This is the first time in so many years I've seen him run so briskly.
Xu Musen shook his head with a smile, his gaze turning to Yao Mingyue beside him who also wore a smile.
Xu Musen looked around at the familiar surroundings and said with a smile, "The mysterious current owner of this villa wouldn't happen to be you and Aunt Liu, would it?"
Yao Mingyue turned her head, innocently blinking at Xu Musen, "What do you mean?"
"Don't play dumb. This house has been sold for so many years now, it's impossible for the new owner not to renovate, yet all these things have been preserved so well."
When Xu Musen entered, he had already guessed, it could only be Liu Rushuang who managed to do this.
Still, he was touched in his heart, not because of the villa's value, but because of the memories it contained.
Seeing Xu Musen's expression, Yao Mingyue stopped pretending to be dumb and proudly stood in front of him: "So, shouldn't you thank me properly?"
Xu Musen smiled, "How would you like me to thank you?"
Yao Mingyue reached out, gently lifted his chin, and whispered in his ear, "Why not give yourself to me to clear the debt?"
"It's not like that's impossible."
Xu Musen nodded earnestly, then also put on an innocent face: "But isn't the house owner Aunt Liu?"
"Are you looking for trouble? What's mine is mine, from now on you are my slave! Otherwise, I won't buy it for you!"
Yao Mingyue playfully hit him.
"Just wait until you marry me, then ask Aunt Liu to include this villa as part of the dowry."
Xu Musen said with a smile, Yao Mingyue's face flushed immediately, she covered his mouth and cautiously looked towards the second floor, afraid of being heard.
"Mom and Dad are here, stop talking nonsense... and keep dreaming, I haven't decided to marry you, being a stay-at-home son-in-law is more like it."
Yao Mingyue lightly stamped on his foot.
Xu Musen raised his head and caught her wrist, looking up towards a room on the second floor, the one that used to be his.
"Let's go take a look."
Upstairs, Xu Musen's room.
Pushing open the door, what came into view was a bunk bed - and why a bunk bed.
Because since childhood, Yao Mingyue's parents were busier than Xu Musen's parents on business, often travelling all over the country to meet clients.
Naturally, Yao Mingyue would often stay at Xu Musen's house.
Although there were many rooms, back then they were both small, Yao Mingyue was afraid of sleeping alone, so she slept in the same room as Xu Musen.
Before elementary school, the two even always slept in the same bed.
After entering elementary school, to avoid suspicion, a bunk bed was made.
After graduating from elementary school... this house was listed and sold.
Xu Musen sighed internally, everything in the room really hasn't changed, only his toys and such things had been taken away, making the room seem empty.
"This bed, how nostalgic~"
Yao Mingyue couldn't wait as she ran over, kicked off her shoes, and lied down on the bed stretching lazily.
The girl's slender body was like a cat, full of smooth, flowing beauty.
Xu Musen pointed at the upper bunk: "I remember your bed was the top one, right?"
"Both bunks were originally mine!"
Yao Mingyue playfully rolled around on the bed, then pulled Xu Musen to sit down too.
"You lie down too and see."
"Me? I don't think I fit."
Xu Musen looked at the bed.
"We used to fit, how come we can't now?"
"Because we've both grown up."
Xu Musen smiled, the double bed was indeed spacious, but after all, it was made for kids, both of them lying together now seemed a bit cramped.
Yao Mingyue first looked down at herself, still somewhat proudly sticking out her chest: "This beauty has indeed grown up, but some people..."
Yao Mingyue made a taunting gesture that would break anyone's defenses: "Tsk~"
"Make some room for me."
Xu Musen flicked her forehead, looking at the familiar bed, he also wanted to lie down and feel it again.
Saying so, Xu Musen lay down next to her, the bed was indeed a bit small, their shoulders pressed tightly together.
The scent of each other mingled together, the faint rose fragrance and elegant vegetation aroma, was very comforting.
Yao Mingyue turned around, hugged Xu Musen's arm, half her body resting lightly on his arm, looking at his profile, her tone gentle and nostalgic: "It's been a long time since we've lain …"
"Yeah, I still remember a certain crybaby who would always sneak down in the middle of the night to crawl into my bed."
Xu Musen, feeling the softness and fragrance from the girl's body, seemed to return to those childhood days.
Back then, both their parents were busy with business, and they would lie on this bunk bed at night.
Sometimes during stormy weather, when the villa felt eerily empty, Yao Mingyue would be scared, hugging her little pillow and climb down from the top bunk.
Her eyes red, sobbing, wanting to sleep with Xu Musen. Hearing the parents' instructions to avoid suspicion, but once Yao Mingyue started sobbing, standing there holding her little pillow, looking miserable.
In the end, Xu Musen could only soften his heart and let her lie with him.
"You're making things up!"
