From that Korean city.

Chapter 570: Future Children's Education

In the guest room.

Lin Yi, who was lying down, responded perfunctorily after hearing Taozi's cry, "Oh, I see."

Afterwards, he turned over, adjusted the quilt, and fell asleep again.

There was no other way. He didn't have a soft big bed to sleep on last night, so he asked the hotel for a quilt to sleep on the floor. It was really uncomfortable, so he didn't fall asleep until almost the early morning.

As a result, Taozi got up not long after she fell asleep when it was dawn.

Outside the balcony, Taozi turned around and smiled when she heard Lin Yi's voice, and did not continue to disturb him.

I thought of the scene of the other person sleeping next to me last night, even though I was sleeping on the bed and the other person was sleeping on the floor.

So even with this contact at a slight distance, Taozi was already very satisfied.

Then he looked again at the picturesque Hallstatt Lake in front of him. The lake reflected the sunlight like a mirror, shining on the towering snow-capped mountains around it.

After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and walked back into the room, "Oppa, I'll go out and buy you breakfast later, okay?"

"Are you hungry?"

Although Lin Yi still wanted to continue sleeping, he was more worried about letting Taozi go out alone.

After all, there are only two of them, Paul and Bullet, and they can't split themselves.

"Kind of."

Taozi made a universe gesture with her fingers, and quickly put it away after she realized what was happening. Then she looked at Lin Yi's smiling eyes and lowered her head shyly.

Lin Yi sat up and stretched, "Then wait for me, I'll go out with you."

After a while, Lin Yi, who had finished washing up, was spraying toner. At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

The two looked at each other. The girl was a little flustered, but the boy looked calm. He patted his face and said, "Taozi, what are you standing there for? Go open the door."

When Taozi heard this, she quickly walked over and opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Krystal was standing outside the door, pretending to be surprised and said, "Oh, Shirley, you're here so early too."

Then he glanced inside quickly, trying to see if there were any signs of war.

As a result, the first thing he saw was Lin Yi, who was standing in front of the window in pajamas and patting his face.

The other person also turned around and looked at the door. After realizing it was Krystal, he asked, "Why are you up so early? I thought you were going to sleep until noon like you did in Florence."

"What's going on with you guys..."

Faced with Krystal's question, Taozi instinctively wanted to say that she had also come to see Lin Yi early in the morning, but she found that the other party was looking at the pajamas she was wearing.

This made me lose the confidence to lie and I didn't know how to answer.

At this time, Lin Yi said directly, "What's going on? Taozi just slept at my place last night."

After getting Lin Yi's positive answer, Krystal's originally expectant heart was now completely hung in the air.

Only Taozi pursed her lips nervously, feeling inexplicably sweet in her heart.

But no matter how happy I am, I still need to explain.

So after eating the sweet date, Taozi immediately talked to Krystal about what happened last night and told her that she was a little scared of being alone in a room.

After listening to Taozi's explanation, Krystal raised her eyebrows slightly, withdrew her gaze from Lin Yi, and looked at Taozi with concern, "Why didn't you tell me? If you told me, I would have gone over to accompany you."

"It's okay. I can be alone. It's just that Oppa is worried about me."

Peach smiled.

Later, when Krystal walked into the room and saw the quilt on the carpet, the incident came to an end.

But deep down, she was still a little depressed.

Because if Jessica hadn't come over, this wouldn't have happened last night.

Jessica, who woke up shortly afterwards, had roughly the same thoughts and situation as her.

After a super good sleep, she woke up to an empty room and Krystal had disappeared.

This frightened Jessica so much that she jumped up from where she was and looked around the guest room.

Then certain images flashed through my mind for the first time.

For example, last night Krystal woke up and sneaked into the next room while she was asleep.

For example, Krystal wakes up earlier than herself, and then runs to the next door early in the morning to imitate the morning exercises she did back then.

More thoughts floated through her mind.

She was so frightened that she couldn't sleep anymore. She quickly got up, washed up, and knocked on Lin Yi's door like Krystal.

Then the plot unfolded just like before, except this time Taozi was replaced by Krystal, and Krystal was replaced by Jessica.

After the two had a brief conversation, this slightly ridiculous situation came to an end when Jessica walked in and saw Taozi and Lin Yi eating breakfast in the corner.

After hearing about Taozi's situation, Jessica's behavior was similar to Krystal's, except that she was more experienced than Krystal.

For example, let Lin Yi change to a double suite tonight and let the three women live together. This way they can avoid the fear of the mountains at night and can take care of each other.

Although this might mean that there would be no chance for a night raid, from Jessica's point of view, the main reason she came here was to keep an eye on Krystal.

As long as she can hold on to the home run that her sister is planning to sacrifice herself for, her trip to Europe will be considered a success.

In her opinion, the idea of ​​both sides suffering losses did not exist from the beginning.

Because she had already eaten him up completely, she just had to endure it for a while, and at most she would have to go back to Seoul and get a few more quilts.

It's a pity that she didn't realize that her thoughts were already a step too late.

One step late, every step is late.

……

……

Around ten o'clock in the morning.

Everyone got up very early today and was finally able to walk out of the hotel and prepare to explore this beautiful town.

For the first stop, according to the guide Lin Yi had read, he chose the Skywalk Observation Deck.

This observation deck is several hundred meters above the town of Hallstatt. You can take the cable car directly from the town, which is very convenient.

Then stand on the tip of the 12-meter-high conical observation deck and you can have a panoramic view of Hallstatt.

This lakeside town, standing between steep slopes and emerald lakes like gems, has always been famous for its beautiful natural scenery. Therefore, looking at the panoramic view first and then the close-up can also be regarded as a magnifying glass-style play.

At the entrance of the cable car center, Lin Yi looked at the group of parents and children speaking Mandarin in front of him, and heard Jessica's laughter, "Lin Yi, now there are really people from your place traveling from all over the world."

“Indeed, I’ve gone out to play so many times, and I can hear Chinese voices every time.” Krystal laughed.

Taozi listened quietly to the conversation over there, then looked at Lin Yi, "Oppa, why did I hear the parents over there talking to their children about homework? Did I hear it wrongly?"

"No, the mother over there is assigning her children to write an 800-word travel diary and a travel reflection of more than a thousand words. If they can't finish them today, they have to go to bed tonight." Lin Yi, who also heard the argument over there, felt a little embarrassed. He held his forehead, rubbed his eyebrows and smiled bitterly.

Jessica and Krystal, who had received American education since childhood, widened their eyes when they heard this. "What? We still have to do homework when we travel?"

"For study, for composition, for grades."

As someone who has personally experienced Chinese-style education, Lin Yi naturally understands what these parents are thinking.

But Jessica and Krystal still said, "I can't understand it, she's so young."

As they spoke, they looked at the child who was probably only 7 or 8 years old, and her beautiful eyebrows were already tightly furrowed.

Taozi, who brought up this topic, had the same idea as them.

Under her slightly furrowed brows, were a pair of eyes that seemed to see her childhood self. It seemed that she was the same at that time.

Taozi, who had been feeling empathy for a long time, lowered her head. Her expression became much more depressed, but more of it was reluctance and powerlessness.

Just as she was about to let her thoughts run wild, a large, warm hand stroked her head.

Then I felt a weight on my shoulders, and someone held me in their arms. Finally, a soft laugh came, "What are you thinking about?"

Turning her head, she saw Lin Yi leaning against her, slightly bent over. He hugged her and said with a smile, "Why do you have that expression? Do you think that child is pitiful?"

Taozi did not deny it and nodded slightly.

"Families that can travel abroad and come here to play should be financially well off. I don't understand why they still ask this of their children."

On the side, the JK sisters also had an expression of approval.

Lin Yi said, "Every family has its own education. We can only point fingers at others but cannot interfere."

In response to Lin Yi's words, Taozi nodded, and her eyes dimmed.

But the next second, Lin Yi changed his tone, "But Taozi, you have to know that we have a choice. We just have to choose not to become such a person, right?"

After being stunned for a moment, Taozi raised her eyes to look at Lin Yi, who gave her a faint smile in return.

This smile was reflected in the blinking eyes, just like the slightly drunken sunshine above the head, making people warm and intoxicated.

"Hmm~"

Nodding vigorously, Taozi responded with a smile, "I will never let my future child face such a situation. I want to give him a perfect childhood, a carefree one."

In response, Lin Yi smiled even more happily, "I'm optimistic about you."

I was really happy, because what Taozi said proved that her hollowness syndrome was almost cured.

After all, I can think about the future, consider family, and even think about having children.

This kind of mental state has already reached the middle and upper levels of the entire society.

Therefore, even if we say that Taozi's mental state has recovered and returned to health indicators, there is no problem.

Taozi continued, and based on the current issue, she and Lin Yi started a series of child-raising concepts.

Seeing Lin Yi like this, he was so happy that he naturally wouldn't interrupt the topic, so he started discussing it with her.

Next door, Jessica watched the two people discussing a topic about children. At first, she could sympathize with the child in front of her, but later she became more and more confused.

How come as we were chatting you two started to look like a family that was about to have a baby?

It sounds like something is wrong.

Unlike Jessica, Krystal didn't think there was anything wrong with it, and even occasionally expressed her misunderstanding of Chinese-style education.

During this conversation, several people quickly got on the cable car and headed towards the top of the mountain.

Sitting in the cable car, Taozi finished the educational topic and turned her gaze back to the surrounding scenery.

Looking at the lake formed by glacial action, overlooking the crystal clear emerald water, gazing at the quiet and beautiful lakeside residences that are lined up like in a fairy tale world, finally, one's eyes fall on the large mirror-like lake water.

Then he took out his phone and started taking photos, and asked, "Oppa, where are we going after we finish looking at the observation deck?"

"Go check out the ancient salt mines?"

This time, Lin Yi did not make a decision. Instead, he asked the question to the beauties around him in the form of a rhetorical question.

"I can do it."

"casual."

The JK sisters don’t like to think, so they answer very quickly.

Only Taozi put away her phone and looked back at Lin Yi expectantly, "Why don't we rent a boat and go play on the lake."

"Boating on the lake?"

While Lin Yi was whispering, he also cast his gaze towards Jessica and Krystal.

The two men responded quickly, just like before.

"I think it's okay. I don't think there's anything interesting to see in the salt mine. It's better to go to the lake." This was Jessica's answer.

“That’s right, now that we’re out of the city, let’s get closer to nature.” This is Krystal’s opinion.

So just like that, the few people who had finalized their next plan began to look down at the lake from a high place again with a purpose.

Here we said we should go to the center point to take pictures of each other.

They said they wanted to go to the woods on the side of the shore to see if there were any brown bears as the town had mentioned.

Only Lin Yi looked at the three people with a smile, without expressing any opinion.

In his opinion, the biggest gain today was the conversation that Taozi had just had.

A simple trip and a chance encounter made her take the initiative to think about the future. This is really a great luck.

So when they were boating on the lake later, Lin Yi obeyed Taozi's arrangements very much. Wherever she said she wanted to go, he would row the oars and take her to where she wanted to go to take photos.

This also made Jessica and Krystal on the other boat extremely depressed.

Because they didn't know how to row, they kept moving in circles for a long time. They had no choice but to hang the boat on Paul and his boat with a rope and let them pull them around the lake.

Although it is not as cool, it saves a lot of worry and effort.

In this way, after swinging on the lake for most of the day, the few people went ashore and visited the town’s museum and central square.

Before we knew it, the night slowly covered the sky.

Neon lights are flickering and the lights are coming on.

Another night has arrived.

After dinner, Jessica returned to the hotel room and looked at the newly moved double suite. She looked at Krystal and Taozi who were admiring the beautiful photos taken tonight. Her eyes slowly moved to the left and fell on her suitcase.

She hesitated.

Are you wondering whether to squeeze orange juice tonight?
