When Lan Shuang arrived at the reception room, she saw Jiang Han sitting inside smoking. His face was blurry in the smoke. He seemed to be looking at her, but also seemed to be just daydreaming.
"Jiang Han?"
The smoker paused and slowly exhaled a puff of white smoke. As Lan Shuang approached, the smoke gradually dissipated, revealing Jiang Han's deep and handsome face.
The dark blue eyes seemed to be even deeper, and when I looked up at him, I had the illusion of being surrounded by a quiet sea.
"Do you smoke?"
Lan Shuang waved her hand to disperse the smoke. Jiang Han raised an eyebrow and put out the cigarette, "Occasionally."
Lan Shuang found a place to sit down and smiled: "Yeah, it would be strange for someone of your status not to smoke, right?"
In the business world, it's not just alcohol that can connect people and bring them closer together; cigarettes do too. Smoking together means you know each other, so only a few people don't smoke.
Jiang Han didn't say anything. Someone soon came to deliver food. After the two of them finished eating, Jiang Han said, "The clothes have been delivered. Go change into them. We will go ashore soon. When you get ashore, follow me. You cannot contact the outside world without my permission."
Lan Shuang nodded: "Oh, okay."
She drank the last sip of juice and felt like she was alive again.
"What about my phone? Can't find it?"
She struggled a little bit, but Jiang Han said, "I asked someone to buy you a new one. The card is also new. Just use it."
"Huh?" Lan Shuang was stunned for a moment. "Give me your phone? Aren't you afraid that I might contact other people?"
Jiang Han gently pulled his lip, revealing a smile that seemed to be neither a smile nor a smile: "You can try."
Lan Shuang: "...Forget it, I still want to die."
Jiang Han's smile was more genuine this time.
…
Lan Shuang returned to the second floor and found that all the things had been delivered to her room, and there was also one more person.
Lan Shuang looked at the other person for a moment, then looked at Qi Yuan: "This is——"
Qi Yuan smiled and said, "Master Jiang has assigned you an assistant. I'm too busy to take care of everything, so Master Jiang has assigned one of his personal assistants to you. His name is Wen Yan. If you have any needs in the future, just tell him."
He paused and said, "Well...Wen Yan has a good temper, don't bully him!"
"Am I that kind of person? What misunderstanding do you have about me?"
Lan Shuang was too lazy to look at him after she finished speaking. She turned to look at Wen Yan. Wen Yan bowed slightly to her and smiled shyly. "Hello, Miss Lan. I am Wen Yan. Please take care of me in the future."
"Just call me by my name. My name is Lan Shuang. No need to be so polite."
Wen Yan smiled and said nothing. Lan Shuang didn't make things difficult for him. She picked up the clothes on the sofa and found a box underneath, which contained a pair of casual shoes.
“It’s quite complete.”
Lan Shuang went into the room carrying clothes, and came out after changing, with her hair tied into a high ponytail. Her whole temperament was different, and now she looked more like a young and energetic college student.
Wen Yan handed her the phone: "There is no password. Miss Lan can set it yourself."
Lan Shuang took it and looked at it. It was the latest model of mobile phone, quite expensive, but for Jiang Han, it was probably just a small amount and he didn't need to care about it.
But Lan Shuang still asked, "How much?"
Wen Yan reported a number, and Lan Shuang nodded and wrote it down.
Qi Yuan raised his eyebrows: "You are not thinking of paying it back?"
Lan Shuang gave him a puzzled look: "What else? It wouldn't make sense for me to take someone else's things for free, right?"
Qi Yuan choked and said, "That's true."
…
When Lan Shuang appeared in front of Jiang Han, Jiang Han was obviously stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered the previous photo. Lan Shuang's current appearance was almost perfectly replicated, but her temperament was completely different. She had lost her youthfulness and shyness, and her beauty was confident and bold.
The awkward feeling that had been looming in my mind suddenly subsided.
"Let's go ashore."
Jiang Han was the first to get down the ladder, and Lan Shuang followed closely behind. The bodyguards were always alert to the surrounding situation and did not relax even when they saw that there was no one around.
Two extended black cars were waiting on the shore. As soon as Jiang Han appeared, the bodyguards beside the car immediately saluted him. Qi Yuan stepped forward and opened the door for him. Jiang Han got in and then looked at Lan Shuang.
Lan Shuang originally wanted to go to the back car, but when she saw Jiang Han looking at her, she asked, "Can I go with you?"
Jiang Han raised his eyebrows: "Or?"
Lan Shuang looked at Wen Yan, who stood next to Qi Yuan and said, "Secretary Qi and I will take the car at the back."
Lan Shuang: "Okay."
She went around to the other side and got in the car.
After the car door was closed, all the windows were raised, and the car instantly became much darker. Lan Shuang took out her cell phone and checked the time. It was now 12:30 noon.
"Where are we going?"
Jiang Han crossed his legs and closed his eyes to rest. "You don't need to know. The drive takes three hours. If you're tired, just sleep."
"Three hours?" Lan Shuang regretted not going to the bathroom just now.
Jiang Han closed his eyes and stopped talking. Lan Shuang looked at the dark circles under his eyes, sighed, and also closed her mouth.
She watched the scenes flashing by outside the window and began to wonder whether it was at home or abroad.
Soon the car was on the right road. She felt very close to the familiar Chinese characters and felt at ease.
However, after a closer look, she realized she didn't recognize this place at all...
Forget it, go wherever you want.
After Lan Shuang closed her eyes and fell asleep, Jiang Han suddenly opened his eyes and looked at her. His gaze fell on her mobile phone and paused. Then he chuckled and went to sleep with peace of mind.
…
"Wake up, we're here."
Lan Shuang was woken up by Jiang Han. She opened her eyes blankly and stared at him for a long time: "We're here, where are we?"
Jiang Han turned off his phone. The bodyguard opened the car door for him and he stepped out. "Home."
Lan Shuang: “…”
She opened the car door and got out, and what came into view was a farmhouse surrounded by beautiful mountains and rivers.
For a moment, she suspected she was still asleep. "Xiao Baba, can you help me see what's written on that wooden sign?"
888: "Xinghua Village."
Lan Shuang: “…”
What a down-to-earth name.
She turned to look at Jiang Han, but found that the bodyguards had not followed her and had returned to the car. Only Qi Yuan and Wen Yan followed her.
"Are we going to live here?" Lan Shuang confirmed again. She always felt that the heroic Mr. Jiang didn't match this small mountain village with a very rustic atmosphere.
Jiang Han nodded: "Well, when you go in, you don't need to say much. Just say you are my girlfriend, these two are our friends, and we are here on vacation."
Lan Shuang shook her stiff neck and said, "Oh, okay."
Then she reached out and held Jiang Han's arm. Jiang Han was stunned at first, but then he relaxed and took her inside.
Wen Yan was surprised to see this, but Qi Yuan said to him as if it was nothing unusual: "Just get used to it. There will be many such scenes in the future. Don't make a fuss."
