Lan Xi woke up at dawn, rubbed her aching head, and the quilt on her body felt heavy. She lifted the quilt and got out of bed. She stepped barefoot on the carpet, and the anklet on her ankle made her feet look even whiter!
The ink-wash style carpet makes people feel more peaceful. On the low table next to the lazy sofa in the bedroom, there is a thermos cup left for her by Zhu Lingling.
Sinking into the lazy sofa, Lan Xi poured herself a glass of warm water. There were several blankets in the storage box next to her. She took out one and covered her legs with it, then turned on her cell phone.
The group was filled with videos of their indulgence last night. The little girl almost got drunk while competing with others in drinking.
I reached out to the table, picked up the cup, and took a sip. The temperature was just right and my headache was relieved a little.
After everyone was fully awake, Lan Xi went to the locker room, changed into fitness clothes, and went to the gym.
A week after coming back, Lan Xi still hadn't set foot in here. The designer had only shown her the 3D drawings. But when she actually walked in, she found that the space was used reasonably, the colors were cool, and it felt good on her feet.
After changing into shoes, Lan Xi first took a short walk on the treadmill. She had her own rhythm and had been demanding about her figure for many years. She knew what kind of movements could make her look slimmer.
Two hours later, she walked out of the gym with a little sweat on her face and back. She went back to the bathroom to take a shower and hummed a song while changing clothes in the locker room.
The fair and flawless face in the mirror was not made up yet, and the custom-made black velvet dress on her upper body made her waist look very slender.
I found a purple pearl necklace to wear around my neck and a pair of pearl earrings to match.
Lan Xi looked left and right and narrowed her eyes. She was very satisfied with herself now. After matching the accessories, she put them aside and started to put on makeup.
When Zhu Lingling came in, she saw Lan Xi had already started curling her hair. She asked in surprise, "Miss, why are you up so early?"
Lan Xi looked at herself in the mirror. She was wearing a Chanel-style suit and light makeup as usual, but her straightened hair and bangs that were obviously curled made her look different from usual.
"Tsk! You look good today. You should dress like this from now on. You are not an old woman, and your young lady's face does not need you to set off!"
Lan Xi let go of the curling iron, handed it to Zhu Lingling, and sat down in front of the chair she had brought.
Zhu Lingling blushed slightly as she curled Lan Xi's hair with a curling iron: "Breakfast is ready outside. You can eat it directly when you go out later!"
Lan Xi hummed lazily, then said, "You didn't do it, did you?"
Zhu Lingling looked at Jiang Yun in the mirror and shook her head honestly: "I have interviewed several chefs in Hai City with good reputations before. Today is my first day here, so I will leave before you eat!"
Lan Xi frowned, disgust showing on her face. She hated having outsiders in her home.
Zhu Lingling looked at Lan Xi's expression and said quickly:
"It's from a clean background. I'll prepare disinfection and a change of clothes at the door. It won't have any impact. You have a weak stomach, so you can't be careless with every meal! If you really can't, I'll bring it up from downstairs!"
Lan Xi's expression didn't improve much, but her words showed that her attitude had softened a bit: "Keep an eye on these people, don't let them wander around!"
"Okay, I know!" Zhu Lingling nodded. After curling her hair, she closed the curling iron and took a comb to tie her hair up.
Lan Xi nodded with satisfaction as she gathered her thick, shiny black hair on both sides of her body.
On the dining table, there were fried eggs, sandwiches, fruits, and milk. Lan Xi sat down, reached out, picked up the sandwich and took a bite.
"Try it and see how it tastes. If you don't like it, we can change it!" Zhu Lingling had already eaten it, and based on her observations over the years, she felt that there should be no problem.
Lan Xi didn't show any special reaction, but seeing that she didn't look dissatisfied was already very rare. Zhu Lingling knew that she had done the right thing!
After finishing the last bite of fruit, Lan Xi stood up to put on her lipstick, while Zhu Lingling collected the dishes and put them in the dishwasher.
There was nothing to do in the morning, so Lan Xi was organizing documents in the study.
At 1 o'clock she left the house with her bag.
"Miss, do you really not need me to follow you?" Zhu Lingling pressed the elevator button for Lan Xi and asked again with a bitter face.
Lan Xi didn't even look at her. As soon as the elevator opened, she walked straight in. "You should think carefully about what I told you. Wait for my news this afternoon and prepare the gifts for the Shi family in advance!"
"Got it!" Zhu Lingling watched the elevator close with eager eyes.
After going downstairs, Lan Xi drove to the nearest coffee shop. She discovered this coffee shop by chance. The owner was a foreigner and many of the coffee beans he used were new to her.
"Xi! You're here!" The blond and blue-eyed boss was standing at the ordering area and smiled charmingly when he saw Lan Xi.
Lan Xi walked over to look at today's menu and was at a loss as to what to choose.
"Let me help you! You sit first!" The boss saw Lan Xi's hesitation and helped her solve the problem with a smile.
Lan Xi looked at the coffee shop owner. She had never asked his name or age, and always called him Boss. She couldn't actually tell his age. He was the only one in the coffee shop, just like before.
"Boss, I haven't been here for 3 years!"
The boss smiled and turned to prepare something for her.
I found a seat by the window. I hadn’t been here for three years, and the decoration style hadn’t changed. It would be very popular in winter.
For example, if you have just celebrated Christmas, you might want to order some hot soup or hot tea, which sometimes feels better than coffee.
The welcoming bell rang crisply, and Lan Xi saw the woman in a windbreaker and sweatpants whom she had been watching walking towards her. She had her hat on, so her face couldn't be seen clearly, but her exposed eyes looked very powerful.
"Hello, what would you like to eat?" The boss's magnetic voice sounded. His experience in China over the years made his Chinese sound standard and sexy.
