In the evening, at Residence No. 76 of Mingcui Villa. After dinner, Li Youran and Sun Xiaoying went for a walk by Mingcui Lake together, taking Liao Lang with them. There were few pedestrians on the lakeside road in this section of the Villa, and it was quiet and elegant, with the water surface
The wind carries a hint of coolness, blowing in your face, making you forget that you are in summer, and refresh your tired spirit.
After the sun sets, the lake surface turns dark blue, and the shadows of the mountains and the swaying willows gradually become blurred.
From time to time, the sound of flapping wings and a few crisp calls came from the water, and the waterbirds who had been busy all day returned to their nests one after another. The stars in the sky began to slowly appear.
After wandering around for half a circle, Sun Xiaoying took out the time and said that the TV series was about to start, so she urged Li Youran to return.
Li Youran knew that this was the little girl's biggest hobby, so she had no choice but to let her go. The two returned home together and Sun Xiaoying turned on the fifty-year-old plasma TV in the living room and sat on the sofa to watch TV series.
Li Youran was not interested in this, so he came to the east side of the second floor.
The study room is very large, nearly 30 square meters. There is also a curved pool on the south wall. There are steep peaks made of water stones and some aquatic plants attached to them. A waterfall simulated by a water pump pours down from the top of the mountain.
, fell on the lower stone, splashing into flying flowers and broken jade.
Li Youran walked over and turned off the water pump switch, and the room suddenly became quiet.
There is a large solid wood desk next to the window. Physical books are rarely purchased.
I heard that in order to meet the needs of some people who don't like reading but also want to be arty, some businesses have specially produced a decorative book. The outer shell is the same as a normal book, but the inside is filled with foam plastic. It is most suitable for hardcover tomes.
,Simulation of thread-bound books.
Li Youran felt that most of the corporate executives and bosses interviewed on TV were probably this type of consumer customers. In front of the camera, they talked about corporate culture and ideological inheritance, and the bookcases behind them were filled with various hardcovers.
While browsing the news, he suddenly heard the cell phone ringing on the desktop. Without looking away from the screen, he stretched out his right hand to grab the phone and pressed the answer button.
"Hello, who's there?" he asked casually.
There was a burst of giggles on the phone, and then a clear and sweet female voice came.
"Boss Xiao Li, you can't remember me coming, can you?"
It's Ling Wanru, that's right. Her voice is very special, as pure as a stream in space but with a hint of charm.
Since she was sent to Australia for further study by the school, the two have not been in contact for a while. The first few days were quite melancholy.
Hearing the familiar voice, Li Youran suddenly felt a warmth surge in his heart.
He took his cell phone, stood up, and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.
"Wanru, are you okay?"
"Okay, remember me. Hehe, I'm pretty good, but I'm not used to eating here. To be honest, I really miss your farm buns." Ling Wanru said.
"It's a pity that it's too far, otherwise I would send you two packages. But I heard that the roasted kangaroo meat there is good, haven't you tried it?" Li Youran said with a smile.
"Don't mention the kangaroo meat. The local restaurants grill it very well. It's like rubber and can't be chewed. It tastes a little sour and not delicious at all." Ling Wanru complained.
"It's normal to have different tastes in different places. Aren't we used to eating medium- or medium-rare steaks here? You just have to go to a Chinese restaurant owned by a Chinese to eat. Is it hot there in the summer?"
"Li Youran asked.
"Gee, classmate Ranzi, you are so funny. It's winter here in Melbourne, how come it's so hot? You're going to be criticized by the teacher." Ling Wanru laughed again.
Li Youran slapped his forehead, isn't it? Australia is located in the southern hemisphere, and the four seasons are opposite to here. In August, it is not winter over there. Alas, I almost gave this knowledge back to the geography teacher.
"International long-distance calls are too expensive, let's go to Penguin to chat. What's your phone number?" Ling Wanru stopped laughing at him and prepared to change positions.
Li Youran quickly returned to the computer and looked for his Penguin account. Since he never chatted online, he almost never used it after applying for it.
Ten minutes later, the two people connected to the penguin chat status.
Ling Wanru first talked about her own situation. Her current further studies are going very well and may end early. The winter in Melbourne is not too cold, with the average temperature being about 10 degrees Celsius. She has also visited several other cities.
Fan, the environment in Australia is very good, but she still prefers Tianhai City, maybe because she is used to it.
Then she asked about Li Youran's current situation.
Li Youran didn't hide it, saying that he opened a branch and then bought a single-family house in Mingcui Lake, where the environment is very comfortable.
"Mingcui Lake? I've been there once. It's really nice there. I'm so envious. When I return to China, how about finding time to go there for a two-day vacation?" Ling Wanru typed a line of text on the screen and added a cartoon bear.
An expression with stars in his eyes.
"Okay, you're welcome. As long as you have time, you can stay as long as you want. To be honest, everyone around me is busy. Usually there are only my sister Xiaoying and me in the house, so it's very deserted." Li Youran responded.
Then, Li Youran told her that his bun shop has added varieties of buns, as well as spicy cold noodles, and is now preparing to develop beef ramen.
In addition, all kinds of bass and mandarin fish in the pond are extremely delicious.
"Stop talking, you're going to starve me to death. Hey, in order to cater to local customs, many of the dishes in the Chinese restaurants here are not authentic." After the other person typed this sentence, he had a complaining expression.
Maybe being outside for a long time made her miss domestic dining even more.
Li Youran thought for a while and told her that there was nothing she could do to get anything else, but he had a new good tea that he could send to her, but he was not familiar with the international mailing procedures.
Ling Wanru was very happy after hearing this. Of course she knew that the things that Ranzi could get from here would certainly be good. She told Li Youran that someone from the school was coming to Melbourne next week, and she would contact him later and entrust him with it.
Someone bring it.
Li Youran naturally agreed and told her that the things were left at the bun shop and her colleagues could come and pick them up at any time.
After finishing the chat, Li Youran stood up and slowly came to the window. Outside the window was the colorful lights in the community, as well as the hazy shadows of the trees under the lights. The night in Mingcui Villa is actually very beautiful.!
