Chapter 2325 - 1932: Arrival at the Imperial City

Chapter 2325: Chapter 1932: Arrival at the Imperial City

The dryness and sunshine of Qin City are completely different from the dampness of Yun City.

After staying here for a while, Song Tan felt that all the moisture accumulated in her body was about to dry out. But ironically, Lun Chuan found the air too dry and was a bit uncomfortable.

He seemed to have trouble eating and sleeping here, even if he didn’t realize it himself, his nighttime breathing was noticeably heavier.

Thus, early one morning, Song Tan leaned on the bedside and gently stroked his eyelashes as he groggily woke up. She then smiled and said:

"Pack your bags, let’s go to the Imperial City!"

Lun Chuan, just waking up, listened to these words and was still a bit confused. He then instinctively reached for his phone:

"Oh, last night the housekeeping company said they had sorted out the things we sent over."

To earn this considerable service fee, the team had been packing from morning till night. It was too late in the evening for Lun Chuan to tell Song Tan.

Unexpectedly, she was so looking forward to it too!

He perked up and then sat up: "Okay, I’ll pack my luggage."

Actually, there wasn’t much to pack; they had just stuffed two old suitcases at Old Yang’s house and carried only a backpack with a couple of spare clothes—

The clothes they found were old, so they only needed to wear new attire, bring a phone, tablet, and set off.

When they arrived at the high-speed train station, Song Tan only then realized: "I seem to have never flown first class on a plane!"

Lun Chuan chuckled: "If we have plans to go abroad, I’ll arrange it."

Between cities in the country, unless you’re going to a remote place, high-speed trains and planes usually differ by only a couple of hours.

However, within those two hours, check-in time could make up the difference, not to mention that airports are often built in suburbs, and it might take a couple of hours just to get to the airport from the starting point.

Song Tan quickly shook her head: "I’m just saying, I don’t like flying."

The roar of the airplane engine wasn’t pleasant for Lun Chuan either.

Seeing her instinctively cover her ears for him, Lun Chuan was taken aback, then couldn’t help but feel a little happy: once they reached the Imperial City, life with just the two of them compared to before should be especially different.

...

Especially different means the entire space seemed unchanged, yet various details showed the traces of the female presence.

The gym and study were still there, but several flower racks were placed by the windows that were filled with sunlight.

The kitchen was piled with various products sent over, and the refrigerator and storage cabinets were packed full, rice flour was placed in small packages and stacked together in a corner.

As for Song Tan’s lifestyle needs...

Honestly, compared to Lun Chuan, her lifestyle was indeed a bit rough.

Daily at home, besides strolling around the mountains and fields, teasing cats and dogs, it was playing on her phone, gaming, watching TV.

And the phone was on silent.

She thoroughly embraced modern technology while detesting unfamiliar social interactions.

As for the terrace...

A huge pile of materials was sorted and stacked aside; upon entering the house now, Song Tan immediately went to check the terrace.

It was really bare!

So much so, with proper planning, it could hold many vegetable boxes!

By early September, the weather in the Imperial City was equally scorching, but autumn sowing could already begin.

Song Tan was full of energy with nowhere to exert it, seeing Lun Chuan head to the kitchen to prepare lunch, she immediately picked up the hoe and just as she was about to start, Lun Chuan spoke:

"Tantan, someone sent me a message, could you take a look?"

Song Tan went over to check, only to find the sender was [xx housekeeping manager].

The recent message was Lun Chuan’s acceptance message.

They asked:

[Hello, Mr. Lu. Yesterday, while cleaning your room, many colleagues said that the incense you requested to light in advance was very pleasant. We were wondering where you purchased it from? Could you recommend it?]

[When we helped sort and organize the kitchen ingredients, the dried fish in your home was also exceptionally fragrant—we ensure that recording occurs throughout work, the footage has been sent to your mailbox. Rest assured, there was absolutely no stealing or using, just curious about the purchasing channel for those dried fish, could you recommend it?]

[Additionally, one of the watermelons you sent got damaged, we cut it into pieces according to your request and stored it in preservation—but this watermelon also smells very fragrant, could you recommend where to get it?]

This is a housekeeping company that has gained a little fame online recently, primarily offering meticulous services.

From the current acceptance results, they were indeed worth praising for their work.

However, with meticulous services, the fees naturally aren’t low. When catering to high-end clients, details mustn’t be lacking.

Like yesterday, the two incenses were lit according to client requests.

Because the house is regularly cleaned by housekeeping, it wasn’t dirty, just had a bit of a stuffy smell due to being unoccupied.

Therefore, as things were being sorted, the incense found during unpacking was lit, intending to permeate the space.

These days, there are many clients with a bit of taste who request incense or scented candles at home.

The housekeeping company didn’t think much of it initially, but once lit, as the scent slowly spread, everyone came over to inhale deeply.

Strangely enough, though it was a simple tea scent, it seemed to have some citrus mixed in—yet it was so understated, it spread quietly but assertively.

Unknowingly, taking deeper breaths made them feel refreshed and comfortable, taking a deep breath and then exhaling seemed to release impurities from the mind and lungs!

This sensation was truly unique.

They had served many wealthy clients, but such a wonderful fragrance was one they hadn’t encountered before.

As for the dried fish, they swore they didn’t steal any.

But when the plastic bag was twisted and wrapped for the dried fish to be put into the storage box, they inevitably had to open the bag.

Once the bag was opened, the dry roasted aroma filled the air.

Despite its ordinary farmer’s methods, it made people immediately crave.

If it wasn’t for their professional ethics, they would have loved to sneak a couple of bites!

Now as they came to ask, it wasn’t about maintaining client relations anymore, it was purely hunger, wanting to eat!

About the watermelon, even though they didn’t know why it was sent over from miles away, the watermelon peel was very thin, one was intact and placed aside, and another was already cracked.

Cut watermelons don’t keep long. After sending a video over, Lun Chuan told them to enjoy it.

Nevertheless, the point was, everyone had professional ethics. No matter how much of a mess eating would make, it can’t be done.

The video couldn’t be edited, eating messily affects the image!

So they directly refused.

And fervently suggested cutting it into pieces and storing it in boxes for preservation, with the freezer’s capability now, it’d still taste good the next day.

Then...

Then they regretted it! Really regretted it, even while asking, they regretted it.

The watermelon’s aroma was unexpectedly bold. The few of them near the kitchen couldn’t resist looking towards it.

Once it’s cut into pieces stored properly, they were still reluctant.

After sleeping through the night, waking up in the morning, they were still craving.

Ultimately, they came to ask.

Song Tan burst out a "ha" laugh instantly, and mischievously opened the website link and sent it over—

By the way, during the rainy season, apart from a few sporadically listed small packages of tea and tremella that require quick purchases, there is hardly anything else available.

Also, Qiaoqiao’s live stream has temporarily stopped updating.

The live stream replay can be watched, but viewing will likely only increase cravings.
