The unfamiliar environment in front of her wasn't her apartment.
Shi Mengwan felt a headache coming on. She sat up and looked at the environment in front of her.
This room was very big. It was almost as big as her small apartment. Other than the bed, there was also a sofa and an armchair on the other side.
Near the balcony, there were elegant and simple beige curtains. The entire style was European palace style, but it didn't make people feel comfortable.
She got out of bed and found that it wasn't her shoes by the bed, but a pair of extremely comfortable indoor slippers. She put on them and walked towards the balcony. When she opened the curtains, she was almost shocked.
The huge man-made lake was in front of her. The green in front of her was like a park. But it looked much more elegant than a park.
She looked to the side and saw that it was all villa areas. She frowned. She was friends with Su Qingsang, and she would sometimes attend some clients' dinner parties. She had a certain understanding of some famous villa areas in Lin City.
However, the neighborhood in front of her was very unfamiliar to her.
She stood for a while and remembered that the last person she saw was Zhan Haoze. She was about to call Zhan Haoze. She didn't know that Zhan Haoze was standing at the door.
"Where is this? Why am I here? "How did he bring her here?
No, it should be said, how did she appear here without realizing it?
"My house." Zhan Haoze walked towards her. The morning light shone in from the direction of the balcony. The person in front of her was tall and handsome.
The next sentence almost made Shi Mengwan's legs go limp. "This is my home in Qing City."
Shi Mengwan staggered and almost couldn't stand. Zhan Haoze quickly supported her at this moment.
For Shi Mengwan, who had just woken up, she didn't have much energy to resist him. Her lips moved, and a gloomy look flashed across her eyes.
"You, who agreed to you? Who agreed to you that I was coming to Qing City? "
Zhan Haoze looked at the anger on her face. He didn't seem to understand why she was so angry.
"I told you that I wanted to bring you to Qing City."
Shi Mengwan was so angry that she almost laughed. "You said you wanted me to come, so I came?"
She said this and walked past Zhan Haoze to walk out. Zhan Haoze grabbed her arm.
"Are you angry? Why? "
"Why? Do you think I can't be angry? Do you think I have no reason to be angry at you for taking me to another city or another place without my consent? "
Zhan Haoze was stunned for a moment. Seeing the anger on Shi Mengwan's face, he nodded. "I'm sorry. It's my fault I didn't ask for your permission. But I still have things to deal with here, and I want to be with you, so I used the wrong method. "
He lowered his stance a little. Shi Mengwan wasn't used to seeing Zhan Haoze like this.
In the past, she would have wanted to question him, but today, she was too lazy to even do so.
"I accept your apology, so can I leave now?"
Zhan Haoze didn't expect Shi Mengwan to have such a reaction. Shi Mengwan had already walked outside. When she reached the door, he tried to run after her.
Shi Mengwan suddenly stopped in her tracks and turned back.
"Where is my bag? And my car. "
"It's downstairs. I've asked someone to park the car in front of your apartment."
After hearing this, Shi Mengwan didn't ask any more questions. She turned around and continued to walk out. Zhan Haoze followed behind her.
Shi Mengwan took a few steps and realized that there was no way out. She turned around and looked at Zhan Haoze, who was following behind her. She didn't know if it was her imagination, but she saw a faint smile in his eyes.
"The stairs are this way."
Zhan Haoze explained very kindly. Shi Mengwan snorted and walked past him in the opposite direction.
Her angry look made Zhan Haoze decide not to tell her that the place where she had walked to the end of the road was actually the elevator. As long as she pressed the button on the side, the elevator would come up. Instead, he chose to follow behind her.
Shi Mengwan was wearing cotton slippers, so she naturally couldn't walk fast. She didn't know if the air conditioner was turned on, but the warm wind in this season made her feel a little hot.
The stairs were indeed on the other side. After going downstairs, she wasn't in the mood to appreciate the decorations here. She looked around and immediately saw her bag on the sofa. She went forward to pick it up and continued walking outside.
After taking two steps, she realized that the shoes on her feet were wrong. She had no choice but to turn around and look at Zhan Haoze.
"Where are my shoes?"
"In the shoe cabinet at the entrance," Zhan Haoze said.
Shi Mengwan nodded and went forward to open the shoe cabinet. Sure enough, she found her shoes and put them on. She reached out and opened the door.
The moment the door opened, the cold wind that blew into her face made Shi Mengwan quickly and instinctively close the door.
She turned around and looked at Zhan Haoze. "Qing City is in the north?"
She always heard him say that he wanted her to accompany him back to Qing City, but she really hadn't paid attention to where Qing City was.
She looked at her body. Before she went out yesterday, she had taken a light woolen coat, but now that she had just woken up, she didn't know where the coat was. She was only wearing a thin sweater, so she was really cold now.
She glared at Zhan Haoze and gritted her teeth for some reason. "Mr. Zhan, can I ask how I got in yesterday?"
Zhan Haoze looked at the anger on her face and didn't seem to mind. "I carried you in. You were sleeping a little soundly. When I got out of the car, I covered you with a blanket."
Of course, he wouldn't say that he got into the car directly after getting off the plane. There was a heater in the car, and they came directly from the underground garage, so it was normal for her not to feel cold.
Shi Mengwan nodded. Her expression was very conflicted and a little angry. "Good, very good. Great. "
In such a situation, if she didn't want to get sick from the cold, she had to ask Zhan Haoze.
"You don't have to leave in a hurry. There are many fun places in Qing City. You can play for two days before you leave. "
"Is this considered a forced purchase?"
Shi Mengwan was angry. Zhan Haoze put his arm around her waist. "This is a sincere invitation."
Shi Mengwan raised her foot and was about to step on the back of his foot. However, she was wearing cotton slippers, so no matter how hard she tried, she didn't cause any harm to Zhan Haoze's foot.
She was angry and turned around, not wanting to talk to him.
However, her stomach made a very uncooperative sound, and Shi Mengwan's face instantly turned red.
"Let's go. Let's eat. "
Zhan Haoze brought her in the direction of the dining room. Previously, Shi Mengwan was so focused on leaving that she didn't notice at all. Only now did she realize that there was someone else in the house.
After entering the dining room, she realized that not only was the room big, but the dining room was also big.
The long white dining table had a lot of exquisite food placed in the middle. It was placed on an exquisite plate.
Zhan Haoze held Shi Mengwan's hand and sat down at the other end of the dining table.
"There are some good places of interest in Qing City. After dinner, we can –"
"Didn't you say that you have a lot of work to deal with?" Shi Mengwan's expression was a little cold. "Since that's the case, then you should go deal with your work first."
Zhan Haoze wasn't angry even though she had brushed him off. He was about to explain that he could spare a day when Tang Hua rushed in from outside.
When he saw that Shi Mengwan was also there, he swallowed back the words he was about to say.
"President Zhan, Miss Shi."
Shi Mengwan knew Tang Hua. This person had been with Zhan Haoze for an unknown period of time. She nodded as a greeting and watched Zhan Haoze get up.
"You eat first. I have something to do here. I'll take you out to play in the afternoon."
Shi Mengwan didn't mind when she could go out at all. Now, she was so happy that she couldn't see Zhan Haoze.
Zhan Haoze was busy until it was almost evening before he finished.
Shi Mengwan didn't mind. She was thinking about some questions. For example, how could she leave this place and how could she have a showdown with Zhan Haoze?
Before she could think clearly, Zhan Haoze had already finished his work.
The sky gradually darkened. When Zhan Haoze appeared in front of Shi Mengwan again, Shi Mengwan had just finished scrolling through her WeChat moments.
Looking at the pair of long legs in front of her, she raised her head. Zhan Haoze was looking at him.
"Come on, let's go out to eat."
"Go out to eat?" Shi Mengwan didn't want to move. "It's very cold outside."
Actually, it wasn't particularly cold. It wasn't the coldest time in Qing City yet. It was just that Shi Mengwan had just flown over from the south, so she felt that it was especially cold here.
Zhan Haoze held her hand, and only then did she realize that there was a fitting room on the other side of the room.
Pulling open the door of one of the cabinets, he saw that it was filled with women's clothing. Everything was new, and the tags were still there. There were clothes for all seasons of the year. At the bottom, there were different kinds of shoes.
Seeing so many women's clothes, Shi Mengwan turned her head to look at him. Her slightly furrowed brows carried some complicated emotions.
Although these clothes were all her measurements, they were all standard sizes. So —
"Aren't we going out to eat? Take a coat and let's go. "
Shi Mengwan couldn't muster up much interest, but Zhan Haoze seemed to be in a good mood. Seeing that she didn't make a move, he took the initiative to pick out a khaki-colored woolen coat and handed it to her.
"This one's not bad."
Although Shi Mengwan wasn't very satisfied, she still put on the clothes. She found a pair of boots and put them on. Shi Mengwan followed Zhan Haoze out of the door.
After getting into the car, Shi Mengwan wasn't in a good mood. Zhan Haoze, on the other hand, looked very relaxed.
He reached out to hold her hand. "Sorry, Tang Hua had something to talk to me about. I forgot the time and didn't accompany you. Are you angry? "
Shi Mengwan wasn't angry. She pulled back her hand, and Zhan Haoze went to hold her hand again. She avoided him again. This time, she accidentally touched a button and the car window rolled down.
The cold wind blew, and Shi Mengwan closed the car window again. The car happened to make a turn at this time, so she didn't notice that in a villa next to her, Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao had just gotten out of the car. Su Qingsang happened to see her sitting in the car window and thought that her eyes were playing tricks on her.
Zhan Haoze's car circled around the city of Qing City. He seemed to be in a good mood today. He sat in the car and briefly introduced some of the scenic spots in Qing City to Shi Mengwan, as well as places to go.
Unfortunately, Shi Mengwan wanted to tell him the truth and break up, so she was in low spirits and couldn't muster up any energy.
In the end, Zhan Haoze thought that she was hungry, so he brought her to a place that was said to be very delicious roasted mutton.
It was a typical northern courtyard house, but it was cleverly divided into private rooms.
Zhan Haoze and Shi Mengwan were brought into the private room and sat down. Not long after they ordered, Zhan Haoze's phone rang. He glanced at Shi Mengwan and went out to answer the call.
He didn't expect that as soon as he walked out, he would meet Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao, who had also come because of the fame.
"President Zhan?"
"President Huo."
The two men stood at the door of the private room and greeted each other. Shi Mengwan saw Su Qingsang at first glance just now. She was quite frightened and instinctively hid in the bathroom in the private room.
Zhan Haoze was still chatting with Huo Jinyao outside. Shi Mengwan didn't care about the things that the men talked about at all.
She only cared if Zhan Haoze would suddenly go crazy and ask them to come in for dinner.
If Su Qingsang saw her, it would really be embarrassing. Fortunately, Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao didn't meet any acquaintances here. They were just here to play.
After greeting each other, Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao went to the backyard to watch them roast the whole lamb.
Shi Mengwan only felt that her back was covered in sweat. When Zhan Haoze entered the door, her face inevitably became a little gloomy.
"I want to leave."
Her voice was a little anxious. Looking at Zhan Haoze, she didn't have any intention of staying at all.
"The lamb is already being roasted. It'll be ready soon." Zhan Haoze sat down beside her and looked at her pale face. Ever since he came to look for her again this time, it was rare for him to have the intention to tease her.
"Are you going out now because you want to meet that good friend of yours?"
"Zhan Haoze?" Su Qingsang hadn't returned to the private room yet?
"Your good friend is visiting right now. If you go out now, I won't object, but I can't guarantee that you'll coincidentally meet her. "
Shi Mengwan's expression was very ugly. She glared at Zhan Haoze in front of her, wishing that she could stare a hole in his body.
Zhan Haoze squeezed her hand again. "If you want to see her, it's easy. I can ask President Huo to bring her along. It'll be more lively with more people, don't you think?"
It was his head. Shi Mengwan turned her face away. She didn't want to see this bastard at all.
Naturally, the meal was a little tasteless. Shi Mengwan saw the picture of the roasted lamb posted by Su Qingsang on her WeChat moments. She had even circled her name on it, saying that the next time she came, she could treat her to a good taste.
Shi Mengwan finally liked it and threw her phone to the side.
That night, Zhan Haoze said that he wanted to take her to the hot spring. Shi Mengwan wasn't in the mood at all. "Zhan Haoze, when do you plan to let me go?"
"Why are you in such a hurry? I said that there are many places worth visiting in Qing City. There's even a hot spring here. It's very comfortable to soak in a hot spring in this kind of weather. I'll get someone to arrange it tomorrow. "
How could Shi Mengwan still be in the mood to soak in a hot spring? She was in a hurry to return to Lin City now. At this moment, Zhan Haoze hugged her waist.
"Pregnant women can't soak in a hot spring, so don't worry. It's unlikely that your good friend, Mrs. Huo, will meet you."
"If I return to Lin City, it's even more unlikely that she'll meet me."
Shi Mengwan's words were a little mocking. Zhan Haoze acted as if he didn't hear her. He didn't think that something was wrong with Shi Mengwan because he saw her with Chen Feifei. He only thought that the reason why she was unhappy was because he brought her to Qing City without her consent, so she was throwing a tantrum.
Seeing that she couldn't get through to him, Shi Mengwan decided not to say anything.
She opened the door like a thief and called the waiter to confirm that Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao were in their own private room. Then, she left in a hurry.
Shi Mengwan didn't expect that what she was afraid of would come true. The more she didn't want to meet Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao, the more she would meet them.
When she was pulled out of the door by Zhan Haoze and brought to the famous ancient city of Qing City, she actually met Su Qingsang again.
She was a fashion designer, so she didn't have a fanatic interest in clothing stores. However, when it came to ethnic clothing stores with unique styles, they had no resistance.
Therefore, along the way, even though she didn't want to be with Zhan Haoze at all, when she saw the ethnic clothing store in front of her, she still couldn't help but lift her foot and walk in.
Her teacher had once told them that a good fashion design not only needed to be innovative, but also needed to be passed down.
What was national was the world, and the characteristics of a nation also needed to be passed down. Shi Mengwan looked at the exquisite, handmade clothes and liked them very much.
Zhan Haoze said at the right time, "If you like them, you can try them on."
"Yes, Miss, you have such a good figure. You will definitely look good in our clothes."
The shop assistant said flattering words at the right time. Seeing that Shi Mengwan stood still, she added, "The clothes in our store usually only have one pair of each color and size. Although it's pretty much the same ethnic style, we've done our own processing and processing. Miss, please try them on. "
It wasn't the peak season for tourism, so there weren't many people. Shi Mengwan looked at the obvious Uygur costume and finally nodded.
She didn't expect that when she went in to try on the clothes, it would be such a coincidence. Su Qingsang and Huo Jinyao just happened to enter the store.
Speaking of which, Su Qingsang entered this store because of her. Although her belly was big and she couldn't wear it, Shi Mengwan could.
Su Qingsang just wanted to buy a gift for Shi Mengwan. But she didn't expect to meet Zhan Haoze.
Zhan Haoze also didn't expect that they and Huo Jinyao would meet in such a big city with a population of tens of millions.
They were really fated.
Huo Jinyao looked at him with a probing gaze. Zhan Haoze was quite calm and even started to chat with Huo Jinyao again.
"President Zhan, are you alone?"
"No, I'm with my girlfriend."
Zhan Haoze openly admitted Shi Mengwan's identity. Of course, he didn't miss the flash of dissatisfaction in Su Qingsang's eyes.
Su Qingsang naturally didn't like Zhan Haoze's behavior. One had to know that Zhan Haoze already had Chen Feifei as his fiancée, but now he had another girlfriend.
She was willing to bet that his girlfriend was definitely not Chen Feifei.
Su Qingsang wasn't interested in meddling in other people's business. She turned around, took a dress that she thought was suitable for Shi Mengwan, and went to the fitting room.
On the other end, the shop assistant took the initiative to ask because Shi Mengwan hadn't come out.
Zhan Haoze looked at Huo Jinyao, who had been staring at him curiously, and walked into the fitting room under the shop assistant's gaze.
