Zhong Yuhuan was happy. She held the villain with her left hand and the male lead in her right and started walking toward the direction of the door. Softly to the butler she said, “Grandpa Lin, please have the maid bring my dinner upstairs in a bit. I need servings for three.”

Lin was the butler’s last name. He had been the butler for the Zhong’s for dozens of years and basically watched Zhong Yuhuan grew up. He looked at Zhong Chi and replied loudly, “Aye!”

Zhong Chi was fuming from that.

“Zhong Yuhuan, do you understand that you are a girl and they are boys? Why are you holding their hands?”

“So what?” was Zhong Yuhuan’s response.

Zhong Chi was even more angry.

The way she talked to the butler was sweet and tender, when it came to talking to him, she sounded like he owed her some $3,000,000!

The Zhong’s mansion has a total of three floors.

First floor was the living room, a theater room, and the living quarters of the helpers.

Second floor was the bedrooms of the owners.

Three floor was knocked down into one large open area. The entire space had six doors and the center part was connected. It was used for bookshelves, storage, and had even hosted parties in the past. But for the most part it was unused.

Zhong Yuhuan summoned the maid and said, “Empty out the third floor and move all my stuff up there. And, go and buy two more small beds.”

“But, the master….”

“Just do it!” Zhong Yuhuan just cut her off.

Xu Yunhui and her lot hadn’t been living there for long but Zhong Yuhuan had. When it all came down to it, the maid did gravitate more toward the Miss. After a little hesitation, she finally followed Zhong Yuhuan’s instructions.

It was getting late.

Zhong Chi and Xu Yunhui had just crawled into bed before they heard clanging noises coming from outside of the mansion.

Zhong Chi was always busy at work so when he heard the noises, he just frowned but didn’t get up.

“What the heck is she doing now?” He scolded angrily, but nonetheless closed his eyes and fell asleep shortly. He still has a meeting the next morning.

But Xu Yunhui wasn’t able to fall sleep anymore.

She didn’t dare toss and turn in bed and risked disturbing Zhong Chi so she could only lay there stiffly for most of the night.

On the other hand, Zhong Yuhuan had already arranged the two boys to be seated and dinner was being served.

“Let’s have dinner first,” said Zhong Yuhuan.

Warm, yellow light flooded every corner of this spacious, open area.

The light seemed to have finally calmed the two kids down a bit.

“Oh wait, let’s wash your hands first,” said Zhong Yuhuan as she got up from the chair and let them to the bathroom by their hands.

The kids seemed to have finally gotten used to her grabbing their hands by now.

Their cheeks were no longer beet red like they were earlier.

By now the bathroom has already been set up. There was even liquid soap for kids prepared on the sink.
