The Shangcheng Resort is located in a natural scenic area on the outskirts of Beijing. Nestled against the mountains and beside the water, the scenery is beautiful, and it also contains some ruins of an ancient royal palace.
When Lin Qiao arrived at the resort in the Bai family’s luxury car, she was immediately stunned by the magnificent architecture.
Carved railings, jade steps, red walls, and golden tiles—if she hadn’t known that it was a resort, she would have thought that she was at the entrance to the Forbidden City.
When they arrived, Tan Siming was already waiting at the resort’s lobby entrance.
He looks somewhat different from his online photos; he lacks some of his sharpness and possesses a more refined and dignified air.
He is about 1.8 meters tall, with fair and delicate skin, handsome yet with a touch of androgyny, and he appears humble and gentle.
“Miss Bai…”
He saw Bai Mengying get out of the car and waved in their direction. He stopped when he saw there was another person behind her.
“And this is?”
“This is Lin Qiao, my roommate. I heard your resort has a great environment, so I asked her to come along. You don’t mind, do you?”
Bai Mengying was wearing a beige fitted knitted long dress today, with a light yellow cashmere coat with a fur collar. Her long, slightly wavy hair was draped over her shoulders. Her soft, gentle voice made her look like a graceful and elegant lady.
This morning, Lin Qiao had been saying that while this mature style was beautiful, would Tan Siming, who was only in his early twenties, really like this older sister style? Bai Mengying had already inquired and found that Tan Siming didn’t like younger women; he only liked older women. This outfit she was wearing was specially prepared for him.
“Of course not! Let me show you around.” Tan Siming smiled at them.
Although the resort’s exterior is an imitation of ancient architecture, the interior is a combination of classical and modern styles.
After giving them a brief tour, Tan Siming stopped outside the hot spring area.
“Actually, besides the hot springs, there’s also a mountain god statue on the cliff behind the mountain that’s worth seeing. Unfortunately, the snow is too thick to get to the back mountain, so we can only see it when the weather warms up and the snow melts.” Tan Siming explained to them politely.
“Then let’s wait until the weather warms up and the snow melts before we trouble Young Master Tan to be our tour guide again!” Bai Mengying said, half-jokingly and half-flirtatiously.
Tan Siming was amused by her unabashed directness. He simply took out his phone and switched to selfie mode.
“Would this tourist friend like to take a picture together to commemorate our visit as a souvenir?”
Bai Mengying walked confidently into his camera lens, tilted her head, and made a heart shape with her fingers.
Lin Qiao tactfully took a few steps back, very pleased with Tan Siming’s helpfulness.
When Xiao Bai was with Xie Xunwen, although it seemed on the surface that Xie Xunwen was being manipulated by her, Lin Qiao knew that Xiao Bai was actually trying to match his pace.
Xie Xunwen is like a still pond, calm and serene, yet unfathomably deep. Throwing a stone into it will only create a brief splash before the water returns to calm amidst the ripples. While Bai Mengying experienced fleeting happiness with him, it was mostly draining. A healthy relationship shouldn’t be like this.
“I hope this time Xiao Bai and Tan Siming will have a good outcome.” Lin Qiao sincerely hoped.
“They won’t have a future together.” Su Zhengxing, who hadn’t spoken until now, suddenly said in her mind.
“Why?” Lin Qiao asked, puzzled.
Lin Qiao didn’t know Tan Siming, but Su Zhengxing knew very well that Tan Siming was the second male lead in this absurd novel world, Shen Ruxing’s number one simp, the kind who fawned over her to the extreme. His humble and gentle appearance was all an act; in fact, he was a complete yandere at heart.
