Xiao Wujie didn't react much, but Lu Zhufeng, standing to the side, was already dazzled by what he saw, thinking to himself:
The lives of the rich are truly different. They can simply steal a painting from the wall and live a life of ease, never having to worry about food or drink again!
Even if you gave him the courage, he wouldn't dare.
Because Chu Liyue prefers quiet, there are not many people in the entire manor except for a few necessary servants.
At this moment, there was no one else in the large living room except for them. Although the heating was on, the room was still a bit chilly because it was empty.
Xiao Wujie couldn't help but shrink back and cough lightly a few times while covering his mouth.
Seeing this, Chu Liyue frowned slightly and instructed Ai Ruoman beside her:
"Turn the temperature up a bit more from now on."
Before Ai Ruoman could respond, she pulled Xiao Wujie to sit down on the luxurious sofa and personally poured a cup of hot water for him.
"Sweetie, drink some hot water."
Xiao Wujie didn't stand on ceremony and drank a few sips from her hand. However, he drank too quickly and choked, coughing violently.
Seeing this, Chu Liyue quickly put down her water glass, pulled him into her arms, and gently patted his back to help him catch his breath.
But where she couldn't see, a hint of a smile flashed in Xiao Wujie's eyes.
Xiao Wujie coughed for a long time before calming down. He seemed to be exhausted. His chest rose and fell slightly as he leaned on Chu Liyue's shoulder. His eyes were filled with tears. He looked sickly and weak, which made people feel sorry for him.
Chu Liyue gently patted his back while patiently instructing him:
"Slow down, why are you drinking so fast!"
"It's getting cold, so wear more clothes."
"Don't refuse to wear clothes just because you want to look pretty."
Ai Ruoman, who was standing nearby, was deeply moved by this.
It's truly a rare sight to see such a ruthless and taciturn young lady speak so much at once.
In her memory, the young lady was exceptionally capable and aloof. The cruel environment and experiences she had endured had built high walls around her heart, and her own abilities made her invincible in everything she did.
She felt that the young lady was like a queen of destiny, sitting high on a cloud, looking down on the world, all-powerful, but there weren't many things that could concern her.
Apart from the young master Xiao in front of us.
She had never seen her so gentle and patient with anyone before.
Listening to the beautiful woman's soft whispers in his ear, her breath as fragrant as orchids, Xiao Wujie quite enjoyed the feeling. However, due to shortness of breath after coughing, he was somewhat unable to speak and could only nod his head lightly.
Seeing his listless expression, Chu Liyue didn't say much and quickly changed the subject:
"From now on, this will be A-Jie's home in the capital."
"Does A-Jie like it here?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wujie raised his head and looked at Chu Liyue, his eyes seemingly filled with dazzling starlight, and chuckled softly:
"I love wherever my sister is!"
