Even according to social etiquette, as a man, he should give the more comfortable back seat to Lu Jiayin.
But Lu Sinian, who was always polite, didn't move at all.
He did not follow the driver to pick up Lu Jiayin, nor did he plan to give the back seat to her. Instead, he was as steady as an old dog and continued to sit in the back seat and chat quietly with Su Xiaoli.
If he didn't move, Su Xiaoli couldn't move either.
No matter whether the person is an enemy or a friend, as long as he doesn't bully her grandmother, she doesn't care whether he is close to her or not.
Lu Jiayin finished smoking a cigarette before getting on the car. He had just flown back from Xiayi Island and was really feeling suffocated on the journey.
I don’t know what the damn old man is doing.
When he was old, he married an old lady again, and she was his principal wife in a formal ceremony! The whole family had to come back to support him. It was really strange.
Forget it, as long as the shares under my name don’t touch them, I can marry whoever I want.
Lu Jiayin rolled his eyes.
Seeing that Lu Sinian had no intention of giving up his seat for him, and there was a pretty girl sitting next to him, was he taking his girlfriend home?
Lu Jiayin thought with disdain and sat in the passenger seat.
Lu Sinian still had no interest in talking to her. He just said "Aunt" and then closed his mouth tightly.
There was absolutely no intention of introducing Su Xiaoli to her.
Lu Jiayin glanced at the two people in the back seat. One had a cold expression, and the other was calm and self-possessed. She felt that they were boring, so she ignored them awkwardly.
Fortunately, Hong Kong Island is not big, and the way back to the Lu family’s old house is not too far.
The driver drove the car halfway up the mountain. Seeing that the driver had already entered the private road of Lu's residence, Lu Jiayin snorted, "I'm not going back to the old house."
The driver glanced at Lu Sinian cautiously in the rearview mirror.
Seeing that he neither agreed nor objected, she sent Lu Sinian and Su Xiaoli home, and then quickly took Lu Jiayin away.
Su Xiaoli looked at this courtyard villa that was "surrounded by mountains and gathered energy". Victoria Harbour was not far away, and it was grand and spectacular.
Mr. Lu and Grandma were waiting for her with smiles on their faces on the steps not far away.
"grandmother!"
Su Xiaoli didn't care about her luggage and ran towards Grandma Su like a little swallow. She didn't even look up and called Grandpa Lu "Grandpa" until she lingered in Grandma Su's arms for a few seconds.
She had been in this world for a year, and this was the first time she had been separated from Grandma Su for such a long time. She missed her very much.
Old Master Lu looked at the new Mrs. Lu beside him, then looked at Su Xiaoli and Lu Sinian. This was a family, complete and together.
"I heard from Si Nian that you did very well in the exam." Grandpa Lu said with a smile.
"Well, I performed normally." Su Xiaoli blinked.
Mr. Lu laughed, and Su Xiaoli walked forward holding Grandma Su's arm.
Lu Sinian handed the two people's luggage to the servant and asked, "Is the young lady's room ready?"
The servant quickly replied, "Zheng Bo had it cleaned a few days ago. It's in the room closest to the light well in the corridor on the third floor."
Lu Sinian nodded.
The room faces the sun and the sea, and is right next to mine.
Butler Zheng Bo had already been standing respectfully on the first floor waiting. When he saw the few people coming in, he hurried forward and said, "Young Miss."
The tone was extremely respectful.
His Mandarin is a little stiff, so he must have not studied it for long.
Mr. Lu looked at Su Xiaoli with a smile and said, "This is the butler Zheng Bo. If you have any questions, just go to him."
"Hello, Uncle Zheng, I'm Su Xiaoli." Su Xiaoli nodded and extended her hand to shake hands with Uncle Zheng.
Zheng Bo stood there in a daze.
Mr. Lu laughed and said to Zheng Bo: "This is the etiquette of the mainland. You should learn it in the future."
Only then did Zheng Bo dare to stretch out his hand and gently shake hands with Su Xiaoli.
Seeing that the usually steady Zheng Bo was a little flustered, Lu Sinian turned to Su Xiaoli and said with a smile, "Let Zheng Bo get used to it. I'll show you the room first."
Su Xiaoli glanced at Grandma Su. Grandma Su naturally liked the new grandson to be close to her biological granddaughter.
From now on, my granddaughter will be alone in the capital. Although Gu Feihan is with her, Lu Sinian is there to support her. If the two of them have a quarrel, Xiaoli will not be bullied.
As for which one, Gu Feihan or Lu Sinian, would be with her granddaughter in the end, she accepted Mr. Lu's opinion: "Let the children grow up slowly on their own."
"Go ahead, follow Si Nian to take a look." Grandma Su seemed to have adapted to life in the Lu residence, and her tone was very natural.
Seeing that her grandmother looked peaceful and happy, Su Xiaoli finally breathed a sigh of relief.
At first she thought her grandmother was used to living in northern Ji and would miss home after coming here. Now it seems that her grandfather really takes good care of her grandmother.
She nodded to the two old people and followed Lu Sinian to the third floor.
"The previous room was mine, this one is yours." Lu Sinian pushed open the door.
The blue sky and the blue sea outside the long window seemed to leap into the house without any obstruction.
There was a large kapok tree with many red flowers on it, and several ivy plants climbed along the wall to the eaves outside, dropping a few leaves vertically.
I just felt relaxed and happy after watching it.
Su Xiaoli looked over and saw that the floor was smooth and bright, with a hand-painted lily every few tiles.
Every piece of furniture is exquisite, noble and appropriate, showing good taste everywhere, and it is pleasing to the eye and comfortable.
There was a large vase of white lilies on the coffee table.
"It's most comfortable to sit here and watch the sea. Grandpa and I asked for this room before, but he didn't agree." Lu Sinian sat on the sofa by the window and pretended to be jealous: "I didn't expect it was reserved for you."
Su Xiaoli's eyes curved and she smiled, "I didn't even know Grandpa at that time."
Lu Sinian laughed along with her.
"I'll take you to the Guangjing Terrace."
"Light well terrace?" Su Xiaoli was stunned.
"Come with me." Lu Sinian seemed to have returned to his childhood.
When he was a child and didn’t know much about the world, a cute little friend came to his house. He wanted to take her around the house and play with her favorite toys.
The light from the stairs leads to the sea. It is just a few steps out of Su Xiaoli's room.
The afternoon sun shines into the corridor through the window, and everything is just right.
The unique design makes going up and down the stairs a pure enjoyment. The light well is like a small tower, which is the most prominent corner of Lu's house.
The light well terrace is not too big, with a large bean bag sofa on the side. Standing on the terrace, it feels like another world as far as the eye can see.
The feeling of comfort cannot be described in words.
Su Xiaoli faced the gentle sea breeze, closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
Lu Sinian smelled the fragrance of the girl's hair blown by the sea breeze, and he had never felt so relaxed and happy.
He introduced his home to Su Xiaoli one by one, and every time he went to a place, he told a story about an embarrassing thing that happened there when he was a child.
Su Xiaoli listened with a smile.
I didn't expect that Lu Sinian was also a naughty child like Gu Feihan when he was young, climbing up and down and doing all kinds of things.
I don't know how he became such a well-mannered brother.
"Rest in your room for a while. I'll ask you to come down for dinner in the evening."
"Yeah." Su Xiaoli responded casually.
"In the evening,...some people will come to our house..." Lu Sinian was hesitant to speak.
