半两·咖啡书店·浮生是杯酒

A truly unique coffee shop with a beautiful environment! The location is a little hard to find, but you must go there. The coffee is delicious and the food is also excellent.

I spent four days in Wuxi, and today was the most special day of all! Yesterday, I met up with a sister from our group chat, and she brought my friend and me two bouquets of flowers—they were gorgeous! (See picture 1) Since my friend and I were taking the train back to school at 4 PM, we went to the Chicken, Duck, and Goose Restaurant and then to Banliang Coffee this morning. At that time, I was wondering what to do with the flowers. Initially, I ran into some friends I'd met at the clinic yesterday, and I asked them when they were going back, thinking I could give them the flowers if it was convenient, since we probably wouldn't be able to take them back ourselves, given the 16-hour hard-seat train journey (poor college students!). But they were also going back that evening, so they couldn't take them. So I wondered what to do. I initially thought about unwrapping the flowers and giving one to everyone at the coffee shop, but I didn't want to ruin such beautiful flowers. When I was at my wit's end, a friend (she wasn't a fan, she just came with me to take photos) suggested, "Why don't you leave these two bouquets at the shop, next to your photo wall? That way, the flowers will be protected, and other fans can also take photos later." It was a brilliant idea! So, after consulting the owner, we placed the flowers next to the photo wall (Picture 3). Later, our offline group chat started talking because Mr. Zhao Mingchuan (actor Gangzi) went to Yingyue Lake to take photos that evening, and I suggested that I left the flowers at Banliang Bookstore so other fans could take photos. Before I even said the flowers were mine, a fellow fan posted a photo of the flowers with the photo wall! You can't imagine how I felt; tears welled up in my eyes immediately (Pictures 4/5/6/7). My fellow fans are such a lovely group of people. We waved flags together, took photos together, performed together, and sang karaoke together. I'm so lucky to have met such a loving group of people through Ray-Ban. I had a really great time in Wuxi these past few days! It felt like coming home! Moreover, I personally think Wuxi is a really good place to settle down. The pace of life is just right, and I will definitely come here often in the future!

I went to Wuxi to visit Qingzi for a day on Saturday. Although I've been to Wuxi several times before, this time I went to places I hadn't been to before! ✨Sheng'an Market We arrived in Wuxi around 10 am. Our first stop was Sheng'an Market for brunch. I thought the name "Sheng'an" was very artistic and pleasant to hear. We bought fried chicken strips and fried pork chops, and also had wontons and potstickers. Qingzi even bought me a meat-filled plum blossom cake, which was quite delicious. Right outside was a creative street with many photo spots; it was quite pretty and I think it's worth a visit! ✨Banliang Coffee I won't go into details about why we went there, but this coffee shop was very artsy and also a bookstore. Many people were taking photos there, and I awkwardly took a couple too. I've noticed I'm becoming increasingly introverted. We didn't get coffee then, but went to a nearby Chayan Yuese (茶颜悦色) instead. The staff there kept trying to sell me their snacks and tea, which I didn't like. ✨Bogong Island We took a taxi to Bogong Island. There were many campers, lots of tents ⛺ and many cute little dogs; it's a truly therapeutic place. The park has many fun areas, it's really great, but unfortunately we only had time to explore a small part of it. I'll definitely go again next time!
