Violet tilted her head.
She understood the meaning of the policy, but what policy needed to be determined?
"Violet, what do you want to do in the future?" Lu Ye asked.
Violet thought about it seriously for a moment, then shook her head.
Lu Ye put the pillow to her face and let out a long sigh.
That's true. After all, she's a girl who hasn't been exposed to the outside world. Although we've explained a lot of common sense to her, she still doesn't understand many things.
Violet yawned, seemingly wanting to sleep.
So she spat out the tasteless chewing gum, took a water bottle from the corner of the room, and obediently began to wash her face, rinse her mouth, and wash her feet.
Lu Ye felt somewhat gratified to see this.
It seems my teaching has been quite effective!
At least she knows she should clean her body now.
In this light, after some time, she may break free from her dependence on herself and grow into an independent and self-reliant woman of the new era.
No one can predict the future, but there is only one thing Lu Ye can guarantee.
Violet will never be trained to be a weapon.
As a way of repaying her for saving him several times, Lu Ye vowed to make her live a happy life.
This is both a promise and a determination.
As Lu Ye was marveling at this, he saw Violet drying her water-drenched face and feet with a blanket on another bed.
what happened?
Isn't it uncomfortable to sleep with a wet blanket?
Just as he was wondering, Violet leaped into Lu Ye's bed.
Chapter 47 Port Leiden
The next day at noon, the sun shone brightly.
The ship arrived at the port on schedule.
Leiden Port.
Located in Leidenshaft, the largest trading port, it sees very frequent ship traffic, with over a hundred cargo ships arriving every day.
The docks were bustling with people; merchants, patrolling soldiers, and various vendors and shops all gathered in the vicinity.
"It's so lively!"
Lu Ye limped onto the deck.
"Hey, what happened to your leg?" Hawkins asked with concern.
"It's nothing, just a cramp."
As Lu Ye said this, his resentful gaze drifted toward Violet.
A violet may fall asleep in an instant, but a trampled cow needs a long time to calm down.
Looking at the harbor, Lu Ye felt like a country bumpkin visiting a grand garden.
Although the modern civilization that Lu Ye lived in was far ahead of this era, its communication and transportation alone were enough to crush everything.
However, it must be mentioned that the architectural style and cultural landscape here are well worth seeing.
The eclectic mix of Romanesque and Baroque architecture is a sight to behold, with church bells ringing in the distance and people bustling about on the clean, wide streets.
Green vines cascaded down the white walls, and the women wore wide skirts of various styles and colors, their waists swaying gracefully. The men, on the other hand, wore elegant suits or work clothes and fishing attire, each living their lives at their own pace.
Although the war has had some impact, people's lives must go on.
"Damn it, I'm finally back!" Ye Zhou cheered.
“You really took good care of me during my time on the island,” Hawkins said. “If you’re not in a hurry to go back to the East, come see me when you have time. I’ll take you out to have some fun. I know the bars and dance halls around here very well.”
"I'll have to trouble you to pay the bill then," Lu Ye said with a serious expression.
"Yes, it's settled."
White steam billowed from the top of the ship, and the horn at the top emitted a long blast.
"Hey, time to line up. See you later."
"See you again someday."
The gangplank was slowly lowered, and the soldiers lined up on the deck before disembarking in an orderly fashion.
A man who looked like an officer came to greet the colonel and his entourage. They chatted warmly before getting on a motorcycle and driving away.
Lu Ye and Violet were among the last to disembark.
It feels so good to have my feet touching the ground again after so many days.
Lu Ye took deep breaths; the air was filled with the sweet scent of pineapples.
I really want one...
Just then, someone called out to Lu Ye.
Lu Ye turned around and saw a person dressed as a waiter.
"Excuse me, are you Mr. Lu?"
"Mm." Lu Ye nodded.
"Your room at our hotel is ready. Please follow me this way."
Lu Ye touched the purse on his body; it was given to him by a soldier before dawn.
Not only did they give me a sum of money, but they also prepared accommodation for me.
He thought to himself that the colonel was really thoughtful.
He followed the waiter through the bustling streets and finally arrived at a lavishly decorated hotel.
“Welcome to the Barrolick Hotel,” the waiter said. “From today onwards, you are a guest here.”
"Oh, that's really good."
"plz follow me."
Pushing open the glass door carved with the image of the Northern Yan, you can see the hotel's magnificent interior. The floor is paved with gleaming mosaic tiles, and the walls are decorated with carved gilded frames and landscape paintings. The ceiling of the lobby is like a cathedral, with a huge crystal chandelier hanging in the center.
Waitstaff carried trays through the crowd, serving wine and sliced cheese to guests who were resting.
Violet looked around curiously, her bright blue eyes sparkling.
This was Lu Ye's first time visiting such a stylish place, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
They followed the waiter up the spiral staircase and finally arrived at the sixth floor.
Next, we arrived at a room on the left side of the sixth-floor corridor, where the waiter stopped in front of the door.
"These are your guest rooms. You can decide the length of your stay." The waiter handed Lu Ye two keys. "From today onwards, you have the right to use this room for one year."
"Okay, I get it now."
Lu Ye examined the two keys. As expected of a high-end hotel, even the keys were so exquisitely crafted and beautiful.
"Then I'll go downstairs first. You can call me anytime if you need anything. There's a special bell in the room, and I'll be there whenever you call."
The waiter bowed in greeting and then left.
But Lu Ye didn't rush into the room.
"Violet, no one was following you when you came, right?"
“Following us?” Violet shook her head. “No one is secretly following us.”
"That's good." Lu Ye was slightly relieved.
He wasn't worried about the colonel, since the colonel had arranged the room.
He only cares about other people.
Because the colonel had previously said that he had already sent out information about Violet via telegram.
This means that military personnel could very well be staking out the location and making arrests...
Although it's unclear whether the colonel's statement is true, it's best to be cautious.
However, it seems we can rest assured for now.
Insert the key and open the door.
"Oh!" Lu Ye exclaimed.
Even Violet's eyes widened slightly.
The room was decorated in a very unique way.
A European-style chandelier hangs from the white ceiling, below which is a round velvet bed with sheer white curtains. Beside the bed is a bronze bathtub in the style of ancient Rome. The two are separated by a pine folding screen imported from the East, painted with cranes and white clouds, elegant and freehand... Eastern elements and Western decorations blend together perfectly, without feeling out of place at all.
If I had to nitpick, it would be that this room is so big, but there's only one bed.
Is this reasonable?
Violet silently approached the bedside, then suddenly collapsed face down.
With a muffled thud, her body sank into the soft bed.
"So soft..." she murmured.
Lu Ye also tried it out, and it was indeed soft, but his own waterbed should be even softer.
Sleeping on such a soft bed all the time is bad for your spine in the long run.
Lu Ye wandered around the room and suddenly found a note on the yew wood table.
It's obvious who left it without even thinking.
Open the note; it contained a message from the colonel.
