Chapter 891: Xinya, Would You Like to Go to Russia for a Vacation?
Si Yiyan had appeared in Wen Xinya’s life more frequently as Old Mr. Mo’s student. However… they were still keeping their relationship a secret.
Although eighteen was a suitable age for dating, it was still too young of an age to get into a relationship in the eyes of many. Besides, Wen Xinya had just taken her final examinations and their relationship would become a scandal if it were to be exposed.
Most importantly, Si Yiyan was worried that she would give others the chance to attack her reputation because of how much attention she was enjoying now. Hence, he decided to gradually appear beside her before slowly revealing their relationship.
Wen Xinya leaned against Si Yiyan while eating some grapes that tasted fresh with a perfect balance of sweet and sour. Wen Xinya was extremely delighted.
Si Yiyan was busy flipping through the pages of the latest issue of Poise Magazine and reading the reports related to Wen Xinya.
Wen Xinya giggled and said, “You’ve been staring at the magazine all day!”
Due to the fact that it was her first time receiving an interview, Si Yiyan had personally screened the content of the interview as well as the questions that she would have to answer. Even her makeup had to be approved by him, and he was also the one who had picked the jewelry and accessories that she had donned during the photo shoot. Otherwise… how could the issue have such a successful response? It was all Si Yiyan’s credit. However, Wen Xinya took credit for it because the staff at Poise Magazine thought that she was the one who drove the sales.
Si Yiyan was reading each and every word carefully. “The questions are very pertinent and your answers are refreshing. Your makeup is unique and the clothes suit you well too. The photos turned out to be beautiful. Turns out Poise Magazine is really reputable.”
They could not afford to make any blunders at all because their business image and reputation were at stake. Besides, others could pinpoint Wen Xinya and find fault with her if she were to make any mistakes in answering the questions. Hence, he took it rather seriously.
Wen Xinya burst into laughter and said, “You’ve already read the article thrice and repeated those words thrice. Aren’t you sick of it at all!?!”
Si Yiyan finally put the magazine down and peeled some grapes before feeding them to her. “I just wanted to see how outstanding my girl really is.”
The content that Poise Magazine covered about Wen Xinya was close to the truth.
Wen Xinya burst into laughter and moved a grape to Si Yiyan’s mouth using her lips. “This is a reward for you.”
This time, Si Yiyan had put in the most effort in helping her prepare the interview. He had always taken the issues involving her rather seriously.
Si Yiyan opened his mouth and sucked on her lips together with the grape.
His mouth was filled with the sweet and tangy juices of the grapes and he nibbled on her sweet lips gently.
After finishing the grapes, Si Yiyan chuckled into her ear and whispered, “We ought to share everything.”
Wen Xinya rested her head on his shoulder, the sweetness still lingering on her taste buds. The tangy juices made her salivate and she said, “Soon, I’ll be able to eat the grapes harvested in Lishan Mansion.”
Wen Xinya was looking forward to tasting the grapes on the vine outside the window. The large bunches of grapes glowed under the sunlight. There were three types of grapes, yellow ones, green ones, as well as purple ones. Due to the fact that they had been tended to, they looked aesthetically pleasing and Wen Xinya was certain that they would taste delicious.
Si Yiyan looked in her direction and grinned widely. “They’ll probably be ripe enough for consumption in a week’s time!”
Wen Xinya said, “There are so many grapes. We definitely won’t be able to finish them once they ripen. When the time comes, we must send some to Grampy. Grapes contain lots of vitamins and amino acids that are good for health. Grampy should eat more of them. I must give Grandpa some too, and I must not forget my friends. I have to keep some for myself too. I’ll leave them in the fridge and turn the remaining ones into wine. Once they’re fermented, we can taste them together!”
Wen Xinya was filled with joy at the thought of harvesting the grapes. She suddenly realized that she could expand the grape plantation and harvest more grapes.
Si Yiyan listened quietly with an affectionate smile on his face. He stared at the grapes on the vines and thought to himself that her plants were probably not going to work out, though he did not want to be a wet blanket.
Wen Xinya smiled and said gleefully, “It’s settled, then.”
She and Si Yiyan had been tending to the vineyard themselves. When it was time to cut the vines, she even especially read up on books regarding the agriculture of grapes. She obviously had to share the fruit of her labor with her loved ones.
Si Yiyan asked softly, “Xinya, would you like to go on a vacation to Russia?”
Wen Xinya finally had a summer break and she obviously shouldn’t waste it on staying in the city. Hence, going on summer vacation was absolutely necessary.
Wen Xinya’s eyes lit up and she asked, “Are you taking me to Russia?”
Russia could be considered Si Yiyan’s second hometown. He was born in China and raised in Italy. After staying in China for three years when he was seven years old, he moved to Russia for the remaining years of his adolescence.
She had always wanted to got to Russia and take a look at the place that he had grown up in. Sometimes, she could not believe how refined and well-mannered Si Yiyan was. Russian men had always given her the impression of being boorish and unruly. Yet, Si Yiyan did not pick up any of those habits and mannerisms despite having lived there for numerous years.
Si Yiyan chuckled and answered, “Yeah! There are some matters regarding Lucifer that I have to attend to. Hence, I’m planning to take you along for some fun and tour around Russia.”
The Ivanov Family had become a thing of the past, and he possessed a substantial amount of power in Russia. Hence, he definitely wouldn’t be afraid of anything else and could take Wen Xinya there for a trip without any worries.
Besides, he had planned this vacation for a long time, just so he could have some alone time with Wen Xinya.
Extremely thrilled, Wen Xinya exclaimed, “Alright, alright! When will we be setting off?”
Wen Xinya was a little excited. Although Si Yiyan rarely took her on vacations, he would often give her a huge surprise and an eyeopener like the auction in Nantong.
Si Yiyan rubbed her nose affectionately and said, “Delegate your tasks to your subordinates in the next two days, lest your work gets in the way of us having an enjoyable time.”
Wen Xinya was over the moon. “I put in so much effort in learning Russian, I can finally put it to good use this time. Si Yiyan, you’re wonderful.”
Wen Xinya giggled and stuffed a grape into his mouth.
Si Yiyan sucked her fingers and kissed it gently with a look of affection. “You still owe me a huge amount of debts. I’m thinking of how you should repay me…”
Wen Xinya wished she could slap her own mouth! She had touched a sore spot!
In order to learn Russian, she had continuously been taking on “loans” and she now owed him a startling amount of “debts”.
