Shen Ye's home welcomed new members - Mu Jingyan and Mu Jinghuan, who went from temporary residents to permanent residents.

But no one knows exactly how long this "permanent residence" means.

It could be a month, it could be two months, or it could be longer.

Shen Ye was pleased with this outcome.

This two-story villa was originally quite large, but it felt rather deserted with only him and Lin Chunu living there.

Two floors, five bedrooms, two people.

Every morning when I wake up, the house is quiet, and there's not a single person to talk to.

The number of people has now doubled, and the house has suddenly become more lively.

There were four footsteps in the morning and four voices in the evening. The living room was no longer empty; there were always people sitting on the sofa. The breakfasts in the kitchen also increased, from two to four servings.

This lively atmosphere made him feel very comfortable.

It's just that Lin Chunuan is being a little difficult.

What was supposed to be a peaceful time for just the two of them, her brother, was suddenly interrupted by two girls.

This means I'll have even less time to be alone with my brother...

She was quite unhappy.

That night, she found Shen Ye, looking very angry.

"Brother, I don't want them to live here."

Her tone was somewhat sharp, and her face was tense.

"This is our home, why should we let outsiders move in?"

Shen Ye looked at her flustered appearance but wasn't angry.

He knew Lin Chunuan's temper.

This girl has been spoiled by him since she was a child, and he has a very strong possessive nature.

"Nuan Nuan, their situation is rather special."

He explained patiently.

"Mu Jingyan's mother treated her badly, and they were very unhappy at home."

"Now they have nowhere to go, so they have to stay at our house."

"They'll move away naturally once they have somewhere else to go."

Lin Chunu pouted and didn't say anything.

She could actually understand.

Mu Jinghuan, that silly girl, is quite good to her.

She didn't come with the intention of getting her brother to drive the two sisters away; rather, she had another motive:

Using this as an excuse, she pretended to be pitiful in order to get something from her brother...

"I don't care."

She crossed her arms, adopting a negotiating stance.

"If they want to live here, then I need to have conditions."

Shen Ye looked at her, waiting for her to continue.

Lin Chunuan rolled her eyes, then spoke:

"My brother sleeps with me at least two nights a week."

"Otherwise, I won't agree."

Shen Ye considered it for a moment and nodded.

"Okay, I promise you, I'll sleep with Nuannuan two nights a week."

Lin Chunuan's face immediately lit up.

"It's a promise! No taking it back!"

She extended her little finger, wanting to make a pinky promise with Shen Ye.

Shen Ye helplessly extended his finger and made a pinky promise with her.

"No regrets."

Lin Chunuan nodded in satisfaction.

"Then...they can stay here."

As the self-proclaimed mistress of the house, she reluctantly agreed.

..............

a few days later.

The mock exam is over.

Today is Saturday.

Shen Ye originally wanted to stay home, sleep in, and play some games.

But after hearing that Mu Jingyan was going home, he went with her to see her.

Shen Ye was worried about her going back alone.

If that crazy woman Qin Xian goes on another rampage, Mu Jingyan will have a hard time dealing with her alone.

Although Mu Jingyan did not ask him to accompany her, Shen Ye still decided to go with her.

"Are you sure you want to go back?"

Shen Ye stood at the door, looking at Mu Jingyan who was standing quietly beside him.

He was carrying a large, empty suitcase.

It's for packing things up.

"Um."

The girl nodded.

"Go pack up Huanhuan's and my things."

She paused, then added:

"By the way... say goodbye to Mom..."

Her expression was quite calm, revealing no emotion.

Thank you for being with me.

She smiled slightly at Shen Ye.

"Don't thank me."

Shen Ye waved his hand.

"Let's resolve this as soon as possible, so we can return sooner."

The two went out and hailed a taxi.

About half an hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of a villa area in Huaihai City.

That's a very high-end villa area.

There is a security booth at the entrance, with two security guards in uniform standing inside.

The security guard clearly recognized her, nodded, and let the two of them in.

Shen Ye followed her into the villa area.

Once inside, he began to observe his surroundings.

This villa area is actually built on a hill.

The terrain is very undulating; some houses are built on high ground, while others are built on low ground.

The architectural style is also very distinctive.

Some houses are European style, with white exterior walls and pointed roofs, while others are Chinese style, with gray brick walls and upturned eaves.

Others are hybrid styles, where two elements are combined, creating a unique and charming look.

The landscaping in the community is also very good.

There are trees and flower beds everywhere, as well as artificial lakes and small bridges. The paving stones on the road are very fine, and willow trees are planted on both sides.

The entire environment looked much more upscale than Shen Ye's home.

There are differences even among the wealthy...

Shen Ye sighed inwardly.

He turned to look at Mu Jingyan and asked, "Which building do you live in?"

Mu Jingyan raised her hand and pointed to a high ground not far away.

"There."

Shen Ye looked in the direction she was pointing.

It was a villa built on high ground.

The building is three stories high, with light yellow exterior walls and a dark gray roof.

The house is surrounded by a ring of trees, which enclose the entire house in the middle.

From this side, you can only see the upper part of the house.

"That's quite far..."

Shen Ye glanced in that direction and estimated the distance.

If you're driving, it's quite fast; it only takes a few minutes to get there.

But the two of them walked the entire way.

It probably takes about ten minutes to walk from the door to that house.

"Let's go."

Mu Jingyan didn't say anything more and strode forward.

Shen Ye carried his suitcase and followed beside her.

The two walked slowly along the path in the residential area.

It was very quiet the whole way.

A few cars occasionally drive by, but there are very few pedestrians.

After walking for about ten minutes, the two finally arrived at their destination.

Standing in front of the villa, Mu Jingyan stopped in her tracks.

She looked up at the house that was both familiar and unfamiliar.

This is where she grew up.

But now...

She felt a little nervous...

"Are you ready?"

Shen Ye stood beside her and asked softly.

Mu Jingyan took a breath.

"Um."

She reached out her hand, about to unlock the fingerprint lock.

But the door was pushed open from the inside.

Qin Xian, dressed in casual home clothes, stood in the entryway with her arms crossed, leaning against the door frame, her face expressionless.

When her gaze passed over Mu Jingyan, a slight fluctuation appeared in the woman's eyes.
