Chapter 120 Small town couple
"Auntie, how are they?"

Xu Yiru poked her head out of her room, looked at Han Yi standing in the hotel corridor, and asked in a low voice.

"I'm jet-lagged. I ran with us for a day, and I was frightened just now, and my energy was exhausted, so I'll sleep for a while."

Han Yi tilted his head and looked towards the gap behind Xu Yiru.

"Yuzhen, are you okay?"

"I drive on flat roads, of course it's fine."

A few seconds later, another small head popped out from above Xu Yiru, with a smile of being cared for and benefited from the corner of his mouth.

"It's only two hours."

"Then shall we go out and get something to eat?"

Han Yi suggested.

"By the way, pack them back."

"You guys go." Zhao Youzhen also put the mobile phone in the gap where Han Yi could see, "08:30 there is a meeting at TGO...the first manager's general meeting."

"clear."

Han Yi nodded, but did not propose to participate in person.

As the sole investor and top decision maker, he cannot do everything by himself.The affairs of each section are handed over to professionals. He only needs to see the submitted report and sign the final decision with a check.

There are Mad Decent co-founder Kevin Kusatsu, Horsch managers Jason Aron and Anthony Lee, Electric Feels mastermind Austin Rosen, and Ben Mo, who is still in Los Angeles at this time. Sen, coupled with Zhao Youzhen, who is becoming more mature and understands his own intentions and plans more and more, Han Yi believes that this joint meeting of managers will never be empty talk without any achievements.

"Then let's pack it up and eat it right away?"

"Okay." Xu Yiru agreed.

"That……"

Han Yi took a step back and opened his arms.

"Let's go? What are you two doing?"

"The bed is quite messy...and sister Yuzhen just finished taking a shower, so it's not convenient."

"Yeah, I've got nothing on."

Zhao Youzhen rolled his eyes, revealing a sly smile.

Hearing the words of the head above his head, Xu Yiru obviously froze for a moment, and then disappeared into the gap between the door frame.

"Yes, indeed not."

A few seconds later, Xu Yiru poked his head out again, confirming with a serious face.

"Okay, okay." Han Yi sighed helplessly, he didn't bite the hook that was too obvious, "You can do whatever you say."

"Why, don't you believe me?" Xu Yiru blinked his left eye, "Come in and have a look."

In line with Xiaoru's expression, Yuzhen also took out an index finger, and hooked Chao Hanyi.

Standing on the spot and tilting his head for a while, Han Yi stepped forward.

"Okay, since you are so persistent, then I..."

Before he finished speaking, the door slammed shut a few inches from the tip of his nose, leaving two joyous and playful laughter outside the door.

"Let's go."

Five minutes later, Xiao Ru, who was pink and tender all over, appeared in front of Han Yi wearing a headband.

Looking behind her, Youzhen was standing there pretty and lively, arms crossed.She also raised a few fingers and waved them, as a greeting to him, with a lazy, charming and complacent look in her eyes.

On the white bathrobe, the long hair that was almost waist-length was casually draped, and the roots of the hair tips that were invisible just now were wetly stuck to the shoulders.

"Sensitivity test...you failed."

Xu Yiru lightly touched Han Yi's upper arm with his fist.

"Let's go, there's no good show to watch."

"I'm not watching a good show." Han Yi murmured softly behind Xu Yiru, "I'm cooperating with you in the performance."

"Okay, okay, thank you for the best actor."

This hotel called La Playa Carmel is not big. It is said to be a hotel, but it actually feels more like a slightly larger private house.The front, back, left and right are all residential villas, which also deepens this impression.

Carmel, the English full name is Carmel-by-the-Sea, Carmel by the Sea.Just hearing the name, people can instantly grasp the world-famous scenery of this escape town, which is 10 minutes south of Monterey, a small town two hours away from San Francisco.

There are 3722 streets from south to north, and [-] streets from east to west. This town is not as big as the USC campus, and there are only [-] residents in total.This is a small number that is unimaginable in any county in East Asia.

Walk along the country road called "Royal Avenue" in front of the hotel, but it is neither royal, nor avenue, nor traffic-marked, and walk north for one block, and then on Seventh Avenue-this town is really He likes to exaggerate - turn right, Han Yi and Xu Yiru walked slowly towards the town center guided by Yelp.

Today's sunset time should be around [-]:[-], but it is almost [-] o'clock now. The sky of Carmel by the sea is still not completely dark, but there is a smear that I don't know how to describe in words, so I can only take "" "Night in the City of La La Land" to describe the strange blue.

Of course, this movie, which has not yet been released at this time, has spent a lot of effort on filter color correction, but Han Yi feels that the reason why the filter is needed is that the director wants people all over the world to see the true colors of California evening .

There are no street lights in the town, and the windows on both sides of the street occasionally reveal a dim yellow light.There are no cicadas, just the rustling of the sea wind through the hedges and the caress of the waves on the sand.Walking on the right side of the uphill road with a small range but still feeling like climbing, Han Yi could even hear Xu Yiru's snort.

"A young man's romance, is it fickle or sincere?
Is the romance of a teenager hot or melancholy? "

Han Yi was startled by the sound of retro music that suddenly sounded in his pocket. He took it out and found that he accidentally touched the Apple Music that he had just listened to and forgot to quit.

"Sorry, I ran into it."

"It's okay, it sounds nice."

Xu Yiru gently pressed Han Yi's wrist.

"Let it go on."

"Would you like to turn up the volume?"

"No, that's fine."

"You're either in the low point of pain, or you're enjoying the high point of pleasure,

The romance of a teenager is a mixture of various emotions.

They say we are different,
We don't have the power to choose,
not being able to decide for myself,
I don't know what's good and what's bad..."

As a result, the chants of Ricky Nelson 59 years ago sounded in the quiet streets of the town.

"What's this song called?"

"A Teenager's Romance, by Ricky Nelson."

"Sounds good, send me."

Xu Yiru clasped her two index fingers, put her back behind her back, and nodded in approval.

"Does Bee Gees sound good?"

"No." Xu Yiru replied without hesitation.

"Which song is it that makes you like it so much?" Han Yi was a little curious.

"I'll listen to you when I have a chance." Xu Yiru replied vaguely, and then threw out a question, "By the way, have you read the novel I gave you before?"

"I've been so busy recently that I haven't had time yet."

Han Yi turned to look at her with an apologetic smile.

"But it's right next to my bed, and I keep it safe."

"It's fine if you don't lose it." Xu Yiru waved his hand nonchalantly.

"What should I pack for them to go back? It seems that there is no choice."

He has already walked to the so-called town center, but Xiaoru feels that his words echo.In this typical North American small town, non-tourist seasons and weekends basically follow the law of sunrise and sunset.

A few restaurants are still open, but with few diners.Two or three elderly people with very pale skin and hair stood at the street corner chatting and cast curious eyes on them.There are Mediterranean-style villas on the other side of the street, and Tudor-style cottages on the other side of the road. The irregular eaves and crooked windows are cute in a different way.

"Keep saying you love me, there's nothing they can do.

This is a teenage romance,
Ongoing romance. "

Han Yi's cell phone is still playing the old Doo-Wop.Standing at the intersection of Seventh Avenue and San Carlos Street, Xu Yiru felt like she had fallen into Alice's Wonderland.With the natural filter of indigo blue mixed with a little Prussian blue, the light shining in the small restaurant looks more like a door to a different dimension.

"Let me see, Italian food, Italian food, Italian food..."

"It's not impossible, but is there a choice that is more suitable for the aunts and the others?" The good daughter-in-law Xu Yiru always puts the preferences of the elders first, "We eat Western food at noon, and I worry that they will not get used to it."

"There's a sushi restaurant, Sushi Heaven, that's still open."

"It's cold, the elderly may not be able to eat it, and Sister Youzhen has been..."

Realizing that he was talking too much, Xu Yiru consciously stopped talking.

"Ah, there's Chinese food! I didn't expect that."

Han Yi's voice rose half a minute, then fell again.

"But it looks like the kind that sells orange chicken, do you want to go?"

"Talking is better than nothing, let them make some fried rice and fried noodles, give us some seasonings, I'll take them back and make some simple processing... Where is it? Hurry up, I'm afraid they will close the door."

"Here."

Han Yi glanced at the phone map, and joked while taking Xiaoru north.

"Can it be processed again? Otherwise, let's borrow their kitchen."

"As long as they are willing, you can help me, and I will finish it in 15 minutes."

The town center is already very small, and this Chinese restaurant is only two or three sentences away from them.In the blink of an eye, Han Yi and Xu Yiru turned into a path paved with gravel.Red wildflowers that neither of them knew were blooming on the wall on the right, and at the farthest end on the left was a small shop built of red bricks and brown wood. English cursive script reads:

Tommy's Wok.

Tommy Stir Fry.

After silently reading the name of the shop in his mind, and confirming that it was consistent with the information on Yelp, Han Yi opened the door and entered this small shop with only twelve tables.

"Welcome to Tommy's Wok, how many..."

The bell at the door rang, and the boss standing behind the counter raised his head reflexively.This is a stocky, middle-aged man with a crop-shaved head and stiff black-rimmed glasses. He wears a pink Polo shirt that only Asian men would wear, and is tucked into tight jeans.

"Chinese?"

Seeing the rare faces of the same race, the man was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled more enthusiastically.

"Yes." Han Yi replied with a friendly smile, "Is it still open, boss?"

"Open, open, we don't close until 10 minutes away." The man nodded, his teeth showing more and more, "What do you two want to eat, I'll ask the back kitchen to make it for you...We eat it ourselves. Braised pork Do you want food?"

"Boss, are you... from Treasure Island?" Xu Yiru asked with some surprise, that strong Hokkien accent coupled with the recommendation of Braised Pork Rice made her quickly come to this conclusion.

"you too?"

"Yup!"

"I'm from Taipei, where are you from?"

"I'm also from Taipei."

I met my fellow countrymen in an unexpected place. Although Taipei is very big and there are many people in Taiwan in the United States, they should be the only two of them with this accent in Carmel by the sea.

As small as the interval between eager conversations with the boss, Han Yi glanced at this restaurant, which looked small but was very warmly furnished.There are still 10 minutes before closing, and the diners are only a pair of backpackers in the corner.And another pair of Asian mother and son sitting at a two-person table next to the counter obviously do not belong to the category of guests.

Wearing a long floral dress, a young woman who looks old but still has charm is scrolling through Weibo, while the little boy sitting opposite her, who also has a crew cut, is listlessly practicing... Chinese calligraphy copybooks.

"Tell him what you want to eat." Noticing Han Yi's attention, the young woman raised her head and added kindly, "You can eat spicy food, and you can make it too."

"From Rongcheng, boss lady?"

Han Yi didn't need to guess, he also knew the relationship between the couple. In this remote town, two Asian men and women of the same age appeared at the same time. If they weren't husband and wife, it would be a strange thing.

"what."

The proprietress laughed in disbelief.

"You too."

"Me too."

"In other words, you..."

Of course the boss heard the conversation between Han Yi and his wife, his eyes widened, and his tone was filled with the joy of winning the lottery.

"It's also a treasure island, a continent?"

Hearing the boss's question, Xu Yiru and Han Yi looked at each other, and then the corners of their mouths spilled out from the corners of their mouths in unison. In the eyes of outsiders, it was a very sweet, tacit smile that only husband and wife can have.

It is a matter of course that only the right identity and the right time can be tempered.

"Well, Mr. Han and... Mrs. Han."

In this small town that no one knows, Xu Yiru decided to be naughty and self-willed.She pointed her two index fingers at herself and Han Yi at the same time, tilted her head, and said.

"We are... Mr. Tommy and Mrs. Tommy."

The boss responded with a hearty smile.

"Which one is with you, Mrs. Tommy." The proprietress gave him a sideways look, and said angrily, "That's Lao Liu, you can call me... Sister Huang."

"Brother Liu, Sister Huang." Han Yi called out very affectionately.

"Are you here to travel?"

"Honeymoon... oh, it hurts!"

Tiezhang taught the flamboyant Han Yi a lesson, and Xu Yiru imitated his example and gave him a coquettish look in the way of Sister Huang.

"Take his mother and grandma to travel to San Francisco, just opened for a day, rest here for a night."

I must be honest, after all, I have to order a meal for five people.

"Understand, understand... Hey, by the way, I forgot to order for you." Lao Liu patted his forehead, "Is the stewed pork rice I just mentioned good? Ah, and, wife, do you want to make two hometown dishes too?" Give them food."

"I must do it." Sister Huang directly switched to dialect, "In this place, I'm used only a few times a year... What do you want to eat, Xiao Han? Kung Pao chicken, fish-flavored shredded pork, okay? We don’t have a lot of ingredients here, so we can make something simple.”

"You can do whatever suits you." Han Yi quickly showed a thankful smile.

"Okay, I see, you guys sit down first... Lao Liu, is that stewed pork rice from the pot?"

"Well, take a look in the pot, it should still be on fire."

Old Liu turned his head and called out to Sister Huang, who had already entered the kitchen swiftly, and then stretched out his arms, motioning for Han Yi and Xu Yiru to sit down.

"You guys take a break first, you'll be fine soon... have some tea."

"thank you boss."

Seeing the cup in front of him being filled with hot tea, Han Yi nodded politely and smiled.

"None of us expected...to meet our compatriots here."

"Yes, it's a small town. We have only one Chinese restaurant here. Are there ten Asians living here? There shouldn't be any."

Old Liu asked and answered by himself, pulled out a bench, and sat down beside Han Yi and Xu Yiru.

"Why do you think of opening a shop here, boss?"

Xu Yiru took a sip of hot tea, held the cup, and asked curiously.

"Oh, this..."

Lao Liu scratched his head and smiled.

"It's all a coincidence, a coincidence."
