Lin Xiao drove his dark blue Maserati, listening to music, speeding along the national highway.
He felt both relieved and somewhat lost.
Besides the 100,000 yuan pocket money his mother gave him, he also had 35 million yuan in savings in his own bank account.
In other words, if he can let go of it, he can find any place to live in seclusion and live a carefree life.
But he was somewhat confused, wondering if he really had to give up everything from the Feng family, including his parents.
He felt uncomfortable living under the same roof as Feng Qi.
But he couldn't get rid of it unless he moved out, but that wouldn't free him from his interactions with Feng Qi.
Lin Xiao was also troubled by the seven women in Jiangcheng.
They all wanted him, but he couldn't firmly choose any of them because he couldn't yet feel love for them.
For a long time, he has been experiencing intense inner conflict, torn between physical desires and a deep longing for true love. He doesn't know whether he should indulge or continue to persevere.
Especially after learning that his biological father and adoptive mother had an affair, Lin Xiao felt a deep-seated resistance to becoming like his father.
Lin Xiao's idea was to first tour the beautiful landscapes of his motherland. He went to Huangshan first, drove his car to the mountainside, to the South Heaven Gate, and then climbed up by himself.
He booked a hotel online; there are hotels on the mountaintop.
Lin Xiao carried a travel bag on his back, held a hiking stick in his hand, listened to music, and climbed up the mountain with ease.
There were two girls walking together ahead of me. They looked to be very attractive from behind, and they were chatting and laughing as they walked.
Lin Xiao overtook them and walked ahead.
The girl with the low ponytail was about 1.65 meters tall, with fair skin and a delicate, pretty appearance. She noticed Lin Xiao, and her heart skipped a beat.
The girl with her hair in a bun was about 1.7 meters tall, with delicate features and a gentle yet unrestrained temperament. She also saw Lin Xiao, but did not feel any attraction to him.
The girl with the ponytail unconsciously quickened her pace, and the two of them maintained a distance of about ten meters from Lin Xiao.
Upon reaching the mountaintop, Lin Xiao checked into the hotel, where the two girls also stayed with him.
Lin Xiao put his luggage in the room and went to find a place to eat.
There weren't many restaurants to choose from on the mountaintop, so Lin Xiao ordered Huangshan hairy tofu, stewed chicken with stone ear fungus, and Huangshan sesame seed cakes. While waiting for the food, two girls came in.
Lin Xiao glanced at them, then looked away and continued looking at his phone.
The girl with the ponytail smiled shyly, and she and her companion chose a window seat. The two looked at the menu and discussed what they wanted to order.
Lin Xiao didn't take it to heart. He focused on eating as soon as the dishes were served, even though the taste of the dishes was just average.
Half an hour later, Lin Xiao finished eating, paid the bill, and walked out of the restaurant.
It was already dusk when Lin Xiao strolled around and stood under a welcoming pine tree, admiring the sea of clouds shrouded in mist on the mountaintop and the magnificent sunset in the distance.
The girl with the ponytail walked over.
She stood there for a moment, then struck up a conversation, saying, "Excuse me, could you please take a picture of me?"
Lin Xiao paused for a moment, then turned to look at her, asking curiously, "Where are your companions?"
The girl smiled shyly, thinking to herself, "So he noticed me too." She wasn't feeling well and went back to her room to rest.
Lin Xiao nodded slightly, took the girl's phone, squatted down, and took a picture of her.
The girl exclaimed in delight, "Wow! You took such a great picture! Shall I take one for you too? The scenery here is so beautiful."
Lin Xiao smiled and politely declined, "No need, thank you."
The girl didn't force him, but she didn't leave either; instead, she continued talking to herself.
She and her companion came from Shanghai for tourism. They took a day off on Friday, went back on Saturday night, and had to go to work on Monday.
She is a counselor at a university, and her companion is a flight attendant.
Lin Xiao listened calmly without asking any questions. He just felt a little strange. They were complete strangers, so why was she telling him so much information? It seemed a bit like she was being too forward with someone she barely knew.
After staying for a while, Lin Xiao decided to go back to his room to change into his hot spring clothes, so he said goodbye briefly.
The girl seemed interested. "I also want to go to a hot spring. Shall we go together? I'm a little afraid of the dark if I go alone."
Lin Xiaojian frowned slightly. "You should ask your companion to accompany you. Excuse me."
The girl was very disappointed and bit her lip, saying, "She's on her period and can't go to the hot spring."
Lin Xiao thought for a moment and then nodded, saying, "See you at the entrance later."
The girl's eyes lit up immediately, "Okay!"
Before long, the two changed into their hot spring clothes, put on jackets over them, and headed to the hot spring area together.
There weren't many people soaking in the hot springs at this time. Lin Xiao chose a mugwort hot spring, and the girl chose the same one as him.
The girl followed Lin Xiao excitedly, saying, "This is my first time soaking in a hot spring! I can't wait!"
Lin Xiao didn't mention that it was also his first time soaking in a hot spring; he just felt it was getting weirder and weirder.
Upon reaching the spring, Lin Xiao took off his coat, revealing his fair and muscular physique and thin abdominal muscles, and sat down in the spring.
The girl was wearing a cropped, fuchsia swimsuit, showing off her slim waist and ample bosom.
Lin Xiao only glanced at the girl's figure briefly before lowering his eyes and no longer looking at her.
The girl stared at Lin Xiao's abs, her face flushed. After a moment, she said softly, "You have such a great body! Do you work out often?"
Lin Xiaomo's dark eyes flickered, and he gave a faint "hmm," "I have a habit of running."
"Um...can I touch your abs?"
Lin Xiao looked puzzled. Are women these days so open-minded?
"I didn't mean anything by it, I just think your abs are really nice." The girl blushed to the roots of her neck, but her eyes were fixed on Lin Xiao's upper body.
Lin Xiao raised his eyes, looked at the girl, and made a general judgment in his mind.
He's not stupid; once he gives in, what will happen next seems predictable.
Is this the legendary romantic encounter?
"Do I look like some kind of casual man?" Lin Xiao asked in a low voice.
The girl quickly said, "No, no! You seem like a very clean person. I didn't mean anything by it, please don't misunderstand me."
Lin Xiao pursed his lips, paused for a moment, and then asked, "Don't you have a boyfriend?"
The girl was silent for a moment, then splashed some hot water on her arm before saying, "I don't have a boyfriend."
Lin Xiao wasn't entirely convinced.
After soaking in the hot spring, Lin Xiao massaged his feet for a while before going straight back to the hotel to sleep.
After taking a shower, Lin Xiao changed into his pajamas. Hearing a knock on the door, he opened it and saw the girl he had been soaking in the hot spring with.
The girl was wearing a white nightgown, her slightly damp hair was loose, and she went straight in when he opened the door.
Lin Xiao didn't close the door and said in a deep voice, "What are you doing here?"
The girl pursed her lips, blushed, and said with a coquettish smile, "I came to play with you."
"A man and a woman alone together, it's so late, and I don't even know you. Please leave," Lin Xiao said in a deep voice.
