Chapter 205 Plum Garden
Wen Lan followed Jiang Jingci out of the back door of the hall, and then walked through a long corridor and bluestone road to a wooden door with "Plum Garden" written on it.
A refreshing plum fragrance hit her face.
Wen Lan's spirit was immediately shocked.
The wooden door was a bit mottled vermilion, and a brass lock was inserted on it. Jiang Jingci skillfully opened the wooden door with the key given by the manager.
"The plum garden has 500 white plums and 500 red plums, and the four corners are decorated with some winter plums. They are in full bloom at this time of year." Jiang Jingci said and made a gesture to her.
She was already intoxicated by the clear fragrance of plum blossoms and couldn't extricate herself. Before Jiang Jingci made way for her, she hurried into the plum garden.
Rows of white and red plums quietly opened in the cold wind, and the north wind blew, and they fell to the ground.
There was a gurgling stream in the plum garden, and there were a few small pavilions sparsely, which was very artistic.
When she was studying, she had the leisure to go to the park. In the past two years, she has been traveling back and forth between the Xie family and TT. She has been entangled in work and trivial matters every day, and she has forgotten that there are still beautiful scenery in the world to appreciate.
There are only her and Jiang Jingci in the huge plum garden. She is still wrapped in the blanket from Jiang Jingci's car, wandering among the plum trees, feeling more peaceful and calm than ever before.
Jiang Jingci saw that she was in a good mood, so he didn't dare to disturb her. He found a pavilion closest to her and sat down. He quietly turned on his mobile phone and took pictures of her.
A few birds looking for food suddenly flew over Wen Lan, and Wen Lan came back to her senses.
Jiang Jingci had seen her walking towards him from the camera of his mobile phone, and he quickly closed his mobile phone and stood up, "Is this place not bad?"
"This is a good place to calm people down." She said sincerely, reaching out to catch the plum blossoms falling in the wind.
Jiang Jingci walked down from the pavilion, smiled and stared at her: "If you really like it, come often in the future. From today on, I will have the garden sealed off and reserved for you."
She was slightly stunned, "There is no need for this! Such a beautiful garden, if more people can't appreciate its beauty, what is the meaning of its existence?"
"This is not a park, it's my private garden. Those who can stop here are old customers of Mingyue Villa. Since it can catch your eye, it has found its meaning of existence." Jiang Jingci's eyes flashed with determination.
At this time, Wen Lan was not flattered and happy, but felt an inexplicable pressure.
This was only the first day they started dating, and Jiang Jingci was going to give her an expensive imperial green bracelet. She just said that this was a good place, and Jiang Jingci was going to seal the garden for her!
If she broke up a month later, would Jiang Jingci do something more destructive?
"Old Jiang, you put a lot of pressure on me." She frowned slightly, "If you are taking a material offensive against me, then let's end it as soon as possible."
"Since you don't like me doing this, just tell me, I will never force you." Jiang Jingci immediately became nervous, "We just started to get along, I still don't know you well enough, if you say it's over, I will die with my eyes open."
Wen Lan was amused by his expression and wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, and hurriedly said: "Now let's talk about it, this matter will be over."
"In front of you in the future, I will talk less and do more." Jiang Jingci's eyebrows relaxed.
In order to ease the current embarrassment, Wen Lan made small talk, "So, this garden is yours."
"Ten years ago, I thought the price was okay, so I bought the land here. At that time, it was still desolate, and there was only a bumpy cement road leading to the city-" Jiang Jingci was talking, and the manager who had just delivered the key walked in hurriedly.
"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Duan is here, waiting for you in Room 1."
"Tell Wen Zheng I'll be there soon." Jiang Jingci nodded slightly, and the manager bowed and left.
When Wen Lan heard that it was Duan Wenzheng, she felt a little disappointed.
The last time she appeared in front of Duan Wenzheng, she was still Xie Yansheng's wife, and now she has nothing to do with Xie Yansheng...
"You know Duan Wenzheng too, let's go together, right?" Jiang Jingci didn't dare to make a decision on his own, and looked at her inquiringly.
She shook her head, "I'll stay here for a while, and I won't go."
"Okay." Jiang Jingci just agreed and remembered something, "The easternmost room on the top floor of Building 2 is my lounge. If you are tired, you can go and rest for a while. The door code is three sixes plus three zeros."
"Go and get busy." Wen Lan smiled and said goodbye.
Jiang Jingci stood a few steps away from her, and suddenly raised his right hand, picked up a white plum blossom above her head, and handed it to her.
When she took it, their fingertips touched.
Jiang Jingci took her hand and said distressedly: "It's so cold? The highest temperature today is only zero degrees. Why don't you go to my lounge to warm up."
"I haven't seen such beautiful plum blossoms for a long time. I'll stay for a while." She pulled her hand out of Jiang Jingci's palm and said, "Go quickly, don't keep people waiting too long."
"Remember to call me as soon as you have something." Jiang Jingci tried several times before taking his eyes away from her.
Wen Lan thought she could avoid Duan Wenzheng, but she didn't expect to meet him when she walked out of the plum garden.
Duan Wenzheng had heard about her divorce from Xie Yansheng a long time ago.
When Duan Wenzheng saw her appear in Jiang Jingci's territory, he immediately guessed their relationship and called her "Miss Wen" coldly.
With his understanding of Xie Yansheng and the friendship between the two since childhood, he would never bless Wen Lan and Jiang Jingci.
Wen Lan wanted to ask him if Xiang Mo had finished her confinement, but was choked by his disdainful tone, so she replied indifferently: "Mr. Duan".
"I have asked the kitchen to cook a few more dishes tonight, so don't leave. Come spend the Lantern Festival with me and Lan Lan." Jiang Jingci is also a perceptive person. In order to show his intimacy with Wen Lan, he deliberately called out "Lan Lan".
"I have a lovely wife and son at home, so I won't bother you today." Duan Wenzheng smiled, but the smile was fake.
Jiang Jingci personally sent Duan Wenzheng out of "Mingyue Villa" and asked Wen Lan to go to Building No. 2.
At this time, it was getting dark, and Wen Lan asked to go back to the hotel. Jiang Jingci frowned and said: "The food in the kitchen will be out of the pot soon. You should eat a little. There will be fireworks and folk performances here later. We will go back to the city after watching them."
Wen Lan suddenly realized that he had been "calculated" by Jiang Jingci again without knowing it.
She clearly said that she didn't want to go to a noisy place or watch folk performances, but now she is about to experience everything.
She didn't like the feeling of being secretly calculated, but she didn't want to tear her face because of such a small matter, "Let's go back after dinner. I don't want to watch the fireworks this year."
"Wen Lan." Jiang Jingci's eyes narrowed slightly, "I just want you to know that what Xie Yansheng can give you, I can also give you."
