Chapter 223: I Have to Pamper Her More
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Nan Yan rolled her eyes at him.
She was wide awake right now, so why sleep?
Qin Lu seemed to guess the unspoken words and a hint of amusement sparkled in his eyes. He held her hand and led her to have breakfast.
The breakfast had been prepared by the Lantis Hotel and perfectly suited her taste.
Over time, Qin Lu had been slowly collecting information about her preferences. He wanted to understand her better and provide her with the best of everything.
Nan Yan couldn’t help but feel like this man had suddenly undergone a personality change.
He ignored his food, his eyes constantly fixed on her. Did he really believe that staring at her would satisfy his appetite?
After finishing breakfast, Wu Yue swiftly cleared the table and discreetly left the room, not wanting to be a third wheel.
Feeling content after the meal, Nan Yan lazily leaned against the plush sofa and tilted her head, asking softly, “Which auction are we going to?”
When she was in M Country, she had connections with several well-known auction organizers.
However, given her current circumstances, she preferred not to approach them unless necessary. At least until she had built up enough strength, she had no intention of revealing her true identity.
Qin Lu had just opened his laptop, and upon hearing her question, he turned his cold gaze toward her and said gently, “Have you heard of the Marlborough Auction House?”
Nan Yan shook her head. The name of this auction house sounded unfamiliar to her. It seemed like it wasn’t one of the prominent ones in the Western world.
Qin Lu’s fingertip lightly brushed over her hairpin, and he chuckled softly, “It’s quite sizable. Consider it a relaxing outing.”
Little one generally didn’t like having her head touched, so he tried to restrain himself from doing so.
Instead, he found other ways to make physical contact.
However, those warm and indulgent glances were so openly.
Nan Yan couldn’t help but feel her long and thick eyelashes quiver ever so slightly in response to his cherished gestures.
This man was just too unrestrained in displaying his charm.
She… couldn’t resist him!
Nan Yan shifted her gaze away, adopting a posture as if she were engrossed in her phone to conceal her unease.
For a while, both of them busied themselves with their respective tasks without further conversation.
Qin Lu was deeply engrossed in his work, utilizing every moment of their journey to focus on his laptop. Apart from when he was driving, he barely parted from it.
Nan Yan, too, had her own affairs to attend to. Though her contact list on her phone wasn’t extensive, it consisted of significant individuals.
She had promised to help Zhang Lingxian with certain matters, which had resulted in an increase in their communication over the past few days.
Tao Qingming, on the other hand, frequently posed questions about traditional Chinese medicine. Whenever she saw a message from him, she did her best to provide detailed explanations.
There was also Marcus, who had thought himself neglected, the enthusiastic Qin family heiress Qin Shiyu, Old Madam Qin, Lin Zhiyan…
Nan Yan’s phone was nearly always buzzing with activity.
The three and a half hours passed swiftly, minute by minute, and they had already arrived at their destination without realizing it.
As the plane announced its impending descent, both of them put away their phones and laptops.
After disembarking, a dedicated vehicle was waiting for them, taking them directly to the hotel where they would stay.
Here, there was still the luxurious Lantis Hotel under the Qin Group’s umbrella, and the most opulent rooms were reserved for Qin Lu.
However, due to the auction, all the rooms were fully booked today, and even the most basic standard rooms were no longer available.
Nan Yan and Qin Lu, inevitably, shared the same suite.
Fortunately, the presidential suite had two bedrooms, so they wouldn’t have to share a bed. Otherwise, Nan Yan thought one of them would have to sleep on the couch tonight.
After putting their brought attire away and tidying up, she went to the living room.
Just as she settled on the couch, Qin Lu approached her with a lollipop in hand.
“Little one, have some candy.”
His voice held a hint of amusement as he unwrapped the lollipop and handed it to her.
Nan Yan gave him a sidelong glance but didn’t hesitate to accept the lychee-flavored lollipop and put it in her mouth.
Qin Lu naturally sat down beside her, his deep voice calmly inquiring, “The auction starts at seven in the afternoon and ends at ten in the evening. We’re estimated to return to Jing City at around one-thirty in the morning. It won’t affect your classes tomorrow, will it?”
“…No, it won’t.”
Now that she was already here, what else could she say?
One-thirty in the morning wasn’t particularly late for her. Pulling an all-nighter was a common occurrence, so getting a few hours of late-night sleep wouldn’t affect her in the least.
“What would you like for lunch?”
Nan Yan, still savoring her lollipop, casually replied, “Are there any local specialties here?”
She wasn’t very picky when it came to food; if it tasted good, it was fine with her.
“I’ll have Wu Yue arrange that.”
Wu Yue, who had just found a moment of respite from his duties, received orders from Mr. Qin and promptly set about arranging their dining plans.
This place was a foreign land with a time difference of 3 hours away from their country, with completely different customs and culture.
Qin Lu walked hand in hand with Nan Yan along the streets.
Nan Yan didn’t even bother to free her hand; she just let him hold it.
After all, when they had just left, she tried to pull away from him, and he had responded by holding her hand even tighter.
Qin Lu had a convenient excuse, too, claiming that this place was rather chaotic, so he wouldn’t allow her to wander too far.
Hah, all excuses.
Anyone with a shred of common sense wouldn’t dare to pick a fight with her; that would be suicidal.
But she didn’t resist the feeling of being cared for.
In the most upscale local restaurant.
Qin Lu looked across at the girl sitting opposite him and spoke gently, “Is the food to your liking? If you’re not accustomed to it. there’s also a Chinese restaurant here.”
“It’s fine,” Nan Yan replied, nonchalantly taking another bite and evaluating,
“It’s a bit unique, but not hard to accept.”
She had never been a picky eater, and the taste at this restaurant was indeed passable. She had requested to try the local specialties herself, so she couldn’t exactly contradict her own request.
Qin Lu looked at her, lowered his head helplessly, and sent a message to Wu Yue, instructing him to buy some food that Nan Yan liked.
After sending the message, he reached out and held Nan Yan’s hand. “If you don’t like it, don’t force yourself.”
Nan Yan placed her utensils on the table and said, “It’s not that I don’t like it…”
But after trying a couple of bites, she genuinely couldn’t get used to the local cuisine.
Qin Lu chuckled softly, “Well, it’s me who don’t like it. Just consider it as keeping me company?”
“That works too,” Nan Yan replied naturally, pushing her plate aside without any hesitation.
Observing her behavior, Qin Lu couldn’t help but find it extremely endearing.
Despite being a young child, she was always so composed and restrained, making him feel an overwhelming sense of tenderness.
It seemed he would need to pamper her a bit more, allowing her to be carefree without worrying about anything else.
Wu Yue swiftly purchased some dishes both of them liked from a Chinese restaurant and rushed to deliver them.
Initially, the restaurant’s host at the entrance saw him carrying food from another establishment and refused to let him in. However, after Wu Yue slipped them a few bills, they happily opened the door and allowed him in.
“Young Master, Miss Nan, I…”
Wu Yue was interrupted mid-sentence when a tall, burly man suddenly grabbed him by the collar and forcefully pulled him away….
