"I haven't changed my clothes yet!" As soon as she sat down, Gu Sisi was about to dash off, but was held down.
Both of them were in their pajamas. Fortunately, they were in the car and passers - by outside couldn't see them.
Huo Cheng propped up the small table, opened a bottle of red wine and poured it into the glasses. "It's just the two of us here. What are you worried about?"
Gu Sisi rolled her eyes at the driver. The driver was like a robot, looking straight ahead and driving seriously with a solemn face.
"But who goes on a business trip and takes a flight in pajamas?"
"I do, and so do you!"
"..."
Half an hour later, the plane slowly lifted off. The sound of the propellers grew louder, and the view below became smaller and smaller. The plane had taken off.
Huo Cheng shrugged and raised his eyebrows. "There are clothes on the plane. Do you want to change here?"
Gu Sisi slapped away the hand that was in front of her eyes and said awkwardly, "I don't want to!"
The cabin was very quiet. Gu Sisi stared out of the window for a while. When she looked back, she found that Huo Cheng had his eyes closed and was already asleep.
Presumably he had worked overtime again last night. This man still exuded a mature charm even when he was sound asleep.
Gu Sisi propped her chin on one hand and looked at the clouds outside the window. Before she knew it, she felt sleepy too. She leaned on the seat and dozed off, drooling all the way.
When she opened her eyes again, the plane was landing.
The man beside her was dozing lightly with his eyes closed and had just been woken up by the turbulence. Under his long eyelashes was a straight nose bridge. The halo from outside the window shone on his face, making him look lazy and comfortable.
After they got out of the airport terminal, there were many foreign faces around, with only a few Asian faces here and there.
"Where is this?" Gu Sisi was still completely in the dark until now.
"Switzerland."
As soon as he finished speaking, a black stretch Lincoln stopped in front of them. A man with green pupils and white skin got out of the car and walked straight towards Huo Cheng.
The two of them communicated briefly. Gu Sisi didn't understand a single word.
Finally, she watched as the luggage was carried into the car by the stranger who had just arrived.
Looking at the still a bit dazed and hazy - looking Gu Sisi, Huo Cheng put his arm around her waist. "Get in the car. Let's go to our accommodation first."
The still - sleepy Gu Sisi obediently got in the car. Just ten - plus minutes later, the car stopped.
Gu Sisi got out of the car and looked up at the ancient and magnificent building in front of her. The windows inlaid in the building, one by one, were very Gothic - style, making her feel as if she had come to a castle.
Huo Cheng finished the check - in, looked back at the dazed woman behind him, and led her upstairs.
Someone led the way in front.
"Are you tired?" The man's voice rang in Gu Sisi's ear.
She watched the numbers on the elevator jump. She thought it was quite strange that there was a newly - installed elevator in such an old building, which was quite shocking.
Gu Sisi shook her head. She had slept well just now. She just wasn't quite used to the strange environment yet.
Huo Cheng seemed to be communicating with the person who was leading them. Finally, with a "ding", they were led into a room. The waiter made a "please" gesture and then stood by the door handle until both of them had entered before he prepared to leave.
Huo Cheng nodded, took out a few bills that Gu Sisi didn't recognize from his wallet, and sent the waiter away.
"Do you like the environment here?" Huo Cheng spread out his arms and said to Gu Sisi.
The bright and huge French window was very eye - catching. Gu Sisi noticed it as soon as she came in. She walked to the window to feel the warm sunshine, closed her eyes, and nodded. "Yes, it's very nice."
Huo Cheng walked to her side at some point.
"The man just now complimented you."
Gu Sisi's curiosity was piqued. Her eyes sparkled. "What? What did he say about me?"
Did he notice at a glance that she was a fairy? Or did he see that she was kind and cute?
Huo Cheng pursed his lips at this moment and instead looked out of the window.
"Tell me quickly!" Gu Sisi pulled his arm. How could there be someone so teasing!
Only then did Huo Cheng turn his head to look at her. The warm sun refracted through the glass into his eyes, which seemed to be shining.
He curled his lips and whispered in Gu Sisi's ear, "He complimented you on being good - looking! So, I also observed just now. He's right."
"..."
She shouldn't have expected him to say anything normal.
But because Huo Cheng's breath blew on her earlobe, Gu Sisi's ear turned red. She felt a bit uncomfortable all over. She coughed several times before she recovered.
"Why aren't you talking?" Huo Cheng leaned in.
Gu Sisi shouted in her heart. She turned around and whispered, "Your taste is good."
The gentle breeze blew in, and the white window curtain fluttered. The blue sky and white clouds outside the window were like a flower. Occasionally, a few birds flew by, adding a lot of vitality to the picture and making it extremely vivid.
"Wow, it's so beautiful!" Gu Sisi couldn't help but exclaim.
"If you like it here, we'll stay a few more days."
Gu Sisi didn't take Huo Cheng's words to heart. She just thought that his business trip shouldn't take long, and they wouldn't stay here for long. It might not be bad if he left her alone here.
There was a knock on the door. Gu Sisi turned her head and saw Huo Cheng carrying two big suitcases in from outside.
They should be their luggage.
Just...
"Are we staying in the same room?"
Huo Cheng put Gu Sisi's suitcase beside her and nodded, trying to hold back his smile. "The cooperation partner only arranged one room."
"..." Okay.
She was his fiancée. It was normal for them to stay in the same room. The embarrassing thing was that this relationship was half - true and half - false.
"Do you need anything else to buy? I'm going out. I can bring it back for you." Huo Cheng glanced at the time.
Gu Sisi looked at the big suitcase. To be honest, she didn't know what was inside.
"I don't need anything for the moment." Gu Sisi shook her head.
"If you're tired, rest first and adjust your jet - lag. I'll take you out to play tomorrow." Huo Cheng went to the bathroom to organize his clothes, and then walked out of the room with a straight posture.
Before going out, they looked at each other. Huo Cheng raised his eyebrows at Gu Sisi.
Gu Sisi thought for a long time. Finally, she walked to the bed and lay down. She yawned and said, "Then I'll take a nap first."
"Have a good rest."
Finally, the man left.
Gu Sisi got up from the bed, walked around inside, then walked to the bed and looked at the scenery outside the window. Her hanging heart gradually calmed down.
She had been very tense these days. The work and the rumors had exhausted her. Now that she was in a new environment and relaxed, she felt extremely tired.
When Huo Cheng came back from his outing, he saw Gu Sisi lying crookedly on the sofa, still sleeping.
Huo Cheng gently kissed her on the forehead, picked her up, and put her back on the bed. He gently covered her with a thin blanket. Gu Sisi murmured and adjusted her sleeping position on her own, then continued to sleep soundly.
The gentle breeze outside the window blew her hair. Huo Cheng walked to the window carefully and closed it.
