Fu Qingye hummed in acknowledgment. “Sure. Stay safe and don’t go out alone at night. There aren’t a lot of people around and you don’t want to run into bad ones. Also, there are wild animals in the mountain so don’t wander unnecessarily. I think I should hire a few bodyguards for you.”
“Qingye.” Shen Xi was filled with warmth as she replied with a smile. “You nag more than my mom. Don’t you worry, I won’t lose a limb and will return in one piece.”
“What are you talking about?” Fu Qingye had no idea why, but he was just worried. He was afraid that she might not sleep well, eat well, or be in danger. “Call me whenever you have questions.”
The girl would rather have nothing and stay alone in a huge and empty estate. He was afraid that she might be scared.
“Okay.” Shen Xi gave a nod before cheerfully enquiring. “It’s such a big place. Can I really sleep in any room? It’s all up to me?”
“Of course.” Fu Qingye’s voice was warm. “Stay in whichever room you like. The cars are in the garage and the keys are in the living room’s cabinet. Pick any car you like.”
“Thank you, Qingye.” During the time they were on the call, Shen Xi had already dragged her suitcase to the living room.
It was a massive living room with a handcrafted stained-glass high ceiling. It was as beautiful as a royal palace.
The sofa, coffee table, and furniture in the living room had their own unique sense of design while walls had rare and famous paintings hung all over. The place appeared low-key yet exuded an air of opulence.
Since Shen Xi was not picky and could not be bothered to move after a day of the flight, she chose the room closest to her and that required the least amount of walking.
The room was huge but the layout was a little odd and all over the place.
There was a princess bed, with sky blue silk bedding and a white canopy to match.
The floor was carpeted with a soft and white woolen rug of fancy needlework.
A pink wardrobe and a matching set of the dressing table and chair sat in the room.
There were books of various genres on the gray shelves.
Lots of cute plushies were placed on a saturated orange leather sofa.
The furniture was rather tasteful on its own, but the various styles and colors put together did make it seem chaotic. It was as though the unwanted furniture were dumped here.
Glancing around, Shen Xi believed this may be the storage room and decided to stay there.
She did not feel it was right to stay in the other rooms because it would only be awkward to sleep in the room of someone else’s family member.
She woke after a nap to unpack her luggage, only to feel weirder when she opened the wardrobe.
The wardrobe door opened to access a huge walk-in closet.
The walk-in closet was filled to the brim with clothes – girls’ clothes, jewelry, accessories, and hats of various styles and colors.
Shen Xi was cross-eyed by the sight of it. All the big brands and latest collections of luxury clothes were here. There were also numerous hottest and limited-edition fashion brands as well as a rack of Yun Jin’s latest release.
She was starting to suspect what was the room she casually moved into used for. Did one of the young masters of the Fu family have the hobby of collecting clothes?
Shen Xi could understand that children of the wealthy had their own quirks. These clothes were new and still had tags on them.
The sky was dark outside.
A red sports car drove into the estate.
