  The flames that ignited in the ancient house were extinguished after more than ten minutes, and a few wisps of thick black smoke were still slowly floating above the roof.

  Chu Xiyu looked at the charred roof, feeling a little uneasy. How could he be so unlucky today? The house caught fire as soon as he said it was on fire.

  Too strange.

  Fortunately, Qin Ji discovered it in time, so there was no damage to the house and no items were burned. When the fire broke out, Qin Ji immediately helped him take out his grandmother's portrait, which was well protected.

  , not even dust was stained on the surface.

  then.

  Qin Ji accompanied Chu Xiyu into the house to pack some daily items and clothes, and also helped him move into the ancient house.

  Qin Jizhen was the most enthusiastic neighbor he had ever seen.

  After everything was tidied up, Chu Xiyu sat down to rest in the carved front hall. Qin Ji sat next to him and made him a cup of tea.

  Chu Xiyu said thank you softly, holding the cup in both hands and sipping it in small sips.

  His eyes were drooping, his curled eyelashes were trembling slightly, and his peach blossom eyes were shining brightly. He was sitting so quietly on the pear wood chair, as if every strand of his hair was exquisite and beautiful.

  Qin Ji looked at him, fascinated.

  Chu Xiyu carefully looked around the front hall of Qin Ji's house. The front hall was luxurious and spacious. There were many antiques and jades placed on the wooden shelves at the back. He couldn't help but be dazzled by it.

  "Mr. Qin," Chu Xiyu took another sip of tea, her red lips moist, and asked curiously: "Your house is really big. When was it built?"

  Qin Ji stared at Chu Xiyu's seductive red lips and said without raising his eyes, "It's been a hundred or two hundred years."

  "It's actually been so long."

  Chu Xiyu raised his head and glanced at the Western-style hanging lights on the beams, guessing that this house might have been renovated decades ago, combining Chinese and Western architectural styles.

  "Yes." Qin Ji smiled, with clear features, "Your bedroom is ready, I'll let you take a look."

  Chu Xiyu stood up and nodded, "Okay."

  He was kind of looking forward to what his room would look like.

  Qin Ji took him to the attic in the backyard of the ancient house. It was more luxurious than the attic in the front yard, with many embroidered barriers and bead curtains.

  "come in."

  Qin Ji took him to a bedroom on the east side of the attic. This bedroom was very large. It felt more like a master bedroom than a guest room.

  The furnishings in the bedroom are exquisite and have been carefully cleaned and decorated. It combines Chinese and Western elements and has a strong classical atmosphere, which is very much like the unique style of

  "So beautiful." Chu Xiyu walked into this bedroom and felt that it was a bit too grand.

  Qin Ji stood behind him, with an unclear look in his eyes, and said with a smile, "As long as you like it."

  "Welcome."

  Ayu.
