"Do you patch of gardenias?" He asked in a calm breath, his tone gentle and warm.
Shi Nuan made a soft sound of agreement, her dark eyes quivering slightly, and said, "My mother liked them, so I like them..."
The man seemed to nod, his voice low and magnetic, "I like them too..."
There is always a reason for liking a certain flower. He planted so many, he must really like them!
A faint smile appeared on his handsome face as he looked at the gardenias, his dark eyes bright, with a hint of dreaminess.
His fair skin mixed with the soft light of the evening becoming excessively gentle and smooth, somewhat unreal.
He spoke, his voice light, "Because the woman I care about loved them very much..."
Shi Nuan was momentarily stunned, so that’s it...
Of course, Shi Nuan would not associate this woman with herself; this house started construction five years ago, and she didn’t know Song Yansheng five years ago...
It seems that Song Yansheng had an adored woman in his heart...
Five years ago, twenty-four-year-old Song Yansheng spent four months building this house, presumably to marry that woman!
But judging by the current situation, it seems it didn’t work out!
With a bit of a sigh, Shi Nuan said, "What a coincidence!"
What a coincidence, that woman, like her, loved gardenias!
In Song Yansheng’s distinctly handsome eyes, a flash of shimmering light passed by, and a bewitching smile played at the corner of his beautiful lips.
He said, "Yes, what a coincidence!"
Afterwards, neither of them went anywhere else, lingering for a moment in the gardenia field, before returning to the main house.
As soon as they entered, Aunt Hui came forward respectfully, "Sir, there was a call from the old lady just now, she wants you to call her back!"
Song Yansheng slightly furrowed his brows but kept his expression calm, gently opening his mouth, "Understood... you first escort the Lady back to her room!"
"The Lady" naturally referred to Shi Nuan!
Shi Nuan felt quite embarrassed, with the servants calling her "Lady" with a mix of flattery and convenience, what did it mean when he also addressed her this way?
After all, the two of them weren’t married yet!
But she didn’t bother to argue; there were some things she didn’t want to mention for now, she just wanted to return to her room quickly and unpack her belongings, especially her mother’s items and books, which needed to be properly arranged.
Aunt Hui acknowledged, calling out to Shi Nuan, "Lady, follow me!"
Shi Nuan nodded, finally letting go of the man’s hand that she had been holding, wondering if it was her illusion, for a moment her fingertips felt slightly cold.
As if a cold breeze softly swept by!
Shi Nuan politely said, "I’ll go upstairs first!"
The man gently nodded, replying, "Take your time!"
Shi Nuan didn’t delay any longer, turning to walk upstairs, with the man downstairs watching her until her figure disappeared from sight!
Turning around, Song Yansheng gestured at the servant, who quickly handed him his phone. Song Yansheng dialed the number of the old house while walking outside.
Soon, the call was answered, and the phone was transferred to Yu Yao’s hand.
On the other end of the line, Yu Yao softly called, "A Yu..."
Song Yansheng inserted one hand into his pocket, looking at the thick night of the Song Mansion, "Mom, it’s me. You called, is there something wrong?" freeweb\n(o)v.e\l.com
Yu Yao paused, and after a moment she said, "A Yu, I heard... you brought her to live at Song Mansion?"
Song Yansheng acknowledged, not denying it.
"But Xiao Chuan was just buried today..." Yu Yao’s voice carried a note of sorrow.
Song Yansheng said, "Mom, I’ve waited too long for this day..."
