“Miss Lu, it’s very hot outside. Be careful not to get heatstroke. Let’s go in. A box of green plum green tea just arrived last night. Do you want to try it?” Gu Fan said.

Gu Cheng also said, “It’s said that the tea was made with green plum from the Zhejiang Province and green tea from Taihu Dongting Mountain. I wanted to try it yesterday, but the Fourth Young Master couldn’t bear to.”

Lu Youyou nodded subconsciously. She glanced at the expressionless man in the wheelchair from the corner of her eye. “Did you prepare this for me?” She liked to drink customized green plum green tea. There were many of them on the market, but they all taste different. She rarely met any drink that she really liked, and he had prepared one for her?

Fang glanced at her but said nothing. He waved his hand instead.

Gu Fan quickly pushed him in.

Only then did Lu Youyou realize that there was no one else in the huge villa except for the four of them!

But soon, Lu Youyou’s attention was attracted by the decorations in the house again.

“Wow, Fang Yichu, I did not expect that your house would be decorated in such an unassuming manner! I thought it would be all black! I didn’t expect the main color theme to be milky white instead…”

“Fang Yichu, your bathroom is so cute. It’s the first time I’ve seen a bathroom using a mixture of royal blue and pale blue colors. It’s so beautiful…”

“This mural was drawn in the same style as the Mogao Cave. Fang Yichu, have you also been to the Mogao Cave in Dunhuang…”

“Ah! Fang Yichu, there are roses on your balcony! The wall is full of them and they’re so beautiful in full bloom…”

As Lu Youyou ran around, she chattered and exclaimed at whatever she saw. The originally lifeless house became lively because of her arrival.

Fang Yichu stayed where he was, but his eyes followed her wherever she went. His mind was filled with her soft voice calling out his name.

At last, she ran back panting and half-squatted in front of him. “Do you have to redecorate such a beautiful house? Ah, yes, I saw a chimney outside. What about the fireplace?”

Fang Yichu looked at her intently. “In the living room on the second floor.”

Hearing this, Lu Youyou quickly turned around and went upstairs.

“Miss Lu is so cute.” After Gu Fan spoke, he turned around and placed a pair of slippers in front of Fang Yichu. “Fourth Young Master.”

Fang Yichu did not move and his eyes continued to follow Lu Youyou. After a while, he said, “No need.”

Gu Fan was immediately surprised. “Fourth Young Master, isn’t Miss Lu your future wife…”

In Gu Fan’s opinion, the Fourth Young Master had looked for Lu Youyou for a year and by now, it was clear that he would never let go of her. Now that the girl he had been yearning for had become his fiancée and they were about to get married, wouldn’t… Could it be that he had guessed wrongly and the Fourth Young Master was not interested in Miss Lu at all?

“Don’t make wild guesses about my intentions!” Fang Yichu looked at Gu Fan sternly.

Gu Fan instantly took the slippers away and stood behind Fang Yichu again.

After a while, Lu Youyou returned. She squatted in front of Fang Yichu again and held up his hands. She had excitement in her eyes, and subconsciously acted cute to him. “Let’s not renovate it! Okay?”

Fang Yichu said nothing.

Lu Youyou could not help but shake his hands as she pouted. “I really like houses like this. The design is right on point with my sense of aesthetics… Don’t tear it down.”

Fang Yichu’s gaze swept over their entwined hands. “Okay.”

Lu Youyou was overjoyed. She let go of his hands and stood up. “I realized that you’re a nice person!”

Fang Yichu looked away uncomfortably.

Lu Youyou asked with a smile. “By the way, which room would I be staying in? I’ll take a look…”

Instantly, the relaxed atmosphere in the room felt like someone had pressed the pause button on it!

Gu Cheng’s expression changed, but as he looked at Lu Youyou’s innocent face, he suppressed his thoughts of complaining out loud. After all, she had just become an adult. She was a little too young to start sleeping in the same room with the Fourth Young Master.

However, Gu Fan said calmly. “Miss Lu, I think your mother must have taught you the responsibilities and obligations of a wife after marriage. Moreover, you went up to take a look just now. I believe you’ve already found the master bedroom that you’re about to share with the Fourth Young Master. Are there couples who slept in different rooms after marriage?”

Gu Fan was five years older than Gu Cheng. He was married and had a daughter as well. His wife was his childhood sweetheart and had followed Fang Yichu since he was young as well. She was in charge of Fang Yichu’s meals.

Embarrassment appeared on Lu Youyou’s face. In the eyes of her parents, she was still an ignorant child, but in the eyes of her in-laws, she was a grown woman who should fulfill her obligations and responsibilities as a wife to her husband. However, when it came to the matter of principles, she still had to make it clear. “Fang Yichu, let’s talk in private.”
