Just as he finished speaking, a middle-aged man in a black suit came from the backyard. He stood straight and had a sense of elegance. He nodded slightly at the two of them and said, "Master, Madam, you are here."
"How's the backyard renovation going?" Rong Zhan nodded lightly, his clear and deep voice flowing with the wind.
“It will be finished in the next week or so.”
"This is the future steward of Yangshuijian, Uncle Qin, Qin Yu's father." Rong Zhan retracted his gaze and introduced to Su Yang: "Uncle Qin was my father's study partner. He had a major surgery a few years ago and stepped down from the position of steward of Rongyuan to recuperate."
Su Yang nodded in understanding and gave Uncle Qin a faint smile.
She said that when she first saw him, she felt that he looked familiar, and it turned out that he was Qin Yu's father. They really looked quite similar.
"I hope you can give me more advice in the future, Madam." Uncle Qin responded to Su Yang with a kind smile, "Master, Madam, are you going to have dinner here, or go back to Rongge Mansion?"
"Right here."
"Yes, Madam, these two alpacas are very docile. Don't worry, there is food specially for them. You can try feeding them."
Su Yang nodded: "Okay."
"Then Master and Madam, please go shopping first. I will go and tell the kitchen to prepare dinner for you."
The setting sun painted half of the sky orange, and its reflection on the water made the water sparkle.
The figure was lengthened by the afterglow. Su Yang looked at Uncle Qin's departing back and the way he walked, and asked softly, "Is Uncle Qin's leg not okay?"
"Well, the major surgery I had a few years ago was on my leg."
"Since you have difficulty in moving, shouldn't you take good care of yourself and recover?"
"It was arranged by Qin Yu." Rong Zhan curled his lips lightly, walked to the ebony rack next to him, took two carrots and handed them to her: "Qin Yu's mother passed away a long time ago, and he and Uncle Qin depended on each other for survival. Uncle Qin fell ill a few years ago, which also dealt him a big blow."
"Uncle Qin is a kind person, but he also has a strong temper. He can't accept sitting in a wheelchair. He has been working hard to recover in the past few years. Now that he has almost recovered, he naturally can't sit idle. He is also afraid of dragging Qin Yu down and doesn't want to burden Qin Yu."
"Qin Yu was worried that he would not be able to get over it. He thought that he used to be a housekeeper, so it would be good for him to be a housekeeper in Yangshuijian now. The slow pace of life here would also help his foot injury."
After listening to Qin Yu's idea, he agreed without hesitation.
Uncle Qin watched him grow up and took great care of him, treating him even closer than his own son Qin Yu. His status and weight in the Rong family were not insignificant. In his heart, he had even far surpassed his so-called second uncle Rong Chong.
Su Yang had just been married into the Rong family for a short time and didn't know much about the Rong family.
But after hearing him say this, I suddenly felt that Rong Zhan was not as heartless and indifferent as the rumors said.
He is cruel to everyone else, but very considerate to those around him.
"I just heard you say that the backyard was being renovated. What were they renovating?" Su Yang collected his thoughts, took the carrot from his hand and fed it to the alpaca.
The alpaca came over and took a bite of the carrot, chewing it obediently.
"The swimming pool in the backyard was so ugly that it made me dizzy. We had it redesigned. The garage in the back is also being renovated. I remember you seemed to like sycamore trees?"
"How do you know?"
"It's marked in the book on your bedside table." Rong Zhan chuckled, "Next week, when the back is almost done, I'll have someone move a few French plane trees over here."
Su Yang was a little surprised, and felt that the manor seemed to be decorated according to her preferences.
"Wen Yang."
"Um?"
"From today on, this Yangshuijian Manor belongs to you."
A breeze blew by, and the golden orange light reflected on her fair, beautiful and slightly cold face. Her soft and shiny black hair was messed up, and the half carrot in her hand was taken away by the alpaca, but she did not retract her hand that was suspended in the air.
"You bought this manor... for me?" Su Yang slowly came back to his senses and tried to find his own voice in the sunset.
"The wedding gift...isn't it that necklace?"
Rong Zhan: “…”
Oh, he almost forgot about the necklace.
"Then consider it as a hundred-day gift." Rong Zhan narrowed his eyes, thought deeply, and spoke calmly.
The corner of Su Yang's mouth twitched slightly. This was really casual.
Are all rich people so willful?
"Why do you suddenly want to give me the manor?" Su Yang pursed his lips and asked in confusion.
"I have a lot of money but nowhere to spend it. This piece of land is nice and the name is also good, so I just bought it. What reason do I need?" Rong Zhan sneered and spread his hands. His cold voice sounded particularly righteous and arrogant.
Su Yang: “…”
"Don't want it?" Seeing her calm expression, Rong Zhan frowned and asked unhappily.
"No……"
"Even if you don't want it, you have to give it to me. Anyway, this manor is already under your name." Rong Zhan interrupted her with an attitude of forcing her, speaking in an angry voice.
Is there a gift that Rong Zhan can't give away? It doesn't exist.
Su Yang laughed and raised her hand to ruffle her hair that was messed up by the wind: "It's not that I don't want it, I just think this gift is... a little too expensive."
As for this manor, plus the cost of his renovation, the standard price in the imperial capital is at least nine digits starting with five.
For the necklace he gave her that time, she could still buy a branded tie as a return gift.
But this house...
She really can't afford to go back!
"What's so valuable? I didn't ask you to return it. I gave it to you. I'm happy with it. Just keep it." Rong Zhan snorted, "If you really feel embarrassed and want to return it, I won't stop you. But you have to find a way that I like."
After all, he never lacks money.
He could take out 18 billion without blinking an eye.
"What method?" Su Yang became curious.
Hearing this, Rong Zhan's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed. He faced her, raised his hand and poked his cheek. A ripple of smile appeared in his deep, dark eyes, with a hint of cunning and sinisterness.
Su Yang was stunned for a moment, and knew that he couldn't think of any good way.
"What? Are you unhappy?" Seeing that she was unmoved, Rong Zhan frowned and asked back unhappily.
As soon as she finished speaking, Su Yang approached him, tiptoed slightly on her high heels, put her hands on his chest, and her red lips were imprinted on his handsome and clear features like a dragonfly touching the water.
As dusk gradually falls, the orange sky slowly turns into deep crimson purple and pink, accompanied by the evening breeze blowing in from the mountain forests, blowing away the summer heat and bringing a slight coolness.
This light kiss inexplicably made his heart tremble slightly, and the corners of his lips unconsciously raised slightly. He threw away the carrot in his hand, and put his arms around her slender waist, turning from passive to active, and taking away the breath from her red lips.
Su Yang was stunned for a moment, the light in his eyes dimmed slightly, and he slowly lowered his eyelids.
"tiu——"
