The Song Mansion was completed in March five years ago, taking a total of four months.
It was actually at the beginning of December of the previous year that Song Yansheng had already begun to establish this residence, and the preparation for his intent to build it dates back even further.
At that time, Shi Nuan had not yet separated from Shen Zui, and with Song Yichuan, she was still just friends.
The ensuing months were full of changes, including her car accident and engagement to Song Yichuan, which were beyond her expectations.
But no matter what, at that time she had no connection with Song Yansheng, and the original owner of this residence was indeed someone else.
Song Yansheng did indeed have a woman he wished to marry, at least one he cherished in his heart and desired to wed.
This woman was well protected by Song Yansheng, so much so that even the people around him were not very clear about her identity.
However, due to some reason, the two did not end up together, and so five years later today, Song Yansheng married her, Shi Nuan, as his wife!
She did not wish to pry into Song Yansheng’s secrets, but the woman’s identity indeed made Shi Nuan curious, very curious!
"Hey, little sister-in-law, look, Brother Yu is peeking at us!"
Just then, Ye Mingmei’s bright voice interrupted Shi Nuan’s thoughts.
Shi Nuan was startled, led by Ye Mingmei to look in a direction.
Not far in the main building, on the second-floor balcony, a man in a white shirt stood there, his posture tall and elegant.
The man held a teacup in his hand, drinking tea, the sunset glow spilling over him, enhancing his extraordinary grace, with unmatched male beauty.
Very... heart-stirring!
Shi Nuan’s eyes showed a moment of daze.
She had to admit, this man named Song Yansheng was flawless in both appearance and demeanor.
But she believed that the quickening of her heartbeat was due to human nature’s love of beauty, nothing else.
Shi Nuan could restrain her emotions, but Ye Mingmei could not.
She crossed her arms and "tsk tsk"ed twice, saying, "Brother Yu is really good-looking, much better than movie stars. If he didn’t always have a cold face, he would have gotten married long ago, too handsome!"
Shi Nuan coughed, turning her gaze away, saying, "Let’s... let’s go over there for a walk!"
Knowing that Song Yansheng was watching them from afar, she felt embarrassed and thought it best to walk further away!

The man on the second-floor balcony watched as the two young girls walked away, especially as Shi Nuan looked at him from afar and then lowered her head.
Not sure if she was shy or simply afraid to see him!
But on second thought, the shyness was probably more significant...
With a faint smile, being shy indicated that deep down she had never truly considered him an elder.
Rather, she considered him a man...
She probably hasn’t realized this part herself!
After finishing the tea in his hand, he stood for a while before turning back inside.
Walking to the computer, he saw a new email had arrived.
He put down the cup and moved his fingers to open the email.
The email was simple, containing only one sentence: The Lishui Project will be tendered on the 6th of next month, what do you plan to do?
Song Yansheng’s dark eyes quietly observed this email, a trace of profound meaning flashing across his expression.
At nearly six o’clock, Aunt Hui asked the servant to call Shi Nuan and Ye Mingmei back for dinner from the courtyard.
Ye Mingmei was excited beyond measure at the mention of dinner, chirping as she asked the servant about the dishes being prepared that evening.
Shi Nuan, however, remained calm, as she was not at all hungry at the moment.
