1986: My Happy Life in Provence

Chapter 165: Comparison? Hehe
Ronan came to the street and found that the downstairs was in chaos.

The streets where the sheep were 'tour' were crowded with pedestrians, who swayed their bodies happily as they walked in the direction where the sheep were leaving.

Zoe pulled Ronan into the crowd:
"The Migration Festival is over and the Saint-Remy Country Music Festival is about to begin."

"But where are we going?" Ronan hardly had to walk, as he was pushed forward by the crowd behind him.

He held Zoe's hand tightly.

There were too many people and he was afraid of getting separated from Zoe.

"There is an amphitheater from the Roman era in the center of Saint-Remy. Every year, famous country singers perform there. I heard that this year's singer is Amy Newman." The music and cheers around them were so loud that Zoe had to shout into Ronan's ears for him to hear her.

Ronan thought of the scene just now and asked Zoe with a smile:
"So Carl and the others are so excited. Is it because they are going to meet their childhood idol?"

Amy Newman is now in her 60s.

It's too 'big' for kids Ronan and Zoe's age, but just right for people in their 40s and 60s.

Zoe quickened her pace:
"That was my dad's 'goddess' when he was a kid."

Ronan and Zoe were by no means "active" people. When they went downstairs, they could no longer see Freddy and Old Carl's gang.

Therefore, they failed to successfully enter the "crowded" Colosseum to experience the charm of Louis' childhood "goddess". They could only watch the ever-changing lights inside from the outside and listen to the cheers that were getting louder and louder.

However, this did not dampen the enthusiasm of the crowd at all.

In today's Saint-Remy, carnival music can be heard in every corner, everywhere is their stage, and everyone is a 'big star'!
Country music is not suitable for overly "sexy" dancing. Everyone sways their bodies flexibly to the drum beats and rhythm, like happy elves.

Parisians are not as passionate as Provencal people, but the festive atmosphere today was so strong that even though Ronan couldn't dance, he swayed slightly to the music.

And Zoe completely "liberated her nature" today, jumping to the beat like a butterfly, her body agile and light, her movements smooth and natural, she was extremely cute.

Ronan feels that every time he attends a special festival, he becomes more "unfamiliar" with these Provencal people, including Zoe, of course.

At this moment, he saw two things in Zoe that he had never seen before - confidence and passion.

"You're a great dancer." Ronan couldn't help but praise.

Because the music around them was too loud, he had to lower his head close to Zoe's ear when he spoke.

Zoe turned around briskly and whispered in Ronan's ear:

"I told you that there is no one in Provence who can't dance."

Ronan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:
"I don't think so. You dance better than anyone else."

Zoe is the most eye-catching 'dancer' around, but Ronan also attracts a lot of attention.

Of course, people watched him not because of his clumsy dancing, but because they were jealous of him for having a beautiful and 'professional' dance partner.

Zoe smiled and said in Ronan's ear:
"That's because some people 'don't dare' jump."

Ronan took a step back and raised his hands in a gesture of 'surrender':

"I swear, this is the most 'daring' moment in my life."

Oh my god, I've never danced in front of so many people, okay?
No, I should say yes, I have never danced in public!
Zoe suddenly grabbed Ronan's wrists and twisted her body to move closer:
"What about this kind?"

Ronan's body stiffened instantly.

Zoe changed her dance style
The cute elf turned into a sexy 'goddess'.

He had just seen several couples doing this kind of 'cheek-to-cheek dance', their bodies pressed tightly together, twisting and entwining, their ears rubbing against each other.

Zoe has already leaned over, so the next step is.
Zoe put her head on Ronan's chin and asked in a brisk tone:
"You don't even know how to dance this way? There's no technique to it."

Zoe's sexy voice and passionate body made the shy Parisians 'liberate their nature'.

Ronan placed his hands on her sexy waist and asked in a joking tone:

"What would you do if I said no?"

Zoe responded with her actions. She hugged Ronan back frankly, got closer, and twisted her body more sexily:
"Then I will teach you step by step."

Ronan couldn't remember how long he danced that day.

He only remembered that on that morning filled with cheerful music, he smelled the pleasant smell of shampoo, the person in his arms was so soft that he would slip through his fingers if he didn't hold her tightly, and he could feel the strong heartbeat in her chest through his own.
Everything was so strange, but that feeling made him obsessed and unable to extricate himself.

At noon, the scattered friends finally got together.

"You don't know how good I am at dancing!" Freddy secretly glanced at his wife, and when she didn't look at him, he whispered to a few men, "When Flossie was resting, several strange ladies invited me to dance." Alan also secretly glanced at his wife:
"Do you think you're the only one who has it? I just had two ladies invite me at the same time, and they complimented me on my beautiful beard."

Louis could no longer completely regard Ronan as a brother, and explained to him awkwardly:
"The festival lasts too long and everyone gets tired. So occasionally there are opportunities to dance with strangers."

Ronan suppressed his laughter and said:

"understand."

Understood.

These people rushed out in a hurry, not just to see their childhood goddess.

"What about you, Ronan? How many dance partners have you changed?" Although Old Carl did not take the initiative to talk about his "achievements", his tone revealed obvious complacency.

Is this also a comparison? Ronan complained in his heart.

"I never changed my dance partner. I only had one throughout the whole process," Ronan said calmly.

The other people looked at Ronan with regret or shrugged, as if to say:
Bro, you wasted a great opportunity.

Only Louis laughed out loud and said with satisfaction:
"It looks like you and Zoe had a lot of fun, and you took a break together."

Ronan laughed a few times:

"We never took a break. We just kept dancing."

Does bragging about 'charm' work?

I have a young body and great physical strength, do you have that?

The Migration Festival is undoubtedly a festival for men.

After the country music festival, there are small-scale sheep riding competitions, drinking competitions, cross-country running competitions, etc. In short, these are all activities that men are quite interested in, but women frown upon.

Although Ronan failed at the market, he took part in several small events after the music festival and seemed to have endless energy.

Even if the prize is only a bottle of red wine, he will use the spirit of the Provencals playing pétanque - no matter who the opponent is, he must win!

He didn't feel it obviously during the day, but when he got on the car on the way back, Ronan suddenly felt "limp".

"Son, you shouldn't have said such unlucky words this morning. You said, 'I have a feeling that today will be more tiring than working at home.' See, now you've come true, haven't you?" Feng Zhen looked back at Ronan with heartache.

Ronan said stubbornly:

"It's okay, I'm not tired."

Zoe rubbed Ronan's arm a few times:
"They were all trembling just now. I saw it."

Ronan was delighted.

In the morning, the music was too loud and the notification sounds in his ears were intermittent. In the afternoon, he worked so hard that he ignored the notification sounds in his ears.

I wonder how much I got in return for this morning of intimate conversation?

How much experience points did you gain from an afternoon of fun?
He opened the system panel and saw the light blue font. Despite the pain in his body, he shouted:

"No! I'm not tired at all, I'm so happy! I will participate in such activities every time in the future!!"
