Lin Mengyao was startled by the sudden formality of Housekeeper Zhao, and she subtly scratched Xu Ke’s palm, giving him a questioning look.

Xu Ke smiled and whispered in Lin Mengyao’s ear, "I forgot to tell you, Grandpa Zhao has been my grandfather’s butler for decades. He actually graduated from a butler school, so he’s particularly attentive to etiquette. Don’t mind it." Xu Ke shook Lin Mengyao’s hand and added softly, "He’s easy to get along with. If you have any requests, just tell Grandpa Zhao. Being too respectful might make him uncomfortable."

Xu Ke wrapped an arm around Lin Mengyao’s shoulder, looking quite pleased with himself, which made the two in the

Lin Mengyao out of the car by the arm and headed towards another part of the estate, speaking with the excitement of a teenager just hitting puberty, "I built a huge greenhouse behind the manor, filled with all kinds of flowers, and you will absolutely love it.
