Chapter 74: Day 48 of a Romance. Although the hotel...

although they had arranged a car, there were so many things going on at the hotel that it wasn't always possible to pick up and drop off tourists. So, at first, the schedule was chaotic, with pick-ups coming when needed. Now, it's settled into a fixed schedule: one drop-off in the morning and one pick-up in the afternoon. The rest of the time, tourists have to find their own transportation back to the hotel. While this was a bit inconvenient at first, it's become a good idea over time.

Wu Yunxi smiled and nodded, then grabbed her belongings and headed to the ski resort entrance. After buying a ticket, Wu Yunxi used it to enter, found a staff member, changed into her ski clothes, chose a snowboard, and followed the staff's instructions to find an instructor.

Many people, when they first start skiing, think snowboards are cool and choose them. The ski instructor, having seen this before, didn't show any change in expression when she saw Wu Yunxi approaching with a snowboard, but did explain a few things before starting to teach.

"While snowboarding is cool, it requires more balance. If it's your first time skiing, we recommend starting with a snowboard."

Wu Yunxi smiled at this suggestion. The staff had already mentioned this to her when she was choosing a snowboard, but she preferred snowboarding and ignored their advice. Of course, Wu Yunxi's personality was such that she wouldn't change her mind until she'd hit a wall.

"Hi~"

Wu Yunxi didn't elaborate, simply saying she heard what you said, but she hadn't changed her mind and still wanted to learn snowboarding.

The coach didn't say much. After all, it was a personal choice. Regardless of the student's feelings, learning anything was fine; for the coach, it was all a paycheck.

"Then let's get started."

The coach switched to a snowboard and taught Wu Yunxi how to get on and stand up. Once Wu Yunxi was standing, he began to explain how to brake. Seeing Wu Yunxi's rapid learning, the coach was convinced that she had excellent balance skills, so as he continued teaching her, he wasn't worried about her complaining about injuries.

After all, this situation has happened before, but many people, like Wu Yunxi, refuse to listen. Better-tempered people simply switch to skis after a fall, but those with a bad temper might even complain about the coach and file a complaint.

The coach, feeling aggrieved, said he'd already advised the client beforehand, but what could he do if he refused to listen?

So, whenever he encountered such a client, the coach would always offer a few words to avoid further complications. From a coach's perspective, Wu Yunxi felt it was fine, especially since the client didn't repeatedly ask questions, and besides, such questions were actually a responsible behavior for the client.

After completing the full course smoothly under the coach's guidance, Wu Yunxi felt he had it right! For his second run, he skated completely solo, with the coach watching from the sidelines to ensure everything was alright before moving on to the next student.

After skating the beginner track a few times, Wu Yunxi moved on to the intermediate track. After much deliberation, Wu Yunxi decided to give it a try. As he made his way from the bottom to the top of the intermediate track, the

slope seemed a bit steep. However, watching the people zipping by and curiously imagining himself skiing down there, he mustered up the courage to give it a try. After getting ready on his snowboard, Wu Yunxi slid down with all his might. The slope, which had seemed steep from the top, felt quite manageable once he was actually on it. Wu Yunxi quickly mastered his balance and soon reached the bottom. He then took the slide to the top and tried again.

Wu Yunxi repeated this throughout the day, only to find his legs were sore by the end. Lunch was served at the ski resort. Since the food was prepared to avoid hungry customers, it wasn't particularly delicious, but it wasn't terrible either.

Wu Yunxi, being a picky eater, didn't eat much. After leaving the resort, Wu Yunxi sent a message to Kwon Ji-yong, along with a photo she had asked the staff to take of her skiing. There is a fee for taking photos. Of course, the photographer will go skiing with you and find a suitable place to help take photos. It is up to you how many photos you need.

Wu Yunxi selected three or four photos and had them developed on the spot. Then he paid the money and came out with the developed photos in his hand. There

was an additional fee for developing photos. Wu Yunxi also received electronic photos. The one he sent to Quan Zhilong was the idea photo.

[Oppa, skiing is really fun. Let's go together next time. Photo.jpg - Wu Yunxi]

After seeing that the message had been sent, Wu Yunxi glanced at the time. The hotel car had not arrived yet, but if he had to wait here, he would have to wait for more than an hour. For Wu Yunxi, this more than an hour was a bit of a waste. After thinking about it, he went to the bus station that the driver had pointed out before to wait for the bus. Fortunately, the bus runs every fifteen minutes, and Wu Yunxi waited here for a short time before it arrived.

After boarding the bus, Wu Yunxi realized she didn't have any change. The conductor finally gave her change, and the single note turned into a jingling pile of coins. If you didn't look at the amount, you'd feel like you were carrying a lot of money—it felt incredibly heavy.

Nowadays, few people carry cash, but Wu Yunxi wasn't in China, so she kept some cash in her bag just in case. It came in handy, though it only made her backpack heavier.

After getting off the bus near her hotel, Wu Yunxi decided to shower before heading out to eat, even though she was starving.

"Eat," she said, "I'm not quite sure." The restaurant was one that Kwon Ji-yong had recommended, but Wu Yunxi hadn't chosen to eat there on her first day. She was exhausted after skiing today, so she wanted to have a good meal.

Arriving at the restaurant, she saw quite a few people there, and she couldn't help but sigh in agreement. It was indeed a highly recommended place.

Kwon Ji-yong had recommended it because he'd eaten there before, and Wu Yunxi had also looked it up on her phone. The fact that so many people had recommended it made her even more excited.

Because Wu Yu thought you were dining alone, she chose a quiet corner. After the waiter handed Wu Yunxi the menu and took her order, she left. A moment later, he returned and poured her a cup of tea.

"Thank you,"

Wu Yunxi said, habitually, but didn't take a sip. She wasn't a fan of bitter drinks like tea or coffee, and even her alcoholic beverages tended to be sweet. A lot of the wines at home were of that type, and some were kept out of pure curiosity.

While waiting for their food, Quan Ji-yong replied to Wu Yunxi's message. Wu Yunxi, who had been looking around bored, no longer cared about what was going on around her and focused on replying.

"The photos are so cool! Let's go together next time! I just finished work today and have to film my own variety show later." — Quan Ji-yong.

Quan Ji-yong discussed his upcoming plans with Wu Yunxi and sent her a photo of the food.

"Yeah, I just ordered too. This is the restaurant Oppa recommended. I was so excited when I came." ——Wu Yunxi

Wu Yunxi didn't take photos of the restaurant to show Quan Jiyong. After all, there were people around, and it was unavoidable to photograph others. If she didn't like being photographed, then surely others would feel the same way? After mentally reviewing the possible scenarios, Wu Yunxi decisively gave up on posting photos.

However, Quan Jiyong would have known which restaurant it was even without photos.

After chatting for a while, the food arrived. Wu Yunxi did take photos of her food for Quan Jiyong this time, but ultimately, deciding that texting wasn't the right way to chat while eating, Quan Jiyong decisively called him on video. The two of them ate while chatting on the phone, and after finishing their meal, they exchanged a few more words before reluctantly hanging up.

After the call, Quan Jiyong went to work, while Wu Yunxi strolled back to the hotel.

She didn't go to the hot springs that night, but she was still sore from the intense workout, so she took a short soak in her room. After relaxing, she returned to bed, texted Quan Jiyong goodnight, and fell asleep.

I slept really well that night. Does this mean it's better to sleep after exercise?

When Wu Yunxi thought about this, she recalled someone she'd accused of being excessive one night, whispering this to her, and the state of their relationship at the time. Wu Yunxi's face suddenly flushed, and after silently cursing Quan Zhilong, she slowly shifted her focus and began to feel better.

She washed her face thoroughly in the bathroom, patting it. Looking in the mirror, she could still see the redness, but it took a while for it to return to its normal color. Wu Yunxi felt a little embarrassed at the sudden thought.

After getting ready, she carefully reviewed the itinerary Quan Zhilong had planned for her. It was for four days, but Quan Zhilong's plan wasn't the same as Wu Yunxi's. He prioritized the places he recommended, then arranged them based on proximity, allowing Wu Yunxi to choose which ones she wanted.

"I have to say, Oppa's arrangements this time are quite good~" Wu Yunxi sighed

after looking at the plan, then decided on her destination for the day, changed her clothes, put on her backpack and went out.
