Chapter 750: Third Aunt's Visit!
Seeing this, Zhou Chao, covering his face with some embarrassment, said, “Alright alright, don’t you know you look a bit like a clown doing that?”
Si Cong, looking somewhat smug, tilted his head back, “Is there anyone as clownish as me?”
Seeing Si Cong’s exaggerated antics, Zhou Chao directly opened the car door and got in, while Lin Wu sat in the passenger seat.
It had been a while since Zhou Chao had driven, and he felt his skills were a bit rusty.
“A buzzing sound” echoed in the parking lot, attracting the attention of many.
In the next moment, a swift shadow raced outwards, it was none other than Zhou Chao driving the Karlmann King!
“Young Master Zhou, wait for me!” Si Cong shouted and quickly got into his own car, swiftly following behind.
After leaving the Huanghua Gou tourist area and resting in the urban area of Ulanqab, they had lunch, bought some snacks and drinks, and then Zhou Chao and his friends set off on their journey once again.
After leaving Ulanqab, they headed straight for Yunzhou, 120 kilometers to the south.
As one of the nine ancient capitals of China, Yunzhou possessed a rich cultural heritage, naturally boasting many famous attractions and delicious cuisines. Zhou Chao also wanted to explore and taste the local delicacies.
By the time they arrived in the downtown area of Yunzhou, it was only around three in the afternoon. They headed directly to the hotel and stayed at the only Hilton hotel in Yunzhou.
Just as Zhou Chao sat down on the sofa, he saw Si Cong’s head poking in from outside the door, “Young Master Zhou, how about going out for a stroll tonight?”
“Sure, why not? We’ll go out later!”
After driving for two hours, Zhou Chao also felt a bit tired and decided to rest up for the night’s outing.
“Okay then, I’ll go back to my room first!”
Before they knew it, it was already evening. The three of them hailed a taxi from the roadside, as driving themselves was inconvenient in an unfamiliar place.
“Driver, where’s the liveliest place in Yunzhou at night? Any recommendations?” Si Cong, acting like an old acquaintance, asked as soon as they got in the car.
The taxi driver glanced at Si Cong and said with a smile, “Young man, you should definitely go to the Miami Bar, it’s perfect for young people like you to have fun. I heard there are the most beautiful girls there, and since you all look so handsome, you’ll definitely have a great time!”
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chao and his friends all laughed.
“Driver, that’s not what we mean. We’re here in Yunzhou for the first time and we just want to explore and try some local specialties!”
The taxi driver then realized his misunderstanding. “Sorry about that, I thought you wanted to experience the local nightlife!”
As for the taxi driver’s mention of “experiencing the local nightlife,” Zhou Chao and his friends understood. Some things were better left unsaid among men!
“No worries, as long as you don’t lead us astray!”
Upon hearing this, the taxi driver became more serious, “Of course, I wouldn’t want to embarrass the people of Yunzhou!”
The taxi driver then began to introduce Yunzhou’s nightlife to Zhou Chao and his friends. Surprisingly, the taxi driver was quite talkative, never ceasing throughout the journey.
Soon, the taxi stopped by a neon-lit roadside.
Pointing inside, the driver said, “This is the liveliest night market in Yunzhou – Caofu Building. There are many delicious foods inside, you should go and try them.”
“Alright, thank you, driver!”
After getting out of the car, Zhou Chao looked around. There were indeed many people here, but it was slightly different from what he had imagined.
“Let’s go, let’s go inside and take a look.”
With that, they headed towards the Caofu Building Night Market, with Si Cong and Lin Wu quickly following behind.
As they entered the night market, a strong aroma of food hit them.
The night market wasn’t very large in scale; after walking around, they found only a few dozen stalls, all selling various snacks. These snacks weren’t particularly unique; they were the kind you could find in other places as well.
Whether it was due to the crowds or the strong aroma of food, Zhou Chao and his friends ended up buying quite a few snacks. After a round, everyone had eaten to about half full.
Throwing away the bamboo skewer in his hand, Si Cong glanced back at the still bustling night market, “This night market here is a bit lacking in excitement!”
“It’s alright here, just haven’t seen any particularly enticing food that catches my eye, a bit of a pity!” Zhou Chao said somewhat regretfully.
Besides the scenery along the way, the only thing that could attract him while traveling was food. Unfortunately, halfway through this trip, he hadn’t eaten any food that he couldn’t forget.
“Let’s go around again, I don’t feel full yet.”
Zhou Chao shrugged, indicating that he was fine with that.
The three of them wandered aimlessly along the street, but after half an hour, they hadn’t found a restaurant worth eating at. In the end, they reluctantly settled for a hotpot restaurant with quite a few people.
“I feel like I’ve eaten a year’s worth of lamb in the past few days!” Si Cong looked at the bubbling hotpot with a sense of melancholy.
“Yeah, you’re right. It’s been lamb every day for several days in a row. There’s no other way; the lamb from the northwest is famous!” Although Zhou Chao said this, his hands didn’t stop, as he continued to cook several slices of lamb.
As for Lin Wu, he had been silently eating. In the gaps between Zhou Chao and Si Cong’s conversation, he had already finished two plates.
