Siheyuan: Big City, Small Love

After the two of them parted, He Lai drove directly back to his villa.

Butler Jin had already brought people to the door to welcome He.

He Lai looked and saw three more people.

"Master, these three people were arranged for you by Master Lou, saying that you don't have enough people around you right now. The man is called Ma Laoqi, and he's a driver. The two women are also there to serve you. If you don't want them, I'll send them away for you right now."

Butler Jin introduced.

He looked at them and said, "No need, keep it for now." Then he went into the house.

He Lai lay on the sofa, and soon, a servant brought him towels and hot water.

He Lai had just finished wiping his face when someone brought him a cup of hot tea.

This life is simply amazing! Just open your mouth and someone will bring something to your mouth!

"Old Jin, have my uncle Jiu and the others looked for me?"

He Lai lay down for a while and asked.

"Yes, Mr. Lou said that you can go to his place for dinner tonight."

Butler Jin said.

"Okay, I understand. I'll lie down for a while. Call me when it's time."

He Lai lay on the sofa and closed his eyes to rest.

"Yes." Butler Jin agreed and led his people out of the living room.

He Lai closed his eyes and began to organize the things in the space. After all, he had already planned to put these things in the warehouse.

This time, He Lai plans to take out all the useless supplies in the space.

Wild boar meat, fish, beef, venison, rabbit meat, bird meat, etc., all meats were cleared out, and all kinds of fruits and seafood were also cleared out.

Then there were some things like Ganoderma lucidum, deer antlers, animal furs, etc., all taken out.

Forget about the gold, silver and antiques, He Lai has to keep this thing.

Forget about the food, it’s worthless, so let’s leave it to the people of Beijing.

It took He Lai a while to finish it. Looking at the huge pile of supplies, He Lai estimated that there were at least thousands of tons.

"Young Master, Young Master." Butler Jin called out softly twice beside He Lai.

"Hmm? Is it time?" He Lai asked, opening his eyes.

"We're almost there. It'll take a long time. You should take a shower first," Butler Jin suggested.

"Okay." He Lai agreed and went to the bathroom to take a shower.

……

When He Lai arrived at the Lou family villa, he found Lou Xiao'e watering the flowers.

He Lai suddenly became interested and decided to tease this naive girl!

He Lai quietly came behind Lou Xiao'e and patted her right shoulder.

When she turned around, she was startled to see an unfamiliar person standing in front of her.

"Who are you and how did you get in?" Lou Xiao'e immediately distanced herself from He Lai and asked.

"I walked in, and it was your housekeeper who opened the door for me." He Lai said.

"Ah, then who are you looking for? Are you my brother's friend?" Lou Xiao'e looked at He Lai curiously and asked again.

After all, He Lai now looks like he is in his twenties, about the same age as her eldest brother, so she naturally regards him as her brother's friend.

"No, I'm here to see you." He Lai replied with a smile.

"Ah? Looking for me? Do you know me?" Lou Xiao'e said in surprise.

"Of course I know him. We were engaged when we were little."

He Lai said deliberately.

"You're talking nonsense! I don't even know you, what child marriage?" Lou Xiao'e said angrily immediately.

"Well, we were still young at that time, and your father and my father arranged the marriage. Later, my family moved to Gangcheng, but your family stayed in Sijiucheng, so we lost contact.

Uncle Lou invited me here today just to bring up this marriage."

He Lai talked nonsense in a serious manner.

"I don't believe it. I'm going to ask my dad right now!" After Lou Xiao'e said that, she immediately put down the watering can and rushed into the villa, wanting to find Lou Bancheng to ask for clarification.

He Lai smiled and shook his head behind him, then walked slowly into the house.

Several servants of the Lou family covered their mouths and laughed secretly. After all, they had all seen He Lai and knew that he was deceiving their young lady.

As soon as He Lai entered the living room, he saw Lou Xiao'e pestering Lou Bancheng and asking him what was going on!

Lou Bancheng naturally already knew from the housekeeper that it was He Lai who came and deliberately teased his daughter.

He did not expose the truth, but instead said that He Lai was the childhood sweetheart he had arranged for Lou Xiao'e.

This shocked Lou Xiao'e greatly. Just as she was thinking about how to make Lou Bancheng reject this marriage, He Lai came in.

"Uncle Lou, long time no see. It seems that life in Hong Kong is still good. He looks much better than in the city!"

He Lai smiled.

"Okay, you naughty boy, come and sit down." Lou Bancheng greeted with a smile.

"No, he can't sit. The Lou family doesn't welcome you. Get out."

Lou Xiao'e immediately ordered the man to leave. She couldn't marry someone she didn't know.

"Haha..." He Lai immediately covered his mouth and laughed.

"Ezi, how can you talk like that? Come and sit down!" Lou's mother immediately pulled Lou Xiao'e over, turned around and looked at He Lai, and said, "I'm sorry, Ezi has been spoiled by me, please sit down."

"Thank you, aunt." He Lai stopped laughing and sat on the sofa beside him.

"Hmph." Lou Xiao'e snorted coldly and sat next to Lou's mother.

"Well, may I ask who you are..."

Before Lou's mother finished her question, Lou Bancheng interrupted her: "Alright, stop asking. He is He Lai from Sijiu City."

“Uh…” “Ah…” Lou’s mother and Lou Xiao’e were stunned for a moment and looked at He Lai in disbelief.

"Sister Xiao'e, I'm sorry. It's inconvenient to come to Hong Kong City, so I used a mask. I was just joking with you just now."

He Lai explained with a smile.

"Hmph!" Lou Xiao'e instantly recognized He Lai's voice. She didn't expect that this guy was wearing a mask and came to Gangcheng.

"Oh, it's He Lai. You kid, I was telling you that Ezi had a childhood marriage, and I, as her mother, didn't even know about it."

Mother Lou also smiled and said.

"Well, I saw Sister Xiao'e watering the flowers alone and she was a little bored, so I just teased her."

He Lai explained.

"Who's bored? You're the one who's bored!" Lou Xiao'e glared at He Lai and said angrily.

"I was wrong, I was wrong. I apologize to Miss Lou and I bow to you."

He Lai stood up, bowed and said with a smile.

"Okay, okay, Xiao Laizi didn't mean any harm, Ezi, don't be angry." Lou Bancheng began to smooth things over.

"For my father's sake, I'll forgive you this time. By the way, He Lai, what are you doing in Gangcheng? Shouldn't you be in Guangcheng attending the Canton Fair right now?"

Lou Xiao'e asked curiously.

"Well, the Canton Fair is too boring. How about coming to Hong Kong City for a stroll? Sister Xiao'e, how about you take me for a stroll?"

He Lai joked.

"Okay, then I'll reluctantly take you for a walk. It's because you don't have any friends here!" Lou Xiao'e agreed with a smile.

Lou Bancheng also shook his head. This little guy He Lai really likes to play pranks.

Lou's mother didn't understand, but since her daughter was willing, she didn't stop her.

Lou Xiao'e began to tell He Lai about things in Hong Kong. One was willing to talk and the other was willing to listen. It was quite harmonious!

"What are you talking about? Are you so happy?"
