Chapter 9: The Metaphorical Little Lover
In the evening, Xia Shuran took a taxi to the western suburbs, drove for a while, and finally arrived at the foot of the mountain.
But the driver said he couldn't get in.
Xia Shuran opened the window and looked up at the entire mountain.
The most eye-catching thing is the winding mountain road.
On the top of the mountain, you can vaguely see brilliant lights.
It’s so high, could she have walked up there?
"Little sister, I have no choice. Cars with unfamiliar license plates are not allowed in here."
The driver complained in his heart: What's more, it's a taxi. He was afraid of hitting the two convertibles in front of it.
Come to a place where rich people gather late at night.
Well, it seems that students from Kyoto University are no different. Pretty girls are easily led astray.
"Master, please stop here and don't move. I'll go talk to the security booth and they'll let us in."
Xia Shuran said this and prepared to get off the car.
But I was stopped by the master's voice, "Little sister, give me the money first."
"I'll go first..."
"How do I know if you're going to run?"
The driver's attitude changed when we arrived in the western suburbs.
There are too many sports cars here, it's obvious that this is the place for rich people.
At first, he saw Xia Shuran as well-behaved and a student at Peking University, so he had a very good impression of her.
But now, no matter how pure and beautiful she is, she is just a woman who clings to the powerful.
Xia Shuran sighed and transferred the money.
She just got off the bus and walked towards the security booth.
The sound of a car engine starting up was heard behind her.
She turned back suddenly, and the taxi had already sped away.
“…”
Xia Shuran suppressed all negative emotions.
Anger, grievance, uneasiness... were all forcibly suppressed under her calm eyes.
When it explodes, it will only be vented a thousand times.
She walked to the glass window of the security booth and knocked on it, but the security guard inside ignored her.
He was lazily staring at the display screen, which showed the surveillance footage from the highway camera.
His profile is tough and resolute, with a scar at the corner of his eyebrow, dark skin and a burly figure. He must have been a tough guy when he was young.
But at this time, his posture was lazy and it seemed that there was no danger, so he slacked off.
Xia Shuran pursed her lips and said, "Uncle, can you let me go?"
He yawned without even looking at it, "The club has entered it, and the bar will automatically go up.
If you can't get in, it means you're sneaking in. Get away. This is the nth time today. It's annoying."
Xia Shuran: "..."
"Little girl, I advise you not to get involved with these second-generations. They will eat you till there is nothing left of you.
Besides, you haven’t even climbed up yet, so I won’t even give you a car.”
Xia Shuran clenched her fists and said in a calm voice, "Chi Yu asked me to come."
Uncle He was stunned, his expression changed instantly, and his sleepiness disappeared without a trace.
He then turned his head to look at her, the first time he had seen her so far.
He stood up slowly and looked her up and down.
This girl is very beautiful, not in a tacky way.
Her figure surprisingly doesn't match her face, and she's so sexy that it makes your blood boil.
He was a little unsure, as he had never heard that Chi Yu had a lover.
Even if there was, how could Chi Yu let her come on foot?
But this girl is indeed pretty. Even among a group of beauties, she is still outstandingly beautiful.
What if Chi Yu likes pure ones...
"Are you Mr. Chi's?"
He asked tentatively, his tone no longer indifferent, and even had some respect.
He is indeed a shrewd person working under a rich man.
Uncle He thought to himself that he was in charge of the construction of this mountain.
His brother used to be Mr. Chi's personal bodyguard, and the two brothers were deeply trusted by the Chi family.
Personal safety and development interests have long been deeply bound to the Chi family.
This entire mountain construction and the sports car club are a cover.
It’s just that the construction company has some money that needs to be “bridged”.
Chi Yu was the overall person in charge of this project, which meant that Director Chi had completely handed the construction company over to him.
The construction company is the core asset of Chijia Assets and can be said to be the most important source.
It was only a matter of time before Chi Yu took over all of the Chi family's assets. If she was really his lover, she must not be offended.
Xia Shuran didn't know how to answer. She and Chi Yu were strangers who had just met once.
Seeing her silence, Uncle He said, "You can contact Mr. Chi. I will open the door immediately if he says a word."
Xia Shuran opened her phone and saw Chi Yu's chat box.
She subconsciously touched the knife in her bag and seemed to find some sense of security.
She pretended to be calm and typed, then sent it.
I reached the foot of the mountain, but couldn’t get in.
One second, two seconds, one minute... no reply.
Under Uncle He's gaze, Xia Shuran felt a little embarrassed. After hesitating for a moment, she clicked on the voice call.
The waiting time was extremely painful. The beeping sound of the phone coincided with her gradually accelerating heartbeat.
A large hand covered with water droplets picked up the phone, and the white light from the screen illuminated his delicate eyebrows.
He lowered his eyes, with the corners of his eyes slightly raised.
When Xia Shuran heard the call was picked up, she held her breath for a moment.
Then she heard the voice on the other end, a casual tone, "Hello?"
The voice was tired and low-pitched, and I could seem to hear the grainy sound in it through the phone.
Xia Shuran was silent for a long time.
He seemed to chuckle, "Why don't you speak?"
Not a question.
It is a low, slow and leisurely tone, with a high and easy attitude.
Xia Shuran's heart trembled, and she regained her sanity in an instant. She tried to speak calmly, "I'm here, but I can't get in."
He said slowly, "Really?"
Almost the same tone as the previous sentence.
Xia Shuran hated it because it made her feel like she was being controlled.
She could no longer control her voice and was on the verge of collapse. "What on earth do you want?"
Uncle He was stunned for a moment. He dared to speak to Chi Yu like this. It seemed that he was really her lover.
They must have had a quarrel. Chi Yu is quite cruel to women. Why let her go up by herself?
