Urban Film and Television: Jiang Lai is the Top Choice

Peng Jiahe's legs trembled as she looked at Yang Chu, pretending to be nonchalant, and said in a slightly trembling voice, "Of course I'm fine!"

Yang Chu didn't expose Peng Jiahe, and said with a mischievous smile, "Are you sure you're alright?"

"Of course it's okay."

"Oh! How about we go on the giant swing later? I heard it's even more thrilling."

Upon hearing that he was going to ride the giant swing, Peng Jiahe's legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground. Pointing at Yang Chu, he cursed, "You bastard, you son of a bitch, I bet you're up to no good. Do you only feel happy when you see me make a fool of myself?"

Yang Chu laughed and said, "Alright, stand up! What kind of behavior is it to sit on the ground? There's a place to rest over there."

Peng Jiahe pouted and said, "My legs are weak, I can't stand up."

"Hahaha! Let's see if you're still stubborn now. Just like you said before, if you're too scared to play, you're too scared to play. There's nothing shameful about it. You insisted on dragging me along to play. Now look what happened, we're both weak in the knees."

Peng Jiahe said with a wry smile, "I was just making excuses not to play! Who told you to provoke me like that?"

Yang Chu smiled and helped Peng Jiahe to a chair. He couldn't very well say, "I noticed you've been feeling a bit down lately, so I'm trying to cheer you up!"

Yang Chu couldn't say these words now; if he did, the roller coaster ride would have been pointless, so he could only smile.

After the two had rested, they saw many photos at the roller coaster exit.

Yang Chu then realized that there were camera devices in the most thrilling spots, preserving everyone's expressions during the roller coaster ride.

Yang Chu looked at Peng Jiahe and said, "Should we take the photos back?"

Peng Jiahe nodded repeatedly and said, "Of course I want it!"

After saying that, Peng Jiahe went to find photos of the two of them.

Peng Jiahe quickly found the photo, handed it to Yang Chu, and said, "I didn't expect you to have such a big mouth!"

Yang Chu chuckled and said, "Your mouth isn't small either!"

Peng Jiahe curled her lip and pointed to someone behind her, saying, "This mouth is even bigger; it feels like it could eat my head in one bite."

The two of them laughed and played on many more rides, and by the time they came out of the amusement park, the sun was almost setting.

Yang Chu looked at Peng Jiahe and said, "Let's go, I'll take you home!"

Peng Jiahe nodded and asked Yang Chu to take her home.

When Yang Chu saw Peng Jiahe to the door, he saw Gan Jing there as well.

Yang Chu looked at Peng Jiahe and said, "Won't they feel awkward if we get off the bus now?"

Peng Jiahe rolled her eyes at Yang Chu, then opened the car door without saying a word and ran straight to Gan Jing, saying, "Sister Gan Jing, what brings you here?"

Seeing that Peng Jiahe was already chatting with Gan Jing, Yang Chu felt it would be impolite of him not to get out of the car now.

So he had no choice but to open the car door, walk up to Gan Jing and the others, and look at Lu Yuan, saying, "Are you afraid I'll kidnap Peng Jiahe? You even called Miss Gan over."

Peng Jiahe knew that Yang Chu was making excuses for the two of them, so he rolled his eyes at Yang Chu and said nothing.

Lu Yuan, on the other hand, was a bit thick-skinned. He just smiled and looked at Yang Chu without saying a word.

Gan Jing, being rather shy, smiled awkwardly and said, "How could that be! Lu Yuan was just a little worried. He went out this morning and hasn't come back yet, so he asked me to come and ask him."

Yang Chu smiled but didn't respond to Gan Jing's words. After all, Yang Chu's words were just giving Gan Jing and Lu Yuan a way out.

Unexpectedly, Gan Jing actually started explaining to Yang Chu, which just shows that Gan Jing was guilty!

Peng Jiahe couldn't stand it anymore and looked at Yang Chu, saying, "You've already taken me home, aren't you going back to your hotel?"

Yang Chu realized that Peng Jiahe was trying to smooth things over for Gan Jing, so he had no choice but to go along with it, saying, "Alright, alright, you're clearly kicking me while I'm down! Fine, I'm leaving then, I have things to do tomorrow!"

After saying that, Yang Chu walked to the car, waved to Peng Jiahe and the others, and drove away.

After Yang Chu left, Lu Yuan looked at Peng Jiahe and said, "Where did you two go today? We haven't heard from you all day!"

Peng Jiahe handed Lu Yuan and the others a photo of them riding the roller coaster and said, "We went to the amusement park. Can I go back and rest now? I'm really tired after playing all day."

Gan Jing and Lu Yuan looked at the photos with some surprise and asked curiously, "Why did you two decide to go to the amusement park?"

"If you want to go, then go!"

After saying that, Peng Jiahe snatched the photo from Lu Yuan's hand and went back to her room.

Gan Jing smiled and shook his head, saying, "Maybe if Yang Chu takes Peng Jiahe out to play more, Jiahe will definitely be fine."

What was said in jest may have been unintentional, but what was said in jest made Lu Yuan think. Gan Jing may have just said it casually, but his words made Lu Yuan seem thoughtful.

Next day:

Yang Chu checked the address on the property deed and arrived at the courtyard house where he had signed in yesterday.

To Yang Chu's dismay, this courtyard house wasn't too far from Peng Jiahe's grandmother's house.

Grandma Peng's house is also a small courtyard house, but it has been improved later.

Yang Chu's courtyard house is a typical old Shanghai-style courtyard house, with a touch of old Western-style house style.

After Yang Chu opened the door and entered the courtyard, she couldn't help but look at the window on the second floor. She had a feeling that there was a beautiful woman in a cheongsam holding a pink handkerchief watching her.

I must say, this courtyard is quite nice, small and exquisite, with bluestone paving that exudes the marks of time.

In the center of the courtyard stood a well, its water crystal clear. Several trees surrounded it, but Yang Chu didn't recognize their species.

After passing through the courtyard, you enter the second section of the siheyuan (traditional courtyard house).

This is where the main house and side rooms are located. The main house is tall and spacious, with carved beams and painted rafters, showing its former glory.

The side rooms are relatively small, but they are decorated in a warm and comfortable style. The furniture inside is all old-fashioned and exudes a faint scent of wood.

After visiting the courtyard house, Yang Chu really felt its charm.

This courtyard is not a standard siheyuan (traditional courtyard house); it can only be described as a two-story, two-section courtyard house in the style of a siheyuan, but it does have some of the old Shanghai style.

During his previous visit, Yang Chu noticed that several staircases leading to the second floor were somewhat rotten, so he didn't dare go up to the second floor.

Yang Chu was now a little scared. Many parts of this courtyard house were made of wood, and he wondered if those wooden parts had rotted away.

This gave Yang Chu a headache. He didn't know if this courtyard house was considered a historical site and if it could be renovated.

So Yang Chu took out his phone and dialed Lu Yuan's number.

"What's the matter?"

Yang Chu sighed and said, "I bought a yard, but I don't know if I can renovate it. Could you ask Gan Jing to come over?"
