Chapter 32: Chapter 030 The Change of the Girl
In front of the guzheng, the qipao-clad woman with delicate makeup had already stopped performing.
The group of four women and one man, who had eaten for a whole half-hour, finally put down their chopsticks and bowls.
However, even though the girls had stopped worrying about their weight and fat and had let themselves enjoy the feast, most of the exquisite dishes remained uneaten on the table.
"Ah, this is truly like the life of a deity; I would have no regrets dying after today!"
Tao Yun, whose white shirt was now tight against her belly due to overeating, stretched lazily and with little concern for image. The moment she had walked into the dining room without any hope, Tao Yun became the most carefree among the girls, the one who let go the most.
"To say such a thing, aren't you afraid your parents will come after you to set you straight? What a foodie!"
Without passing through her brain, and already used to contradicting Tao Yun, Song Xiaoxi immediately fired back.
"Hmph, I'd like to know who snatched half of my caviar just now. I won't quibble with you. By the way, Brother Chu, we've just finished eating and would like to take a walk. Can we take a tour of your house?"
This minor request naturally gave Chu Mo no reason to refuse. He waved to the butler, Danny, at his side and said with a smile:
"Please take good care of our guests, show them around, and if they get tired, you can arrange for them to rest in the guest rooms. If you girls like, you can have a SPA on the upper floor, we have special services for that!"
As Chu Mo's words ended, the girls' eyes immediately lit up with excitement, and the considerate Danny promptly led the way.
As the excited girls left the dining room, Chu Mo, who was also experiencing such a lavish meal for the first time, stretched out vigorously, finally feeling grounded.
In the past few days, staying in the villa and continuously being influenced by excitement and inexplicable emotions, Chu Mo had been in a daze, even suffering from insomnia for two nights straight. It wasn't until he had visited the community that he began to settle down.
And today, hosting the girls, the change in his mindset, along with the lively atmosphere, allowed Chu Mo to finally adapt to the environment.
Not until this moment did Chu Mo truly feel the self-consciousness of being the villa's owner.
His gaze swept over the four maids standing around with bowed heads, each quietly scoring over eighty points in appearance. Although they might not be national beauties, they were certainly a pleasant sight. Thinking that no matter what he did from now on, he would be served by maids, his mood became even more content.
Gently rising from his seat, his eyes glanced over the qipao-clad woman in the corner, he paused and, recalling her exquisite guzheng performance, said softly:
"You've worked hard just now! What's your name?"
Seemingly not expecting such politeness from the master of the villa, the elegantly rising qipao-clad woman bowed slightly, her voice melodic as she said:
"My surname is Wu, and it's an honor to have pleased you!"
Chu Mo hadn't noticed before, but now, looking carefully, he realized the woman with the delicate features wasn't really old—probably about the same age as Tao Yun and Chu Xiner. Her outstanding temperament often made people overlook her age.
"Are you a professional guzheng player hired here?"
Chu Mo struck up a casual conversation. The girl, with a faint jasmine fragrance coming off of her, shook her head and said:
"No, Mr. Chu, I am a junior at the conservatory of music. Every weekend, I perform at nearby restaurants or private clubs to gain stage experience. If you're interested, I can visit again next weekend!"
Chu Mo nodded and, without saying much else, turned to instruct a maid beside him:
"Please have the kitchen prepare a lunch for Miss Wu. Miss Wu, it's already past lunchtime, so please feel free to have whatever you like here. Once you've finished your meal, I'll have someone send you back."
With a nod to the lady, and as the qipao-clad woman bowed in thanks, Chu Mo left the dining room.
The girls had clearly finished touring the first floor, and as they ascended the spiral staircase to the second floor, their figures were still nowhere to be seen. It seemed that the bedrooms on the second floor were not their goal. Indeed, upon reaching the third floor, even before catching sight of them, a stream of cheerful laughter could already be heard from afar.
Each level of the third floor spanned eight hundred square meters, making it several times more luxurious than the previously mentioned Villa No. 8. Here, there was not only a gym and a swimming pool, but even a sixty-square-meter family theater and a massive seventy-square-meter library, along with a wellness room for the owner to relax and recuperate in.
The master bedroom was one hundred and fifty square meters, larger than the average family's entire home. The five by five-meter bed within the bedroom was custom-made.
Opulent was no longer sufficient to describe this master bedroom. The elaborate chandelier on the ceiling shone dazzlingly bright, accentuated by the round tray ceiling.
The blue wallpaper and beige curtains complemented each other beautifully, and while the furniture followed the wooden style of the living room, the overall design was simplified, avoiding excessive complexity.
As Chu Mo went upstairs, he just caught sight of Tao Yun taking selfies with her cellphone, continuously shooting different angles of her surroundings. Seeing Chu Mo at the staircase, the girl whose eyes flashed with joy immediately pleaded:
"Chu Brother, can we take a photo together? Don't worry, I'll make sure you look really nice!"
Chu Mo, who had just climbed the stairs, shook his head slightly, chuckling as he replied:
"I'm not photogenic, I get all stiff when others take pictures of me. Just have fun by yourself!"
"Oh~" The young-faced girl sounded somewhat disappointed and hesitated for a moment before cautiously asking:
"That, Yuan Yuan just said taking pictures in the bedroom is too intrusive to privacy, but I really like that big bed. Chu Brother, can I take a few photos in the bedroom?"
Hearing this, Chu Mo, who felt indifferent, waved his hand and said:
"I don't have that many rules, and besides, you and Xiner are roommates. You ought to look out for each other. If Xiner knew I didn't let you take photos, she would certainly be upset!"
A smile flickered in the corner of Chu Mo's eyes as the girl opposite him took on a rare serious expression. Biting her lip lightly, with a complicated look, Tao Yun suddenly sighed:
"I'm really envious of that girl Xiner. How nice would it be if I had a brother who doted on me like that."
After a moment of reflection, Tao Yun's eyes turned resolute as she earnestly said:
"Chu Brother, don't worry, I know what to do!
From now on, Xiner and I will be the best of sisters. If anyone dares to bully Xiner, I'll knock their teeth out!"
Seeing that she had understood his intentions, Chu Mo didn't waste more words, waving his hand lightly, and the girl then happily headed to the bedroom!
Sounds came from the home theater across the way. As he approached and reached the doorway, he saw the butler, Danny, introducing various pieces of equipment to the three girls.
The crimson sofas were in sharp contrast to the green wallpaper, yet they didn't clash. The white and blue floor tiles brightened the entire sensory experience, making the audiovisual room seem not so dark.
Three vibrant and youthful girls gathered together, and what touched Chu Mo slightly was that, at this moment, Chu Xiner stood between the two girls.
Dressed in a Hermès suit, with her long hair draped over her shoulders, Song Xiaoxi's eyes would crinkle into crescents when she laughed. She had both her hands on Chu Xiner's left arm, whispering something that occasionally caused Xin'er to laugh crisply from the heart.
With her delicate, exquisite facial features and long, straight legs, Zhou Yuanyuan, the ice beauty, seemed to have shelved her usual chill, standing quietly at Xin'er's right side, her expression serene yet lacking the previous air of aloofness.
Sensing Chu Mo's arrival, the beauty from the School of Engineering, who possesses a ninety-seven percent rating in attractiveness, unexpectedly looked back, her bright eyes, like a starlit sky, sweeping lightly across Chu Mo's face…
In her gaze lay a radiance too dazzling to look directly at.
