It took An Nuannuan a while to come back to her senses. She stood up from the wall and placed the wind chime in Yan Qing's hand. "I saw it in Chinatown. Qian Chong liked the wind chime, so I bought it."
Yan Qing lowered her head and glanced, frowning suspiciously, "I've walked around almost the entire Chinatown, but I haven't seen any shops selling wind chimes..."
She took another closer look. "This is a pendant wind chime from the Life brand. The price... Nuannuan, did you buy it? Are there such big brands in Chinatown?"
Even the brooch she bought for Gu Yan was from a niche brand. Chinatown didn't have any international brands; it was full of niche goods.
An Nuannuan was distracted for a moment after hearing her words. After a long moment, she looked up and smiled softly, "Maybe one of my classmates who's traveling with me likes Qian Chong, so I bought it specifically to please her. How could I possibly afford such an expensive item? My dad's salary for several years wouldn't even cover the balance."
"I saw it was raining heavily, so I came to see if you guys had come back and if you were wet. When I walked into the corridor, I saw a boy put a wind chime by the door. I was curious, so I picked it up and took a look."
An Nuannuan said as she took out three packets of Isatis root from her pocket. "I brought some Isatis root with me when I came here. If you get caught in the rain, remember to make some and drink it before going to bed."
Yan Qing took it and nodded.
But she always felt that something was wrong with An Nuannuan, but she couldn't put her finger on it.
**
An Nuannuan left the door of room 1509, but did not go to her own room, nor did she go to Tan Kai's private room.
The night on El Island is supposed to be beautiful, but it rained heavily tonight.
At this moment, the sound of thunder and rain outside the window covers all other sounds, and the chaotic blowing and beating also makes people's thoughts very confused.
There is a coffee shop on the 20th floor of the hotel. An Nuannuan went there and found a relatively secluded spot to sit down.
She ordered a glass of warm water.
The rain got heavier, and the raindrops hit the glass windows, breaking up the night view outside.
"Can I sit here, Miss An?"
An Nuannuan didn't turn around when she heard the voice. She knew who it was. She paused for a few seconds before turning around and looking up at Qianxue in front of her. She nodded and said, "Please sit anywhere."
The waiter came over, Qianxue ordered a mocha, and then sat opposite An Nuannuan.
She put her bag on the corner of the sofa and wiped her hands with a tissue on the table. "It's raining so hard outside. I just got out of the car and walked into the hotel with an umbrella, and my clothes are soaked with rain." As she spoke, she looked up at An Nuannuan leisurely, "If anyone doesn't use an umbrella, they will definitely catch a cold."
Compared to Qianxue's calmness, An Nuannuan's expression looked very unhappy.
He looked pale and bloodless, and seemed a little listless.
Qianxue continued, "I ran into Tan Kai on South Chinatown two hours ago. He greeted me and said he was buying wind chimes. I was wondering if there seemed to be no wind chimes for sale on the entire Chinatown street."
"I've been to El Island dozens of times since I was a child. The Qian family also has a holiday villa here, so I'm quite familiar with the things here. So I kindly reminded him that there are no wind chimes for sale here, and even if there are, they are all substandard."
"Tan Kai is quite generous. I mentioned the Life brand wind chime, and he actually placed an order. It cost nearly two million yuan for a crystal wind chime, and he maxed out five or six of his bank cards. Life's delivery person is very efficient. The wind chime should be here by now, right?"
