Chapter 668 - 658: The Star Who Isn’t a Star
On the way to the museum, the sky, which was shrouded in dark clouds, had completely darkened, and fine raindrops began to fall from the sky. Because the rain came unexpectedly, the staff hurriedly found umbrellas and handed them to the ten team members.By this time, the light drizzle had turned into moderate rain. Watching the staff, drenched in rain, hurriedly bring over the umbrellas, Bi Xia paused slightly. Seeing them turn around to run back, she reached out and grabbed the corner of one staff member’s clothes, handing her the already opened umbrella in her hand.
Seeing the two young girls look at her in surprise, Bi Xia nodded lightly and said, "My mom says girls shouldn’t get wet in the rain."
Saying this, she stuffed the umbrella into the hand of the girl she had grabbed, bent down, and entered the umbrella already waiting for her beside Xu Renfei. She didn’t look back, everything seemed like a routine daily matter; she just put one hand in her pocket and walked slowly forward with Xu Renfei, conversing as she went.
The two girls stared blankly at the boy wearing a red team uniform with a microphone hanging around his neck. Then they looked up at the big black umbrella, large enough to easily shield two people from the wind and rain. Somehow, because of the cold rain and the unadapting social interactions they encountered, their hearts, which had grown cold, suddenly warmed up...
"Pfft... Linnin," one of the girls suddenly laughed, "I’ve seen so many celebrities, but I have never become a fan of anyone. Yet I never thought that because of an umbrella, I would become a fan of a not-yet-famous star."
The girl named Linnin also laughed. She was not as outgoing and generous as her friend; she smiled reservedly and nodded vigorously, "Yes, me too!"
"Hahaha, let’s go, quickly back. Didn’t you say something good was happening today? You can’t get wet in the rain, let’s hurry!"
"Yes, yes!"
Bi Xia still didn’t know she had inexplicably gained two little fans. At this time, she was following the team into the museum, listening to the mayor’s introduction to the museum.
Compared to Xu Renfei’s surprise, Bi Xia seemed relatively calm. It wasn’t that she wasn’t interested in these ancient artifacts, but rather she had discovered something interesting.
’Are you saying that this ancient water town used to be an ancient trade market?’ Bi Xia touched her chin curiously. If this were true, it would explain why the museum was located here.
[That’s right. Though it was called a trading market, it was actually more like private transactions that didn’t go through official channels. After the museum was established, these private transactions faded away,] 007 said, looking at the information on the electronic screen. [There’s one more thing.]
[Several artifacts from the Qin Dynasty and some from unknown but older dynasties were dug up on the back mountain of the ancient water town. These artifacts were later handed over to the state,] 007’s face twisted as it continued, [and hence, the town has been called an ancient town ever since.]
Bi Xia squinted her eyes. ’007, do you think this place could develop in the future?’
[Hmm...] 007 paused, [Not likely.]
Listening to 007, Bi Xia smiled, ’I think it could very well happen.’
[Why?] 007 frowned, [Though Ancient Water Town has a good environment and a museum that attracts some visitors, large-scale development is practically impossible.]
[The town’s traffic, being surrounded by mountains and accessible only by car, is inconvenient. Moreover, it’s somewhat remote in Qing City. Few would come to such an unfamiliar, hard-to-reach place unless in a group.]
’But what if we gave them a reason they couldn’t refuse to come?’
[Hmm?]
