Transmigrated to a Period Novel as the Genius Antagonist's Birth Mother

Chapter 135: Graduation, Future

After playing in Haishi for a few days, with some vacation days still remaining, Chu Xia and Cen Zhengnian held a map of Haishi and looked at the surrounding cities and towns.

Many people know that around Haishi, there is Suzhou Province and Jiangnan, with architectural complexes in typical Jiangnan style—blue bricks, green tiles, and small bridges over flowing water.

Although, compared to the later commercialized ancient towns, there were not as many shops at the moment, it exuded a more ancient and charming atmosphere, allowing them to experience the elegant beauty of the Jiangnan water town.

"Let's go here."

Chu Xia pointed to a famous ancient town on the map of the future. At this moment, this ancient town was probably just developed, so there wouldn't be as many tourists as in the future, and they could enjoy a leisurely stroll through the alleys.

Cen Zhengnian circled the place Chu Xia pointed to with a pen. "Good, I'll go check what we need to prepare for the visit."

With no internet access, Cen Zhengnian found a travel agency, spent money on brochures and tour routes around Haishi, and even hired a guide to learn about the area.

Cen Zhengnian didn't hire a guide because he wanted to explore the scenery slowly with Chu Xia and enjoy their time together.

While Chu Xia packed in the guesthouse, Cen Zhengnian returned with a plan for the ancient town tour, including a booked train ticket.

Cen Zhengnian booked a tourist special bus, which went directly to the ancient town, more convenient than taking a regular intercity bus between two cities.

Looking at the well-planned itinerary, Chu Xia couldn't contain her excitement. "I was just thinking about how to get there; I don't know anything about this place."

Cen Zhengnian checked the luggage, made sure nothing was missing, closed the suitcase, and said, "You just need to say where you want to go; I've got everything covered."

Unable to resist, Chu Xia threw herself at Cen Zhengnian. He caught her steadily, and she hugged his waist happily, saying, "It's so good to have you; I don't need to use my brain when we go out in the future."

Cen Zhengnian held her, lightly touched her head with a smile, and said, "You still need to, like thinking about me."

Chu Xia nodded, and Cen Zhengnian's heart became very tender. The days of traveling with Chu Xia were so wonderful that he couldn't help but immerse himself in it, already planning the next trip in his heart.

After over an hour's drive to the ancient town, Cen Zhengnian pulled two suitcases, while Chu Xia, with a bag on her back, walked beside him, reaching out to him, "Give me one."

"No need, we'll be at the guesthouse soon."

Cen Zhengnian had booked the best guesthouse in the ancient town through the travel agency. It was originally a residence turned into an inn, typical of family-run accommodations in the area.

Because he spent money, Cen Zhengnian was willing to spend more. The guesthouse recommended by the travel agency was sincere and had good clean and sanitary services. It was opened by a middle-aged couple.

After settling in, Chu Xia and Cen Zhengnian walked hand in hand through the ancient town, enjoying the slow-paced life of the water town.

The ancient town in autumn is different from spring, lacking the tender scent of spring but adding a hint of warmth. Many fruit trees along the road are now bearing fruits, and each pomegranate hangs heavily on the branches, bending them.
