Chapter 565: She Doesn’t Appreciate Men
They could work together during missions, but she would stay as far away from him as she could in normal circ.u.mstances.
“This is the room key. Keep the air tickets. I’ve informed the service staff to give you a call at four o’clock.” Qin Xiu was responsible for sending Ye Jian to the hotel and was very meticulous. He even prepared Ye Jian’s uniform for the military training, “We got this camouflage uniform directly from the military unit, and your school uniform is inside too.”
“A car has been arranged after you get off the plane. It will send you directly to the training grounds. It’s a bit of a distance. It takes four hours by car. You’ll reach around noon.”
Qin Xiu was not only the Head’s translator. He would pay attention to his accommodation and travels. Now that the Head had arranged for him to take care of Ye Jian’s return to the province, it meant that he was taking Ye Jian seriously.
To Qin Xiu, Ye Jian was someone who had helped him before, which was why he was paying more attention to her.
“I will send you back to the hotel now. Come, go this way.” Under the light, his face was handsome, with the calmness of a mountain. As he smiled, he had the posture of a flowering jade tree, revealing the gentleness of a n.o.ble prince. He smiled at Ye Jian, and even the staff at the hotel front desk blushed.
What a gentle and elegant man.
Ye Jian, however, didn’t know how to appreciate that. Hearing that, she smiled, “Translator Qin, there’s no need for you to do that. I know the way.”
I know the way?
Qin Xiu smiled even wider when he heard that. His eyes were very dark, and when he smiled, it was like he could suck people in like a small vortex. “Ye Jian, that sentence has a very profound meaning.”
It wasn’t so. Ye Jian glanced at her room key, which clearly stated the room number and responded, “Thank you, Translator Qin. I’ll be going up first. Goodbye.” She didn’t say that she would see him again because the chances of that happening were extremely low.
Holding a camouflage bag in one hand, she left with light steps and entered the elevator without any hesitation. Before the elevator door closed, Qin Xiu could still see her waving goodbye.
What an interesting girl. Qin Xiu, who waved in response, waited for the elevator door to close before speaking to the chauffeur beside him, “Let’s go. Let’s go back to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.”
“Madam has already called when you were handling the check-in procedures for Student Ye. She said to call her back after you’re done to report that you’re safe.” The chauffeur was sent by the Qin family to pick him up and was respectful towards him. “Will you call now? Or will you call after getting in the car?”
Qin Xiu looked at his chauffeur and replied, “Did my mum say anything else?”
“Nothing else. She only said to call her back after you’re done.”
Madam Qin might have a diplomat for a husband, but she was still a businesswoman and had a certain status in the country. In that way, she had a strong side of businessmen. It was the way at home as well.
If she said that she wanted her son to call back, she would be waiting by the phone. Even though Qin Xiu was returning home later, he would still have to give her a call.
“Mum… Mmm, soon…”
When Qin Xiu was talking to Madam Qin, Ye Jian had returned to the hotel.
She placed Xia Jinyuan’s note on the bedside table and looked at it blankly after she had taken a bath. Her eyes were calm and you couldn’t tell what she was thinking about at that moment. After a while, she turned off the light and went to sleep, without ever opening the note.
At four in the morning, without even needing the staff to wake her up, she had already washed up and she took the note again and slowly opened it. It was a phone number, and it wasn’t a personal one.
