It was almost seven o'clock when Elantra and Kailin came over, and Gu Muhan was afraid that he would waste time greeting Lan Wanyu and delay Lan Wanyu's dinner, so he asked them to wait in the bar first.

They cleaned up and went downstairs, and Lan Wanyu stared at the English words on the signboard for a moment, only to realize that his so-called bar was actually a restaurant.

"Why do you have such a strange store name, isn't it easy for people who don't know to make mistakes?" She thought it was an obvious bug, but no one among the tens of millions of tourists who came to the hotel to spend money asked this question?

The man next to her seemed to see Elantra, took her hand, and quickened his pace.

"The name of the bar was reserved only in honor of the famous French chef Ducasse. Do you think that people don't do a strategy when they travel here, ordinary people can read other people's reminders, rich people will have assistants to tell them, not to mention people from Western European countries, who are too familiar with this story, how can they be mistaken? ”

Lan Wanyu sighed helplessly, she sometimes didn't like Gu Muhan to explain to her, and she was always invisibly proving that she was stupid.

She turned her attention to the décor of the dining room, which, unsurprisingly, continued in the court-themed style of Louis XV. The designer's whimsy divides the restaurant into two, creating a more dreamy and romantic taste beyond the courtly style.

The place they are passing by now is the front area of the bar, which is mainly decorated with glass material, but if you are in the starry sky under the crystal chandelier of the restaurant, you will still have a sense of superiority in identity, in addition to these extravagant decoration styles in the restaurant, it is also matched with modern facilities, the bar counter with a unique design, looks like a neatly arranged ice cube, the light is dazzling everywhere, the bar counter full of personality is matched with the high-legged short-back bar chairs with fashion elements, which immediately enhances the fashion and avant-garde style of the bar. Illuminated by the blue background lighting, surrounded by blues music, and accompanied by century-old red wines, you will surely enjoy a delicious traditional French meal and taste a wonderful combination of classical and modern.

"Where are they?"

Lan Wanyu looked around, there were many dining guests here, gentlemen and celebrities, full of spring breeze, elegant manners, that kind of indisputable ease, as if time had stood still.

"Ahead!"

He continued to walk with her, and after turning a corner, the decoration style here was completely different.

Historic wood floors, luxurious leather armchairs, hand-tufted rugs and large-scale artwork elevate the definition of luxury to a whole new level, making it more tranquil and cosy than the more open environment of the front bar.

“hi，Gu！”

Someone stood up and greeted them, Lan Wanyu looked over, Elantra Te's handsome and evil Western face was very memorable.

She was inexplicably a little nervous, this friend of his, who had only seen her by name, was also the first friend she had seen him, and she was afraid that her image would make the other party feel dissatisfied and make Gu Muhan lose face.

Suddenly, a beautiful blonde woman appeared next to Elantra again, at first she thought it was Elantra T's lover, but when she noticed a trace of scoil in the other party's eyes, she realized that it was another rival in love!

She smiled and asked quietly in a voice that Gu Muhan could hear, "Does that woman also have a leg with you?" ”

Gu Muhan snorted coldly when he heard this, "You also look up to your husband too much!" ”

She pulled her lips, does it mean that if she doesn't admit it, it is not true? The woman's sixth sense is very spiritual, the woman is full of luxury, and she is so close to Elantra, it looks like a couple, but there is something important missing in their eyes when they look at each other, but she looks at Gu Muhan with a flow of affection that she doesn't like.

After looking at each other, they had already walked in front of Elantra, Kailin generously stretched out her hand, and Gu Muhan politely replied with a French greeting gift.

The corners of Lan Wanyu's mouth twitched, a little unpleasant.

Elantra didn't seem to want to suffer either, so he stretched out his hand and walked towards Lan Wanyu, but was stopped by Gu Muhan in time.

"She's not used to it!"

Lan Wanyu's face was embarrassed, and she politely stretched out her hand to meet Elantra's lost look, "Hello, it's nice to meet you!" ”

Elantra laughed, glanced at Gu Muhan with eyes that only a man could understand, and shook hands politely with Lan Wanyu, Lan Wanyu didn't need to look at it to know that Gu Muhan's eyes were like a sharp sword at the moment.

The four of them were seated, Gu Muhan's arm kept wrapping around Lan Wanyu, and his profound gaze did not leave her for a moment.

Elantra chuckled lightly on the other side, leaning back on the sofa with a wine glass, his eyes quietly changing between Gu Muhan and Lan Wanyu, and finally knocked on the door.

"You Chinese have a saying about it, huh...... Husband and wife, yes, husband and wife, some of the expressions between your eyebrows are quite similar. ”

Gu Muhan frowned when he heard this, "If you don't know how to speak, don't speak!" ”

Husband and wife talk about similar appearances, what is called a very similar look, it is more uncomfortable to say it than not to say it, this two hundred and five!

Elantra scratched her head, "Isn't that what you say?" ”

Kai Lin on the side was not obviously not as happy as before, but she still asked Gu Muhan politely and softly, "She doesn't understand French?" ”

Gu Muhan bowed.

"Then you won't translate with her?" Kailin asked again.

Gu Muhan hooked his lips and didn't answer, just reached out and clasped her embarrassed little hand together, and when he saw her smile, he translated Kai Lin's question just now.

Lan Wanyu was shocked, looked at the man and woman sitting opposite, and shook her head, "Forget it, I'm not suitable to attend a party like yours, and the translation will only make me tired of coping." ”

It's not that she doesn't want to be a virtuous wife, it's just that she is already embarrassed to sit here while pregnant, first, she can't drink, and second, because of the tedious details and time-consuming of French dinners, she can't stand it, if Gu Muhan translates for her, she has to be patient here to accompany them until the end of the meal, it is a kind of torment!

I don't know if Gu Muhan understood what she meant, but the waiter brought the first plate of dishes, and he picked up the wine glass and touched them separately.

Kailin gestured to Lan Wanyu with her wine glass, she smiled and shook her head, and declined in simple English.

"Why don't you drink it, of course you have to taste the most authentic red wine when you come to France, don't worry, this red wine is not intoxicating." Kai Lin just thought that Lan Wanyu was simply polite.

Elantra also began to say that Gu Muhan didn't come, half because of the friendship of the landlord, and half because he felt that Gu Muhan was the culprit who caused his wife not to drink.

The two discussed fiercely at the table for a while, and Gu Muhan saw that there was no way to hide it, so he said, "She's pregnant." ”

Elantra squirted out a sip of wine, the rare gaffe was that the news was too shocking, and the wine glass in Kailin's hand also fell to the ground at that moment, and the crisp sound immediately attracted the attention of many nearby diners.

The waiter quickly walked up with cleaning tools and cleaned while making amends.

Kai Lin got up and stood beside Gu Muhan, looking at Lan Wanyu with a blank and innocent face in her heart.

If you want to say that she is closer to the water than this Miss Lan, doesn't she have a better chance? Gu Muhan has been in France for ten years, she has known him for eight years, he knows that she is interested in him, although he is usually called a friend, but because of the friendship with her brother, he is also considerate of her care, every time she invites him, he has never refused, she asked him why he can't accept her, and the answer he gave her is that he loves Jiang Yuqian and has always loved her!

Well, since that's the case, she can wait, but why did he get married a year after returning to China, and why wasn't the object of marriage Jiang Yuqian?

It's Jiang Yuqian who is okay, they are in love, and she blesses them when they eventually become dependents, but now, sitting next to him is an ordinary woman who is not worthy of him in any way, and the two of them actually gave birth to the next generation?!!

Elantra came back to her senses, saw Kailin's disappointed face, and hurriedly raised her voice, "You are too uninteresting, even if you don't tell me when you get married, now that the children are about to be born, you don't give me a good news, no, you have to be punished!" ”

His voice pulled Kai Lin back from her past memories, she glanced at Gu Muhan, saw that he didn't look at herself a few more times, and sat back in a low mood.

Elantra looked at her and asked her opinion, "How do you say it's fine?" ”

The meaning of those words: I can only help you vent your anger like this, after all, they are already a couple, is it possible to still want to break them up?

Kailin smiled bitterly, she was not in the mood to fight now, even if her brother helped her out of anger, she would never be happy if she didn't solve the problem fundamentally.

The atmosphere is very awkward, Lan Wanyu is like a piece of wood if she doesn't participate in their topic, Kailin's low mood also affects everyone's appetite, how can there be two men left?

Lan Wanyu was eating dinner by herself, when she suddenly noticed a very unfriendly gaze staring at her, she looked up, just in time to meet Kailin's hostile eyes, and she also felt a little disgusted.

She knew that Gu Muhan had a woman's fate, but why was she used as a target by her rival or imaginary enemy to vent her anger every time something went to the end, how innocent she was!

She pulled Gu Muhan's sleeve a little angrily.

He put down his glass and looked at her with a hint of affection between his eyebrows, "Full?" ”

She nodded, she was full of this atmosphere!

"Do you want to go back or hang out?" He suddenly asked, which made Lan Wanyu's face raise a trace of joy, it turned out that he knew what she was thinking in her heart!

"Get out!"

He shook his head reluctantly, she thought he didn't want to be separated from his friends so soon, and immediately said, "Just go around outside, don't go far." ”

"It's too cold outside, it's estimated that it's going to be snowing, just go out, there's a good place in the hotel, let the waiter take you there!"

What can I do in a hotel?

Lan Wanyu sneered in her heart, but in order to leave as soon as possible, it didn't hurt to agree first.

She smiled and said lightly, "Okay then! ”

Gu Muhan didn't see any clues from her face, put the napkin that had wiped the corners of her mouth on the table, snapped her fingers and called the waiter.

The waiter readily agreed to show Lan Wanyu the way and go to the good place in the hotel that Gu Muhan said.

After Lan Wanyu politely said goodbye to the Elantra brothers and sisters, she left in style, but she didn't know that her departure was the one who saved the atmosphere of the whole dinner.

The waitress led her out of the bar, through the ornate lobby, the atmospheric open-air café, where she saw the snowflakes falling quietly.

Walking down a flight of stairs, the waitress told her that by crossing this staircase, she was transitioning from the high-pressure atmosphere of the Plaza Athenaeum Hotel to another boutique space that Dior had carefully created for its guests.

Lan Wanyu caught the word Dior from his not fluent English, and he was immediately excited and full of anticipation.

I didn't expect the hotel to be so close to Dior, the classic white arched corridor can already see the minimalist style that Dior products have been admired in the coming years, and the photos hanging on the walls on both sides tell the legendary story of Dior becoming the world's top brand, and this legend is as long as the corridor that stretches here.

The waiter led her to a glass door, handed her to the center staff and left.

Upon learning of her situation, the staff immediately called a clerk who understood Chinese to serve her.

The two of them had no language barriers, and they communicated very smoothly, and Lan Wanyu also knew that Xiao Xuan was not small.

She is the pearl of a rich man in Zhejiang, but she is not like other rich second generations who have nothing to do all day long to eat, drink and have fun, and began to work when her family sent her family to France to study, and almost mastered first-hand skills in two years, from learning to make red wine, making desserts, etc., and now studying at the Dior Beauty Academy, by the way, I will receive compatriots like Lan Wanyu who come to France to travel.

"This is the 'Dior' unique beauty academy, the pool you see now, the center is made of blown glass Dior logo, which has drops of liquid hanging in the air, which is also the finishing touch of our Dior, through this exquisite droplet, it is not difficult for us to see that every detail of the center contains incomparable luxury and perfection."

Lan Wanyu nodded approvingly, since she entered Athena, she has seen many luxurious and beautiful things, but that kind of luxury has to please many people's aesthetics after all, the difference between Eastern and Western vision, the difference between men and women, unlike here, it is very intuitive to raise the status of women to the highest position and provide the best service for every Princess Dior.

Xiao Xuan took her and continued to walk inside, the center of the functional area on the left side of the corridor.

"What you see now is the spa in our center, where the top level of indulgence is by no means comparable to that of ordinary spas, in addition to all the beauty products of Dior for your wellness, all the treatment rooms are decorated with Dior's specially customized white chairs in bright colors and mirrors with bright lines, which are both simple and elegant and highlight the fashion boutique atmosphere. Come and see our physiotherapy room, each room is equipped with high-end terminal computers, high-end equipment and facilities, plus high-quality SPA treatment, which can make your body experience in-depth care, and let the body and mind be released freely! ”

With a strong visual impact and Xiao Xuan's perfect speech, Lan Wanyu was already excited in her heart.

She hesitated for a moment, and smiled a little embarrassedly, "I'm a pregnant woman, can I have physiotherapy?" ”

"Pregnant women! That's okay, we have a spa room for pregnant women! Xiao Xuan smiled happily, "I have been doing it here for more than a month, and I receive several pregnant women for spa treatment every day, and the effect is very good." ”

"But I've read online information that pregnant women are not suitable for spa treatment, because different temperatures and different water pressures can irritate the human body."

Xiao Xuan was afraid that she would question her profession, took her hand, looked at her with great sincerity and said, "The water temperature of the special spa room will not make pregnant women feel uncomfortable, but the time is slightly shorter than the general spa, we Chinese have an old saying: the world is as soft as water, water is a very gentle thing, as long as you follow the guidance of our physiotherapists to do health care, there is no need to worry about any accidents!" ”

Lan Wanyu's inner defense line is relaxing little by little, Dior's name is well-known, and she really doesn't want to miss a personal experience.

Xiao Xuan saw that she couldn't make up her mind, so she called a physical therapist and asked her to play a video of a pregnant woman who recently came to the center for health care, and Lan Wanyu's heart was extremely shocked.

This may be the difference between Chinese and Western races, in China, after giving birth, you have to have confinement, and if you don't maintain your body well, you will suffer from confinement disease, but Westerners don't have confinement at all, and they drink ice water directly after giving birth to quench their thirst. Nowadays, in terms of medical care and other aspects, the technology of the West is much higher than that of the Eastern countries, and perhaps after many years, the Oriental people can also accept the Western concept of how to live after having children, and she does not have to take the comments on the Internet as a golden rule to follow!

At this time, Xiao Xuan pointed to the thing in the hand of the physiotherapist in the video and said, "Mrs. Gu, this is the latest amino acid protein developed by our beauty center, you also know that pregnant women will have yellow hair loss and dull hair during pregnancy due to hormonal reasons, this thing can enhance the fiber quality in the hair!" ”

"Pregnant women during pregnancy body changes are particularly big, in addition to hair problems, organs, organs are compressed, fat, muscle laxity, lack of exercise, insomnia, etc. will cause women to feel unwell during pregnancy, some even in the later stage of serious edema, even walking is difficult, we do a proper physiotherapy, so that the meridians of the whole body get a good maintenance, so that your physical skills are in a normal state environment, you will be much easier. We at Dior not only care about women, but also care about those great mothers who are about to become mothers, all the physiotherapy products for pregnant women are made of green and organic ingredients, and will never contain a little harmful ingredients, you can rest assured. ”

It seemed that it had been a long time before Lan Wanyu said in a low voice, "Okay then, try it!" ”

Gu Muhan was able to let her come here, naturally she also felt that she could do some maintenance as a pregnant woman, maybe after this experience, she would feel that she would not hide her flaws!

Xiao Xuan went through the formalities for her and handed it over to the physical therapist, knowing that she couldn't understand the language, she specially stayed for her and translated for her.

She walked to the edge of the pool in a wide white bathrobe, where melodic songs were already playing, and she did some warm-up aerobic exercises under the guidance of her physiotherapist before slowly sinking into the warm water.

The pool is not large, not as atmospheric as the previous pools that can still be swimmed, but it is also to reduce the water pressure and reduce the risk of rapid blood flow.

She leaned against the edge of the pool, and the therapist quietly and skillfully washed her hair, massaged, and bathed......

Maybe it was too comfortable, or maybe it was because she was tired when she went out to play today, and under the pressure of this kind of gravity, she slowly fell asleep......

She was finally woken up by Xiao Xuan, and the SPA service was over.

Lan Wanyu sat up and said with a smile, "It's really comfortable, I fell asleep before I knew it!" ”

Xiao Xuan showed a sweet smile, "Mrs. Gu, you are very beautiful and have a good figure, more bubble SPA helps with beauty, presumably your husband will love you even more!" ”

Lan Wanyu couldn't help but wonder, "This is the most beautiful sentence you said!" ”

"I'm not complimenting...... Xiao Xuan helped her out of the pool, put on a bathrobe for her, and leaned close to her ear in a deified manner, and whispered, "Don't look at this foreigner's blonde hair, deep facial features, and good figure, but that skin is really incomparable to us Orientals, very rough, and there are many, many freckles!" ”

After hearing this, the two looked at each other and laughed tacitly.
