...
Maple Waterfront is a large villa area. In the past, the old man, Mu Nanxun, and Mu Wenya all lived in one villa. Now that Mu Nanxun and Yi Yi are married, they have moved out of the original villa and are living in another villa in Maple Waterfront.
Although they're not in the same villa, they're close by, only a few minutes' walk apart. Things are pretty much the same as before.
Since there is no place for Mao Mao to stay in the new courtyard yet, Mao Mao is still living with the old man and the others.
When Yi Yi had nothing to do, she would go to pay her respects to the old man, chat with Mu Wenya, or play with Mao Mao for a while. Everything seemed to remain largely unchanged.
That day, Yi slept in late, and when she woke up, the sun was already high in the sky. She quickly washed up, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.
Mu Nanxun always gets up early, even though he's newly married.
"Greetings, Madam." The servants greeted her in unison, and Yi Yi responded with a sweet smile.
When they got their marriage certificate, she didn't quite feel like she had become Mu Nanxun's wife. She only thought of the title "Young Madam" as a change in how people addressed her.
Now, she and Mu Nanxun held a grand wedding, announcing to the world that they were husband and wife. And Yi Yi finally truly realized that she was no longer just an independent individual. She and Mu Nanxun had formed a new entity. She depended on him, and he depended on her.
This feeling is a mix of tension, excitement, anticipation, and a touch of longing for the future.
She pursed her lips slightly, and a smile couldn't help but spill out from the corners of her mouth.
Mu Nanxun sat upright at the dining table, his back ramrod straight, holding a copy of today's morning newspaper, engrossed in reading it leisurely. His short, dark hair, high-bridged nose, and the warm sunlight casting dappled shadows on him. The yellow orchids in front of him were in full bloom… everything was like a painting.
Yi Yi circled around behind him, stealthily approaching him, intending to scare him.
"Get up."
As soon as he walked behind her, Mu Nanxun seemed to have eyes in the back of his head, speaking softly with a smile on his lips.
Yi Yi deflated and sat down next to him. "How did you know it was me? When did you see me?"
Mu Nanxun put down the newspaper in his hand, turned around and hugged her, resting his chin on the top of her head and stroking it.
"No need to look, I have ears to hear."
Okay, so I just heard her footsteps. I was careless.
Yi Yi lifted her head from Mu Nanxun's arms, pouted, and looked pitiful, "I'm hungry."
Mu Nanxun affectionately pinched her nose. "I know, breakfast is ready. I haven't eaten yet either. I'll eat with you. Aunt Zhang, you can serve the dishes now."
Because the old man and Mu Wenya were used to being taken care of by Aunt Li, Mu Nanxun and his family did not take Aunt Li with them after they moved out. Instead, they hired a new nanny, Aunt Zhang.
Aunt Zhang is quick and efficient, and her cooking skills are no less than Li Ma's.
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice responded from the kitchen, "Yes, young master, young mistress, it will be ready soon."
Immediately afterwards, a row of servants came out of the kitchen carrying all sorts of fragrant breakfasts.
"ah--"
The maid walking in the middle suddenly screamed, and the thing she was carrying fell to the ground and shattered into pieces. The scream startled the other maids, who all stopped and turned to look.
