Chapter 474 - A Dove Tree (1/2)
After one night spent together, the air between the two lovers vaguely changed.
They had become closer and more comfortable with each other.
Xiong Zhi acted coquettish and asked Linfeng to carry her all the way from her room to the car.
Linfeng was naturally happy to spoil her. With his father's assurance, he generously carried Xiong Zhi and teased her on the way.
It was a good thing that the people in the mansion were taken care of by his father. No one was in sight except the Head Butler of East Wing.
Linfeng put Xiong Zhi down on the passenger's seat and went to the driver's seat.
He had already planned for their date.
Since it was his birthday, Linfeng wanted to introduce to her details of his life before he had met Xiong Zhi.
He wanted her to know the young Linfeng, so he brought Xiong Zhi to the old mansion of the Zhou family.
The ride was long, but fortunately, the luxury car Linfeng chose had the best specifications for smooth travel, so Xiong Zhi was not uncomfortable.
One of Linfeng's hands was on the steering wheel, the other holding Xiong Zhi's hands.
The old mansion of the Zhou family was at a remote area far from the capital city.
It was the place where the young butlers who were still children trained before. Once they pass an assessment in their teens, they would be transferred to the main Zhou Mansion for further experience. Only after passing the butler examination would they be officially assigned duties related to the master's family.
Of course, this was all in the past, before the treaty was dissolved.
Now, it was empty with only the housekeeping and security personnel tending over the mansion. Linfeng was the future successor of the Zhou family, so he had his own private wing in the old Zhou mansion.
The sky was turning orange when they arrived.
It was the autumn dusk where the whole sky burned in a resplendent orange color. It was a perfect time.
Along with a bag, Linfeng carried Xiong Zhi up again.
But when Xiong Zhi heard that this was a place where the young Zhou butlers used to train, she instantly asked to be let down.
”Are you sure? My arms are very strong. I can still carry you for hours,” Linfeng said.
Xiong Zhi looked around. ”Not good. This is the place where you spent your childhood. I can't taint it.”
For Xiong Zhi, this place was like a sacred ground. A place where Linfeng's innocent youth was culminated.
Linfeng looked at her sideways. ”What nonsense is that, how can carrying you taint this place?”
”Let's say it's a sign of my respect to the lost childhood.”
”Lost childhood? You make it sound like a youth drama.” Linfeng said with a laugh.
Seriously, who was teaching his girlfriend with silly things like this?
”Just put me down, I think I can walk already.”
Linfeng stared at her with narrowed eyes. ”…Fine, but if I noticed anything, I'm carrying you up.”
