Chapter 81 That's the letter you wrote to me
Chen Yuan held the stamp collecting task card in his hand, looking at the check-in points marked on it.
Ocean interactive pavilion, rooftop garden, indoor playground, arcade...
Today can be described as a day in the life of a special forces soldier.
A short while later, Meng Shuran came over in a casual outfit: a beige knitted cardigan paired with light blue jeans and white canvas shoes. Her long hair was loosely tied into a low ponytail, revealing her slender neck.
"Can we go now? Shall we start from the bottom?" She looked up at Chen Yuan, a faint smile in her eyes.
"Okay." Chen Yuan nodded, and the two walked towards the elevator.
The others began to set off one after another.
Everyone's route was different; some started from the middle, and some started from the top.
Soon, Chen Yuan and Meng Shuran arrived at the second floor.
This was his first time visiting the aquarium on the cruise ship.
Looking at the tropical fish swimming among the coral reefs through the curved acrylic viewing window, the two were filled with amazement.
The two then went inside and began their first stop on the tour.
Today, at each stop, they need to take some photos as promotional material for the Starship in the future.
This can be seen as a way for the production team to give back to the sponsors.
Chen Yuan followed Meng Shuran around inside. You could say Meng Shuran was practically a tour guide, as she could name many different types of fish.
The two walked around, stopping occasionally to take a few photos.
Meng Shuran has a slow-paced personality, so Chen Yuan can generally have a comfortable time with her without feeling rushed.
After leaving the aquarium, the two walked up the stairs to the fourth floor of the Ocean Museum.
The entire museum is decorated in a deep blue color scheme, with a ceiling painted with a dazzling star map. It features specimens ranging from the deep sea to the shallow sea, from fish to shellfish, and even seaweed and coral.
"Looking at these things, I feel so small!" Meng Shuran slowed her pace, her fingertips brushing against a piece of glass. It displayed a kind of seashell that had undergone hundreds of millions of years of changes.
Chen Yuan nodded, looking at the description on the sign, and said, "Speaking of which, at one time, seashells were even considered a form of currency."
"Huh?" Meng Shuran looked shocked. "That's amazing! And then?" she asked.
"And then I don't know either, I haven't researched it much," Chen Yuan said with an awkward laugh.
The two spent more than half an hour in the museum and took several photos.
As I left the museum, I ran into Lu Zeyan and Xu Zhiyi.
Xu Zhiyi, dressed in a smart black tracksuit, was somewhat surprised to see Chen Yuan and Meng Shuran.
"What a coincidence?" Lu Zeyan greeted with a smile. "Where are you headed next?"
"Seventh floor," Chen Yuan said.
"Oh, okay, we're on the sixth floor," Lu Zeyan said regretfully. "We were hoping to go together."
There was always a slight awkwardness between him and Xu Zhiyi; it seemed as if their magnetic fields were incompatible, making it impossible for them to get to know each other better.
Afterwards, the two said goodbye, and Chen Yuan and Meng Shuran went to the indoor amusement park on the seventh floor.
Carousel, mini roller coaster, claw machine... the photo spot is next to the carousel.
"Would you like to take a ride?" Meng Shuran suddenly asked.
Chen Yuan paused for a moment, then nodded, looking at the expectation in her eyes.
The two sat on adjacent carousels, which slowly spun to the music.
Meng Shuran reached out and brushed the stray hairs behind her ear. Today, a smile appeared on her face from time to time.
Chen Yuan looked at her and found that she was very different from the usually taciturn Meng Shuran.
The staff helped take a photo for us to check in. In the photo, the carousel is spinning with colorful lights and shadows, and the two of them look a little reserved.
Throughout the day, the two of them, along with the photographer, toured almost the entire area from bottom to top.
Even for such a large cruise ship, there are still many places that haven't been visited.
However, it was already close to dusk.
The sky was dyed orange-red, and the two stood on the top deck, gazing at the sunset on the horizon.
A gentle breeze caressed my face on the deck, carrying a faint smell of the sea.
Chen Yuan found a spot with an excellent view and had Meng Shuran open her mouth, using the visual illusion to pretend to swallow the sunset.
After taking this last photo, the day's special forces mission came to an end.
The two sat on a bench on the top deck, leisurely watching the sunset gradually disappear into the distance.
Looking at the check-in stickers covering his task card, Chen Yuan let out a long sigh: "It's been a tiring day."
Meng Shuran was tidying up the photos in her camera when she heard this. She looked up and suddenly said, "How about we go to a hot spring? To relax a bit." She suddenly remembered that Zhang Jianjian had told them about going to a hot spring.
"Sure, I went with my son before, and I must say, it was really quite comfortable," Chen Yuan said, genuinely wanting to go for a soak right now.
"Let's go!" Meng Shuran said, and the two immediately set off, taking the elevator to the hot spring area.
By the time the two arrived at the hot spring area, it was already getting dark, and soft lights had been turned on.
However, when they requested a room, the staff still provided them with a double hot spring room.
I just soaked here with Zhang Jianjian a few days ago, and I didn't expect to come here with Meng Shuran so soon. And then, the same thing happened again.
When Meng Shuran came in after changing her clothes, the blush on her face was still clearly visible.
However, since the photographer also came in this time, the awkward atmosphere didn't last long.
After Meng Shuran went into the water, she immediately looked relaxed, and then the two of them leaned lazily against the rocks.
Only the occasional sound of waves and wind could be heard.
After an unknown amount of time, Meng Shuran suddenly spoke, her voice as soft as a breeze: "Chen Yuan, have you ever had the experience of writing love letters to someone when you were a child?"
Chen Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled, "Love letters? I used to blush even talking to girls when I was little, how could I dare to write something like that?" He paused, then looked at Meng Shuran curiously, "You've ever had one?"
Meng Shuran looked at him with a puzzled expression, then gazed at the stars in the sky, as if lost in a distant memory.
"When I was little, my parents took me to live in a small coastal town for two years." Her voice was soft, with a touch of nostalgia. "I studied in the first year of junior high school there."
"Oh? That's similar to my experience, the sense of disconnect I felt when I was in school," Chen Yuan sighed, a sentiment he deeply understood.
"Yes, so I hardly had any classmates back then. I only played with the girl next door," Meng Shuran said calmly. "Speaking of which, I haven't seen her in a long time."
"That's normal. I haven't seen my junior high classmates in a long time either," Chen Yuan nodded in agreement and continued listening.
"One day, the girl next door mysteriously handed me a letter." Meng Shuran smiled and said, "She told me that she was being pursued at school, and that the guy had a friend who wanted me to introduce him to a girlfriend as well."
"I introduced you to him, saying that my neighbor was a very beautiful girl, so he wrote a letter and asked me to give it to you."
"Don't you think it's childish?" Meng Shuran said with a smile.
Hearing this, Chen Yuan was speechless. What kind of bizarre game was this? He believed the photographer next to him thought the same thing. Are kids these days really this good at playing?
Seeing Chen Yuan's expression, Meng Shuran continued, "But at the time I thought it was quite interesting, so I wrote him a letter asking him why he liked me."
"Then the next day, the girl next door brought a reply."
"We exchanged over a dozen letters. His handwriting was terrible, but he was incredibly good at sweet talk. Looking back now, he was truly an unbelievable guy!"
Chen Yuan listened with great interest and couldn't help but tease, "And then? You got caught?"
"Mm." Meng Shuran nodded, a hint of a smile flashing in her eyes.
"..." Chen Yuan was stunned. After a moment of silence, he said quietly, "Are you revealing your embarrassing past?"
"Yeah!" Meng Shuran looked at Chen Yuan and smiled, "I didn't want to say it, but I just felt really uncomfortable. If I don't say it, I can't sleep well at night."
"After all, that was a letter you wrote to me..."
