"I was so stupid. Weren't those two dresses in the luggage Xu Meng'an sent you?"
Leng Lie muttered dejectedly as he unpacked the package.
Guan Yuxi comforted him, saying, "It's okay, you just wanted me to dress nicely, didn't you?"
Ignorance is no excuse.
Besides, she quite enjoys having such a sticky, close-fitting bodyguard.
Putting everything else aside, from Hongshi to Kyoto, she didn't have to worry about anything the whole way.
And the samples that Xu Meng'an packed and sent to her were huge; if it weren't for him, she wouldn't know how she would have gotten them back!
Upon hearing this, Leng Lie immediately beamed with joy again, "Xi Xi understands me best."
His strategy was to retreat in order to advance.
Now that Guan Yuxi doesn't blame him, why would he feel sorry for himself anymore?
Guan Yuxi glared at him speechlessly, then looked at the two large bags of clothes, somewhat worried, "So many?"
Their room was fairly large, but where were they going to hang so many clothes?
If you don't hang it up, it'll look all wrinkled and crumpled, not much different from a bunch of things sold by weight.
She wondered if she should ask Fang Yuan to lend her a house.
"You forgot, we still have this!"
Leng Lie slowly rummaged through his backpack and pulled out a file folder, handing it to her.
"This is......"
Guan Yuxi was overjoyed.
She remembered—this was a parting gift from Fang Yuan!
She opened the bag and was overjoyed to see the address on the property deed.
"Brother Lie, that's great! Wangping Street is nearby. Let's go take a look!"
Guan Yuxi acted immediately.
Excitedly, she pulled Leng Lie out the door.
However, she had only looked at the map and knew that Wangping Street was nearby; she would have to rely on Leng Lie to find it.
Because she has no sense of direction!
I saw her take out a map and walk around in circles, trying to find the right direction.
Leng Lie casually confiscated it from her, saying, "Let's go, I know the way."
He took her hand and, under her questioning gaze, strolled leisurely through two alleys, leading her to the door.
"Oh, you've been here before?"
Guan Yuxi walked and looked around.
They walked across the middle of the alley without even looking, yet he knew which end of the queue to go.
If you say it's because she has a good sense of direction, she'd disagree a hundred times!
Leng Lie smiled without saying a word. He stepped forward, unlocked the door, and gestured for him to enter.
Guan Yuxi was extremely surprised that Fang Yuan had actually given her a courtyard house.
What kind of wealthy family must this brat come from?
Is this really the place?
Guan Yuxi hesitated, and couldn't help but run next door to check the house number.
Only after checking both the left and right sides was it confirmed that there was no mistake.
She stood at the door, hesitating, and asked, "What do you mean by Fang Yuan? Why did he give me such a generous gift?"
Could he have taken a liking to me? I can't accept that! I'm already married to you, how can I give him false hope again?
In the 21st century, he was a self-made millionaire who could earn a small fortune simply by talking.
His family has a rich second-generation brat who's quite generous with his money.
It's said that he frequently changes girlfriends, but his reputation within the industry is exceptionally good.
Why? Because they're incredibly generous; breakup gifts include houses and cars worth tens of millions, whichever they choose.
That's something an ordinary person couldn't achieve even if they worked their entire life without eating or drinking.
Could Fang Yuan be one of those bratty kids?
Guan Yuxi was somewhat conflicted.
Although that guy wasn't bad-looking, he just didn't fit her aesthetic standards.
She still prefers a rugged man like Leng Lie, with broad shoulders, long limbs, a strong sense of security, and overflowing boyfriend charm.
Leng Lie: "......"
Who was it that confidently declared, "If he dares to give it, she dares to accept it?"
It's just a small, dilapidated courtyard, yet she's thinking about her own beauty?
However, she could still think that since she was already married to him, she wouldn't let other men have designs on her.
He was actually quite pleased.
"It's just a courtyard. Let's take a look first. If you're not comfortable with it, we'll just give him the money."
Leng Lie led her inside.
Guan Yuxi: "......"
Okay, she was overthinking it.
She kept thinking about the 21st century, and what she saw in the news about courtyard houses in Kyoto costing hundreds of millions of dollars.
But they forgot that these ordinary courtyards had long been demolished during the real estate development process.
Although the relocation compensation is also high, those courtyards that cost hundreds of millions are all in good locations and have certain historical or cultural value. These ordinary courtyards are far inferior.
Leng Lie added, "You forgot, Old Man Dai and Fang Yuan value your ability to forge documents more."
Rather than her as a person.
Guan Yuxi chuckled.
It's no wonder she had wild thoughts; after all, she was just an ordinary police officer in the 21st century.
Her extraordinary ability to "create antiques" did not bring her enormous wealth.
She's usually exposed to tabloid news from the media, so what can she possibly think when she's suddenly startled?
The courtyard is neither too big nor too small, about 300 square meters.
Directly opposite the door is a large living room. To the left are the kitchen and dining room connected to a small vegetable garden, plus a main room and a side room; to the right are two side rooms and two side rooms.
In the middle of the courtyard, there is a well and three empty flower beds.
In the corner, there is a dormant grapevine.
Under the grapevines, there was also a double rocking chair.
Guan Yuxi fell in love at first sight.
This is truly a case of small but perfectly formed.
She had already figured out how to arrange and decorate those rooms.
