Chapter 340 - Happy New Year’s Eve (1/2)

Su Peizhen was accompanying Luo Meishan and Song Youhe here this time, so Luo Meishan and Song Youhe had made all the arrangements with regards to the itinerary.

It was only when they had arrived at the hot spring resort that Su Peizhen was able to crack a smile.

“I have been to this resort in the past and the environment is rather good.”

Su Peizhen glanced at Qiu Junqiao. The trip originally had nothing to do with Qiu Junqiao, but for reasons unknown to them, she had asked to come along after knowing of their plan.

Because they had to wait for her, they had set off a day later.

However, it became clear to them that Qiu Junqiao, for reasons unknown, kept spacing out.

“Junqiao, what’s the matter with you?” Although there was no possibility for Su Peizhen and Qiu Yanbo to be together again, she was still Qiu Junqiao’s longtime friend and concern streaked her face.

“It’s nothing.” Qiu Junqiao was a little irritated. She was really scared out of her wits by Huo Jinyao that day. For two to three days after that, she was not able to recover from the shock.

The sort of near-death experience where one felt as if one was really going to die in the hands of the grim reaper was horrifying.

Despite such a big setback to her, she still could not have her way with Huo Jinyao. This was due to the fact that even Qiu Yanbo had instructed her not to be at odds with Su Qingsang.

These words…these words…are they words that a brother should say to his sister?

Was it not all because of a project? Huo Jinyao had the authority to re-assign the project to someone else because of Su Qingsang, so why did Qiu Yanbo, as her brother, told her to put up with it?

“If it’s nothing then let’s go to our rooms first. We’ll put our luggage down and take a slow tour around later.”

The entourage had a considerable amount of luggage and Su Peizhen never had much patience. These trivial things used to be taken care of for her by others, but this time, due to being on a trip with fellow privileged ladies, she had to do it herself.

The other women all agreed to her suggestion and retired to their rooms after checking into the resort.
