Having lived a second life, Lin Qingyan still felt incredibly naive. He followed Gu Fei into the villa, unable to resist curiously looking around at the enormous house.
The overall color scheme is gray and white, with a European style. Every decoration and furnishing is very exquisite and grand, but there are not many traces of life. Although it is beautiful, it looks a bit cold.
He glanced at the man walking ahead and realized that the house, like its owner, always carried an aloof and detached air, keeping people at arm's length.
Just then, footsteps sounded upstairs, and someone came down the spiral staircase. It was a middle-aged man in a black suit, about forty years old, with a mature and refined appearance, a tall and upright figure, and clean and proper attire. He was also wearing a pair of white gloves.
He's a very charming middle-aged man.
Just as Lin Qingyan was about to look away, the middle-aged man seemed to notice that someone was watching him. He suddenly looked at Lin Qingyan with a scrutinizing and probing gaze.
Lin Qingyan smiled politely at him.
The middle-aged man calmly nodded at him and quickly looked away. Shen Yuting wasn't too surprised that there was a stranger in the room. He had guessed it when Master Gu suddenly asked him to tidy up the guest room next to the master bedroom.
Shen Yuting walked up to Gu Fei, bowed slightly, and spoke in a calm but respectful tone: "Mr. Gu, I have already tidied up the guest room as you instructed."
"Yes, thank you for your hard work." After Gu Fei finished speaking, he waved to the boy standing behind him. Lin Qingyan obediently walked to his side. "This is Butler Uncle Shen. You can ask him for help if you need anything in the future."
Lin Qingyan nodded and obediently greeted Uncle Chen. She hadn't expected that the butlers here would all have such extraordinary temperament, mature and refined, with good figures, the kind of men who could debut as celebrities on the spot.
Some fans just like this kind of handsome older man.
Gu Fei then briefly introduced Lin Qingyan to Shen Yuting, only saying his name, "Uncle Shen, he will be living here from now on. Treat him the same way you usually treat me."
Lin Qingyan: "..."
Didn't I say I was only staying one night?
How did it turn into us living here from now on?
Lin Qingyan was lost in thought and didn't notice that someone was subtly observing him.
A few seconds later, Shen Yuting looked away, concealing the strange emotion that had surfaced in his eyes. Master Gu rarely brought people back, and he had never paid so much attention to anyone as he did now.
The young man did look pretty and well-behaved, but there was no shortage of pretty and well-behaved people around Gu Fei, and none of them seemed to catch his eye.
Shen Yuting was a smart man. He knew that this young man surnamed Lin was different. Master Gu not only let the young man live in the room next to the master bedroom, but also told him to treat the young man like a master.
I wonder what's so special about this kid.
If there's anything special about this child, it's that he has a very clean temperament and clear eyes. Even though the clothes he wears are cheap and ordinary, they can't hide this quality.
Having lived in the Gu family for so many years, Shen Yuting knew very well that he couldn't pry into his master's private affairs. Since Master Gu had given such an order, he naturally did as he was told.
He secretly suppressed his doubts and faced the handsome young man before him with the same respect, "Young Master Lin, please feel free to give me any instructions in the future."
Lin Qingyan was somewhat flattered; he had never experienced such a scene before. "Uncle Chen, you don't need to be so polite..."
Gu Fei said, "Uncle Shen, it's getting late, you should go and get some rest."
"Yes, then Mr. Gu and Young Master Lin should also get some rest. Good night."
The housekeeper left, and Gu Fei, carrying a suitcase in one hand, naturally took the boy's wrist with the other and led him upstairs, saying in a matter-of-fact tone, "Let me show you the room."
Lin Qingyan still couldn't face it with a calm mind. If the man turned around at this moment, he would see the boy's thin lips pursed nervously, and the tips of his fair ears slightly red.
This large villa has many rooms, but most of them have never been lived in. The servants clean it every now and then, so it is kept very clean.
Especially the room next to Gu Fei's bedroom, which the housekeeper had just cleaned, was even cleaner and tidier than the hotel rooms, and it was very large, with a separate bathroom and dressing room.
The necessary toiletries such as towels and toothbrushes are all placed in the bathroom, while the walk-in closet is empty, waiting for the new owner to add items to it.
Gu Fei led Lin Qingyan on a tour inside.
It was already past 11 p.m. Gu Fei glanced at the time and didn't say anything more. "It's late. You should wash up and rest first. If you need anything, come find me in the next room."
Lin Qingyan nodded obediently, bowed slightly awkwardly to the man to thank him, her dark, bright eyes filled with sincerity, "Mr. Gu, thank you for taking me in tonight, otherwise I really wouldn't know where to go."
Faced with the boy's sincere and earnest thanks, Gu Fei was stunned for a moment, unsure of what to say. After a couple of seconds, he said, "It was nothing, you're welcome."
The man's tone was somewhat stiff. After speaking, he turned to leave, but stopped after taking only two steps. He glanced back at the boy behind him and casually tossed out a sentence: "No need to call me Mr. Gu, just call me Brother Fei."
Before Lin Qingyan could react, the man had already disappeared, closing the door behind him.
"Brother Fei..." he murmured, a sweet smile creeping onto his lips, like a child who had just stolen some candy.
Everything that happened today feels like a dream.
Reborn five years in the past, he refuses to sign with Platinum Entertainment, encounters the man who may have taken care of him in his past life, and goes home with him...
It seemed as if heaven had truly smiled upon him.
Meanwhile, Gu Fei returned to his bedroom. He did nothing but stand with his hands in his pockets, leaning against the door for a few minutes, lost in thought. His calm eyes revealed no emotion.
A moment later, he casually smoothed his hair, unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, which he had always kept tightly closed, revealing half of his sexy collarbone. It was as if he had shed his dignified and serious side, and gained a touch of casualness and laziness.
Gu Fei walked to the locker, bent down, opened the drawer, and took out the digital camera inside. The camera looked quite old, but it was well preserved.
He opened his camera and looked at the photos one by one. The main characters were always two people: a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy and an eight or nine-year-old boy.
"Little liar."
