Chapter 1187: I Want to Make You Stay (65)
“Just where are we going? Give me a hint,” Fang Erlan asked curiously.
“No, we’ll be there soon. Just know that it’s a good place.”
Seeing how secretive he was being, Fang Erlan smiled and said, “Alright, when we get there later, I must take a good look at how beautiful the place is.”
“You’ll know when we’re there.”“Hello, hello, you have a text message!”
Fang Erlan retracted her hand from his and opened her wallet to take out her mobile phone.
Her mobile screen lit up, and she saw that it was an unread message from Mrs. Fang.
Mr. and Mrs. Fang would only ever contact her via a phone call and never by text message.
Unless it was her brother…
She opened the text message to see that it was really from him.
“Sis, it’s me, Yunxi. The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th of August, which is also my birthday. Will you be coming home?”Fang Erlan replied, “I’m busy with work and I don’t have time to go home. Happy Birthday in advance.”
“Are you just going to wish me… Sis, aren’t you going to give me a present?”
Fang Erlan replied briefly, “I’ll make it up to you when we meet again in the future.”
“Got it.”
Fang Erlan shut off her mobile phone and placed it inside her bag. Yan Ge asked, “Who sent you a text message?”
“My brother.”
“How old is your brother? I’ve never heard you talking about him before.”
“His birthday is coming soon, and he’ll be turning eighteen this year. We didn’t grow up together and I’m not very close to him. We don’t share many memories either, so there’s nothing much for us to talk about. Simply put, I’m not close to my family at all, except my grandmother. They live in the city and they rarely go home, so I don’t see him.”
“They’re still your family anyway. You’re related to them by blood.”
“No. I didn’t say that I wasn’t going to support my parents through their retirement. After all, they were the ones who gave birth to me. I ought to do what’s within my duty. I can’t force myself to be harsh,” said Fang Erlan.
“If we get married in the future and my mother is still prejudiced against you, will you be nice to her?”
Fang Erlan gazed at him and asked, “Do you want to hear the truth?”
“Yes.”
“If your mother stops being prejudiced against me before we get married, I’ll still be kind and nice to her. I’ll be polite even if she doesn’t like me. However, if she still holds grudges against me and says callous things to me, I’ll just pretend that she doesn’t exist. I won’t argue with her. However, if she keeps insulting me, I’ll have no choice but to avoid her or ignore her.”
“My mother is definitely not an unreasonable person. She’ll only be prejudiced against you temporarily. I believe she’ll change her opinion of you once she gets to know you better.”
“I really don’t know if she will,” said Fang Erlan, who felt that Mrs. Yan would never change her opinion of her.
It would be hard to change someone’s opinions of you once they’ve been formed.
“But you still have me, don’t you? It’ll be alright,” he said, smiling.
The car proceeded along the quiet roads toward the outskirts of B City.
Although she had already been filming in B City for a significant period of time, Fang Erlan was not familiar with the city at all.
Usually, she would either be at the hotel or the filming location.
There was no chance for her to explore other areas in B City at all.
They arrived at a porch in the suburbs of B City. Fang Erlan alighted and stared wide-eyed at the scenery before her. “Where is this?”
With one hand in his pocket, Yan Ge said to her with a smile, “The night view here in this porch is beautiful. I heard that it dates all the way back to a thousand years ago. The house still looks the same as it did in the past. However, the residences around here have been renovated a few times before. My friends have stayed here before for a night. They said that it’s beautiful and told me to come whenever I have the chance to. There’s a small lake in there too. A lot of people have been here before. Let’s go inside.”
Fang Erlan was led inside the mansion by Yan Ge.
Staring at the two red lanterns that were hung on the door, she could not help but find the place breathtaking.
Yan Ge warned her to be careful of the high gate.
Fang Erlan looked inside to see that bright lights filled the room.
“This place looks very spacious.”
“I heard that it can house more than fifty guests a day, so there should be ample room inside.”
“Are there any special spots in this place?”
“There’s a lake near the night-view observation spot. I heard that the view is spectacular. This is my first time here, so I’ve decided to take you here too.” Yan Ge took out his wallet and said, “I’ll go get a room number. Wait for me on this bench. Don’t wander off on your own.”
“Okay.”
Fang Erlan sat on the bench and watched him walk away. Placing her hands by her side, she stared at the sky.
The sky was pitch dark with no stars in sight at all.
Yan Ge returned with a room card and he handed it to her. “Take it.”
She took a look at it and asked, “You only got one room?”
“Yes,” Yan Ge said with glistening eyes and a gentle smile. Fang Erlan had a hunch that he had especially arranged for them to stay there tonight.
It was only normal for an exclusive couple to get intimate with each other.
She suppressed her inexplicable emotions and made her way up the stairs together with him to the observation deck.
“This feels strange…” The further she walked, the more she had a feeling of deja vu.
“What’s so strange?”
“I clearly haven’t been here before, but I’m getting this feeling that I have several times in the past. I’m actually starting to find it a little familiar…”
Yan Ge said in astonishment, “I find this place to be really fresh. It doesn’t seem familiar to me at all.”
“It would be beautiful if there was a fountain… on the observation deck.”
“There is one. Have you seen photos of this place before?” he asked.
Shaking her head, Fang Erlan answered, “No, but… is there really a fountain there?”
“Yes, there really is. You’ll know when you’re up there. It’s mesmerizing,” he said, grabbing her tightly and leading her to the top.
It was about three stories high and was indeed incredibly beautiful.
She felt as if she was on a celestial ground.
There were twenty-odd visitors snapping some photos of the picturesque view with their mobile phones.
Fang Erlan let go of Yan Ge’s hand and leaned back against the railing. Shock was written all over her face when she scanned her surroundings.
Sensing that there was something unusual with her, Yan Ge immediately asked, “Erlan, what’s wrong with you?”
Shaking her head, she answered, “I have no idea what’s wrong with me either.”
“Are you upset?”
“No, I’m very happy. Who doesn’t like beautiful things?” she said feebly while resting her elbows on the railing and supporting her face with her hands.
As soon as she finished speaking, Fang Erlan swayed toward the side. Yan Ge immediately grabbed her and said, “Erlan?”
