As the vehicle slowly entered Biquan Valley, a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere greeted us.

The first thing that catches the eye is a dense bamboo forest, which stands like loyal guardians, quietly protecting this hidden paradise.

A stone path winds its way through the bamboo forest, leading them deeper into the heart of the resort.

The resort's architecture is cleverly integrated into nature, with wooden cabins scattered across the hillside. Each cabin makes good use of the terrain, ensuring privacy while maximizing the view.

The roofs are covered with thick thatch, blending harmoniously with the surrounding natural environment, as if these buildings themselves grew out of this land.

Hot spring pools are scattered among bamboo groves and cottages, with steam rising slowly, creating a picturesque scene against the backdrop of greenery.

The babbling water, along with the distant birdsong and the sound of the wind, created a natural symphony.

The air is filled with the distinctive sulfurous smell of hot springs, which mixes with the fresh scent of the bamboo forest, making people feel relaxed involuntarily.

The car slowly came to a stop at the end of a gravel path. In front of us stood a delicate little wooden house, nestled quietly in the embrace of a bamboo forest, as if it were part of nature itself.

Su Maiqi and Gu Tingyu were already waiting there, greeting Mario and his wife with smiles.

“Mr. Mario, Mrs. Perrin, welcome to your cottage,” Sumaiqi said gently, her voice echoing through the bamboo grove, adding a touch of warmth and friendliness.

Gu Tingyu continued, "This is something we prepared especially for you. We hope you can find peace and comfort here."

Mario and his wife followed in their footsteps, passing through a wooden door with intricate carvings and stepping into the cabin.

The interior is decorated simply yet warmly, with natural wood as the main color. Several oil paintings depicting local scenery hang on the walls, adding an artistic touch.

In the center of the living room is a hand-woven wool rug, upon which are placed comfortable sofas and armchairs, each piece of furniture revealing careful selection.

The firewood burned quietly in the fireplace, crackling and adding warmth to the room.

On the dining table next to them, fresh fruit, an opened bottle of red wine, and several elegant wine glasses were already laid out.

Through the large floor-to-ceiling windows, you can see the private hot spring pool outside, which is cleverly designed in a bamboo forest, protecting privacy while allowing people to enjoy the natural beauty.

In the bedroom, a large bed occupies the center of the room, covered with a soft down comforter and hand-sewn sheets.

A bedside lamp emitting a soft glow sits on the bedside table, creating a warm and tranquil atmosphere in the room.

Pei Rong stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, watching the setting sun slowly sink behind the mountains, its afterglow spilling onto the lush green bamboo forest, shimmering with golden light, a breathtaking sight.

She couldn't help but exclaim, "So beautiful!"

The soft, lingering sound was like a sigh from a dream.

"A paradise on earth." Mario's voice echoed like a dream.

He stood beside Pei Rong, looking out at the private hot spring pool, which shimmered in the afterglow of the sun.

The others quietly left the room to find their own paradise.

Su Maqi and Gu Tingyu's little wooden house is right next to Mario and his wife.

Then there's Lin Manlin's cottage.

Xiao Mohan's little house.

After putting down her luggage, Su Maiqi greeted Gu Tingyu and then ran to Lin Manlin's cottage to find her.

Two girls changed into their swimsuits and soaked in the hot spring in the shimmering golden sunset, thoroughly enjoying themselves.

Seeing Gu Tingyu run into his little house, Xiao Mohan teased with a mischievous grin, "What, abandoned? Why come looking for me on such a beautiful day?"

Gu Tingyu didn't say anything, opened the red wine on the table, poured himself a glass, and drank it all in one gulp.

Then snuggle into a comfortable sofa and let your body completely relax.

He couldn't express his feelings.

He admitted that when Su Maiqi ran out to find Lin Manlin, he felt a sense of loss, but also a sense of relief.

In this romantic little cabin, the two of them stayed together, and he seemed a little unsure how to get along with Su Maiqi.

He could sense that Su Maqi was also a little embarrassed.

It's unclear when it started, but their relationship seems to have fallen into this predicament.

We work together seamlessly and enjoy a pleasant and harmonious relationship.

In bed, it was a perfect match, a truly exhilarating experience.

But once they're in this kind of life as a couple, they don't know how to get along.

They can't get along like a real couple or lovers; nor can they act like nothing's wrong and get along like ordinary roommates.

Looking at him, Xiao Mohan couldn't help but complain, "You two are really something. You're both in love, legally married, and a perfect match at work; you're actually quite compatible. Why are you arguing like this?"

Gu Tingyu was a little annoyed: "What nonsense are you talking about? We're a contract couple, you know that. We're cooperating quite well now. What's with the competition? You're delusional."

Xiao Mohan stared into his eyes for a while: "Why are you so stubborn? Is it meaningful to be so fixated on a piece of paper?"

He was a little confused.

Gu Tingyu didn't really have anyone in his heart. The original contract was, of course, for the sake of interests and to serve the overall plan.

But since you've fallen in love and are compatible in every way, cherishing the relationship and living in the present is a good choice.

There is no contradiction at all.

Why don’t you know how to adapt?

Gu Tingyu's eyes suddenly turned cold: "Before I obtain the status of Gu's heir, I will not fall in love with anyone, nor will I be moved by anyone. Don't try to understand me with your imagination."

I have a contract with Su Maiqi, and I will strictly abide by it. Please don't say such nonsensical things again.

If you want to experience emotions, you can go and date on your own.

After saying that, he took off his bathrobe, pushed open the back door, and walked towards the hot spring pool.

Xiao Mohan watched his retreating figure.

He was tall and fit, with every muscle exuding strength and coordination.

The broad latissimus dorsi muscles and the smooth lines of the spine form a strong inverted triangle.

His broad shoulders and strong, powerful arms swayed gently with his steps, displaying a dynamic beauty.

The soft lighting casts shadows of varying depths, adding a sculptural quality.

Her legs were long and powerful, with smooth muscle lines, and every step she took was steady and full of confidence.

"What a pity, what a pity," Xiao Mohan sighed softly.

He was not unaware of Gu Tingyu's inner fears and anxieties, and his dreams.

He understood his persistence, but also felt sorry for him.
