Although it was on a mountain, there was water around the mountains and there was a place suitable for rest not far above. Yang Tao continued to move forward breathlessly.
Finally, after a few minutes, they stopped. Since they arrived early in the morning and their speed was quite good, there were only a few tourists when they arrived here.
"Sit here."
Zhou Chen took Yang Tao to sit on the stone beside the stream, "Sit tight, I'll massage your feet."
"no need."
Yang Tao wanted to struggle, but Zhou Chen had already taken off her sneakers and was holding her ankles, kneading them gently.
Yang Tao looked at Zhou Chen who was massaging her feet and felt both happy and satisfied. Although this man was a few years younger than her, he did care about her.
"Zhou Chen, aren't you tired?"
She was very curious. She was exhausted from the whole journey, but Zhou Chen's breathing was just a little disordered, without any other impact. This surprised her very much.
Zhou Chen smiled and said, "It's OK, because I have been exercising all the time, and my physical fitness is very good. Besides, we are not walking very fast, so it's no problem for me to carry you up there. How about I carry you for the rest of the journey?"
Yang Tao immediately shook her head: "No, we are here to travel and climb mountains. If I ask you to carry me, what's the point?"
"Isn't it because you can't bear to leave me?" Zhou Chen pretended to be sad.
Yang Tao smiled immediately, put her feet on Zhou Chen's legs, and leaned her head on Zhou Chen's shoulder, and said softly: "Well, I'm very heavy, I will tire you out."
"No, you're not heavy at all."
"You said it as if you had hugged me."
"Although I have never lifted you up, but looking at your tiny arms and legs, do you weigh more than 100 pounds?"
"I won't tell you. You can guess it yourself."
At this time, Yang Tao was no longer shy at all. She leaned her whole body on Zhou Chen, hugged Zhou Chen with both hands, and enjoyed Zhou Chen's massage.
Zhou Chen also enjoyed this feeling. After spending such a long time with Yang Tao, he also fell in love with Yang Tao, who was over 30 years old but very innocent and kind.
Unlike the first world, when he was already husband and wife with Nan Li, in this world, he created Yang Tao from scratch.
Although they had a strong purpose at the beginning, which was to complete the task, after spending so much time together, they naturally developed feelings for each other.
Zhou Chen doesn’t think there is anything wrong with his feelings. If he likes someone, he likes them; if he doesn’t like someone, he doesn’t like them. As long as he doesn’t do anything immoral or illegal, he doesn’t think there is a problem.
"Zhou Chen, why are you so nice to me? I'm just an ordinary woman, and I'm older than you. With your conditions, you can definitely find a girlfriend who is much better than me. Why did you choose me?"
Yang Tao leaned on Zhou Chen's shoulder, eyes slightly closed, and asked as if muttering to herself.
Zhou Chen hugged Yang Tao's whole body on his legs, touching her forehead with his cheek, and turning gently.
"Because you are the only woman I want to marry in this world. No matter how good other people are, I don't want them. I only want you."
Yang Tao pressed against Zhou Chen's chest: "Thank you, Zhou Chen, I am very happy at this moment."
Zhou Chen's conditions are better. In fact, she feels that she is a bit more worthy of Zhou Chen, but she didn't say it out loud. She likes the current feeling very much, so she only wants to be with Zhou Chen. As for the future, she can't care so much.
After resting for half an hour, Yang Tao became lively again. She left Zhou Chen's arms, put on her shoes, and pulled Zhou Chen to set off again.
"Excuse me, sir, ma'am."
Just as Zhou Chen packed up the garbage and was ready to leave, suddenly a middle-aged man wearing glasses and holding a camera walked over.
Zhou Chen looked at this person and asked doubtfully: "Hello, do we know each other?"
"Sir, Madam, this is the first time we meet. The reason I disturbed you is because I am a photographer. This time I came to Mount Tai to travel and find inspiration. I just saw the scene of the two of you hugging each other, and I felt it was very warm and beautiful. So I took a few photos without asking for your consent."
The man was very polite. After he finished speaking, he placed the camera in front of Zhou Chen and Yang Tao, letting Zhou Chen and the others see the photos he had taken.
Yang Tao took the camera, looked through the photos one by one, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Sir, you took such a great photo."
Even with Zhou Chen's level, he was amazed when he saw the photos. Compared with the photos taken by this person, the photos they just took were far better in terms of color, light, and angle.
"As long as you are satisfied, I am actually very satisfied with these photos. From your actions, I can tell that you two really love each other."
The man exclaimed with sincere admiration.
People like to be exaggerated, and Zhou Chen and Yang Tao are no exception.
Zhou Chen took the initiative to extend his hand: "We are here for tourism. My name is Zhou Chen and she is my girlfriend, Yang Tao."
"My name is Hong Boda. I'm from Yanjing. I'm a freelancer. What I like most is traveling and taking photos."
Hong Baida shook hands with Zhou Chen and introduced himself.
Yang Tao said in surprise: "You are from Yanjing too?"
"Are you guys too?" Hong Boda was also very surprised.
Zhou Chen smiled and nodded: "Yes, we are indeed from Yanjing. I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence."
Hong Boda also said happily: "Yes, it's really a coincidence, Mr. Zhou, Ms. Yang, please rest assured that I will never send these photos without your permission. It's just that these beautiful photos, can I keep some of them as a collection?"
Zhou Chen didn't have any idea, because he saw that Hong Boda was wearing all branded clothes. He had heard from Guo Ran before that the camera in his hand was from a very well-known brand. The camera alone was very valuable, but he didn't know how much it was, but it was definitely not cheap.
More importantly, it was this person who took the initiative to call them. If he hadn't called them, they wouldn't have known that this person had taken a photo of them.
Therefore, it is impossible for such a person to do such dirty things just for a few photos.
Although he didn't care, he asked Yang Tao: "Taozi, what do you think?"
Yang Tao smiled and said, "As long as our photos are not spread everywhere, I have no objection. Mr. Hong, could you please send us a copy of these photos?"
Hong Boda answered happily: "Of course no problem, just give me an email address and I will send the photos to your email first, and then after the photos are developed, I will choose the best ones and send them to you."
"Thank you so much." Yang Tao also expressed her gratitude.
So Zhou Chen left his email address and rental address to Hong Baida.
"Mr. Zhou, Ms. Yang, don't worry, I will definitely send the photos to you as quickly as possible."
Humberto took the camera back and asked again, "Are you going to continue going up?"
"Correct."
"That's great. I want to go up too. Come with me?"
"No problem at all."
So, Zhou Chen and Yang Tao's group of two people was joined by Hong Baida, and it became a group of three.
On the way, Zhou Chen started chatting with Hong Baida and learned that Hong Baida was from Xicheng District of Yanjing. He was 39 years old this year. When he was young, he started a company and made a lot of money. After achieving financial freedom, he began traveling around the world. Photography is one of his biggest hobbies.
What surprised Zhou Chen was that Hong Baida was already 39 years old and had not yet married. From his tone, it seemed that he was not planning to get married and wanted to live alone.
Hong Boda's thoughts really surprised Zhou Chen. Finally, Yang Tao asked, and they found out what caused Hong Boda to have such thoughts.
This is a love story!
It turns out that the reason why Hong Boda didn't get married was not because he was not interested in women, but because he once had a girlfriend who he had been together for ten years. They had known each other since high school and had been together until he graduated and started a company.
The two of them love each other very much and support each other, and can be said to have achieved success in both love and career.
But later his girlfriend died in an accident, which made Hong Boda heartbroken. In order to miss his girlfriend, he decided not to get married again, but started traveling around the world with his girlfriend and his former wish.
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 93: Accident, Injury (Additional chapter for Xiaoshulang's reward)
Hong Boda's love is just like a plot in a movie, which makes Zhou Chen deeply touched and in awe.
What an affectionate man.
As for the sentimental Yang Tao, her eyes were red and she really had no resistance to love stories.
Hong Baida didn't stay with Zhou Chen and the others for long. After walking for a distance, they separated. Hong Baida went around looking for beautiful scenery to take pictures, while Zhou Chen and Yang Tao continued to move forward slowly.
However, when they parted, they left each other their contact information.
The reason why I want to keep Hong Boda's contact information is not only because we get along well, but there is a more important point.
Because Hong Boda loves photography, he has many friends who also like photography in Yanjing, and he also knows many people in the photography and videography industry.
Zhou Chen's soon-to-open bridal shop urgently needs excellent photographers and videographers. Now that he has such good resources, he certainly won't waste them.
After learning that Zhou Chen was planning to open a bridal shop, Hong Boda also said that he would go and take a look when he had time.
"This Humberta is such an affectionate man."
After saying goodbye to Hong Boda, Yang Tao was still feeling emotional for Hong Boda's deep affection.
"Zhou Chen, if something happens to me one day, I don't want you to end up alone like Hong Boda. I hope you can find someone who loves you again."
Listening to Yang Tao's words and looking at her determined expression, Zhou Chen grabbed her hand tightly.
"No, nothing will happen to you, and I will not look for another person in this world. If there is no you in this world, I will not come again."
Suddenly, Zhou Chen felt really guilty. He never thought that Yang Tao would have such deep feelings for him. Compared with Yang Tao, his mind was not so simple.
Yang Tao didn't understand Zhou Chen's implication, she also held Zhou Chen's hand tightly: "No, you have to listen to me, I don't want you to be alone."
Zhou Chen did not argue any more, but nodded silently: "Well, I understand. No matter what happens in the future, I will do everything I can to grow old with you."
After traveling through two worlds in succession, Zhou Chen was extremely confident that the system must have a way to travel back to the film and television world he had been to before, but it had not been triggered yet.
He is just an ordinary person with ordinary people's emotions. Whether in Xiaoshede's world or in this world, he has given his true feelings. Of course, he wants to give the person he loves a complete rest of his life.
At around eleven o'clock, Zhou Chen and Yang Tao finally arrived at Zhongtianmen, which is the middle section of Mount Tai. They looked around for a while and took some photos. Then Zhou Chen took out the food he had prepared long ago and had a bite with Yang Tao.
This time they stayed longer, almost an hour later, before starting to move again.
After several hours of climbing, plus a few breaks along the way, it was still relatively easy for Zhou Chen, but very tiring for Yang Tao.
However, Yang Tao was also very tenacious. After resting, he started to move forward again. He refused Zhou Chen's assistance and was determined to climb to the top of the mountain on his own.
"How's it going? Is it still possible?"
Zhou Chen supported Yang Tao, and Yang Tao grabbed the railing next to him with his other hand and climbed the stairs with great effort.
Yang Tao was panting and stopped to catch his breath before answering, "No problem, how long will it take us to reach the top of the mountain?"
Zhou Chen looked up and said, "It's almost there. At our speed, it will be less than an hour at most."
Yang Tao smiled and said, "Zhou Chen, if it weren't for you, I really wouldn't have the courage to climb such a high mountain. I'm afraid I would have given up halfway."
Zhou Chen praised: "You are already better than many people, Taozi. You see, many people go up by cable car. Only a few can climb to the top of the mountain from beginning to end."
Mount Tai is very high, more than 1,500 meters, with thousands of steps. It is different from normal walking, as you have to climb up step by step. It consumes several times more energy than walking on flat ground, and it is also very demanding on your cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
Therefore, many people who come to Mount Tai to travel will choose to use shortcuts to reach the top, or just give up halfway before reaching the top.
"Really? Am I as good as you say?"
Yang Tao felt that she was weak compared to Zhou Chen, because she found that it was really easy for Zhou Chen to climb to the present.
But she didn't know that Zhou Chen's current physical fitness was much better than that of ordinary people. At least it could reach the level of amateur athletes. Climbing at this frequency was naturally nothing to him.
"Of course, our Taozi is better than many people."
After being praised by Zhou Chen, Yang Tao seemed to regain his strength, "Let's continue."
"it is good."
Yang Tao climbed up step by step, while Zhou Chen stood behind her, supporting her and giving her a little more help.
They came to a place with dozens of steps. When Zhou Chen had just climbed a few steps, something suddenly rolled down from the upper steps. Yang Tao, who was climbing, didn't notice it at all. When she saw it, the thing had already hit her calf.
"what!"
Yang Tao only felt a piercing pain coming from her left calf, which made her cry out in pain involuntarily and then she squatted down.
"peach."
Zhou Chen, who was standing behind Yang Tao, did not see the specific situation. He only heard Yang Tao's cry of pain, and then saw something rolling down, but he did not care at all, but hurriedly supported Yang Tao's body.
"Zhou Chen, something hit my leg. It hurts."
With Zhou Chen's support, Yang Tao sat on the steps, hugging her left leg, her face full of grievance, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably.
Zhou Chen felt distressed and quickly comforted her: "It's okay, Taozi, let go of your hand, I'll see how your leg is."
Although it was very painful, out of trust in Zhou Chen, Yang Tao carefully took her hand away and let Zhou Chen roll up his sweatpants. It was extremely painful when she touched him during the process, but she gritted her teeth and said nothing.
The wound was located on the leg bone just below the knee. It was as big as a baby's palm and was already bruised and red. It was obvious that the person was hit hard. If it hadn't been for the pants blocking it, the skin would have been broken and bleeding.
"Taozi, does it hurt?"
