The two chatted without saying a word, and soon arrived outside the ancient city wall.
Rongcheng is an ancient capital. The city center within the ancient city walls retains the long culture of the ancient capital. Outside the ancient city walls is a more prosperous city center.
There is a towering building outside the ancient city wall, the ninety-nine-story tower. Although the name has a tower, it is a commercial building. Almost all the buildings around the city are connected together. The shortest one has eighteen floors, and then progresses in a ladder-like manner. The highest one has ninety-nine floors. Looking down from a high altitude, it looks like a pagoda, so it is named Ninety-Nine. layer tower.
The two of them took the escalator directly from the underground garage.
"The fireworks start at twelve o'clock. There is still nearly an hour left. Should we go to the top floor or go somewhere else to have fun."
Ai Hao looked at the time on his watch and asked Ye Yu.
"Why don't you just go to the top floor and reserve a seat in advance, but there won't be any seats this time. Ouyang and I have been here once on Christmas and New Year's Day, and every time there are so many people that we can't squeeze in."
It is said that the ninety-nine-story tower overlooks the entire Chengdu, and the night view on holidays is even more beautiful. The two of them also decided to come to the ninety-nine-story tower after reading the Chengdu Tourism Guide. Unfortunately, even on normal nights, it is still overcrowded. Not to mention the holidays.
The two of them took the elevator from the garage on the third floor underground. The elevator had to stop at almost every floor. When they reached the first floor, a group of young people poured in, and the elevator was soon crowded. Ye Yu and Ai Hao was pushed into a corner.
At first, Ai Hao used his body to hold up some space to protect Ye Yu. As more and more people came, Ye Yu was almost wrapped in Ai Hao's arms. Ai Hao was wearing few clothes, and Ye Yu could almost feel his heart beating faster and faster.
Because the elevator was full, it didn't stop midway, and we reached the top floor in one minute.
There are several elevators, and a large number of people are pouring out at the same time. The top floors are decorated with transparent glass. The space is very large, but it seems extremely crowded at the moment.
The two of them were about to be separated by the crowd when Ye Yu's hand was held by a big warm hand.
"There are too many people, and I'm afraid they might get separated after a while."
Ai Hao pulled Ye Yu to his side, holding hands with no intention of letting go.
"oh oh!"
The two happened to pass by the open-air garden, and a cold wind hit. Ye Yu shrank her neck and buried her head in her collar. The hand held tightly by Ai Hao instantly warmed up, while the other cold little hand could only Tucked into pocket.
"Are you afraid of the cold?"
Feeling Ye Yu's shivering, Ai Hao lowered his head and looked at the person next to him. He was wearing a cute furry pink bunny hat, wrapped like a ball. It was still cold even though it was like this, which only meant that she was afraid of the cold.
"Those who weren't afraid of the cold before may be because the difference between the north and the south is too big, so they became afraid of the cold after coming to the south."
Ye Yu shrank her neck again. She couldn't bear the coldness of the heavy humidity. She had gone out in a hurry and forgot to wear gloves. They had already walked to several places, whether it was the outdoor bleachers or the indoor bleachers, there was no way they could squeeze in.
As they walked further back, the number of people gradually became less and less. Ai Hao let go of Ye Yu's hand, walked around to her other side, and put his hand into her pocket. Sure enough, this hand was still cold.
Ye Yu was stunned, blushed with embarrassment, and looked up at Ai Hao in confusion.
"Help you cover it. It won't be good if you catch a cold. I asked you to come out to play. I can't let you go back sick."
Ai Hao smiled, very tenderly. Ye Yu was not someone who was shy easily, but she was extremely shy at the moment. She didn't know whether it was because Ai Hao helped her warm her hands, or because of something else, she didn't feel cold at all for a moment. When I entered the room, I still felt a little hot.
After walking around for more than half an hour, she finally found a place with few people. The fireworks feast would not start for half an hour. Ye Yu looked around, trying to find something to play with to pass the time. Otherwise, it would be too awkward for the two of them to stand there.
"How about we go back a little bit. There aren't too many people there and there are some places to play."
Where the two of them were now, the shops either sold snacks, plush toys, or flower figurines. Ai Hao could tell Ye Yu's thoughts at a glance.
"Will I also need to queue up?"
Ye Yu was only looking at the scenery outside and didn't pay attention to the shops in the mall at all. In addition, she was always holding hands with Ai Hao, so she was too embarrassed to turn her head to look in his direction.
Although you can't get close to the observation deck, you can still see some beautiful scenery from a distance.
The large screens throughout the shopping mall are showing the night view of Chengdu tonight, with the ninety-nine-story tower as the center, surrounded by a circle of shining colorful neon lights. The neon lights piece together a five-star red flag, as well as "Happy New Year" and "2024". ” words. From time to time, the twelve zodiac animals, giant pandas and other patterns will appear.
Just a glimpse of it from a distance was so beautiful that Ye Yu wished she could stand directly on the top of the tower and look around the entire Chengdu.
"Let's go over there and have a look. If there are too many people, we'll just walk around and just pass the time."
Ai Hao did not let go of Ye Yu's hand. The further he walked, the smaller the flow of people became and it was not easy to disperse. However, he still did not let go. He just held the hand and he did not want to let go.
The two walked back a little. The shopping mall here is larger. There is a small game hall with various game machines and two rows of claw machines. Going back further, there is a dessert shop and There are several game stores, including shooting games and ring games. No matter where, there are so many people and you need to queue up.
"Want to play a shooting game?"
Ye Yu kept looking at the Hefeng Shooting Club. There were various shooting games there, gifts were hung on the top, and most of the people lining up there were couples.
"Yeah, but there are a lot of people."
Ye Yu tapped her toes. The number of people watching was several times the number of people playing. There were two other people competing, and the staff couldn't even keep up with them in hanging the balloons. On the other side, there are target shooting, obstacle shooting, and direct shooting gift ropes. These games are also available in shopping malls in the city, but Ye Yu is still a little eager to try them.
"Do you two want to play a game? It's a New Year event. It's fifteen yuan and fifty rounds. If you win thirty rounds, you can choose the grand prize. If you win ten rounds, you can get the Year of the Dragon mascot. If you win forty rounds, you can get the Year of the Dragon commemorative edition. For couple bracelets, there aren’t many people queuing up now, and the people over there are pretty fast, so it only takes five or six minutes to wait, why don’t you give it a try?”
A staff member wearing camouflage uniforms was carrying four or five cute baby dragon dolls of different shapes. When he saw the two people stopping to watch, he came forward to sell them.
"No, no, let's go over there and have a look!"
Ye Yu tugged on Ai Hao's sleeve and was about to leave. Although she didn't have to wait for a long time, looking at the crowded crowd, Ye Yu gave up.
"Handsome, such a cute baby dragon, do you really not want to get one for your girlfriend?"
The staff member persisted, looking at the two people's backs and shouting again. This shout from his girlfriend made Ye Yu feel a little uncomfortable, and her face turned red.
"If you really don't want to play, you don't have to wait for a long time. If you want to play, we will go there and wait for a while."
Ai Hao followed Ye Yu and looked at her lovingly.
"No, those prizes are useless. Once you win, the boss will definitely not recycle them. Let's go catch the dolls. At least the boss can recycle them."
Ye Yu let go of Ye Yu's sleeves, jumped into the doll shop, and skillfully scanned the code to withdraw coins.
