Chapter 191: Achievement
Under the clear sky, it was another rare good weather day. Wang Feng quietly arrived at Shanghai International Airport, accompanied by his sister Wang Tian and Lu Yao.
After the championship parade, Wang Feng's family and friends returned home ahead of him, as expected, encountering a large crowd of media and fans at the airport. However, they were destined for disappointment because Wang Feng did not travel with them.
They returned to China three days later to avoid causing chaos. Although there were still reporters waiting, Wang Feng and his companions disguised themselves and, with the help of airport staff, successfully "escaped."
"This is too troublesome. Fortunately, I didn't choose to become a star," Wang Tian said with lingering fear. According to their mother, the day they returned to China, the entire airport was packed with people, countless flashes, and noisy questions coming their way.
Wang Feng smiled. It wasn't that he didn't want to face the media and fans in China; he just didn't want everyone to gather at the airport. It wouldn't be good if something unexpected happened. In fact, during this trip back to China, he would accept interviews from sports channels, visit the youth training camp of the Jia A champion Shanghai Shenhua, and interact with fans there.
In addition, with the efforts of many parties, Inter Milan decided to launch activities in China, playing several friendly matches with domestic clubs, including Shanghai Shenhua and Dalian.
After a long season, Wang Feng didn't immediately engage in high-intensity training during the holiday. Instead, he maintained his touch on the ball while enjoying the few leisurely days. Even the most determined person couldn't help but feel a bit lazy after achieving their goals.
Seeing that Wang Feng wasn't immersed in training, Wang Tian suggested going to Suzhou and Hangzhou for a trip. "Heaven above, Suzhou and Hangzhou below. I've been to Suzhou once before, and I feel like I didn't get enough. Shall we go again?"
Wang Feng, who had never been there, was intrigued. Surprisingly, Lu Yao had never been there either. "When I was young, I had to focus on studying, so I rarely went on trips," she explained with a smile.
The three of them agreed, and Wang Tian suggested, "Let's do something different this time. Let's first go to Suzhou for sightseeing, then charter a boat along the Grand Canal to Hangzhou. I've been wanting to do this for a long time!"
Wang Feng was surprised. "Is there such a way?" Wang Tian gave him a glance and said, "As long as you have money, anything is possible. Let me tell you, there's air conditioning on the boat, professional chefs, and you can even listen to Suzhou Pingtan."
"If it weren't for me being a little scared back then, I would have chosen this way long ago. It's so romantic!"
Wang Tian, always decisive, quickly booked a luxurious small boat with five guest rooms. However, this time, their family members didn't plan to join them. It was still just the three of them.
The boat would depart in the afternoon and take about seven hours to reach Hangzhou. Wang Tian's plan was to spend two days in Suzhou first, then take the boat to Hangzhou after exploring.
With Wang Tian as their guide, Wang Feng and Lu Yao had their horizons broadened and enjoyed delicious food. Lu Yao couldn't help but joke, "Tian Tian, I think you should study tourism instead of art."
Wang Tian hummed and said in a low voice, "Why do I plan so meticulously? Let me tell you, when we get on the boat later, make sure to be decisive. Always hesitating, what's the use?"
Lu Yao blushed with embarrassment. Over the years, her relationship with Wang Feng had always been like a thin layer of paper. So Wang Tian suggested that she be the one to break the ice. "What's the big deal? Modern women should dare to love and hate. Besides, my brother is so single-minded. When do you think you'll have a chance?"
When the three of them boarded the boat, the sun was still shining brightly. As the temperature in summer was high, they listened to Pingtan in the cabin. The staff had thoughtfully prepared fruit and pastries. With the air conditioning blowing and Pingtan playing, it was really comfortable. No wonder Wang Tian had been yearning for this kind of travel.
The pipa player was a girl from Hangzhou. She was very excited to hear that Wang Feng was on board and enthusiastically pulled him aside for photos. "You're even more handsome in person than on TV. My whole family loves you. My little brother even said he wants to play football when he grows up. You are the pride of our Chinese people!"
Wang Feng smiled and fulfilled her autograph request. He also wrote encouraging words for her brother. There were countless children in China who had been inspired by Wang Feng. As long as one percent of them could pursue a career in professional football, the soil of Chinese football would become very fertile.
In the evening, after dinner, Wang Feng and Lu Yao came to the bow of the boat. By this time, the temperature had dropped slightly, and the warm breeze on their faces was very comfortable. The setting sun dyed the water golden, and the buildings on both sides of the canal were ancient and quaint. Everything seemed so wonderful.
"We feel like we've traveled through time. Do you think ancient people also enjoyed such trips?" Lu Yao asked, turning her head slightly.
She looked back, the gentle breeze blowing her long straight hair, her delicate features and tender skin flawless in the sunset's glow. Her white clothes seemed to be radiating with golden light, forming a beautiful picture with the bow of the boat, the canal, and the buildings on the shore.
Wang Feng was fascinated. He would never forget this scene in his life. Many years later, when he read Wang Wei's poem "Traveling by Boat on Green Waters, Enjoying the Scenery in the Painting," he couldn't help but sigh that the poet's name was well deserved.
Seeing Wang Feng staring at her intently, Lu Yao lowered her eyes, her face slightly red but her expression firm. Wang Feng suddenly felt a bit dry in his mouth and stuttered, "I, I..."
Lu Yao tightly held Wang Feng's hand with her small hand, and her other hand rested on his waist, burying her face in his chest.
At this moment, they embraced each other, and Wang Feng finally gathered the courage to whisper, "I like you."
Lu Yao didn't speak but hugged him tighter, responding to Wang Feng's feelings with her actions. At this moment, the nineteen-year-old youth and the eighteen-year-old girl were experiencing the first stirrings of love.
They didn't know how long had passed when a cough broke the silence. The two quickly separated, and Lu Yao blushed and turned her head away, trying to withdraw her hand from Wang Feng's grasp. However, Wang Feng still held onto her, unwilling to let go. Lu Yao tried twice but failed, so she just let him hold her.
Wang Tian looked at the two with meaningful eyes and suddenly pretended to be sad, saying, "Lu Yao, I didn't expect this. I treated you as a sister, but you want to be my sister-in-law!"
Lu Yao immediately protested, "Tian Tian!" Wang Tian waved her hand, "Just kidding, just kidding. Can the Feng Yao Group be announced now?"
Wang Feng felt embarrassed. "You both knew?" Wang Tian disdainfully said, "Balmond told us the next day. Your feelings for Yao Yao are obvious to everyone."
Wang Feng felt awkward, and Lu Yao said softly, "You don't know when someone is pleased with you. I've had feelings for you for a long time."
