The food at the hotel has already been ordered, so just go there later.

"...Ah, that's okay." Li Peilin was thinking about the luggage in his trunk, and still hesitated: "How about... you go first, and I go back to the hotel first and put the luggage away?"

After all, it's such a big box, and it contains a lot of information. Wouldn't it be bad to drag it around like this?

It also consumes a lot of fuel.

In the end, Lu Huaian shook his head and stopped him: "No, no, it's very close, so there's no need to run back and forth. We can just go to the hotel together later."

Seeing his persistence, Li Peilin nodded: "That...that's okay."

In fact, according to what he said, this is really not necessary.

Just leave your luggage here at the hotel, I'll be back later anyway.

But Lu Huaian said so, and Li Peilin followed him.

I got in the car again and drove all the way.

I have to say that the changes in Beifeng are really big.

There are construction projects everywhere, and many high-rise buildings of various types have been built.

However, compared with foreign countries, it is naturally a bit inferior.

Hearing what he said, Lu Huaian couldn't help but laugh: "It's okay, I'll catch up soon."

Will it catch up?

Li Peilin nodded thoughtfully and sighed: "I hope so."

He felt that Lu Huaian might have never been abroad.

The distance between countries cannot be explained in just a few words.

It can no longer be explained by a short distance, it should be a chasm.

Lu Huaian raised his eyebrows but said nothing.

Anyway, he believes that China will definitely lead the world in the future.

This exists in his memory and has never faded.

But there is no need to say these things.

The car soon drove into a mountain village, and the surrounding scenery gradually changed.

The surrounding trees have obviously been pruned.

The layers are clear and well-proportioned.

Not to mention the occasional pavilion passing by and the tinkling bridge over flowing water.

Li Peilin is a literary man at heart, and he liked her very much at first sight.

He even forgot to speak and turned his head to stare seriously.

Along the way, you will see a different scene every step of the way. Everywhere is different.

He couldn't help but sigh softly: "This really cost a lot of money..."

"That's not true." Lu Huaian smiled and lowered his voice: "We also hired a master who has specially studied Feng Shui."

The place chosen is also a geomantic treasure, with water and mountains. The water is living water, which protects wealth.

Finally, the car stopped in front of a villa.

Li Peilin got out of the car and was quite surprised: "Is it yours?"

"How's it going?" Lu Huaian smiled slightly, very proudly: "The decoration is in a classic style, it's quite unique, right?"

The whole villa is built in a very low-key manner, but as soon as you walk inside you can see that the whole thing is definitely quite luxurious.

Just the screen wall and the long corridor were all a lot of thought.

Not to mention the paintings inside, Lu Huaian pointed: "This is not bad."

Li Peilin took a closer look and raised his eyebrows in surprise: "It's indeed very good."

It's everyone he likes, and looking at this scroll, it's definitely authentic.

"Of course it's the real thing. Ruyun went to take pictures specially."

Li Peilin almost didn't want to leave. He stood in front of the painting and looked at it for a while before moving.

Not to mention the study room inside. The entire wall is covered with bookcases. It looks empty, as if it is waiting for someone to fill it up.

Pushing open the window of the study room, the landscape of the backyard fell into view.

"It was also designed by someone, Jiangnan style." Lu Huaian explained later.

Li Peilin was filled with admiration and nodded repeatedly: "Good taste!"

He also liked this window very much. There was actually a small platform in front of the window, which looked like a bay window but not a bay window.

If it rains, open the window, sit sideways on this platform, listen to the rain hitting the banana trees, and read the pages of a book, it should be a very pleasant afternoon.

"And this." Li Peilin leaned out from the study and pointed to the small inkstone sink under the window: "This is really well designed."

This platform can also be used to spread paper and ink, and you can wash your pen as soon as you finish drawing.

A poplar tree was planted next to the inkstone. When the poplar flowers bloomed and floated into the pond, a few poplar flowers entered the inkstone.

There are green bamboos by the window, and the sunlight is shining in mottled patterns.

It is truly poetic and beautiful.

Li Peilin couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly and chanted softly: "The wind shakes the bamboo shadows and the bookmarks are scattered, and the flowers fall on the pond and the waves are fragrant."

Lu Huaian smiled slightly and led him out to have a look again.

Watching it all the way, Li Peilin praised it all the way.

He was really overjoyed. He felt that this house was different from all the houses he had seen when he came in just now.

It's not a Western-style villa, but a courtyard full of Chinese beauty.

Everywhere, he couldn't help but stop and admire it for a long time: "It's so beautiful."

"Like it?"

Li Peilin didn't even raise his head: "Of course I like it. Who doesn't like this kind of house?"

Lu Huaian smiled and stretched out his hand: "This is your house."

Um?

At that moment, Li Peilin didn't even react.

He raised his head blankly, and after a while he said: "Mine?"

"Yes." Lu Huaian put the key into his hand. It was cold but so warm: "Don't you think it looks familiar to Teacher Li?"

Many of the designs here come from his original notes.

It was Shen Ruyun who synthesized it, added it in detail, and finally completed this work.

Li Peilin opened his eyes slightly, and when he thought about it carefully, he realized that it was indeed: "It's the book I gave you a few years ago..."

"Yes."

I have never lost it and kept it well.

Lu Huaian led him to see the lotus pond again: "There are lotus seeds in it, but I'm afraid I won't see them this year, and they won't be distributed until next year."

The banana tree next to it is growing wildly, and its green leaves are particularly pleasing to the eye.

"...I have the lotus in the pond as my fan, and I love the bananas regardless of the wind." Li Peilin was so excited that his voice trembled.

This really touched his heart.

He wanted to say that he couldn't accept such an expensive gift, but every part of this house made him overjoyed.

However, no matter how happy he was, he still decided to refuse.

Because it's really too valuable.

Lu Huaian could tell what he was thinking at a glance, and pulled him carefully and said for a long time: "This is both a surprise and a thank you gift..."

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Since starting overseas business, Li Peilin has been traveling abroad.

To be honest, this was inconsistent with Lu Huaian's original intention of bringing him into the group.

However, Li Peilin is too capable, and his position cannot be replaced by ordinary people, so he can only be wronged.

"So don't refuse, you deserve it."

And there are many people in the group.

It's just that everyone else's is just a blank and they can decorate it themselves.

After all, Li Peilin is away from the country all year round. Shen Ruyun and the others considered that he might not have time to decorate it by himself, so they thought of decorating it according to his preferences and giving him a surprise.

"That was indeed a surprise."
