CHAPTER 886: CHAPTER 886: HEADING TO THE MILITARY DISTRICT

After taking the photos, Lu Miaochan pulled Ye Xuan to other places, taking photos with various famous buildings around the area.

In total, they took dozens of photos. Lu Miaochan was still enthusiastic, finding great joy in it. As the photographer, Wei Xiaosu also joined in for group photos with Ye Xuan and Lu Miaochan!

As expected, taking photos seemed to be a natural instinct for women. The two of them played for almost an hour, taking pictures until the phone memory was almost full, before stopping!

After playing for so long, Lu Miaochan’s excitement faded, and the allure of Chaotian Gate significantly diminished.

Returning to the Chaotian Gate tower, she didn’t feel much like playing anymore and felt a bit bored, saying, "Oh... Ye Xuan, it seems to me that Chaotian Gate is just like that, it’s merely a city gate, nothing much fun."

Ye Xuan pouted, saying, "You just realized? It was never that interesting here in the first place. I think this is the most boring place in Shangjing! You were just curious; all those famous scenic spots are much better in legend than reality."

Having taken so many photos with the two women, Ye Xuan was already somewhat bored.

Seeing the other party so enthusiastic earlier, he hadn’t said anything, but now he finally let himself complain a bit!

"There’s still a lot of time left, where should we go next to play?" Lu Miaochan asked.

Having managed to visit Shangjing, she didn’t want it to end so quickly. She wanted to explore other places and experience the charm of this ancient city.

"Seems like there’s nowhere fun to go." Ye Xuan shrugged and said, "I think there are plenty of boring places though!"

In Ye Xuan’s view, this city was too modern, having long lost the charm of an ancient city, and the only worthwhile site to see was the Imperial City Ancient Palace.

Lu Miaochan thought for a moment and suggested, "Actually, I would like to see Jiang City and Guyan Palace, but Jiang City is too far, so we’ll have to wait for the next opportunity! How about visiting Guyan Palace?"

"I’m indifferent, you can choose wherever you want to go." Ye Xuan shrugged and said.

"Hehe, alright then! It’s happily decided, next stop is Guyan Palace!" Lu Miaochan promptly made the decision.

Next, the three of them walked straight through the Chaotian Gate tower, heading towards Guyan Palace.

After buying tickets, they wandered around Guyan Palace for two to three hours, took some more pictures, bought some souvenirs, and by the time they came out, it was already 4:30 in the afternoon.

The trip to Guyan Palace ended, Lu Miaochan was still not satisfied, deeply amazed by the grand and majestic palace left behind by history for thousands of years!

As Lu Miaochan was still reminiscing about what she had seen and thought, Wei Xiaosu suddenly spoke, "Brother Xuan, Sister Miaochan, if you still want to play, I can take you to have a tour around the military district?"

"Military district?"

Lu Miaochan paused, then curiously widened her eyes and looked at Wei Xiaosu, asking, "Susu, I’ve seen the military district on TV, isn’t that where the army stays?"

"Yes, the military district is where the army is stationed! Not only are there troops there, but also planes, tanks, and big guns! I think it’s much more fun than here!" Wei Xiaosu explained with a smile.

Lu Miaochan was somewhat tempted by Wei Xiaosu’s words.

But before she could inquire, Ye Xuan, nearby, smirked and said, "Little Susu, why bring up the military district? Don’t you just mean to take us to your house? Just say it straight!"

He clearly saw through her mind with his words.

Wei Xiaosu blushed slightly, playfully stuck out her tongue, and said, "Brother Xuan, you saw through it, huh? I was just afraid you wouldn’t agree, so I suggested it this way."

"Why are you taking us to your house?" Ye Xuan asked.

"It’s because my dad wants to meet you, and he instructed me to bring you back!" Wei Xiaosu said.

Ye Xuan replied, "Alright then! Thanks to Uncle Wei for helping last time, I should go thank him! So let’s go to your house."

Thus, the three of them had no objections and got into the car together.

The military district was built in the West Suburb, taking over an hour of driving to finally reach the destination!

The military district’s defense was extremely strict, with practically steps away guards and sentries every few steps. The group passed through layers of protection as solid as a copper wall and an iron wall, driving along heavily guarded roads.

It took them over ten minutes for Ye Xuan’s Mercedes-Benz and Wei Xiaosu’s black Hummer to finally arrive at the military district gate, slowly coming to a stop!

Meanwhile, the fully armed guards stationed on both sides of the gate immediately dispatched two soldiers to step forward and conduct an inspection on the two.

Of course, with Wei Xiaosu, the daughter of a military district official, as their guide, they naturally would not encounter much obstruction. The soldiers merely performed a routine check as a formality, then waved them through.

Creak!

The guard officer received the order and immediately opened the gate. Ye Xuan and Wei Xiaosu returned to their respective cars and drove one after the other into the military district.

"So this is the military district, huh? It’s my first time seeing it. It feels so majestic, just like on TV."

Driving along the military district roads, Lu Miaochan leaned against the car window, gazing at the soldiers marching in neat ranks outside, the various armored vehicles, and the helicopters roaring overhead, with a look of amazement.

Unlike what she saw on TV before, observing the military scenes in person was far more impactful than on television!

Even through the car door, one could feel the invisible solemnity and dignity. The most direct feeling was like a stone pressing on her heart, bringing a heavy sense of oppression.

At this moment, not only was Lu Miaochan full of emotions, but Ye Xuan also felt deeply moved!

He remembered that when he was a child, he often came here to play, but mostly to make trouble. He drove armored vehicles around like bumper cars, causing havoc, and stole military honors from the district leaders, getting beaten up often!

He even specifically spied on female soldiers in their camp, stealing their undergarments, resulting in the female soldiers having no clothes after their showers...

In short, he caused a lot of trouble back then and was notorious in the military district, but mostly for the wrong reasons! So much so that he was even given the notorious title of "Little Demon King of the Military District," causing headaches for many.

If it weren’t for his father Ye Tianlong’s friend, Wei Hongjun, then the deputy commander of the military district, helping Ye Xuan out, who knows what kind of trouble Ye Xuan would have caused back then!

"Hehe, I wonder if everyone still remembers me, this ’Little Scoundrel’ from back in the day?"

Ye Xuan’s eyes showed a hint of nostalgia, and he smiled knowingly.

He thought to himself: It’s me, Ye Xuan, I’m back!
