After breakfast.
Yu He wiped her mouth with a napkin and asked, "How many days are we going for? I'll pack my things."
He must have been bored recovering at home this week. It would be good for him to get out.
"I've already prepared everything for you," Qin Beiting said. "We're expected to return tomorrow evening. If you want to stay longer, we can come back later."
Yu He was a little surprised. Had he even prepared her undergarments?
As the two of them were leaving, the little piglet was waiting by the door. As soon as the door opened, it darted out and stood by the elevator, its dark, dewy eyes looking at Yu He, its little tail wagging happily, as if to say, "I want to go too, take me with you."
Qin Beiting walked over slowly, bent down, and scooped it up with one hand. He turned and walked back.
The little piglet realized his intention, snorted, and wriggled free from his hand, jumping down. Then, with a zip, it darted to Yu He's feet, making cooing sounds of affection.
"If it's not afraid, then let's take it with us," Yu He said, bending down to pick it up and stroking its little head.
The little piglet closed its eyes happily, nestled in Yu He's arms, and made cooing sounds.
"Are you tired of pig food and want to try dog food now?" Qin Beiting looked at the little piglet as if his eyes were daggers.
Yu He: "..."
They went down to the first floor. The bodyguard from before had already put their luggage in the trunk. Seeing them come down, he opened the car doors.
Half an hour later, they arrived at a vast airport. A plane was ready for takeoff.
Yu He held the little piglet and looked around. The plane was parked a long distance from the terminal. Clearly, it was a private jet.
Looking at the plane, it was a modified Boeing 747. The cabin was like a luxuriously decorated hotel in the sky, complete with bedrooms, a dining room, a living room, an office, a bathroom, and a kitchen.
It seemed like they could live in the sky as long as there was enough fuel.
Yu He walked around the cabin, and the only four words that came to mind were: extravagant and luxurious!
She found a flight attendant and, after they had settled the little piglet, went to the living room and sat on the sofa next to Qin Beiting.
"Ting Ge, you said you weren't doing well at the Qin family's place?"
She said this, looking at him sideways, as if to see how he would explain.
Qin Beiting calmly said two words, "Rented."
Yu He glanced at the napkin in front of her with "XS Group" printed on it: "..."
She had some impression of XS Group. Two years ago, XS Group had snatched a major project from the Qin family and risen powerfully. In just two years, they had entered the top ten of the domestic enterprise rankings.
Its CEO was Qi Xifeng, a self-made entrepreneur.
The company, in its second year of operation, had acquired a private jet costing at least 500 million US dollars to start. This showed how optimistic the profits from snatching the Qin family's project were.
The head of the Qin family must have hated XS Group intensely. How could Qin Beiting still rent a plane from XS Group?
Yu He: "You have a really big heart!"
Qin Beiting: "..."
-
After the plane had been flying for a while and stabilized, Yu He unbuckled her seatbelt and went to check on the little piglet.
It was the little guy's first time on a plane. It seemed to have been frightened by the roar of takeoff and was huddled in its cage, trembling all over.
Yu He opened the cage door and stroked it with concern.
"Are you okay?" Qin Beiting walked over slowly, holding a camera in his hand.
"It was scared," Yu He said, gently picking it up from the cage.
Qin Beiting looked at it and said coolly, "It would be good if it died and we could make it into roast suckling pig."
The little piglet shivered and snorted indignantly at him twice.
*You're the roast suckling pig!*
"See, it can still resist, which means it won't die. Don't worry," Qin Beiting said to Yu He.
Little piglet: *I was too careless.*
Yu He: "..."
However, at this moment, whether it was Yu He's comfort or Qin Beiting's goading, the little piglet's condition had clearly improved. It was no longer trembling and even jumped down to the floor, sniffing here and there, as if exploring new territory.
Qin Beiting asked Chen Dong to watch the little piglet, then took Yu He to a room. "Come and take a few pictures for me first."
Yu He took the camera he handed her and lowered her head to study how to use it for a moment.
When she looked up, she saw that Qin Beiting had already taken off his shirt, revealing his broad shoulders, narrow waist, and torso covered in various scars.
"..."
This speed... it felt so practiced?
She raised the camera, took a test shot of Qin Beiting, looked at it after developing it, and then silently handed it to him.
"Like this?"
Qin Beiting took the camera and looked at it. "..."
"Cough, not good?" Yu He coughed dryly when he didn't speak, feigning ignorance.
She rarely took photos, and even less so selfies, so her photography skills were indeed somewhat lacking.
Qin Beiting: "..."
Some people online complained that their boyfriends took photos from a "death angle." She hadn't expected the young lady to be the same!
The photo was only passable because of his good looks!
"You'll get better with more practice," Qin Beiting comforted her.
Yu He: "..."
"I'll teach you."
Qin Beiting walked to her side, switched to photo mode, and explained common photography techniques to her one by one, using the objects in the room.
Yu He learned earnestly, and occasionally acted as a model for Qin Beiting, taking a few photos.
It wasn't until three hours later, when the plane landed at Lucheng Airport, that Yu He finally managed to take a few presentable photos of him.
From the airport, they drove for another half an hour and then took a yacht to an island.
The island was covered in dense forest and had beautiful scenery. Several small villas were scattered among the trees. The sea was very blue, and the vast beach was completely deserted.
"A film crew has been shooting a movie here for the past couple of days, so they cleared the area," Chen Dong said.
Yu He was half-believing.
The three of them and the pig arrived at a private villa, had dinner, and rested.
It wasn't until five in the afternoon, when the sun was no longer so harsh, that Yu He decided to change into a swimsuit and go to the beach.
But when she opened the suitcase Qin Beiting had prepared for her, it contained five beach dresses of different colors, undergarments, and even a sun hat and shoes. But there was no swimsuit.
"I didn't expect the beach to be cleared, so I didn't prepare a swimsuit for you," Qin Beiting said, leaning against the door.
He was already wearing a simple white tank top and patterned beach pants.
Yu He: "..."
The implication was that he had deliberately not prepared a swimsuit for her?
She had wanted to go swimming!
"Next time it's just the two of us, I'll definitely prepare one for you," Qin Beiting added.
Actually, when clothes were sent from the brand store earlier, there had been a swimsuit. He had seen it and thought it was too revealing. With all sorts of people at the beach, he had simply decided not to bring it.
Yu He: "..."
Finally, she chose a pale yellow floral beach dress and closed the door to change.
When she came out, she happened to see Chen Dong talking to a boy with short, ash-grey hair at the door in the living room.
"No, you should send them to the hospital."
The boy looked disappointed and said thank you. As he turned to leave, he saw Yu He, and his eyes lit up immediately.
"Boss!"
