Through the book: The villain’s son’s stand-in

2:42 pm, entrance to Ocean Manor.

Gu Pan stood under the signboard of Ocean Manor and looked back at the tree-lined scene all around.

Facing the probing gazes of the two young waiters in front of the door, Gu Pan blushed slightly and lowered his head to check the map.

"Did I go to the wrong place?" Gu Pan doubted himself.

Ocean Manor is a high-end entertainment venue in Haicheng, and internal news rarely flows into the Internet.

She only knew that Ocean Manor was built on an island, and it looked nothing like it.

She hurriedly contacted Lu Li.

"Grandma Lu, I have arrived at the entrance of Ocean Manor. Are you sure this is where it is?"

She turned on the holographic mode and turned around. At this time, Lu Li was doing her hair. She lowered her eyes and answered with a smile on her lips:

"That's right. Just go in and tell Qian Jiayuan's name."

After hanging up the call, Gu Pan went straight to the door.

When the waiter asked, according to what Lu Li said, he directly reported Qian Jiayuan.

There wasn't any show-off.

After hearing the name, the waiter stood up straight, his eyes filled with awe, and he respectfully invited her in.

The male waiter who leads her is wearing a suit and leather shoes, and his swallowtails that reach to his knees must be three-dimensional.

He raised a faint smile and led her through the wide arched door to a winding corridor with rockery and green water.

A number of red or white ornamental fish swam in the green water.

A gust of breeze blew, and the faint fragrance of green grass spread in the air.

At this moment, Gu Pan seemed to have returned to the familiar garden scenery.

After stepping through the vermilion threshold, a six-wheel sightseeing car with a wooden fence parked quietly at the entrance.

She sat in the second row with the waiter and listened to his explanation of the scenery along the way.

"This maple leaf garden was personally selected and cultivated by our boss. The planting arrangement follows the Feng Shui knowledge in the Book of Changes, and the wind and water flow smoothly to the God of Wealth."

God of Wealth, I haven’t seen this name for a long time.

As a non-believer, Gu Pan can be dismissive of other gods, but she will never be able to kneel in front of the God of Wealth.

The boss here seems to be a money-loving person like her.

Passing through the cloister, you come to a broad avenue. The flowers, plants and trees beside the road are all pruned into fixed shapes. At first glance, it is dizzying.

"Baihua Plaza was also designed by our boss. It is another major feature of our Ocean Manor. We will create different shapes according to seasons and special events to ensure that you will make new discoveries every time you come."

The sightseeing car rose and fell suddenly, and Gu Pan couldn't help but hold on to the railing.

After passing the bridge, the waiter's voice slowly appeared: "This bridge made of crystal jade restores the retro masonry structure, and the scattered textures look unique."

"There is also the long sword under the bridge. It is said that it killed a terrible beast called the Dragon King thousands of years ago. It has the meaning of suppressing evil and bringing good luck."

The waiter's mouth went dry as he spoke. After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he observed Gu Pan's reaction with his peripheral vision.

Gu Pan nodded as if he was not surprised by everything, then turned his head and looked elsewhere.

Just kidding, haven’t you visited many tourist attractions with your parents in those years?

These are just basic exercises.

But the waiter didn't think so. Seeing that Gu Pan was indifferent, he secretly sighed in his heart: He is indeed the person invited by the boss. Although he looks ordinary, he has seen the world.

*

The sightseeing bus drove for another ten minutes, and the greenery gradually faded, and a beach covered with fine sand came into view.

Gu Pan's eyes lit up and he heard the waiter say: "We have passed the garden scenic area and now it is the ocean scenic area. Your destination is also here."

Looking from a distance, an island appears vaguely outside the horizon.

But there are no boats nearby, and the sightseeing car doesn't look like it can cross the sea.

Before Gu Pan could say anything, he saw the sightseeing car driving into the junction of the beach and the inland sea.

Just when she thought she was about to drive into the sea, the sightseeing car suddenly sank, and the scene in front of her changed instantly.

Just like the visiting wall of an aquarium, there are schools of fish swimming on the arc-shaped roof, and all kinds of wonders in the sea are within easy reach.

The floor is also made of transparent material, which will cause water ripples and bubbles when walking through it.

If you were to walk on the ground, you might really feel like you were wandering in the sea.

"The Inland Sea Corridor is the proud work of our boss. It is made of fluorite, allowing you to clearly appreciate the scenery of the sea while walking."

When talking about materials, a series of fluorite materials came to Gu Pan's mind.

Fluorite is transparent, soft and easy to stretch. Because it is insulating, waterproof and high-temperature resistant, it is suitable as a mechanical shell and part of the inner core.

Because it will fuse quickly when it encounters silver, and its hardness after fusion reaches grade A, the two are often used together.

The origin is very abundant and often appears in ocean trenches thousands of meters away.

"Madam, do you have any questions?" The waiter asked carefully when he saw Gu Pan staring at the fluorite wall.

Gu Pan came back to his senses, and under the waiter's eager eyes, asked: "Is your boss also named Qian?"

Judging from the reaction to hearing the name Qian Jiayuan, it seems that the power represented by this name is not small.

The most likely possibility is that it is one of today's big bosses, or the property of a big boss's family.

But Gu Pan prefers the latter.

This manor is the property of a relative of the boss. The man likes design, so he is willing to do it himself.

Qian Jiayuan is like the uncle or younger uncle of the good-for-nothing male protagonist in many novels. He is ruthless and doesn't talk much, but he is a very promising character in the family.

Although the waiter found it strange, he still said patiently: "Yes, our boss is Mr. Qian Jiayuan."

Gu Pan was stunned for two seconds, then slowly lowered his head and hummed.

I guessed wrong.

Just after thinking about it, she understood the reason.

The boss has retired and certainly has plenty of time to waste.

After feeling embarrassed, Gu Pan became extremely interested in this big boss named Qian Jiayuan.

To be able to design such a beautiful garden and sea view corridor, he must be a man full of literary and artistic atmosphere.

With anticipation, they walked the entire distance and came to another arch.

The waiter got out of the car, and Gu Pan followed suit.

"Ma'am, for the next journey, we need to take a dune buggy to the island villa."

Gu Pan agreed and then looked around.

The beach stretches for several hundred meters. Looking into the distance, you can see a white castle with a spire standing high on the island.

The island is filled with water vapor, and the castle is also covered by clouds and mist, looming.

"So mysterious." Gu Pan murmured.

I changed rides again and sat on the thick leather cushions of the dune buggy.

The waiter kept talking all the way, constantly guiding Gu Pan to understand their boss's masterpieces.

The accumulation of many good reputations made Gu Pan even more looking forward to meeting this boss.

After driving on the dune buggy for twenty minutes, they finally arrived in front of the tall villa.

"We're here, please get out of the car." The waiter said.

She got off the car calmly and came to the retro iron door with hollow patterns.

Looking around, Gu Pan felt as if he was in front of an old European castle.

The legends of werewolves and vampires came to mind one by one, adding a touch of mystery to this white castle.

After the waiter communicated with the guard inside the door, the door slowly opened with a "click".
