The fish pond connects the past and present, and the tyrants of the fallen country seek fame every d

The small pavilion is surrounded by these blooming flowers, and no matter from which angle you look at it, you can see a picturesque scenery.

The servants were busy and orderly, and the whole small garden was full of the breath of life.

Not long after the two sat down, an exquisite little food cart was pushed up.

It is filled with various kinds of Western dim sum, as well as freshly baked, fragrant Chinese dim sum.

After pouring a cup of hot tea for Su Yuan, Yu Nanxi finally spoke out her true feelings: "I wasn't very nice to you just now. I'm sorry."

She lowered her head with a very gentle expression, like a child who had done something wrong and was seeking forgiveness.

In fact, Su Yuan didn't take her attitude to heart, but after hearing what she said, she felt a little curious.

"Then may I ask, why do you have that attitude?"

she asked tentatively.

Yu Nanxi seemed a little uneasy, and after a while she hesitated before speaking: "Because grandpa doesn't want to repay the favor, I'm worried that you'll be tricked by him and your mood will be even worse, so I told you that his hearing hasn't been very good recently."

She spoke in a low voice, but every word was full of sincerity.

Su Yuan looked at her for a while and felt a little surprised.

Is this true or false?

Mr. Yu’s granddaughter is so innocent?

The Yu Nanxi in front of him seemed very different from the image in the rumors.

Yu Nanxi blushed at her gaze and said nervously, "If you're angry, I can apologize to you."

There was a hint of pleading in her tone.

Su Yuan quickly shook her head in denial, "It's okay, don't think too much. Just kidding, if I hadn't responded in time, who knows what she would have thought of next."

She muttered to herself.

But no matter how you look at it, Yu Nanxi now is like two different people compared to the person who lost his temper at the banquet that day.

Su Yuan suppressed this question in her heart and did not speak it out.

The most taboo thing in interacting with people is to talk too much with someone you just met, and this was only the second time she and Yu Nanxi had met.

The understanding between them is far from deep enough.

Soon, the two chatted and laughed, and talked about some gossip, and it was already evening.

Yu Nanxi looked at Su Yuan apologetically, "We've been chatting for so long without realizing it. How about I give you a ride?"

There was a hint of apology in her eyes.

Su Yuan quickly refused: "No need to trouble you, I have a bodyguard here."

There was determination in her words.

"Ok."

Seeing her insistence, Yu Nanxi didn't say anything more, but just asked the servant to lead the way for Su Yuan.

Return to the villa.

Su Yuan suddenly collapsed on the sofa, as if all the strength in her body had been drained.

My body felt as heavy as if I was being crushed by a huge rock. I didn't even have the strength to sit up.

Seeing this, Xie Ling'er, who was doing homework after school, immediately put down the textbook in her hand and handed her a cup of warm water.

Her warm fingers touched the edge of the cup. She walked cautiously to the sofa and asked softly, "Sister Yuanyuan, would you like to have a drink of water and rest for a while?"

Su Yuan struggled to sit up, gently took the cup of water, said thank you slightly, and then hugged the cup in a daze.

The warm feeling gradually seeped into her skin, but failed to completely dispel the fatigue and confusion in her heart.

All of this was actually similar to what Xiao Yanheng had said before.

Mr. Yu really just wanted to see if he was qualified to be a partner, rather than giving a clear result directly.

Su Yuan couldn't help but sigh, his heart filled with helplessness and confusion.

How arrogant!

This attitude made her a little angry.

Perhaps because of her grandfather's incident, she had already developed a prejudice against the Yu family's practices.

Maybe at that time, Mr. Yu sold the antique only for economic considerations, and thought of buying it back when he had money in the future.

But in the final analysis, it is not so easy to tell whether this matter is good or bad.

However, Su Yuan is more inclined to believe her grandfather.

What's more, the current situation is so complicated that Mr. Yu's thoughts have become unpredictable.

If he really wanted to cooperate with me, why was he always so vague?

Such behavior makes people feel that they lack trust and respect, and even feel that they are being treated as potential enemies and are being guarded against.

Su Yuan smiled, trying to ease the tension in her mood, then shook her head, trying to drive these chaotic thoughts out of her mind.

At this moment, an idea suddenly popped up: Maybe I can ask Yang Sheng about the Yu family's situation?

Thinking of this, she turned to look at Yang Sheng who was sitting not far away.

"Yang Sheng, do you know the situation of the Yu family?"

Yang Sheng looked up at her, seeming a little surprised, but did not respond immediately. Instead, he shook his head silently, "Why are you asking me this all of a sudden?"

Feeling that the atmosphere was a little subtle, Su Yuan couldn't help but smile a little embarrassedly, "I'm just a little curious."

She explained, a hint of apology in her voice, hoping it wouldn't make things awkward between them.

After the words fell, the living room fell into a brief silence. The air seemed to freeze, and only the sound of each other's light breathing could be heard.

In order to break the sudden silence, Su Yuan took the initiative to speak, "Then you should rest first. I will go upstairs as well."

Try to keep your tone relaxed and natural so as not to put any unnecessary burden or pressure on the other person.

After saying this, she slowly stood up and walked towards the stairs.

After returning to the room, Su Yuan finally released the system and prepared to check the next tasks and clues.

【Dear, have you seen the latest update? 】

Ever since having afternoon tea, the system has been jumping around in Su Yuan's mind.

That lively look is like a child who has got a favorite toy and can't calm down.

Su Yuan sighed. She knew that if she didn't respond, this naughty guy would probably not stop. "Not yet. Tell me."

She said helplessly.

The system seemed to have heard the long-awaited response. It smiled innocently at first, then realized the importance of the topic and immediately became serious, as if it was discussing something very important.

[Dear users, we have added a bounty mission this time. You can get more points by recovering lost antiques.]

Although its voice still sounds like electronic synthesis, it seems particularly serious and solemn at this moment.

"Is that so?"

Su Yuan responded in a low voice, without much surprise or dissatisfaction in her tone, but careful observation would reveal that her face was obviously a little gloomy.

Why choose this time to release new tasks?

Although she felt doubtful and even a little annoyed, she suppressed her emotions and pretended to be nonchalant as she continued to ask, "Why are there suddenly new tasks?"

The system, apparently immersed in the promise of good news, did not notice the change in the user's tone and remained in an excited state, blurting out the answer.
