Chapter 161 Can this happen?
Qin Zhuyu had never expected that Zhao Jinyu also had a delicate and meticulous side. She accompanied Ye Wanqing, while he carefully considered Li Mingzhi.
The car was silent and no one broke the tranquility.
As a veteran journalist, Qin Zhuyu is always good at skillfully guiding the direction of topics.
She took a sip of mineral water, swallowed it carefully, and then turned the topic to the hot spring villa ski resort. "Young Master Zhao chose a very unique place. Although this villa has only been open for a short time, it has already become famous online last year."
When the light ahead turned red, Zhao Jinyu glanced at her calmly through the rearview mirror and replied softly, "It was highly recommended by a friend."
"I've heard about it a long time ago and always wanted to check it out at the Hot Spring Villa Ski Resort, but unfortunately I always missed the chance. It's really thanks to Wanqing that I can finally fulfill my wish this time."
Qin Zhuyu was smiling and eloquent, and Zhao Jinyu was also very witty. The atmosphere in the car gradually became harmonious. Even Ye Wanqing occasionally interjected a few words, and there was constant laughter.
Soon, the green light came on, and Qin Zhuyu changed the topic in time and instead shared her recent interesting stories with Ye Wanqing.
The journey was not far, and after more than an hour, they arrived at the magnificent gate of the Hot Spring Villa Ski Resort.
Zhao Jinyu drove straight into the villa and stopped steadily at the door of the hotel.
The four of them quickly completed the check-in procedures and went back to their rooms to rest for a while.
Zhao Jinyu had already booked four adjacent private rooms, namely Li Mingzhi's room, Zhao Jinyu's room, Ye Wanqing's room, and Qin Zhuyu's room.
Qin Zhuyu returned to the room, put down her luggage, and then knocked on Ye Wanqing's door impatiently.
"Wanqing, what are you busy with?" Qin Zhuyu asked with a smile.
In fact, Ye Wanqing simply hung up the clothes in the suitcase, and when she saw Qin Zhuyu, she invited her to sit down.
Qin Zhuyu sat on the soft sofa and looked around. "Mr. Zhao is so considerate. The room he booked for us must be very expensive. The view from the balcony is breathtaking with its beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains."
Ye Wanqing handed her a cup of warm milk: "He never values these things."
Qin Zhuyu took the milk and chuckled, "Not valuing money and being attentive are two different things. Look at the position of your room. On the left is him, and on the right is me. Humph, if he's not interested in you, I'd be the first to disbelieve it."
Ye Wanqing pinched her nose helplessly: "He and I had some connections when we were kids. My family lived across from his grandparents' house. When my parents were still alive, they would occasionally pick me up and drop me off at school."
"So, you two are childhood sweethearts?" Qin Zhuyu's eyes flashed with gossip.
Ye Wanqing was a little amused and confused: "He doesn't live with his grandparents."
"Then you must have had some interactions when you were kids, right?" Qin Zhuyu asked curiously, biting the straw.
"I've only seen him a few times. I was too young at that time and my memory is vague." Ye Wanqing answered truthfully.
Qin Zhuyu looked skeptical: "Then you guys are still going skiing together?"
Ye Wanqing smiled slightly and did not hide it: "During the Chinese New Year, he went back to his grandparents' house and we met by chance."
"Oh~" Qin Zhuyu looked at Ye Wanqing meaningfully and smiled ambiguously.
Ye Wanqing tapped her head gently: "Don't let your imagination run wild."
She smiled and glanced at her phone screen, which showed a message from Zhao Jinyu: "Are you ready? Let's go for a walk around."
Qin Zhuyu stood up from the sofa: "I'm ready, let's go, the scenery here is picturesque, and it's sunny today, it's a good time for a walk."
"Okay." Ye Wanqing picked up the handbag at hand, left the room with Qin Zhuyu, and stepped into this picturesque scenery.
As the four of them stepped out of the room, they saw Zhao Jinyu and Li Mingzhi standing leisurely in the corridor. Zhao Jinyu saw them and suggested politely, "There's a lavender field nearby. It's said to be picturesque. Why don't we go there for a walk?"
"I've heard that too. Mr. Zhao is really thoughtful!" Qin Zhuyu praised him highly.
Zhao Jinyu turned to Ye Wanqing with a smile in her eyes: "Wanqing, your garden is very well maintained, especially those roses, which are really pleasing to the eye."
Ye Wanqing smiled brightly: "I never expected that the flowers would be so abundant this year."
Li Mingzhi looked at Ye Wanqing, a hint of curiosity flashing in his eyes: "Miss Ye seems to have a special liking for gardening?"
Ye Wanqing nodded slightly: "Yes, I love their quiet yet vigorous vitality."
"Growing flowers does require great patience. Miss Ye is such a thoughtful person." Li Mingzhi praised sincerely.
Qin Zhuyu jokingly said, "Mr. Li's vision is truly unique. I've personally witnessed Wanqing's patience; no one can match it!"
The four of them walked into the elevator with laughter and the atmosphere became more harmonious.
Qin Zhuyu inadvertently noticed that Li Mingzhi's eyes frequently fell on Ye Wanqing, and she couldn't help but look at Zhao Jinyu.
Their eyes happened to meet Zhao Jinyu's, who nodded slightly, seemingly not noticing Li Mingzhi's gaze.
The elevator door slowly opened, and Zhao Jinyu gentlemanly pressed the door-opening button, motioning the ladies to go first.
Ye Wanqing and Qin Zhuyu were the first to walk out of the elevator and embarked on their journey to the lavender fields.
When they walked to the hotel lobby, they unexpectedly met Qin Huai who was talking to Lin Xuan.
Seeing Qin Huai, Qin Zhuyu was slightly surprised: "Brother, why are you here too?"
Qin Huai also did not expect to meet Ye Wanqing here, and his eyes involuntarily turned to Lin Xuan.
Just as he expected, Lin Xuan's expression instantly turned indifferent. His gaze wandered between Ye Wanqing and Zhao Jinyu. A complex light flashed in his dark eyes, and finally fixed on Ye Wanqing. He smiled slightly: "What a coincidence."
Ye Wanqing was also surprised: "It's quite a coincidence indeed."
Qin Zhuyu muttered quietly beside him: "What's the coincidence? It's obviously——"
Before Qin Zhuyu finished speaking, Ye Wanqing heard a familiar voice: "Boss Lin."
It’s Zhao Yu.
Not only did Zhao Yu come, but his assistant also came with him.
As soon as Zhao Yu stepped out of the car, he saw Lin Xuan, Ye Wanqing and their group from afar.
Along the way, he was wondering why Lin Xuan suddenly changed the location of the company's team-building event and participated in it personally.
At this moment, seeing Ye Wanqing, Zhao Yu suddenly understood.
Ye Wanqing and Zhao Jinyu came here for fun, while Lin Xuan came here to create a "chance encounter". Team building was undoubtedly a perfect excuse.
After understanding, Zhao Yu realized that Lin Xuan's current situation was a little awkward.
As an assistant for many years, he naturally knows how to resolve awkwardness.
Although he only heard fragments of Qin Zhuyu's words, Zhao Yu could already guess what she wanted to say next.
He decisively interrupted Qin Zhuyu and walked up to Lin Xuan: "Mr. Lin, Mr. Qin, have you just arrived? We just arrived too."
Lin Xuan glanced at Zhao Yu calmly and said, "We just arrived too. Please go check in first."
Seeing this, Qin Zhuyu was puzzled: "Zhao Yu, why are you here too?"
Zhao Yu smiled at Qin Zhuyu and said, "Ms. Qin, our department is having a team-building activity here this weekend."
Qin Zhuyu looked at Qin Huai in confusion, and Qin Huai looked back calmly: "Why are you looking at me? You left so fast this morning that I didn't even have time to tell you!"
Qin Zhuyu curled her lips. Although she still had doubts in her heart, she didn't say anything more: "Okay, then you guys do the team building, and we'll play our own games."
Zhao Jinyu and Lin Xuan greeted each other politely. Although they were smiling, there was a subtle contest in their eyes.
Sometimes, the competition between men can be tacitly understood with just a glance.
