Leisurely Traveler with Check-in System

Ze Wangxiu frankly shared these industry secrets with Li Younan, which immediately dampened his enthusiasm for finding a horse to ride here.

There was a lot of food purchased, almost impossible to finish, and Li Younan had overestimated the appetite of the three women.

Everyone was a bit tired now, so they leisurely lay back on chairs under the canopy, enjoying the breeze and resting.

Li Younan also went over to sit down.

Zhao Xiaofang complained, "Ruoxuan, look at how beautiful this scenery is, the colors are so harmonious and unified. Why don’t you do some sketching here?"

Zhao Ruoxuan rolled her eyes.

Ze Wangxiu, curious, asked, "You can draw?"

Zhao Ruoxuan shrugged: "Just average."

But seeing that Li Younan and Ze Wangxiu both looked curious, she decided to show off a bit and slowly fetched her drawing board and paints from the car.

Not far away, a small creek flowed by with clear water, and she also fetched a bucket of water to use for painting later, then prepared to start drawing.

Ze Wangxiu and Li Younan, curious, stood behind Zhao Ruoxuan watching her draw.

Feeling a bit embarrassed being watched, Zhao Ruoxuan said with some dissatisfaction, "Hey, stop staring at me, I can’t draw with you watching."

Everyone was fairly familiar by now, so Ze Wangxiu teased her somewhat sarcastically, "That means your drawing skills aren’t high enough. If they were, you wouldn’t be afraid of others watching you, right?"

Zhao Ruoxuan retorted, "Don’t simplify things; drawing is very difficult."

Ze Wangxiu continued teasing, "How difficult can it be?"

Talking about her specialty, Zhao Ruoxuan naturally became a bit pretentious, snorted, and said, "Putting aside high-level operations like watercolor paint mixing, take basic sketching for example; just drawing a straight line, you couldn’t even draw it straight."

Then she pulled out a pencil: "You don’t believe me, try it and you’ll know."

Li Younan smiled, took the pencil, and right in front of her, drew a line as straight as one printed by a ruler with a ’swish’ sound.

Li Younan could sculpt, so he could also sketch.

Zhao Ruoxuan was a bit stunned, blinked her eyes, and coughed, saying, "This... this is just basic; next you need to know what perspective means, like that wooden shed over there, it’s considered a rectangular shape, but to draw it like a rectangle, you need to have the perspective in mind... like this and that..."

Li Younan thought for a moment, then swiftly sketched the outline of the wooden shed.

This time, Zhao Ruoxuan really couldn’t sit still, she stood up and exclaimed, "You... you must have learned to draw!"

Li Younan earnestly shook his head, "No? Just what you taught me just now..."

Zhao Ruoxuan’s expression was full of disbelief.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible!"

She looked at the lines on the drawing board, then glanced at the wooden shed over there.

Suddenly, a small car appeared in view, a manual Chery from about 10 years ago, looking decidedly worn out.

The car stopped in front of the wooden basin, and a few people got out.

Zhao Ruoxuan exclaimed in surprise.

Next to her, Ze Wangxiu chuckled and said, "Those are the university students I mentioned earlier."

Saying that, Ze Wangxiu headed over there.

These university students were also locals, maybe Tibetan, but it was hard to tell from their appearance.

Ze Wangxiu went over and chatted with them, and they glanced over at Li Younan and the others, smiling, then walked over.

Guests are always welcome, and since everyone was young, they easily started chatting.

Fortunately, Li Younan had bought too much barbecue food today, so having some people to help eat it was great.

After chatting briefly, they learned these university students had returned to start a business.

Their entrepreneurial project was to set up a Tibetan cultural experience store on this grassland.

The experience activities were quite rich, including making stone-ground tsampa by hand, Tibetan-style textile work, archery...

"And archery?" This was something originally Li Younan wanted to say, but Zhao Ruoxuan quickly said it first.

Li Younan glanced at Zhao Ruoxuan beside him, full of anticipation, and didn’t say anything.

Since acquiring archery skills, he honestly hadn’t had a chance to try them yet.

The archery scenes he envisioned were merely those archery experience centers in major cities.

He had previously planned to try it when he had the chance, after all, he didn’t know yet what the experience described by the skill, like "hit wherever you point within 70 meters," would be like, but imagined it must be wonderful.

As always, Zhao Ruoxuan was sociable and bold, asking the university student, "Could we try it out?"

Their Tibetan cultural experience store hadn’t officially opened yet, everything was still in preparation. Today they came up to handle the nearby weeds.

However, there were bows and arrows; that wooden shed was for the archery experience.

They followed the university students over, and then saw that there were several straw targets placed inside the wooden shed.

The young man fetched a bow and a quiver from the car, containing about a dozen arrows, apologetically saying, "We haven’t started officially, so we didn’t bring target papers, you’ll have to shoot at the straw targets over there."

This didn’t really matter.

The group gathered here to try archery.

The first one excitedly eager to try was naturally Zhao Ruoxuan.

The young man demonstrated once, and she impatiently picked up the bow and arrow.

To Li Younan’s slight disappointment, he saw at once it was an entry-level compound bow.
