He had just arrived at someone else's place and was already criticizing the hostess. He wondered if he would be kicked out.
Clearly, this mansion had a plethora of problems. Zhou Yuanyuan had only been here for less than ten minutes, but she had already noticed a lot of irregularities. Before she could fully grasp Qian Yuxin's true intentions, she didn't want to reveal them and scare Yu Xiaohan.
Zhou Yuanyuan sympathized with Xiao Han. If she'd initially envied him for his good fortune, her sympathy was even greater now. Where in the world did inexplicable love exist? A jewelry tycoon's only daughter fell for a poor boy with nothing? Such a thing could only be found in legends. Clearly, the poor boy wasn't completely without; he possessed something both the jewelry tycoon and his daughter coveted.
With Yu Xiaohan's example in mind, Zhou Yuanyuan felt that she should believe in the saying "If someone shows kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief."
It was unknown what evil deeds Yu Xiaohan's father-in-law had done to deserve such a vicious curse. Many of the secrets in this house existed to break the Qian family's curse. There were so many secrets in this house, and Qian Yuxin had many secrets too. Zhou Yuanyuan really didn't know how to explain this to Yu Xiaohan.
Thinking that she had already waded through the mud this time, Zhou Yuanyuan sighed. Anyway, she came to the Yu family just to solve the problem of Yu Xiaohan's declining luck. Other people and other things were not within her business scope.
After Zhou Yuanyuan figured it out, she looked at the roof of the villa with a serious expression, then looked down at the blue bricks under her feet. After she had made up her mind, she walked a few steps to the left and came to the big banyan tree in the middle of the courtyard.
Yu Xiaohan was bewildered by Zhou Yuanyuan's series of actions. He couldn't understand why Zhou Yuanyuan, after looking up at the sky and then down at the ground, had a smile on her face, then turned solemn. Was there something wrong with his roof or the blue brick floor? Yu Xiaohan wondered.
Zhou Yuanyuan ignored Yu Xiaohan's changing expression. At this moment, she took two or three steps and walked to the banyan tree which was more than ten meters high and looked up.
The banyan tree is very dense, with many roots on the trunk, which hang down from the trunk in strands.
This kind of banyan tree has strong vitality. If the roots on the trunk are not trimmed, they will hang down to the ground, then penetrate into the soil and grow into a new banyan tree.
The banyan tree at Yu Xiaohan's house was unlike any other. Not a single root reached the ground. In the entire yard, aside from this lush, large banyan tree, there were no other trees nearby. Not even a single sapling could be seen poking out from its roots. It was obvious that the tree was regularly pruned. The longest rhizome on the trunk was only about ten centimeters long, and a bit of milky white sap could be seen on the broken ends.
Beneath the banyan tree, a circle of white jade flower pots held small, evergreen pine trees, shaped into various bonsai. One bonsai resembled a small dragon winding upward, its mouth wide open, as if shouting or perhaps asking for food.
Zhou Yuanyuan walked around the banyan tree and counted the bonsai under the tree. There were exactly twelve pots.
"Does Miss Yuanyuan like gardening? My former gardener was a famous gardening master in the Philippines.

"Chaye was hired by my dad at a great expense. Unfortunately, he left after my dad passed away a few years ago." Yu Xiaohan and his wife followed Zhou Yuanyuan's gaze. Seeing her stop by the dragon-shaped bonsai, Qian Yuxin quickly came over to explain.
"Cha Ye is not an ordinary person, right? Ms. Qian?" Zhou Yuanyuan asked casually.
"Nonsense, Uncle Chaye is just an ordinary gardener." Qian Yuxin's face changed when she heard Zhou Yuanyuan say that.
Zhou Yuanyuan heard the anger in Qian Yuxin's tone and looked up at her. As Zhou Yuanyuan expected, Qian Yuxin's face was no longer as warm as it had been at the beginning. Seeing Zhou Yuanyuan's gaze in her direction, Qian Yuxin's mouth curled up mechanically, her eyes cold.
Zhou Yuanyuan smiled sweetly at Qian Yuxin and whispered into her ear, "Ms. Qian, what kind of person is Cha Ye? The innocent will be innocent. You don't have to worry."
After hearing what Zhou Yuanyuan said, Qian Yuxin's face turned purple. If Zhou Yuanyuan was not a guest invited by Yu Xiaohan personally, Qian Yuxin might have chased her away.
"Yuxin, what's wrong?" Yu Xiaohan realized that there seemed to be some disagreement between the two women and hurried over to smooth things over. He was a grown man and it was difficult for him to get too close to Zhou Yuanyuan. Zhou Yuanyuan had just spoken to Qian Yuxin in a low voice. Yu Xiaohan didn't understand why his wife's face turned so ugly after Zhou Yuanyuan said that.
"Grandpa Yu, Grandma Qian and I said your bonsai is really beautiful. When I go back to Kyoto, I will bring one to you.
