Chapter 86 Xia Du has grown so much since childhood
"There aren't any important meetings today. Xiao Mushen and Wu Yang are here; they can handle it. Would you like to go out for a walk?"
Yan Lingyu stopped all his work and asked An Shixia for her opinion.
He doesn't usually suggest going out for a walk, but once he does, it means he probably already has plans.
An Shixia looked at her with bright eyes: "Where to?"
“The Zheng family has developed a hot spring resort. Zheng Yiyuan sent me an invitation. If you want to go, I’ll have him make the preparations.”
The Zheng family held a high position in the capital, ranking first among families other than the An and Yan families.
Zheng Yiyuan is the youngest son of the eldest branch of the Zheng family. He is about the same age as Yan Lingyu. When they were young, they all attended the same school.
However, his grades were too poor, so he went abroad for high school. An Shixia still kept in touch with him occasionally, but they lost contact after he went to university.
"Okay, can I bring Tongtong along?"
An Shixia wanted to have some fun before going to work.
"I'll take you there first, and then we'll take her after Xiao Mushen and Wu Yang finish their business, okay?"
"Uh-huh."
Since they all knew each other, An Shixia wasn't worried. After sending a text message to Shen Tongtong, she got into Yan Lingyu's car.
The hot spring resort was located in a somewhat remote area, halfway up the mountain. Yan Lingyu stopped his car at the foot of the mountain.
You can hike to the mountainside, take a cable car, or even use an aerial elevator.
Let's take the cable car.
The surrounding scenery was beautiful, and you could see everything from the cable car. An Shixia liked it very much, and her tone was filled with excitement.
Yan Lingyu naturally wouldn't refuse her.
She chose a cable car that could accommodate two people; compared to an elevator, the cable car was slower.
Some particularly tall trees occasionally brush against the edge of the cable car.
"Brother Yu, that leaf is so pretty."
An Shixia looked up and saw a tree with orange and green leaves, and shouted to Yan Lingyu to look quickly.
Yan Lingyu followed her gaze and saw that the leaves of that tree were different colors from top to bottom, which reminded him of an ancient poem.
It is the time when oranges are yellow and tangerines are green.
"nice."
Seeing that An Shixia liked it, Yan Lingyu went along with her, but he didn't have time to appreciate the scenery; Xiaxia herself was the most beautiful scenery.
Xiaxia looked at the scenery, and he looked at Xiaxia. Hmm, it was beautiful.
Before Yan Lingyu arrived, he sent a message to Zheng Yiyuan. As soon as they got off the cable car, Zheng Yiyuan was already waiting for them at the entrance of the resort.
"Brother Yu, it was really not easy to get you here."
Zheng Yiyuan had a beautiful woman in his arms, and his tone was somewhat nonchalant.
He kept looking at Yan Lingyu, but his gaze inadvertently swept over An Shixia beside him, and he whistled.
"Brother Yu, aren't you supposed to be averse to women? Who's this lady next to you? Why don't you introduce her to me?"
He showed no regard for the woman he was holding in his arms, and dared to flirt with other people right in front of her.
Yan Lingyu looked at him with murderous intent, and he immediately put his hands in a begging gesture: "Don't be angry, I was just joking. Although I've been through a lot of women, I won't steal your brother's man."
An Shixia couldn't help but laugh at his glib tongue.
This kid has always been like this since he was a child. He likes to be surrounded by girls. You can't say he's a bad guy. He's had many girlfriends, but he never does anything he shouldn't.
Moreover, he was the one who initiated the breakup, and the breakup fee was enough to save the other person decades of hard work.
"Zheng Yiyuan, are you asking for a beating again?"
An Shixia retorted to him in the same tone she used to use.
Zheng Yiyuan's eyes widened instantly, and he looked at An Shixia incredulously several times.
"Xiaoxia, you've grown so much. No, no, I'm only a year older than you, so you should be that big by now. What I mean is that girls change a lot as they grow up."
After he finished speaking, he clicked his tongue twice and said, "No wonder Brother Yu suddenly said he wanted to come; it turns out it was because of you."
Yan Lingyu kicked him: "Speak properly."
Zheng Yiyuan asked the woman next to him to leave first before regaining his serious demeanor.
"Wasn't I speaking properly? Oh, right, Zhou Xuerou is here too."
Yan Lingyu remained indifferent: "What does her presence have to do with me? Lead the way."
Zheng Yiyuan curled his lip, thinking, "He really is a cold and ruthless person."
Zhou Xuerou had been pursuing him for so long, yet she didn't show the slightest emotional fluctuation.
That's true, he's been like this since he was a child. Apart from An Shixia, no one can get close to him.
"I've reserved the largest private room for you. You'll definitely thank me when you go in."
He spoke as he led the way.
An Shixia asked curiously, "How big is your hot spring?"
Zheng Yiyuan said with some pride, "It's the biggest in Beijing, with over a hundred private rooms alone. We're here, want to go in and take a look?"
Zheng Yiyuan opened the door to the private room and gestured for him to enter.
An Shixia was the first to go in and looked around.
The private rooms are divided into three areas: a hot spring area, a rest area, and a fitting room.
Upon entering, there was no sweltering heat. Zheng Yiyuan said smugly, "Although it's not yet the Great Heat season, I've already equipped this place with a temperature control system. Coming to a hot spring is all about enjoyment."
He did a really good job at that, and Yan Lingyu even gave him a look of praise: "I thought you were only good at playing games."
Zheng Yiyuan studied design abroad in recent years, which has nothing to do with finance.
In his words, since the family business is not going to be handed over to him anyway, he can be happy as long as he is happy. Even if the sky falls, his older brothers will still be there to support him.
"Although my grades aren't good, I do have a business mind, so don't underestimate me."
As Zheng Yiyuan spoke, he took out two cards: "These are for you. This private room was specially reserved for you. Come whenever you want."
An Shixia accepted it without hesitation: "Then thank you, Brother Yiyuan."
Zheng Yiyuan was extremely surprised to hear An Shixia call him "brother" for so long: "I thought you weren't going to acknowledge me as your brother anymore. You haven't sent me a single message in the past few years."
An Shixia was a little embarrassed: "It wasn't intentional. I haven't contacted anyone in the past few years."
Zheng Yiyuan snorted: "Where's Yan Lingyu? You must have contacted him. In the end, you've just forgotten about me."
An Shixia glanced at Yan Lingyu discreetly, but didn't say anything, as if she had done something wrong.
"No way? Xiao Xia, what have you been doing these past few years?"
Zheng Yiyuan had only recently returned from abroad. Although he usually kept in touch with Yan Lingyu, he had never heard him mention these things.
An Shixia sighed: "It's just... I got set up, and in a moment of impulsiveness, I chased after that scumbag."
"Chasing after a jerk? How could you be so foolish? You might as well chase after me..." Zheng Yiyuan blurted out, not understanding, but upon seeing Yan Lingyu, he immediately changed his words, "Where's Brother Yu!"
He had barely finished speaking when there was a knock on the door of the private room, and a gentle female voice came from outside: "Zheng Yiyuan, are you here?"
Zheng Yiyuan's expression changed, and he looked at Yan Lingyu apologetically: "I don't know why she came here. I didn't tell her."
