The road up to the mountains was very bumpy. No matter how tired Xiao Chennan was, it was completely impossible for him to be unconscious. However, when he woke up, they were already almost reaching the bed and breakfast.
Xiao Chennan could not help but frowned when he opened his eyes and looked at the environment and scenery around him. “Weren’t we supposed to go to the airport?”
Qingyan parked the car at the entrance of the homestay before he said, “Brother Chennan, I did not book you an international flight. I simply arranged for you to come up to the mountains so that you can enjoy and relax a little.”
After listening to Qingyan’s words, Xiao Chennan who was usually very calm and composed could not help but stare at him with anger in his eyes. “I want to go back now!”
“Brother Chennan…I know that you are very angry now but I really do not want you to go abroad to look for a needle in a haystack. If you want to look for Vera, we will definitely help you to look for her. However, if you leave and go abroad so rashly just to look for Sister Vera, will there even be any results at all? You do not even have any clues about her at all.”
Xiao Chennan could only close his eyes in anger.
Yes. Where was he going to start looking for her even if he went abroad?
Could he really believe in miracles and try his luck?
“This is a homestay with hot springs from the mountain. It is a very good place for you to calm your mood and relax a little. I hope that you can calm yourself down and think things through carefully. Think about what you are going to do when you find Vera. What will you do then? Are you simply going to say hello to her?”
“How many times are you going to regret your own actions?”
Xiao Chennan took a deep breath and he could not help but feel a little helpless at this time. After that, he finally stepped out of the car as he said, “Bring out my luggage.”
“I will get it immediately!” Qingyan was overjoyed.
After Qingyan checked in their luggage, he secretly confirmed Vera’s location with Tan Xiu. Tan Xiu replied that Vera would not be here during the day time as she wanted to go out to have a look at the beautiful scenery on the mountain on her own.
“Vera’s luggage is with me right now. I will ask her to bring her luggage to her room by herself when she returns to the homestay later in the afternoon.”
“Okay!”
The two of them made an appointment and Qingyan also directed Xiao Chennan to the executive suite that he would be staying at for the next three days.
This was a Japanese style bed and breakfast. All of the employees were staying in the studio with their rooms next to each other and only Vera and Xiao Chennan would be staying at a more secluded part of the homestay. Moreover, they would also have a separate courtyard and a hot spring pool in their room. In fact, the most important point was that their room was very quiet and secluded.
Xiao Chennan saw the rose petals that was placed in a heart shape as soon as he entered his room. After glancing outside the window, he also saw that the hot spring pool was also filled with rose petals. Xiao Chennan frowned immediately before he said, “I do not need such a big suite for myself.”
“But Brother Chennan, the rest of the rooms here are already fully booked. There is just this room left,” Qingyan replied helplessly as he put down Xiao Chennan’s luggage.
“Then you can stay here. I will take you room instead…”
“Brother Chennan, there are a lot of strangers staying near my room. Do you really think that is a good idea? Anyway, you can just rest and relax since it is relatively quiet here. I brought some of the movie scripts with me and you can just have a look at it too.”
As he spoke, Qingyan took the movie scripts out from his suitcase before he placed it on the wooden coffee table. After that, he left Xiao Chennan’s room immediately.
This should be sufficient for the happiness of those two people, right?
After deceiving those two people and tricking them into coming here, now they would just have to come up with a plan for them to reconcile with one another.
Qingyan went to look for Tan Xiu as soon as he left Xiao Chennan’s room.
The both of them hid in the yard as they secretly discussed this matter.
“Should we give Brother Chennan some guidance now? Why don’t we send Vera’s luggage to boss’s room now and say that we are simply putting it in his room temporarily? We do not know whether Brother Chennan will recognize any of her belongings anyway. After that, I will give Xiao O’s WeChat ID to the boss and tell him that Xiao O would like to be friends with him.”
Qingyan made an okay gesture before he said, “Perfect!”
“After that, you should coax boss and convince him to come out for lunch with us. I will take advantage of this opportunity to introduce our newcomer to the boss. At that time, boss will realize that the person that he saw at the studio that day was in fact not Xiao O.”
“Sister Xiuxiu, you are so smart!”
This way, Xiao Chennan would definitely be filled with doubts.
“After that, I will also tell him more about the scene when Vera chose the gift for him and what she does at work daily. I promise that the boss will definitely feel very intrigued and interested.”
As he thought about this, Qingyan could not help but burst out in laughter. This was simply perfect.
“Let’s do that then!”
Qingyan took Vera’s suitcase and laptop bag from Tan Xiu’s hand before he brought it over to Xiao Chennan’s room.
“Brother Chennan, I will be leaving one of the employees’ luggage in your room for the time being. They are still cleaning up her room and the other employees are not in their rooms at this time.”
Xiao Chennan was reading one of the movie scripts on the balcony at this time and he simply replied without looking back at all.
“Okay.”
Wow. This is your wife’s suitcase. Brother Chennan, are you sure you do not want to look at it at all?
Of course, Qingyan did not point at the suitcase to ask Xiao Chennan whether he found it familiar or not.
He could only scratch his head slightly as he intentionally left the luggage right in the middle of the room.
If Xiao Chennan came over here, he would have to push the luggage aside, right? He would definitely notice Vera’s luggage when that time came, right?
Qingyan felt that he was really witty.
After putting the luggage in place, Qingyan began the next stage of his plan. “Brother Chennan, since we are already here, why don’t we have a meal with the employees of the studio so that you can get to know them better? After all, they are all working for you…”
“Okay.”
Xiao Chennan was already in a very calm and relaxed state at this time.
Therefore, he was simply agreeing to everything that Qingyan was saying.
It was done! Hahaha!
Qingyan was very happy inside.
After that, Tan Xiu forwarded Xiao O’s WeChat ID to Xiao Chennan on WeChat as she said, “Brother Chennan, this is Xiao O’s WeChat ID. Xiao O has been wanting to get to know you but Xiao O is a very shy person. It will be Xiao O’s birthday in two days’ time. So, why don’t you give Xiao O a surprise then?”
The entire routine was planned out, step by step.
When Xiao Chennan thought about the fact that Xiao O was the one who bought him the aromatherapy fragrance, he did not think too much about it and he simply added Xiao O as his friend on WeChat.
However, there was no response from the other party at all after Xiao Chennan added the person as a friend.
Was this kid that shy?
…
At this time, Vera was carrying her camera as she started taking pictures on the mountain. She has recently signed up for a photography course online and she felt that this was the perfect opportunity for her to test her skills. Vera was finally completely relaxed as she was faced with this beautiful scenery and landscape.
As soon as she had just finished taking pictures of the landscapes, she suddenly received a message from WeChat.
Vera originally thought that it was a text message from Tan Xiu. After all, she did not have much friends on her new WeChat account. However, when Vera looked at her cell phone, she realized that the person who has added her on WeChat was none other than Xiao Chennan!
Vera began to panic and she could not help but feel a little anxious. Has he already found out about her identity?
No. If he already found out about her identity, Tan Xiu would have given her a call to tell her all about it.
As she thought about this, Vera calmed herself down as she reminded herself not to panic.
After all, she was an employee at Xiao Chennan’s studio. Perhaps, it was only natural for the boss to add his employees as friends on WeChat.
Therefore, after calming herself down, Vera accepted the friend request. After that, she trembled as she typed out a very simple text message: “Brother Chennan!!!”
This kid was really very shy.
Xiao Chennan smiled when he saw the text message and he simply replied: “Yes, that’s me.”
Then?
Vera could not help but laughed out loud as she replied: “You are my idol!”
