trange to Xiao Yu; it was already formed into an animal shape, resembling a cat.But the yin energy emanating from there belonged to humans, which puzzled Xiao Yu even more."Boom………."Xiao Yu was deep i...Chapter 192: Kim Soo-joo

They had initially thought that Xiao Yu had merely bought a high-rise apartment, but to their surprise, he gave them a pleasant shock. The property he purchased was actually a villa spanning over a thousand square meters.

Lu Jianhong also looked astounded. Although he knew his brother-in-law possessed significant influence, he never imagined Xiao Yu would buy such an expansive house. During the time he served as Wan Hongguang's secretary, he had seen and experienced much but was still amazed by this property; it was impossible to acquire in Shenzhen without spending tens of millions.

"Mom, Sister, Yunxi, please discuss how you would like to decorate!" Xiao Yu said to his mother and others.

Xiao Jianying and Xiao Yu didn't react much to this but Yunxi blushed slightly. Being consulted on the decoration clearly showed that Xiao Yu regarded her as part of the family.

Hearing this, they led Xiao Yu, Yunxi, and the staff from the decoration company around the villa. Since these professionals had valuable opinions, it was worth listening to their suggestions.

Xiao Yu stood in the living room with Lu Jianhong and Jin Xianglin, chatting casually. Hearing how well-spoken Lu Jianhong was, Jin Xianglin revealed a bit of surprise; he hadn't expected this man, who rarely spoke up, would possess such good breeding. But then again, why wouldn't Jingjie's choice be impeccable

Xiao Jianying and the others spent nearly two hours on their tour, discussing interior design styles as they walked through the entire villa.

As everyone strolled around talking, Xiao Jingruu occasionally offered opinions. Even Xiao Yu had selected her room upstairs while the heads of the decoration company trailed behind with pens and notebooks in hand, jotting down notes now and then.

"Mom, are you done" Upon seeing his mother return, Xiao Yu walked up to ask.

“Yes, almost. Do you want to see” Xiao Jianying nodded, addressing his son.

"No need. If you think it's good, then it is!"

Xiao Yu didn't really care about the house decoration as long as everyone was happy with their decision.

“Mr. Chen, Mr. Wang, please make a budget according to our family’s wishes and start work as soon as possible!” Xiao Yu turned to the two from the decoration company.

"Don't worry! Dr. Xiao, we'll finish the budget tonight if we put in some extra hours; we can begin construction tomorrow!" The duo assured him with nods.

“Okay, make sure to use quality materials. It’s fine if it costs more.” Xiao Yu nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry! Dr. Xiao! If there's nothing else, we'll go back and work out the budget!" The two people nodded in agreement.

"Alright, thank you both for your trouble!"

Xiao Yu wanted to decorate his house as soon as possible, so he agreed when they mentioned it.

“Sis Ying, stay at our place tonight! It will be more convenient to come here!” After Xiao Yu's family and Jin Xianglin, along with Xiao Jingru, left the villa, Jin Xianglin said this to Xiao Jianying.

"Little Jin, no need. Staying there is also very good; it’s part of your own property too, so it's not much different from staying at your place!"

Xiao Jianying thought about it and declined Jin Xianglin's suggestion. She still felt more convenient to stay in the antique city, plus Wan Shengtang was also there, and she wanted to be closer to it.

"Then... that works too. I'll follow Sis Ying’s advice, but tonight I’ll treat you and your family to dinner, Sis Ying can’t possibly refuse this!"

Jin Xianglin thought about it and indeed, the antique city was like his own place, so he didn't insist further but mentioned having dinner.

"Haha, how could I refuse You’ll go bankrupt feeding me!" Xiao Jianying chuckled.

Since it wasn’t yet meal time, Xiao Yu's family went to Jin Xianglin’s house.

In Jin Xianglin's living room, a girl in her early twenties, very thin and sitting on the sofa eating fruit, suddenly saw so many people come in. She stood up immediately and ran over to Xiao Jingru, looking curiously at these strangers.

When her gaze fell upon Xiao Yu, her eyes lit up. She walked over to him, a delighted look on her face as she said, "Brother Xiao Yu, thank you for saving my life!"

"Haha, no need to thank me, I'm a doctor; treating and saving lives is my duty," Xiao Yu said looking at the girl in front of him.

This girl, he had seen twice but never spoken with. The first time was when she fell ill and lost consciousness, and the second time was when Jin Xianglin needed to talk to him so Xiao Jingru brought her upstairs. This was their first formal meeting.

"Doctor Xiao, Sis Ying, this is my daughter Jin Xiuzhu!" Jin Xianglin pointed at his daughter and introduced her to Xiao Yu and Xiao Jianying.

“Xiuzhu, right You look very pretty!” Xiao Jianying complimented Jin Xiuzhu.

Xiao Jiaying looked at Jin Xianglin's daughter in front of her. Although the girl was very skinny, she could still see that she had a very delicate appearance.

"Thank you, Aunt!" Jin Soojeou smiled and said to Xiao Jiaying.

"Doctor Xiao, please sit down!" When Xiao Yu and the others reached the couch, Jin Soojeou quickly moved a cushion aside so that Xiao Yu could sit down.

"Thank you!"

After Xiao Yu sat down, Jin Soojeou smiled and sat down next to him, her face still holding a bashful smile.

The standing Yunxi suddenly felt a bit of animosity towards Jin Soojeou. She frowned as she looked at Jin Soojeou and Xiao Yu. She trusted her sixth sense very much.

However, Yunxi's frown soon eased away because there was no discomfort in her heart regarding Xiao Yu; instead, she felt a faint warmth and sweetness, indicating that Xiao Yu had good thoughts towards her and actually liked her deeply.

Yunxi remembered when they first met; she didn't hate Xiao Yu, but she also didn't feel the warmth or sweetness. This time was different as she not only didn't dislike Xiao Yu but felt a sense of joy, which was why she accepted him so readily.

In her past understanding of her sixth sense, she knew that if someone had bad intentions towards her, she would feel disgust in her heart, but now she realized her sixth sense could also give her feelings of sweetness and warmth.

Xiao Jiaying saw Jin Soojeou's behavior and frowned slightly. He glanced at Yunxi and seeing no problem with her, he relaxed a bit.

Jin Xianglin and Xiao Jingru were stunned when they saw their daughter’s appearance. They thought something must be wrong; as parents, they knew their own child well. Seeing Jin Soojeou's behavior told them that she had feelings for Xiao Yu.

No wonder since the last night when their daughter met Xiao Yu, she often inquired about his situation and whether he had a girlfriend or not.

Jin Xianglin hoped that Xiao Yu could be with their daughter. As an extraordinary person like Xiao Yu, even without money, he was someone to look up to; especially after knowing that Xiao Yu was Xiao Jiaying's son, Jin Xianglin thought the same.

But at the same time, they knew their daughter might be disappointed because now she could only hope that her daughter wouldn't get too involved.

Xiao Yu naturally sensed Jin Soojeou’s unusual behavior and understood what she meant. He was not a child after all.

"Mom, Mr. Jin, take a rest for a while. I will go out with Yunxi, as she has never been to the south."

Xiao Yu stood up and said, regarding Jin Xiu Zhu, he didn't want to leave any hope for the other party; otherwise, it would only hurt her more. At the same time, he didn't wish for Yun Xi to have any misunderstandings.

“Yun Xi, let’s go out for a walk!” Xiao Yu said to Yun Xi who was sitting on the sofa.

"Okay, it's just right to breathe in some fresh air!" Yun Xi stood up with a smile and said.

Even though she knew that there were no other intentions from Xiao Yu, seeing someone else blushing as they sat beside him and peeling fruit for him made her heart ache. She was also secretly angry, but when she heard what Xiao Yu had to say, all the anger vanished.

When leaving the house, although Yun Xi felt shy, she still held onto Xiao Yu's arm.

Jin Xiu Zhu saw their appearance; she held a peeled banana in her hand and blankly watched as Xiao Yu walked out of the door. The light in her eyes gradually dimmed.

Lowering her head, Jin Xiu Zhu secretly thought to herself: "What qualifications does she have to compete with me She doesn't look better than I do, nor is her body more attractive. Moreover, my family has money—money that could allow Xiao Yu to stop working hard for several decades. And what can she bring to Xiao Yu"

Thinking and thinking, Jin Xiu Zhu slowly lifted her head; no longer did she look gloomy but instead revealed a sense of excitement.

Miao Jian Ying frowned slightly when seeing the appearance of Jin Xiu Zhu. She somewhat knew about the psychology of these young ladies, so there was also some worry in her heart.

And Jin Xiang Lin and Xiao Jing Ru saw their daughter's gloomy expression; although they were a bit worried, they were also relieved to have ended her thoughts at this time, perhaps being the best choice.

However, seeing their daughter’s excited expression made them involuntarily jump with fear. They knew that their daughter wouldn’t take it lying down, but they feared that if she took extreme actions, something terrible would happen. It seemed like they needed to counsel her later on.

But they also had a fleeting thought: If my daughter could really snatch Xiao Yu away and make him her husband, it would be great! However, this idea was immediately extinguished; if their daughter couldn’t get Xiao Yu, she might become more deeply entangled in the matter. It’s better to put out this seedling idea at its earliest stage than let her suffer later.

The Dongyuan Villa community was a standard garden-style neighborhood with small bridges and running water scattered everywhere within it. Especially in the center of the villa community, there were all kinds of potted flowers and artistic stone carvings just like a park.

On a gravel path, holding hands, Xiao Yu looked at the woman beside him and said, “Yun Xi, I don’t have anything with that Jin Xiu Zhu!”

Since coming out of Jin Xiang Lin’s villa, Yun Xi had not spoken. Afraid that she would misunderstand, Xiao Yu quickly explained.e out of necessity for survival. Under the pressure of living, even if you dislike it, you still have to do it. Xiao Yu himself was no exception; he disliked medicine very much when he was young but h...
