The Cinnabar Mole of a Beijing Circle Tycoon

The afternoon breeze swept across the rolling green hills on the outskirts of Beijing, leaving the city's hustle and bustle far behind.

The black Bentley Mulsanne cruised smoothly along the winding road, with lush holly trees lining the roadside and the occasional clear bird song drifting by. The air was filled with the unique freshness of the mountains and fields.

Shen Qingyao leaned against Meng Jiangyu's side, playing with his fingers, casually turning their wedding rings, and watching the scenery outside the window rushing past.

"I never imagined there was such a beautiful place in the outskirts of Beijing."

Meng Jiangyu held her hand, his fingertips gently stroking her fingertips, a faint smile on his lips, his voice deep and magnetic: "This piece of land does indeed have a beautiful view, and Yanqiu also used connections to get it at a premium."

"Ayu, is that the resort over there? Why do I see so many European castles?" Shen Qingyao asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Yes, it was built like a small town in Provence, France."

Just as he finished speaking, Meng Jiangyu's phone rang. Lu Linchuan sent a message in their group chat: "Where is everyone? Wanwan and I just passed the observation deck and will be there soon."

Meng Jiangyu replied, "We'll be there soon too."

"Okay, I'll wait for you in the parking lot," Lu Linchuan replied.

Zhou Yanqiu replied, "Mingxuan and I are already at the parking lot, waiting for you."

"Sister Su Wan is pregnant, is it convenient for her to come out?"

Meng Jiangyu put down his phone, looked down at Shen Qingyao beside him, and reached out to tidy up the stray hairs on her forehead: "They said the pregnancy is stable, so I came out for some fresh air."

Shen Qingyao's eyes lit up, her face full of joy: "That's perfect, I can talk to her."

As they spoke, the car entered the resort, and the scenery before them was instantly breathtaking.

The entire resort is built along the mountainside, with white-walled and red-tiled buildings scattered in an orderly fashion. Winding stone paths extend around the buildings, and the roadside is filled with fragrant lavender and roses. Even the streetlights are retro wrought iron in style, making you feel as if you are in a small town in southern France.

On the distant hillside, several medieval-style castles stand quietly, their stone walls bearing the marks of time, blending seamlessly with the surrounding green hills and clear waters, creating a romantic and tranquil atmosphere.

In the open-air parking lot, Lu Linchuan's Maybach was parked to the side, and Lu Linchuan was leaning against the car talking to Su Wan with a gentle smile on his face.

Not far away, Xu Mingxuan's red Ferrari came to a stop. He leaned against the car door, and a slender woman with delicate features and a bright temperament stood beside him.

It was Wen Ran, a rising star in the entertainment industry who had recently gained popularity. Shen Qingyao had just watched her in a sweet romance drama on TV a few days ago.

Zhou Yanqiu leaned against the black Aston Martin, smoking a cigarette. Beside him was a young girl who looked to be in her early twenties. She was wearing a simple white dress, with long hair draped over her shoulders and delicate features, but her expression carried a hint of timid restraint.

The driver parked the car next to Lu Linchuan's car, and Meng Jiangyu helped Shen Qingyao out of the car, holding her bag in his other hand.

Staff came over, took the group's luggage, and led them to the check-in area.

Zhou Yanqiu, with Lin Xi, and Xu Mingxuan, with Wen Ran, came over to greet them.

Zhou Yanqiu put his arm around the girl's shoulder and raised an eyebrow at the crowd: "Let me introduce you, Lin Xi."

Lin Xi lowered her head slightly and whispered, "Hello, older brother and sister." She looked extremely shy.

Everyone responded with knowing smiles. Zhou Yanqiu was known for his frequent changes of female companions, but this time, the woman seemed unusually innocent.

Xu Mingxuan put his arm around Wen Ran and walked forward, teasing her with a smile: "Yanqiu, not bad, this time you changed to a fresh and clean style, which matches the style of your resort quite well."

Wen Ran smiled along, her eyes crinkling, and she greeted everyone with grace, saying, "Hello everyone, I'm Wen Ran." Compared to Lin Xi, she was much more composed.

Zhou Yanqiu raised his hand and gestured towards the resort: "Don't stand here chatting, everything's already arranged inside. Go check in first, and tonight you can try our resort's chef's cooking and also try the hot springs. I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

The group chatted and laughed as they walked in. The resort was surprisingly large, with winding stone paths and ever-changing scenery. Occasionally, they could see exquisite fountains and vintage sculptures, and the air was filled with the faint fragrance of flowers and plants.

"Yaoyao." Su Wan's smile was warm, her tone gentle, "I haven't seen you for a few days, and you've changed your hairstyle, you've become even more beautiful."

Su Wan's belly wasn't showing yet, but her figure was slightly rounder than before. Her eyes and brows held the gentleness of a new mother, and her whole being exuded a soft aura.

"Thank you for the compliment, Sister Su Wan."

"After I give birth to my child, I'll get a French perm."

"Great! You'll look amazing with this perm."

The check-in area is a retro-style detached house with a light luxury French style interior. Warm yellow lighting, exquisite crystal chandeliers, and retro murals show meticulous attention to detail everywhere.

Meng Jiangyu put his arm around Shen Qingyao's waist and took the room key from the staff.

Zhou Yanqiu prepared detached villas with the best views, arranged in pairs, which made it convenient to gather together while preserving private space.

Meng Jiangyu held Shen Qingyao's hand and led her to the room by the staff. The room was located next to the castle, and you could see the green mountains when you opened the window.

The room was decorated in a warm and exquisite manner, with various daily necessities prepared according to the couple's preferences, showing attention to detail in every aspect.

Shen Qingyao strolled around the villa. "Ayu, there's a hot spring right in the yard! That's so convenient!"

"Hmm, how about we try this hot spring tonight?"

After a short rest, the group went to the resort's French restaurant, led by the staff.

The restaurant is built by the lake, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering views of the shimmering water and swaying reeds.

The interior is decorated in a romantic and elegant style, with melodious piano music flowing in the air and candlelight flickering, creating a wonderful atmosphere.

The head chef was specially invited back from France by Zhou Yanqiu. His skills are superb. The appetizers, main courses and desserts are presented in a progressive manner, and each dish is as exquisite as a work of art, with an excellent taste.

At the dinner table, everyone toasted and drank, creating a lively and harmonious atmosphere.

Lu Linchuan lingered around Su Wan the whole time, peeling shrimp and deboning them for her, his every move exuding tenderness.

Su Wan leaned against him, her eyes filled with happiness. She occasionally scolded him for being too cautious, but still obediently listened to him.

Meng Jiangyu sat beside Shen Qingyao, cutting her steak and placing the small pieces on her plate. "Baby, what do you think of the taste?"

Shen Qingyao nodded, her eyes full of smiles: "It's delicious, even more authentic than the French restaurants in the city."

She looked up at Meng Jiangyu and fed him a piece of steak, saying, "You eat too."

Meng Jiangyu opened his mouth and ate, his smile growing even gentler. He lightly brushed her nose with his fingertips, a gesture that was both intimate and natural.

Laughter and conversation filled the dining table, ranging from business to life, from past anecdotes to the present. As night deepened outside the window, the lights along the lake lit up one by one, reflecting the candlelight inside, creating a warm and beautiful atmosphere.

The evening breeze blew in through the window, carrying the moisture of the lake and the fragrance of grass and trees, brushing against my cheeks, which was particularly pleasant.

The dinner was eaten slowly and deliberately, and it wasn't until late at night that everyone reluctantly dispersed.
