"Lanlan..." Seeing that Lan Xiaolan didn't answer, Ren Tingxi called her again.
Lan Xiaolan sat in the passenger seat, looking at the scenery outside the window, thinking about some things in the past.
As she was thinking, she fell asleep. She was so tired after working in the ancient tomb all night last night.
Ren Tingxi looked at Lan Xiaolan who was sleeping beside him. His heart tightened and his chest felt like a huge rock was pressing on it. Every breath he took was very difficult.
Ren Tingxi looked at the dusty face, the gray dust in front of which he had not yet wiped off. Looking at Lan Xiaolan who was exhausted and sleeping, Ren Tingxi felt that she was both pitiful and cute.
It's Golden Week in October, the beginning of autumn. A gentle cool breeze blows, stirring people's endless thoughts.
Ren Tingxi gently closed the car window and adjusted the position of the air conditioner so that the cool breeze would not hit Lan Xiaolan directly.
Then he took out his coat and gently covered Lan Xiaolan with it.
Looking at the sleeping Lan Xiaolan pouting, his strong body slowly approached her. His thin lips trembled slightly and gently touched her cheek, then he sat away contentedly.
Arriving at the hotel 3 kilometers away from the construction site, there was a huge crowd of people standing there, most of them were guests waiting to check in.
It is the National Day Golden Week now, and there are so many tourists traveling that the hotel entrance is crowded.
Lan Xiaolan was awakened by the mixed noises outside. She was severely sleep deprived and hadn't eaten yet, so she felt light-headed, dizzy, and a little painful.
This hotel is actually one of the Ren family's businesses. Ren Tingxi is the second young master of the Ren family. When he came to his own hotel, he went directly to the VIP room.
"Mr. Ren, I'm really sorry. I didn't know you would come today." A beautiful front desk manager came to greet Ren Tingxi in person despite her busy schedule.
Ren Tingxi has his own house in S City. Normally, he would stay at his own home and would not stay in a hotel like this. Of course, he had not made a reservation directly with the front desk before coming.
But meeting Lan Xiaolan today was something he had not expected. They had been separated for 8 years, and although they were already very familiar with each other, it seemed strange to bring her to his home right after they met.
This hotel is very close to the construction site, and Lan Xiaolan is a professional staff member of the Archaeological Institute. It seems more reasonable for Ren Tingxi to bring her to the hotel to stay overnight.
However, he didn't expect that today was the Golden Week holiday, and the hotel was already fully booked. Even if Ren Tingxi was the young master, he couldn't spare any extra rooms.
Lan Xiaolan looked at the hotel manager with an apologetic face. Needless to say, she knew that the hotel rooms were fully booked and there was no place suitable for her to rest.
"However, we also have our own B&B here. We originally wanted to rent it out long-term, but because the price is quite high and the location is quite remote, it has been vacant."
"Mr. Ren, if you don't mind, you can stay over there first. But it's a two-bedroom, one-living room suite, I just don't know..." The lobby manager looked at Ren Tingxi, then at Lan Xiaolan next to him. It was obvious that the young master had brought a girl to get a room. The manager, who had been in the workplace for many years, did have some good eyesight.
"I just wonder if it would be convenient for Mr. Ren and your friend to live together?" asked the lobby manager.
"inconvenient!"
"convenient."
Lan Xiaolan and Ren Tingxi said in unison. Seeing this, the lobby manager was so embarrassed that he broke out in a sweat.
This was the Ren family's hotel. Ren Tingxi was the second son of the Ren family. The manager knew exactly who he should and shouldn't listen to. He then handed the key to the B&B to Ren Tingxi.
Lan Xiaolan grabbed the key and said, "Thank you for taking me here. Thank you very much! But I can go by myself, so I won't bother you."
"Are you the only one in the world who needs a break? I came here from far away for this project," Ren Tingxi grabbed Lan Xiaolan's hand and took the key back from her palm. "Besides, since this is a two-bedroom, one-living room suite, we can each have one and not disturb each other."
"Besides, we'll have to discuss the cross-river bridge construction site and the ancient tomb together in the coming period. I don't have time to run back and forth just to meet you."
What Ren Tingxi said makes sense. The issue of the cross-river bridge construction site does require cooperation between the research institute and the construction party to find a proper solution.
The actual size of the ancient tomb complex, what kind of ancient tomb it is, and what stories it hides are still unknown. She really needs to work with Ren Tingxi in the next few days.
In this case, a two-bedroom, one-living room B&B seemed quite suitable. Lan Xiaolan reluctantly followed Ren Tingxi.
The B&B is in a house at the very end of the alley. It is indeed a remote place, but it is very quiet.
When I opened the door, I saw that the room was clean and there were many green plants around it, which made it look quite fresh and elegant.
Lan Xiaolan was very satisfied with this unique residence.
Lan Xiaolan always carries a change of clothes in her backpack. The nature of their work is quite special and they often have to work in the wild.
It would be very inconvenient to carry large and small bags with them, but once they need to work in the field, they have to rush to the scene.
So Lan Xiaolan has always had the habit of taking all her documents and a change of clothes with her and leaving at any time.
The door closed, and there were only two people left in the space.
