Chapter 197 Let’s get married
The lights in the city went out one by one.
The silver moonlight spread across the surface of the canal.
The stone fortress at the canal pier is built on the mountain, and the top of the mountain overlooks the entire canal.
Except for the boss of Los Angeles Port, there is an uninvited guest visiting tonight on the top of the mountain that no one has ever climbed to the top.
Li Jiaojiao and Lu Liang, riding on the backs of the little wolf, quietly reached the top of the mountain and looked at the river in the distance.
The silver moonlight sprinkled on the river surface, and the river surface was sparkling, as if dotted with countless tiny silver fragments. The fragments swayed gently with the rise and fall of the waves, like a galaxy hanging upside down in the world.
The breeze blew by, bringing coolness and creating ripples on the surface of the river.
The air is filled with the moist smell of earth and the faint scent of flowers, and the occasional croaking of frogs and chirping of insects add vitality and vigor to the night.
The two found a rock to sit on. Li Jiaojiao took out two cans from her sleeve like a magician, opened the pull ring and handed them to Lu Liang.
Lu Ying took it, looked at it carefully, and imitated Li Jiaojiao to take a sip. Then he looked at it tenderly and smiled, "This is beer."
"Well, beer, the wine from my hometown, is people's favorite in the hot summer. It goes well with hot pot, barbecue, and home-cooked dishes." Li Jiaojiao looked out at the river in the distance and mentioned her hometown for the first time in this strange world.
"Your hometown must be beautiful." Lu Liang's eyes never left Li Jiaojiao.
She was looking at the scenery, and he was looking at her...
"Well, actually you have seen it. That's my hometown. But I can't open that door again, and I can't see the people from my hometown." Li Jiaojiao took a sip of wine. The little wolf and Ali next to them heard the sadness of their master and came forward one by one.
Ahri was light and nimble, and she easily jumped into her master's arms.
The little wolf was too big, and if it pushed its head forward, it might push its owner down the mountain. In the end, it could only lie down, with its two paws extended to support its owner's butt...
Lu Liang tightened his grip on the can, frowned slightly, looked at Li Jiaojiao with heartache, and said nothing.
Li Jiaojiao felt the two and hugged Ahri into her arms, then turned around and touched the little wolf's head, "Fortunately, the two of them came with me, so that I can have a family in this strange world."
Li Jiaojiao let out a long sigh and looked into the distance, not even glancing at the man beside her.
Lu Liang raised his hand, wanting to hold the hand of the person next to him, "Jiaojiao..."
"I'm fine." Li Jiaojiao interrupted him and took out something and handed it to him, "I'll show you something fun. Put it on your eyes and look into the distance."
Lu Liang was slightly stunned, a little unable to keep up with the rhythm, and after a while he could only take it reluctantly, "Okay. I'll do as you say."
"Well, put this end on your eyes and the other end outward." Li Jiaojiao reached out to help Lu Liang adjust the telescope. "Yes, just like that. Pay attention to one place. Can you see it clearly?"
The "telescopic" ability of a telescope does not simply refer to how far it can see, but rather to its ability to allow us to see objects that are farther away from us more clearly and in more detail.
The magnification of a telescope determines how close an object can be brought, allowing us to observe more details.
Taking a 10x telescope as an example, if the target distance is 2000 meters, the effect of observing with the telescope is equivalent to viewing the target with the naked eye at 200 meters.
The use of a telescope allows us to see even more details.
For example, a telescope can help us see more details of a mountain top in the distance. With the naked eye, you may only see a vague outline, but with a telescope, you can see the scenery on the mountain top, the activities of animals, etc.
To sum up, one can imagine the shock an ancient person felt when using a telescope for the first time.
Even someone as calm as Lu Liang was surprised and speechless. He put down the telescope and stared at Li Jiaojiao in a daze.
Then he threw the telescope away and pulled Li Jiaojiao into his arms. His movements were so fast that even Ali was startled and ran away.
Li Jiaojiao was also confused. She hadn't used her supernatural powers to get rid of the alcohol she had been drinking, so she was still dizzy. Being hugged like this made her even more dizzy...
This was not the effect she wanted when she took out the telescope.
This thing didn't matter to her. She shared it with her good friends. What's more, she couldn't finish sharing this thing. If she took it out, there would be more inside...
The night wind blew, and their hair and clothes became tangled.
"Jiaojiao, will you... leave?" After a while, Lu Liang spoke with a choked voice, his voice hoarse.
Oh, it turns out it’s the previous topic again.
Li Jiaojiao was helpless.
She felt the large hand behind her tightening and the man in her arms trembled a little. She reached out and hugged Lu Liang back.
He rested his chin on the other's shoulder and patted his back to comfort her. "I won't leave on my own initiative."
But she had no say in her coming here. Does she have the final say on whether to leave or not?
Li Jiaojiao was absent-minded for a moment. She didn't notice Lu Liang's abnormality, nor did she see his bloodshot eyes.
But the other party's gradually tightening arms still hurt her. She came back to her senses and said, "Just in case, I mean just in case, I have to leave, I will find a way to come back, okay?"
"Let's go back to Beijing to get married." Lu Liang closed his eyes to hide the bloodshot eyes.
Li Jiaojiao: ...Huh?
What's wrong with her that she has to come to the top of the mountain to get some fresh air today?
There are others who say such nonsense.
In the end, a telescope scared a man so much that he wanted to get married.
She hasn't had enough of love yet and doesn't want to enter the grave of marriage. Besides, what if there is someone more handsome and considerate...
"Hmm..." Yyy's Li Jiaojiao's mouth was suddenly blocked...
The whole person was embedded in the embrace of the strange fragrance, and the head was imprisoned by a big hand, unable to break free...
The stars in the night sky blinked, the wind blew, and the moonlight could not separate the overlapping figures on the top of the mountain, but only reflected them together...
……
"Jiaojiao, let's get married, okay?" After a while, Lu Liang reluctantly left Li Jiaojiao's lips, but his hands were still around her.
"The Los Angeles pier is yours, right? At the very least, we've been on the top of the mountain for so long that they wouldn't have failed to notice us." Someone read the random reply.
Lu Liang sighed softly, knowing that he was the one who suddenly proposed marriage, which probably scared Jiaojiao. "Yes, they wanted to go to see you, but I stopped them. I will take you to the Stone Fort tomorrow."
"No need to turn around, let's set off tomorrow. Are these extra seafood and sturgeons in the backyard sent by them?"
"Yes, you like it."
"Yeah, I like it. Give them a few telescopes as my return gift."
“Thank you, Madam!” A few loud voices of thanks came from the valley below. “Please leave a list of the seafood that Madam likes, and we will deliver it to the capital later. And if we find anything new in the future, we will send it to Madam as well! Hehehe…”
Although no one knew what a telescope was, the lady's reputation had spread internally, and her actions shocked the world.
What's more, that telescope was what the master asked for directly. It can see far and wide. Just hearing the name, it seems very suitable for them to go out on the ship.
"You guys are thoughtful." Lu Liang said with a dark face, his eyes accusing Li Jiaojiao who was laughing so hard that her body was shaking.
The people at the dock were so busy having fun that they forgot they were eavesdropping and had exposed themselves, until they heard the young master's voice. They staggered and quickly ran away.
