Love belongs to the mountains and seas, I don't belong to you

Lin Cong said, "Butler Liu, if you're not in a hurry, please have a cup of ginger tea before leaving!"

Butler Liu was a little confused.

"The temperature dropped a lot today, so I made some ginger tea. I heard you coughing just now, and I thought ginger tea could drive away the cold," Lin Cong explained.

"This..." Butler Liu wanted to refuse.

"Butler Liu, Young Master Xiang said that you watched him grow up since he was a child. In my eyes, you are my elder, so don't be polite." Lin Cong's words were flawless.

Butler Liu smiled and said, "Then I will respectfully obey your command."

Butler Liu holds a high position in the Xiang family and is a very important person to both Mr. and Mrs. Xiang.

Lin Cong brought ginger tea and placed it in front of Butler Liu.

Butler Liu quickly stood up and said, "Thank you, Miss Lin."

"Butler Liu, you told me not to be so reserved, so don't be polite to me anymore." Lin Cong said with a smile.

Butler Liu was filled with relief. His young master really had good taste and this girl was really likable.

While drinking ginger tea, Lin Cong asked, "Butler Liu, I actually have something I'd like to ask you for help with?"

"Ms. Lin, please speak." Butler Liu was very happy.

"Mr. Xiang said he would take me to see Grandpa in a few days. I don't know what gift to bring. Can you give me some suggestions?"

Lin Cong was indeed very worried about this matter. She must bring a gift, but she really couldn't think of what to give.

For a person like Mr. Xiang, what kind of rare treasures has he not seen?

"Lin Cong wants to exchange this cup of ginger tea for some information?" Butler Liu asked jokingly.

Lin Cong could tell that Butler Liu was joking and couldn't help but laugh, "Then I'll pour you another cup later and ask for more information."

Butler Liu was amused by Lin Cong's words. He took a sip of ginger tea and said, "Miss Lin, it's good that the gift you brought to Mr. Xiang was thoughtful."

Lin Cong asked, "Nothing else?"

"Mr. Xiang is currently meditating." said Butler Liu.

"What hobbies does Mr. Xiang have?"

"Does delicious food count?" Butler Liu replied.

"Of course, Butler Liu, thank you!"

Lin Cong understood Butler Liu's intention. Delicious food might be the most appropriate gift Lin Cong could prepare.

Lin Cong poured another cup of ginger tea for Butler Liu. "Butler Liu, can I ask you for another favor?"

Butler Liu nodded and said, "Tell me, Miss Lin, you can't drink this ginger tea for nothing."

Lin Cong smiled. "Actually, it's about Mr. Xiang. Can you tell me about his childhood? I...I want to know more about him."

This was Lin Cong's true feelings. She didn't want to blindly let Xiang Shao protect her. If possible, she also wanted to be his armor.

Butler Liu didn't expect Lin Cong to ask this. At this time, Lin Cong felt even more proud of him.

"Master, he has actually never been happy. I'm sure you know about his parents' affairs."

Lin Cong nodded.

"When he was little, the young master was always taken care of by Elder Xiang. He was completely different from other children. When other children were naughty, the young master would stay in the room alone. He was a bit withdrawn."

Speaking of this, a trace of heartache flashed in Butler Liu's eyes.

"Later, the young master fell in love with reading, and he read a lot of books. But fortunately, these books gave the young master an outlet to vent his emotions."

Lin Cong lowered his eyelids. "No wonder he knows everything."

Butler Liu nodded. "Once the young master sets his sights on a goal, he will diligently pursue it. With such perseverance, he has indeed learned a great deal."

"Although Mr. Xiang loves the young master, he is usually very busy. Most of the time, I take care of the young master's daily life. But I am still not careful enough."

"I never cared about the young master, such as whether he should put on more clothes because it's cold, or how he was doing at school. Now I think about it, it's my fault for being too young at that time and not considering things comprehensively." Butler Liu felt a little guilty.

"I guess you didn't have any children at that time, so you definitely couldn't think about those things. A Xiang has been taken good care of by you." Lin Cong comforted.

Butler Liu sighed, "So, Miss Lin, I would also like to ask for your help. Please pay more attention to the young master. He really needs this."

"Don't worry, Butler Liu, thank you for telling me this."

"You're welcome." After checking the time, Butler Liu said, "Miss Lin, I should go back."

Lin Cong nodded, "Okay, Steward Liu, take care."

This time, she didn't see him out.

……

Butler Liu came to a temple in the suburbs.

"Mr. Xiang, I'm back." said Butler Liu.

Mr. Xiang was playing chess and he gestured to Butler Liu to sit opposite him.

"Why did you take so long?" asked Mr. Xiang.

Butler Liu made a move, "It was left behind by Miss Lin's cup of ginger tea."

Xiang Lao asked curiously, "What's going on?"

"He offered me a cup of ginger tea and asked me some questions."

"Oh? That's interesting." Mr. Xiang said with a smile.

"Ask me what gift I should bring to you."

"She's smart enough to look for a solution from you."

"She's a very clever girl. I just replied that it's all in my heart."

Mr. Xiang nodded. "What other questions did you ask?"

"Master's business."

"A Xiang? What do you want to ask A Xiang?" Old Xiang immediately became concerned.

"Some things about the young master's childhood. She said she wanted to know more about him."

"That's thoughtful. Old Liu, how would you rate this girl?"

Butler Liu smiled and said, "Mr. Xiang, I really don't know how to judge her, but after meeting her a few times, I do think she is a good girl."

"Then tell me what's good about it?" Mr. Xiang asked.

"The young master will bring her to see you soon, and you will know when you see her."

Butler Liu really wanted to praise Lin Cong, but he thought that if he praised him too much now, Mr. Xiang might be stricter later, which would be counterproductive.

I'll keep it a secret and let Mr. Xiang discover it himself. There will definitely be more surprises.

Old Xiang laughed and pointed at Butler Liu, "You, you're still keeping me in suspense. Now I really want to meet a girl who can make you praise Ah Xiang for having good taste!"

……

In the afternoon, Lin Cong prepared to go out.

After much deliberation, she decided to make some snacks for Mr. Xiang. Her grandmother had taught her how to make them, and they looked good, tasted good, and weren't greasy.

So at this time, she planned to go out and buy materials.

Arriving in the bedroom, Lin Cong opened the drawer.

Xiang Shao’s “pick any one you want” was not just talk, there were five keys lying in the drawer.

She knew the brand of the car, but she had no idea what model it was.

She took the keys to a Cadillac.

After opening the garage, there was a Cadillac CT5.

Lin Cong thought this car was probably the most low-key one Xiang Shao had ever owned. But she liked it, and she didn't want to be too conspicuous. For her, this car was good enough.

She drove to the supermarket and bought some ingredients for making snacks. Then she bought an oven.

This time, she did use the card given to her by Xiang Shao.

The total expenditure was over 800...

Lin Cong was very happy. Did she complete the task?

On the other hand, when Xiang Shao received the consumption reminder, he was surprised at first.

However, when he saw the "huge sum" of more than 800 yuan, Xiang Shao couldn't help but rub his head. Can 800 yuan make you happy?

After Lin Cong came out of the supermarket, he saw a familiar figure - Su Qian.

She immediately took out her mask and put it on, then quickly walked towards the parking lot.
