How many loves can be relived in the story of a devoted CEO pursuing his wife?
Chapter 151 The Pavilion on Halfway Up the Hill
After visiting the set, they boarded a sightseeing bus arranged by Ren Anran and toured the Songhe Scenic Area.
The entire Songhe Scenic Area is very large, built based on the blueprint of the Northern Song Dynasty river market. It includes waterways, markets, houses, palaces, etc.
There were many tourists, probably because it was summer vacation. Tourists dressed in ancient costumes competed to show off their beauty, adding a lively atmosphere to the scenic area.
The lively Ren Anran dragged Liu Sisi to take photos, snapping pictures here and there, having a great time. Liu Sisi, on the other hand, felt a little uncomfortable, because she wasn't that familiar with Ren Anran; she was only there out of respect for Li Songze.
Fortunately, she was afraid of the strong sun. Most of the time, she wore a hat and sunglasses to minimize her presence.
"Anran, would you like to keep Mr. Li company? I can walk around by myself, but don't neglect him." She tugged at Ren Anran's skirt and gently reminded her.
"Him?" The two women looked at the man standing not far away in the shade of a tree, head down, playing with his phone. They couldn't tell if he was busy with work or something else; he had been silently following them the whole time.
This man is unfathomable and beyond Ren Anran's control.
Although he treated her very well, supporting and providing for her, and even giving her career resources, he seemed to dote on her on the surface.
But he never demands anything of himself, which makes him somewhat elusive.
Undeniably, Li Songze is a mature and charismatic man. Though taciturn, his calm and self-possessed demeanor makes him stand out even in the shade of a tree.
Liu Sisi smiled at her. This was a big CEO who had taken time off work to visit her on set. What kind of talk would it be to have him constantly following her around? "Well, actually I can walk by myself. Just call if you need anything. It's rare for you and President Li to meet, so I don't want to keep you both inconvenienced."
“This…” Ren Anran hesitated.
"Go ahead! I'll go check out the palace myself. See you later~." Liu Sisi gave her a reassuring look, said goodbye, and then turned and disappeared into the crowd.
Ren Anran watched her retreating figure gradually disappear into the crowd, and shook her head with a wry smile. Since the other person was so sensible, how could she possibly let her down?
She wore a light green tank top dress today, looking youthful and elegant. She attracted a lot of attention, which naturally boosted her confidence.
Ren Anran gracefully approached Li Songze, raising her pretty face and asking, "Aze, what are you busy with?"
“…” Li Songze looked up but didn’t answer. Instead, he subconsciously looked behind her but didn’t see the little woman.
His sharp, hawk-like black eyes swept around, but he still couldn't find her. His brows furrowed slightly, and a hint of tension crept into his deep voice as he asked, "Where's Sisi?"
Ren Anran's heart sank; he really did treat Liu Sisi very differently.
She keenly noticed that this man usually kept his emotions hidden. But on several occasions, he showed subtle ripples of emotion because of Liu Sisi.
"Her?" Ren Anran, a natural actress, deliberately dragged out the last syllable. She casually put her arm around Li Songze's, smiling sweetly as she said, "She said she wanted to walk around by herself, not wanting to be a third wheel."
Li Songze stiffened slightly, fixing his gaze on Ren Anran's face, his brows furrowed, his expression grim. "What if we get separated?"
"Pfft~." Ren Anran saw Li Songze's vulnerable side for the first time, and she chuckled. "Hehe, do you think Sisi is a child? She said she'd call us again in a bit."
Li Songze remained silent, his deep, unfathomable eyes giving Ren Anran a long, unwavering look. After fiddling with his phone for a while, he strode forward with his long, slender legs.
Ren Anran sensed the chilling aura emanating from him, and her delicate brows furrowed involuntarily. Was he angry?
Because Liu Sisi got lost?
Was it really necessary? She didn't know what else to say, and simply followed along.
Five minutes later, Ren Anran unexpectedly received an urgent call. Her manager said there were problems with several of her scenes and asked her to return to the set immediately for reshoots.
Having no other choice, she explained the situation to Li Songze and hurriedly headed back.
Meanwhile, Li Songze received a text message from Su Di, which opened to reveal a location link. The man's lips unconsciously curled into a smile as he saw the flashing dot in the location.
That's right, who is Li Songze? He can move freely in the online world whenever he wants.
He instructed Sudi to find a way to make Ren Anran safe and sound, and then locate Liu Sisi's phone number.
His gleaming, elegant leather shoes shimmered on the cobblestone streets as he turned toward the palace… His pace quickened, and a hint of warmth gradually appeared on his usually stern face.
Songci Palace is a newly built tourist attraction, made famous by the hit historical drama "The Story of Minglan". It has also sparked a Song Dynasty craze in China.
The palace's interior was ornately decorated, adorned with gold studs and vermilion beams and doors. The roof, covered with copper tiles and engraved with dragons, phoenixes, and celestial horses, was exquisitely beautiful and dazzling from afar.
The courtyard is deep and secluded, with lush green trees and ancient pines planted all around. A pavilion leans against the hillside, a charming little courtyard, a small bridge spans a winding stream, and lotus flowers bloom in the pond. Between the bricks and tiles, a refreshing and tranquil atmosphere permeates the air.
Liu Sisi weaved through the bustling crowd and found a quiet spot in the inner garden—a pavilion perched on a hillside. There were artificial hills and flowing water nearby, and large trees providing shade overhead.
It was four o'clock in the afternoon, and this place became a perfect spot to escape the heat and cool off.
She rested on the stone slabs by the pavilion, leaning against a pillar with one leg bent. She took out a bottle of mineral water, drank a couple of sips, and contentedly looked down at the entire lush courtyard, listening to the babbling brook, slowly calming her mind.
With her mind blank, weariness gradually crept in. She closed her eyes to rest, but before she knew it, she had fallen asleep.
A gentle summer breeze blew in gusts, brushing through her hair and caressing her ears. It felt like being soothed gently, causing the woman, fast asleep, to relax and smile with relief.
She dreamt of that night in Country J, under the moonlight, by a brightly lit river.
The same warm summer breeze ruffled her hair, and before she could brush it away, the man's slender, pale fingers had already tucked the stray strands behind her ears. He said, "Sisi, don't hide."
Sisi, don't hide.
God knows how panicked she was at that moment. She could clearly see the deep longing in his eyes, sparkling like stardust.
He wanted her to remember forever his shy smile, his nervous yet clear confession that he had always liked her. That night, his unexpected confession had already left such a deep and unforgettable impression on her.
He was so pure and wholehearted back then.
Later, she was truly moved by his deep affection and gave herself to him wholeheartedly.
He held her in his arms in the glass house on the rooftop as they looked at the stars, and said to her, "Sisi, I want to hold you in my arms, and quietly watch the stars and chat with you. I want to stay with you and live a simple, ordinary life that belongs to us."
A gentle stream flows on, supporting each other through thick and thin.
That night, witnessed by the stars and moon, their love was elevated to a higher level...
She could never forget how those deep eyes gleamed with a light like obsidian, making her heart skip a beat.
Back then, Lin Xuedong was so serious and kept his word.
When exactly did things start to change?
Suddenly, a scene flashed through her mind: the day he returned from his business trip to G City. He gave her a large bouquet of beautiful roses and said, "Sisi, 'My love is only for you,' I hope you like this token of my affection."
She believed him because she cared about him and loved him. Therefore, she endured Zeng Ziyan's various attempts to sow discord.
Actually, their feelings were too shallow. Deep love is fragile and can't withstand trials and tribulations.
The love was not honest enough, nor was it confident enough.
Otherwise, why would he suddenly have a fit of madness and drag her onto the Ferris wheel? With the fireworks as witnesses, he said at the time, "Sisi, you've already promised me. We just stamped and printed it, so no matter what, you can't leave me anymore~".
See how meticulously he planned, step by step, to capture her?
Gentle, yet domineering.
Even though he might have gotten together with Lin Lan, he still tried every means to keep her at arm's length.
He knew perfectly well that what he wanted was her undivided attention, so why did he still have an affair with Lin Lan?
There are no secrets in this world; no matter how much you try to embellish it, you can't hide the ugliness of the truth. His tenderness and his deep affection have all become pale and blurred...
"Sisi, please forgive me. I simply can't let go of you! Falling in love with you is the greatest happiness of my life, and even thinking of you is my sweetest pain. Being with you is like a ship finding its way back to its course in a vast ocean. I only love you, please don't leave me, okay?"
While her mind was in a complete fog, Lin Xuedong looked bewildered, wearing a bitter smile, pleading for her forgiveness.
