Inside the car, the signal dropped again. Xiang Nanzhi felt a little better and closed his eyes, drifting off to sleep.
The journey was smooth, with only occasional stops where the driver would slam on the brakes, nearly causing Xiang Nanzhi's head to hit the seat in front of him.
Thankfully, Shen Shixun was supporting her, otherwise she would have been covered in a huge bag.
"You can lean on my shoulder if you want to sleep."
He smelled terrible, but she wasn't much better off. She closed her eyes and leaned on his shoulder.
"What do you plan to do if the car doesn't come?"
"I'll take you along this road."
Xiang Nanzhi: ...
He really does have a way of doing things, but they're all stupid ones.
Even if he doesn't die from exhaustion, she'll be dying from the heat.
The two were unlucky; when they arrived in Latour, the last flight to the ancient city had already taken off.
The man, carrying a black backpack, looked up at the sky and nearly fainted from anger.
I found a five-star hotel and booked the most expensive room in the hotel. The cost of living in Latour is not high; the most expensive room in this five-star hotel is only three thousand yuan a night.
When Xiang Nanzhi got the room key, she realized that her luggage, phone, and cards were all missing, and she was even wearing Gila's clothes.
"May I borrow your phones? I need to make a call to my older brother."
My brother is rich; he won't let her get into a predicament like this.
Lathu is the largest and most prosperous city in Saigon. Although there are some things to be desired about it, it is far better than the vast grasslands and deserts.
Shen Shixun handed over his bank card, solving her immediate problem.
"Thank you."
Xiang Nanzhi said, "I will give you a thank-you fee when we get to the ancient city."
On the grassland, she was a clueless dodder vine, dependent on him for survival. Even away from the grassland, she remained Xiang Zhengyi's little daughter, a pampered young lady who expected everything to be done for her.
A single banknote can solve everything with a simple gesture.
Shen Shixun paused for a moment, and Xiang Nanzhi turned to look at him. "Although your hometown is dilapidated, you still took good care of me. I remember your kindness."
It sounded as if he was taking credit.
After entering the hotel, Xiang Nanzhi saw her reflection in the mirror and wondered if she was seeing a ghost.
"My face...is peeling..."
She got a bit tanned, and after washing her face at the hotel, her face started to turn red and peel.
"Shen Shixun, do I look ugly like this?"
He's gotten used to it. "It's not ugly, it's very healthy."
You're probably laughing at me inside, aren't you?
"No."
He genuinely felt very healthy. City dwellers don't like sunbathing, but he loved it because he believed sunbathing was essential for calcium absorption.
He had no idea what she was so excited about; even the smallest things could set her off.
