Lu Zhaoyang saw his look of concern over her and could only managed a thin smile to him . "I'm just not used to the new environment . "
"Should we change to another place, then?"
"No need . Let's go to Provence and try some red wine . I'm sure it will help with my sleep!"
She replied calmly and went downstairs .
Huo Chen followed behind . He saw through her front and imagined that she must still be in the process of accepting her newfound freedom .
It did not matter to him . Time was the best medicine . She would slowly forget about her unhappy past and become the lively and sanguine Lu Zhaoyang .
The train journey to Provence took three hours .
Lu Zhaoyang rested her chin on her hand and studied the receding scenery outside . For a moment, she forgot that she had left the city .
Huo Chen had prepared everything . Through his request, a friend of his had purchased a white double-storey cottage with a view of a wide lavender field from the courtyard .
There were no other houses within fifty meters of the cottage . It was a beautiful and quiet home that Lu Zhaoyang would be sure to love .
A light breeze swept across the cottage . Lu Zhaoyang stood in the courtyard, admiring the swaying lavender flowers in the distance .
Suddenly, a blanket was wrapped around her thin figure .
"It's windy outside, and there are no buildings around us . It's much colder than the city at night . "

"We should go inside then, the scenery won't be going anywhere . " Lu Zhaoyang smiled and turned around . "By the way, why is the second floor not renovated?"
"I kept it just for you, so that you can renovate it however you want . "
Huo Chen held her hand by the wrist as they walked inside the cottage together .
He had kept all these details in mind . Being new to another country, it would help to keep her distracted by something as she got used to her new way of life .
The second floor was kept empty so that she could design it according to her taste .
"That's fine, I'd like to be occupied, but first, I want to rest for the day . I'll see what I can do tomorrow!"

He knew exactly what her taste was like . She never changed after all this time .
The person she liked had never changed too, but being with him was no longer possible .
Once they stepped inside, Huo Chen guided Lu Zhaoyang to the sofa and said, "Rest . I'll make dinner . "
"You?" She was surprised .
To think that a captain knew how to cook!
"What, you don't trust my skills? Don't worry, I should be alright . " Huo Chen made an okay gesture to assure her . "My dear beautiful lady, what would you like to have for dinner?"

"Chen, are you sure we have the ingredients here?"
Lu Zhaoyang scratched her head in confusion . Surely they had just arrived here?
"I don't think so . " Huo Chen replied with an awkward smile . Lu Zhaoyang rolled her eyes at him and as he said, "I'll go shopping . You should take a nap . "
Lu Zhaoyang took off the blanket on her and said with excitement, "Are you going out? I want to tag along to, is it far?"
Huo Chen was happy to see her enthusiasm . He nodded as he went to take her jacket . "We have a car . It should be a short trip . "
Lu Zhaoyang put on the jacket and eagerly went for the door . "Then let's go!"
If she was to live here, she would have to get to know the local culture sooner or later . Besides, she needed to take a walk outside to calm her mind .
The closest shopping mall was only fifteen minutes away by car .Please download our sponsor's game to support us!
