Was Chapter 70 good?
The car wound its way through a series of roads to reach the underground parking garage of the hotel within the resort. Dan Anwen had booked the presidential suite well in advance.
"Little girl, you'll stay in the room next to mine. You two can choose the room opposite each other." After Dan Anwen finished speaking, he took the girl's luggage into the room, and the girl followed him into the room.
Dan Si was stunned by this scene. Who would have thought that his usually aloof and cold uncle would do something so thoughtful?
Dan Si stood there stunned, silently placing his right palm on Dan Si's left arm and gently pinching it; it hurt.
Dan Shu, standing to the side, looked like he was making a fuss over nothing, saying that such a scene would happen again sooner or later, and maybe then the two of them would be sharing the same bag.
Seeing that Dan Si was still standing there dumbfounded, Dan Shu didn't bother with him and picked a room that looked alright.
After packing their luggage, Hang Yan and Shen Jiyang also came to find Dan Anwen.
"Little friend, these are Hang Yan and Shen Jiyang. Just call them uncles," Dan Anwen introduced casually.
Gu Zhaodi nodded obediently and greeted in a sweet voice, "Hello, Uncle Hang and Uncle Chen."
Hang Yan nodded gently. "Hello, Zhao Zhao."
"Calling me 'uncle' sounds too old-fashioned. Just call me 'brother' instead." Shen Jiyang joked as if no one else was around, his alluring peach blossom eyes darting around.
The girl was a little surprised by his behavior and looked at him in shock.
Dan Anwen's face darkened instantly, and he stared intently at the amorous and dissolute Shen Jiyang.
Seeing that things were going wrong, Hang Yan quickly said, "Fourth brother, are you lowering your seniority? Do you want to call the third brother 'uncle'?"
As he spoke, Hang Yan gave Shen Jiyang a look, signaling him to behave himself. Didn't he see that the third brother's expression was off?
Upon receiving the message, Shen Jiyang secretly glanced at Dan Anwen. Hmm, his face was almost as black as the bottom of a pot.
"I was just joking," Shen Jiyang said with an embarrassed smile. "Just call me Uncle, Uncle."
Okay, Shen Jiyang admitted that he was testing Lao San's attitude towards Zhao Zhao.
It seems the third brother has fallen very deep into trouble. His reaction just now was almost subconscious; he probably didn't even realize it himself.
"Let's go, I've made a reservation at the restaurant." Hang Yan called to Dan Si and Dan Shu, who had been in the room earlier.
"Why didn't Uncle Xiao come?" Dan Shu glanced at Hang Yan and Shen Jiyang.
Shen Jiyang smiled like a fox, "You can't get in touch with your Uncle Xiao, so don't worry about him."
After Dan Shu's last immediate family member passed away a few years ago, he was taken to the Dan family.
At that time, Xiao Han also happened to be staying at Danyuan because of his mission. No one knows what happened between the two of them.
However, Shen Jiyang sensed that the relationship between the two was not simple, especially Dan Shu's attitude towards Xiao Han, which had already surpassed the feelings a niece had for her uncle.
Xiao Han, who works in the military, is basically out of contact; it's normal for him to be unreachable nine times out of ten.
Dan Shu's delicate eyebrows furrowed almost imperceptibly. She was a little worried about Xiao Han's condition. Usually, if she couldn't contact him, it meant he was on a mission. She hoped he wouldn't get hurt.
"Who is Uncle Xiao?" The girl overheard their conversation and asked the man next to her who was holding Guoguo's leash.
Dan Anwen's expression remained calm, his emotions completely unwavering. "He's your military training instructor."
Gu Zhaodi was completely dumbfounded and asked what to do if Uncle Dan's brother was an instructor who had been trained to walk with the same leg movements as her.
The girl blinked. "Uncle Dan, the chances of me seeing Uncle Xiao are probably slim, right?"
Seeing the girl's resistance to seeing Xiao Han, Dan Anwen was suspicious. Was there something between the two of them that she didn't know about?
"You don't want to see him?" The man looked down at the girl's expression.
The girl tapped her fingers together. "What if I said I made him walk with the same leg style during military training?"
Dan Anwen froze on the spot, staring at the girl with an unreadable expression.
Shen Jiyang clearly heard their conversation and reacted extremely strongly, his shocked tone tinged with a hint of schadenfreude, "You've turned Xiao Han into someone who walks with the same leg movements as others?"
One sentence drew a crowd of people around, their eyes gleaming with gossip.
If Dan Anwen is a cool and aloof nobleman, then Xiao Han is a cold and serious tough guy.
It's rare to see someone as serious as Xiao Han make a joke.
Seeing the interest and schadenfreude in everyone's eyes, the girl silently swallowed.
She wondered if Uncle Xiao would kill her to silence her if he found out she had exposed his habit of walking with the same foot as his.
Seeing everyone gathered around the child, which made her expression stiffen, Dan Anwen said calmly, "Dan Si must know about this too, you can ask him."
As soon as he finished speaking, he led the girl towards the restaurant.
The people behind him didn't care much about Dan Anwen's protective behavior and directly surrounded Dan Si, who had been watching the commotion.
Looking at the expressions on everyone's faces, as if they would have dealt with him on the spot if he hadn't said anything, Dan Si felt like crying. Uncle, you are really too unkind. I am your own nephew!
Isn't this pushing him into a fire pit? If Uncle Xiao finds out he leaked the secret, he'll take him to the military camp and train him until he vomits.
The two people in front were completely unaware of Dan Si's resentment behind them, and quickly led Guo Guo, who had been running all the way, directly to the restaurant.
I was worried that Guoguo would get carsick this morning, so I didn't feed her enough. I also forgot to bring her snacks because I was in a hurry to leave. Now that Guoguo has removed her eggs, eating is all she's interested in.
The scenery along the way is also extremely attractive. The villa is surrounded by mountains, and even in the sweltering summer, it has a cool feel. The midday sun is warm here.
"Zhao Zhao, have some ice cream." Dan Shu brought over two scoops of ice cream.
Gu Zhaodi was about to speak when Dan Anwen interrupted her, as she looked at the evaporating ice cream.
"The child can't eat cold food right now, so give it to me." This was clearly said to Dan Shu.
Dan Shu looked at the two of them strangely. What kind of amazing operation was this?
"Cousin, I can't eat cold food right now, my period just ended," the girl whispered to Dan Shu, a hint of shyness in her voice.
Dan Shu, who was also a girl, instantly understood what the girl meant. But her uncle had actually managed to accurately control Zhao Zhao's menstrual cycle. He really had a knack for it!
This time, Dan Shu really wronged Dan Anwen. It was all because when the girl's period started a few days ago, her pale and bloodless face was hard for Dan Anwen not to notice.
The restaurant's air conditioning kept the temperature comfortable, and the walls shielded it from the scorching heat from the outside.
But the girl still wanted some ice cream; who wouldn't want a cool, refreshing scoop of ice cream in this kind of weather?
The girl's longing gaze at the ice cream made the man chuckle slightly. Normally, girls don't crave delicious food, but they often crave it when they can't have it.
To prevent her from watching longingly, the man quickly finished the scoop of ice cream.
Everyone at the dinner table noticed the man's behavior, especially Shen Jiyang, who had a mocking expression on his face, practically scrutinizing the two of them with a magnifying glass.
As Dan Si was eating, he noticed that everyone was staring at his uncle and Zhao Zhao. He joined in the fun and glanced over. Was there anything strange about it? It was just his uncle eating ice cream.
Wait, ice cream?
Dan Si's eyes widened instantly as he stared at the ice cream in Dan An's hand. This stuff was too sweet, and it didn't seem like something his uncle liked to eat. In any case, he had never seen his uncle touch ice cream before.
"Is it very beautiful?" Dan An heard the cold voice, and everyone quickly lowered their heads, afraid of being affected.
The afternoon was the hottest time of the day. The group took a sightseeing bus back to the hotel, planning to take a nap to replenish their energy before heading to the horse farm.
The presidential suite was very quiet, except for the sounds of typing and conversation coming from Dan Anwen's room.
"The asking price for this plot of land is too high," Dan Anwen said calmly, looking at the data in the document without expression.
The senior executive reporting on the screen looked slightly nervous. The president was supposed to be on vacation, so why was he in this discussion meeting?
"The reason for the excessively high price is that the Wang Group has been engaging in malicious competition recently." The senior executives spoke with trepidation.
The man's expression remained calm, but the coldness in his tone dropped several degrees. "Liu Lei, go and handle this."
"Yes, President." Liu Lei silently mourned for a few seconds for the CEO of Wang's Enterprise.
Trying to force Dan Anwen to compromise and get a share of the profits through this method is simply wishful thinking. In the face of absolute capital, they are almost powerless to resist or fight back.
