Chapter 29 Resort
Li Jinxi stood alone in the empty and silent villa, feeling a deep sense of powerlessness surged in her heart.
Lan Yaoxia has not returned home these days. She stared silently out the hall window, expecting the familiar car lights to illuminate this deserted villa. She also hoped that he would get out of the car, step into the house, and then calmly listen to her explain things.
However, time passed minute by minute, from a little after eight o'clock until a little after eleven o'clock at night, and it was still pitch black outside the villa, with not a single light coming into the house.
Gradually, waiting became a torment. Li Jinxi finally couldn't stand the fatigue anymore, and slowly fell on the sofa and fell into a deep sleep.
At the same time, Lan Yaoxia was enjoying a midnight snack outside with Li Keyi, Du Yujie and others.
The venue for this gathering was chosen by Li Keyi, located in a scenic resort. The weather was clear at night without any rain, and Li Keyi specially invited a group of young and beautiful girls to accompany him.
Everyone set up tents on the roof, lit charcoal fire, and started a lively barbecue party.
Despite the constant laughter and joy around her, Lan Yaoxia seemed absent-minded, as if she was out of tune with this joyful atmosphere.
He sat alone in the corner, drinking gloomily, and was indifferent to other girls' approaches.
During this period, Li Keyi tried many times to arrange several beautiful women to accompany Lan Yaoxia, but was decisively rejected by him.
At this moment, a clear and pleasant cell phone ringtone broke the silence, and Lin Yunzhu's name appeared on the screen.
"Hello, what's wrong?" Lan Yaoxia's voice was very soft, as if she was afraid of disturbing the people around her.
Lin Yunzhu's cheerful and joyful laughter was immediately heard from the other end of the phone: "Boss! Our show has ended successfully!" Her tone was full of excitement and satisfaction.
"Really? That's great." Lan Yaoxia raised the corners of her mouth slightly, expressing her relief.
Lin Yunzhu continued, "Today was really great! Especially my partner, who took special care of me. In a word, this mission was completed perfectly!"
Lan Yaoxia responded: "That's good, thank you for your hard work. You should take a rest first, and I will notify you when there are new resources."
After hanging up the phone, Lan Yaoxia slowly went downstairs to the first floor. The first floor was spacious and bright, and it was a hall that combined dining and wine tasting. He walked straight to the wine cabinet and sat down on a chair in front of the wine cabinet.
Then he ordered the staff standing in front of him: "Give me a bottle of whiskey." The bartender skillfully took out a bottle of whiskey from the cabinet, quickly and elegantly poured the wine into a glass, and then gently pushed it in front of Lan Yaoxia.
Lan Yaoxia smoked a cigarette while silently savoring the strong liquor in the glass, as if he wanted to use alcohol to numb his inner boredom. The whole atmosphere seemed a bit dull and depressing, but he didn't care about the eyes of others, just immersed in his own thoughts.
At this moment, a woman dressed simply but elegantly quietly sat down beside him. She ordered a glass of wine with a slightly lower alcohol content and sipped it slowly.
The smoke from Lan Yaoxia seemed to linger around her, causing her to cough rapidly. Seeing this, Lan Yaoxia quickly apologized: "Sorry."
Then, he quickly put out the burning cigarette in the ashtray in front of him. The woman looked calm and responded softly, "It's okay." After that, the two of them did not communicate with each other again.
Due to the continuous rainfall in the past period of time, there were very few people coming to the resort for vacation. At this moment, except for the bartender, there were only the two of them in the lobby on the first floor.
As the night deepened, Lan Yaoxia was already a little tipsy. Just as he was about to leave, the lady next to him stood up first.
However, it seemed that she was already very intoxicated. As soon as she took a step, she lost her balance and rushed straight towards Lan Yaoxia. With a strange sound, Lan Yaoxia suddenly felt that the situation was not good.
Before he could react, the lady had already vomited on Lan Yaoxia. A strange smell filled the space between the two of them, and Lan Yaoxia frowned in displeasure.
Finally, the bartender took great pains to find a few waitresses, who worked together to help the lady back to her room. Lan Yaoxia didn't want to stay any longer, so she went straight back to her room, ready to take a good bath to wash off the unpleasant smell on her body.
At the same time, Li Keyi, Du Yujie and others ended the party, but after searching everywhere, they still couldn't find any trace of Lan Yaoxia.
After some inquiries, they finally learned from a waiter that Lan Yaoxia had already returned to her room. After confirming this news, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief, and then each went back to their own room to rest.
The next morning, before the sun rose completely, the whole world was filled with a sense of tranquility and peace. However, a slight and rhythmic knock on the door suddenly broke the tranquility - someone was knocking on Lan Yaoxia's door!
The intermittent, sometimes light, sometimes heavy knocks on the door were like a naughty kitten scratching the door with its claws, successfully waking up Lan Yaoxia who was still immersed in her sleep. Lan Yaoxia rubbed her eyes with sleepy eyes, casually put on a pajamas provided by the hotel, then slowly walked to the door and stretched out her hand to open it.
But who would have thought that the person standing outside the door was the lady who sat next to him drinking last night.
As soon as she saw Lan Yaoxia, a look of apology immediately appeared on her face, and she said sincerely: "I'm really sorry, I drank too much last night, and I couldn't help but vomited on you..."
Then she added: "I'm so sorry to hear the waiter talk about this this morning!"
Lan Yaoxia resisted the urge to sleep and said to the person in front of her impatiently, "It's okay."
After saying that, he turned around and was about to close the door, but at this moment, the other party spoke again: "The waiter mentioned to me that your clothes are a famous brand and can only be dry-cleaned. We don't provide dry-cleaning services here, but I can compensate you..."
Lan Yaoxia waved her hand to interrupt the other party, saying that she did not need compensation and asked him to leave as soon as possible. Then, she closed the door without hesitation, walked back to the bed, climbed onto the bed and continued to sleep.
The lady outside the door was obviously a little stunned. She stood there for a long time before slowly turning around and leaving.
She slept very soundly, and when Lan Yaoxia woke up again, the sun was already high in the sky.
He opened his eyes drowsily and found that the sun was shining outside the window and the weather had cleared up. At this time, there was a hurried knock on the door. It turned out that Li Keyi and others came to ask him to go to the lake for a picnic.
