At eleven o'clock at noon, the car that picked up Wen Li arrived at Ningzhou City smoothly. After an hour of winding mountain roads, we finally came out of Wutong Town.
Wen Li is a child who grew up in Wutong Town. He has been to many places over the years, not only around the world, but also at least in dozens of countries.
However, in the past fifteen years, I have never set foot in Ningzhou again. Along the way, there are still high-rise buildings made of reinforced concrete, cold and inhumane.
Fifteen years are enough time for this already extremely rich and prosperous place to develop into an even more astonishing development.
The car drove until it reached the south of Ningzhou City. The bustling crowds along the way gradually dissipated, and when the scenery that could be seen changed from high-rise buildings to gardens in the city, the destination was reached.
Yuejing Haoting in the south of the city is one of the earliest real estate developments in Ningzhou. Nowadays, every inch of land is at a premium, and the powerful Mu family of Ningzhou is located in it.
The most top-notch luxury area, both in terms of security and greening, is impeccably done. At eleven o'clock, young women with children and nannies and servants can be seen on the lawns on both sides of the stone road.
The most central area of the entire luxury area is the Mu family villa.
After getting off the bus, Ah Jing picked up Wen Li's luggage and took her further inside. The gardener and servant who were pruning flowers on the lawn looked up curiously at the girl who looked very grand.
Ah Jing and Wen Li walked for about ten minutes before arriving at the main entrance. Even the fence at the entrance of the magnificent townhouse was glowing with golden light, from the fountain designed by a famous artist at the entrance to the exquisitely carved sculptures made of expensive materials. The Roman columns all reflect the Mu family's financial wealth.
Ajing carried his luggage and entered through the door. The footsteps on the wooden floor sounded a little heavy. Wen Li raised his head and looked at the several-meter-long crystal lamp above his head.
The reflected brilliance brings a luxurious atmosphere to the entire room. The handmade carpet under the coffee table has not faded even though so many people have stepped on it.
There was a slight smile on her lips. Fifteen years had passed, and this house was different from what she remembered.
The renovations are getting more and more luxurious. The Mu family's business has been doing well in recent years, and their status in Ningzhou has risen to a higher level.
It seems that time can really change a lot of things.
"Old man, the eldest young master has something urgent and cannot leave. Please let me send the third lady back first." A Jing walked to the center of the living room and said respectfully.
Mu Kuiyuan was sitting on the sofa in the middle of the living room. The sofa was made of extremely hard golden nanmu and had soft cushions, which made it look quite grand.
When he raised his eyes, the picture flashing through Wen Li's mind was clear.
"Child, I am Grandpa, my name is Grandpa..."
As if across time and space, the sound overlapped again.
"You've grown so big, come here, kid." Mu Kuiyuan's eyes fell on Wen Li and he waved to her.
The old man was wearing a blue coat, and his gray silver hair was full of energy. His two sharp eyebrows were still full of energy after years of baptism.
"Come here and let Grandpa take a look." Mu Kuiyuan seemed to see Wen Li's indifferent look and continued to call in a soft voice.
The man who was immersed in his own thoughts walked over and stood still in front of the old man.
"Good boy, you have suffered outside all these years. Grandpa will never let you suffer like that again in the future. Let's go home." Mu Kuiyuan held Wen Li's hand, with a bit of heartache in his tone.
"What should I call you?" Wen Li opened his mouth and said his first words after entering Mu's house. The very calm tone and the slightly doubtful eyes made the exploration in the old man's eyes lessen a bit.
"I am your grandfather, Mu Kuiyuan." The old man said his name word for word, as if he was afraid that she would forget it, "Do you remember?"
"Grandpa." Wen Li finally spoke and said these two words.
Ah Jing raised his eyebrows and glanced. He had met many people after following Mu Chenyu for so many years. When Wen Li was talking to the eldest young master just now, his attitude was not so kind to the old man.
Hearing Wen Li's cry, Mu Kuiyuan's heart dropped, and the smile on his face became even brighter.
"Good boy, you have endured hardships outside these years. Now that you are back, grandpa will not let you suffer anymore." Mu Kuiyuan held Wen Li's hand and said these words solemnly.
"Everyone knows how much the old man loves the third lady, but the third lady must be tired now. I'll take her up first to pack her luggage and have a rest. We'll talk about anything later when we have dinner together in the evening." One person looked older. The woman came over and took Mu Kuiyuan's hand away from Wen Li with a smile.
It seems that she is closer to the Mu family. The servant looks like this, but she is able to talk to Mr. Mu like this.
"Look at my memory." The old man raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, "Li Li, go up with Aunt Ruan and have a good rest. Everyone will be back in the evening, and I will introduce them to you one by one."
Wen Li nodded and followed Aunt Ruan upstairs.
As soon as she climbed a few steps, she heard the old man's unhappy voice coming from behind, as if he was blaming Mu Chenyu for not sending her back in person.
This is because he is angry at A Jing.
Aunt Ruan took Wen Li to the room at the end of the corridor on the second floor and stopped. The tan wooden door was opened. The room was not big or small, and the decorations were quite common.
"Miss Third came back in a bit of a hurry. The old man urged us to arrange it carefully. See if you like it? If there is anything you are not satisfied with, please tell me and I will have someone correct it right away." Aunt Ruan said I also smoothed out the wrinkles on the sheets.
Wen Li looked at the interior of the room. It had a decoration style like the living room first. This room naturally had a retro style, but it also had everything it should have.
"No problem, I can live anywhere." Wen Li nodded slightly to Aunt Ruan.
"Okay, Miss Third, have a good rest. I'll have someone bring you some food later." Aunt Ruan said before exiting the room, "The husband has gone to the company, and the wife has an appointment today and is not at home. Miss Ruan has something to do at school." I rushed over to deal with it. The young master should be back soon, and the old man will introduce it to you then. "
With the sound of the wooden door closing, Wen Li sat beside the bed. There was a family photo on the bedside table. There were six members of the family, whether they were the middle-aged Mu family or their three young children.
There is no doubt that the men are handsome and the women are beautiful.
The rumors from the outside world are indeed true. The three children of the Mu family are all the best, both in terms of ability and appearance, and they are all impeccable.
She left early, so of course she was not included in this photo.
Putting a photo of Mu's family in her room would be a bit too deliberate.
Wen Li looked at it, then moved his fingertips lightly to fasten the photo frame on it.
Chapter 2 is coming, Amitofu, my little fairies, please fly back quickly.
