Chapter 812: A Small City in the North
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The next stop on the trip is a small northern city where the first bird on earth flew up and the first flowers bloomed. The Early Cretaceous fossils of “Chinese dragonbirds” found in the city bear witness to the first steps in bird origins, and the Mesozoic fossils of “Liaoning ancient fruit” are the earliest angiosperms ever discovered.
After the production team arranged for everyone to go back and rest for a day, they split up and headed to the northern town. The guest couples could split up and play. Then, they would meet in the square in front of the pagoda and carry out the rest of the trip together.
The production team had already rented an apartment for the guests in advance. Sharon and Wallace were the first to arrive. After putting down their luggage at their residence, they prepared to go to the antique street near the pagoda. They planned to walk around the antique street first before going to the square in front of the pagoda to meet the other guests.
Because the apartment rented by the production team was very close to the pagoda, Sharon and Wallace decided to walk over.
“Hubby, can you find the way to the pagoda?” Sharon changed into a light green cheongsam and black leather shoes and zipped up the back of the cheongsam in front of the mirror.
“Not really.” Wallace looked at her thin figure and deliberately teased her.
“Huh?” Sharon was somewhat vexed. Previously, she had successfully found the shop that rented traditional costumes because it was relatively close. Furthermore, Hazel and the others knew the direction. If she went out alone, she would definitely get lost.
She had a terrible sense of direction and could not tell east from west. Most of the time, she had to take many detours before reaching her destination. Later on, she simply handed the honorable task of driving to the chauffeur every time she went out or to the company.
Wallace found sunscreen, sun hat, and sunglasses and handed them to Sharon. He took his cell phone and prepared to leave. “Let’s go.”
“Wait a minute, let me turn on the navigation.” Sharon clicked on the navigation map. The jade bracelet on her wrist matched her cheongsam very well. She didn’t often wear this style of clothes, but when she tried it on occasionally, she unexpectedly felt that it looked very good. The cheongsam could perfectly show the lines of her body.
Wallace took the cell phone from her hand and turned off the screen. He looked at her gently and smiled. “Are you sure you can find it by turning on the GPS?” “Just tell me the direction and I’ll be able to find it.” Sharon smiled and took the
cell phone back from Wallace.
The voice navigation was all instructions like “Set off east” or “Set off west”, but Sharon couldn’t tell the direction. She remembered that in high school, geography class involved the topic of direction identification. After class, she pestered the geography teacher for a long time and the geography teacher said helplessly, “This child can’t even tell east from west.” Sharon was also very vexed.
“Let’s go. I took a look at the map just now. The pagoda is very close to us. There’s no need to navigate.” After the two of them went out, Wallace locked the door and placed the key in his pocket.
There were many antique buildings near the apartment arranged by the production team. There was also a City God Temple nearby. From afar, the eaves of the temple were carved with beams and painted buildings. The colorful paintings were vivid and lifelike. There were all kinds of flowers painted on them. There were also vases and porcelain basins of various shapes. Many of the red paint on the outer layer of the wooden structure had already peeled off, but it did not reduce its beauty and craftsmanship.
A towering tree could be seen outside the temple. Like a guardian god, it guarded this temple, this pure world, day and night. There was also an acacia tree filled with pink flowers. The tree was taller than the gray temple, adding a hint of romance to the quiet, elegant, and solemn temple.
“Hubby, let’s go to that temple to take a look first. We’ll go to Antique Street later.” Sharon held Wallace’s hand and walked towards the City God Temple.
At this moment, Sharon was like a child. Everything she saw was novel. Every flower, grass, tree, brick, and tile could arouse her endless interest.
Sharon was like a cockroach that couldn’t be killed when facing the difficulties the Harris family threw at her. In the entertainment industry, she was full of tenacity and refused to give up. She was strong, fearless, and strong in her heart, but even so, she still revealed her childishness in front of the people she liked and loved.
Wallace smiled at her child-like smile. No matter where she wanted to go, he was willing to accompany her, and he was only willing to go where she was..
