Chapter 49：Good-hearted speculation

As soon as he heard this explanation, it was all 'conception' again. Li Weijie couldn't help but feel embarrassed by the girl's strong words. He coughed a few times and didn't know what to say.

Piaopiao blushed and gently scolded, "Silly girl, what did you say?"

Only then did Lai Yayan realize that this was not their usual banter as sisters. The person in front of them was a man they had just met, or more precisely, their enemy. She also blushed and didn't know what to do.

"Let's go outside?" Li Weijie, being a man, naturally had a thicker skin than them, and he didn't say those things. He quickly picked up two suitcases to alleviate the awkwardness.

"Okay." 

The two hesitated for a moment, then followed Li Weijie and walked towards the parking lot not far away. 

They seemed more familiar with this place and led Li Weijie directly to another bus waiting area instead of the taxi waiting area.

To their surprise, instead of heading to the taxi area, the two girls went to another bus waiting area. Li Weijie had agreed to go with them, so he followed them.

Soon, the two girls stopped in front of a luxurious coach. 

Surprisingly, it was a complimentary shuttle bus from a hotel called "Four Seas" that directly transported guests to their hotel. The hotel they booked should be this Four Seas Hotel.

The driver came down to greet them, exchanged a few words, and the two girls got on the bus, asking Li Weijie to stow the luggage.

The driver didn't need Li Weijie to do it himself. He immediately opened the storage compartment and helped put the suitcases inside. Although there were no other passengers, he still gave Li Weijie a numbered tag.

While the driver was organizing the luggage compartment, Li Weijie walked towards the door of the bus. 

At that moment, a foreigner came up to him and gestured while speaking in a foreign language. Then, he looked at Li Weijie expectantly.

Li Weijie didn't understand what he was saying; he could only confirm that it was a foreign language, but not English. He couldn't determine what it meant. 

However, seeing the foreigner's hopeful eyes, he guessed.

Seeing that he had just gotten off the plane, he was probably going to a hotel, right? 

So, his intention was probably to ask if this bus was going to the hotel? Li Weijie quickly "guessed" the foreigner's meaning and smilingly said, "Yes, yes! Please!" as if he could understand but not speak English.

He then smiled and invited the foreigner to get on the bus. The foreigner thanked him warmly but could only say simple "thank you" in English.

Seeing Li Weijie helping the foreigner, the driver hurriedly thanked him and invited him to get on the bus.

The bus was empty, with only a few people. The foreigner sat in the front, while Piaopiao and Lai Yayan sat in the middle-rear seats. 

Since Li Weijie came with them, he naturally sat with them. He nodded at the foreigner and sat down in the seat next to the two girls.

While Li Weijie was talking to the foreigner just now, Piaopiao and Lai Yayan watched the whole process through the window. 

At this moment, Piaopiao quietly called him, "Mr. Li..."

Li Weijie smiled, "You can call me by my first name, Piaopiao. It's a bit awkward for you to call me 'Mr. Li'."

"Being overly familiar, not well-intentioned!" Lai Yayan snorted and muttered defensively.

"Sure, call me A Jie. Is that better?" Li Weijie raised his eyebrows and said.

"Taking liberties with us, no good!" Lai Yayan lightly hummed and warned.

"Okay, A Jie, can you understand French?" Piaopiao leaned in and asked.

Li Weijie was taken aback. 

"French? Hehe... I don't understand."

"Huh? But..." Piaopiao exclaimed softly, "But didn't the French person in front of you just talk to you?"

"Oh? Is he French?" Li Weijie chuckled and joked, "Isn't it said that French people are the most passionate and romantic? Why didn't he come over and strike up a conversation with you? Huh? Maybe he's giving me face?"

"Get lost! I'm talking seriously!" Lai Yayan scoffed.

Li Weijie raised his eyebrows and spread his hands. 

"I don't know if he's French or not, and I don't know what he said."

"Huh? Then why did you let him on the bus?" 

Even though she was wearing sunglasses, Piaopiao's surprise could still be felt.

Could it be that I guessed wrong? 

Li Weijie scratched his head and grinned, "Well... I saw that he looked like he wanted to take these free buses, and since we don't have to pay, why not make it convenient for him?"

Piaopiao leaned back against the seat, astonished and at a loss for words.

Lai Yayan spoke for her, "Are you kidding me? Where would you find someone as absent-minded as you? What if he only asked for directions and you misunderstood? What have you gotten us into?"

Li Weijie felt a bit embarrassed and said reluctantly, "Just relax. Judging by his appearance, he probably wanted to go to the hotel. I'm just doing a good deed; everything will be fine."

"But what if you misunderstood, man?" Lai Yayan sneered.

Li Weijie shrugged his shoulders and said, "What if? It's simple. We can just go to his destination after dropping him off at the hotel. We're giving him a free ride to the city, saving him money and time. He should be grateful to me."

"Absurd! What kind of logic is this?" Even Lai Yayan couldn't help but find his words both laughable and annoying, while Piaopiao shook her head in disbelief.

By this time, the bus had already started moving. 

Li Weijie suddenly remembered Piaopiao's question earlier and asked, "Hey, Piaopiao, how did you know he spoke French? Do you speak French? Why don't you go communicate with him?"

Lai Yayan blurted out, "Do you want us to help you clean up... hmph, no way!" She stopped herself just before saying two vulgar words.

Piaopiao smiled bitterly, "Sorry, I don't speak French either. We just know this person and know he's French."

Li Weijie felt embarrassed, "Is he a celebrity? Doesn't seem like it. Why is he alone? Are French celebrities so shabby and stingy?" 

He usually wasn't interested in Hollywood movies, let alone French films, so he naturally didn't recognize French celebrities.

"No, he's the chief designer of the clothing brand Loki, um... we've read about him in fashion magazines. Both Yayan and I like this brand, so we can't be mistaken." Piaopiao explained. Girls have a higher level of interest in fashion-related things.

A fashion designer? 

Li Weijie furrowed his brows and tried to recall. It did belong to the realm of his profession, so he was familiar with the Loki brand, but he didn't pay much attention to the designers. Hence, he had no impression of the foreigner just now.
