I'm afraid I'm not interested in love

Chapter 605 The Meaning of Travel (1)

When Su Chengyi pushed the door open, Chu Qingmian had already changed into her teddy bear pajamas and was preparing to sort out the work at hand before going to bed, and carefully check whether the Party B had done anything secretly.

Last time, it was because she did not check the contract personally and missed some small details that the sharp-eyed Wei Peilan discovered. After catching her, he lectured her over and over again for several days.

Chu Qingmian put on his nightcap and yawned reluctantly.

In fact, if she hadn't had to wait for Su Chengyi to finish talking to his father, she would have probably fallen asleep out of exhaustion. However, she was worried about something at the moment, so even though her eyes were tired, her brain was clear.

Unexpectedly, before she had even read two lines of the contract, someone pushed the door open with great momentum.

"."

Chu Qingmian was startled. Before he could reprimand the man for his rude behavior, the newcomer took the initiative.

Su Chengyi walked to the bed and pulled off her nightcap. The young lady's long black hair cascaded down like a waterfall, with a familiar fructose scent.

The cool breeze outside the door also blew in with his footsteps and movements. Chu Qingmian shuddered with a chill on his scalp and glared at him, saying:

"What are you doing! Give me back my hat, it's so cold! And Su Chengyi, you don't even knock on the door before entering a girl's room!"

"get up."

Su Chengyi turned her little bear nightcap around and laughed to herself.

"what?!"

Chu Qingmian was slightly stunned and blinked twice but didn't react.

"Why do you want to get up?"

She asked subconsciously.

"Let's sleep on the way."

Su Chengyi raised his wrist to check his watch to confirm that there was still time.

“On the way?!”

This was even more difficult for Miss Chu to understand. For a moment, she even suspected that she had fallen asleep while reading the contract just now. She must be dreaming now, otherwise why would Su Chengyi speak so incoherently?

"Yes."

Su Chengyi nodded, and seemed to have no intention of explaining at this moment. He looked down at his watch again, and then looked at the cute and adorable young lady who still looked confused.

"."

After a few seconds of silence, he bent his knees and pressed down to the edge of the bed, then took Chu Qingmian and picked him up from the bed by the waist.

"Hey! Su Chengyi!"

Chu Qingmian was startled by the sudden feeling of weightlessness, and in panic she had to hook her arms around his neck.

"Hey, what are you doing?"

Despite her busy schedule, the eldest lady still took some time out to poke Su Chengyi's face.

"By the way, where is your cloakroom?"

Su Chengyi paused and asked with his head down.

Chu Qingmian burst out laughing, with curved eyebrows.

"Turn left when you get out!"

In fact, as long as I'm with Su Chengyi, it doesn't seem to matter where I go.

Miss Chu's dressing room was as big as someone else's entire home. Su Chengyi put her on the dressing table and then began to pick out clothes for her one by one under her instructions.

"Can you please take out Su Chengyi's sweater so I can have a look? Hmm, it seems a bit too thick as a base layer."

"The one on the left, oh no, no, a little further to the left, that's it!"

"Okay, I decided to wear the same color as you!"

While the young lady was struggling, Su Chengyi felt like he was watching a fashion show.

Many clothes still have their tags on them and the numbers on them are truly staggering, but most of them were given to us voluntarily by the brands.

As the most popular little rich woman, she is positioned as an SSSVIP user by most brands and is a big sponsor who needs to be supported. Therefore, no matter what new products of the season are available, a copy will be sent to her in advance, and she is never absent from gifts during festivals.

Chen Jinzhi also has this treatment now, but because of her status as a big star, brands hope to gain some advertising effects from her. It would be even better if she was willing to be a free model and wear it when walking in the airport.

When Chu Qingmian came out of the fitting room, she had already tidied up her clothes and hairstyle.

She specifically chose a grey coat, shirt and a plaid skirt that looked very student-like, which were the same colour as Su Chengyi's.

The two people reflected in the mirror looked like a Japanese high school couple who were photographed for a magazine cover by the school photography club.

Su Chengyi looked down at his watch and the time was just right.

"Now you can tell me! Where are you going? Do you need me to remind you, Mr. Su Chengyi? It's 22:33 Beijing time now."

Chu Qingmian moved closer and asked again because he was really curious.

"You'll find out soon."

Su Chengyi curled the corners of his mouth, took her hand and walked downstairs.

The fireplace in the living room had gone out and it was quiet. Only the nanny on night duty was still doing some odd jobs. When she saw the two people coming down, she greeted them in a low voice.

"Did my dad go to bed? What did you guys talk about just now? Oh, he didn't say anything weird, did he?"

Walking into the living room, Chu Qingmian thought of this matter again and couldn't help but ask worriedly.

"No."

Su Chengyi shook his head and picked up an orange from the fruit plate on the table.

Although there were still a lot of doubts that he didn't understand, Chu Qingmian followed suit and picked up an apple.

It was a very large, bright red apple that required two hands to hold.

Being "hostage" by Su Chengyi and walking towards the gate, Chu Qingmian held her apple and looked up in confusion, just in time to see Uncle Gao waiting outside the door.

"Uncle Gao?"

she asked with some surprise.

Uncle Gao should have finished get off work at this time, but he is still here today, dressed in a suit and looking very energetic.

"Miss."

Uncle Gao responded and looked at Su Chengyi on the side.

Su Chengyi looked at him and nodded.

"Let's go."

"Ok."

Uncle Gao took out a pair of gloves from his pocket and put them on. He looked calm and professional.

"."

Chu Qingmian was silent for a while, feeling as if he was isolated from the whole world.

"Hey, hey! What do you two want to do by being so secretive? Why does Uncle Gao seem to know everything? Su Chengyi, say something!"

Hearing the eldest lady's fierce protest, Su Chengyi pretended to be serious and suppressed his smile. He did not answer, but just said something like "You will know soon".

Chu Qingmian pestered him with questions for a long time, and finally realized that this guy didn't want to say it. No one could pry any clues out of his mouth, so he had to give up.

The two of them got into the back seat of the Maybach one after the other. Uncle Gao fastened his gloves and started the engine. It seemed that his destination was very clear.

Chu Qingmian wanted to guess the destination through navigation at first, but that place seemed familiar to Uncle Gao, so he did not turn on the car navigation, so even the last clue that could be speculated was interrupted. This did not work, and Miss Chu had to sit down in the soft back seat of the Maybach in frustration.

Fortunately, I took an apple with me when I went out.

Adhering to the idea of ​​turning grief and anger into appetite, Chu Qingmian began to chew the apple with a grunt.

Su Chengyi rested his elbow on the car door, glanced at her out of the corner of his eye, and laughed to himself.

Apple is actually a very magical fruit. It is the most common fruit and the one that people least want to eat.

In most cases, the apples in the fruit basket are the last fruits that have been consumed, which makes people wonder whether they are used to make up the number and weigh down the fruit.

But the good thing about apples is that they are cheap, available all year round, and rich in nutritional value. Eating one when you are hungry can make you full.

Occasionally, there are times when you want to take a few bites.

Such as now.

Su Chengyi looked at Miss Chu eating with relish, and became curious whether this slightly larger apple was really more delicious than an ordinary apple.

"Now you are enjoying your meal, and you are not curious about where we are going?"

After watching for a while, Su Chengyi couldn't help but ask.

"Well, you won't tell me anyway."

Chu Qingmian held the apple in his hand and took the rare moment to glare at him.

"If I don't tell you, you won't guess?"

Su Chengyi supported his chin and asked with raised eyebrows.

It seems so.

Chu Qingmian pursed his lips and began to brainstorm.

"Let's go have a midnight snack! I remember Xu Yang said in the group a few days ago that there's a really delicious barbecue restaurant in his hometown, and he said that we'll have our next gathering there. You must want to go there first to try it out with me!"

"No, I don't even remember seeing this message from Xu Yang."

Su Chengyi shook his head and denied it.

Every time I open WeChat, there are 99+ messages in their group chat of "Save the Universe Team", although a large part of them are contributed by Xu Yang talking to himself.

As he gets older, this guy's ability to talk seems to have evolved. He no longer needs anyone to complement him. He can talk a lot by himself.

What's more, sometimes Han Bing couldn't stand it anymore and would say a few words to him, and Lin Tong would reply to his messages because he couldn't bear to let him have a one-man show, so the group chat of "Save the Universe Team" was always lively.

Su Chengyi would occasionally take a look at it when he had time, but he would just glance over it to see if he had missed any important news.

News like "A delicious barbecue restaurant opened in my hometown" cannot be classified as "important", so his brain naturally ignored such information for him.

"What?! It's not this!"

Chu Qingmian grabbed her apple and continued to think hard.

"Oh my god, could it be that my dad sent you to catch me and make me work for him!!! What happened at the company again? Ahhh, I was wondering why he disappeared! Did the casting for that variety show fall through? Or did the album's performance not go as expected? Or something else?!"

Thinking of this possibility, Chu Qingmian felt like his hair was about to stand up.

It's no exaggeration at all, it really feels like the world is spinning.

Especially on the night when I thought it was a rare day off, I thought I could happily spend a whole bowl of soup with my boyfriend and talk about poetry and life ideals after a long time, but instead I had to go back to the company to work overtime.

It's no different than the end of the world.

Seeing that the young lady had already entered a fragile working state on the verge of collapse, Su Chengyi quickly shook his head and denied it:
"No, it has nothing to do with work."

"Ah! That's good."

Hearing him say this, Chu Qingmian instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

It should be said that as long as you know it has nothing to do with work, it seems much easier to accept no matter where the destination is.

"As long as you don't go to work, it's fine. It's a rare day off for you, and it would be too pitiful for you to accompany me to work. I don't want it."

Chu Qingmian raised his eyes, turned the apple in his hand to the other side that had not been bitten, and handed it to Su Chengyi's mouth.

It was hard to refuse the young lady's kindness, so Su Chengyi lowered his head and took a bite. It was an apple with a sandy flesh, juicy and sweet, and it tasted really good.

"Guess again?"

Su Chengyi chewed an apple and spoke vaguely.

"Well, it's not a midnight snack, nor is it overtime. Are you going to take me out to play?"

Chu Qingmian's eyes lit up, and a hint of anticipation appeared in her beautiful eyes.

"But it's already this late, where are you taking me? With your personality, you won't go to a bar or something like that. You can't be like Xu Yang, who's so smart, and take his girlfriend to an Internet cafe to play games all night!

And if that's the case, it seems a bit unreasonable to force Uncle Gao to work overtime."

Chu Qingmian overturned his own speculation, blinked twice, and looked confused.

Su Chengyi looked at her drooping eyelashes, and saw that she looked so well-behaved that he couldn't help but reach out and pinch her cheek.

"Fool."

"Okay, I can't guess, just tell me directly."

Chu Qingmian pondered for a while and realized that if she continued guessing she would soon fall asleep, so she decided to give up and act coquettishly.

"At the beginning of the school year, we talked about ALICE's story. What did you tell me then?"

Su Chengyi fiddled with her bangs and asked.

"I said."

Chu Qingmian's voice was a little hesitant, and she said slowly:
"Su Chengyi, come with me to see the whales."

"So, what did I answer then?"

Su Chengyi continued to ask.

"You said you would definitely go with me this year."

"So, what month is it now?"

"It's December now."

Chu Qingmian's speech became slower and slower, and he seemed a little bit unbelieving.

"correct."

Su Chengyi smiled slightly.

"So, let's go whale watching now."

The mottled night outside the car window passed by quickly like pages of silhouettes. Chu Qingmian blinked his eyes, somewhat suspecting that he was dreaming. Even the voice of Su Chengyi in his ears became a little hazy.

Chu Qingmian could see that he was looking at her as usual and talking slowly, probably about the specific arrangements for this sudden trip, but she now remembered the story he told her at that time.

"The end of the world has come. The tigers in the forest have all melted into butter. The birds have gathered together to chirp their last hymn. The whales in the sea have gurgled down like submarines.

I took you on the last ark named ALICE, and you said with tears in your eyes that you would repay me for saving your life by giving yourself to me. I shook my head and said, "

The sounds from different time and space overlapped together, the boundary between dreams and reality was separated, and Chu Qingmian heard Su Chengyi's usual calm tone.

"Let's go whale watching."
