C94 (2/2)

”But I'm not cold.” Xia Lan said.

”Even if it's not cold, wear it.” Gu Xi Jue ordered in a deep voice, between his brows, he could feel a slight impatience.

”...” Xia Lan curled her lips. In order to not argue with him, she let him be.

”You're so old, yet you still don't know how to take care of yourself.” Gu Xi Jue muttered.

Xia Lan looked away, and a faint smile rose from the corners of her mouth.

At this moment, Gu Xi Jue's order actually made her feel a bit of warmth.

Along the way back to the hotel and to take a bath in his own room, Xia Lan glanced at the suit on the sofa and forgot to return it to him.

Sometimes, she felt that Gu Xi Jue was concerned about her, but his cold words made her lose confidence.

As she laid on the bed after showering, she once again thought of what Gu Xi Jue had said by the river. He said that he was serious, and she should understand his feelings for her.

Actually, he understood.

However... She had no self-confidence, no self-esteem.

The next day, as if nothing had happened, the two of them went downstairs together for breakfast.

Just as Xia Lan sat down, she heard Gu Xi Jue say, ”Let's go to Sea Blue Village after dinner.”

”Mm. Alright.” That was the main purpose of their trip, she knew.

Therefore, Xia Lan increased her eating speed, and before she could even eat a few bites, she burped.

After a few more hiccups, a large hand appeared in front of him, holding a cup of water.

He raised his head and saw the frown on his face. ”Why are you in such a hurry? No one wants to snatch it away from you.”

”It won't be long. Eat slowly.”

”Oh.” Xia Lan lowered her head and took small bites of the dish, looking extremely obedient and obedient.

This tact attracted Gu Xi Jue's attention, and he couldn't help but say: ”If only he was normally so tame.”

Xia Lan was stunned for two seconds, and retorted unhappily: ”It's as if what happens to you normally.”

”Yeah, I didn't do anything, but my reactions were a bit slow.”

At the dinner table last night, the local leader said that he could give him a car to make it convenient for his travel for the past few days. Gu Xi Jue rejected him and rented a car for him to go to Sea Blue Village.

This village was actually an independent island. The Sea Blue Village's area was not big, but it was surrounded by sea on all four sides. Behind the village was an interconnected mountain range, and the air was especially good. In this cloudy country, it was a stark contrast.

There were no more than one hundred households in the village, but they were all united. The ancestors had lived on this island for generations, so they were used to living off fish. The seafood here was beautiful, and soon, there were more tourists.

Therefore, Gu Xi Jue took note of the atmosphere, environment and unprecedented commercial value of the place.

The villagers believed that this was their own territory, and that the people were very simple and honest. They did not know what was development and what was demolition. They only knew that the rich people outside were going to invade their homes.

Therefore, every time Luo Song brought the employees of the Yattai Group and the local government to the Sea Blue Village to discuss this matter, they would not even need to discuss the main topic. As soon as Luo Song brought the staff of the Yattai Group to the Sea Blue Village to discuss this matter,

The only way into the village was by boat.

Xia Lan felt a little seasick, but it was not that serious. It was just that her face was a little pale, which made Gu Xi Jue's heart tighten as she watched.
