Chapter 92: Chapter 92 Villa

On the day the villa renovation was completed, Xu Ke drove Lin Mengyao to the Yun Family’s villa on the top of Kangshi Mountain.

Gazing at the villa situated halfway up the mountain, its exterior exuding the grandeur only seen in aristocratic designs of the previous century, Lin Mengyao’s heart involuntarily trembled twice. Kangshi Mountain’s villa is not a place you can just walk into with money, but those who live here certainly aren’t lacking in wealth.

This is a place the Lin Family has dreamed of entering. In Lin Mengyao’s life plans, she thought she might only live here forty years later, when she’s nearly seventy. Unexpectedly, Xu Ke brought this goal forward by a whole forty years. How could Lin Mengyao not be excited? However, her excitement didn’t last long and quickly faded, because she remembered the fact that she was still in a cold war with Xu Ke.

"Actually, we should have moved in earlier, but I was afraid you wouldn’t like the interior decoration, so I had it redone. I don’t even know if this style suits your taste." Xu Ke, holding Lin Mengyao’s hand, led her through the long pathway to the villa’s front door and pulled a gray silk handkerchief from his jacket pocket, saying to Lin Mengyao, "Can I blindfold you? I want to give you a surprise."

Lin Mengyao glanced at the handkerchief, then at Xu Ke’s eyes, and nodded to allow him to proceed. As soon as she nodded, the cool, smooth silk handkerchief eagerly covered her eyes, tied loosely and comfortably.

In the darkness, Xu Ke held Lin Mengyao’s hand and led her into their new home.

The two stood side by side as Xu Ke asked, "Ready?" After she nodded, he untied the handkerchief.

The villa’s interior was decorated in an American vintage style. Large swaths of dark green caught Lin Mengyao’s eyes; this was exactly what she’d dreamed her home would look like.

Lin Mengyao’s gaping mouth and sparkling eyes, Xu Ke laughed and asked,
