I, Shen Bei’an, a rich second-generation heir whose surname is shared by many male protagonists in novels, transmigrated into a novel about a powerful boss after writing a 3,000-character critiqu...
"Aren't you going to the company today?" Shen Bei'an sat on the bar, swinging his legs idly as he watched Gu Nan'an busy in the kitchen.
"Since I promised to make you desserts and go to the races with you tonight, I've naturally set aside the whole day." Gu Nanyan didn't even look up, skillfully using the tools that Shen Bei'an couldn't even name.
"You're doing this all by yourself?" Shen Bei'an looked around but didn't see Aunt Wang.
Gu Nanyan continued what he was doing, "Aunt Wang isn't here, let her go and rest. Anyway, it's just the two of us today, I'll cook the meal. Consider it a day off for Aunt Wang and Uncle Chen."
Shen Beian nodded. Indeed, he hadn't seen Aunt Wang and Uncle Chen since he woke up this morning.
"Where are the others?"
"Of course they are busy with their work. Biluo Xiaozhu is so big that it needs to be cleaned every day. Everyone has their own job."
Shen Beian suddenly took out a simulation watch, seemingly doing something.
"No way, Biluo Xiaozhu has wheat fields and cornfields?!"
Looking at that map, I could hardly believe it.
"We only planted a little, just enough for our own consumption. Most of the flour, corn, soybeans, and other grains we use at home are grown in Biluo Xiaozhu."
It is no exaggeration to say that Biluo Xiaozhu itself is a relatively complete ecosystem that can support four or five people.
Shen Bei'an: This is even more impressive than foreign estates, isn't it?
Even if the apocalypse comes, he feels that Biluo Xiaozhu can hold out until he dies.
"Does that mean I can stay away from home for the rest of my life?" Shen Bei'an asked out of the blue.
"Yes, it should be fine if nothing unexpected happens." Gu Nanyan's answer was as calm as ever.
When did you start designing and building it?
“This place was originally the villa of a prince during the Qing Dynasty. Later, my great-grandfather bought it and gave it to me when I was born. At that time, I thought that this villa was really nice, and it also had natural hot springs. I just thought that if I had nothing to do when I grew up, I could come here to play.”
"So you didn't initially intend to make this your permanent residence?" Shen Bei'an understood the implication in Gu Nan'an's words.
Gu Nanyan turned on the oven, washed his hands, poured a glass of warm water, and walked towards Shen Bei'an with the crystal glass in his hand.
“Initially, we didn’t have one. We originally lived with my parents in Xinbu Xianting, but later we planned to buy a place in Luoxia Garden to live in.”
The elite residents of the capital city, living in the heart of the city, stroll leisurely through the most prestigious and powerful residences.
Luoxia Garden and Yueting Nanshe are residences where the younger generation mostly lives, both located in the city center, as is the Gu Group's Huanyu Building.
Shen Beian also owns a villa in Luoxia Garden.
"Then why did you decorate this place so nicely? Why did you come here?" Shen Beian subconsciously wrapped his arms around Gu Nanyan's waist and snuggled against her.
Even through several layers of clothing, he could feel his wife's perfect figure.
"Perhaps it's because someone said they wanted to try the life of a hermit, and coincidentally, I remembered that I have a villa in the suburbs, so I designed and renovated it." Gu Nanyan said it simply, but for such a large villa to be renovated to such a technological level, one can imagine the amount of work involved.
"Some parts were still fine, so we only added a few things and didn't make any major changes. However, for convenience, we are also updating it in real time."
"How long did it take?" Shen Beian held Tong's arms even tighter.
Gu Nanyan picked up his water glass, took a sip to moisten his throat, and continued, "From the time I started designing until we got married and moved in, it was constantly being renovated and updated, almost twelve years."
Her voice, as clear as ice and jade, was like a warm breeze caressing my heart.
Twelve years!
"Of course, it's not completely perfect yet. After all, technology is developing very quickly, and this place must keep up with the times." Her eyes curved, her phoenix eyes filled with countless stars and overflowing with love.
Shen Bei'an didn't ask whether it was worth it or not, because Gu Nan'an had done too many similar things.
"Alright, An'an, let go of my hand. I'll go make you something else. I can only make some snacks this morning; we'll make the desserts this afternoon." Gu Nanyan patted his hand gently.
Shen Beian let go, "Okay..." and continued to swing her two long legs.
"Don't you need my help?" Seeing Gu Nanyan busy at work, Shen Bei'an suddenly became interested in cooking.
Gu Nanyan saw through Shen Bei'an's intentions almost immediately. "Then, would you mind helping me whip the cream, An'an?"
"Okay!" She jumped down from the bar and came to Gu Nanyan's side, looking around at the unknown objects.
It's supposed to help whip cream, but really it's just a matter of turning on the whipper and watching.
"Ah Yan, I want to eat dragon fruit mille-feuille, grape mille-feuille, lychee mille-feuille, and chocolate mille-feuille..." Shen Beian glanced at the fruit and chocolate on the side, stood next to Gu Nanyan, and gently shook Gu Nanyan's arm.
“We agreed to only make grape crepe.” Gu Nanyan continued working, seemingly unaffected by Shen Bei’an’s words. “Besides, we’re going to watch the game tonight. If we go to the stadium, will you even have time to eat, An’an?”
In a tournament like Death Valley, all you'd probably do is yell and curse at each other's ancestors; you wouldn't get a bite to eat.
Shen Bei'an thought about it and it seemed to make sense...
His driving skills aren't very good; well, he's just a passable driver.
But that doesn't stop him from enjoying watching racing!
And I have to say, the female lead is incredibly cool when she drives!!
After arriving here, he searched and watched a lot of racing videos. The female lead's skills were absolutely amazing!
"But I want to eat it..." Her peach blossom eyes sparkled, her head tilted slightly, and her lips pouted, making her look innocent and adorable.
Gu Nanyan was already used to his behavior.
"You can make it a little smaller, I'll eat a bit of everything," Shen Beian compromised. "Besides, it's a whole day! We can go see a movie later, we'll need to eat then too~"
"So, Master Shen said he wanted to watch a movie, but it was for food after all," Gu Nanyan said, feigning understanding and speaking slowly.
"No way!" Shen Bei'an retorted repeatedly, "The most important thing is to enjoy the date with A-Yan. It's not easy for you to spend the whole day at home with me, don't you think?" She stepped forward and hugged Gu Nanyan, then lowered her head and kissed the mole on the back of Gu Nanyan's neck.
The tone of voice should be as sincere as possible.
Gu Nanyan sighed helplessly, "Alright, I'll do less of everything. Now our Fifth Master can go and choose a movie properly."
She turned and leaned down to kiss his lips. Perhaps because she was at home and not wearing her glasses, her sharp and cold phoenix eyes appeared gentle at first glance. What captivated Shen Beian even more was the vermilion beauty mark at the corner of his left eye.
Whether it was the right atmosphere or something else, Shen Beian slightly tiptoed up and tilted his head back to place a kiss on the beauty mark under his eye.
Then they quickly left, shouting, "I'm going to find a movie!"
If you don't leave now, are you waiting to be pinned down on the bar and kissed?
Gu Nanyan reached out and touched his face, gently rubbing his beauty mark with the pad of his middle finger, a smile playing on his lips.
She seemed to have discovered a quirk in her lover: he was particularly interested in the moles on her body.
The back of the neck is like this, and so is the face.
However, she seems a little too shy.
