Chapter 1213 The Most Beautiful Scarred Place
Zhuang Zhoucheng looked back at his wife who had followed closely behind him and smiled gently, "I have something to do. Go and do your thing."
"Okay." Huo Yan stopped outside the study. She knew that some business secrets could not be kept secret in the presence of a third party. Although she might not understand, she still left as she was told.
Zhuang Zhoucheng called Kou Quan and asked him to finish his current work and go to Africa from Seoul. Someone would pick him up and he hoped he could bring Seventeen back safely.
Even if Zai'an and Zai'ren and some outsiders were allowed to go, Zhuang Zhoucheng was still worried. He was convinced that Kou Quan would not harm Shiqi. Moreover, his daughter also listened to Kou Quan.
After Kou Quan loaded the ordered medical equipment onto the plane, he went directly to Africa.
Before the people chasing them arrived, Zhou Haoyu and Shiqi had already landed.
When Seventeen walked out of the airport, he was stunned for a moment, looking at the big screen at the airport, his eyes widened in shock.
The big screen that was originally playing advertisements was now showing the scene where the husband brought Seventeen back to China two years ago and begged the elders of the Zhuang family to approve their marriage.
"If I betray Qiqi, I, Zhou Haoyu, will die a miserable death. For the rest of my life, I will only love Qiqi..."
Many people stopped to look at the big screen. Seventeen was a little dumbfounded. She pointed at it, pulled her husband's sleeve and asked with a smile.
"Is this a surprise for me, hubby?"
This is unbelievable, isn't it? This is Kenya. Oh my god, it doesn't seem romantic, but rather a bit scary. But, there aren't many people who can understand Chinese, right?
Zhou Haoyu's face paled for a moment. He tightened his grip on Seventeen's hand, glancing around at the people around him, his gaze searching the crowd. He and Seventeen were the first to board the plane. Even if the people tracking him were on the same flight, they couldn't have contacted the airport so quickly to make such arrangements.
Zhou Haoyu had a sullen face as he quickly pulled Shiqi out of the airport and went directly to the hotel they had booked, rented an off-road vehicle, and set off without any plans to rest.
"Don't you want the hotel money anymore?" Seventeen asked after getting in the car.
"We've booked it and we'll stay here when we get back." Zhou Haoyu said with a smile, and set off with the map.
"Will you see a man-eating lion?"
"meeting."
"Will you see a leopard?" Seventeen asked again.
"meeting."
"..."
Seventeen's eyes lit up and he began to look forward to their trip to Africa.
The off-road vehicle crossed the border from Nairobi to Namanga and headed straight to Manyara, a protected area in Tanzania.
"Then where are we going now?"
"The Great Rift Valley of East Africa."
Seventeen's eyes were curved with smiles as he leaned against the car window and looked out at the clear blue sky. He said with emotion, "What a blue sky, what a vast expanse. It's a pity that the grass is all withered and yellow. If we come here again next spring, will we be able to see a scene of lush green grass stretching to the sky?"
"Probably." Zhou Haoyu didn't say much along the way, but Seventeen's interest was getting higher and higher.
The car was speeding along the road, and the scenery along the way was so eye-catching that Seventeen asked a few questions and then stopped talking. He leaned on the car window, staring straight outside, and kept holding up the camera to take pictures "click, click".
In the deep blue sky, I don’t know if it was an eagle or something else flying happily, then it landed on a dry branch, greeting the most familiar stranger.
"Can I open the window and take a look?"
Seventeen turned to ask her husband, and after asking a few words, Zhou Haoyu seemed to hear, "Huh? No, the dust is too big."
"Just take a look." Seventeen insisted. Zhou Haoyu was helpless. "Baby, open the car window and the dust outside will rush in..."
"It's okay, just open it." Seventeen still insisted. Zhou Haoyu didn't care about her and let her play however she wanted.
Seventeen opened the car window and was greeted by a layer of yellow sand.
"what--"
She quickly rolled up the car window in fear. Zhou Haoyu took out a tissue and gave it to her, "Wipe it yourself."
Seventeen looked at her husband aggrievedly. She didn't dare to say anything when sand got into her eyes. She leaned sideways against the car window and wiped it secretly.
But it only took a moment and it was full of life again.
The car drove to Tanzania, south of the equator, into the deepest and most magical scars on the earth.
The Great Rift Valley stretches for thousands of miles, running north to south, intersecting the Earth's equator and forming a vast "cross" in East Africa. The Rift Valley reaches a depth of two thousand meters and covers an area equivalent to half the size of China. The volcanic lakes dotted here bear witness to the eternity of time, while the vibrant forests and grasslands bear witness to the passage of time.
Its scars are two thousand meters deep, making it the most poignant scarred place on earth.
The car drove smoothly into the small town of Moshi in Tanzania. Seventeen jumped out of the car and Zhou Haoyu parked the car. Seventeen had traveled around Europe on a budget with Zhou Haoyu when he was studying abroad. Later, he found out that they had chosen the wrong route for their budget travel, because more than half of Europe is a developed country, and budget travel is really unwise.
The trip was not a pleasant one because they didn't have much cash on them, and they had crossed the border and were detained for two days without any reason. This left them with a bad impression of the experience.
It might be better to travel around Africa on a budget. Many young people who travel around the world can cross half of Africa with just a mountain bike.
Moshi Town isn't very developed, and it's quite a distance from the refugee camp. The hotel I stayed in was 3,000 shillings a night, or about 120 RMB, which is quite cheap. But prices are high here: a bottle of Coke is five yuan, and mineral water, which costs one yuan in China, costs two and a half yuan here.
“Qiqi——”
Zhou Haoyu shouted, and Seventeen quickly ran towards him. Zhou Haoyu took a mask and put it on her face.
"Put it on, don't let those black guys have any bad intentions." Zhou Haoyu whispered. Seventeen touched his face and said, "Do you want to wear it?"
"I don't need it." Zhou Haoyu said readily and took the bag down from the car.
The car body was covered with a thick layer of red soil. Seventeen's fingers slid lightly across the glass. "Oh my, it's really soil..."
She was saying, "Why is the color of the car different from when we left? I thought I remembered it wrong." Luckily, the window wasn't open, or else I wouldn't know how bad the car would be.
Seventeen turned around and continued her husband's words, "So you can seduce young girls at will?"
"Little girl?" Zhou Haoyu's eyes fell on her face. Well, a mask with a ghost face and fangs, which was specially used for Halloween, was really unsightly on her face.
Zhou Haoyu reached out and took it off again, "Your husband's taste is not that strong."
There are young people here, but the body odor of black people is too strong. He came here to make up for his mistake, not to have a romantic encounter.
After entering the hotel, Seventeen looked around the room and persuaded herself in her heart that in an African town like Moshi, it was a blessing to be able to stay in a hotel with such conditions. She should stop being picky, as it was so rare for her husband to take time out to accompany her.
