Chapter 63 Let’s Go Travel
The end of semester month has finally come to an end, replaced by the eager anticipation for winter vacation.
For dormitory 306 and its non-staff members, this anticipation has become more concrete and lively, as the long-planned team-building trip is just around the corner.
The day after the exam, the dormitory was filled with the hustle and bustle of packing luggage.
The cold wind of the imperial capital was already swirling outside the window, but when I thought of the destination I was about to visit, this little chill actually added a bit of excitement to the departure.
The final team was truly impressive. They included 306 natives Pei Heng, Chen Shi, Zhou Jingming, and Chen Yu, along with non-staff member Ling Yue, and Huo Xiao, who had become attached to them since the awards ceremony, under the euphemism of protecting His Highness.
Six people dragged suitcases of different sizes and rushed to the airport. Their destination was an island in the south that was famous for its warmth.
Before leaving, Pei Heng called home to report as usual.
In the warm spring-like greenhouse of Pei Garden in the imperial capital.
Jiang Lanyue was leisurely playing with a few furry cats and dogs. When she heard that her son was going on an island trip with his classmates and friends, she smiled and reminded him to be careful.
"Don't forget to bring Xiao Shen back for the New Year."
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Lanyue thought for a moment and said to Wen Desheng, "Xiao Heng and the others are going to the island. Please contact our hotel there and arrange the rooms and itinerary. The most important thing is that the children have a great time."
Wen Desheng immediately bowed in response, his face showing his usual trustworthiness, "Don't worry, Madam. I'll do it right away."
With him here, His Highness and the Lord's travel experience will definitely not be compromised.
Wendsheng was extremely efficient and everything was arranged in a short time.
The snow-white Samoyed, which had been lying obediently beside Jiang Lanyue's legs, suddenly stood up for some reason.
It spat out the toy ball in its mouth, turned around and ran deep into the house.

The air on the island is completely different from that in Shanghai.
As soon as I got off the plane, a moist and warm breeze with a light salty smell blew in my face, dispelling the cold.
Even in winter, you only need a single layer of clothing and a thin jacket. The sun is bright but not scorching, and the climate is pleasant.
The special car sent by the hotel was already waiting at the airport, and took them and their luggage to their destination smoothly.
The hotel faces the sea and its style is a clever fusion of modern and tropical styles. The white building is particularly eye-catching against the backdrop of the blue sea and sky.
Zhou Jingming sighed as he walked into the lobby, "It's no wonder we're so nice to Pei Hengheng. This hotel is so beautiful."
Ling Yue walked to the front desk to check in.
Windseng had obviously thought very carefully and directly booked five luxurious sea view suites on the top floor, and reserved the entire top floor for their use.
The front desk manager greeted us personally and introduced us with a smile, "In addition to the guest rooms, the top floor also features a private open-air garden, an infinity pool, and a private hot spring pool with natural hot springs. You can enjoy it to your heart's content without being disturbed."
After the introduction, a well-dressed waiter pressed the button for the exclusive elevator to the top floor for them and waited respectfully.
It was evening when they arrived, and the setting sun dyed the sea a magnificent orange-red.
Everyone took the elevator up and admired the magnificent sea view that gradually unfolded through the glass curtain wall, feeling a little excited.
We agreed in the elevator to go back to our rooms to rest for a while and then have a barbecue in the open-air garden on the rooftop in the evening.
Zhou Jingming raised his hands and suggested, "Barbecue, we must barbecue! Beer goes perfectly with barbecue!"
Passed unanimously.
Ling Yue and Huo Xiao put down their luggage first, and then went to the open-air garden to survey the environment as usual.
As a secret guard, it is Ling Yue's instinct to detect potential dangers.
The open-air garden is very delicately designed, surrounded by green plants, with soft lighting and all the necessary barbecue equipment. You can also hear the soothing sound of waves crashing on the shore not far away.
Huo Xiao sat down casually on the soft futon and watched Ling Yue meticulously check the fence, power supply and corners.
Huo Xiao looked at Ling Yue's busy back and suddenly spoke, breaking the silence, "Hey, when did you come to His Highness?"
After checking the last corner, Ling Yue walked over to sit down opposite him and said concisely: "Earlier than you."
Huo Xiao raised his eyebrows, with a bit of unwillingness to admit defeat, "Then I recovered my memory much earlier than you."
During a special mission in the army, at the critical moment of life and death, he suddenly awakened to the memories of his past life.
Hearing this, Ling Yue curled the corners of his mouth almost imperceptibly, the curve so slight it was barely noticeable. "You really want to compete?"
They knew each other in their previous life. They were younger than Pei Heng and Shen Shi, and were selected into the royal training camp together.
At that time, both of them were top players and trained hard to compete with each other.
Until one day when His Majesty came to inspect in person, he was impressed by the murderous aura in Huo Xiao that was more suitable for the battlefield. He also heard that he always ranked second in various assessments, so he waved his hand and selected him into the military exercise camp that specializes in training generals.
Because the first place in the training camp is destined to become the future prince's personal guard, which requires absolute loyalty, concealment and protection, rather than charging into the battlefield.
Since then, the two have embarked on different paths, but the friendship they shared when they were young has not been erased.
When they met again at the awards ceremony, Ling Yue was attracted by Huo Xiao's demeanor.
The feeling inside is no less than watching an acquaintance showing off.
Ling Yue has a cold personality, but Huo Xiao is an outgoing and lively person. He is very open-minded and dares to talk about anything.
The two chatted idly, from interesting things in modern times to training in previous lives.
Suddenly, Huo Xiao changed the subject, "Speaking of which... do you know who later became the emperor of Pei State?"
Ling Yue was silent for a moment and shook his head.
Huo Xiao sighed, his tone a bit complicated, "Who made you die so early in your previous life?"
When these words came out, both of them were stunned.
Ling Yue straightened his expression and spoke in an unprecedentedly serious tone, "I am His Highness's personal guard. If His Highness dies, I will never live alone."
This was the principle he had followed throughout his life since the moment he was chosen.
Huo Xiao looked at him with a complicated expression, "Yes, I know."
"So you, a fellow who has no brother in your heart, only left me a letter."
Ling Yue frowned, a rare look of astonishment and confusion on his face.
Ling Yue remembered that he had not yet sent the letter out and had hidden it in his sleeve.
But the situation changed at that time and he did not die in the palace.
He suddenly looked at Huo Xiao and asked, "Did you collect my body?"
Huo Xiao met his gaze and raised his eyebrows, "Of course, I can't just leave you lying dead in the wilderness."
Ling Yue lowered his eyes and did not continue the topic.
