Chapter 275: Chapter 275 Su Luo’s Cunning Plan
Xia Yi’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Su Luo. "You... you are taking me and Nian Nian with you?"
Without giving Xia Yi the chance to decline, Su Luo picked up Nian Nian and walked out. "Let’s go, Nian Nian, Daddy will take you on a ’business trip’!"
"Yay, yay!" Nian Nian danced excitedly in Su Luo’s arms.
Xia Yi watched Su Luo’s retreating figure, her gaze slightly complex.
But since Nian Nian had already gone with Su Luo, could she not follow?
"Wait for me to pack some clothes." Xia Yi quickly gathered some belongings and followed them out.
This time, Su Luo’s trip to Yiling County in the southwestern region was not just with Xia Yi and Nian Nian, Zhou Ye was accompanying them as well.
After getting off the plane, Su Luo had Zhou Ye rent a car and drive to their destination, Yiling County.
It was already evening when they arrived at Yiling County.
"Mr. Su, should we stay in the county seat overnight, or drive through the night?" Zhou Ye asked Su Luo after their arrival at Yiling County.
"Let’s stay in the county seat for the night and experience the local customs," Su Luo said with a smile. "It’s quite distinctive here."
Of course, Su Luo had his own plans.
He had already noticed Xia Yi’s deliberate distance keeping, which was not what he wanted to see. The reason he had brought Xia Yi and Nian Nian on this trip was to cultivate their relationship.
Yiling County, known for its jade production and as the home of a nationally renowned scenic spot, was quite prosperous despite its remote location.
The developed tourism industry meant that clothing, food, lodging, and transportation were all convenient.
Thus, it was quite easy for Su Luo and his party to find a high-end hotel.
"Zhou Ye, it’s the peak tourist season, so go book the hotel now to avoid a shortage of rooms," Su Luo said right after Zhou Ye parked the car.
Zhou Ye immediately understood, a mysterious smile appearing on his face as he swiftly walked to the hotel reception.
"Though it is the peak tourist season, the hotel prices are still quite steep, so it doesn’t seem very crowded. We should still have rooms available, right?" Xia Yi said as she got out of the car and lifted Nian Nian.
"Better safe than sorry," Su Luo said, carrying the bags for Xia Yi and Nian Nian as they walked to the hotel lobby.
By the time they reached the reception, Zhou Ye was already booking the rooms. He turned to Su Luo and Xia Yi, "Mr. Su, we’ve arrived a bit late. There are only two king-size rooms left."
Su Luo sent a pleased look at Zhou Ye, who seemed to understand his intentions and handled the task reliably.
"Only two rooms left?" Xia Yi looked somewhat astonished. They needed three rooms for their group. How could it be such a coincidence that only two rooms were left?
The receptionist cooperated by saying, "Sorry, our other rooms have all been booked, with just two king-size rooms available."
"Mommy, that’s just perfect! Uncle Zhou Ye gets one room, and we get the other," Nian Nian, who was experiencing this kind of place for the first time, was very excited.
"But..." Xia Yi’s expression changed slightly.
Although Su Luo was still nominally pretending to be Nian Nian’s father, he was not single now but engaged to Lin Ruoxi; naturally, she could no longer let Su Luo share a room with her and Nian Nian. Otherwise, how would that be fair to Lin Ruoxi?
"Let’s just take the two rooms, settle down, and then get something to eat," Su Luo said at that moment.
Xia Yi hesitated, her mouth opening as if to speak, but ultimately she said nothing.
Upon reaching the upstairs rooms.
Su Luo carried Xia Yi and Nian Nian’s luggage into the room.
Xia Yi looked at Su Luo, hesitated for a moment, and finally spoke, "Su Luo, I will explain the situation to Nian Nian. Tonight, you should..."
Su Luo knew what she was about to say.
She definitely wanted him to stay with Zhou Ye.
There was no way Su Luo would agree.
He had Zhou Ye speak with the receptionist earlier in order to share a room with Xia Yi. If he wanted to win over Xia Yi, he needed to be thick-skinned.
Before she could finish her sentence, Su Luo picked up Nian Nian and used this as an opportunity to interrupt her, "Nian Nian, do you want to stay with mommy tonight, or do you want to stay with daddy?"
"I want to live with both Mommy and Daddy," Nian Nian said affirmatively.
Suddenly, Nian Nian seemed puzzled, "Aren’t Mommy and Daddy living together?"
"Of course," Su Luo gently tickled Nian Nian’s nose. "How can Mommy and Daddy be apart? We must be with Nian Nian. Our family will never be separated, okay?"
Nian Nian smiled very happily, "Yay, yay, I can sleep with Mommy and Daddy again."
The conversation between Su Luo and Nian Nian effectively settled the matter.
Xia Yi was dumbfounded next to them.
Had she been asked?
If this had been in the past, she wouldn’t have refused.
But now it was different, Su Luo already had a fiancée. She could pretend to be Su Luo to make Nian Nian happy, and she had already explained this to the Lin Family, but if there were anything like sharing a bed again with Su Luo, that would be too ambiguous.
How could she do that to Lin Ruoxi?
She couldn’t do such a thing.
"Su Luo, we can’t," Xia Yi hurriedly said.
"Mommy, what can’t we do?" Nian Nian turned around to look at Xia Yi, confused.
Xia Yi was instantly at a loss for words.
How was she supposed to explain this to Nian Nian?
There was no way to explain.
"It’s just... Daddy has something to do tonight, so he can’t stay with us," Xia Yi tried to explain to Nian Nian.
"Daddy, what do you have to do?" Nian Nian looked at Su Luo, somewhat disappointed. After all, Su Luo didn’t spend much time with her, and Nian Nian was very attached to the little time she could spend with him.
"Mommy got it wrong, Daddy has nothing to do tonight, and will be with Nian Nian all night," Su Luo said, smiling, as if he hadn’t noticed the look Xia Yi gave him.
"Yay! Yay!" Nian Nian immediately became excited again.
Xia Yi: "..."
After a moment, Su Luo whispered to Xia Yi, "I have so little time to be with Nian Nian, don’t let her down."
Xia Yi’s lips moved, but in the end, she said nothing, seemingly consenting to Su Luo’s decision.
With a secret smile, Su Luo took a brief rest.
Afterward, Su Luo took Xia Yi and Nian Nian, and called Zhou Ye to leave the hotel together to look for food.
"I looked it up online, this restaurant is very characteristic of the local area, extremely popular, and often requires queueing and waiting."
Xia Yi had found a distinctive restaurant online and led Su Luo and the others there.
True enough.
They arrived precisely at mealtime, when the restaurant was bursting with popularity, not only fully seated but also with many people queueing outside, waiting.
"Mr. Su, shall I spend some extra money to cut in line?" Zhou Ye asked Su Luo when he saw the queue.
"I think we shouldn’t," Xia Yi said. "Everyone is waiting in line patiently; why should we seek special treatment?"
Having the same thought as Xia Yi, Su Luo immediately nodded, "It won’t be a long wait; let’s queue patiently."
Fortunately, indeed they did not wait long, only about twenty minutes, and then it was their turn.
"Finally, we can eat," said Nian Nian, extra happy in Su Luo’s arms.
However, just as Su Luo and his group were about to enter the restaurant, a man in black stopped them: "Excuse me, but our young master has distinguished guests to entertain. Please wait for the next round before entering."
