.
"Lu, do you think this place looks like a landscape painting?" Hannah asked, her voice full of pursuit and yearning for beauty.
"Yes, it does. Moreover, this painting is alive because the scenery is changing every moment." Lu Yong replied, hugging Hannah tightly, as if to freeze this beauty in their memory forever.
Then, they came to Shuiyue to ask for tea.
There is a quaint teahouse, located by the lake, blending in with the surrounding scenery.
They walked in, ordered a pot of the best Biluochun tea, and savored the beauty of the tea fragrance and the scenery of lakes and mountains.
"This tea is delicious, with a light fragrance that seems to cleanse the soul." Hannah said. She took a sip of tea, closed her eyes, and enjoyed the tranquility and comfort.
Lu Yong also tasted the tea and nodded in agreement. "Yes, the tea here is indeed different. And, look at the scenery outside the window, it's like a flowing painting."
After tasting the tea, the two continued their journey of exploration.
They walked through the Evening Smoke of Linwu and felt the tranquility and mystery; then they came to the Sunset of West Lake and admired the lake under the setting sun, as if they saw the artistic conception in the ancient poems.
As night falls, Taihu West Mountain Scenic Area becomes more charming.
Lu Yong and Hannah rented a small table by the lake and ordered some local snacks and a bottle of red wine.
They sat by the lake, eating and drinking red wine, enjoying this rare romance and tranquility.
"Lu, look at the moon, it's so round!" Hannah said, pointing to the moon in the sky, with happiness shining in her eyes.
Lu Yong looked up at the moon, then at Hannah, his heart filled with gratitude and love. "Yes, the moon is so beautiful tonight. And, with you by my side, I feel that the whole world has become beautiful."
The two smiled at each other and continued chatting.
They talked about each other's dreams and future and shared interesting things in life.
The chattering of tourists around seemed to become their background music, adding a bit of liveliness and vitality to the night.
Suddenly, a breeze blew across the lake, bringing a cool breeze.
Hannah tightened her coat, and Lu Yong immediately draped his scarf over her shoulders.
"Thank you, Lu. You are always so considerate." Hannah said gratefully. She snuggled in Lu Yong's arms, feeling the warmth and care.
Lu Yong smiled and hugged Hannah tightly. "Nothing, I just want you to be happy. And I know you are most afraid of the cold, so of course I have to take good care of you."
The two of them snuggled together and enjoyed this beautiful night.
They knew that this moment would become a memory they would treasure forever.
The night view of Taihu West Mountain, the aroma of red wine, and each other's company...
All of this constitutes the most beautiful picture of their lives.
At this romantic moment, an unexpected episode broke the tranquility.
A puppy suddenly ran to their table, wagging its tail and looking at them, as if it was sharing this wonderful experience.
"Oh, what a cute puppy!" Hannah exclaimed in surprise. She immediately took out her phone to take a photo of the puppy. "Lu, look at its eyes, they are so bright!"
Lu Yong also looked at the puppy and nodded with a smile. "Yes, it's really cute, and it seems to like us very much."
They played with the puppy for a while and fed it some food.
The puppy seemed to appreciate their kindness and kept following them with its tail wagging.
This unexpected episode added a bit of fun and warmth to their evening.
When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Lu Yong and Hannah reluctantly left the Taihu West Mountain Scenic Area.
They looked back at this beautiful place, their hearts filled with gratitude and nostalgia.
They knew that this trip would become a star that shines forever in their lives, illuminating their way forward.
On the way back, they shared their feelings and gains with each other.
They talked about the beautiful scenery, unique culture and unforgettable moments of Taihu West Mountain.
They know that these memories will become the most precious treasures in their lives.
"Lu, if it weren't for you, I might never have come to such a beautiful place in my life." Hannah said gratefully, "This night is so beautiful. It makes me feel unprecedented happiness and satisfaction."
Lu Yong held Hannah's hand tightly and replied with a smile: "I'm also very happy that you like it here. Moreover, I think our relationship has become deeper because of these few days of play."
The two smiled at each other, their hearts filled with expectations and longings for the future. The love that is pursued together is true love.
The night at Taihu West Mountain will also become one of their precious memories. (End of this chapter)
