As Lin Jie stepped out of the airplane cabin, he felt a thick warmth envelop him, as if he had jumped into a hot spring.

Watching the passengers ahead shed their coats and sweaters as they walked, he laughed and advised, "Miaomiao, Kemeng, it's as if we've come straight from winter to summer. Our bodies need some time to adjust, don't rush to change clothes."

"In cold Binhai, our clothes keep us warm and prevent heat loss. But here, these same clothes are blocking the heat from outside."

Lin Miao and An Kemeng, who had been halfway through taking off their wool sweaters, stopped and put them back on after hearing Lin Jie's advice.

An Kemeng grumbled, "Brother Lin Jie, you're the expert, so we'll listen to you. But how long do we have to wear these heavy clothes?"

Lin Jie casually replied, "Half an hour to an hour should be enough. Our bodies are pretty good at self-regulating and adapting."

The three first collected their checked luggage and then retrieved Lele, who had been waiting impatiently, heading towards the terminal exit.

"Brother, look... over there is a Tianya Haijiao Resort sign!"

Following Lin Miao's direction, Lin Jie saw someone holding a "Tianya Haijiao Resort" sign, gathering tourists heading there. Just as he was about to head over, An Kemeng tugged on his sleeve.

"Brother Lin Jie, is that who you're supposed to meet?"

Lin Jie looked in the direction An Kemeng was pointing and saw a woman in a body-hugging short skirt and short-sleeve white blouse, holding up an A4 paper with the words "Mr. Lin Jie from Binhai" written on it.

Lin Jie whispered, "It's pretty clear, maybe it's for me. Let's go ask!"

Before they got closer, the woman spotted the three of them. Her face broke into a warm smile as she put away the A4 paper and said, "Mr. Lin Jie, I am Bai Qili from Tianya Haijiao Resort. I've been sent by the boss to pick you up specifically."

"Thank you!"

Lin Jie pointed to the resort sign beside it and asked, "And that sign?"

Bai Qili enthusiastically took An Kemeng's suitcase and said, "That's also for guests going to the resort, but it's waiting for a few more flights so they can all go back together."

Lin Jie immediately recalled something Ye Hongqing had mentioned before. He once thought Ye was bragging, but it turned out he really had connections here.

Stepping out of the terminal, the long-missed strong sunlight hit them directly.

The three immediately felt the power of the sun, dominating and blazing, and soon tiny beads of sweat appeared on their faces!

"Brother Lin Jie, I'm sweating, feeling all sticky and uncomfortable, can we change now?" An Kemeng pleaded pitifully!

Lin Miao quickly chimed in, "Brother, me too!"

Lin Jie also felt the heat creeping up on him and said, "Alright, alright, you can change now!"

Bai Qili turned and laughed, "No need to rush, we'll be in the car soon, it's more convenient to change there!"

Two minutes later, they arrived at the parking lot and boarded a luxury business minivan. Bai Qili drove them out of the airport.

The car's interior was quite spacious, and An Kemeng and Lin Miao exchanged glances, saying in unison, "Brother/Lin Jie, close your eyes, we're going to change!"

"No peeking!"

Lin Jie snorted dismissively and closed his eyes, soon hearing the rustling sound of clothes being taken off.

A few minutes later, he finally heard Lin Miao's voice, "Alright, brother, you can open your eyes now."

Lin Jie opened his eyes and saw Lin Miao wearing crystal sandals, white shorts, and a short-sleeve black and white striped T-shirt, looking vibrant and lively.

While An Kemeng was in flip-flops, denim shorts, and a cropped tight T-shirt, looking a bit too revealing!

Having been covered up for months, their skin was so fair in the sudden exposure, it almost dazzled Lin Jie's eyes, especially An Kemeng's ten little toes painted with bright red nail polish, which were particularly striking.

At this moment, Lin Jie also noticed that Lin Miao's toenails were painted too, but in a pearl white flesh tone!

An Kemeng noticed Lin Jie's gaze and curled her ten toes, giggling, "Miaomiao and I got these manicures together yesterday. Do they look nice?"

"They're alright," Lin Jie answered perfunctorily!

Lin Miao softly said, "Brother, now it's your turn to change!"

"We promise not to peek!" An Kemeng added with a playful cover of her ears to feign ignorance.

At this point, Lin Jie had already taken off his coat and sweater, wearing just a shirt and not feeling too hot. He snorted and said, "I'll just change once we reach the resort!"

An hour and a half later, the minivan arrived at Tianya Haijiao Resort.

This was a large resort covering thousands of acres, featuring a five-star hotel, standalone beachside villas, a private coastline stretching two to three kilometers, and a small yacht port!

The minivan finally parked at a blue building situated on seaside rocks.

As Bai Qili led them inside, she introduced, "Mr. Lin, this is a residence our boss specially arranged for you and your friends."

"This is a two-story building with four bedrooms, fully equipped, offering a 360-degree sea view."

"Especially the master bedroom, where you can enjoy sunrises and sunsets over the sea and sleep to the sound of waves under a sky full of stars at night."

Lin Jie looked around and noticed the delicate decor, with most of the walls made of tempered glass, offering endless ocean views from three directions, and a clear sight of the main hotel building nearby and various standalone structures hidden among banana and coconut trees.

There was also a viewing platform on the top floor, spacious enough to host a small party of twenty or thirty people!

With Bai Qili's introduction, Lin Jie toured the entire building and was very satisfied.

They returned to the living room on the ground floor, and Lin Jie politely said, "Thank you, Miss Bai. Please convey my most sincere thanks to your boss!"

Bai Qili smiled sweetly and said, "The boss mentioned that you're a friend of Mr. Ye, so you're his friend too. Here you can feel completely at ease, just as if you're at home."

She handed Lin Jie a brochure from the counter by the door and said, "This details all the services offered by the resort. Please ignore the prices at the back. As a VIP guest of our boss, all expenses here for you and your friends are complimentary."

"I really can't accept this..."

Just as Lin Jie was being polite, Lin Miao and An Kemeng, now wearing their swimsuits and each holding a swim ring, rushed down from upstairs and whisked out of the small building, racing along a rugged path towards the sea.

Lele was not to be outdone and chased after them!

With the sea breeze came a shout, "We're going swimming, hurry up and join us!"
