C683 I'll Only Know Where the Privilege Is
"I'll take the subway back. It's convenient!" Jian Xi said.
"Let's go!" Qu Yichen completely ignored Jian Xi's refusal. He held Jian Xi's hand and walked to the side of the car. He opened the passenger door and stuffed Jian Xi in. "Wear your seatbelt."
Even though the car door was closed, Jian Xi still wanted to get out of the car and take the subway back. Jian Xi did not open the car door for the first time. When she wanted to open it for the second time, Qu Yichen had already sat in the driver's seat very quickly. He saw that Jian Xi had yet to fasten her seatbelt. Qu Yichen also wanted to open the door, so he looked at Jian Xi and said. "If you want me to help you fasten your seatbelt, you should have said so earlier!"
As he spoke, he bent over and prepared to fasten Jian Xi's seatbelt.
This action was too intimate. Jian Xi, who had experienced it a long time ago, did not want to experience it again. She immediately stretched out her hand to fasten her seatbelt and said. "I will fasten it myself!"
Qu Yichen saw Jian Xi quickly fasten the seatbelt. Only then did he straighten his body and start the car to leave.
Jian Xi thought that Qu Yichen would send her directly to the villa, but very quickly, Jian Xi realized that this was not the way back at all. "Didn't you want to send me back? Where are you taking me?"
"It's seven o'clock in the evening. It's time for dinner. I'll bring you to eat delicious food and reward you for your hard work during this period. Then, I'll send you back." Qu Yichen said.
"What!" Qu Yichen actually waited for her to get into the car before saying that. Or was it because he had already made up his mind from the beginning? "My house has cooked the food and is waiting for me to go back and eat!"
"You are the only one living there. What can you eat when you go back?" Qu Yichen said.
"I live alone, but every day, there will be a nanny who will come over to cook!" Jian Xi explained.
"Eating alone is so cold! And it is also boring. Are you unwilling to eat dinner with me?" Qu Yichen turned his head to look at Jian Xi, then quickly turned his gaze back to the front.
After all, he was still driving. He had to look at the road situation in front of him and not let any accidents happen.
Jian Xi was depressed and did not know what to say. She had already been kidnapped by Qu Yichen in the car. What else could she do?
Qu Yichen did not hear Jian Xi's reply for a long time. He turned his head and saw that Jian Xi was upright. She was sitting on the seat with her hands crossed in front of her chest and her eyes were staring at the front.
"Are you angry?" Qu Yichen stopped when the red light was on. He turned to Jian Xi and asked.
Jian Xi did not respond. She was indeed a little angry, but she was not particularly angry.
Qu Yichen reached out and grabbed Jian Xi's chin. He turned her to him and gently comforted her. "Okay, don't be angry. We are almost there. You will not regret it."
What she said now was just empty words. In fact, she did not want to walk around outside all the time. Especially now that hubby Qu hadn't gotten rid of his anger on her yet, and it seemed that he didn't care what she did. hubby Qu would know, and she couldn't let hubby Qu know that she and Qu Yichen had such a close relationship in private.
Jian Xi reached out her hand and slapped Qu Yichen's hand away, then turned her head back. But Qu Yichen was very patient and reached out his hand to turn Jian Xi's head back, and looked at him. They looked at each other. When he turned around, Jian Xi happened to see the red light jump. The car parked behind was also honking, so she said to Qu Yichen. "The green light!"
Qu Yichen turned his head and saw that the lights were really green. He stopped provoking Jian Xi and started the car again.
Just as Qu Yichen had said, they would arrive very soon. Qu Yichen parked the car by the side of the road. He had already gotten off the station and was at the side. Jian Xi was still sitting in the car and did not get off. Qu Yichen laughed softly. It seemed like he was really angry tonight.
"Come down." Qu Yichen opened the door and said.
Jian Xi was actually wondering if she should get out of the car and take a taxi back. But since they were already here, wouldn't it be a waste to take a taxi back? Furthermore, it was already here. Even if she said nothing, there was nothing. Probably no one would believe her either!
"Come down!" Qu Yichen changed into a softer voice and said. "Are you hungry?"
It was fine if he did not say that. When he said he was hungry, Jian Xi's stomach responded like a response. Jian Xi was almost black, but she did not struggle or resist and got out of the car. She followed behind Qu Yichen.
They walked into an alley. It was a very spacious alley. Even a small car could enter, but the strange thing was that Qu Yichen didn't drive the car in. After walking a few more steps, Jian Xi realized that... It turned out that the road they stepped on was also paved with stones. She felt like she was in the ancient times, even though the sky had darkened. However, there were red lanterns hanging above his head.
Jian Xi did not feel gloomy or scary at all. Instead, she was full of joy. She even forgot about her anger towards Qu Yichen.
After walking for a while, the two of them arrived at the front door of a house. It was the same kind of double push door that used to be in the past. There was also a copper ring on the handle of the door. It was used by people to knock on the door in the past.
She actually never knew about such an antique building in the past.
Qu Yichen walked over, pulled the copper rings, and knocked on the door. Soon, a young man came over and opened the door. He did not say anything. He just led them in. Qu Yichen turned around and saw Jian Xi looking up at the two lanterns at the door. He quickly walked over. He held Jian Xi's hand and walked in with her.1
It was the same as the courtyard house. There were several independent buildings with the same ancient style. The young man led them into one of the buildings and passed by the screen. Only then did they see the tables and chairs, which also had the same ancient style. It had the aura of an ancient family.
Qu Yichen stretched out his hand to pull the chair and let Jian Xi sit down. Then, he sat beside Jian Xi. The young man who brought them in left after they sat down. Qu Yichen made his own move and poured tea for himself and Jian Xi.
"Have a cup of tea. We can eat it in a while!" Qu Yichen said.
"Where is this place?" Jian Xi did not reach out for the tea cup. Instead, she was very curious about this place. "I have lived in Jiangzhou for so long, but I never knew there was such a place."
Seeing Jian Xi's excited look, Qu Yichen felt that he did not come in the wrong way.
"This is a place that only privileged people know about. It's normal that you didn't know about it before." Qu Yichen added tea for himself as he explained to Jian Xi. "This place only accepts three tables of guests every day. Every time we make an appointment. It'll take half a year. Every guest received is either a government official or a rich person. It's not enough to have money, but you still have to have connections to make an appointment once."
Jian Xi was stunned when she heard that. She was so surprised that her mouth could not help but widen.
Qu Yichen reached out his hand to install Jian Xi's chin back into the cup. He reached out and placed the cup in front of Jian Xi in her hand.
