Over indulge

"Miss Lin, don't worry about it." Aunt Chen suddenly became nervous. Before Lin Jiayue could react, the other party had already squatted down, picked up the stone that had just tripped her, and muttered: "This group of people It’s really careless to do things, and there are still stones left in the aisle, I have to talk about it later.”

Eh……

In fact, Lin Jiayue felt that she was making a fuss out of a molehill, but she was fine.

However, Aunt Chen's approach made people feel that she was a very caring and warm person, and it reminded her of her grandmother who had passed away.

"Okay, it's all right." Aunt Chen put the stone she picked up into the garden beside her and returned quickly.

"Thank you." Lin Jiayue said involuntarily.

"Hey, girl, don't be so polite. This is what I should do. Let's go in quickly. I will take you to visit the room first. It's a big bedroom."

Lin Jiayue:?

Big bedroom... what do you mean?

Could it be that he was going to sleep with Xu Ruining at night?

Is that what she meant?

Frightened, follow the other party into the villa first, and the first thing you see is a spacious and bright hall. The first floor is like a living room, because there are not many furniture, so it is a bit empty. Looking to the left is the dining room, and the right is an open kitchen. , there are already several people in chef uniforms and hats busy preparing today's dinner.

But despite this, the overall decoration style is still very consistent, not so gaudy, and the colors are all Morandi, fresh and elegant.

Aunt Chen went straight to the second floor, where she came to a completely different world.

The first thing that catches the eye is the towering bookcase, occupying a whole wall. Then, Lin Jiayue's gaze was attracted by a piano by the window, and she couldn't help but paced forward.

This is... Heinzmann's crystal piano.

Due to the exquisite workmanship and the high price of materials, all of them are made of crystal, and the price is as high as more than 2000 million.

Lin Jiayue's hand that she wanted to touch stopped in mid-air, but it didn't come down for a long time. It really shined and shone, especially at night, under the illumination of the lights, it was shining brightly and exuding dazzling brilliance.

At this time, Aunt Chen who was following her said in time: "This piano is Mr. Xu's treasure. It's a pity. It seems to have been auctioned. It has been stored in the original house and the servants are not allowed to approach it on weekdays. I just moved in recently, and said that there must be no damage, no bumps."

It turned out to be Xu Ruining's piano.

Lin Jiayue withdrew her hand in time, she had better not touch it, so as not to leave any traces.

"Miss Lin, shall I take you to the bedroom?" Aunt Chen reminded behind her.

Lin Jiayue nodded slightly.

After reaching the bedroom, Lin Jiayue realized that what Aunt Chen said was really big.

However, it looks like it is composed of several rooms, including a study area, a bathing area, and a rest area. In fact, it is no different from a well-equipped apartment, except that there are no walls in the middle to make the view more open.

However, all of these were really designed and decorated by Xu Ruining?

It seems to be not bad, not losing to those mature and well-known designers.

Thinking of this, Lin Jiayue quickly shook her head, what was she thinking, don't be confused by the illusion in front of her, after all Xu Ruining is a demon, and she needs to be vigilant at all times.

Aunt Chen seemed to have guessed something, covered her mouth and smiled: "Miss Lin can live here with peace of mind, and stay with Mr. Xu."

Eh?

Did I misunderstand something.

She and Xu Ruining didn't have that kind of relationship.

Just as Lin Jiayue wanted to explain, she swallowed the words again. It doesn't seem to matter whether she explains or not right now.

Now everyone in the whole villa thinks that they are in that kind of relationship, or that Mr. Xu has kept a canary.

She felt a little humiliated in her heart, but the moment she made a decision, such a situation was unavoidable.

Someone brought up the luggage and said something to Aunt Chen at the same time.

Then Aunt Chen turned to Lin Jiayue and said, "Dinner is ready, Miss Lin, let's go downstairs for dinner."

dining or something...

Lin Jiayue has no appetite at all.

But Auntie Chen's eyes were very sincere. If Lin Jiayue refused, it would be very difficult for the other party. Thinking of this, she bit the bullet and agreed to go downstairs together.

When she arrived at the restaurant, there was an exquisite Western-style dinner on the pure white tablecloth, and she was served by a special person. Only then did Lin Jiayue realize that she was just eating alone, and she was a little uncomfortable being watched by so many people.

"Aunt Chen, I... I can do it alone." Lin Jiayue couldn't help but speak.

"Okay, then I'll make them all quit." After a pause, Auntie Chen said, "Boss Xu is too, and he hasn't come back yet. Poor Ms. Lin is having dinner alone."

Lin Jiayue twitched the corners of her mouth in embarrassment.

In fact, there is nothing pitiful or anything.

Without Xu Ruining, this house would not seem so scary.

I don't know how my parents are doing now, what they are doing, whether they are also having dinner, and whether they think of her. As long as they think of these, Lin Jiayue misses the past and the time when the family was together.

A layer of water vapor rose from her eyes, Lin Jiayue lowered her head slightly, and did not move her hand holding the tableware.

Everyone left, but Aunt Chen hadn't left yet. Seeing her state, Aunt Chen was a little worried and asked, "Are you homesick?"

!

Lin Jiayue raised her head in surprise.

"Girls will go through this step when they grow up. Find someone they love, leave their original family, and stay with them for the rest of their lives. There will be discomfort at first, but it will be fine to get used to it slowly."

It would be nice if that was the case.

Lin Jiayue thought in her heart, but this is not the case, Aunt Chen must have misunderstood something, at least she misunderstood the real relationship between herself and Xu Ruining, the relationship between them is far from as simple as it seems.

Don't want to be too pretentious.

I don't want to show my weaknesses to others.

Lin Jiayue readjusted her mood and tried to smile.

At this moment, the sound of a car engine came from the yard, Lin Jiayue's heart tightened and she realized something.

Aunt Chen was overjoyed, "Mr. Xu must be back now."

For a moment, nervous, restless, overwhelmed, wanting to dig a hole to bury myself.

Before Lin Jiayue could react, the man had strode into the house. She stood up in panic, her eyes glazed over.

"Sorry for being late."

That's right, the person who spoke was the same voice as the one who communicated with Lin Jiayue on the phone.

So, she is Xu Ruining.

Aunt Chen immediately stepped forward happily, but Lin Jiayue remained unmoved, more precisely, she didn't know what to do.

"Mr. Xu, you are back. Ms. Lin is waiting for you to eat together. I just showed her the master bedroom..."

Listening to Aunt Chen's chattering report, it was difficult for Lin Jiayue to take her eyes off the tall woman for a while.

Is this person really 40?

Lin Jiayue's first question mark.

It looks like the skin is firm and smooth, not inferior to a young girl in her 20s.

Moreover, her facial features are sharper, her nose looks very three-dimensional from the side, and she has a lusty and advanced face. It shows on the face.

If there is one thing that must be there, it may be the eyes.

Those are a pair of eyes with a story, eyes that have experienced great storms, collectively referred to as two words, probably experience.

At this time, Xu Ruining suddenly turned his head, and happened to meet Lin Jiayue's eyes.

Oops, found out.

Lin Jiayue was very regretful, she shouldn't have watched it for so long.

Hurry up and bow your head, thinking to yourself don't come, don't come, don't come.

But the footsteps were approaching gradually, and Lin Jiayue's heart was beating loudly.

The other party's voice came from above the head: "I sent everyone out, and now there are only two of us in the house."

This voice is surprisingly gentle, it must be an illusion, a disguise.

Seeing that Lin Jiayue was still keeping her face open and motionless, Xu Ruining had no choice but to say, "Sit down and talk first."

Wen Tun's body touched the bench again, and Lin Jiayue buried her head low.

"You seem to be very afraid of me." Xu Ruining's leisurely voice came, his eyes fixed on the girl.

"Not afraid..." Lin Jiayue's voice trembled slightly.

Xu Ruining suddenly smiled, as if he saw that she was lying.

But I don't intend to tear her down.

"There is no need to introduce yourself. Before eating, there is a contract that needs to be signed by you."

contract?

Only then did Lin Jiayue raise her face, and saw the other party pushing a contract in front of her, and a few large characters came into view.

"A co-living agreement?"

Accidentally read it out.

"This is a guarantee for me. With this, I can rest assured that you will not escape." Xu Ruining said leisurely.

"I'm not someone who doesn't keep their promises like that." Lin Jiayue gently clenched her fists.

"I'm a businessman, and I only believe in things with legal effect. All verbal promises are too vague." Xu Ruining narrowed his eyes slightly when he said this, as if he remembered something.

Well, it's just a contract, it's not a difficult task for Lin Jiayue.

After all, from the moment she stepped out of the house, there was no turning back.

Without further ado, he picked up the pen, scribbled down his name in the signature area, and then put down the pen.

Xu Ruining narrowed his eyes and looked at her: "Don't you want to read the contract?"

"No need." Lin Jiayue withdrew the hand that had just held the pen and quietly put it under the table, still trembling slightly.

Sure enough, he was a businessman, and he had the nature of paying money and delivering goods, but the goods became Lin Jiayue.

In the next second, Xu Ruining carefully put away the contract, and the smile in his eyes seemed to be something valuable, which made Lin Jiayue look very incredible.

What a strange person.

"So now, it's time to talk about marriage."

marry? !

These two words exploded in Lin Jiayue's mind. Does this woman want to marry herself?

How can two women get married, and besides...

"No, have you signed the contract yet?"

"A contract is a contract, and a marriage is a marriage. These are two different things." Xu Ruining corrected.

Lin Jiayue hadn't recovered from the impact of the word "marriage", she looked confused.

At this time, Xu Ruining had no choice but to say something more, as if to explain intentionally: "But it's not a marriage in the traditional sense. After all, same-sex marriage certificates are not yet available in China, but a grand wedding is what I can give you."

The other party's words were very serious, and Lin Jiayue was in a daze for a while, unable to tell the truth from the fake.

"I haven't thought about getting married yet..."

Xu Ruining smiled lightly, without a lot of harshness, and said, "You can think slowly, don't worry, and then tell Huang Ying what you want, and let her make arrangements. I will try my best to give you a wedding that you are satisfied with."

I am satisfied with the wedding, Lin Jiayue whispered in her heart.

Before coming here, she had never thought about getting married at all, and even hoped that the fewer people would know about her trading relationship with Xu Ruining, the better.

If it is true as the other party said, it will be a grand wedding, and celebrities from all walks of life will be entertained at that time. There will be media reports, and the whole world will know.

Don't want that.

Lin Jiayue just wants to live in peace, even if she is looking for a place of peace in the current situation.

"Wedding or something... I don't want it." Lin Jiayue lowered her eyes and said in a voice almost as small as a mosquito.

Xu Ruining was a little surprised, but soon showed an expected expression.

"Well, if you have any other ideas or needs, tell me tonight." Xu Ruining said simply.

Lin Jiayue was a little surprised. The other party was not angry that she didn't want a wedding, so getting married was just a joke, and she felt a little more relaxed.

So, should I take this opportunity to make my own request? Don't miss this opportunity. Before going out, she promised her mother that she would try her best to get the chance to go home.

"Have requests…"

"Tell me." Xu Ruining looked at her patiently.

"At least let me have a chance to go home and spend the night for a while." Lin Jiayue said.

"Of course." Xu Ruining looked relaxed, "How about once a month?"

In fact, Lin Jiayue originally planned to mention once a week, after all, the other party would definitely not agree to once a week, but it turned out to be once a month.

Forget it, at least you can go back.

"What's more, for the convenience of going to school, I usually need to live in an apartment near the school."

Hearing this, the other party began to hesitate, one second, two seconds, three seconds... almost ten seconds passed.

"No problem, any more?"

Somewhat surprised.

Lin Jiayue swallowed her throat. In this case, she will not be polite.

"I don't want my classmates to know about our relationship. I want to finish college in peace."

After saying this, Lin Jiayue looked up and saw that the other party was looking at her with complex and meaningful eyes, which made her extremely uncomfortable.

"I know." Xu Ruining said.

she knows?

Lin Jiayue suddenly remembered that the report about the Lin family's resurrection didn't say who was there to help, so Xu Ruining didn't reveal the reason for it on purpose?

It's unbelievable that this man would be so thoughtful.

Suddenly she became bolder, and Lin Jiayue actually asked, "Can I choose not to live here?"

Xu Ruining laughed after hearing this, it was the laughter that Lin Jiayue had heard on the phone.

What's the matter, are you laughing at her?

"Miss Lin, it's not good to be too pushy." She said it in a joking tone, as if she wasn't angry.
