The butler said, “Young Madam didn’t say.”

To Lu Qingye, who worked overtime all year round, nine o’clock might not be a big deal, but it did not seem reasonable for Meng Chuyuan to still be out at this time.

‘What was she busy with?’

Seeing that Lu Qingye was deep in thought, the butler took the initiative to ask, “Should I call Young Madam and ask her to come back?”

Lu Qingye narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, “No need. She’ll come back when she’s tired.”

He had no right to interfere with Meng Chuyuan’s freedom, nor did he want to set too many rules for her. As long as she was happy, nothing else was a problem.

The butler said, “Alright, then you can rest for a while. I’ll prepare some food for you.”

While the butler was preparing dinner for him, Lu Qingye went to the second floor and ran to his bedroom. He pushed open the door and reached for the switch on the wall to turn on the light.

The dark bedroom instantly lit up. He saw that the bedsheets and covers had been replaced with a light green plaid style. The curtains and carpet had also been changed, and some of the furniture had been moved.

Lu Qingye could not help but be stunned for a moment. When he saw that the room had been transformed into this, he was quite shocked.

Lu Qingye knew that this was something Meng Chuyuan could do. He walked in slowly and took a look around.

After this familiar space was modified, he suddenly felt a little awkward. It was clearly his bedroom, but now he felt like he was trespassing into a girl’s room.

He turned from the bedroom to the cloakroom. The moment he pushed open the cabinet door, he saw all kinds of women’s clothes. They were arranged according to color from dark to light. Every season’s clothes were in order.

Not only did Meng Chuyuan have a lot of beautiful clothes, but her bag and shoes also occupied an entire wall of cabinets. In comparison, Lu Qingye’s cabinet of shirts and suits was much more monotonous.

He grabbed a set of gray pajamas from the cabinet and went to the bathroom.

At around 9:30 pm, Meng Chuyuan arrived home. As soon as she entered the house, she saw the butler in the kitchen.

Meng Chuyuan found it strange. Why was the butler cooking?

Because the servants in the Lu family had their own positions, under normal circumstances, such a situation would not happen. Out of curiosity, Meng Chuyuan walked over.

“Uncle Chen, why are you in the kitchen? Are you hungry?”

When the butler heard this, he turned to look at Meng Chuyuan and explained, “Eldest Young Master is back. I was thinking of making some food for him, but I don’t cook much. My lover cooks at home.”

Not only was he thinking about what to cook, but he was also worried that Lu Qingye would dislike it when he ate it later.

Seeing Meng Chuyuan return, the butler asked her for help. “Young Madam, why don’t you cook up a random dish?”

“Alright, I’ll do it.”

Perhaps it was because she had been recording variety shows with Lu Jinsen most of the time and had read the netizens’ comments in private, she did not realize that the “young master” the butler was talking about was Lu Qingye.

Meng Chuyuan rolled up half of her sleeves and quickly made a simple bowl of vegetable noodles. In the end, the butler criticized that her dish was too plain and asked her to fry another egg.

After washing the pot and putting it back, she said, “I still have to fry an egg!? It’s either he eats it or goes hungry.”

Although it was not difficult to fry an egg, the pot was already washed. Meng Chuyuan could not be bothered to start the fire again.

After making the bowl of noodles, Meng Chuyuan left the rest to the butler and went upstairs.

Up on the second floor, Meng Chuyuan found that the lights were on in the bedroom. She was wondering why the lights were on. When she came in, she saw that a black suitcase had appeared in the bedroom.

Listening to the faint shower sound coming from the bathroom, she seemed to understand something.

Her cheap husband had returned to the country.

Meng Chuyuan found his suitcase to be an eyesore, so she temporarily put it in the cloakroom. Just as she came out of the cloakroom, the bathroom door opened.

The steam in the bathroom came out first. As the door continued to be pulled open, she slowly saw the muscular figure behind the bathroom door. He was wearing a set of gray pajamas and had wet hair. The smell of shower gel filled the air and emitted a faint aroma.

Lu Qingye looked up inadvertently and saw Meng Chuyuan, who had just come out of the cloakroom.

Her bright and moving deer eyes were like stars that would shine in the night sky. Her facial features were gentle, and her seaweed-like waves scattered in front of her shoulders. Her beautiful collarbone was faintly visible at her collar.

Meng Chuyuan blinked lightly. Her thick eyelashes cast a faint shadow on her eyelids. She looked up and her gaze landed on his nose and lips.

She asked, “When did you get back?”

“Half an hour ago.” Lu Qingye came out of the bathroom and closed the door.

Meng Chuyuan hummed softly and said, “Why didn’t I hear you mention it on the phone the other day?”

“I decided on it that night.” He hadn’t thought of this at the time of the call. Moreover, Meng Chuyuan had hung up the phone in a hurry that day and he didn’t get to talk much.

After Lu Qingye finished drying his hair, Meng Chuyuan had rested enough. It was her turn to take a shower.

Lu Qingye came out of the bedroom and went downstairs. When the butler saw him, he took the initiative to say, “Young Master, the noodles in the kitchen are still hot. Have some to fill your stomach.”

“OKay.” He went to the dining room, pulled out a chair, and sat down.

The butler brought out a bowl of noodles from the kitchen and placed it carefully on the table. He even covered it with a plate to keep it warm.

The moment he opened the plate for Lu Qingye, the butler started to look uneasy. When he opened the plate, Lu Qingye saw that there were only some vegetables and green onions in the bowl. The rest was soup.

The butler noticed the slight change in Lu Qingye’s expression and whispered, “There’s only vegetable noodles. Eat it or go hungry…”

“What?” Lu Qingye raised his head, his eyes filled with coldness as he frowned slightly.

Did he hear wrongly or something?

It had only been a month since they last met, but Butler Chen actually spoke to him like this!

Meeting Lu Qingye’s gaze, the butler quickly explained to him, “Eldest Young Madam said so. She made this bowl of noodles too.”

“…”

Lu Qingye slowly picked up the chopsticks on the table and said softly, “You can leave first.”

The butler: “Okay.”

Looking at the vegetable noodles in front of him, Lu Qingye raised his chopsticks and ate without much hesitation.

The butler observed silently from the side. Seeing that Lu Qingye was eating so happily, he was relieved.

Just now, when Meng Chuyuan finished cooking the noodles, the butler was still wondering whether he should fry an egg. However, when he thought about how he might not be able to cook it well, he gave up.

The noodles and vegetables were actually just so-so, but when paired with the delicious soup, the taste was not bad. Lu Qingye finished it just like that and drank a lot of the soup.

Lu Qingye finished his noodles and sat quietly in the living room for a while.

Because Meng Chuyuan was showering upstairs, he felt that it was inappropriate to go back and stay in the room now.

When the butler finished washing the dishes and came out of the kitchen, he saw Lu Qingye sitting in the living room in a daze. He casually asked, “Young Master, you’re wearing so little. Don’t catch a cold.”
