The Forbidden City’s Sweetest Secret Chapter 30

Chapter 30 That figure… is really outstanding.

The scenery outside the window flew by, and finally arrived at the “Oxygen Plus” resort after an hour.

Surrounded by flower beds, lush green grass, asphalt roads, and branching paths crisscrossing among them.

Vehicles parked in rows, and staff members came forward to lead the large group to their assigned accommodations.

Jiang Wansheng dragged her luggage and walked on the paths scattered on the fresh green grass, with a breeze and the fragrance of grass and trees in the air.

She was assigned to Building 02 in Area C, a three-story building with sharp corners, four buildings in each area, with the sharp corners forming a rhombus, together with the other five areas forming the six “petals” of the central building.

Between each area, there were mountains or water, incredibly spacious, and looking out from the windows of each room offered a pleasant view.

Jiang Wansheng and Cui Ziwan were assigned to the same room, a two-bedroom suite with wooden furniture in a pastoral style.

Cui Ziwan, full of excitement, put her luggage in her room and came over to find Jiang Wansheng, “Wansheng, do you want to go out?”

Today was the first day, except for a grand evening party that everyone would attend at night, the rest of the time was free to do as they pleased.

The central building’s multifunctional hall, billiard room, game room, and the golf course behind the building were all open for exploration.

Jiang Wansheng looked a bit weary; she hadn’t slept on the car, which made her a bit dizzy now. She politely declined, “No, I feel a bit carsick and want to rest for a bit.”

Cui Ziwan leaned against the door frame and asked again, “So, what are your plans for today? You’re not going to lie in the room all day, are you?”

Jiang Wansheng sat up with her hands supporting her back, “If I don’t feel dizzy, I might go out for a walk, haven’t decided yet.”

“Make sure you attend the party tonight, I just checked behind the central building, and they’ve set up a stage and long tables. It should be fun.”

Thinking about the noisy party at night, Jiang Wansheng felt a bit of a headache. Just as she was about to speak, Cui Ziwan interrupted, “Don’t even think about skipping it. We came out together to have a good time, so don’t spoil the fun.”

With that said, she didn’t say anything more, just nodded, “Okay, I’ll come find you guys later.”

Cui Ziwan smiled and stood up, “Alright, I’ll go now. Let me know if you need anything.”

She turned briskly and as she reached the door, a message was sent out.

[Everyone will go out at night, be prepared.]

Jiang Wansheng packed up her things, lay on the bed, checked the group messages, mostly photos taken by everyone playing around.

After looking at them for a while, she responded in the group and then lay down on the bed, closed her eyes, and fell asleep after a moment.

The phone alarm rang: 18:40.

Jiang Wansheng’s eyelashes trembled, then she opened her eyes, looking a bit drowsy.

She remembered the evening party she had to attend tonight, struggled to sit up, opened her phone, and saw that she had been mentioned in the group.

– 18:28

Shi Chengwen: [Jiang Wansheng, have you arrived, we’re already seated.]

Ling Nan: [Image]

Ling Nan: [We’re sitting here, don’t get lost.]

– 18:37

Cui Ziwan: [Jiang Wansheng, the party starts at seven, don’t forget, junior!]

Ling Nan: [Haven’t found it yet? Shall I come pick you up? @Jiang Wansheng]

Shi Chengwen: [Wow, Ling senior is so thoughtful /dog head/]

Jiang Wansheng quickly glanced at the messages and replied, “Sorry, I’ll be there soon.”

She hurriedly changed out of her pajamas, put on the light yellow spaghetti strap dress she wore today, the hem of the dress barely reaching her knees, her slender legs straight and delicate. The slightly wide straps hung on her thin shoulders, skimming over her delicate collarbones.

Her hair was styled in a high bun, with wispy bangs falling on her forehead.

When Ling Nan saw her running over, the fiery gaze in his eyes was undisguised.

She walked over quickly, and Cui Ziwan waved to her from afar.

“Wansheng, over here!”

Jiang Wansheng went over and sat down, tidied up her wind-blown hair, and looked around.

At this moment, the vast lawn was artistically arranged around the extended stage with tables and chairs, floral decorations, balloons floating, the lights were still dim, but the setup indicated that tonight’s stage was very exquisite.

Shi Chengwen sat opposite her and said, “Junior, you look beautiful tonight.”

Jiang Wansheng was taken aback, “I wore this in the morning too.”

Shi Chengwen smiled somewhat meaningfully, “No, no, today evening and this morning are incomparable. Tonight, you are the star.”

Before he could finish, Cui Ziwan fiercely stomped on his foot under the table, “He means there’s a social event tonight, and the beautiful girl is the star.”

Jiang Wansheng was puzzled, “But I didn’t sign up.”

Cui Ziwan chuckled, “Don’t mind him, he’s just talking nonsense, ignore him.”

Shi Chengwen glared at her in pain.

Cui Ziwan, feeling frustrated, replied with her mouth, “Can’t you be more subtle! You’re so obvious!”

She felt everyone’s eyes on her, and the atmosphere was strangely eerie. At that moment, Ling Nan suddenly cleared his throat and changed the subject, “Are you still feeling uncomfortable? I heard from Ziwan that you had motion sickness today.”

She replied, “I took a nap in the afternoon and felt better.”

Ling Nan said, “Sorry, I didn’t even notice you were feeling sick when we were sitting together today.”

“You don’t need to apologize, it’s just a minor issue.”

In fact, she would have been fine if she had slept the whole time, but Qin Mo’s name suddenly popped up, making her unable to sleep, and she became more and more dizzy with her wandering thoughts.

After speaking, she averted her gaze and looked around at the surroundings.

Shi Chengwen sat next to Ling Nan, pretending to learn from Ling Nan’s words, but was punched by Ling Nan, causing laughter at the table.

Jiang Wansheng chatted with everyone absentmindedly, waiting for the start of the evening party.

The buffet table was already prepared with a sumptuous feast, offering both Western and Chinese cuisine for everyone to help themselves.

– 18:52

Jiang Wansheng checked the time and ate listlessly.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became lively and restless, with the resort staff ready and heading towards a certain direction.

“President Qin is here!”

Someone suddenly shouted, causing a commotion throughout the venue.

“President Qin never used to join us for outings, but this time he actually showed up in person, it’s unbelievable!”

“No wonder the whole ‘Oxygen Plus’ resort was booked out. I was wondering why the scale was so grand this time, turns out the CEO himself is here!”

“Oh my god, the car is here, the car is here.”

“The group chat is full of pictures, and the resort manager is personally receiving him, damn, it’s actually true.”

Shi Chengwen: “Oh my god, I never thought I’d be able to see Third Master Qin in my lifetime, we’re really lucky, truly lucky.”

Cui Ziwan pulled Jiang Wansheng and said, “Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go see the excitement, I want a close look!”

When Jiang Wansheng heard that Qin Mo had arrived, she was stunned in place. She was forcibly pulled up by Cui Ziwan and didn’t have time to resist before being pushed into the crowd.

The car stopped right in front of the central circular building, with a wide square reception platform paved with square bricks in the center, and the pure black Bugatti parked prominently.

In the interplay of light and shadow in the night, it exuded a faint glow.

She had even ridden in that car before. Now, looking at it from a distance through the crowd, it felt distant and unfamiliar.

The back door opened, and a man stepped out.

Tall and straight, broad-shouldered, narrow-waisted, long-legged, he exuded a dignified and aloof air in his well-fitted suit.

This was the first time she had seen him since the unpleasant incident, and the crowd slowly moved forward, trying to get a closer look.

Jiang Wansheng was enveloped in the crowd, her wrist grabbed by Cui Ziwan, and she was pushed forward.

Suddenly, as if responding to something, the man turned his head slightly, his dark and sharp gaze directly meeting hers, effortlessly capturing her presence.

She couldn’t see his features clearly, but she could feel where that gaze landed.

With a tighter grip on her wrist, Cui Ziwan’s excited voice rang out, “Oh my god, oh my god, is he looking over here?”

“This is the first time I’ve felt so regretful. This resort is too big, I can’t even see clearly what he looks like, but that figure…” she clicked her tongue a few times and slowly uttered a few words, “is really outstanding.”

He stood there, expressionless, like a lofty and disdainful observer.

Feeling a bit uncomfortable, she broke free from Cui Ziwan’s hold, “I, I feel too stifled, I’ll go back first.”

As she turned and took a step, she could still feel the tension of being stared at.

Qin Mo watched as the person left his sight, his gaze darkened, and he withdrew his gaze.

The manager looked at the stern-faced figure in front of him, feeling extremely bitter and carefully handling the situation.
