Huo Fei drove faster and arrived in just over an hour.
He drove the car straight into the innermost exquisite courtyard. It was the most elegant place in the entire resort.
It usually received VIPs.
The three walked into the courtyard, and the service staff immediately came forward to welcome them. The service nodded and said, “Young Master, lunch is ready. Would you like to eat in the indoor or the outdoor restaurant by the lake?”
Huo Fei turned to look at Jiang Ci and Shi Qian. “Sister Qian, where do you want to be?”
Shi Qian thought for a moment.
“Alright. We’re going to the lakeside,” Huo Fei instructed.
“Alright.” The service staff left.
Huo Fei led the two through a corridor and arrived at the lakeside.
A large pavilion was by the lake with a long dining table below.
There was a very comfortable sofa and coffee table on the other side. It was like the three could hold a meeting or a tea party.
“Brother Ci, Sister Qian, please.” Huo Fei looked at the two and smiled.
The two did not stand at the ceremony and directly walked to the dining table to sit down.
Shi Qian faced the lake and stared at the green lake water. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, “This place is not bad.”
Jiang Ci sat beside Shi Qian and looked at her with a hand on his forehead. He smiled and said, “If you like it, come over often in the future.”
The smile on his face momentarily froze as he stared at the faint teeth marks on her fair neck.
Huo Fei didn’t notice Jiang Ci’s unusual behavior and said, “Yes, Sister Qian. If you like it, come over often.”
Shi Qian smiled but didn’t say anything.
Jiang Ci narrowed his eyes and said, “What happened to your neck?”
Shi Qian was stunned before she turned to look at Jiang Ci. “What?”
Jiang Ci glanced at her neck again.
Shi Qian subconsciously reached for her neck.
Then, she remembered that when she left this morning, Shang Sizhan pulled her and kissed her. Then, his lips suddenly slid to her neck and bit her again.
She didn’t feel much pain. She couldn’t believe there would be marks.
‘Shang Sizhan did it on purpose!’
At this moment, Huo Fei and Jiang Ci both looked at her meaningfully.
She put down her hand and said indifferently, “It’s probably a mosquito bite.”
“Hmph!” Jiang Ci snorted.
“This mosquito has a big mouth.”
An unnatural look flashed across Shi Qian’s face as she glared at him. “Shut up.”
The atmosphere instantly fell silent, and it was subtly strange.
Huo Fei looked at the two and moved his lips. In the end, he did not say anything.
The waiter served the tea first.
Shi Qian picked up her cup of tea and sipped.
Jiang Ci immediately picked it up and took a big sip. It was a little hot.
He held it in and didn’t spit it out. His face was a little red.
A moment later, the service staff served the dishes one after another.
“Hey, let’s eat first. It won’t taste good if it gets cold,” said Huo Fei.
Jiang Ci picked up his chopsticks and didn’t move.
He suddenly said, “You have to think clearly? The Shang family is very complicated. That’s the most ferocious wolf den, you…
“There might not be a result. In the end, you’ll likely be the one who gets injured.”
There was no anger or impatience in his tone, only concern.
Shi Qian understood that Jiang Ci was concerned about her.
She couldn’t know how far she could go with Shang Sizhan or the future.
However, she knew she couldn’t reject Shang Sizhan and leave him now.
She had been in the King’s Garden for four years. She was used to being by his side. She was used to seeing his eyes, hearing his voice, his breathing, his gentleness, and his dominance..
