PFC Chapter 330 Recognized
Chapter 330 Recognized
The first rays of sunlight ignited the pyramid-shaped Matterhorn in an instant, and the entire summit shone with a pure, intense, and blinding golden light.
The entire mountaintop is as magnificent as a burning crown, crowning the summit of the Alps.
Even more breathtaking is that the calm, mirror-like surface of Lake Stelle perfectly captures this "golden crown," creating another equally dazzling golden triangle in the underwater world.
The lake surface was bathed in holy light, presenting a magnificent golden hue.
Heaven and earth, mountains and water, are connected and interwoven by this same sacred golden hue.
"Wow..." Bai Li exclaimed, involuntarily holding her breath and staring intently at the scenery before her.
She could think of almost no other adjectives, only: "So beautiful."
It was so beautiful that it left people speechless, made their hearts tremble, and brought tears to their eyes.
Even the cold air seemed to warm up under the golden light.
All that could be heard at the scene were suppressed gasps and the clicks of camera shutters.
"Beautiful!"
"The weather is so nice today, it's such a rare treat."
"High visibility, great for photos!"
Seeing everyone around her taking out their phones to snap photos, Bai Li couldn't help but pull out her phone as well, capturing the scene before her forever.
"It was definitely worth getting up early. If I had known it would be this beautiful, I would have come every day." Bai Li began to offer some hindsight comments.
Ying Xiangyang was also engrossed in watching, but his attention was more focused on the reaction of the person in his arms. When he heard Bai Li say that, he chuckled softly, as if he wanted to hold it in, but he couldn't.
He knew Bai Li very well and knew that she was just talking big now. If he really dragged her out of bed to watch the sunrise every day, she would definitely teach him a lesson.
Bai Li subconsciously turned her head to glare at him, how dare he laugh at her.
But in the blink of an eye, he was so captivated by the beauty before him that he lost himself in it.
The rising golden sunlight shone down on Ying Xiangyang without any obstruction.
His signature white hair was no longer a cold silver, but was rendered into an extremely warm, light gold that seemed to be glowing itself—the color of sunlight.
Tiny golden glints danced on her long eyelashes, and the contours of her profile appeared even more profound and distinct under the strong light. She seemed to be enveloped in holy light, dazzlingly unreal.
Bai Li was almost stunned.
The scenery is beautiful.
She is even more beautiful.
Ying Xiangyang is so beautiful; she lives up to her name, like a little sun.
Noticing Bai Li's focused gaze, Ying Xiangyang lowered his head and raised an eyebrow: "Hmm? What's wrong?"
His eyes narrowed slightly in the bright light as he looked at her, his gaze focused and filled with undisguised love.
—This is her sun.
"It's nothing," Bai Li smiled contentedly, looked away, and leaned her head back into his arms, feeling the steady heartbeat from his chest.
She raised her phone, turned on selfie mode, and took an incredibly beautiful selfie of herself and this "Mr. Sun".
I must take a picture of Ying Xiangyang in the Golden Legend version and keep it.
Ying Xiangyang was very cooperative, casually making a "yeah" sign and smiling. Even from a bad angle, he looked incredibly handsome.
Confident people are not afraid of any camera or angle.
He took several more pictures of Bai Li until she got tired of it, and then he stopped.
As Ying Xiangyang was holding Bai Li's phone, sending him all the photos he had just taken, a weak voice came from beside him, filled with uncertainty and surprise: "Um, hello, are you Yang Shen and President Bai?"
Because it was in Chinese, the two of them turned around simultaneously as a reflex upon hearing it, and found that it was a couple in their early twenties.
The girl walked over, holding her boyfriend's hand, looking curious.
"Oh no, we've been recognized." Bai Li realized something was wrong and exchanged a glance with Ying Xiangyang.
The road was full of foreigners, and I hardly saw any fellow countrymen. I thought there weren't many Chinese people here.
For safety and to enjoy the scenery while hiking, the two took off their sunglasses, leaving their faces completely unobstructed.
But they forgot one fact: Chinese people are found in almost every corner of the world.
If Lanzhou noodles can be opened in the desert, it goes without saying that among those who come here to watch the sunrise, there must be Chinese tourists as well.
One is a world champion, and the other is a business celebrity; they've recently become incredibly popular in China.
However, neither of them returned to China after becoming famous, so they had no clear idea of just how popular they were.
In fact, any Chinese person who has ever been online or seen trending topics would find them somewhat familiar. The two were completely unprepared and were recognized in no time.
Denial is impossible; no two people in the world look exactly alike.
Moreover, both of them are very good-looking, especially Ying Xiangyang with his white hair, who is very easy to recognize.
Although the girl asked a question, judging from her excited expression and the way she asked the question, she was actually very sure that she had mustered up the courage to come and ask.
Since there's no way to avoid it, it's better to just admit it openly. Bai Li nodded: "Yes."
"Ahhh! Oh my god! It really is you guys! How lucky!" the girl shrieked softly, pulling her boyfriend a few steps closer while maintaining a polite distance. "Mr. Bai, you're even more handsome in person than in photos. And congratulations to Mr. Yang on winning the championship."
But then she cautiously asked, "Are you two together?"
Although the two distanced themselves a little after she got closer, she had clearly seen them hugging from the other side.
Fearing misunderstanding, she added, "Oh, I'm sorry, if you think I'm being too abrupt, you don't need to answer me."
"It's okay, we're together." Bai Li generously took Ying Xiangyang's hand, "We just haven't made it public yet."
Ying Xiangyang was surprised that Bai Li would admit their relationship so openly in front of outsiders. He smiled and then tightly grasped Bai Li's hand.
"Wow!" The girl covered her mouth, equally surprised that Bai Li would respond, and exclaimed excitedly, "Congratulations! You two are such a perfect match!"
"Thank you," Bai Li replied with a gentle smile.
"So... if you haven't gone public, is it inconvenient to take photos together?" the girl asked cautiously.
"It might not be convenient for the time being." Bai Li nodded.
—She had no intention of making her private feelings public.
"Okay, I understand. I wish you happiness." The girl offered a few more blessings before turning back every few steps, her face beaming with an incredulous and excited smile, and leading her boyfriend away into the distance.
"They're actually a couple?! That's so unbelievable, so surreal!"
"Why is there absolutely no word of this online? They've kept it hidden so well!"
"Yeah! Yang Shen is so high-profile in the competition, and President Bai is also a well-known figure in the business world, how come no one has dug it up?"
The man lowered his voice, speaking with an air of worldly wisdom, "A big shot like President Bai must have information blackouts, so this kind of news can't leak out at all. Haven't you noticed how little private information about President Bai is available online?"
"Hiss... That makes sense! This is what a real elite family is like..."
This couple had actually gotten close to the edge of the truth.
Meanwhile, in the office of a well-known sports media outlet.
A few days ago at the competition, reporter Xiao Wang, who successfully intercepted Bai Li and witnessed Ying Xiangyang pulling Bai Li away, was scratching his head in front of the computer screen.
