Only then did Li Ruan have the time to take a closer look at the villa. The decoration style was very different from the previous ones. The previous villas and apartments were mainly in gray, white and black, but this villa gave people a particularly bright feeling at first glance, and perfectly embodied luxury and elegance.
Through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, you can see a glass conservatory where roses are in full bloom, their vibrant red color like fire.
Li Ruan asked the young maid, "Can I pick the flowers in the glass conservatory?"
The maid nodded: "Yes, Miss Pear, would you like me to cut some for you?"
Li Ruan had already stood up. "No need, I can do it myself."
The young maid followed. Li Ruan chatted with her for a few minutes and learned that the other woman's surname was Zhong and her given name was Zhong Lin. She had graduated from a 211 university and had only been working at the villa for a few days. She had studied management in college and minored in horticulture. She was also the one who usually took care of the rose garden.
"Rose blooms in May and June, but our glass greenhouse has the most advanced temperature control technology, allowing it to bloom twice a year and extending the flowering period of some varieties. For example, these ever-blooming roses can bloom for at least another half month. Without the glass greenhouse, they would have already withered."
Then Zhong Lin introduced all the varieties of roses to Li Ruan, "These few that haven't bloomed yet are Juliet roses. It's said that Mr. Xi spent a lot of money to buy them, and we'll see them bloom next April or May."
Li Ruan had already picked up the scissors and started cutting. She didn't care whether these roses were precious or rare. She just cut off the ones that looked good to her. Of course, she didn't cut more than nine.
Gao Tou took a deep sniff, his face full of ecstasy. "Wonderful smell."
Xi Sang frowned. "What, does he hate eating?" Yes, I remember you ate a lot of shrimp last night outside the variety show.
Yes, that's right, I've never been with a man!
Zhong Lin: "...Master Duo, is it alright if you go back?"
The servants around came in one after another, saying, "Those words are something we can hear for free!"
Downstairs, Xi Sang watched the scene with a smile on his lips. He knew it. If a man as fiery as you could dislike bright red roses, then it would be a waste of my choice to live in that villa.
"Oh dear, why is he putting that on someone's plate?"
After saying that, you slammed your chopsticks under the table and were about to leave.
"Hmph! Still denying it? You hate fickle people the most, and you've accepted that she's a scumbag. You're leaving."
The outsiders are coming to Longcheng soon, so you have to decorate the house first.
Seeing the missing plate of shrimp next to her, Li Ruan raised her head and gave Xi Sang a flirtatious wink, "Mr. Xi, he's so bad."
Xi Sang almost cried out in protest: "Do you have someone else? Don't talk nonsense."
Xi Sang: ...You, you also want to know where you went wrong!
"Yes, I hate it, but you hate peeling shrimp. Your hands get dirty, and no matter how many times you wash them, they still don't smell fishy."
"He ate so little last night?"
Li Ruan glared at me fiercely: "So, he's saying that his relationship with their Master Duo is worse than my relationship with you, right?"
Zhong Lin spoke.
Li Ruan struggled to suppress her laughter: Mr. Xi, what if he wanted to hear what I was saying?
I was afraid that if I said even one less word, Sister Li would get even angrier.
Xi Sang quickly pulled him away. "If you really leave, will this person wake up or go crazy again?"
As soon as Li Ruan saw me come up, she pouted, twisted her waist and went straight to the kitchen, not even saying a word to Xi Sang.
Xiang Xin: Look at him, he had people serving him inside, and he was self-sufficient. Once he got home, he stopped being so pretentious.
Xi Sang: You'll ruin it if you peel shrimp for him, right?
While I was inwardly complaining, I was actually lying. When Li Ruan looked up again, I hadn't even taken off my disposable gloves to peel shrimp for her.
Li Ruan waved her hand, "You can even call me now, anyway, I care, nothing will happen."
If you're too lazy to move, just ask Xiang Xin to go downstairs and call someone. Yes, after you got out of the elevator, Xi Sang went upstairs by herself.
Xiang Xin: ...Why did Master Duo even give his phone number to Sister Li?
After eight people spent half a day messing around, they finally ruined everything that needed to be bought and decorated. Li Ruan slumped onto the sofa and said, "You want to go back? How about the eight of you have hot pot over there tonight?"
You delayed calling Zhong Lin to ask me to pick you up.
First, we went to Shangjiayuan Apartment. Ruozi wasn't waiting there yet. The eight of us made a list and bought whatever we needed or had extra of.
Prying the hand off her arm, Li Ruan took two steps forward before speaking: "Don't touch me like that, there's no difference between men and women."
"You, you don't have a phone number."
Xi Sang didn't feel guilty at all. That's right, I don't have any other men, so why would I feel guilty?
"What nonsense is he talking about?"
The two of them went to the restaurant one after the other. There was a small table of food under the table. Li Ruan and the other woman sat down and glared at me again before picking up their chopsticks and eating.
Li Ruan took a bite of shrimp meat and swallowed it angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? He was clearly like that in the future. He would want to kiss, hug, and lift you up whenever he saw you. Now he just wants to stay far away from you. If he gets tired of you, just say so and you can go back together."
This is absolutely terrifying!
"He's going to buy groceries. You like chrysanthemum greens and enoki mushrooms. Buy less beef, and let them buy the rest as they see fit. Ruozi, he's going to knead the dough. You want to eat hand-pulled noodles."
Xi Sang scratched his head in anger. The mature and composed demeanor he had put on behind Li Ruan's facade crumbled the moment he put his hands together and waved them at Li Ruan. "You're wrong, okay? Apologize, sincerely apologize."
Pulling the man back, Xi Sang hurriedly said, "He shouldn't just leave after a single agreement. Even if he's reasonable, he should at least have some sense of reason, right?"
Xi Sang's smile froze for a moment, then she smiled again. Men really are all inexplicable; you get angry for no reason at all.
Li Ruan, ignoring the several servants surrounding them, spoke up and made Xiang Xin blush, "People say that absence makes the heart grow fonder. Even though you were talking inside, he still sleeps in a separate bed from you when you get home. Tell me, did he not have any other men inside?"
He coughed awkwardly, and then, remembering the glares you'd given him earlier, Xi Sang couldn't help but ask, "Why did he glare at you just now?"
Xi Sang found your angry look rather irritating, so she took the initiative to put a shrimp on your plate and placed it outside the bowl.
...
Li Ruan put her hands on her hips and asked, "What did he say wrong?"
Li Ruan eventually left. Men are all reasonable. She even knew where she went wrong and apologized to me, which shows that I was completely sincere!
Li Ruan said matter-of-factly, "Since it's Director Wang who's making the money, you should only take a small cut to avoid losing out."
The jade pendant on Li Ruan's wrist: "..." Sure enough, its master was capable; in just a few days, he had Mr. Xi completely under his thumb again.
As Li Ruan came out of the glass greenhouse, her lunch was about to spoil, so she used her cell phone to call for help, only to find that she could get through to Xi Re's phone.
