It was surprising that in just over a year, Wen Ruohan had become a mature secretary to the principal.
"Bin, call Chen Jun and Ouyang Chen, let’s go!"
Under the careful guidance of Wen Ruohan, the six people from Mist City Arts and Science University left the hotel, took public transport in the city area, and began to experience the richest city in Europe and one of the most livable cities in the world.
According to Wen Ruohan’s guide, the Old Town of Zurich is a must-see. A tram ride will get you there.
"This is Gothic architecture, isn’t it?"
Walking down the streets of Zurich’s Old Town, Huang Youjie glanced around. Occasionally, he could see a few European beauties, and the architecture here was obviously different from back home.
Upon arriving in front of a building, Huang couldn’t resist any longer and quickly called Wen Ruohan to start taking photos in front of the building.
"Hey, hey, hey, Xiao Wen is my personal secretary." Ding Yue glared at Huang and joked, "Do you know that I charge for taking your photos?"
Huang was completely immersed in posing for various photos and didn’t pay any attention to Ding Yue.
Ding Yue discovered that Zurich’s Old Town was a hub for traditional craftsmen, antique traders, bookstores, and flower shops, as well as jewelry and fashionable boutiques.
Obviously, the best way to explore the Old Town is on foot. The streets were not like those inside the country. The roads were paved with cobblestones stretching through the city. A slow walk through the quiet streets under sufficient light was perfect for photography.
Further down the street, Wen Ruohan was quickly attracted by a jewelry store.
"Principal Ding, can I go in and have a look?"
Wen Ruohan asked Principal Ding for permission.
After all, as a girl, it would be more appropriate to visit a jewelry store. However, exploring a jewelry store could take some time, so she asked Principal Ding if they could wait for her.
Upon hearing her request, Ding Yue, with a smile, nodded in approval.
So Wen Ruohan hurried into the jewelry store.
Despite being in the Old Town of Zurich, the richest city in Europe, there was no shortage of jewelry and fashionable goods. Renowned brands were everywhere, evidently reflecting the high consumption here.
About five minutes later, Wen Ruohan came out of the jewelry store with a crestfallen look.
"Are you done shopping?"
Ding Yue asked upon seeing Wen Ruohan’s deflated mood.
Wen Ruohan echoed a phrase often spoken by many of today’s young people when facing the cost of consumption.
"On this trip to Europe, you handled a lot for us all. So, I’ll reward you. Go in and pick a piece of jewelry you like, and I’ll pay." Ding Yue said with a light laugh to Wen Ruohan.
After hearing what he said, Wen Ruohan’s face lit up with joy, and she asked in surprise, "Principal Ding, really?"
"Hmm? When have I ever gone back on my word?" Ding Yue shrugged nonchalantly.
"Yay! Long live Principal Ding!"
Wen Ruohan, reigniting in excitement and joy, once again rushed back into the jewelry store.
In the end, Wen Ruohan picked a piece of jewelry worth around 500 euros, which is about 3,500 yuan.
It was only when Ding Yue went into the jewelry store to pay that he found out, the piece of jewelry Wen Ruohan chose was actually one of the cheapest items in the store.
"Wen Ruohan, you could have chosen better pieces, why did you only pick a piece of jewelry worth 500 euros?"
Upon leaving the jewelry store, Ding Yue couldn’t help but curiously ask Wen Ruohan.
Under similar circumstances, a more vanity-loving girl would probably have chosen jewelry worth thousands of euros or even more expensive ones.
"I think this piece is really pretty, and I like it a lot. It’s 500 euros, Principal Ding, that’s a lot!"
Wen Ruohan said purely and joyfully.
Upon hearing this, Ding Yue couldn’t help but chuckle.
This girl was indeed a good person.
After a tour of Zurich’s Old Town and experiencing its unique cityscape, Ding Yue and the others unknowingly arrived again at the riverside.
This river should be the Limmat River cuddling the Old Town.
By the river, tourists were interacting with swans, forming quite an interesting picture.
"Can you imagine how enjoyable life would be if we lived here?"
"This is the richest city in Europe. Without money, life here wouldn’t be so pleasant."
"Hahaha, thinking about it, I actually think that back home is quite good."
"That’s right, we have many pleasant cities in Xia Country, and even better landscapes. Zurich, after all, is just ."
"By the way, Chen Jun, where would you like to live in the future?"
"I want to go to Shu City. The pace of life is slower there. What about you?"
"I want to buy a villa in a quiet environment, and when I have nothing to do, I’ll do some software programming. That life would be so comfortable."
Chen Jun and Ouyang Chen, two students from the computer science department, walked along the banks of the Limmat River and started conversing.
"I think your idea is quite good, Ouyang Chen," Ding Yue said, naturally joining in their conversation, "Work hard in the future, and the money for a villa will come quickly. After all, with the progress of technology, who wouldn’t want to work remotely in their own villa amidst the peace and quiet?"
