Volume 1 Chapter 1: Meeting Grandfather

  "Wake up, the sun is shining! Wake up, the sun is shining!......" Bang! I ruthlessly knocked over the alarm clock that disturbed my appointment with Lord Zhou, and weakly got out of bed. In a daze, I rushed to the bathroom to wash up and changed into the clothes I had prepared last night.

  "Your heart has a wall, but I found a window. Occasionally, a warm and faint light seeps out. Even if you have a wall...". Hearing the familiar ringtone, I picked up the phone: "Hello?"

  “……”?

  "May I ask who is it?"

  “……”?

  "Speak up! If you don't, I'll hang up!" I was getting a bit impatient.

  "I..."?

  "Who are you?! I don't know who you are!" I angrily shouted into the phone.

  "Got it!"

  "Little brother, is that you! When talking to your sister on the phone, don't think it's okay to be silent like with outsiders." I sighed again after saying this.

  "I'm going to your house now, I'll be there in 5 minutes!"

  "Oh, then you might as well..." Just as I was thinking of dragging on and buying breakfast, the other party had already hung up the phone.

  I shook my head helplessly and muttered to myself: "Alas! My brother is still the same as before."

  To kill time while waiting for him, I walked alone to the balcony of my room. Standing on the balcony, I greedily sucked in the fresh morning air and enjoyed the warmth brought by the warm sunshine shining on me. Just as I was indulging in it, the doorbell rang at an untimely moment, and I ran to open the door impatiently: "Come in!"

  “……”?

  "Don't you have anything to say? Coming to my house so early isn't like you!" Looking at his calm and collected expression, I felt annoyed.

  But he seemed to realize I was a bit angry: "Grandpa asked me to come pick you up."

  "Grandpa? Why did he suddenly look for me, I haven't seen him in a long time."

  "Let's go!" Cheng said and pulled me into his car before I could even react.

  The atmosphere in the car was always very quiet, so quiet that it made me feel uneasy. I had a lot of questions in my mind: Why did Grandpa suddenly want to see me? What does this have to do with Cheng? Why did he ask Cheng to pick me up? Couldn't he just ask me to go myself?

  It seems that Cheng knew what was on my mind, and said: "Go ask your grandfather yourself." And I stared at him with wide eyes, the "O" shape of my mouth almost big enough to hold an egg.

  "Pfft!" Looking at my expression, Cheng finally couldn't help but burst out laughing.

  I turned my head to look at his handsome face, fair skin, and jet-black pupils shining like crystals, with a clear brow, a straight nose, and a perfectly smooth jawline. His silver hair set off his good looks. A white diamond earring on his left ear sparkled with dazzling light, fully revealing his icy temperament. Although I'm his sister and we almost meet every two or three days, I still can't help but take a few more glances. After all, it's my own brother, so why not?!

  Cheng seemed to sense that I was staring at him and turned around to glare at me.

  I pouted and turned my head to one side, no longer speaking, quietly watching the scenery outside the car window quickly slipping under my eyelids until it stopped in front of a white villa.
