The next morning, Zhang Hongmei and Zeng Zhongkang got ready, and Zhao Tiancheng drove them to the airport.
They arrived early and sat in the rest area. "Hongmei, why do you want to go to Country Y?"
"Hehe, I'm really just going to have fun. Besides, I just want to see the architecture there, and I've heard that the lives of nobles are very extravagant. I want to see for myself."
Zeng Zhongkang didn't believe Zhang Hongmei went out to play without a purpose. But this time, he was wrong.
“Annie is here.” Zhang Hongmei stood up and walked over.
"Mom, have you been here long?"
No, it's been about ten minutes.
"Hello, godfather and godmother, Carlos."
"Okay, all is well!" Huang Meihua smiled kindly.
Zeng Zhongkang, carrying his luggage, also came over to greet them.
Carlos checked the time. "We still have some time. Shall we go sit in the rest area for a while?"
The group of six sat down again. Annie leaned close to Zhang Hongmei, and the two whispered to each other, appearing very intimate.
Upon hearing the announcement in a sweet voice, the six people boarded the plane with the crowd.
Annie sat next to Zhang Hongmei, and the two seemed to have endless things to talk about.
The plane flew for twelve hours before finally landing.
Zhang Hongmei felt a little unwell, and Annie was even more uncomfortable. However, the little girl didn't make a fuss. After getting off the plane, she sighed like a little adult, "Such a long time."
Zhang Hongmei smiled and picked up Annie. "Baby, are you tired?"
"Yes, Mom. You must be tired too. I can walk by myself."
At this moment, Zeng Zhongkang came over and said, "Let me hold Annie."
"Okay, let Uncle Zeng hold me."
Zeng Zhongkang smiled after hearing Annie's words, "You can't bear to part with your mother, but you can bear to part with me."
“Of course, my mom is a girl, and she’s so thin. Uncle Zeng, you’re tall and strong, you’re very powerful,” Annie said confidently.
The five of them laughed at Annie's words. Their laughter attracted a lot of attention. Zeng Zhongkang, though not particularly handsome, was undeniably tall and imposing, so many people were secretly watching them.
Annie saw her family laughing and was a little confused. "Mom, did I describe him wrong? Can't 'tall and mighty' be used here?"
"Hehe, of course it works, and it's used very accurately."
"Hehe, I thought I said something wrong. Then why are you all laughing?"
"Is it because Annie is smart?"
"Let's stay at a hotel tonight. It'll be more convenient, and we can go home tomorrow."
Zhang Hongmei has no objections; do whatever arrangements you make.
Annie and Zhang Hongmei shared a room, as they had agreed beforehand, and in the end, they booked four rooms.
The next morning, Zhang Hongmei did not wake Annie, since she had only slept for four or five hours and children need more sleep.
Open the window and a breath of fresh air rushes in.
Standing high up, you can see far; while you might not be able to see most of the city, your field of vision is still quite broad.
Not wanting to go downstairs and cause a scene, I stood by the window and did a round of Tai Chi. After washing up, I went downstairs and bumped into Carlos, who was coming out.
"morning!"
Good morning! Did you sleep well? How's Annie?
"That's fine. Annie is still sleeping, so I didn't wake her. I'll go clean up in a bit. Let her godparents and Annie stay here."
"Hehe, you don't need to. I'll go out and find someone in a bit. You guys can stay at the hotel today and go out for a stroll later."
The two walked and talked. When they got downstairs, they saw Zeng Zhongkang returning from his run.
He nodded to the two people, wiped his sweat, and went upstairs.
“I’m going up too. I’m afraid Annie will wake up and be scared if she can’t find anyone.”
Once everyone came down, they went to the restaurant for breakfast. The breakfast there was almost identical to that in the US, so no one felt uncomfortable.
After finishing his meal, Carlos said goodbye and left. He wasn't just here for fun; he also had to visit the office. However, this would only take two days to complete, and he would spend the rest of the time with his family.
Beth chuckled and said, "Let's go shopping as a family. Buy whatever you like; it's on me today."
Annie and Zhang Hongmei were both excited. "Godfather, you'd better bring lots of money."
"Hehe, it's alright, just buy it without worry. Shall we go take a look at Regent Street?"
"Godfather, we've never been here before. How are we supposed to know where to go? Are there any guides here?"
"Hehe, that's a good idea. Let's ask the hotel staff. If we have a tour guide, we won't waste any time."
After Beth finished speaking, he went to the front desk. Several people sat there waiting for him.
Before long, he brought over a handsome young man.
He's incredibly handsome, with blond hair, blue eyes, and deep-set features. He has a really charismatic presence.
Zhang Hongmei unconsciously glanced at him a few more times, but Zeng Zhongkang leaned forward and inadvertently blocked her view.
Zhang Hongmei pouted. Honestly, she was just appreciating it, okay? If they don't let her watch, she won't.
The young man noticed Zhang Hongmei at first glance, but seeing the hostility of the man next to her, he smiled slightly and said, "Hello everyone, I am Alexander Walker. It is a great honor to serve you."
Beth smiled and sat down. "This is a hotel staff member. He's off work now and can be our tour guide."
None of the others had any objections, except for Zeng Zhongkang, who was a little unhappy, but he didn't show it too obviously.
"Mr. Walker, please wait a moment. We'll go upstairs and tidy up. We'll be back in ten minutes."
"Please, I'll wait here."
Zhang Hongmei took Annie's hand, and the two of them went upstairs, each carrying their own bag. They didn't even change their clothes before hurrying downstairs.
"Annie, let's go shopping for hats, or the sun will come out and we'll get sunburned."
“Okay, Mom, I love pretty hats the most.” The two walked downstairs hand in hand, with Zeng Zhongkang following behind them.
He sighed inwardly. What a worry! What kind of girl stares at a man like that? Luckily, he was the one with her. If the boss were there, this girl probably wouldn't dare to be so blatant.
The five of them came downstairs almost simultaneously. Led by Alexander Walker, they set off.
"Mr. Walker, could you take us to buy hats first?"
Hearing a beautiful woman speak to him, and hearing her truly melodious voice, Alexander Walker nodded happily. "Of course! Let's go to Regent Street first. There are many boutiques there. The hats are very beautiful. Beautiful lady, you can choose whatever you like."
Zhang Hongmei smiled and said, "Thank you!"
Walking down the street, it felt like I was back in the present. Although I've never had the chance to visit Country Y, I've seen pictures of it in magazines!
