This was not to shut Jian You up. The man’s passion made Jian You unable to cope as she dodled, only to receive an even more fervent kiss from Xuan Mohan.
“…”
Jian You didn’t even know when Xuan Mohan picked her up. By the time she managed to calm her breathing, the man was already carrying her towards a large iron gate. As they approached, the gate automatically opened…
She had seen this sprawling manor from the plane. From above, the entire panorama was laid out before her.
She hadn’t paid much attention then, but now it seemed this house, including the large area in front, belonged to Xuan Mohan. This man was truly at the pinnacle of wealth, only having money as a descriptor.
However, she thought, the women who liked him were probably drawn to his charm. He had the looks, the strength, and abilities that surpassed anyone else. Even starting from scratch, he could achieve heights unattainable by ordinary people.
It was hard not to like such a man who had fallen for her and was willing to wait for her even after her "past self" disappeared. Such a devoted man was truly hard to resist…
“If I really died…” Would you wait for me?
“Hiss~ What are you doing…”
Jian You didn’t expect that before she could finish speaking, the man had abruptly pinched her waist, not lightly either.
Xuan Mohan had stopped walking, frowning as he looked at the woman in his arms, his face filled with displeasure. “You’re not allowed to say such ominous words anymore!”
It wasn’t real, so why was he taking it so seriously?
Xuan Mohan was not joking at all; his expression was very serious. “I don’t want to lose you again…”
Jian You’s heart softened. She leaned against Xuan Mohan’s broad chest and softly agreed, “Mhm.”
Seeing her obedient and adorable demeanor, Xuan Mohan couldn’t help but lower his head and kiss her hair, wishing to place all the beauty in the world before her. “Do you like it here?”
This was one of his residences outside the city. He had initially been drawn to its tranquility, pleasant environment, and layout. However, he had commissioned renovations months ago, all for her comfort…
With this thought, Xuan Mohan’s gaze softened further as he looked down.
Jian You glanced around again. Everything was full of life; it was a cozy residence. “Mhm, it’s not bad here, much better than your old family estate…”
It wasn’t that she wanted to speak ill of others, but even she, a woman lacking in taste, appreciated the style here more.
Xuan Mohan corrected her indulgently, “It’s *our* place…” Compared to the people at the old estate, he cared more about her designation, and since she liked it…
“Shall we live here after we get married?”
Jian You looked up at the man with a speechless expression. This man was always talking about after marriage, drawing clear boundaries…
“It’s too far from here, and not close to the school, right?” It looked like a sparsely populated area.
Xuan Mohan nodded lightly. “This is the suburbs, about a two-hour drive from the city center. However… I meant, shall we live here alone after we get married? Someone will take care of the children.”
He just wanted to marry her as soon as possible, and then be together every day, living their own lives…
Jian You looked up at the man with an unreadable expression. “Aren’t you going to look after the children?”
She had no memory, yet she felt an inexplicable attachment to the children. This man was taking her out alone, and then he wanted to leave them behind to go play by himself? Jian You found it somewhat incomprehensible.
Xuan Mohan seemed to think he had no issues. “The children are grown up. We should have our own space.”
Grown up? Jian You suddenly realized Xuan Mohan's ability to lie with a straight face was quite high. Why didn’t he say he was still young?
Fearing she wouldn’t agree, Xuan Mohan continued to coax her gently. “We’re still young, of course, we should have our own marital life, right?”
Why did she feel there was more to Xuan Mohan’s words? She glanced in the direction Xuan Mohan was walking. Well…
“Um… I want to look around here some more…”
Seeing the somewhat flustered look on the woman in his arms, he lowered his head and whispered in her ear, “I’ll often bring you here to look around in the future. For now… you belong only to me.”
With that, Xuan Mohan, still carrying the soft, delicate person in one arm, opened the inner door. He then placed her down against his legs and strode directly towards… upstairs.
“…Xuan Mohan… put me down first. I… I’m a bit hungry, and… it’s still early…” She didn’t know why she was a little nervous…
Xuan Mohan seemed not to hear her plea, continuing to stride with his long legs. “You’re not hungry. I fed you on the plane, and I don’t think it’s very early. It’s just right, and you’ll have time to rest.”
She had eaten? She couldn’t quite remember… Had she… drunk water? She seemed to have… What else…
As Jian You racked her brain trying to recall, Xuan Mohan blocked all her subsequent words.
“Today is considered our wedding night. No matter what you want to say, you won’t be able to leave this room.”
Jian You glared resentfully at the man. Sometimes this man was quite charming, and sometimes he was so domineering that she wanted to hit him, but the key was that she couldn’t beat him…
Jian You deflated, which also eased her stiffened body. Xuan Mohan chuckled inwardly, his steps unhurried.
Jian You gazed out with a sense of resignation. Every time, this man seemed to have boundless energy. Her stamina was considered good, but in front of Xuan Mohan… they couldn't compare…
Moreover, she was becoming increasingly childlike in front of Xuan Mohan.
While they were talking, Xuan Mohan steadily carried Jian You around the curved staircase pillar to a door. He lowered his head and softly said in Jian You’s ear, “Open the door…”
The message conveyed by his gaze was that if she didn’t do as he wished, she would face the consequences…
Jian You gritted her teeth fiercely. Her hands, resting on Xuan Mohan’s waist, were itching…
“Hmm~ Can I interpret this as… my Madam Xuan is already impatient…”
Unsurprisingly, the small hand on his waist tightened its grip. Xuan Mohan chuckled softly, freeing one hand to open the door himself, expecting the little woman to help him. If she did, wouldn’t that be a wasted opportunity today?
Xuan Mohan walked directly towards the large bed and gently placed the woman, who was leaning against his chest, onto it. He looked down at the dazed woman and said softly, “Do you like this decoration?”
Jian You was still somewhat disoriented. She stiffly turned her head to look at the man without speaking. She hadn’t expected this man to be so thoughtful. Had he arranged everything?
From the moment she opened the door, she noticed the difference inside. With a slight turn of her gaze, she understood the special nature of this room.
Everything he did showed he had put a lot of thought into it. Outside, there was a training ground familiar to her, as well as a garden, pavilions, flowing water, and ornamental ponds. He had truly been considering her feelings, prioritizing her preferences.
Jian You didn't know that Xuan Mohan had long since changed his style, completely prioritizing his wife and children.
Not only had the villa in Repulse Bay been renovated, but he had also bought the adjacent one to turn it into a playground. He personally designed all the play facilities, not only for children’s amusement but also for intellectual stimulation, as he deeply understood that some children were exceptionally intelligent beyond their age, like… his and Qianqian’s child…
