Li Ruyan saw someone use mysterious powers to steam dry her wet clothes for the first time, and to her, it was incredibly unbelievable.
In her eyes, Lin Fei seemed more mysterious and enigmatic.
After collecting herself, Li Ruyan said to Lin Fei, "Thank you for rescuing me just now. May I ask the name of my benefactor?"
Lin Fei stood up from the ground and said, "No need to be so polite, Miss. My name is Lin Fei."
"I am Li Ruyan from Huadu City in the south." Li Ruyan handed Lin Fei his travel bag and asked, "Are you headed somewhere?"
"Oh, Miss Li is from the south. I'm actually planning to visit Huadu," Lin Fei responded.
Li Ruyan hadn't expected Lin Fei to be heading to Huadu, an idea occurred to her, and she said to Lin Fei, "Would Mr. Lin be willing to accompany me back to Huadu?"
Lin Fei was visiting the south for the first time after coming down the mountain, and he was quite unfamiliar with Huadu City. Having someone from Huadu accompany him seemed rather convenient.
So Lin Fei nodded, "Thank you for your trouble, Miss Li."
"Don't mention it, Mr. Lin. By the way, Mr. Lin, I'm twenty-three this year, probably older than you. Why not just call me Sister Ruyan from now on?" Li Ruyan smiled.
Lin Fei chuckled, "Sister Ruyan, I'm twenty this year, so you can just call me Lin Fei and not Mr. Lin in the future."
"Alright, I will call you Lin Fei," Li Ruyan nodded.
"By the way, Sister Ruyan, your clothes are wet. I have a training outfit in my travel bag. Why don't you temporarily change into it?" Lin Fei said enthusiastically as he found a set of white Tang-style clothing from his travel bag.
Li Ruyan looked awkward. She had never worn men's clothes since she was young, but wearing wet clothes indeed felt uncomfortable. Moreover, Lin Fei took out the clothes with a sincere expression, making it hard for her to refuse.
Fortunately, the white Tang-style outfit Lin Fei took out didn't show much gender distinction.
Li Ruyan had to accept the clothes from Lin Fei's hand, saying awkwardly, "Thank you."
Then, Li Ruyan took the clothes and walked into a secluded forest. After a while, she came out wearing the white Tang outfit.
Lin Fei's eyes lit up. Li Ruyan, in his white Tang outfit, with long hair draped over her shoulders, icy skin, jade-like complexion, deep and beautiful eyes, the Tang outfit perfectly revealed her ample chest, slender waist, perky hips, and long legs.
She exuded a sense of intellectual beauty with a touch of icy goddess aura.
Lin Fei genuinely praised Li Ruyan, "Sister Ruyan, I didn't expect you to look so stunning in Tang clothing!"
This was his heartfelt opinion; besides his senior sister, Li Ruyan looked the best in Tang clothing.
Li Ruyan showed a hint of embarrassment, but hearing Lin Fei's praise made her quite happy inside.
"Lin Fei, shall we go?"
"Yes, the nearest place to catch a ride from here is Wujia Town."
"Lin Fei, I have a car in Wujia Town. You can ride in my car then."
Lin Fei quickly said, "Sister Ruyan, thank you so much."
"Don't mention it." Having said that, Li Ruyan walked toward the valley exit.
On the way, Lin Fei asked Li Ruyan, "By the way, Sister Ruyan, how did you end up coming here from the south? And why did those thugs want to harm you?"
Li Ruyan calmly explained, "I came to Tianfu City in Sichuan Province for business negotiations. The reason for coming to Kunlun Mountain was, first, to enjoy the scenery; second, before departing, my grandfather asked me to visit an elderly man in Kunlun Mountain who once saved his life.
So I brought four bodyguards to Kunlun Mountain, not expecting them to be bribed by an enemy of mine, intending to kill me in the mountain. Luckily, you saved me, or I might not have made it back this time."
Lin Fei thought to himself: So she is a businesswoman.
Sichuan Province's Tianfu City is quite close to the Kunlun Mountain range, but finding an elderly man in such a vast Kunlun Mountain is no easy task.
"By the way, why are you going to Huadu?" Li Ruyan then asked Lin Fei.
Lin Fei, a bit embarrassed, replied, "A matchmaking meeting."
"Matchmaking? Well... Congratulations to you then," Li Ruyan said.
Lin Fei awkwardly replied, "Thank you..."
He really couldn't mention that he was actually going to Huadu for a marriage cancellation.
Li Ruyan was unfamiliar with the mountain paths; she initially had a map and phone navigation, but later, when the four bodyguards acted with ill intentions, she lost everything during her escape.
However, Lin Fei had grown up in Kunlun Mountain and knew the paths like the back of his hand.
At noon, under Lin Fei's guidance, Li Ruyan finally exited the mountain and arrived at the nearest town outside the mountain, Wujia Town.
Wujia Town is located outside the Kunlun Mountain range, serving as a key entry point into Kunlun Mountain from Sichuan Province, attracting many visitors, which contributes to the town's bustling prosperity.
Wujia Town, with only ten thousand residents, has many inns, hotels, malls, and even a hospital.
Lin Fei followed Li Ruyan to the most luxurious hotel in Wujia Town, where he discovered that Li Ruyan had quite a few accompanying staff members, including a female secretary, assistants, and bodyguards, totaling over a dozen people.
However, the four bodyguards taught a lesson by Ye Star were nowhere to be seen, probably having fled the area.
Hearing these people respectfully address Li Ruyan as the CEO, Lin Fei vaguely realized that the Li Ruyan he saved in the mountains might be the CEO of a major company.
When introducing Lin Fei to her staff, Li Ruyan simply said they met in Kunlun Mountain.
The secretaries, assistants, and bodyguards, seeing Lin Fei as Li Ruyan's friend, also politely called him Mr. Lin.
In the hotel, Li Ruyan changed into a black professional OL outfit, tied her long hair into a bun, giving Lin Fei another glimpse of what mature elegance truly meant.
The tightly-fitted OL suit accentuated Li Ruyan's perfectly curved figure, with slender jade-like legs stepping on a pair of white high heels with red soles, the new Swarovski crystal-adorned high heels series.
She radiated the noble beauty and commanding aura of a female CEO.
This was completely different from the casual sportswear and Tang outfit Li Ruyan wore before; it felt as if she was a different person.
During lunch in the hotel lobby, Li Ruyan and Lin Fei sat at a table, eating western food, it was Lin Fei's first time eating western food, feeling awkward using a knife and fork.
But Li Ruyan, like a big sister, personally used the knife and fork to cut the steak and placed it on Lin Fei's plate.
The icy CEO Li Ruyan being so intimate with Lin Fei caught the attention of secretaries, assistants, and bodyguards at other tables, all curious and envious about Lin Fei's identity.
After all, these secretaries and assistants who frequently accompany Li Ruyan had never seen her treat anyone else like she treated Lin Fei.
So, they whispered among themselves: "We've never seen this Mr. Lin before, who could he be?"
"The CEO went to Kunlun Mountain with four bodyguards this morning, why did she return with only Mr. Lin?"
"And did you notice, when the CEO returned, she and Mr. Lin were wearing matching Tang outfits, could Mr. Lin be the CEO's old flame?"
"Looks like our CEO might have good news coming soon."
These secretaries and assistants already considered Lin Fei as Li Ruyan's romantic interest.
While dining, Li Ruyan and Lin Fei naturally overheard the whispers from the secretaries, assistants, and bodyguards.
Lin Fei awkwardly looked at Li Ruyan, using a tone only she could hear, "Sister Ruyan, it seems we are misunderstood!"
Li Ruyan elegantly cut a piece of steak, skewered it with a fork, and under the watchful eyes of others, placed it on Lin Fei's plate, as if nothing had happened, saying, "The steak here is good, eat more."
Secretaries, assistants, and bodyguards at surrounding tables instantly wore exaggerated expressions, exclaiming, "Such a big dose of love food!~~~"
Lin Fei felt an urge to faint; he intended to remind Li Ruyan to keep some distance, but unexpectedly, she placed steak on his plate in front of everyone, leading to further misunderstandings.
After finishing the western meal at the hotel, Lin Fei, Li Ruyan, and the group boarded several black Audis and left Wujia Town, arriving at the international airport in Tianfu City, Sichuan Province an hour later.
The group boarded an airplane, and while in the restroom, Lin Fei casually learned from a beautiful flight attendant that the airplane belonged to Li Ruyan.
Returning to his seat, Lin Fei looked at Li Ruyan sitting beside him and couldn't help but ask, "Sister Ruyan, are you very wealthy?"
"Lin Fei, why do you suddenly ask that?" Li Ruyan was curious.
Lin Fei said, "Otherwise, how could Sister Ruyan afford a private airplane?"
"Who said buying an airplane means being wealthy? Besides, this plane is only around a billion," Li Ruyan spoke as if saying a hundred dollars casually.
Lin Fei felt unsettled: To Sister Ruyan, apparently a billion doesn't mean wealthy.
She is truly a wealthy one!
