The secretary had good tastes at picking out clothing. Su Jianan did not know if the secretary had gone out of the way to understand her tastes or had just guessed correctly. The clothes that she picked out were just like Su Jianan's usual leisurely and simple style. Even the colors that she picked out were what Su Jianan liked.
She put on a thin spring jacket and put the rest of the clothes in the car. The driver asked, "Mrs. Lu, where do you wish to go?"
She smiled lightly and said, "I'm not going anywhere too far from here. I'll just walk around nearby."
It was getting late and there was no time to go anywhere far. However, it was too much of a waste of time to stay in the hotel room. She might as well walk on the unfamiliar streets and while trying to occupy her time, she might find see something unexpected.
The driver nodded and drove the car following behind Su Jianan. He did not allow her to leave his sight but also did not disturb her.
Su Jianan guessed that these were Lu Boyan's orders and did not say anything else. She bought a cup of vanilla milk tea at a cafe at the corner of the street and walked on the streets slowly. She made a turn and shopping street littered with tall buildings suddenly appeared before her.
The time was just right for the city people to relax. They walked around in groups, holding hands and visiting each shop. They would walk out with bags containing their spoils, the smiles of their faces lively.
The pace of the city seemed to slow down because of them. Su Jianan started to relax unconsciously.
After marrying Lu Boyan, her days had either been scary or so busy, she wished there were 48 hours in a day. She had never been so relaxed.
It seemed that she had to thank Lu Boyan for carrying her to this foreign city.
She arrived at the financial center after crossing through the shopping street. A river that nourished the city people crossed through the financial center. There were many tall buildings and landmark architecture on this side of the river. On the other side was the wealthy area of the city. The houses were all well-lit and from afar, the light looked like hanging stars fallen from the sky and was very stunning.
Su Jianan followed the light and entered the Asian Games Park. She found a bench and sat down. The cold breeze blew at her as she listened to the river lapping on the shore. Even her breathing relaxed.
Compared to her, Lu Boyan was so busy he seemed to be a person in a different world.
He had been in a rush to come to G City today. He thought that Su Jianan would definitely visit Jiang Shaokai at the hospital more often if he were not at home, and he had the sudden idea to bring her here. That had wasted a lot of time. Then, he had returned to eat lunch with her and that had taken up some time. When he reached the branch office, he did not even have time to breathe before he started to handle the matters and rushed for a meeting.
It was already past ten by the time the meeting ended. The secretary gave him a cup of coffee and said, "Boss Lu, I already sent the clothes to Mrs. Lu as ordered. She quite likes them. She also asked when you will return."
Lu Boyan's hurried steps seemed to pause. "How did she ask it?"
"She asked what time we will be busy till. I said that you might only be able to return at 12. She looked quite disappointed." The secretary hesitated and said, "Boss Lu, let me be nosy and ask, is it Mrs. Lu's first time at G City?"
"Yes."
Su Jianan had been very quiet before she graduated from university. She only started running wild in the name of traveling when she studied for her Masters in the United States. However, she visited Europe and South East Asia more often. It was indeed her first time visiting G City.
