In this water play battle, the five women played for almost an hour. Later, when they started playing, Xin Ruan was also dragged down from the edge of the pool by them, which scared her and made her scream repeatedly. Pei Zhaoyang, who was lying on the balcony, almost immediately changed his face. He jumped agilely over the railing, grabbed the eaves with one hand, and arrived at the swimming pool in a few seconds.
Tang Zitian and the others watched helplessly as he descended from the sky, all dumbfounded.
Xin Ruan was grabbed by his hand and almost dragged ashore, feeling extremely embarrassed. He softly exclaimed, "I'm fine, everyone was just joking around
The water in the shallow area had just reached Xin Ruan's waist, and Pei Zhaoyang had just regained his senses. His expression was slightly disheveled: "Well... I thought... you guys were playing, and I was watching from the side
Mr. Pei, "Yu Qiaoqiao joked," you're really good at showing off this skill. We won't dare to bully Xiao Ruan anymore
Coincidentally, the doorbell rang and the private butler brought breakfast over. The somewhat awkward atmosphere at the scene finally eased, and everyone joked and went ashore to their rooms to change clothes.
Xin Ruan was taking a shower in the shower room, and the more she thought about it, the more off she felt. Why was Pei Zhaoyang so nervous just now? Does he know she's afraid of water and can't swim?
She has had this problem since she was young. In junior high school, there was a physical education entrance exam, and swimming was a mandatory subject. She had to study for half a day before using a dog to paddle ten meters in the water. In the end, the invigilator gave her two points. Later, after encountering danger in T country, she developed an inexplicable fear of water and even forgot about the ten meters that the dog had paddled.
Pei Zhaoyang even knows this. Did he fall in love with her at first sight since childhood and start coveting her? Not only does she have no impression of Pei Zhaoyang, but her family and friends also don't know him, which is unlikely.
Looking out of the shower room, Pei Zhaoyang was sitting on the sofa in the bedroom, with his hands raised behind his head and resting on the back of his head. His gaze fell on the unknown void and he didn't know what he was thinking.
She bit her lip, feeling a little annoyed.
This man is good at everything else, just like a muffled gourd, unwilling to confess anything to her. She can't be presumptuous and force someone to ask: When did you start falling in love with me at first sight and why? How long have you secretly loved me? Do you love me so much that you can't extricate yourself?
What if it's not? Where should she put her face?
Yu Qiaoqiao's cry came from downstairs, and Pei Zhaoyang came to his senses and walked outside the shower room, asking, "Are you ready
Almost done, "Xin Ruan responded, turning off the rain soaked lotus seed pod and picking up a towel to wipe her body while saying," Oh, I forgot to bring my clothes in. Can you help me get that dress on the bed
After a while, the clothes were handed in, Xin Ruan pulled them, but the hand holding the clothes did not loosen, and Pei Zhaoyang squeezed in.
One without a single strand, one dressed neatly.
There is nothing more shameful than this.
Xin Ruan was both shy and anxious, pushing and lowering her voice as she called out, "Stop messing around, they're all waiting downstairs
Pei Zhaoyang turned a deaf ear and lingered his hands on her, forcing Xin Ruan to cling tightly to him. The rough fabric rubbed against her body, accompanied by the warmth of his palms, making her hands and feet feel weak.
Pei Zhaoyang, I'm going to get angry... "Xin Ruan weakly threatened.
Pei Zhaoyang dared not continue to act recklessly, so he reluctantly sniffed the scent of the shower gel on her body and murmured in her ear, "Next time you won't let those people come out together, you'll just play with them and leave me behind your ears. You didn't accompany me last night, and you didn't accompany me this morning either
It turns out I'm not happy here anymore, even Yu Qiaoqiao and the others are jealous.
Xin Ruan had no choice but to coax him, "Okay, okay. When you arrive in T country, do whatever you want
Does he keep his word? "Pei Zhaoyang half believed and half doubted, holding onto her and refusing to let go.
Arithmetic, arithmetic. "Xin Ruan was forced to sign the" League of the City.
Playing in the swimming pool in the morning is still very physically demanding. After breakfast, the female compatriots were a bit tired and sat in the courtyard on the first floor chatting. Xin Ruan and the three of them squeezed into the meditation pavilion, sitting cross legged, enjoying a rare day of leisure.
Now it's the turn of the male compatriots to perform. Pei Zhaoyang has a habit of exercising in the morning and took the lead in swimming twice in the pool. His muscles are strong, his perfect inverted triangle and powerful long legs shuttle through the water waves, like a dragon playing in the water; Fei Bao is even taller and more powerful, splashing water in all directions and swimming several laps without taking a breath.
Among the three, Xiao Yuxing appeared slightly more delicate, with fair skin and a graceful figure. However, his swimming style was particularly beautiful, with butterfly movements flowing like clouds and water. In the moment he finally emerged from the water, he looked like a little white dragon.
Yu Qiaoqiao couldn't help but curl her lips and snort softly, "Show off
Tang Zitian glanced at her suspiciously and asked, "Why do you keep disliking him? Isn't he quite a gentleman
There's some trickery, "Xin Ruan chased after.
Yu Qiaoqiao spat and said, "Only ghosts have tricks
I don't believe it, "Xin Ruan and Tang Zitian looked at each other and tickled her." Tell me honestly
The three of them laughed and played together.
The whole day passed very quickly, with friends chatting, taking a walk, playing cards, and having a barbecue dinner arranged by the hotel for lunch. Time passed in the blink of an eye.
In the afternoon, an unexpected guest arrived at the villa, Xiao Yimo, Xiao Yuxing's uncle. Uncle Xiao, who has a great seniority, is said to be only two years older than Xiao Yuxing. When they pushed open the door and entered, Xin Ruan and the others were all impressed.
If Pei Zhaoyang is handsome and masculine, and Xiao Yuxing is elegant and gentle, then this Xiao Yimo is handsome and noble.
Perhaps just coming down from the golf course, he was dressed in a white sports suit that was very casual, with a pair of peach blossom eyes in his facial features that looked particularly outstanding. His every move and gesture was like that of an ancient nobleman from Zhilan Yushu.
However, this person was clearly not as friendly and gentlemanly as Xiao Yuxing. When he smiled, he only curled the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were slightly cold and thin. There was a hint of arrogance in his eyes, as if no one could enter his eyes. Only when he saw his nephew and Pei Zhaoyang, he smiled sincerely.
Pei Zhaoyang respected him very much and invited him to sit in the living room for a while. Finally, Xiao Yuxing bid farewell with him in advance. It was said that there was something going on at home that caused a stir and urgently needed their uncle and nephew to put out the fire.
Without the eloquent Xiao Yuxing, the group became much quieter. As time passed, the trip to Hualu Mountain Villa came to an end. Everyone left their rooms together and took a car back to the city center of Ji'an.
In a few days, the trip to T country arrived before our eyes. Qin Tezhu is very reliable in handling affairs. His passport, visa, and plane tickets are all in place, and the hotel has been booked. He has also sent several important itinerary booking forms to Xin Ruan's phone, which is very detailed in every detail.
Xin Ruan went home early and told Xin Zhenshan and his grandmother about this matter. Grandma is getting old and has long forgotten where T country is, but Xin Zhenshan has not forgotten. Instinctively, he still has lingering fears, and finally reluctantly relaxed when he heard that Pei Zhaoyang went with him.
Xin Fei has already finished her college entrance examination. When she heard that Xin Ruan was going on a trip, she was extremely envious. If she hadn't filled out her college application right away, she would have been obsessed with Xin Ruan and wanted to go with her.
After purchasing some scattered items needed for tourism outside, Xin Ruan returned home and started packing her luggage.
Pei Zhaoyang has been very busy these past few days. Just thinking about it, he has to take a week off from his busy schedule, and ordinary employees have to work overtime, let alone the CEO of a listed group company.
The clothes and daily necessities were almost packed, and Xin Ruan remembered that the hotel was located in a primitive forest, where there might be mosquitoes and insects. She wanted to check if there were any insect repellent such as wind oil essence at home to bring. After searching around, I couldn't find Fengyoujing, but I found a locked independent small single room next to the back balcony.
This apartment is obviously designed for wealthy families, with two elevators and two entrance halls. The part of the balcony connected to the back is used by the nanny and can be separated from the main house. Xin Ruan rarely comes here after living in.
The locked room should be the nanny's room, about 12-13 square meters in size, with the door tightly closed.
Xin Ruan was somewhat curious, why did Pei Zhaoyang lock up this place? Is there any secret here that she cannot know?
After circling around the room, Xin Ruan arrived at the rear balcony, which had two doors. The other door was a glass sliding door leading to the nanny's room, which was covered by curtains. Only the area near the ground was exposed due to the curtains not being neatly drawn.
She lay on the ground and tried to look inside. From this angle, the room was empty, with only a few cabinets placed against the wall.
Why lock it up?
Throughout the afternoon, Xin Ruan's mind was filled with the mysterious room, pondering over various possibilities.
Is it possible that there is cash or collectibles inside that are locked and not easily stolen by thieves?
It's impossible. There's a safe in the master bedroom suite and a million dollar Western oil painting by Pei Zhaoyang in the studio. It's not locked, so what valuable thing needs to be cherished in this way?
Could it be that Pei Zhaoyang had a difficult relationship to let go of when he was young, and in order to avoid her seeing it, he locked it up?
That's possible, but does she look like this stingy person? Will he continue to entangle with Pei Zhaoyang over a past relationship?
Or perhaps there are some top secret company documents stored here that are not suitable for her as an outsider to read
Xin Ruan pondered for a while, but didn't come up with anything. In the end, she suddenly woke up: What's wrong with her? Why did you suddenly feel anxious about Pei Zhaoyang's inexplicable action? Isn't she the most fond of the love concept of coming and going as she pleases and not forcing? Since Pei Zhaoyang doesn't want her to know, why bother to guess and inquire?
Could it be that her feelings for Pei Zhaoyang have unconsciously reached a level that she herself did not even expect, and have become deeply immersed and unable to extricate herself?
With this thought, Xin Ruan was completely stunned.
At night, Xin Ruan planned to ask indirectly, but by the time Pei Zhaoyang returned, she had already fallen asleep in a daze.
The flight to T country was scheduled for noon the next day. Originally, Pei Zhaoyang was supposed to go to the company in the morning and then come to pick up Xin Ruan to go to the airport. However, in the end, Pei Zhaoyang did not come and a driver came, saying that there was an urgent matter at the company and Pei Zhaoyang had to stay for another half an hour. In order to save time, the two had to go to the airport separately.
Upon arriving at the airport, Xin Ruan waited for about half an hour. As the flight boarding time approached, she had to send several WeChat messages urging her. However, for some reason, there was no response from Pei Zhaoyang. When she called again, her phone turned off.
Xin Ruan waited and waited until the big screen at the airport showed that the flight had taken off.
The air conditioning at the airport was very strong, and Xin Ruan, dressed in cool summer clothes, felt a bit cold. She hugged her arms tightly and sat in a chair with a tight fit.
She was somewhat confused and anxious.
Pei Zhaoyang is not someone who keeps his promises like this, and he shouldn't have thrown her at the airport like this. What happened?
I don't know how long had passed, but a burst of hurried footsteps sounded. Xin Ruan suddenly lifted her head, and her surprised expression froze at the corner of her mouth as soon as it was raised: "Zhao... Xiao Qin
Qin Tezhu ran over panting heavily and said, "Miss Xin, Mr. Pei can't come. Let me pick you up. There's something wrong with the company
