Yun Shu lay on the window sill, holding her chin with one hand and reaching out with the other, trying to feel the real temperature outside.
The air conditioner was always on in the villa, maintaining the most comfortable temperature and humidity. After staying there for so long, she almost forgot what season it was.
At the end of August, the last wave of high temperatures has passed, and autumn is coming.
"Be good," Aunt Qiu called her at the door of the kitchen, "the angelica chicken soup is ready, come here and have a few sips."
"good--"
She walked over slowly, picked up the small bowl of chicken soup she had prepared, and drank it in several sips while enduring the smell of herbs.
At this moment, Assistant Zuo came to the door again and brought her a box of fruit.
"Miss Yun, this is a gift from Mr. Qi. Mr. Zhou asked me to bring it over for you to try."
Opening the box, there were two neat layers of mangoes inside, six in total. Each mango lived in a single room and was packaged very nicely.
The mango has a perfect skin, half of the peel is bright red, and the small label on it says "Child of the Sun".
Aunt Qiu also ran over to take a look and was stunned. She has been an aunt in a wealthy family for many years, so she has some understanding of these expensive things.
These mangoes are not cheap.
Yun Shu's attention was not on the mango: "Mr. Xiao Qi, is he the Qi Zhou that Tu Yin mentioned?"
"Yes, the Qi family is involved in the chain fresh food business. These are the last batch of children of the sun with the most perfect appearance this year."
This kind of expensive fruit is usually ordered as a gift as soon as it comes on the market, and ordinary people cannot buy it.
But Yun Shu didn't understand. She hadn't eaten mangoes yet. Seeing the four words "son of the sun" that symbolized fame was equivalent to seeing "the light of the village", and she felt that it was so exaggerated that it made people a little embarrassed.
"Then help me say thank you to him." I don't know who Qi Zhou is from the two audience members I saw before.
Assistant Zuo agreed, and she asked again: "When will Zhou Jingmo come back?"
"Come back?" Assistant Zuo asked strangely, "Do you know that Mr. Zhou went on a business trip abroad?"
After Zhou Jingmo received the news, he took several vice presidents of the company to leave temporarily. He had not been here during the trip, and only called him to inform him.
Yun Shu paused for a moment imperceptibly, looking at Assistant Zuo's expression, feeling that he was going to press on and ask her what she knew in the next second.
"I'm talking about coming back here," she also frowned strangely, "He went abroad? Is it far away? When will he come back?"
She had never looked forward to Zhou Jingmo's return. Assistant Zuo looked at her and thought that she finally had the consciousness of a lover.
"Maybe about a week. Do you have anything to talk to Mr. Zhou?"
"Yeah. It's too boring to stay here. I want him to take me out." She followed the next words smoothly, and the lies were mixed with truth, and she almost believed them.
She knew that no one but Zhou Jingmo himself could make the decision on this matter. As expected, Assistant Zuo said awkwardly: "You will have to discuss this when Mr. Zhou comes back."
She showed an unhappy expression at the right time, and sat back on the single sofa in a sulky manner, hiding away from anyone.
The left assistant didn't stay long and left quickly.
Yun Shu stared at the figure walking out and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.
Her understanding of the world is divided between day and night. During the day, she is just a person in a glass dome who understands nothing, but at night, she is quietly exploring the truth and falsehood of the world, like a student being tutored alone by a teacher.
No matter how careful you are, the disguise may not be complete.
...It seems that it is better to mention Zhou Jingmo less, as the secret will be revealed easily if he mentions it.
After lunch, Yun Shu wanted to take a nap.
Aunt Qiu said that she would make a dessert for her with the mangoes she had received. She had never eaten any fruit desserts before, so she was looking forward to it. When she went upstairs, she thought seriously about whether she could catch up with the dessert after half an hour's sleep.
When it comes out of the oven.
If we count half an hour from now, then according to her recent nap habit, she will fall asleep within five minutes.
For five minutes, it’s not impossible to lie down on the bed, cover yourself with a quilt, get into a good posture, close your eyes and self-hypnotize.
But she had planned everything, and as soon as she lay down, she found that the button contact on the mini radio was shining, flashing and blinking. If you didn't pay attention, you couldn't see it clearly, but if you paid attention, you couldn't ignore it.
out of battery?
The five-minute plan to fall asleep was interrupted. Yun Shu hesitated for two seconds between "press it and leave it alone" and "leave it alone." She frowned and turned on the contact switch, shaking it.
The red light disappeared, and a familiar magnetic voice came from the other side.
"Huh? No nap?"
She lay back down heavily and said with a dull face, "I was going to sleep."
"Did I bother you? I originally wanted to introduce you to private jets, but now I think I might as well forget it."
"……you say."
Gu Xingze: "Don't you want to take a lunch break? You can listen to it after you wake up. I have to stay on the plane for more than ten hours."
Flying in the sky for more than ten hours? What would it feel like?
She couldn't imagine it and wanted him to talk quickly.
"It's okay. I want to wake up during my lunch break now just in time to catch up with the fruit dessert made by Aunt Qiu. I haven't eaten it yet and want to try it. But you can eat it later and then go to sleep." She whispered.
"Okay." Gu Xingze's tone remained unchanged and he began to introduce the private jet.
"Then let me tell you quickly? I won't delay you going downstairs to eat dessert. Let's start with the plane. If it takes you three hours to walk from your hometown to the county seat and one hour by car, then at the speed of the plane it will only take you a blink of an eye.
And it takes twelve hours to fly from Haicheng to the United States."
She said "Wow" softly.
"An unimaginable distance."
"It's not that unimaginable. Nowadays, half of the ways to travel long distances are by plane. But taking someone else's car is not as good as owning your own car. Taking a public plane requires choosing a time, waiting at the airport, and there are too many people on the plane.
many.
Therefore, if you have some money and can find a way to buy it, you can apply for a route and have your own private jet, just for yourself, and you can leave whenever you want. There are not many seats on the plane, and the space is spacious, so you can work and eat.
You can lie down and sleep, even keep pets, play billiards, and hold small parties inside, just like on the ground."
When he said this, out of sight of Yun Shu, Gu Xingze was watching the life assistant take out his clothes and hang them up.
As soon as they land, these clothes will be sent to the reserved hotel intact, where they will be taken care of by a dedicated person and then put into his wardrobe.
For people with sufficient financial means, "buying something locally" is far less convenient. After all, it is just a service that can be enjoyed by spending money.
The assistant was arranging a belt. He turned his head away from the communicator and lowered his voice slightly and said, "No need to tidy up. Let's go out first."
The life assistant put down her things and went to the back. When she met Assistant Lin who was about to go in, she whispered: "Brother Lin, don't go in yet. Mr. Gu is on the phone with someone."
The voice is gentle and magnetic.
"Cooperator? I was about to..." Before he could finish his words, Assistant Lin looked at the assistant's winking expression and showed a smile that seemed surprised and understanding.
