However, the others did not notice this and walked forward one after another.

Shen Li pressed down the baseball cap on her head, slowed down her footsteps, and walked behind them.

There were people coming and going at the airport. It was probably because their team was too eye-catching that many people were looking in their direction.

Ji Shu’s short silver-gray hair was very eye-catching. In addition to his originally rough and tough appearance, his entire body exuded an unrestrained and unruly aura, which made him even more eye-catching.

All the group of team members following behind him were tall and handsome.

Not to mention Lu Huaiyu, who was walking at the end.

He was extremely tall, with wide shoulders and a narrow waist. His well-fitted black shirt and trousers made his head and body look even more perfect, his clothes showing off the impeccable lines of his body.

His black hair fell over his forehead, faintly covering his brow bones, which made his eyes appear even more profound and dark, cold and ascetic.

What was more interesting was that he was holding a girl’s hand.

The girl was slender and tall. She wore a simple white t-shirt, blue jeans, white shoes, and a baseball cap on her head. One could vaguely see that the lines of the profile of her face were exquisite and perfect, and her skin was clear and fair.

When the group of people came to the exit, the bus that Yang Tao had arranged to pick them up had arrived.

Everyone got on the bus and sat down.

The bus headed towards the hotel where they were staying.

It was the first time that most of the team members had ever come to Leland. They could not help but be curious and they kept looking at the scenery that flashed past the window.

Leland was indeed a city that was filled with an artistic atmosphere. The gothic-style cathedral was solemn and classical. There were crowds of pigeons standing in the square with centuries-old sculptures. All kinds of art galleries and museums could be seen everywhere.

The streets and alleys were filled with a rich historical and cultural atmosphere. The combination of long-standing ancient buildings and the bustling crowd created a very lively and beautiful scene.

Even Ji Shu and the others, who had never had much of an interest in such things, had to admit that Leland was indeed a city full of unique charm.

Although the seven-hour flight had been very tiring, the novelty of being new to the city diluted the tiredness. Some of the team members even raised their mobile phones and took photos of the scenery outside the bus.

Shen Li, on the other hand, put her phone away after sending a message to Shen Zhijin. She sat back in her seat and closed her eyes to rest them, as if she was not interested in these things.

Gu Siyang was introducing the scenic spots to Ron and the others. When he turned around and saw Shen Li close her eyes again, he asked, “Sister, are you not feeling well?”

Shen Li opened her eyes and shook her head.

Gu Siyang saw that her expression was normal and her eyes were bright. She did not seem to have any problems, so he was relieved.

He pointed out the window.

“Look, that’s the Vito Clock Tower over there.”

Shen Li followed his line of sight and looked over.

“That’s one of the famous landmarks in Leland. From there, follow Phil Street all the way west and you’ll reach the Victoria Velodrome. That’s also the venue for the championship.”

Victoria, which was the Spanish word for “Victory.”

Giving the velodrome this name had a profound meaning.

Shen Li nodded.

Gu Siyang felt that it was a little strange.

“Sis, why do I feel that… you don’t seem to be very interested in these things?”

Wasn’t this her first time here?

Not to mention other things, seeing the venue of the upcoming competition should have made her curious and excited, right?

However, she had been extremely calm and collected from the beginning to the end, as if she did not care about these things at all.

However, the importance of the competition venue was self-evident, especially in such an unfamiliar venue. She needed to familiarize herself with and understand it as soon as possible, otherwise, it would very likely affect the final result.

Shen Li tilted her head.

“No, it’s probably because I’m a little tired from flying.”

That was true.

After all, it had been such a long flight.

Gu Siyang quickly said, “Then let’s head to the hotel. Then you can rest well first. Shall we just train together tomorrow?”

It was already evening. This was the arrangement that they had already made anyway.

Shen Li nodded in agreement.

Yang Tao, who was sitting next to him, also smiled and said, “We’re here today to get adjusted to our jet lag. There’s no other mission. Everyone just needs to relax. July and August are the rainy seasons in Leland. There’s a lot of rain, and the weather is always gloomy. It’ll be much better in September.”

Shen Li looked out of the window.

At this moment, they were passing by a bridge. The warm orange sunset was reflected in the river water, sparkling.

Yang Tao said, “Today is a sunny day. The sunset is very beautiful. Everyone should take a good look at it.”

Gu Siyang had already raised his phone.

Shen Li leaned against the back of the chair, her expression calm and unperturbed.

After taking pictures of the scenery, Gu Siyang turned on the front camera of his phone again. He planned to take a selfie with Shen Li, who was sitting at the back.

“Sister, look over here. I’ll take a picture and report it to my parents.”

Shen Li turned her head to cooperate. There was a distant look in her beautiful eyes and brows and there was a hint of a smile on her face.

Click.

“Okay! I’ll Photoshop the picture a little!”

After Gu Siyang finished taking the picture, he lowered his head and started to fix the picture.

After fiddling with it for a while, Yang Tao finally could not help from leaning over to ask.

“Master Gu, why is it taking you so long to fix this photo?”

He paused and looked at Gu Siyang, who had already obviously improved his appearance by several levels in the photo, in silence.

Well, with such a huge amount of work, it was no wonder it was taking him so long to fix it…

“To post it to the family group chat, of course, it has to look better!”

In Gu Siyang’s opinion, this was the first time he was out “alone” with his sister. It was a rare opportunity, so of course, he had to cherish it. He had to show off more.

After that, he finally sent the enhanced photo to his family group, and at the same time, he sent a photo of the setting sun.

As soon as he sent it, someone immediately replied.

Gu Siqi: [ Wow! Cousin is really beautiful! But who’s the person next to her? ]

Gu Sicheng: [ Cousin, is this the team member that you guys went to Leland to participate in the competition together? He’s quite handsome! ]

Gu Siyang’s face instantly darkened.

However, the brothers clearly did not notice his current emotions on the other end of the screen.

Gu Siqi: [ This sunset looks good too! ]

Gu Sicheng: [ Cousin, why didn’t you send a photo of you and cousin together??? ]

A moment later, a notification appeared in the group: Gu Siyang has withdrawn a message.

Gu Sicheng quickly added: [ Cousin, why did you withdraw our cousin’s photo? I want to see it! ]

Gu Siyang gritted his teeth and turned around.

“Sister, those two rabbits… I mean, those two brats asked you to send a photo.”

Shen Li then opened the family group chat and saw a bunch of chat logs on it. She was silent for a moment.

Gu Siyang let out a long sigh and comforted himself.

“Forget it, forget it. I won’t argue with them. At least the picture of that sunset that I took was beautiful!”

Yang Tao smiled and said, “Yes, in this world, a sunset on a clear day is indeed the most beautiful.”

Hearing his words, two voices suddenly spoke at the same time.

“No.”

The car was silent for a moment.

Everyone looked over at the same time.

Yang Tao’s slightly surprised gaze swept over Lu Huaiyu and Shen Li and smiled.

“Oh?”
