Chapter 129 The CEO’s Cousin in a Workplace Story (43)
But their plan to change rooms was ultimately unsuccessful, as the hotel's business was so booming that rooms were hard to come by. Their room was specially reserved by the owner himself, and now that they needed to change rooms at the last minute, there were naturally no vacancies.
The two had to decline the boss's offer to vacate his own exclusive suite for them, and adhering to the principle of compromise since they were already here, they carried their luggage with embarrassment and returned to their original room.
"It's nothing actually. This room looks pretty good. As for the mirror, it should be used to make it easier for people to get dressed." After failing to change rooms, Lin Xi had to use her Ah Q spirit and spoke with a smile, but she couldn't hide the lack of confidence in her tone.
"Yeah." Ye Huai didn't know what to say for a moment, as if whatever he said would make his intentions more obvious. So he could only respond simply, trying his best to shift his gaze away from the steaming hot spring, and pack their luggage.
But putting aside the suggestive mirror, this room is indeed as nice as Lin Xi said. The whole room continues the antique architectural style of the hotel and is beautifully decorated, from the carved canopy bed and several exquisite screens to the paintings hanging on the wall, all have an ancient charm.
And because it is on the first floor, it also has an independent courtyard with good privacy. There is also a small pavilion in the middle of the courtyard with a tea set. If you ignore the cobblestones around the pavilion, sitting inside does give you a leisurely feeling of drinking tea.
The two set out in the morning and drove for several hours to the hotel. It was now time for lunch, so after packing up briefly, they went to the dining room.
The dining room is on the second floor of the hotel. It has both a buffet area and an a la carte area. When the two arrived, there were already quite a few people inside. Lin Xi took a look at the buffet dishes and thought they were pretty good, so she was too lazy to order any more dishes. She agreed on a meeting place with Ye Huai, and then went their separate ways to get what they wanted to eat.
Who would have thought that when she just took a bowl of steaming porridge from the waiter and turned around, a person came straight towards her as if he had no eyes.
Fortunately, Lin Xi reacted quickly. When the greasy dishes in the man's hand were about to splash on her, she quickly moved aside and let the man miss. However, a few drops of oil still splashed on her light-colored clothes, and the hot porridge in her hand also spilled because of her action, leaving a red spot on the back of her hand.
Lin Xi quickly put the bowl in her hand on the counter by the window and looked at the person who came with a frown, "Su Zimeng?"
"Oh, Miss Lin, why are you here? I'm so sorry, this plate is so slippery, I hope I didn't stain your clothes."
Su Zimeng didn't seem to expect to meet Lin Xi here. She was stunned for a moment, but then she quickly reacted and apologized to Lin Xi embarrassedly.
Lin Xi snorted coldly and said in an ambiguous tone, "Oh, I thought Miss Su would learn her lesson after the last lesson, but it turns out she still can't change her habit of throwing dirty things on people?"
Seeing Lin Xi being so rude, Su Zimeng gritted her teeth in anger, but she still pretended to be hurt and said pitifully, "I know that Miss Lin misunderstood me last time, but I was really careless this time..."
Lin Xi was too lazy to argue with her, so she rolled her eyes and said, "Although my clothes are not as expensive as three million, they are not cheap either. Now that they have been stained by Miss Su, do you plan to pay by mobile transfer or by credit card?"
"This..." Seeing more and more people attracted by the noise from the two, Su Zimeng suddenly remembered the purpose of coming here with Lu Yanchen today. Not wanting to be recognized, she changed her expression and said, "I'll pay, Miss Lin, tell me a number."
Seeing that she understood, Lin Xi softened her expression and said, "Add your contact information and I'll send you the price. As for the clothes, I'll send them to you after dry cleaning."
Su Zimeng reluctantly added Lin Xi's contact information. Only then did Lin Xi let her go, and then she went back to find Ye Huai with her porridge.
Ye Huai was far away and didn't know what had happened between Lin Xi and Su Zimeng, but he noticed the red mark on the back of Lin Xi's hand at a glance. Lin Xi naturally would not hide it for Su Zimeng, and told Ye Huai everything that had just happened.
Ye Huai didn't say anything after listening, but at night he quietly got up while Lin Xi fell asleep, dialed the phone, and instructed the person on the other end. Then he hugged her and went back to sleep contentedly.
The bronze mirror did not play its role in the end. Even though Lin Xi hugged Ye Huai's neck breathlessly and blushed as she signaled him to take the last step when they were taking a hot spring bath the next day, Ye Huai still managed to control himself with his strong self-control.
"I want to save our first time for our wedding night." In the curling mist, Ye Huai kissed Lin Xi's forehead and submerged himself in the water, not wanting Lin Xi to see his embarrassment.
Seeing him being so forbearing, Lin Xi seemed a little impatient. She bit his collarbone angrily, venting her dissatisfaction in her heart, "Old antique, if I postpone the wedding for a while, will you also keep forbearing?"
"That won't happen." Ye Huai shrank his shoulders when she bit him, his porcelain-white skin was stained with a bit of red, but he still hugged her and refused to let go. He buried his head in the crook of Lin Xi's shoulder and said sullenly, "Even if you want to go back, it's too late. The wedding dress and wedding ring are already made. You can only marry me on that day."
Feeling his warm breath spraying on her shoulders and neck, Lin Xi had goose bumps all over her body. She quickly reached out to push him away, "Humph, since you said it's not okay, then don't seduce me like a male demon."
Seeing her like this, Ye Huai couldn't help but laugh. He held her waist and picked her up. "Okay, you've been soaking for long enough. If you soak any longer, you'll feel dizzy."
Lin Xi snorted lightly, but did not struggle anymore. She let him wipe the water off her body, changed her into pajamas, and blew dry her hair. Finally, she hugged him and fell asleep.
The hotel is located halfway up the mountain, with beautiful scenery and very quiet environment, so the two of them had fun for three days in peace before returning.
After returning to the company, the first thing Ye Huai did was to call Li Yue into the office. The two of them whispered in the office for a long time behind Lin Xi's back. When Li Yue came out again, the expression on her face, which showed that she was going to do something bad, made Lin Xi feel a chill on her back, and she silently lit a candle for the victim in her heart.
