"Is this the place? Could we have come to the wrong place? This seems a bit too exaggerated."

"No, the location is right here. The security guards at the gate let us in. How could there be a mistake? In such a high-end community, the security guards wouldn't let people in so easily."

"Should we call her and ask?"

"No, no, I saw her family's conspicuous car and that tree. It should be the one she mentioned to us at the bar before."

"Hmm, it should be... she's out. Is she the one who directed people to carry the cushions?"

"Yes, it's her!"

The two people who had been lurking around the intricately patterned wrought iron gate waved happily at you as you emerged from the villa.

"Tao Tao! Liu Yi!" You were surprised to see two people jumping and waving at you from outside the wall.

As you hurried to the door to open it for them, you didn't forget to turn back and give Qin Che a knowing look.

After Qin Che laid the huge moisture-proof mat he was holding on the ground, he straightened up and shrugged at you.

At this point, you have already picked up two people.

Tao Tao handed you a box of cream puffs, saying, "So surprised! It seems your family has done an excellent job of keeping this a secret."

"He invited you here?"

“Yes, he said you’ve been in a bad mood lately, so he asked us to come and chat with you. What’s wrong? You look a little more haggard than the last time I saw you…” Liu Yi hooked her wrist around your wrist and looked you up and down.

“Yes, didn’t you say you were going on vacation? Haven’t you left yet?” Tao Tao took your other arm.

"There was a small accident, maybe we should go in a few days." You took their arms and walked into the courtyard.

Under the huge maple tree, in the short time it took you to exchange a few words, Qin Che had already laid another thick wool blanket on the moisture-proof mat.

The small tea stove on one side was already lit, and tiny bubbles were rising from the amber-colored tea in the transparent teapot.

Besides chestnuts, the small grill also had a few tangerines and sugarcane that had been trimmed and cut into small pieces.

"My goodness, you're living such a blissful life!" Tao Tao exclaimed dramatically.

"Did we come here specifically to prepare this?" Liu Yi asked, somewhat touched.

You placed the cream puff in your hand on the low table next to the cushion and invited the two of them to take off their shoes and sit on the cushion.

"He prepared everything. I didn't even know you were coming. You guys are really something, not even telling me beforehand." Although you were grumbling, you felt incredibly sweet inside. "No wonder you bought so much food for me today. I was thinking that there were only two of us, how could we possibly eat so much? So that's why."

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a load of dog food, just like that." Tao Tao shook her head, looking quite helpless.

"Don't eat the dog food, save room for barbecue later..." you chuckled, pulling Tao Tao, who was sitting cross-legged beside you, to quickly make amends.

"There's also barbecue!" Liu Yi's eyes sparkled.

"Hmm, would you like to try my cooking, or would you like to try it yourself? Either way is fine," you said as you poured tea for the two of them.

"Of course we can't just watch you work hard. We can help you out or something," Liu Yi replied immediately after taking the black tea you offered.
