"Wow, isn’t this place just beautiful?" Jian Dan was captivated by the scenery outside the window as soon as she entered the room.
Though it was already dark and much of the scenery outside was no longer visible, what caught Jian Dan’s attention was the lake illuminated by lights.
"Right? Doesn’t it feel like the sudden refusal to e here was really worth it?" Mo Qingqin also came to the window.
"Granny, why is that lake so perfectly round? Is it man-made?" Jian Dan stared intently at the circular lake outside the window.
"It’s naturally formed! That’s what makes it special!"
"Naturally?" Jian Dan couldn’t believe what she was hearing.
"This is the magic of nature."
"It’s really incredible, how can it be so perfectly round?" Because the shape of the lake was a very regular circle, it was truly hard to believe that it was naturally formed.
"The beauty here is not just limited to this one scene. Tomorrow I’ll take you to an even more beautiful place, I guarantee you’ll absolutely fall in love with it."
The beautiful view at this moment made Jian Dan momentarily forget all her worries.
Seeing Jian Dan awestruck by the beauty before her, Mo Qingqin continued, "This place isn’t just about the scenery, there is also..." As she spoke, she opened the window, for some things need to be experienced firsthand to be fully appreciated.
The moment the window was opened, Jian Dan was stunned. The pure and abundant oxygen here was like being in an oxygen bar, actually even better, for the air here was also tinged with the faint scent of grass, instantly clearing the mind and uplifting the spirit.
"Granny, how did you know about such a great place? How e you never brought us here before?"
"I’ve just discovered it recently! I wanted to bring you guys here, it’s all that darn Old Man’s fault."
"No way, Granny, what exactly has Grandpa done? Tell me the whole story!"
The two sat by the window on the chairs, "Since I came back from my trip, he’s been speaking to me in such a weird tone, and he keeps going out all the time. Let’s not talk about that, what really gets me angry is, even when he stays at home, aside from watching TV or reading newspapers, he ignores me pletely. He even has the audacity to say he needs his alone time. Fine! I’ll give him all the alone time he wants! I left the whole old house to him, to let him thoroughly enjoy it on his own!" Mo Qingqin’s chest heaved with anger as she spoke.
"Grandpa really said that?" Jian Dan couldn’t believe her ears.
Considering what Jian Dan knows about Grandpa, how could he possibly say such things to Granny?
"Would I be this angry if it weren’t true?"
Jian Dan was puzzled, but seeing Granny so upset, it didn’t seem like she was lying. So where exactly did the problem lie?
She would just have to wait until Granny fell asleep tonight and then call her uncle to find out what was going on.
After bathing, Jian Dan and Mo Qingqin both went to bed to rest. Lying in bed with her cellphone in hand, Jian Dan thought about going outside to make a phone call after Granny fell asleep, because she found no signal when she tried again in the bathroom earlier.
About half an hour later, Jian Dan got out of bed tiptoeing so as not to wake Granny. With each step taken extremely carefully, it took her nearly three minutes to leave the room...
Once outside the B&B, Jian Dan kept changing positions with her phone, searching for a signal, but despite trying countless spots, she still couldn’t find any signal.
Actually, Mo Qingqin had not fallen asleep at all. She knew Jian Dan was getting up the moment she did. After Jian Dan left the room, she wrapped herself in a piece of clothing and followed behind. Seeing the lass fiddling with her phone searching for a signal was quite ical. Finally, unable to bear seeing the lass continue to feed the mosquitoes outside, she went over...
