âItâs just that there are a lot of things piled up on the coffee table, so it shouldnât be too messy, right? Iâve just moved in, so I wasnât used to it at first, but Iâve been very careful not to mess it up.â
Zuo Yue spoke innocently, but Xu Chengfeng looked around with a cold expression. He saw that only the coffee table and sofa were messy. The other places were just not cleaned every day, and there was a thin layer of dust.
Seeing that he didnât even bother to look in the direction of the coffee table when he walked in, Zuo Yue quickly tidied up the coffee table.
In the past, she was used to having servants and her mother take care of her at home. She had never cleaned it. A few days ago, in the apartment, she was even mocked by her mother for sleeping in a pigsty.
However, this villa was not her own place after all. She had really restrained herself, but she was still despised.
If he was disgusted by this, then how clean must she clean the villa every day to satisfy him? Would he be willing to let her keep the card?
Sure enough, Xu Chengfeng, this bastard mysophobia, had already gone to open her bedroom. He saw that she was in a mess inside, and there was a blanket that wasnât folded at all. In that instant, the veins on Xu Chengfengâs forehead throbbed violently. He had inexplicably taken over this big trouble, and it could no longer be described with simple words.
âIâll remember to fold the blanket in the future. Besides, this is my bedroom now. Is it really okay for you to open my bedroom door so casually?âZuo Yue stood behind him and deliberately provoked him.ââWhat if you see something you shouldnât seeâ¦â
âWhat shouldnât be seen?â Xu Chengfeng closed the bedroom door and turned around to glance at her.ââWhat shouldnât I look at when youâre a young girl who hasnât fully developed?â
Zuo Yueâs tone choked at first, then she immediately turned her head and followed behind him, shouting in dissatisfaction. As she chased after him, she said angrily,âWhat do you mean by a girl who hasnât fully developed? Iâm eighteen years old, okay? Even if I didnât have the big breasts and butt of those western women, Iâm already an adult! Why am I not fully developed? Even if Iâm not some stunning beauty, Iâm still a member of the beauty team. Iâm definitely not inferior to the girl beside you today, okay?!â
Xu Chengfeng stopped in his tracks and looked back at her strangely.ââWhat does it have to do with her? Why did you suddenly mention her?â
Zuo Yue followed him to the side of the sofa. Xu Chengfeng glanced at the coffee table that she had carelessly tidied up, but it was as if she hadnât tidied up at all. He then glanced at the sofa. Obviously, he didnât intend to sit there. He walked around the area around the sofa and coffee table and turned to the other side.
Isnât she your girlfriend?â Zuo Yue asked with a gossipy look,â You said that you would be going on a business trip in the next two days. In the end, you came back so early. You even went shopping with that girl. If you say that sheâs not your girlfriend, I wonât believe it!ââ
Xu Chengfeng gave her a cold and indifferent back view. He did not intend to explain. He went to the wine cabinet and opened the glass door, pouring a glass of red wine.
Zuo Yue saw the red wine in his hand and followed him.ââI noticed it two days ago. Your wine cabinet is full of good wine. This Lafite is from 1984. It should taste good, right? I havenât been drinking for a long time, but I still hold back, I dare not open a bottle to drink, now, since youâre back, I dare you to drink, I donât have any meaning, I want, I donât want, I also pour a cup.â
Xu Chengfeng held the wine glass in his hand and looked at her with a lukewarm expression. He did not answer her, but his action of closing the wine cabinet door was an obvious rejection.
Zuo Yueâs expression instantly turned ugly as she muttered,ââStingy.â
âYour mother asked me to take care of you, but she didnât say that I should buy you a drink. A student should behave like a student.âXu Chengfeng did not intend to deal with her, but he spoke in a cold, educational tone.
Zuo Yue rolled her eyes at him.â I grew up in the United States, not China. You donât have to educate me like how the Chinese educate their children. When I was 14, I drank with my father. My father didnât say anything, but now you really treat yourself as my elder.â
The little girlâs tone of complaint and unwillingness was very strong. Xu Chengfeng elegantly swirled the wine glass in his hand. The red wine swirled back and forth in the glass. After a moment, he handed the glass of red wine to her.
Zuo Yueâs expression froze. She glanced at the wine glass in front of her and then looked up at Xu Chengfeng.
âItâs good for women to drink red wine occasionally.âWhen she took it, Xu Chengfeng retracted his hand and turned around to enter the bathroom.
Zuo Yue stood rooted to the ground, holding the glass of wine. She thought about the warmth that flashed in Xu Chengfengâs eyes when he handed her the glass of red wine. Although it was very faint, he had indeed treated her like a child and spoiled her in that instant.
After all, she was still his niece. Even though they were once strangers, he was still giving in to her, wasnât he?
Zuo Yue suddenly smiled and lowered her head to taste the wine.
Hehe, itâs delicious!
*****
At night.
Zuo Yue tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. When she lived alone in this villa, she did not suffer from insomnia.
However, tonight was the first time she was in this villa with her youngest uncle at the same time. It was the first time she was under the same roof with a man she was not familiar with but was not unfamiliar with.
Although she had noticed that Xu Chengfeng seemed to have gone to the study room before she returned to the bedroom, she could not fall asleep. He must have been busy with something or perhaps he had not rested yet.
After rummaging in bed for a long time, Zuo Yue suddenly sat up, planning to go downstairs to the study room to bring a laptop up. Perhaps playing games or something would make the night pass faster!
When she walked out of the bedroom, it was quiet as if she was still the only one living here. However, when she walked to the stairs and looked down, she saw that the light in the living room was still on. There seemed to be the sound of the coffee machine at the bottom of the stairs. She could vaguely smell the smell of coffee.
Is Uncle brewing coffee?
Zuo Zuo Yue walked down curiously. From the corner of the marble staircase from the second floor to the first floor, she looked down and saw that Xu Chengfeng was indeed standing next to the coffee machine.
âItâs already so late, and youâre still making coffee. Are you planning to stay up all night in the study to work until dawn?âShe walked down as she spoke.
When she was about five or six steps away from the ground, Xu Chengfeng turned around to look at her when he heard her voice.
In the end, the moment he turned around, his firm chest was revealed in front of the bathrobe. It instantly reminded Zuo Yue of the scene she had accidentally bumped into in the bathroom. An emotion flashed in her mind, and her feet slipped inexplicably at the same time. Suddenly, her entire body fell down.
âAh!â
