The cross-country truck drove out for a long time until the sound of explosions slowly disappeared.

“What’s your name?” Wei Zimu looked at Xia Yu, who was driving beside him.

“Xia Yu.” Xia Yu’s young face had a look of maturity, as he grew up gradually.

Wei Zimu had expected it, as he said, “You’re Xia Wanyuan’s younger brother?”

Xia Yu stepped on the accelerator and looked at Wei Zimu. “You know my sister?”

“Mm, I do.” Wei Zimu nodded. “Your sister treats you quite well, right?”

“Of course.” Speaking of Xia Wanyuan, Xia Yu raised an eyebrow. “My sister treats me the best.”

“That’s good.” Wei Zimu smiled warmly. “Thank you for saving me. Put me down at the intersection in front. I still have something on.”

“It’s not safe here.” Xia Yu looked at the scholarly Wei Zimu. “With your physique, why are you staying in this godforsaken place?”

“I have something on. Just put me down. Please take this child out.”

“Alright.” Xia Yu had a mission. Since the person in front of him insisted, he did not persuade him further and put Wei Zimu down at the intersection.

Xia Yu drove the child away. When the SUV disappeared at the end of the road, a few helicopters flew out from the direction they had just escaped.

“Please come back with us.” A few strong soldiers with guns alighted from the helicopter.

“Got it.” Wei Zimu looked at the people in front of him in disgust. Even though he was not close, he could smell the thick scent of blood on these people.

The helicopter carried Wei Zimu and quickly disappeared into the sky.

The city in the distance had already been blown up by streams of light. The ground was filled with ruins and smoke rose, covering the land with a hazy veil of darkness like a layer of despair that would never fall.

The manor was brightly lit.

Ever since Jun Shiling and Xia Wanyuan communicated their intentions, no one else in the main building served them except when necessary.

Firstly, Uncle Wang thought that the two of them were passionate and needed some private space. Secondly, the sweet atmosphere between the two of them was really unbearable for an old man like him, so he simply brought the others and left the main building.

“I can eat it myself.”

Seeing that Jun Shiling wanted to hug her even when she was peeling prawns, Xia Wanyuan felt that the two of them were really too sticky. She struggled to get up.

“Are you sure you can?” Jun Shiling glanced at Xia Wanyuan suspiciously.

“Why not?” Xia Wanyuan said and was about to go down when she pulled on something. She gasped and fell back onto Jun Shiling.

A chuckle came from above her head.

Xia Wanyuan could not help but punch Jun Shiling. “Still smiling? It’s all because of you, liar.”

Every time, he would say it was the last time. Every time, he would go back on his word.

“Isn’t it because the clothes you bought online were too alluring? Madam, you seduced me very successfully this time!”

“I already said that I didn’t buy that. An Rao bought it,” Xia Wanyuan tried her best to clarify.

“Mm, I believe you.” Jun Shiling nodded seriously, but there was a mischievous smile in his eyes.

Xia Wanyuan did not want to continue with this question. “Why aren’t you done peeling? I’m hungry. You’re so slow.”

“Alright, alright, here.” Seeing that Xia Wanyuan had lost her temper, not only was Jun Shiling not angry, but he also enjoyed it very much. He hurriedly brought the prawn meat in his hand to her mouth.

God knew how much effort he had used to make Xia Wanyuan lose her cool.

He had soaked in countless gentleness, which made Xia Wanyuan have the temperament of a little girl. And in the world, he was the only one who could see such a “pampered” Xia Wanyuan.

After dinner, Jun Shiling led the way out of the house. The fragrance of lotus flowers wafted in the air.

With the light in the garden, Xia Wanyuan saw endless lotus leaves and lotus flowers in front of her. Under the light of the night, they dazzled with a faint luster.

“Why are there so many lotus flowers?”

“I wanted to bring you here in the morning.” Jun Shiling placed Xia Wanyuan on the swing in the garden. “But you’ve been sleeping, so I didn’t call you. You’ll be able to see everything tomorrow morning. Do you like it?”

From the first time Xia Wanyuan moved into the manor and the way she looked at the flowers, Jun Shiling knew that she liked all kinds of beautiful flowers.

It was the time when the lotus flowers in midsummer bloomed. Although there was no large lake in the manor,

However, as the saying goes, money can make the devil go away. Jun Shiling got someone to raise lotus flowers in a high-concentrated flower pot and spent half a day filling the entire manor.

Xia Wanyuan took a deep breath. The fragrance of the lotus leaves wafted over, making her feel extremely good.

The lights in the main building were extinguished, and the lights in the garden were slowly dimmed. His eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, and he looked up at the sky filled with stars.

“Do you want to hear a story?” Jun Shiling hugged Xia Wanyuan from behind. The two of them sat on the swing and looked at the stars.

“Yes.” Xia Wanyuan nodded. Jun Shiling picked a mythical story and told it to Xia Wanyuan.

The next morning, Xia Wanyuan had not gone out to see what the lotus flowers in the courtyard looked like when she saw the picture on WeChat.

“F*ck!!! Is this your house?!! It clearly didn’t look like this when I left the day before yesterday!! Is this the world of rich big shots!!”

Early in the morning, the trending topic about “Lotus Manor” exploded with people who had woken up early. An Rao habitually scrolled through Weibo and saw a familiar scene.

If not for the fact that there were only a few luxurious renovations in Beijing, An Rao would not dare to believe that the manor that seemed to have grown out of the lotus sea on this picture was the one she had gone to a few days ago.

“…” Xia Wanyuan clicked on the photo and looked. The photographer should have been standing outside the manor.

From his point of view, the entire manor seemed to have risen from the water. A lotus sea supported it.

“Jun Shiling?” Xia Wanyuan called out tentatively as the bathroom door was pushed open.

Xia Wanyuan habitually opened her arms. Jun Shiling walked over and picked her up to put on her clothes.

“I’ll go and take a look.” Xia Wanyuan walked to the balcony.

It was dark last night and she could not see clearly. At this moment, she was standing on the balcony and looking down. The lotus leaves that connected to the sky were stretched like waves. Lotus flowers dotted them one after another. At first glance, it was impossible to think that this was a man-made lotus sea.

In her previous life, Xia Wanyuan had also liked lotus flowers, but the Xia Dynasty was located in the inland area of the north and did not grow these.

After she became a government official, there were also subsidiary countries in the south who sent some lotus flowers to the palace. Even if it was just a small vat, it was carefully nurtured and loved by her.

Now, in front of her was an entire patch of lotus flowers that looked like the sea. Xia Wanyuan sighed.

From her expression, Jun Shiling knew that Xia Wanyuan liked this gift very much.

Xia Wanyuan, who had seen countless rare treasures, was shocked by this scene, let alone the netizens.

Everyone was shocked by this godly extravagance. Furthermore, a set of photos of “Rose Manor” a long time ago had been dug out.

Everyone compared it.

Other than flowers, the other buildings were the same.

F*ck!!?Everyone was stunned.
