Ji Yan then started driving.

"Where are we going now?" Ning Yi asked.

“We’re going to the Maldives to escape the summer heat,” Ji Yan replied.

Ning Yi said in surprise, "Going to escape the heat? That'll take several days, but I didn't bring anything. Why didn't you say so earlier? Turn around quickly, I need to go back and get my necessities!"

Ji Yan glanced at her, somewhat amused: "It's alright, they have everything there."

Ning Yi was a little confused: "Aren't we staying in a hotel? How convenient are the things in a hotel?"

Ji Yan said calmly, "I have a house there, fully furnished. If you need more, you can buy more."

"You even bought a house there?" Ning Yi asked incredulously.

She knew that place; wealthy people loved to go there to escape the summer heat. The prices there were exceptionally high, with comprehensive entertainment facilities. Hotels and guesthouses there could easily cost no less than 100,000 yuan per person per night.

The housing prices there are outrageously high. Ning Yi had previously considered escaping the summer heat, and the Maldives was her top choice among the places she was willing to visit. However, most people only dare to look at pictures and videos, as it is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Although she could afford it, she felt bad about spending so much money all at once, and her material desires in that area weren't that high.

It takes two hours to fly from the neighboring city to the Maldives.

Ji Yan took Ning Yi on his private jet again. As expected, following Ji Yan broadened her horizons considerably.

This was her second time riding on Ji Yan's private jet. She wouldn't have the chance to ride it unless the two of them went out together.

Seeing Ning Yi examining the plane, Ji Yan said, "Whenever you need to go somewhere, like to participate in competitions or performances in distant places, you can contact Captain Chen directly, and he'll fly you there."

After saying that, Ji Yan took Ning Yi's phone and saved Captain Chen's contact information for her.

Ning Yi chatted with Ji Yan for a while on the plane before feeling sleepy.

Ji Yan glanced at the sleeping Ning Yi, and couldn't help but lean closer to look at her quietly, a smile unconsciously creeping onto his lips.

His little wish was finally so close to him again.

Ji Yan watched for a while, then closed his eyes and dozed off for a bit.

After the plane landed, Ji Yan woke up. He looked out the window, and then a flight attendant came over to remind them that they had arrived at the Maldives airport and could disembark.

Ji Yan then woke up Ning Yi, who was fast asleep.

Ning Yi got up early today, but compared to her usual sleep until she naturally woke up, she still felt like she hadn't slept enough, so she was really sleepy on the plane.

She yawned, still feeling a little groggy. She was led off the plane by Ji Yan's hand, and a cool breeze blew over, dispelling Ning Yi's drowsiness.

Finally, stepping outside no longer brings a wave of sweltering heat.

Ji Yan said that the temperature in the neighboring city is 38 degrees Celsius, while it is only 27 degrees Celsius in the Maldives. Sure enough, this temperature is the most suitable for going out.

It's not cold, and it's not hot at all; it's so comfortable.

"Do you feel cold?" Ji Yan asked with concern.

Because it was very hot before, Ji Yan was worried that she wasn't dressed warmly enough and wouldn't be able to adapt to the place in a short time.

Ning Yi shook her head: "No way."

Ji Yan took Ning Yi's hand, and then someone came to pick them up; it was someone Ji Yan had arranged in advance.

The Maldives is located at a high altitude, which is why the temperature is so low. The airport is built on the top of this mountain, and the car drove downhill. After about ten minutes, we arrived at the holiday home that Ji Yan had mentioned.

The houses here are all garden houses, with exquisite and beautiful exteriors. The security guards at the entrance of the community always smile and let cars pass when they see them drive in.

Ji Yan had notified someone in advance to clean the place. His parents had also stayed here for two weeks some time ago, but that was half a month ago.

Ji Yan said that the company has been quite busy lately.

The garden houses here are all individual buildings, very beautiful, and look just like the houses you see on TV.

I heard online that a house with a garden here can buy a large villa elsewhere.

Ji Yan led Ning Yi into the house, which was a two-story building with a simple yet elegant decor, the kind of house Ji Yan liked.

"When did you buy it? Houses here are so expensive!" Ning Yi couldn't help but look around after changing her shoes.

Ji Yan smiled and replied, "I bought it a couple of years ago. My parents love to travel, and this place is perfect for escaping the summer heat."

Ning Yi opened her mouth in surprise: "Then... you bought it yourself with the full amount of money?"

Ji Yan nodded: "Yes, actually I've been involved in some company work and business since my freshman year of college, and my dad has also been involved with me a lot."

"So that's when I started making money, but after I entered the entertainment industry, I stopped managing the company's affairs."

"Once my career stabilizes, I'll start exploring various investments again."

Ning Yi thought he was really amazing; he was indeed a character from a novel.

Ji Yan couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at the adoring gaze she was giving him.

"My money will be your money sooner or later, you can spend it however you want," Ji Yan said, moving closer to Ning Yi and reaching out to pat her head.

Ning Yi lowered her head, somewhat embarrassed.

"By the way, is the kitchen fully equipped?" Ning Yi suddenly remembered something and asked.

Ji Yan nodded: "Everything is available. If anything is missing, I can call and have it delivered."

Ning Yi smiled and said, "I'll cook you a big meal to help you recover. You've worked so hard for so long, you deserve a good meal."

A warm feeling washed over him, and then he said, "It seems like there's not much food at home."

Ning Yi said, "Shall we go out and buy it?"

Ji Yan took out her phone and tapped on a delivery app. It showed a fresh food supermarket about 2.2km away.

"Just order directly from the platform. This fresh food supermarket is huge and has a wide variety of products," Ji Yan said, handing his phone to Ning Yi.

Ning Yi took the phone, scrolled through the screen, and then nodded, asking, "What do you want to eat?"

Ji Yan stared at Ning Yi and then replied, "I want to eat anything you make."

Her smile deepened: "Then our star Ji can get ready for a delicious meal!"

Half an hour later, all the items Ning Yi had ordered arrived. They were going to stay here for a week, so they had bought quite a lot of things.

Ning Yi, as if coaxing a child, took a bottle of yogurt from the bag, stuck a straw in it, and handed it to Ji Yan, saying, "You sit on the sofa and play for a while, I'm going to cook."

Ji Yan stared blankly at the yogurt in his hand, while Ning Yi had already turned around and carried the ingredients into the kitchen.

He couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips into a smile, then took the bottle of yogurt and followed them inside.

"You're making so much? Let me help you," Ji Yan said as he entered the kitchen and saw Ning Yi carrying so many ingredients.

Ning Yi waved her hand: "No need. You came back so late yesterday and left so early today. You should rest for a while and wait to enjoy the delicious food later."

Ji Yan felt a little helpless, but not wanting Ning Yi to get tired, he insisted on helping her peel a few potatoes and wash a few vegetables before going out.
