The Daughter of the Enchanted in the Modern Age

Chapter 87

He got into the car with Jun Shiling and drove through the tall buildings towards the outskirts of the city.

Even in the car, Jun Shiling did not neglect his work. Xia Wanyuan watched her flipping through the documents page by page and sighed in her heart.

"I think what you said last time was wrong," Xia Wanyuan suddenly said.

"Huh?" Taking his attention away from the document, Jun Shiling looked at Xia Wanyuan with confusion in his eyes.

"If you're not the head of the Jun family, the Jun family won't develop properly."

After hearing Xia Wanyuan's words, the corner of Jun Shiling's lips curved up.

"Do you praise me?"

"Isn't it clear?" Xia Wanyuan replied.

Jun Shiling's smile became clearer. "I'm so flattered to be praised by you. It'll be a long time before we reach it. Let me chat with you for a minute."

"certain. Do you do this every day when you're going to work? You don't stop reading the documents."

"It's okay. Sometimes ..." Jun Shiling patiently explained the company matter to Xia Wanyuan.

Xia Wanyuan liked to chat with Jun Shiling. He is an experienced and patient man. While chatting with him, he actually proved an ancient saying. "Listening to a man's words is better than studying for ten years."

Xia Wanyuan was very interested in the various institutions, cultures, and ideologies of modern society. Like a curious child, Jun Shiling patiently explained it to Xia Wanyuan one by one.

Time passed unnoticed.

"Young Master, Madam, we're here." The car stopped and the driver opened the door.

Jun Shiling got out of the car first, and the driver wisely left. Jun Shiling helped Xia Wanyuan out of the car.

"Are we at the top of the mountain?"

Xia Wanyuan was somewhat surprised. He did not expect that they would be on the mountain unknowingly.

"Mm, on the mountain it's a little cold. Don't catch a cold," Jun Shiling said as he attached his coat to Xia Wanyuan and carried her forward.

After walking for a while, a large number of brightly lit buildings appeared in front of him. On this mountain, it feels like a magical land.

"CEO Jun, the food is ready."

A uniformed servant was waiting respectfully at the door. In order to welcome Jun Shiling's arrival, the entire Dreams in the Clouds were cleared.

The treasurer led the way through the open door, which was filled with flowers. The pink rose formed a long corridor that was like a dream.

Xia Wanyuan had a calm personality, but she also liked beautiful things. After all, there is no woman who does not like to be beautiful.

There were no roses in the Xia Dynasty. This was the first time Xia Wanyuan had seen such a beautiful flower, and her eyes twinkled.

"Is this his name? It's so beautiful." Xia Wanyuan's eyes were filled with stars. Under the lighting in Dreams in the Clouds, it looked extremely dazzling.

"Roses. If you think it looks good, there may be more in the manor. "

"no need. I won't stay in the manor long. I just thought that this flower was beautiful. "

Hearing Xia Wanyuan's words, Jun Shiling's eyes darkened. Thinking of the divorce agreement he had signed back then, he sighed inwardly.

After passing through a long corridor, they finally arrived at a bright room at the end.

The servants respectfully led Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan in. The lights inside the house are softer than outside.

The room was filled with flowers, and candles were lit on the table in the middle of the room.

Jun Shiling took out a bench for Xia Wanyuan and sat opposite him.

"Let's celebrate. Congratulations on the support."

Jun Shiling raised his glass to Xia Wanyuan.

"Thank you for the encouragement of my future great boss?" Xia Wanyuan also raised her wine glass.

Jun Shiling laughed. Ya Zi is a subsidiary of Jun Corporation. Speaking of which, he could be considered as Xia Wanyuan's future boss.

After clinking the glass, Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan ate quietly.

In the hall, the additional servants had already retreated. In the center of the hall, Xia Wanyuan and Jun Shiling sat face to face, looking extremely peaceful and harmonious.

After eating, Xia Wanyuan put down her chopsticks.

"Let's go for a walk," Jun Shiling suggested.

The reason Dreams in the Clouds is called Dreams in the Clouds is because it is located above the clouds at the top of the mountain. In addition to the quality of the service, the most interesting thing is the night view here.

After following Jun Shiling for a bit, they passed through the forest and the entire capital appeared in front of them.

The summit of the Cloud Mountain was high, and Dreams in the Clouds was built on top of it. Standing at the top of the mountain, one could look down at the entire capital.

The light gathered into a sea of stars.

The weather was good that night. The clouds are thin, and the stars in the sky are bright.

At the end of his gaze, the sky was connected to the capital. One did not know whether the stars in the sky had fallen to the ground or whether the lights on the ground had risen to the sky.

"That's so beautiful. I didn't know there was such a place in town. Do you come here often?"

Xia Wanyuan sat on the observation chair beside her, and the stars in front of her fell into her eyes.

"It's my first time here."

The mountains were silent, except for the sound of a gentle breeze swiping the leaves.

Xia Wanyuan half leaned back on the chair while Jun Shiling stood behind her. Xia Wanyuan was looking at the scene in front of her while the people behind her were looking at her.

By the time they returned to the manor, it was already very late.

Since Xiao Bao was not around tonight, only Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan were left, which made the atmosphere a little awkward.

Seeing Xia Wanyuan's unnatural behavior, Jun Shiling took the initiative to mention it.

"okay."

In the courtyard of the house, Xiao Bao lay in the old man's arms, his handsome face wrinkled.

"What's up, my dear little girl? Aren't you okay now?" Seeing that Xiao Bao was displeased, the old man's heart clenched.

"I miss Mom and Dad." Thinking of Xia Wanyuan, Xiao Bao felt so guilty that his tears almost fell.

"Aiyo, my good grandchild, don't cry. I'll send you back in the morning, okay?"

"No, Dad said that my great-grandfather missed me. I want to spend more time with him." Although he missed Xia Wanyuan very much, Xiao Bao felt that his great-grandfather missed him as well.

"Good boy." Although his grandson was cold the entire time, this obedient great-grandson was truly obedient and wise.

"Did your mother sleep with you every night?"

"M." Xiao Bao nodded.

The old master's impression of Xia Wanyuan increased slightly. She remains a good mother. No wonder Xiao Bao was so sticky.

"Father too," added Xiao Bao.

"Md. Huh uh?!" The old master was surprised. "You mean your parents sleep with you every night?"

"Yes, great-grandfather." Xiao Bao's eyes widened. What's so weird about that? "Teacher says the whole family sleeps together."

"OK okay okay. That's late. Go to sleep, good boy."

Old Master was very happy. He knew Jun Shiling's character very well. Jun Shiling had always hated others close to him. If she did not want to, Xia Wanyuan would not even be able to enter the bedroom. How could he sleep in the same bed as Jun Shiling?

My cold grandson must have fallen in love with her.

***

The capital is located in the north. In the late spring, the weather always changes drastically.

Just a moment ago the sky was filled with stars, but now, a strong wind was blowing outside the window.

By the time Xia Wanyuan walked out of the bathroom, the wind outside hit the window.

Xia Wanyuan had a small habit. He was a little afraid of the dark, but that did not mean he could not sleep without the company of someone.

The main reason is that the world has never been at peace in the past. Her younger siblings were small, so Xia Wanyuan had to be vigilant at night. If there is movement, he should be vigilant.

Hair that has just been washed wet. Xia Wanyuan wiped it with a towel and blew the hair dryer for a while. Her hair was half dry. Just as he was about to change his hand, his vision suddenly darkened and his entire world fell into darkness.

A blackout? Xia Wanyuan was a bit confused. There's actually a power outage in the manor?

"Uncle Wang, due to the strong wind, the circuit in the main building was cut off. We've arranged for people to fix it. It'll be back to normal in three minutes."

The main building was where Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan lived. The electrical circuit was actually wrong in the main building, and the employees were filled with trepidation.

"In addition to electrical equipment, do other parts operate normally?" Unexpectedly, Uncle Wang did not blame them.

"Uncle Wang, the other parts of the building are operating normally, but the equipment in the main building cannot be recovered for now."

The electrical circuits in the manor have been designed by experts from all over. To ensure safety, there are many routes.

For example, security and electronics in buildings do not use the same circuitry. Therefore, what is damaged by the wind is just the electronic circuit. It did not have much impact on other parts of the building.

"Xiao Li, fix the circuit. Do not rush to send electricity. The Young Master and Madam were already sleeping at this time. No need to disturb them. Start tomorrow morning."

"okay." Uncle Wang was an old man in the manor. Although he did not understand why Uncle Wang did this, there was no harm in listening to Uncle Wang.

Therefore, the employee revised the cable and left. The entire main building is still dark.

Xia Wanyuan waited for a while, but there was still no call. He touched her hair. Fortunately, it was almost dry.

The strong wind outside the window slowly subsided, followed by heavy rain and lightning.

The deafening lightning seemed to split the world in two. The torrential rain continued to hit the window, making a sound as if it was going to pierce through the window in the next second.

No one knew where the wind was blowing, but he let out a sad whimper. In the darkness, those who heard it felt their hearts tremble.

Xia Wanyuan hesitated for three seconds before firmly picking up her phone.

The call was picked up almost instantly.

"Hello."

"Jun Shiling, I'm a little scared."

"Open the door."

Xia Wanyuan groped the door under the light of her phone. When he opened the door, Jun Shiling stood at the door.

"Uncle Wang called. He said that the power line for the main building had been cut off by the wind and would only recover tomorrow morning." Jun Shiling closed the door and followed Xia Wanyuan into the house.

"Alright, thank goodness I've bathed and dried my hair."

The electricity in the manor never stopped for more than three minutes, so no lighting device was prepared for candles or anything like that. Jun Shiling could only turn on his phone light.

"Go sleep. I'll go after you sleep." Jun Shiling sat by the bed. "You must be tired after the trip to the mountain today."

"Just sleep here then."
