While stroking the photo frame, he slowly walked to the rocking chair and sat down. Although he had lived with Meng Man for three years, he had never let her into his bedroom. This was his promise to a woman that had passed on 20 years ago.

A knock on the door interrupted Old Master Huan's thoughts. He got up and put the photo frame back into the drawer and said coldly: "Come in."

The door opened and the butler, Uncle Fu, was standing at the entrance, "Master, you didn't eat anything in the morning, so I brought you a bowl of wontons that you love."

"Come in."

Uncle Fu walked in slowly with the plate in his hands. He looked at Old Master Huan with tears still in the corner of his eyes and knew what had just happened. He didn't ask what had happened.

Old Master Huan hated people who gossiped the most.

"Was Meng Man in front of Gufeng's door yesterday?" Old Master Huan used a spoon and put a little bit of chaos into his mouth. However, his seemingly careless words gave Uncle Fu a fright.

He did see this yesterday, but no one said anything about it. How did Old Master Huan know?

"Master, Miss Meng might have coincidentally met the young master in the corridor, right?" Uncle Fu lowered his head and replied unhurriedly.

"Yes, the wontons today, did you put in the scallops? Not bad." Old Master Huan immediately changed the topic. The master and servant duo seemed to be trying to solve some riddle, but they understood each other's intentions.

In the Bing Mansion, Bing Xia closed the door and sat on the bed without moving.

Di di di. The ringing of the phone interrupted her thoughts. She picked up the phone. It was an unfamiliar number. She didn't know if it was a disturbing call, so she directly hung up.

Looking out the window, she did not sleep at all. Over the past few days, Bing Feng had not approached her, and the egg tart that he bought yesterday had also been snatched away by Leng Ning to curry her father's favor.

She was now a superfluous member of the family again.

With a helpless smile, he walked into the bathroom. He wore a set of pink sports attire, his black hair tied into a ponytail, looking relaxed and lively. There was a confident and adorable expression on his face, and his fair skin added to his charm.

Carrying a backpack, wearing a pair of white sneakers, he went out.

Just as she stepped out of the Bing Mansion iron gate, she saw a familiar grey car stopped at the side of the road. A man with a tall stature wearing casual clothes was looking at her with satisfaction.

She walked forward with a smile. It was quite rare to see Huan Gufeng like this. He usually wore black formal attire, giving off a haughty air.

"I just called you, why didn't you pick up?" Huan Gufeng looked at the girl in front of him. She was fresh and refined. The pink made her face even more pale. Her long eyelashes covered by her black eyes shone with a gentle light.

Bing Xia was stunned. It turned out that the unfamiliar phone call was from Huan Gufeng. She felt a little embarrassed and wanted to explain, but she met Huan Gufeng's deep and gentle eyes.

She blushed and lowered her head.

"Where are you going in the early morning? I'll send you off. " Huan Gufeng looked at the shy Bing Xia. He wanted to hug her. A cute girl could give him a different feeling every time. Was this love? He had never believed in such things as love. Even when he was ten years old and his mother died, his father would not come back.

Bing Xia remembered that they were going to the orphanage today to teach the children music and dance, so she said timidly, "I'm sure you don't want to go."

Huan Gufeng frowned. He had left Huan Mansion early in the morning and didn't want to go to the company, so he let his secretary go back directly to his office. As he drove, he unknowingly arrived at Bing Mansion and tried to make a phone call, but was hung up.

"I'll rest today. I want to go with you to take a look. Tell me, I can send you there." She was not dreaming. Yesterday, when she went back home, she was still wondering if she could see Huan Gufeng again, but as soon as she stepped out of the door, she saw Huan Gufeng standing not far away from the door.

She couldn't help but laugh. That smile that was like a flower really made Huan Gufeng a bit dazed.

The two of them stood in front of the car without speaking, but their eyes looked at each other and they felt like they had a lot to say to each other.

"Get in." It was Huan Gufeng who broke the silence.

Huan Gufeng opened the car door for her. She lowered her head and got into the car, and he personally closed the door for her before walking back to the driver's side of the car. He started the car, and the car roared away.

The car drove towards the outskirts of the city. Bing Xia also bought a lot of food and drinks, which made Huan Gufeng wonder if they were going to travel. But Bing Xia mysteriously stopped talking and just smiled as he talked about the place.

Opening the car window, the air was especially fresh. The wind blew past Bing Xia's ears as he looked at the tall trees on both sides of the road. Occasionally, he could see a few people walking slowly, which was a sharp contrast to the air in the city.

An hour later, the car entered a small town, Peach Blossom Town. This was the first time Huan Gufeng came here, he went overseas the most, his family's business was not involved in agriculture, so he rarely visited the countryside.

Bing Xia gave a familiar guide to Huan Gufeng and guided him into the town. Along the way, everyone smiled at the two of them with admiration and surprise in their eyes.

Finally, the car stopped in front of a secluded courtyard. Huan Gufeng looked around, the courtyard wasn't big, it was built close to the mountain, and it was a good place to retire. A new idea sprouted in his mind.

He was a businessman, and his eyes could always catch the opportunity of doing business.

"Mr. Huan, we're here." Bing Xia said politely. She saw that Huan Gufeng didn't get angry at all along the way and had even cooperatively spent money to buy a lot of food and drinks.

"Don't call me Mr. Huan, just call me Dai Wei. I think we should be friends now, don't call me that. I can call you Lili, that's what I heard your father call you last time." Huan Gufeng spoke in a gentle tone as he opened the trunk of the car and took down the stuffy contents.

Bing Xia was shocked once again. Huan Gufeng's words surprised her. They had only gotten to know each other since the day before the egg tart. Now, they could call each other by their nickname. Wasn't it too quick?
