Flutter
In the distance, a skyscraper over two hundred meters tall rose from the ground.
As the tallest building in Yinghai, the Four Seasons Hotel Tower naturally offers a panoramic view, overlooking the entire Yinghai City.
"That's my property. You can stay here and relax." Zhang Yang pointed into the distance.
"Where? That entire building?" Tian Chuxi's eyes widened slightly.
"Of course," Zhang Yang said with a smile.
He didn't mean to show off at all, because this wasn't the first time he had displayed his immense wealth in front of Tian Chuxi. There was nothing strange about showing it off again now; it just made him appear even more imposing and unfathomable in Tian Chuxi's eyes.
And that is indeed the case.
At this moment, Tian Chuxi was surprised and shocked, but upon closer reflection, she didn't seem so surprised after all.
After all, Zhang Yang's wealth was like an abyss in her eyes. She always thought that what she saw was the whole picture, but later she found that everything was just the tip of the iceberg.
"That's great, I can finally relax completely." Tian Chuxi breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.
A moment later, the Cullinan drove straight in and stopped in front of the Four Seasons Hotel.
Zhang Yang led Tian Chuxi straight into the hotel lobby.
The astute lobby manager quickly approached, busily trying to curry favor.
"Hello, Mr. Zhang."
"Yes, good afternoon." Zhang Yang nodded slightly.
Beside them, Tian Chuxi, wearing sunglasses, stood quietly with her arm gently linked with Zhang Yang's.
The female lobby manager, who was no more than thirty years old, couldn't help but glance at the girl next to the boss for a moment, her eyes suddenly widening slightly.
The boss is naturally surrounded by girls.
Even if he brings a different girl every time he comes, and they are all stunningly beautiful, it's not surprising at all.
But this person in front of me...
That graceful figure, that pert nose behind those sunglasses, that fair chin... that powerful aura, wow, she's like a big star.
The lobby manager's heart skipped a beat, and he looked again with a focused gaze.
"Oh, and could you get me my room key?" Zhang Yang instructed. "Have all the executive floors cleared out? Don't put them out again after the guests check out."
"No!" Tian Chuxi gently pulled Zhang Yang back. "You don't need to do that. I'll be careful."
"I told you to come and have fun without worrying about anything," Zhang Yang said with a smile, while subtly gesturing to the lobby manager to take care of it.
The lobby manager naturally doesn't have that authority.
But if the boss personally gives the order, then there's no problem.
"Yes, Mr. Zhang, I'll take care of it right away." The lobby manager quickly agreed, trying his best to suppress the urge to glance at Mr. Zhang's female companion again.
In a split second, she recognized him.
Tian Chuxi!
She's quite a fan of Tian Chuxi's dramas.
She never expected to see Tian Chuxi in Yinghai under these circumstances. She never dared to dream of it, and judging from the boss's and Tian Chuxi's words and actions, this was... this was absolutely huge gossip.
However, no matter how big the gossip was, she could only keep it to herself.
A moment later, Zhang Yang and Tian Chuxi stepped into the elevator together, heading straight to the executive floor on the upper floors.
As for where Tian Chuxi would stay, it would naturally be the presidential suite that Zhang Yang always stayed in when he came to the Four Seasons Hotel. It was big and spacious enough. Although the Four Seasons Hotel was located in Yinghai, as a landmark of Yinghai, the presidential suite was extremely luxurious and no less than those top-tier suites that cost tens or hundreds of thousands of yuan a night.
As expected, Tian Chuxi's first reaction upon entering the presidential suite was one of awe and wonder.
"It's so big!"
She walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, perched high above the Yinghai landmark, and enjoyed a Yinghai view of the city. Her mood instantly brightened and relaxed.
"With me, everything is up to you. If you have any requests, just tell me directly, or talk to the general manager here." Zhang Yang smiled and put his arm around Tian Chuxi's waist, exploring her body with his hands. "I guarantee that you'll feel completely relaxed and at ease during this time."
"I just want to see things more clearly now," Tian Chuxi said, leaning closer and looking up, her eyes seemingly offering a silent invitation.
"No problem," Zhang Yang said with a smile.
Less than an hour after returning to Yinghai, Zhang Yang tirelessly fired his first shot.
The main reason was that I had my fill of hands-on activities with Ouyang Feifei on the terrace this morning, but it left me feeling awkward and unsatisfied. It's not good to just take off without landing.
Everything was settled, night fell outside, and lights shone from every house.
Zhang Yang took Tian Chuxi directly to dinner.
There's no need to go far afield; the food at the Four Seasons Hotel absolutely blows away any restaurant in Yinghai City, whether it's local cuisine or Chinese or Western food.
Zhang Yang especially praised the Chinese restaurant at the Four Seasons Hotel.
So, we headed straight to that Chinese restaurant.
The restaurant's management and head chef had already received word that the boss was coming to dine, so they reserved the best and most private seats, leaving them empty, and even cleared the room as requested.
So, when Tian Chuxi arrived at the restaurant...
The restaurant was quiet and secluded, as if the entire place was serving her alone.
The stars twinkled outside the floor-to-ceiling windows.
She sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, and the feelings she had were indescribable.
"Zhang Yang, did you prepare all of this for me?" Tian Chuxi looked around, her eyes filled with joy. "I'm a little overwhelmed, what should I do?"
"Feeling bad about it?" Zhang Yang said with a smile, "There are plenty of ways to repay you."
Tian Chuxi rolled her eyes at Zhang Yang.
"I've already gone through that with you, I really can't think of any other way to repay you."
"You can make even simple things interesting." Zhang Yang took Tian Chuxi's hand. "The scene you acted out at my villa in Beijing last time was pretty good. By the way, I've been catching up on your dramas lately, and I suddenly have a new idea."
Zhang Yang waved.
Tian Chuxi, not understanding what was going on, leaned closer to listen.
"It's that scene from your drama, slightly modified." Zhang Yang whispered something in Tian Chuxi's ear with a smile. "What do you think?"
In an instant, Tian Chuxi's face turned bright red.
"How annoying! This is such a poor acting style... Fine, if you insist on doing it that way, it's not impossible..."
She sat down, blushing, and scolded him playfully, but couldn't bring herself to say no to Zhang Yang.
Zhang Yang was just joking, but he didn't expect Tian Chuxi to agree so readily, and his heart immediately burned with excitement.
Is this even allowed?
"Real?"
"It seems I agreed too quickly. Let me think about it some more." Tian Chuxi's eyelashes trembled violently, and she deliberately looked away, pretending to be nonchalant.
There was no one else around.
The hotel staff had already wisely moved away, leaving Zhang Yang and Tian Chuxi with no space.
Zhang Yang blinked, smiled, stood up, and sat down next to Tian Chuxi.
A short while later...
"Are you still thinking about it? Hmm?"
"Good brother, I was wrong... Please be gentle..." Tian Chuxi finally began to beg for mercy, her voice trembling yet tender, reaching deep into the bones.
··
That evening, Tian Chuxi checked into the Four Seasons Hotel and began to experience what would be the most unforgettable period of her life so far.
Zhang Yang truly lived up to that promise, allowing her to relax and be completely at ease.
No need to be afraid of being exposed, no need to worry about paparazzi.
Without work or distractions, she can be completely relaxed, be herself again, and adjust her state of mind.
The Four Seasons Hotel is like a small world inside.
It has everything you could want for eating, drinking, and having fun.
Every morning, she wakes up in her hundreds-of-square-meter presidential suite, her eyes immediately meeting the sunrise over Yinghai City through the floor-to-ceiling windows. After breakfast, she either leisurely goes to the gym or swims in the pool, without worrying about being disturbed.
Of course, to achieve this, the cooperation of the hotel staff was required. Over time, her identity became an open secret within the hotel.
Everyone knows that the famous actress Tian Chuxi has checked into the hotel, and that her relationship with her boss is quite extraordinary.
During these days, Zhang Yang would appear from time to time, taking Tian Chuxi on a tour of Yinghai.
Although Yinghai is not a big city, it has its own unique scenery and local customs. Accompanied by Zhang Yang, the two walked through the streets and alleys of Yinghai, tasted every local snack, walked along every road with historical significance, and visited every scenic spot in Yinghai.
Their relationship continued to heat up, to the point that Tian Chuxi's gaze became increasingly strange.
At the seaside, the sea breeze is refreshing.
Zhang Yang and Tian Chuxi sat on the shore, looking at the boundless sea, reminiscing about the days they had spent together.
"It's been so long since I've felt this relaxed." Tian Chuxi hugged her knees, let her long hair down, and faced the sea breeze. "Zhang Yang..."
"Hmm?" Zhang Yang looked at her.
"Thank you for everything you've done for me." Tian Chuxi's eyes suddenly softened. "I've realized... I think I've fallen in love with you. What should I do?"
"Thanks, it means I'm charming." Zhang Yang said half-jokingly.
"A lot of girls have said that to you, right?" Tian Chuxi leaned gently on Zhang Yang's shoulder. "You've heard so many sweet words that it's no longer surprising?"
"Not really..." Zhang Yang casually put his arm around Tian Chuxi and offered a long explanation.
But as I continued explaining, all I heard was silence.
He met Tian Chuxi's eyes, only to find her smiling quietly as she looked at him.
"Huh? You..."
"Don't speak." Tian Chuxi suddenly pressed her lips to his, "What do you think is different from before?"
Zhang Yang was thinking to himself, "They're all kisses, what's the difference?"
But the next second, he paused, stunned.
The sound of the waves in my ears, the sweet scent in my nose, and the soft, lingering kiss that landed on my lips.
This kiss lacked the reckless passion and impulsiveness, but was filled with tender affection. Accompanied by the tide, the beach, the boundless sea, and the abandoned ship stranded in the distance, it seemed to carry an indescribable sense of destiny.
"I'll say it again, I think I've fallen in love with you." Tian Chuxi opened her arms and hugged Zhang Yang's neck tightly, whispering in his ear, "No, not just think..."
The sound of the waves remained the same, but Zhang Yang's heart stirred for no apparent reason.
··
During my time in Yinghai, the aftermath of Tian Chuxi's concert was only just beginning.
Despite being an actress, she created a sensational and phenomenal effect at someone else's concert, which moved everyone present. Naturally, her popularity soared with the help of various spontaneous and proactive efforts.
The popularity remains high.
Amidst such turmoil, Tian Chuxi remained undisturbed by the outside world, content to stay in Yinghai, spending her days and nights with Zhang Yang, sharing a pillow several times, oblivious to the clamor of the world.
Until some music industry giants and big names came to them, actively seeking collaboration.
"I have a vague feeling that multitasking is a bit..." Tian Chuxi nestled against Zhang Yang's chest, her fair shoulders exposed, "Do you really think I should also try to develop my career in the music industry?"
She seemed somewhat worried, and her worries were not unfounded.
Success is only possible when you focus on one thing at a time. She is currently at a rare and promising peak in her acting career, and should be wholeheartedly dedicated to her acting career, but instead, she is distracted by singing.
Something just doesn't feel right.
There are stars who excel in acting and then transition to singing, but very few can achieve great success in both.
"Give it a try. Everyone knows Wang Jingwen is a pop diva, but she's only starred in five movies, yet she's won two Best Actress awards." Zhang Yang stroked Tian Chuxi's smooth back. "She actually started out as an actress."
"How can I compare to Queen Wang?" Tian Chuxi said softly.
"It might not work now, but it might work later," Zhang Yang said with a smile. "Let's give it a try. If it doesn't work, we can always turn the car around."
"Okay!" Tian Chuxi nodded without hesitation after hearing Zhang Yang's words.
Although Zhang Yang is not familiar with the music scene, he has friends in Beijing who are deeply involved in it. Moreover, these friends have considerable influence in the music industry, owning their own record company with many well-known singers under their wing.
More importantly, he also knows many big names in the industry, those who have created singles for true superstars and rarely come out of retirement.
He could easily put in a good word and protect Tian Chuxi.
His influence in Beijing circles has skyrocketed. The massive project worth tens of billions in Beijing not only proved his strength but also earned him a large following of admirers and followers.
This is such a trivial matter that it doesn't need much explanation.
Under the cover of night, on the eve of their parting, Tian Chuxi was unusually wild tonight, but she never mentioned anything that happened at the beach that day.
Zhang Yang didn't mention it, but simply felt Tian Chuxi's passion deeply until late at night, when they fell asleep in each other's arms.
The next morning, a nanny van that had come from Magic City was parked downstairs at the Four Seasons Hotel.
Zhang Yang and Tian Chuxi bid each other a reluctant farewell.
"I'm leaving." Tian Chuxi stood in front of Zhang Yang, looking up with a hint of expectation. "Is there anything you want to say to me?"
"Take care on your journey, there are many people around." Zhang Yang glanced at the people coming and going, blinked, and said, "Happy New Year in advance."
"You too." Tian Chuxi put on her sunglasses and smiled.
Before parting, the two gave each other a brief hug, and then Zhang Yang watched Tian Chuxi walk into the nanny van not far away.
A moment later, the nanny van drove away and disappeared into the traffic.
Zhang Yang stood still, looked back at the hotel staff who were busy decorating the hotel with a Chinese New Year theme, and then it dawned on him.
The Spring Festival is really almost here.
