Chapter 20 Preparing gifts
I thought she could hold out for a long time to achieve her ultimate goal, but I didn't expect her to give up after only a few days.
At this moment, Su Yuchen was even more convinced that Yun Yao had ulterior motives for approaching him.
What should have been a happy occasion instead filled Su Yuchen with inexplicable irritation.
In the evening, Su Yuchen rarely came out of his study. He looked at the still empty living room and his eyes darkened.
Wang Ma spoke up from the side.
"Young master, what are you looking for?"
Su Yuchen snapped out of his daze and quickly made up an excuse.
"Pour water."
Wang Ma was somewhat puzzled.
Isn't there a water dispenser in the young master's study?
Water was spilling from the cup in Su Yuchen's hand.
"Young Master! It's full!"
Su Yuchen snapped out of his daze and lost all interest in drinking water, so he poured the water directly into the pool.
"Suddenly I'm not thirsty anymore."
Wang Ma sighed as she watched Su Yuchen's retreating figure.
"Since the young mistress came, this villa has been warm and cozy, and it feels more lively."
"Now that he's gone, it's quiet and deserted again."
Upon hearing this, Su Yuchen lowered his eyes slightly.
is it?
Has Yun Yao already had such a big impact here in just a few days?
Throughout the evening, Su Yuchen was distracted while working.
As it approached eleven o'clock, he couldn't help but check the time.
Normally, she would be knocking on the door to deliver milk at this time.
today……
"Boom boom boom!"
The door rang again.
In the past, Su Yuchen would never have paid any attention to him, but today, he hurriedly opened the door.
The first thing you see is a bunch of vibrant red roses.
Su Yuchen was momentarily dazed.
Have a nice night!
Yun Yao's little head peeked out from behind the bouquet.
Her bright smile, like a ray of sunshine, shone directly into Su Yuchen's heart, melting the frozen water within.
Seeing that Su Yuchen did not react for a long time, Yun Yao's eyes dimmed.
"Never mind, I knew you wouldn't like it."
"Then I'll throw it away."
Before Su Yuchen could speak, Yun Yao threw the bouquet of flowers into the trash can.
Then, Yun Yao slammed the door shut.
Su Yuchen didn't know how to react, but when he saw that Yun Yao hadn't left and had instead bought him flowers, his heart felt warm.
Yun Yao stormed downstairs.
Wang Ma greeted her with a beaming smile.
"Young Madam, please don't be offended. The young master is allergic to pollen."
Yun Yao looked at Wang Ma with a mixture of belief and doubt.
"Don't you think Su Yuchen is acting strange today?"
Wang Ma paused for a moment, thought about it carefully, and then nodded in response.
"Yes! Young Master was acting very strangely today. He didn't even realize the cup was full when he was pouring water!"
Yun Yao seemed to be deep in thought.
"Is he sick?"
Thinking this, Yun Yao hurriedly went to the kitchen to heat up the milk.
"I saw online that drinking more hot water can cure all diseases."
"What nutrition does hot water have? You should drink more milk instead!"
Looking at Yun Yao's attentive manner, Wang Ma couldn't help but sigh.
"The young mistress is so wonderful, it's a pity the young master doesn't like her!"
Yun Yao brought the milk to Su Yuchen's study door as usual.
"Su Yuchen, I left the milk at your door. Remember to drink it."
Although Yun Yao knew that what was said online was all lies, what if Su Yuchen liked these little details?
Yun Yao turned and left, unaware that Su Yuchen in the study was currently caught in an endless dilemma.
He realized that Yun Yao had become a part of his life.
He would be restless and uneasy because of Yun Yao's sudden disappearance.
This is definitely not a good thing.
However, so far, apart from wanting him as a person, Yun Yao has not done anything that would be detrimental to him or the Su family.
With that thought in mind, Su Yuchen opened the door.
At the doorway, Chen Dong, who was sipping milk, was completely stunned.
"Young Master?"
Su Yuchen stared intently at the empty cup in Chen Dong's hand, his voice somewhat sinister.
"Who gave you permission to drink this milk?"
Chen Dong felt a little guilty.
“I… I always leave a glass of milk here whenever I come to see you. Aunt Wang says you won’t drink it, and I think it would be a waste to pour it out, so I…”
"Oh!"
Su Yuchen slammed the door shut.
"You're deducting my entire salary for this month!"
Hearing the sounds coming from the study, Chen Dong had no words to express his bitterness.
"Young master, it's just a glass of milk, is it really that expensive?"
No one responded.
Chen Dong left dejectedly, his head hanging low.
……
That night, as usual, Yun Yao snuck into Su Yuchen's room with her blanket.
As soon as she entered, she was drawn in by a faint floral fragrance.
Looking up, he saw that the bouquet of roses that should have been in the trash can was placed on Su Yuchen's bedside table.
Yun Yao's lips curled slightly.
Didn't you say you're allergic to pollen?
It seems... boiling a frog in warm milk is effective.
With that thought in mind, Yun Yao tiptoed onto the bed.
When he heard Yun Yao's long, even breathing sounds, Su Yuchen, who had his back to her, opened his eyes.
By the moonlight, he looked at the bouquet of roses, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips.
……
The next day, when Yun Yao woke up, Su Yuchen was no longer there.
The spot next to me was cold.
It seems they've been up for quite some time.
Yun Yao stretched and slowly entered the bathroom.
When she finished showering and found an extra set of women's toiletries on the sink, she couldn't help but smile.
She had a feeling that the day she successfully won over Su Yuchen was not far off!
Heaven rewards those who persevere!
Wang Ma was unusually attentive today.
"Young Madam, the young master said he won't be coming home for dinner tonight."
Yun Yao waved her hand.
"understood."
It's better if she doesn't come back; she has things to do today.
Yesterday, when I went out to buy flowers, Luo Hong called and said he had something important to report.
Luo Hong's serious attitude suggests that he must have something important to discuss.
Yun Yao drove her Passat slowly to a private club.
Luo Hong had been waiting for a long time. When he saw Yun Yao enter, he hurriedly stood up and bowed.
"Ancestor, you've arrived."
In front of Luo Hong, Yun Yao didn't need to pretend at all; she nestled into the sofa, her posture languid.
"Speak your mind!" She's in a hurry to go home and be a good wife and mother!
Luo Hong bowed again.
“Ancestor, I didn’t want to bother you, but this matter is of great importance, so it would be more prudent for us to discuss it in person.”
Yun Yao picked up the glass of red wine on the table and took a small sip.
"Say it quickly!"
Luo Hong nodded and slowly began to explain.
"Ten thousand years ago, the jade pendant you wore close to your body was lost, which meant that you could only exist as a soul because you had no new vessel."
"Now, the jade pendant has appeared in the world."
Yun Yao paused, her voice turning cold and stern.
"Are you sure it's my jade pendant?"
"determine."
Yun Yao's eyes darkened slightly.
"Take it back at all costs."
"I understand, but this society follows the rule of law, and we cannot simply rob people."
Yun Yao was getting a little impatient.
"What should I do?"
"Ten days from now, an auction will be held in Nancheng, and the jade pendant will be among the items on the list."
Yun Yao said in a deep voice, "I want an invitation to the auction."
Yun Yao suddenly thought of something.
"Fine, you can give the notice to the Yun family. I'll take Yun Zhengfeng with me!"
"Yes!"
