[Qi Siyuan]: We’re heading out tomorrow, so excited.
[Liao Wenxuan]: Should we line up by age?
[Ren Nianyun]: We could.
Everyone agreed, so they were sorted by age.
Big sister Gao Peiyi, second sister Xie Qian, third sister Ren Nianyun, fourth brother Nangong Hengmo... little brother Qi Siyuan.
The next day
Everyone gathered at the airport.
Nangong Hengmo took care of the baggage check-in for everyone.
Once that was done, they boarded the plane and took off.
It takes 6 hours and 30 minutes to fly from Beijing to Islamabad.
When they arrived in Islamabad, it was already past 2 PM.
Nangong Hengmo and Li Wenya had contacted a Xia Country guide in Islamabad, who arrived with three vehicles, one exclusively for luggage and the other two for passengers.
The three guys loaded the luggage into the cars, and they divided up to set off for the hotel.
The hotel that Nangong Hengmo and Li Wenya booked had many rooms.
All eight of them could stay comfortably.
The room allocation went smoothly, without any quarrels.
After sorting the rooms, Nangong Hengmo said, "You all have half an hour, then we will head to the restaurant we booked for dinner."
Nan Chu quickly organized her things, leaving so unneeded items in her suitcase.
After half an hour, everyone headed to the restaurant that Nangong Hengmo reserved.
They could all read the nu since their English was decent.
Once they ordered, they started eating.
"This steak tastes pretty good," Liao Wenxuan remarked.
Xie Qian said, "This potato stew with lamb is nice too."
Ren Nianyun laughed, "The guides picked a great restaurant."
"I was worried I wouldn’t get used to the foreign cuisine and even brought instant noodles, but it seems they won’t be needed."
Qi Siyuan: "Third sister, you can keep them as a snack."
After the al, they went back to rest.
In the evening, they strolled around and clicked so photos.
Feeling hungry, they chose what seed to be a nice restaurant for dinner.
But after eating, they felt deceived; the restaurant’s taste was quite average.
Since they weren’t full, Ren Nianyun cooked her instant noodles back at the hotel.
They had a late-night snack together.
They tidied up after eating.
Nangong Hengmo said, "The next two days will be quite busy, so don’t ss up the luggage you don’t use, otherwise, you’ll be too lazy to pack it up. The day after tomorrow, we’ll leave Islamabad to explore elsewhere."
Everyone understood.
The next day, everyone went sightseeing in Islamabad.
Nangong Hengmo handed out so pocket money, so everyone could buy sothing if they wanted to.
Nan Chu and Li Wenya browsed the souvenir shops.
"This is pretty," Li Wenya liked a hat a lot, and saw it priced at 14,000 Pakistani Rupees.
Converted to RMB, it was about four hundred yuan.
"Made in China," Nan Chu pointed at the label.
Li Wenya: "..."
Most of the items they viewed were made in China.
Still, Li Wenya bought sothing, figuring she should buy sothing since she was already there.
Nan Chu entered a silver jewelry shop, where the owner handcrafted everything on the spot.
She purchased five pairs of earrings, gifting each female friend a pair.
For the male friends, she picked ornants.
The small gifts were kept for later, intending to present them once filming was over.
In the afternoon, they visited the subway station.
This subway station was built with the help of Xia Country.
The assistance was part of Xia Country’s help to Pakistan.
This mont made everyone feel incredibly proud of their strong holand.
In the afternoon, they explored Xia Country’s infrastructure and tried on local attire in the evening.
They also went kart racing.
The eldest sister didn’t participate; she watched over the bags for everyone.
After so thrilling fun, they listened to music and had dinner before returning to the hotel.
Since they would be moving, they needed to pack their luggage.
Nan Chu’s luggage was manageable, and she packed quickly.
After packing, she took her unused luggage down to the first floor.
She also helped the elder sisters move their unused suitcases downstairs.
Early next morning, everyone calmly moved their luggage downstairs and loaded it into the vehicles.
Once loaded, they set off for Gilgit.
After over four hours of sleep, they arrived at Gilgit.
The hotel was booked by the show team.
The hotel booked by the crew was also beautiful.
Nestled in a giant valley.
Each room had a private bath.
The eldest sister and Nangong Hengmo had single rooms, the others had standard rooms.
Nan Chu and Li Wenya shared a room, since they were quite familiar with each other, they enjoyed sharing a room.
Once the rooms were allocated, they brought their luggage to their rooms.
After settling in, Nangong Hengmo checked with the hotel, which offered lunch and dinner.
Since the hotel provided als, everyone could rest without worry.
Nan Chu wasn’t tired at all, she wandered around the vicinity alone.
The architecture here was intriguing.
Nan Chu took out her phone, capturing these buildings, then shared these scenes with Jiang Han.
After chatting with Jiang Han for a while, she wandered a bit more before heading back to rest.
Once they were well-rested, they dined at the hotel, then headed out to enjoy so activities.
They arrived at a bridge constructed by connecting planks.
The planks had one step-length gaps in between, swaying and looking quite daunting.
Qi Siyuan, being brave, stepped onto it first.
Midway, the river’s waves hit, soaking his shoes.
Seeing this, the elder sisters were too scared to walk across.
It seed terrifying and unsuitable for them to play on.
Nan Chu, being bold, crossed the bridge swiftly, reaching the other side quickly.
Afterward, Nangong Hengmo, Liao Wenxuan, and Li Wenya all gave it a try and successfully reached the other riverbank.
Once across, they took a zipline back, which wasn’t as frightening.
Next, they tried river fishing.
The elder sister loved fishing, so river fishing made her very happy.
After an afternoon of fishing, they gathered their catch, which the hotel prepared for dinner.
After eating, they visited the stargazing platform to watch the stars.
They were in luck, as the night sky was filled with stars.
"These stars are beautiful," Xie Qian said.
Ren Nianyun: "It’s really rare to relax like this."
[Before coming, she was worried about eting difficult people. It could’ve been exhausting, but luckily everyone was easygoing.]
Liao Wenxuan suddenly exclaid, "A shooting star!"
Li Wenya said, "Make a wish, quick."
Everyone closed their eyes and made a wish.
After making wishes, they had a long, heartfelt conversation before heading back to the hotel.
At around 4:30, Nan Chu went to wake everyone up.
They planned to climb a mountain together to watch the sunrise today.
