Chapter 129 [God’s Arrangement] (Part 2)

"What's this?" I sighed in a blanket.

"Dongba Divine Garden." Fang Nan thought for a while: "I only know that 'Dongba' is a respectful title for leaders, powerhouses or elders in the ancient Naxi tribe. It seems to be a little mythical and religious. I just heard that there are many strange Naxi sculptures and artworks here. It has been three days since I came to Lijiang, and I have only had time to come and take a look today." She looked back at me: "Let's go down and have a walk."

"I... how do I get off the car like this?" I smiled bitterly and waved the blanket on my upper body. I wanted to refuse, but I saw the pleading in Fang Nan's eyes, and I couldn't help but feel soft. It seemed that I had never done anything for her... When I was working in her company, I caused a lot of trouble in most cases. Later, after having emotional entanglement with her, it seemed that I had never done anything for her.

Thinking of this, I owe her a lot.

Under the influence of this compensation mentality, I felt a little sensible, go, go! It’s not that I really want to run naked, at least I can still wrap a blanket.

What is this little thing for this woman who loves so deeply?

I simply took off my shoes and socks, wrapped it in this blanket and jumped out of the car. Inside the blanket, I was only wearing a pair of underwear. Fang Nan was extremely surprised to see that I was willing to do such a thing for her, so he quickly followed me with a happy smile on his face.

There are still many tourists here, especially foreigners. My "weird" outfit immediately attracted the attention of others.

The blanket on me was obviously also the local Naxi ethnic handicrafts, with strong Naxi style patterns and patterns. I was wrapped in the blanket tightly, walking barefoot on the cold ground. In this way, many tourists immediately mistook my temporary emergency dress for the Naxi ethnic minority costume.

Some curious foreigners even came to chat with us, praising me with interest that this outfit was so cool. Some people asked me where I bought it. Some even took the camera and took a photo at me.

My face turned red and I randomly sent out these curious tourists. Nan seemed to want to laugh next to me, but she was afraid of making me unhappy and forced her to laugh and looked at me carefully: "Chen Yang, I'm sorry, we wouldn't get off the bus if I had known... Otherwise, let's go back."

"No. Keep watching." I said helplessly: "Anyway, I have been visited by people. Now I will not see it when I run back. Then, wouldn't it be in vain for what I was visited just now?"

I don’t know much about those sculptures, and I don’t have much interest in murals and cloth paintings. This place is built manually, and the murals and cloth paintings are also made by craftsmen, not cultural relics. To put it bluntly, it is just a scenic spot that attracts tourists with the sign of national culture.

However, Fang Nan and I were more interested in the ancient hieroglyphs of the Naxi people.

"Chen Yang, do you know what this text means?" Fang Nan suddenly pointed to a pattern drawn with colorful paint on the wooden board in front of him.

This is a hieroglyph. In terms of shape, it looks like a man and a woman are leaning tightly together, and above the two people, there are two strokes that seem to represent smoke...

I glanced at it twice and shook my head: "I don't know."

"This hieroglyph actually means the word 'love'." The tour guide at a scenic spot next to it explained attentively: "Look, how close is this man and woman, it is a pair of close lovers, and there is a cloud of smoke on their heads, as if it symbolizes that their feelings are gone forever."

After listening to this explanation, my heart moved. At this moment, suddenly, a warm and soft little hand was stuffed into my palm. I looked at Fang Nan sideways, but found that she was also looking at me, with deep affection in her eyes, which was enough to make people melt...

"Aren't you angry with me anymore? Don't you hate me anymore?" We returned to the car and sat next to Fang Nan. I asked her with a low smile.

"When have I been angry with you? When have I hated you?" Fang Nan's eyebrows were full of melancholy: "I just hate myself, why, why can't I let you go..."

I sighed and reached out to put my hand over her shoulder. Fang Nan tilted her head softly and leaned on my shoulder. Then she asked softly: "Chen Yang, where is your girlfriend Yan Di? I heard that she went to Canada, right?"

I didn't want to lie to her, so I said directly: "Well, and she has come to Lijiang with me this time."

"Oh..." Fang Nan responded softly, and then suddenly said: "I'm sorry, don't get me wrong, I have no other intentions."

My hand that pinched her shoulders couldn't help but tighten, and said calmly: "No, I should be sorry for you."

"Maybe in the hearts of others, I should be a very despicable bitch..." Fang Nan's voice was very weak: "I am much older than you, and I am already an old woman in her thirties. But I fell in love with you, a young man. Moreover, even though I knew you had a girlfriend, I was still pestering you..."

I immediately interrupted her, pinched her hand, and said in a deep voice: "If you say this, it will only make me feel more ashamed." I held her hand and said seriously: "Fang Nan, you are a good woman. You are really a good woman. But I am sorry to you. I am afraid I can't give you happiness... I can't afford it. I feel very guilty because I don't want you to waste your youth like me... Do you understand? What I said to you in the tavern this afternoon is that I mean. It's not that I reject you thousands of miles away, nor that I'm ruthless. It's just... I don't want you to sacrifice and suffer for me. Do you understand?"

Although Fang Nan's face turned dark, he suddenly asked softly: "Chen Yang, can I ask you a question?"

"Um?"

"If..." Fang Nan looked at me carefully: "If, I met you before your girlfriend, would you accept me? Will you think I am older than you? Will you be discouraged from me because of my family background? I know when we first met, I was still very fierce to you..."

"How could I dislike you?" I looked at her and said softly: "Fang Nan, being favored by you will only surprise me and flatter me. Really! You are from a famous family and are so noble and beautiful... Oh, who said you are old? Do you know? When I first saw you, I couldn't help but wonder; why is the boss of this company such a young beauty? I thought you were only in your early twenties at the time."

Although I was saying something to make her happy, it was also true. Fang Nan's appearance was indeed enough to make many women envious and even jealous. In her early thirties, her skin was still so delicate, smooth and tender, like a woman in her twenties. In addition to her beautiful appearance, she also had a bit of the lazy and seductive charm of a mature woman that young girls could not possess.

"Then..." Fang Nan said tremblingly. She suddenly became extremely nervous and looked at me quietly: "Have you... ever liked me? I'm sincere! Even if it's only a little bit..."

After asking this, she looked at me with anticipation, with a clear expression of worry about gains and losses on her face.

"Yes." I answered very seriously. I looked at her the same: "Sincere."

Fang Nan's whole body relaxed, and a surprise smile appeared on her face...

We drove back then. However, Fang Nan suggested that we drive around the highway under the Yulong Snow Mountain, and take advantage of the sun's downwards to enjoy the scenery of the snow-capped mountains.

Actually, I know that this is an excuse Fang Nan deliberately made. She knows that once we return to Lijiang, I will leave her. Now, she just wants to find a little opportunity. Stay with me as much as possible for a while.

I felt guilty about this woman who was tortured by love, so I naturally agreed to her.

We drove slowly along the road under the snow mountain. The towering Jade Dragon Snow Mountain was less than a thousand meters away from us, but none of us went to see the snow mountain. I had already driven it. Fang Nan tilted his head, leaned on my shoulder, and put his hands on my waist. Immersed in a satisfied happiness.

We drove along the highway to the south of Yulong Snow Mountain. We should have turned around here, but looking at the pitiful gaze in Fang Nan's eyes, I felt soft and blurted out: "We don't rush to go back, drive forward for a while and see what scenery there is in front of me."

In this way, our car continued to drive down the road, and it was getting farther and farther away from Lijiang City.

Until the sun sets completely. I looked at the time and it was getting late. Then I sighed. Fang Nan also understood that at this time, we had to go back. She didn't say anything, but just snuggled in my arms.

It happened that such a coincidence... Just when I turned my head on the spot and was about to drive back, suddenly, the car engine made a noise, and then I felt the body of the car shock! The car moved forward for more than ten meters powerlessly, and finally stopped.

I tried to start it twice, but the engine seemed to be coughing weakly with bronchitis...

Hell! This is a defending carriage!! Shouldn’t the engine performance of the defending off-road vehicle be very awesome?

I made a few more attempts and finally gave up. I looked outside. It was dark and the sun had set below the horizon. The night was coming, and there were wilderness on both sides. Only this road was lying alone in the wilderness... I sighed helplessly and smiled bitterly at Fang Nan in my arms, "It seems that our car is broken."
