Step by step, with Lu Shen's help, Hui Yin managed to walk around the hundred meters long skywalk.
After her knees stopped shaking for a bit, the scenery around them made Hui Yin's eyes widen in amazement. The clouds that hugged the mountain range like coiling dragons, the endless watery blue sky, and the trees of late spring that hovered above the walkway like an umbrella.
She took a step forward on her own, and leaned over the railing, looking down at the undulating vast expanse of green.
"Beautiful!"
She laughed.
Her vertigo vanished, and she even took a couple of pictures to save as her phone wallpaper. Forgetting Lu Shen, she excitedly ran forward and tried to imprint the view in her memory. The breeze blew her hair back, and with the scenery around her, it made a beautiful picture.
Lu Shen took out his phone, and while the girl was busy exclaiming at the sights, he discreetly took a photo.
His lips curved, and he followed the girl in a leisurely manner as she enjoyed herself.
After a while, they came across a narrow plank path where strips of red ribbons were tied on the trees. Each red ribbon symbolized a wish. Dozens of tourists were writing their wishes on the ribbons, hung it on the tree, and hoped that their wish will come true.
Lu Shen and Hui Yin wrote their wishes as well, but kept it a secret from each other.
They got on a cable car after the plank road, which the driver had told them was a 'must' while visiting Zhangjiajie. It was often touted as the longest cable car in the world since it takes a total of thirty minutes to cover the entire distance. This would take them to downtown Zhangjiajie, because it directly goes down into the city.
Hui Yin gazed down at the snake-like path that represented the 99 curves of the road going to 'Heaven's Gate', and was a bit saddened that she was finally going home.
"The Zhangjiajie tour usually lasts two to four days."
Hearing his voice, Hui Yin glanced at Lu Shen.
He was already staring at her with his dark eyes, his posture straight and composed. He had removed his sunglasses and his cap, which accidentally tousled his hair. This gave him a seductive yet dangerous appearance, and with his casual clothes, it made him seem approachable.
Of course, this was if one did not include the overbearing aura coming off him in waves.
Although they sat opposite each other, his sense of presence made Hui Yin feel as if the cable car was too small for the two of them.
"What?" She was confused at the sudden topic.
"The Zhangjiajie tour. There are still a lot of places that we could visit."
His voice was slow and deliberate, as if he was trying to make her understand. But Hui Yin still looked bewildered.
What did he mean? He couldn't have meant that he wanted to stay longer here, could he?
"But...you only took a day off. You need to go back to work tomorrow."
Lu Shen shrugged, and this slight movement emphasized the faint outline of the toned body beneath his shirt.
"I could work anywhere. Meetings can be done through video conferences, calls could be made if they needed my input. Yan would handle everything else."
Hui Yin was speechless. This perfectionist, workaholic man...was willing to spend another day just to tour around Zhangjiajie? Was the view really that beautiful?
She could have sworn to both the heavens and the earth that this man would not let anyone else interfere with his job, and yet one look around Zhangjiajie and he was willing to miss another day of work!
Maybe he was a fan of 'Avatar'? After all, this was where they based the location of the movie. Hui Yin imagined Lu Shen intently watching tall blue-skinned creatures connecting their tails on TV and couldn't almost resist the urge to snicker.
"We can't," she replied, after she calmed herself down. "The party will be held tomorrow night."
Lu Shen's expression was gloomy as he looked at her.
"Do you really want to go to that party?"
