Chapter 184: I Will Follow You Closely
She turns on the recorder and says, "John, please repeat what you just said."
"You are really smart." John laughs and repeats what he just said.
After recording, Lily gives the contract to John, saying, "I won't take your shares for nothing. You should
sign this."
John does not refuse, and he signs the contract.
They finally make an agreement.
After dinner, because Lily has drunk some red wine, John asks his driver to drive Lily home.
When the car arrives, John asks her, "When are we leaving?"
"I'll see you at the airport the morning of the day after tomorrow." Lily hopes they can go through those
seven days as soon as possible. However, there is a lot of work to do in the company, so she must find
an excuse in case Louis asks.
"Alright," John agreed, "See you the day after tomorrow."
After Lily enters the villa, John withdraws his gaze and leaves.
To Lily's surprise, Louis is in the living room. When she opens the door, she is shocked. "President
Smith, I thought you were sleeping," she says.
"It's only nine o'clock." Louis notices that her cheeks are slightly blushed, and she seems to have
drunk, so he pours her a cup of tea.
After drinking the tea, Lily is in better spirits. She says to Louis, "President Smith, I'm going out for a
few days. I'll leave the work in the company to Mr. Leigh."
Louis' eyes flickers, and he asks, "Are you going to deal with something important?"
Lily nods.
She sees this as returning Louis' favor.
In the next two days, Lily gives the work in the company to Leigh, hires a maid for Louis, then briefly
packs her suitcase and takes a taxi to the airport.
John waits in the lobby of the airport. After Lily comes, he takes the suitcase in her hand naturally.
"Let's board."
Lily is not used to his touch, so she quietly keeps a distance between John and her.
"Darling, you must know which one is worth more: your company's shares or seven days," John grabs
Lily's shoulder and says, "I hope your attitude towards me can be the same as when we were dating."
Lily takes a deep breath.
She has agreed to this deal. She can't break it before it even starts. She must endure.
It's just seven days of pretending to be gentle. It is not a big deal!
She can do it!
After self-enlightening, Lily tries to force a smile and says, "When will our plane take off?"
"My private jet can leave at any time."
"..."
Lily doesn't want to say anything.
After arriving at the airport apron, Lily sees the private jet in the corner. It looks small, but inside it is
spacious, as a luxurious hotel suite.
Soon a flight attendant comes over and asks, "Miss, would you like a drink or dessert?"
"A glass of orange juice, please."
"Okay!" The flight attendant looks to John and says in a more courteous tone, "Mr. Dawn, what about
you? Do you need some wine?"
John doesn't even look at her, saying, "The same as my girlfriend."
"So, she's your girlfriend." The flight attendant's expression immediately changes. She smiles
embarrassedly and leaves.
"John, what's wrong with you?" When the flight attendant leaves, Lily suppresses her anger and says,
"I agree to accompany you to Hanchi for seven days, but that doesn't mean that I will be your
girlfriend."
John crosses his arms and gracefully smiles, saying, "Haven’t I made it clear? I hope your attitude Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
towards me is the same as when we were dating in the past. So, it's not wrong to say that you're my
girlfriend."
Damn it!
Lily gets quite angry because she has fallen into his linguistic trap.
It's just seven days! Try to endure it!
Very quickly, the plane takes off. Lily watches the ground shrink bit by bit until she can't see it at all. But
she is thinking about Louis and whether the servants she hired will treat him badly.
John asks, "Are there any interesting places in Hanchi?"
"Are you asking me?"
John nods and says, "I hear that there are many places of interest in Hanchi, but I have never been
there before."
"What?" Lily rolls her eyes and says unhappily, "You are taking me there by this private jet. I thought
you knew where to have fun. I overestimated you."
"It's not too late for us to discuss where to go now." John likes Lily's unrestrained manner, which makes
him feel better as well. He gives the notebook to her and says, "It's up to you."
"Why don't you decide it by yourself?"
John smiles gently and says, "You are the one who prepared the travel guides in the past."
"Because you used to settle everything with money. With a bunch of people serving you, there was no
fun at all!"
Lily mutters, and then she realizes that she speaks too much. So, she stops.
John supports his chin with his hand and looks fixedly at the woman in front of him. He can't hide the
affection in his eyes. He wishes that the plane will be flying in the sky forever and never reaches its
destination.
There are not many interesting places to have fun. Lily randomly picks a few scenic spots with fewer
tourists and asks John for his opinion.
John just says, "Anywhere is okay."
Lily is so angry that she has nothing to say.
Two hours later, the plane arrived at Hanchi Airport.
They take a taxi to the Bulgari Hotel downtown.
Entering the hotel, Lily says to the receptionist, "One suite and one standard, please."
"Getting two rooms is too wasteful. Just one presidential suite." John glances at her and teases, "Don't
be so wary of me. I don't eat people."
Lily ignores him and smiles at the receptionist, saying, "A presidential suite."
The price of this presidential suite is six times that of the two rooms she wanted to order just now!
When Lily takes the room card and leaves, she hears the two receptionists behind her muttering, "Oh
my God, if my boyfriend is as handsome as that man, he can do anything to me!"
Richard feels embarrassed.
When she checks out, she must make a complaint about these two receptionists!
The presidential suite is like a palace. The room they live in is decorated in the style of the 18th century
palace, and it is filled with the aura of luxury. No wonder it is so expensive.
Lily throws herself into the soft bed and doesn't feel like moving at all. She lies for a while and gets up.
She goes to the bathroom to wash her face and change her clothes.
After leaving her room, she glances at John's clothes and feels embarrassed immediately.
John has taken off his suit and changed into smoky grey casual clothes. His figure looks even better in
such clothes. And Lily wears a smoky grey skirt as well. It looks like they are wearing lovers.
"I'll go change my clothes."
Lily turns around and wants to go back to her room, but John shouts, "This skirt is very nice, don't
change it."
"..."
Fine, whatever!
It's already afternoon. Lily doesn't want to be too tired. So, she plans to tour around Ivy Road with John
on a car of the hotel and then take the sightseeing cruise.
Unfortunately, the hotel's business cars are all out to pick up people. They stand by the side of the road
for a long time but there is still no taxi. They have to take the subway.
Lily buys the ticket and gives one to John, saying, "Follow me closely. There are many people on the
subway today."
But after she finishes speaking, she feels a little weird and quickly adds, "I mean, don't get lost on the
subway."
John nods lightly and says with a smile, "I will follow you closely."
Lily lowers her head and walks quickly.
This weekend happens to be a local festival, so there are a lot of people on the subway now, especially
on Line 2, which passes six scenic spots.
When the third subway comes, Lily finally gets into the subway.
The subway is crammed. Lily is almost be squeezed into the arms of a man in a vest, and the strong
smell of sweat suffocates her.
She’d rather die!
Fortunately, John pulls her back and blocks himself between Lily and that man, allowing her to squeeze
into his arms. His broad chest and pleasant smell are a relief for Lily.
