Chapter 27 What a coincidence! Lu Tinghe is also in Wumang Mountain. What a coincidence...
Wumang Mountain is located in the remote mountainous area of City A. It has beautiful mountains and clear waters and superior natural scenery, but due to its remote location, it has always been unknown.
A few years ago, I don’t know which big boss discovered this golden land, built bridges and roads, and constructed a resort hotel, turning it into a well-known tourist attraction in the country.
The bus drove slowly and steadily on the mountain road, shaking occasionally.
College students are generally of high quality. They chat, watch TV series and play games with their heads down, wearing headphones but not listening out loud. Only occasional low voices of conversation can be heard.
There was an unpleasant smell of gasoline emanating from the car. Shi Shang was sitting by the window in the middle back row. When the bus slowly began to climb the hill, the smell rushed into his nostrils.
He stared at his phone for a while, feeling dizzy and nauseous, so he opened the window a little to get some fresh air.
The cold mountain breeze blew across his face, and Shi Shang shuddered and suddenly woke up.
It is late autumn, and the red maple trees all over the mountain have dyed the forest into a fiery red. The layers of forest look like burning flames from a distance, which further sets off the clear green streams in the canyon.
This is a scenery that cannot be seen in hell. Shi Shang's eyes became brighter and brighter. She couldn't help but take out her mobile phone, turned on the camera and took several pictures in succession.
He opened the WeChat chat interface and clicked on Lin Zhuoran's window to send all.
Before Lin Zhuoran replied, he clicked on Lu Tinghe's profile picture again, picked and chose, and selected the photo he was most satisfied with and sent it to him.
[ss: So beautiful!] [Starry eyes] [Starry eyes]
The internet speed in the mountains is not very good, and the message took several rounds before it was sent.
They have three days for this extracurricular practice. After completing the sketching assignments, they can move freely around.
Shi Shang estimated that the last time he saw Lu Tinghe was yesterday. They met by chance in the school library, but they parted after just a few words. At most, he had a half-full meal.
There was no other way to eat, so to be on the safe side, he had to finish his homework tonight at the latest, rush back to school tomorrow morning, and then find a chance to meet Lu Tinghe and take the opportunity to eat a few bites.
Otherwise, what if he gets hungry during the meal and changes into his true form, becoming devilish and scaring his classmates?
It took a while for the message to pop up on the phone.
[He: Is Shang Shang in Wumang Mountain?]
[Touch the kitten's head.jpg]
When Shi Shang clicked on it, she saw an emoticon package from the same series sent to her.
[Kitten spinning.jpg]
[ss: Well, our sketching base is arranged here. The scenery is so beautiful. I have never seen it before. I really hope that you can see it too.]
Just as the message was sent, the bus arrived at its destination halfway up the mountain, bumped twice, and stopped with a whoosh.
The classmate in the front seat took off his headphones, glanced slowly out the window, and was immediately blinded by the light.
"Holy crap! Are you sure the driver didn't take the wrong road? Our college has spent a fortune this time. This kind of hotel only costs 500 per person for food and lodging?"
Someone chimed in, "How could the school leaders be so kind? Didn't you see the message in the grade group chat? We were originally staying in a guesthouse. But it turns out the hotel developer is an alumnus of University A. When they learned we were here to sketch, they gave us a special discount."
"Oh my goodness, they're so rich! I need more alumni like them!"
In front of you stands a huge white building, which is pure white in color. The walls are decorated with gilded carvings, which makes it bright, brilliant and magnificent.
The bus stopped in front of the fountain on the left. Several water jets rose and fell regularly, and water splashed from the highest point, reflecting brilliant colors under the light.
Passing the fountain is the main entrance of the hotel. Marble columns stand on both sides, and you can vaguely see the carved decorations on the dome inside, showing the luxurious style.
The students in the car packed up their belongings and got out one after another, sighs coming from all directions.
Shi Shang was also amazed in her heart. Sure enough, there are living beings everywhere who are not short of money.
This place is almost like the devil's palace.
He estimated in his mind that based on the current part-time salary, he would need to work for hundreds of years to be able to afford a small piece of land here.
Well, luckily he is a succubus who doesn't need a house :)
[ss: We're here. The place we're staying is so beautiful, like a palace. I'll take pictures of you later.] [Happy] [Happy]
After sending the message, Shi Shang put the phone back in her pocket and prepared to get off the bus to get her luggage.
The luggage was all stuffed into the luggage compartment under the bus. Shi Shang went there early this morning and placed the snakeskin bag containing the things in the innermost part.
After all the suitcases piled in front of him were moved away, he bent down, leaned half of his body into the luggage compartment, stretched out his arms, and tried hard to fish it out.
The classmate next to him saw it and bumped the snakeskin bag with his suitcase. The bulging bag tilted and the handle fell smoothly into Shi Shang's hand.
Shi Shang pulled out the luggage bag and gave him a grateful smile: "Thank you, classmate."
The boy has a delicate appearance and a clean temperament. His eyes, illuminated by the sunlight, are as black and clear as if they had been washed with water.
So cute! Who is he? Is he really in their class? Why doesn't he have any impression of him at all?
The man stood there in a daze for two seconds. After a while, two belated blushes appeared on his face. He waved his hands hurriedly, his voice stammering, "No, no need."
He continued, "My name is Li Hengshu, I'm 18 years old, 1.78 meters tall, I'm interested in Chinese painting and sketching, and my favorite is Rodin's sculptures..."
Shi Shang blinked, not understanding why he started saying this, and repeated, "Thank you, Li Hengshu."
Li Hengshu grinned and suddenly laughed foolishly twice.
Shi Shang:?
What a weird smile.
Shi Shang glanced at him warily, curled her lips at him quickly, picked up the snakeskin bag and walked away quickly.
Li Hengshu hurriedly caught up with his suitcase.
He looked at Shi Shang in front of him, who was lifting the bulging snakeskin bag with one hand with ease and steady steps.
The words "Or I'll help you" were stuck in my throat and I couldn't say them.
He took two more steps forward, and before he could figure out how to start, he heard a burst of exclamations from the crowd in front of him.
Shi Shang just walked to the steps and looked up reflexively.
Several figures in suits and ties appeared in front of the magnificent gate.
The leading man was tall, walking at a leisurely pace, dressed in a formal dark blue three-piece suit. His height, long legs, and handsome features made the couture suit look even more expensive.
The thin-soled leather shoes made a slight sound when stepping on the smooth marble floor, as if they were stepping directly on the catwalk.
Eh?!
Lu Tinghe?
Shi Shang's eyes widened in surprise.
Lu Tinghe calmly glanced at the crowd, nodded slightly, with a perfect smile on his face, and the aura of a superior was naturally revealed.
When he saw Shi Shang, his eyes curved slightly, revealing a genuine smile that went beyond business.
Shi Shang also curled her eyebrows and waved slightly as a greeting to him.
At the same time, Shi Shang's mobile phone finally received the belated message.
[I see.] [Smile] [Smile]
The teacher in charge hurriedly invited everyone into the hotel, and then went over to greet Lu Tinghe and his group warmly.
A young man in a suit and gold-rimmed glasses walked out of the crowd. He looked gentle and refined.
He pushed up his glasses and gave everyone a gentle smile.
"Hello everyone, I'm Jiang Ze, President Lu's assistant, and I'm in charge of receiving you this time. Your door card is over here, please follow me."
He led everyone into the magnificent hotel lobby, and waiters in tuxedos came up one after another and took the luggage from their hands.
I could hear my classmates chatting enthusiastically. Someone's eyes lit up, and he covered his mouth and exclaimed, "So this resort hotel is owned by the Lu family. It's not an alumnus, it's a senior!"
Her companion was equally excited: "I've always wanted to vacation here, but it's too expensive. The cheapest price in the off-season is over a thousand."
"I didn't believe the rumor when it was shared in the group chat. I never thought we'd get lucky!"
"Master Lu is so powerful that being his schoolmate means you can stay in a five-star hotel. Wouldn't being his friend be heavenly?"
Shi Shang pricked up her ears and listened, thinking silently, that’s not the case.
But it's really a blessing to be his friend.
Lu Tinghe is also in Wumang Mountain, what a coincidence.
Shi Shang was delighted. This way, all she had to do was find an opportunity to meet him and take a few puffs, and she wouldn't have to go back to school early.
The line moved quickly. Those who had received door cards took the elevator next to them to go upstairs, and it was Shi Shang's turn in a short while.
He didn't know if it was his illusion, but Assistant Jiang seemed to smile lightly when handing him the door card.
How should I describe that smile? It was friendly and kind, but also a little curious.
strangeness……
She doesn't even know him, so why would she smile at him like that?
Shi Shang shook her head, cleared this strange thought from her mind, and stepped into the elevator.
His room happened to be number 666, which was a very auspicious number for a succubus.
He was on the sixth floor, higher than most of his classmates. When the elevator doors opened, he was the only one who stepped out. Shi Shang looked around and saw only a few rooms were occupied.
Shi Shang swiped the room card and entered. The room was spacious, bright, clean and tidy. There were two beds placed side by side, and his luggage bag was placed on the edge of the bed.
Opposite the door is a huge floor-to-ceiling window, and the transparent window glass reflects the red maple leaves all over the mountain.
Shi Shang screamed and ran over to look outside. The sixth floor had a wide view and the quiet scenery of the mountains and forests was in full view. If she stood on tiptoe, she could vaguely see the green shadow of the lake on the top of the mountain.
So beautiful! Shi Shang’s eyes seemed to have been washed, so bright and watery.
Before I could enjoy it enough, there were two soft knocks on the door.
"Here he comes." Thinking that a classmate had something to do, he quickly ran to open the door, only to see an unexpected visitor.
"Shang Shang," Lu Tinghe stood at the door, looking down with a slight smile. The young man had changed into casual clothes, and his powerful aura had completely faded.
The elegant lily of the valley scent on her body drifted silently into the room, weaving a fine net around Shi Shang.
"Senior Lu?" Shi Shang raised the corners of her lips beautifully and quickly stepped back to make room for Lu Tinghe to enter.
His eyes were moist and charming, as if he had just exercised. His face was a little red, his forehead was moist, and a thin layer of sweat was oozing from his tender white neck which was bitten by the thin sweater.
"Is it okay?" Lu Tinghe narrowed his eyes slightly, and calmly withdrew his gaze, but had no intention of going in.
He curled his lips slightly and asked politely, "Will it disturb you, your friend..."
"No," Shi Shang shook her head and explained obediently, "Lin Zhuoran is sick and didn't come. I'm staying alone tonight."
"Oh, I see." Lu Tinghe's glasses flashed, and a hint of ambiguous darkness passed through his eyes.
The two sat down on the sofa in front of the window. Shi Shang asked curiously, "Senior, why are you here? Do you have a job?"
Lu Tinghe: "I came here for an inspection yesterday and just finished. I heard that the hotel was going to receive a group of A students from university, so I stopped by to take a look. I didn't expect it was your major."
Shi Shang smiled sweetly: "I didn't expect that either."
He was really happy. Lin Zhuoran didn't come, and he didn't even have anyone to talk to. He planned to leave after finishing his homework.
Now that Lu Tinghe is here, he not only doesn’t have to worry about food, but he also has a good friend to chat with.
The two sat and chatted for a while.
It was almost noon when Lu Tinghe glanced at the time. "Want to eat something? The hotel's pastry chef is very skilled. Would you like to try it?"
When Shi Shang heard what he said, her eyes suddenly turned into stars, and she suddenly felt a little restless: "Okay, let's go now."
The two walked out of the door, Shi Shang walked straight in the direction they came from, but Lu Tinghe gestured to the other side and said gently, "Hurry up this way."
Shi Shang didn't suspect anything and followed Lu Tinghe obediently.
The restaurant is on the second floor. The crystal chandeliers overhead are dazzling, and the pianist plays melodious music that flows quietly in the hall.
Shi Shang was attracted by the puppet decorations on the display stand and did not notice that it was lunchtime and the restaurant, which should have been bustling, had only a few people.
Shi Shang's eyes were carefully tracing the puppet's costume. At this moment, someone suddenly patted his shoulder from behind.
He turned his head and saw the man raised his eyebrows and spoke in a deliberately drawn-out tone: "Hello, Xiao Shichang, long time no see, do you still remember me?"
Liu Yu was wearing a floral shirt with the collar buttons deliberately unbuttoned. Even though he was indoors, he still had a pair of sunglasses on his nose.
Shi Shang looked at him and said softly, "Senior Liu, you're here too."
Liu Yu crossed her arms and curled her lips. "I finally have some free time, so of course I have to take a vacation and soothe my miserable soul that's been tortured by work."
He greeted Shi Shang with a smile, ignoring the sudden cold gaze from the person next to him.
