Chapter 443: A Night Visit to the Young Interpreter and Bodyguard at Aman Kyoto

"Did I?"

Shen Yuan refused to admit it.

"Of course, you would like to stick your eyes on people's legs." Fang Minhui put her hands on her hips and puffed up her cheeks cutely.

"You're talking nonsense. I don't even know your legs."

"Hey, hey, hey, stop it. There are so many people here."

Fang Minhui quickly covered his mouth.

All the crew members of the G22345ER business jet numbered 550 also got off the plane at this time, stood beside the escalator, and said goodbye to Shen Yuan with a smile.

Olivia even shook hands with Shen Yuan: "Mr. Shen, see you next time if we are lucky."

"See you later." Shen Yuan said with a smile.

Olivia didn't understand. Even if Shen Yuan chartered a plane for his return trip, it might not be this business jet. Even if he chartered this plane, it didn't necessarily mean that she would provide in-flight service for Shen Yuan.

So the chance of meeting again is slim.

Shen Yuan simply thought that this stewardess had a good sense of service and image, and that when he bought a private jet, he could recruit her to serve him.

Before Olivia could figure it out, Ji Ya came over with a smile, "Hello, can you leave me your contact information or WeChat?"

As a personal assistant, Ji Ya is well aware of her duties and is always aware of her boss's words and subtext.

The business jet stops at Hanjo International Airport, and after landing it has to go through several procedures including immigration inspection, biometric collection, customs declaration, etc.

It is much better to have an interpreter present for such matters, as Lu Xinyue was the one who basically did the negotiations.

When we walked out of the VIP channel, two black Alphas were already waiting, with the words "Aman Kyoto" engraved on them.

In ancient times, ordinary people did not have Chinese characters. It was not until the Sui and Tang dynasties of China that envoys were sent to the Tang Dynasty and Monk Jianzhen made six voyages to the East that Chinese characters and culture became popular. Therefore, many of the words used by ordinary people are similar to Chinese characters.

"Hello, little one. Your ancestors are here."

Under Ji Ya's guidance, Shen Yuan got on the second Alpha.

In addition, Fang Minhui also got in, while Ji Ya was ready to sit in the co-pilot seat, leaving Lu Xinyue and Tan Xin and Tan Han to sit in the first Alpha.

However, Tan Xin had no intention of moving. He just looked at Ji Ya who was about to get in the car and said, "I need to sit in the passenger seat of this car."

"Ok?"

This time it was Ji Ya's turn to be confused.

After a while, she suddenly realized that Tan Xin's main responsibility was to ensure the boss's safety, so it seemed reasonable for her to ride in the same car with the boss.

But Tan Xin was a little nervous. The security in Japan should be quite good, and the boss was not a national leader.

"Boss, then should I sit in the front table?" Ji Ya still asked Shen Yuan for his opinion.

Shen Yuan waved his hand: "Well, if Tan Xin wants to ride in the same car with me, let her sit."

Ji Ya's mouth twitched but she didn't say anything, and Tan Xin pretended not to hear and sat down with an expressionless face.

Only Fang Minhui reacted a little too much, with her snow-white chin raised: "That's too much, Yuanbao."

Shen Yuan is like this in front of me, what if I am not around... Tsk, I dare not think about it, I really dare not think about it.

The driver was a middle-aged man wearing white gloves, with his hair neatly combed, a black suit and a bow tie, and a friendly smile on his face.

When the car door closed, he turned around and said to Shen Yuan: "お客様, お出たせいた."

Shen Yuan frowned: "What nonsense is he speaking? There is no one on this bus who can speak Japanese."

Tan Xin said: "He greeted you and introduced himself as Yudai Watanabe, the driver of Aman Kyoto."

Shen Yuan raised his eyebrows: "Do you speak Japanese?"

Tan Xin said: "I know a little bit, but I'm not proficient in it, so I didn't write it on my resume."

"Oh."

The car on the Japanese side is right-hand drive, and Shen Yuan felt a little uncomfortable seeing the driver sitting on the right side, so he looked out the window.

The roadsides are lined with cherry blossoms and maple trees, which looks quite unique. From time to time, you can see signs of "Izakaya" and "7-11".

They are mostly low-rise buildings that retain traditional wooden structures and courtyards.

Fang Minhui's eyes flickered and she frequently took out her cell phone to take pictures.

There is a sense of novelty, but Shen Yuan feels that the roads for everyday people are too narrow. Except for the two-way four-lane road leading out of the airport, most of the roads are two-lane, and there is no physical obstruction in the middle of the road.

"Tan Xin, do you know Kyoto and the hotel we are going to?" Shen Yuan asked.

The class beauty is definitely not something you can count on, as she is immersed in the world outside the window, and she definitely hasn’t done any homework.

"Yeah, I think I understand."

Tan Xin said calmly, "Kyoto has been the political and cultural center of Japan for quite a long time. It is dominated by the service industry and cultural industry and is an important tourist city in Japan. Compared with the high-rise buildings in the East, there are more ancient buildings here."

"In addition, the Aman Kyoto where we are staying is Japan's top hidden resort hotel, covering an area of ​​32 hectares, hidden in the lush forest, with a high degree of privacy. It was designed by the late master architect Kerry Hill, and combines traditional Japanese "wabi-sabi aesthetics" with modern minimalism."

"Why do you know all this? Have you been to Japan?" Shen Yuan was a little curious.

"I haven't been here. I need it for work."

Tan Xin was very frugal with words, and Shen Yuan was too lazy to chat with her anymore. He flirted with Fang Minhui and looked at the exotic street scene outside the window. The two Alphas soon arrived at the hotel.

Aman Kyoto is the third Aman in Japan. The building is mainly black in color, and at first glance it blends in with the forest.

The housekeeper in kimono came up early, folded her hands in front of her abdomen, and bowed 30 degrees in greeting.

I heard that the service staff in Japan are particular about the angle of their bowing, and they bow gently at 15 degrees when they say hello, pass by colleagues, or pour tea for guests.

The 30-degree bow is used in the workplace to greet clients, seniors, and superiors, or when receiving visiting guests to express a high level of respect.

As for the 45-degree salute, it is used to express deep gratitude or apology, such as when seeing off an important customer or apologizing for a customer's complaint.

It seems that there is a reason why their service industry is developing so well.

Ji Ya and Lu Xinyue were in charge of the check-in. It was the red leaf season and also the peak tourist season, so Ji Ya had booked two single-family villas and one guest room early on.

The names are nice, one is called Yingfeng Pavilion and the other is called Jiufeng Pavilion, each equivalent to RMB 7 per night.

Among them, Washimine Pavilion has the best view, with an area of ​​241 square meters, overlooking the entire garden and Mount Hiei in the distance.

The house only had two bedrooms. Shen Yuan thought about it and then made arrangements happily: "I, Minhui, and Xinyue will live in Jiufeng Pavilion, Jiya and Tanxin will live in Yingfeng Pavilion, and Tanhan will live in the guest room."

Although Tan Han stayed in a guest room, it cost 2 yuan a night, and 60 square meters is not small.

Ji Ya thought this was a good arrangement. She didn't have to live in the same villa with her boss, and it also saved Fang Minhui from getting jealous.

It’s not worth it for a woman to offend her boss.

He just glanced at the petite and cute Lu Xinyue and felt inexplicably worried.

But be careful, Xinyue, a wolf might sneak into your room at night.

Lu Xinyue didn't know what it meant yet. She just looked around the hotel and felt that 8 per night was too luxurious.

Only Tan Xin was a little hesitant. Shen Yuan looked at her and said, "Why, you want to sleep in the same room with me? Why don't you switch with Lu Xinyue?"

"No need."

Tan Xin's hesitation disappeared immediately.

From the lobby to the room, you need to walk through a long quaint path. The bluestone slabs bear the traces of time, while the falling red leaves ripple with colorful beauty.

Very beautiful, Shen Yuan sighed in his heart.

Along the way, the butler introduced the hotel's background and design concept, as well as dining options, recommended hotel activities and surrounding areas to Shen Yuan and the others.

Lu Xinyue translated each word one by one, but no one was in the mood to listen. Their eyes were on the green plants and falling red leaves on both sides.

Similar to the Aman Yangyun in Shanghai, this one in Kyoto is also close to nature, but this one emphasizes "hidden aesthetics", which makes it feel like a traditional Japanese inn and also like arriving in an urban paradise.

Tan Han was the first to fall behind because his guest room arrived first, followed by Ji Ya and Tan Xin's Yingfeng Pavilion, and finally Jiufeng Pavilion.

The courtyard-style detached house does not look like a hotel but a B&B.

The room is dominated by log color and has a warm layout. It does not look luxurious but rather down-to-earth.

The living room, dining room and bedroom all have floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors, through which you can directly see the forest view outside. When you wake up in the morning, you can simply open the glass door to feel the forest and nature.

Fang Minhui and Lu Xinyue's eyes sparkled, and they couldn't hide their excitement despite the long journey, especially since there was a private hot spring pool surrounded by stones in the courtyard.

"You can take a hot spring bath~"

Fang Minhui had never tried any private hot springs outside except the one in Shen Yuan's Qingzhu Lake Villa, especially this one, which was bigger and more original.

"Well, this hot spring is big enough for me, the class beauty, Ji Ya, Xiao Xinyue, oh, and that cold female bodyguard. That big guy Tan Han shouldn't join in the fun, just soak in the bathtub in the guest room."

Shen Yuan was thinking this in his heart, and was already looking forward to seeing Lu Xinyue and Tan Xin wearing their swimsuits.

They had dinner on the business jet. The food provided was definitely better than that on the commercial aircraft, but for a gourmet like Shen Yuan, it was just so-so, so Shen Yuan asked Ji Ya to prepare a midnight snack.

Aman Kyoto has three restaurants, including an all-day restaurant called "The Living Pavilion" that serves international cuisine with local flavors, as well as traditional Japanese breakfast.

A kaiseki restaurant called "Takaan" uses fresh seasonal ingredients such as matsutake mushrooms and Kobe beef, and reservations are required.

There is also a dining pavilion that serves Western cuisine.

There weren't many choices for midnight snacks, as only The Living Pavilion provided them at this time, so Shen Yuan asked the two of them to go wash up first. They estimated that the food would be delivered after they finished washing.

Both suites in Jiufeng Pavilion have independent bathrooms. Shen Yuan stretched himself, glanced at the class beauty who had already taken a shower, and then walked towards Lu Xinyue's suite.

Lu Xinyue had just packed her luggage and was about to go to the bathroom with some clothes in her hand when she didn't expect Shen Yuan to suddenly walk in.

She quickly hid the pink clothes in her hand behind her back.

"Boss, what, what happened?"

Lu Xinyue's heart beat faster and she felt inexplicably nervous. We were a single man and a single woman, and it wasn't appropriate for the boss to come to my room.

"It's okay, I just came to see you."

Shen Yuan took two steps closer and looked at Xiao Xinyue, who was about 160cm tall. "How is it? Are you getting used to it?"

"I've adapted to it." Lu Xinyue's eyes darted around nervously.

"Are you missing anything?"

“There is no shortage.”

"That's good. Oh, by the way, did you bring your swimsuit?" Shen Yuan glanced at the bulge on her chest.

Tsk, it seems quite big, but I don’t know how it compares to the class beauty.

"Take it, take it."

I knew that I would have to take a hot spring bath when I came to Japan, so I brought a swimsuit, but I didn't expect the boss to ask me so directly.

"Is it the right size?"

Shen Yuan inexplicably felt like a bad uncle who wanted to kidnap a little girl, and seemed a little perverted.

"Ah? It fits, it fits."

"That's good. Feel free to contact me if you need anything."

Shen Yuan patted Lu Xinyue's shoulder like an older brother taking care of his neighbor's sister.

Damn! The boss actually patted me on the shoulder!

The electric feeling she had when her legs were touched in the business jet reappeared in her mind, and this time, because she was alone, it seemed even stronger. Lu Xinyue's whole body froze.

Well, the little girl is indeed sensitive, especially to my hands.

Shen Yuan flirted with her but didn't plan to stay too long. He said, "I'll go first," and walked out the door.

The pink gradually spread to her entire face. Lu Xinyue took a few deep breaths and it took her a long time to calm down. But when she touched her cheek, there was still some warmth left.

"Something seems to be wrong with this situation."

At this time, Yingfeng Pavilion.

Ji Ya packed her luggage, walked out and said to Tan Xin: "You can take a shower first. The food will be delivered in about 20 minutes."

Tan Xin was writing something in a notebook, his slender white fingers tapping the keyboard quickly.

Hearing Ji Ya's words, Tan Xin just said calmly: "It doesn't matter, I won't eat it."

"Ok."

Many girls don't eat midnight snacks, so Ji Ya wasn't surprised. She just walked over curiously and asked, "What are you doing?"

The laptop screen was filled with drawings of escape routes, fire-fighting facilities, surveillance blind spots, and even security layout diagrams.

"Uh, there's no need, Tan Xin. The boss is not the president of the country."

Tan Xin didn't look at her, and focused on operating the touch screen and keyboard: "There are risks, but they are very low. But we still have to try to avoid risks. This is my job."

"Ok."

Ji Ya felt that this was an exaggeration, but from her point of view, it was just a daily job.

She had always thought that the profession of bodyguard was somewhat mysterious, but now when she saw the person at work, she couldn't help but take a few more glances.

But as I watched, I became fascinated without realizing it.

Tan Xin planned three evacuation routes, and before that, he had already investigated the local crime rate, local gun control laws, and precautions for using batons, stun guns, etc.

"No wonder Tan Xin asked me for the itinerary plan before, it turned out to be for this."

Ji Ya thought silently in her heart.

She used to think that bodyguards only protected their employers' personal safety and rushed forward to block bullets when there was danger, but she didn't expect that they had to do so much work.

From this perspective, a $50 annual salary, the ability to drive, speak foreign languages, fight and use guns seems to be a good deal.

Then, Ji Ya saw that Tan Xin shared part of the content with the person in charge of Silver Shield Security in Japan.

"Does Silver Shield Security have a branch in Japan?" Ji Ya asked.

"When there are businesses and sites, problems or emergencies, we can call them over to help. They can also lend a hand when we encounter difficulties locally."

After finishing all this, Tan Xin closed his notebook and said, "Accompany me to check the boss's apartment."

"what to check for?"

"Whether the glass is one-way, whether the fire-fighting facilities are complete and can be used normally, whether there are eavesdropping devices, and whether there are blind spots in the surveillance of public areas."

"Why don't you go by yourself?" Ji Ya said.

Tan Xin's mouth twitched imperceptibly. Through today's contact, she had a general understanding of the boss's style.

In short, he is not a gentleman. (End of this chapter)
