After being found by her wealthy family, Du Anrao unexpectedly awakened and discovered that the world she was in was a hot topic, genre-bending hodgepodge.
Her eldest brother was the '冤...
Chapter 135 I'm afraid it's a big melon
Xi Jingyue's calculations could be heard by people thousands of miles away. Du Anrao was stunned for a moment before saying, "Will this be too much trouble for you?"
"No, it's just a matter of convenience. It's no big deal. Since this is your first time going to City C, it would be safer to have someone lead the way."
Duanrao thought about it and agreed. It was the first time for both her and her uncle to go to City C. If they really got lost and went to the wrong place, it would really be a waste of time.
Those who were going there were not afraid of delay, but Miss Qin could not wait.
"Then I'll trouble you, Mr. Xi. We'll set off early tomorrow morning."
"Okay, send me a message when you arrive and I'll pick you up."
What Du Anrao didn't know was that as soon as she hung up the phone, Xi Jingyue immediately asked his assistant to help book the nearest flight to City C that day.
The assistant was stunned for a moment, and reminded: "But Mr. Xi, you have several meetings to attend tomorrow, and you have also made an appointment with Mr. Shao."
"The meeting is postponed. As for President Shao, tell her that Miss Du needs my help. We can discuss cooperation next time."
Based on Xi Jingyue's understanding of Du Anrao, she would not follow her relatives to other places for no reason, and she would not find acquaintances in advance to find out the situation. It must not be as simple as going to a hot spring.
He had to go and take a look, who knows what shocking news he might uncover.
Du Anrao, who had no idea that his plan had been seen through, got up early the next day and had breakfast with the four members of the Du family and Du Desheng.
"Uncle, my friend told me that there is a lava hot spring in City C recently. It is quite famous and is said to be very suitable for elderly people with leg pain to recuperate. Why don't we go there? It's just that the location may be a bit remote and the road is not very good, so it may be a bit tiring if we go there."
When Du Desheng heard Du Anrao's words, he thought of the remote mountain village she mentioned last night. His lover was most likely there!
In this case, not to mention the remote location and the difficult road to walk on, even if it is a steep cliff, I have to support myself and climb up with my old arms and legs!
"It's okay, it's okay. Don't look at me like this now. My uncle suffered more hardships than you. He has seen gravel roads and muddy roads. This little hustle and bustle is nothing to him."
Duan Rao was relieved: "Then let's set off after dinner. My friend will pick us up in City C."
Upon hearing this, the Du family members stopped what they were doing and looked over.
"Your friend will pick you up? Which friend?"
When the little daughter mentioned this yesterday, they thought this so-called friend was just an excuse, but they didn’t expect that there really was such a person. How come they didn’t know when the little daughter made a new friend? !
"It's Mr. Xi." They were going to meet soon, and Du Anrao didn't think there was any need to hide this matter.
"Mr. Xi's grandparents are from City C, and he knows City C quite well. It just so happens that he is visiting his grandparents in City C these two days, so I asked him to help lead the way. Otherwise, I'm afraid that my uncle and I are unfamiliar with the place and may get lost easily."
Father Du and Mother Du looked at each other and asked, "Is that Mr. Xi who came to your birthday party before?"
"right."
Du Desheng really didn't know this. He turned around and looked at the bodyguard leader who was responsible for intelligence gathering. The other party immediately leaned over to Du Desheng's ear and told him about Mr. Xi.
Compared to the few people who were still relatively calm, Du Junyan was clenching his chopsticks so hard that they made a creaking sound. It was this wild man again!
How did he get in touch with An An? Are they familiar with each other? And this old man actually asked their An An to go to C City to soak in the hot springs?! What does he want to do? Is he plotting something bad against their sister?
No, he had to think of a way and not let this bastard's conspiracy succeed!
At this moment, Brother Du has selectively forgotten that Du Anrao just made up an excuse yesterday to trick Du Desheng into going to City C with her, and there was no prior agreement at all.
At that time, Xi Jingyue, who had just got off the plane, suddenly felt his nose itchy and could not help but sneeze loudly, without knowing that he had inexplicably been blamed.
"That's good. It's easier to get things done with acquaintances. You should thank them when you come back."
"I know, mom."
The group finished their breakfast as quickly as possible and were about to set off when they discovered that there was one more person in their car.
"Brother, why are you here too?"
"I'll go with you."
“But the company…”
"I won't fail as long as my parents are here." Du Junyan glanced at Du's father and mother standing outside the car. Last time, this group of people left the company to him alone, and he followed An An to Lao Er's place to eat melons for more than a month, which made him work overtime until late at night every day, and he almost got dark circles under his eyes.
This time he was just accompanying his sister on a long trip, and they might be back the same day. If these two couldn't handle such a small change, their company would have gone bankrupt long ago.
How could Du's father and mother not see the little thoughts of their eldest son, but they were ultimately in the wrong and dared not say anything: "Don't worry about the company, we have our parents watching over it."
After that, he explained to Du Desheng, "After An An came back, her brother and sister always followed her when she went out. This time we went to City C. Although it was close, the boss was still worried, so he thought of going with you guys so that someone could take care of her on the way."
This reason was quite reasonable. Du Desheng smiled and did not object.
Du Yuxi actually wanted to go with them, but the Li family would come to pick her up and take her back to J City today, so she could only regretfully miss this good show of eating melons on the spot.
"Then big brother, please take good care of An An and Uncle Tang, and go early and come back early."
"Um."
The meeting place agreed upon by Duanrao and Xi Jingyue was at the nearest highway intersection to the hot spring village.
Xi Jingyue didn't know in advance that this group of people were not here to take a hot spring bath, but to find and fight with others, so he came alone without bringing anything.
When they arrived at the scene, they found that in addition to Duanrao, her eldest brother, and the relative she mentioned, there were actually seven or eight cars of impressive bodyguards following them.
He was the only one who was not in the situation, just like a lamb that had strayed into a wolf's den. If he was really taken away and sold for money, no one would even know about it.
Xi Jingyue was lost in thought when Duanrao got out of the car and happily came to him. "Mr. Xi, are you here early? Sorry, we are not very familiar with the road here, so we drove slowly and wasted time."
"It's okay, it's okay. I just arrived too." Xi Jingyue said and turned his gaze again to the black-clad bodyguards behind them.
"You said you and a relative wanted to come here to soak in the hot springs. I thought there would be only a few of you, but I didn't expect... so many."
"Oh, you mean these people? They are my great-uncle's bodyguards." Duan Rao said as he leaned close to Xi Jingyue's ear and whispered, "My great-uncle is a big shot. He always makes a big fuss when he goes out. Don't mind it."
Xi Jingyue felt his ears tickled by Duan Anrao's breath, and thought absentmindedly: Oh, a big shot, this might be a big melon!
