Chapter 275 Seaside Villa
"If you are tired, you can take a break. By the way, Brother Jingyi, if you are tired, let someone else drive." Su Siyi cast a concerned look at Jingyi who was sitting in the driver's seat and preparing to start the car, and warned him earnestly, her eyes revealing care and worry for him, fearing that he would tire himself out because of his stubbornness.
"I'm not tired. This is a pretty easy drive." Jing Yi waved his hand nonchalantly, a confident smile plastered on his face. He gazed at everyone through the rearview mirror with a determined look, as if to say that this was nothing to be afraid of. He expertly fastened his seatbelt, his hands firmly gripping the steering wheel, his foot lightly pressing the accelerator, and the car slowly pulled out of the parking space, steadily heading in the designated direction.
"If you're tired, just change someone else." Nangong Jingming frowned slightly. Although his tone was still cold, his concern and love for Jingyi was clearly hidden behind the coldness.
He looked through the car window at the street scene that was constantly receding outside the window. He seemed careless, but in fact he was always paying attention to the movements in the driver's seat. As long as Jing Yi showed any signs of fatigue, he would immediately remind him.
"I'm really not tired, Boss, you need to show me the way." Jing Yi chuckled and cleverly changed the subject. He looked at Nangong Jingming with a look of dependence and trust. He knew that Nangong Jingming was quite familiar with the surrounding area. With him showing the way, this trip would definitely go much smoother.
"Just use the navigation system. Moon Bay. I'll show you the way once we get there," Nangong Jingming, having already carefully studied the route on his phone, said confidently to Jingyi. His fingers swished across the screen, sending the coordinates of Moon Bay to the car's navigation system. Then, he leaned back in his seat, his gaze fixed on the navigation interface, ready to guide Jingyi.
"Okay." Jing Yi did as he was told. He typed "Moon Bay" into the car's navigation system, randomly selected a relevant location, and then slammed the accelerator. The car shot out like an arrow, zipping along the wide road. For a moment, the car was silent, the only sound being the steady roar of the engine and the occasional voice prompts from the navigation system. Everyone was preoccupied with their own thoughts: nervousness, anticipation, and worry. Some glanced out the window, others stared at the navigation system, eager to reach their destination as quickly as possible.
After a while of speeding along, the car finally arrived near Moon Bay. Nangong Jingming sat up straight, his eyes fixed on the ever-changing scenery outside the window, and from time to time he uttered precise directions: "Turn right at the next intersection, slow down, and pay attention to the road signs."
"Drive another two hundred meters, there is a small road on the left, turn into it." Jing Yize followed the instructions attentively, holding the steering wheel steadily with both hands and switching the accelerator and brake flexibly with his feet. Under his control, the car shuttled steadily on the slightly remote and complicated path.
"We're here!" A hint of joy flashed in Nangong Jingming's eyes. He raised his hand and pointed to an open area in front of him and said loudly.
When Jing Yi heard this, he immediately stepped on the brakes firmly. The car slowly stopped, the body of the car shook slightly, and it stopped steadily on the side of the road.
"Siyi is here!" Nangong Jingming unbuckled his seat belt gently, moved sideways to Su Siyi, reached out his hand and gently rocked her who had fallen asleep, his voice as gentle as coaxing a child to sleep, and called softly.
"Oh." Su Siyi opened her eyes drowsily, a hint of sleepiness still lingering in them. She raised her hand to rub her eyes, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses. After seeing the person in front of her clearly, she pulled an apologetic smile at the corner of her mouth and said, "Oh, I actually fell asleep. I'm sorry."
Nangong Jingming had already gotten out of the car, walked quickly around to her side, opened the door for her, and at the same time, considerately extended his hand to block the door to prevent her from accidentally hitting her head when she stood up. "This is Moon Bay, the scenery is beautiful. But why is there no one here!" Su Siyi stepped out of the car and looked up. She saw a vast ocean in front of her. The water was shimmering in the afterglow of the setting sun, like countless tiny pieces of gold flashing and jumping. The shore was covered with green grass, swaying in the wind, dotted with unknown wild flowers, colorful and beautiful. But looking around, she found that such a large place was deserted and strangely quiet, which made her feel puzzled.
"Maybe it's too late. They've all left. Look, it's almost dark." Nangong Jingming looked up at the sun, which had already set, mostly below the horizon. The afterglow cast a long shadow on his figure, casting a long shadow on the grass. He squinted slightly, feeling the cool breeze on his cheeks, and spoke with a touch of emotion. His eyes revealed a regret for this fleeting beauty, as well as a cherishment for the tranquility before him.
"It's true. It's almost dark. No matter how beautiful the scenery is, it's no longer suitable for admiring it." Su Siyi folded her arms, tilted her head slightly upward, and sighed softly at the gorgeous yet fading sunset glow on the horizon. There was a hint of regret in her tone, but her eyes still revealed an inexplicable curiosity and desire to explore this place. She wondered what secrets this mysterious Moon Bay held that had prompted the system to specifically issue a task for her to sign in.
"System, sign in." Su Siyi called the system silently in her heart, her tone firm and with some expectation, as if she was talking to a mysterious old friend, waiting for it to respond.
"Ding, check-in successful, reward: a seaside villa in Moon Bay and one thousand points." The familiar system prompt sound instantly rang in her mind, crisp and pleasant, like a piece of victory music, announcing the successful completion of this mission.
Su Siyi couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth, her eyes full of surprise and excitement. She didn't expect that after rushing here, she would get such a generous reward. Her favorability towards Moon Bay increased a bit more.
"You are my only one, I will love you forever!" A sudden and passionate phone ring suddenly rang, breaking the silence. Su Siyi didn't hesitate at all, quickly took out her phone from her pocket, swiped her finger, answered the call, put the phone to her ear, and whispered, "Hello?"
"Su Siyi, Miss Su, right?" A female voice as gentle as a gurgling stream came from the other end of the phone. The tone was soft and gentle, with a bit of respect and politeness.
"Hello, it's me." Su Siyi's tone was brief but polite, her brows slightly raised, secretly guessing the other party's identity and the purpose of the call, with a hint of doubt and vigilance in her eyes.
"Everything is ready for the Moon Bay Villa No. 6 you bought. You can move in at any time. When are you free to come and inspect it?" The woman's voice was still respectful, and her words were full of professionalism and enthusiasm, as if she couldn't wait to present the carefully prepared villa to Su Siyi so that she could enjoy this exclusive luxury and comfort as soon as possible.
"I'll be there right now." Su Siyi's eyes lit up, and she felt a surge of surprise. She had just signed in and received the villa, and then received a call for move-in acceptance. This coincidence was truly wonderful. She acted decisively and said directly, then hung up the phone. She looked up at Nangong Jingming and the others, her eyes full of excitement and anticipation, and said, "Let's go and inspect the new villa!"
On a sunny afternoon, Nangong Jingming had a smile on his face and a playful glint in his eyes as he asked, "Is this a villa as a reward?" Su Siyi, who was standing beside him, had curved eyebrows and an irrepressible joy on her face as she responded crisply, "Yes, let's go!" The excitement in her heart was rising. The system hadn't given her a house for a long time, and now she had another asset. It was worth being happy.
Nangong Jingming acted decisively and immediately took everyone into the car, not forgetting to instruct Jingyi: "Go to Villa No. 6 in Moon Bay." Coincidentally, they were already nearby, and the car sped steadily for only five minutes before the magnificent villa came into view.
"Sister, this is your villa." Su Wenxin got out of the car first, looked up at the villa built by the sea in front of him, and couldn't help but be amazed, and his words were full of amazement.
Su Siyi's face was filled with joy, her eyes lit up, and she couldn't wait to say, "Yes, let's go, let's go in and take a look!" After that, she took the lead and led everyone into the courtyard.
"Hello, Miss Su, I am the property manager Xiao Li, here are your property certificate and keys." As soon as everyone stepped into the yard, a property manager in uniform and looking capable came up quickly, handed over the certificate and keys with both hands, and his attitude was very respectful.
Su Siyi smiled and responded politely: "Hello, thank you for waiting here." After everyone carefully inspected the house, the property manager Xiao Li handed over another acceptance document and said politely: "Please sign here, Miss Su." Su Siyi took the pen and signed her name neatly without hesitation.
"Second brother, let's go upstairs and take a look!" Su Siyi was very excited. When she looked around casually just now, she felt that the scenery upstairs must be beautiful, and she also heard that there was a barbecue area on the roof.
"Okay." Su Wenxin agreed happily and walked upstairs with big strides.
"Siyi, this place is very big. Do you want to have a barbecue here?" Su Wenxin stood on the spacious rooftop and looked around. The place was open and ventilated, perfect for a lively barbecue party.
Su Siyi was very excited, but still a little hesitant: "Is it okay? But we haven't bought anything yet, and the villa probably doesn't have anything prepared. I'm afraid we'll have to buy everything we need for the barbecue. Is that convenient?"
Nangong Jingming waved his hand nonchalantly and smiled reassuringly: "It's very convenient. There's a supermarket nearby where you can buy anything. If you want to eat something, I'll just ask someone to buy it for you."
Su Siyi's eyes lit up, and she agreed expectantly: "Then let's do it once and relax!" Nangong Jingming was also unambiguous and immediately called his men: "Come in and get ready. We're having a barbecue dinner here today."
