426 The Summer Resort Villa Is So Cold
Jiang Xiaoran and Xie Yinxiang were stunned.
Gu Nuo’er blinked her big innocent eyes and looked at Ye Siming.
Ye Siming pursed his lips and said seriously, “Then it’s not impossible for you to stay with Miss Xie.”
Jiang Xiaoran broke out in profuse sweat again.
What did he mean by it wasn’t impossible? It was clearly normal for the princess to stay with Miss Xie!
Why did Ye Siming want to share a room with the princess instead?
If the emperor were to find out, he would skin him alive!
When they arrived at the entrance of the villa, the four of them alighted from the carriage.
As Jiang Xiaoran had said, he had already sent a servant to inform the people at the villa. Therefore, there was a butler from the villa waiting to welcome them at the door.
When the butler saw Jiang Xiaoran, he went forward with extreme familiarity. “Young Marquis, I’ve been looking forward to seeing you come back again.
“This time, knowing that you have brought friends along, we especially saved three good rooms near the villa’s small Lingyin Waterfall!”
Jiang Xiaoran opened his fan with a swoosh.
He said with a flamboyant expression, “That’s good. The friends I brought this time are all very close to me. Butler Wu, don’t neglect them.”
“How could we? How could we?” Butler Wu smiled apologetically as he turned to look at Gu Nuo’er and the others.
He saw that Gu Nuo’er was the youngest, but she was the fairest and most delicate.
The thin green spring dress she was wearing made her look even more like a small pearl.
The youth beside her was cold and handsome, looking like someone who wasn’t to be trifled with.
Then, he looked at Xie Yinxiang. She was also dressed well.
Butler Wu immediately knew what to do.
He bowed and welcomed the four of them into the villa.
From the outside, one could tell that this summer resort was decorated with great extravagance.
Just the steps to the entrance were paved with bluestone jade.
After climbing up the steps, there was a tall hanging door. The eaves and feathers on it exuded a cold luster.
Gu Nuo’er looked up and could see the exquisite arches inside.
The villa was quite big and it was said that it occupied more than half of the mountain.
However, as soon as Gu Nuo’er walked in, she smelled an unpleasant smell.
It was as if a piece of wood had been soaked in water and had rotted for a long time.
Ye Siming seemed to have sensed it too, but he only looked around and frowned slightly without saying anything.
Xie Yinxiang rubbed her shoulders. “As expected of a summer resort. We’ve just walked in and I’m already feeling a little cold.”
When Butler Wu heard this, he smiled and nodded. “This has always been one of our villa’s specialties.”
Jiang Xiaoran walked in front and chatted with Butler Wu.
“Hmm? In the past, the long corridor and stone tables here were filled with people playing. Why is it empty this time?”
Butler Wu wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Young Marquis probably doesn’t know that after last summer, our villa’s business hasn’t been doing well.
“We don’t know what we did wrong, but the guests stopped coming over as time passed. It caused our boss to think that we didn’t serve them well! Sigh, we’ve really been wronged!”
Jiang Xiaoran was a little surprised. “In that case, there are plenty of rooms now. Is it alright if I want to change to four rooms?”
“Of course. To be honest, in the past few days, Young Marquis’s group is the only group of customers that we have.
“However, if you want rooms for four, one of the rooms won’t be able to be next to the small Lingyin Waterfall because there aren’t enough rooms there. So, how should we make the arrangements?”
Jiang Xiaoran looked back at Gu Nuo’er. Before he could ask, the child said softly—
“I’m afraid of the dark. I’ll sleep with Elder Sister Yinxiang at night. There are only three rooms. We won’t be afraid since we’ll be next to each other!”
Gu Nuo’er’s eyes were sparkling, her gaze childish and innocent.
