Chapter 72 A small world (1/2)
There were many scenic spots and historical sites in Zhongshan City. Besides, Ye Sichen came here to hold a vigorous music tour more than a year ago, which also drove the popularity of tourism. The mountains that he went to, the hotel he stayed in, as well as the roads that he walked across, which were all listed as the tourist areas. The tourists in Zhongshan City would go to the places where Ye Sichen had stayed the first time to feel the scent of the superstar.
Xia Nuan hunted for a job for a day, but there wasn’t a suitable one. Therefore, she had to apply for a tourism group. Finally, a small travel company hired her as a trainee tour guide for her good image.
The internship period was three months. But if she did well, she would get a raise.
Xia Nuan promised momentarily. After all, there was no other suitable jobs for her. Besides, being a tour guide would make herself relaxed and forgot the bad things in the past.
Xia Nuan was quite familiar with the city, including the scenic spots and historical sites, characteristics, and the history or legends. Soon, passengers appreciated with her explanation, so she received more and more orders.
When she wasn’t busy, she would help Song Kuncheng with trifles in his clinic. They got along well with each other, like brothers and sisters. To avoid suspicion, Xia Nuan always told others that Song Kuncheng was her brother. As time passed, the gossips disappeared.
When Xia Nuan was infusing the medicine to a patient, her phone rang suddenly, which was called by the travel company.
“Kun, I have something to deal with in the company. I had to go there.” Xia Nuan picked up the phone and was ready to rush to the company.
Song Kuncheng smiled slightly and nodded, “Hurry up then. Be careful on the way.”
Xia Nuan nodded, “Uh-huh. Okay.”
Xia Nuan and Song Kuncheng waved goodbye to each other.
Song Kuncheng watched her back and called her, “Xia Nuan.”
“What’s the matter? Kun?” Xia Nuan turned back and looked at Song Kuncheng.
Song Kuncheng greeted her, “Take an umbrella. It might rain today.”
After saying that, he took the umbrella hanging on the wall and handed it on Xia Nuan’s hand.
Xia Nuan took it over and smiled to Song Kuncheng.
Watching Xia Nuan’s back, Song Kuncheng saw Xia Nuan off with a warm smile on his lips.
“Xia Nuan, the tourists are from abroad this time. I remember you can speak a foreign language, right? And your performance is outstanding. Therefore, you are responsible for this order.” Manager He assigned the task to Xia Nuan.
Xia Nuan thought about it and said, “Manager, foreign tourists usually want to visit some new tourist attractions, but I am not familiar with those.” Those new tourist attractions were related to Ye Sichen. She didn’t want to go because when she saw the stuffs related to Ye Sichen, she would remember him.
Manager He frowned and refuted her, “You don’t understand the situation. Without ancient history, the explanation for the new tourist attractions is simple and concise. Unlike those ancient buildings, it takes a long time to explain a house. You can just accompany the guests and wander in the spots.”
Seeing that Xia Nuan still felt unwilling to take the job, he encouraged her, “You can do it. I am very confident of you. Xia Nuan, don’t let me down.”
Seeing the pleading expression on his face, Xia Nuan had to agree with him.
However, the tourists came here by themselves instead of in groups this time. There were only three of them and they chose to be accompanied by a local tour guide.
Xia Nuan accepted the order and waited for the inform of the travel agency.
It was about 5 o’clock in the afternoon. The travel agency called Xia Nuan to pick up the tourists in Zhongshan Dock.
Xia Nuan stood on the dock with a schoolbag on her back and wore a pair of comfortable casual shoes.
There were no flights in Zhongshan City, only waterways and landways. Therefore, most of the foreign tour groups went there by cruise ships or yachts. Since the place was separated from the bustling metropolis by the sea, tourists would come here by cruise ships after getting off their flights.
When Xia Nuan was eager to see the tourists, her phone rang. The number was sent by the tourists to the travel agency, and the visitor’s name was Paul.
“Hello, Mr. Paul. I have arrived here. Could you tell me your location?”
He said that they had arrived at the dock. So, she went there according to the address stated by him. When she looked up, she saw three men in casual clothes, standing not far away. They were more than 180 cm and walked over to her in erect postures.
One of them wore a mask…
Xia Nuan was shocked and paused her steps.
It was Ye Sichen…
No. She must make a mistake.
Xia Nuan’s heartbeat was getting faster, so she turned back in order not to be seen by them. Perhaps, the three men weren’t the tourists she was supposed to pick up.
Xia Nuan walked forward and wished secretly that the phone didn’t ring with a sense of fluke. But, at this time, the phone rang.
It was Paul.
Xia Nuan had to pick up the phone.
“Ms. Tour Guide, could you please tell me where you are now?”
Xia Nuan heard the same voice coming from the man behind her and the man answering her phone at the same time.
Xia Nuan was flurried, but she had to face it. Therefore, she turned around and waved to the man who was calling her not far away.
The three men walked toward her.
The man with a mask wore the black casual clothes and a hat. His eyes were gloomy, and he looked at her with a little surprise.
His clothes were slightly lifted by the sea breeze, which brought out his erect figure.
The man who called greeted her, “Hey, Ms. Tour Guide. My name is Paul, and they are my friends, Dawson and Chen.”
Xia Nuan smiled reluctantly and put her scattered hair behind her ear, “Mr. Paul, the tour bus was parked before us, please come with me.”
She was sure the Chen that Paul referred was Ye Sichen, so she was afraid to look at him and only communicated with Paul.
